This is a cultivation game, but its operation is terrible.

No, he is the protagonist!

"The plot of episodes 1-6 involves a wedding robbery. After successfully robberizing the bride, am I supposed to go to the bridal chamber?"

Jiang Liu thought to himself, his heart pounding, his mind flashing with images unsuitable for children.

This is a cultivation game, so even if there are 18+ scenes, no one can do anything about it, right?

Jiang Liu took a breath and tried the 1-6 storyline a few more times, but still couldn't beat it. He gritted his teeth, turned around and went out to buy the [First Recharge Stage 4]!

If you can't beat them, just spend money. Isn't that how games are played?

[First Recharge Stage 4]: One random mid-level spell, 40 Qi Refining Pills, and the title 'Getting Better and Better'.

The skill has been granted!

Jiang Liu was startled. He opened his backpack, casually put on the title, and then looked at the skill book.

【Blowing Fire Palm】: Intermediate-level spell, condenses fire-type spiritual energy into the palm, limited to use by those with fire-type spiritual roots.

Without hesitation, he learned the Fire-Blowing Palm technique and swallowed all 40 pills, raising his cultivation level to the fourth level of Qi Refining (824/8000).

He now only has 23 Qi Refining Pills left from the limited-purchase gift pack in his backpack, which is not enough for him to continue breaking through.

After learning the skills and leveling up, Jiang Liu rushed back to the 1-6 storyline.

[Victory!]

[Gained cultivation points...]

The story continues, but instead of a wedding night between him and the city lord's daughter, the city lord's daughter dies in his arms.

[You defeated the Lingyun Sect disciple, causing the sect to lose face. A senior brother from the Lingyun Sect who was attending the wedding attacked you. The young girl took the blow for you and died in your arms, saying in her last moments that she was happy to know you.]

Jiang Liu was completely numb and it took him several minutes to recover.

"What rubbish plot! I'm never watching it again!"

Jiang Liu cursed and switched to the Immortal Cultivation Era. "Damn it, the first chapter is already angsty. Fine, I'm not reading it anymore. I'll skip it from now on."

This game is garbage, even a dog wouldn't play it unless they wanted to cultivate immortality!

Chapter 6 Mosaic Robe

Even after Jiang Liu exited the Immortal Cultivation Era, he became increasingly angry, the game's plot replaying uncontrollably in his mind. The aftereffects were too strong, even causing his constantly running Absorption Technique to stop.

"call."

Jiang Liu let out a long sigh of relief, slightly dispelling the frustration in his heart. He reached out and patted Li Dongze on the table next to him, asking, "What level of the story have you completed?"

Li Dongze was still immersed in the world of cultivation when he heard the voice beside him. He turned to look at Jiang Liu with a smile and asked, "How did you know I've progressed to level 1-4?"

With a first-time recharge and a magic artifact, he connected through four levels and officially entered the first level of Qi Refining. Now, he was floating.

Do you know that I've progressed to stage 1-7 in the story?

Jiang Liu ignored his smug look and asked in a low voice, "Were you also born in Tongmu Village, Chilian Divine Continent?"

"Yes."

Li Dongze asked in confusion, "What's wrong?"

"It's alright now."

Jiang Liu shook his head, feeling both disappointed and relieved. The scenes were so realistic that he couldn't help but wonder if it was even real.

Thankfully, that's not the case. Each character was born in Tongmu Village, but that tiny, run-down village couldn't possibly accommodate so many people!

It's good that it's fake, it's good that it's fake. It's just a pity that the city lord's daughter would have to die billions of times over...

Do you know what magical artifact I received as my first recharge bonus?

Li Dongze said nervously, unable to contain his desire to show off.

"What were you given?"

Jiang Liu asked curiously.

"Watch closely, I'm about to sync my game character!"

Li Dongze sat up straight, and three seconds later his aura suddenly changed, releasing a faint sense of pressure.

"Did you see that! Did you see that!"

Li Dongze jumped up onto the desk, spun around in front of Jiang Liu, and exclaimed excitedly, "The robe! It's the robe!"

"Hahaha, this robe is so cool!"

Jiang Liu was taken aback, his expression extremely strange, and then he chuckled, "Is your robe called Mosaic?"

"what?"

Li Dongze was slightly taken aback, and subconsciously looked down. He froze as if struck by lightning, his face turning bright red. He roared, "Damn it, I've found a bug!"

His jacket and jeans had disappeared, replaced by a white mosaic, from which one could vaguely make out that it was a white robe.

It's just that this is the mosaic version now.

