Chapter 208: 208, [Everything is the Fault of the Heavenly Dao] (Asking for Monthly Tickets!)

Translator: 549690339

Outside of Plum City, countless gamers were scattered around. Many of them began frantically taking screenshots and recording videos the moment White Emperor appeared.

White Emperor’s popularity had skyrocketed. Any post related to the White Emperor would draw a lot of attention in the forum.

However, what the players hadn’t expected was that they would be lucky enough to capture such a miraculous scene!

― A deity descending to mortals!

If this isn’t what a deity descending to mortals looks like, then what is?

The moment his feet hit the ground, the plum blossoms around him bloomed!

This was truly a miracle in human life!

“Can we also do this if we continue playing?” One player, mouth agape, asked in disbelief.

“Will I be that cool in the future? Just making palms bloom whenever I say so!?” Clearly, this ‘imagination freak’ was getting ahead of himself.

“An NPC with just a yellow name is already this terrifying?” A player marveled.

Lu Xun looked at the blooming plum blossoms and smiled faintly.

Then, he slipped the green pearl he had been keeping in his palm into his storage ring.

It had to be said that this pearl was quite useful. At the very least, it was pretty impressive when used on such occasions.

The players scattered around began moving towards White Emperor to form an orderly queue. They behaved even better than they did in the real world.

After all, according to descriptions in the forum, White Emperor appeared to be a man who greatly valued rules and order. If any commotion was caused, he would be displeased.

If they angered him, their favorability would decrease, and they wouldn’t be able to learn the skills.

Standing next to the plum blossom, Lu Xun took the wine jar from the players’ hands and harvested wave after wave of experience points.

Whenever he saw a familiar name, he would open the wine jar, take a sniff, take a sip, and while cursing in his heart about how terrible the wine tasted, he would loudly comment, “Good wine!”

Those who were praised by him had their favorability increased by 5 points and were then given the chance to learn the Qi Consumption Technique.

Among the players recruited by Lu Xun into the Demon Sect, some were already famous professional players, while others were not yet widely known but would become famous in the future.

Just like Han Bagui, who he had previously recruited. At this point, he didn’t have a guild or a club backing him, but his gameplay in the end stages of the game was ferocious!

Hence, his selective offer of opportunities shouldn’t raise any suspicions.

To outsiders, it even seemed as though there was no pattern behind his choices.

It seemed as though it all just came down to luck?

When it came to choosing players, Lu Xun would prioritize those with solid capabilities.

For example, tactical masterminds like the deceitful lolita Cai Jiangjiang.

After all, some players only shine in the later stages of the game, perhaps because they have had many lucky encounters or because they possess strong equipment or cultivation techniques, and belong to the category of “strong accounts, weak players”.

Lu Xun wouldn’t consider these types of players. After all, once they get to know him, their future paths would change, and who knows if they will still have those lucky encounters?

Furthermore, the public test was a year ahead of schedule. The future was unpredictable.

People with outstanding individual abilities were a bit more reliable and thus worth adding to the standby… Oops! I mean the investment list!

From another perspective, as the young elder of the Demon Sect, backed by the Transmission Tower and Hidden Mountain, and given his advantages as an NPC, he needn’t worry about not being able to train players.

Of course, there might be potential stocks among the crowd that he doesn’t recognize, and he might miss some people, but there’s nothing he can do about that.

Stability is the priority. One can’t be too greedy. He can’t possibly have all the talented people in the game serve under him, right? fɾeeweɓnѳveɭ.com

That would be too much hard work. His body wouldn’t be able to handle it!

At this moment, Lu Xun continued accepting wine and harvesting the hard-earned experience points of the players.

He actually found it quite hard. It was mainly the emotional restraint that was exhausting.

In his previous life, he stirred up a lot of trouble in “Heavenly Dust”. As long as the payment was enough, he would take on almost any job, not refusing any offer.

― He was like a emotionless money-making machine.

The familiar nicknames present at the scene were familiar because he had had some sort of dealings with a few of them. Most of them had been beaten badly by him, wailing in agony due to his ruthless attacks.

Some were even killed by him so many times that their respawn count was depleted…

As the saying goes, wherever there are people, there are conflicts.

Although “Heavenly Dust” was just a game, the friendships, grudges, and enmity within it were quite complex. As for Lu Xun, he was just doing jobs for money to provide a better life for his sister.

“Let’s call it even with all the debts and gratitude of the past life. I will treat everyone equally in this life,” Lu Xun thought, as he sweeped his gaze across everyone present.

From today onwards, you are all daddy’s favorite tools. You are the most favored bootlickers here.

Over these few days, Lu Xun was busy collecting experience points and recruiting talents, and the chain reaction brought about by a large influx of players began to sweep through the entire Heavenly Dust Continent.

The shock waves were not only impacting the secular world but the cultivation world as well.

The great sects of the cultivation world who were always paying attention to events on the continent would have definitely heard the news of a large number of anomalies appearing.

Perhaps due to the manipulation of some invisible ‘big hand,’ the cultivators on the Heavenly Dust Continent didn’t bear much hostility towards the players. However, they were still adopting a wait-and-watch approach.

This was mainly credited to the players being identified as mutated anomalies rather than being defined as invaders or outsiders, like the foreign races.

Sect Master Shen Yan and a few peak masters sat on Demon Sect’s Main Peak, discussing this matter.

“Sect Master, have you been to the back mountain? What did the master say?” Yue Heshan was the first to ask.

“The master said that the oddities of the heaven and earth we saw that day led to all of this.” Shen Yan’s face was slightly stern, and there was reverence in his eyes.

The higher one’s cultivation base, the stronger one’s power, and the more one revered nature, understanding their own insignificance.

Luo Wanqiu furrowed her pretty phoenix brows and asked, “By the master, you mean… because of the hole that opened in the sky and the light that nobody could look directly at?”

Shen Yan nodded his head, then uttered a word that made everyone’s complexions change drastically:

“The master said that day’s celestial phenomenon was… a Heavenly Dao Collapse!”

“What!” Even the usually composed Sima Chuan cried out in shock.

For cultivators, these four words were incredibly shocking.

Heavenly Dao, that’s the Heavenly Dao!

Could the Heavenly Dao also have problems?

If Lu Xun were present, his expression would definitely be complicated.

He would inevitably be thinking in his heart, “So, the concept of Heavenly Dao Collapse was proposed by the master…”

Shen Yan looked at everyone and said solemnly, “Actually, if you think about it carefully, the master isn’t wrong.”

“The Heavenly Dao encompasses all the rules of the world, like a tree sprouting new leaves in spring and shedding leaves in autumn… But look at the anomalies in the world now. They seem to be outside of these rules.”

With a furrowed brow, Shen Yan added, “Or should we say, they are under a different set of rules?”

All the peak masters pondered upon this, and upon thinking, it indeed seemed like there was an issue with the Heavenly Dao.

So, everything was Heavenly Dao’s fault?
