Chapter 43: Game Launch 3

And what are these digital screens? They are similar to the semi-digitized worlds created in novels where everyone has a screen that only they can view, recording everything about them in great detail.

But there is no level-up system like in other novels. Instead, players have to increase their cultivation levels, similar to xinxia novels, where players need to cultivate and do their best to gain immortality.

This is not just in this world but is similar across all other races. They may call it differently or practice it in a different way, but they all have the same cultivation realms, which are:

Lower world:

Body Building 1-9

Foundation 1-9

Golden Core 1-9

Nascent Soul 1-9

Incarnation 1-9

Middle world:

Voidbreak 1-9

Wholeness 1-9

Perfection 1-9

Nirvana 1-9

'In my last life, it took me about a day and a half to reach the peak body-building stage' Xu Qianghua thought as he watched the intro clip to the game.

Usually, any cultivator takes from a few years to a decade to complete the body-building stage and then tries to challenge the bottleneck toward the foundation realm.

So why did it take Xu Qianghua only a day and a half? The game time is sped up, so an hour in real-time is about a month in the game.

If the game is online for 3 days, which is 72 hours, that means 72 months or 6 years have passed in the game.

Calculated, Xu Qianghua spent 36 months to finish the body-building stage, which is fast considering the game world is still a lower world and a new one at that.

He didn't spend a lot of money on the game at that time. This was also due to the pills and other heavenly materials that helped speed up the process.

As for Liu Meiying, Liu Anwei, and the maids who were with him? They took a little more time than him, around 4 to 5 months, as there weren't many pills and heavenly materials available.

But in this life, he planned to empty the game mall so he would be more prepared. As a bonus, each mall is individual, meaning all the low-level items like pills and low-level heavenly materials are available in certain amounts per individual.

So Xu Qianghua and his group can stock up on these materials for themselves or future family members to cultivate faster.

This doesn't include the special rare items like Platinum and above Family tokens and other tokens needed to create a legitimate force in the new world.

These items are rare and synchronized across all the malls, meaning if someone buys them, they're gone.

Xu Qianghua plans to clear out his and all the ladies' shops of these items, then buy the rare items they need today and all the leftover rare items on the last day to avoid wasting them after the game merges.

Why don't we buy all of the rare items? It's simple. He doesn't want to hoard all these items and act like those protagonists in novels who think they're keeping them safe from bad people who might exploit them.

This is stupid because if they are bad people, they will find ways to get these items. They're not stupid enough to buy items from the game without knowing their value.

The only people who would buy these items are rich second generations who like games or some stupid people who accidentally bought them.