The other students were also attracted by Li Dongze's commotion, and they burst out laughing when they turned around and saw what was going on.

"Hahaha, Ze-ge, are you wearing a mosaic on your body?"

"This is possible? Even the equipment has bugs!"

"Can this robe still be worn outside? Should we take it off?"

"Thankfully, at least his face wasn't turned into a mosaic."

Li Dongze's face turned green. He had been laughing at Jiang Liu for being unable to enter the game due to a bug, but now it was his turn.

"What should we do, teacher?"

He looked to his homeroom teacher for help.

The homeroom teacher calmly said, "It's normal for a newly opened server to have some bugs; they'll probably be fixed soon."

As soon as he finished speaking, Chen Ke added calmly, "This is a texture bug. The texture of this magic weapon is invalid. It's just a low-grade magic weapon. It's insignificant in such a huge game project. The programmers are probably too lazy to fix it."

Li Dongze: "......"

Li Dongze sat back down at his desk, his face ashen, all traces of his earlier smugness gone. He was seething with anger and couldn't help but curse, "This garbage game!"

The other students also realized that this cultivation era seemed rather unreliable.

Just a few hours after the server opened, in a class of over thirty people, two people encountered a bug...

Is this game even playable?

It's still playable; what can you do when it's a cultivation game?

The Immortal Cultivation Era started during the first period in the afternoon. A few hours passed, and a day flew by. The school bell rang, signaling the end of the school day.

"Don't play games, read books, or sleep after school."

The homeroom teacher instructed, "Spend more time cultivating. Everyone is on the same starting line. The longer you cultivate, the faster your realm will improve."

"If you don't use your time for entertainment and sleep to cultivate, what are you talking about cultivating immortality for?"

"With daily practice and consistent effort, your teacher believes you will all successfully ascend to higher realms!"

The homeroom teacher was really afraid that they would run wild after school, so she kept pouring chicken soup into their mouths.

It's no wonder he was so worried. Even he was getting a little impatient meditating for several hours straight, let alone the students.

Jiang Liu had originally planned to go straight home, but as soon as he stepped out of the school gate, Li Dongze called out to him: "Jiang Liu, let's go to the internet cafe and play a few rounds."

Jiang Liu: "??????"

Is that something you play in internet cafes?

Both of them were not good at studying and were game enthusiasts. They often went to internet cafes after school. The generous and magnanimous Li Dongze often treated him to internet cafe fees and drinks. They had a really good relationship.

"Aren't you going back to meditate and cultivate yourself?"

Jiang Liu asked him.

"I can't sit still anymore, I can't sit still anymore."

Li Dongze waved his hand dismissively, saying, "Even a day of cultivating the Qi Refining Technique only requires a few Qi Refining Pills. Do you think I'm lacking that much?"

"Play with me for a while, and I'll give you a few Qi Refining Pills later!"

Those who are rich and powerful are just that arrogant. While others are poor when they open a server, he is a super-rich player, so he is naturally different. Even his cultivation is one step ahead of others.

"No need, let's walk."

Jiang Liu thought to himself, "You don't care about this little bit, but do I care about a 0.1 discount?"

I ate over a hundred Qi Refining Pills today!

The two excitedly entered the internet cafe, which was usually packed with people but was empty today. The owner was sitting behind the counter, practicing his cultivation, and was surprised to see them.

Is this game so addictive that you've even given up cultivating immortality?

After playing for more than two hours, Jiang Liu returned home.

As soon as I entered the door, I saw a stack of banknotes on the coffee table in the living room. After picking them up and counting them, I found that there were actually 10,000 yuan. A bad feeling immediately rose in my heart.

"Sir, where did the money on the table come from?"

Although this is a parallel world, nothing has changed except for the "Cultivation Era". He is still an orphan, his grandmother died early, and he and his grandfather depend on each other for survival.

Similar to the game's main character...

A dozen seconds later, an old man with a hunched back, white hair, and a wrinkled face came out of the house and said to Jiang Liu with a happy smile, "Liu Liu, we've really struck gold today!"

“This afternoon, someone came to our house to collect stones. I was wondering what they were. The man talked a lot and taught me a lot, but in the end, I still didn’t see what kind of stones they were.”

"Do you think I've lost my mind? Why am I playing movies on my own?"

Jiang Liu: "......"

Jiang Liu's heart sank after hearing this; the five spirit stones he received as a sign-in reward had been stolen!

Ah, it wasn't a scam. They bought it at market price, so calling the police didn't help.

That won't work either, I'm still waiting to use it!
