When I write a bug it becomes the core gameplay.

Chapter 607: Martial Arts Competition
Chen Tingquan thought about it and decided to use regular elixirs first.

Although the Nine Dragon Pills are said to be very powerful, they also have strong side effects.

He wanted to make a simple comparison. If the cultivation speed using regular elixirs was acceptable and not much slower than that of Nine Dragon Elixirs, then he would use Nine Dragon Elixirs as little as possible.

Because whether it was this special "Internal Organs" page or the repeatedly mentioned side effects, they all made him subconsciously feel that this Nine Dragon Pill must have problems and penalties. For a poor player like him, it is better to use it less.

“First, do some physical training, such as wooden stake training and stone lock training.

“Then practice gathering your energy and meditate in the training room.

"Meditate for a while longer to increase my magic power, and today's training task will be almost done.

"During this process, we must also conduct sufficient tests to see how big the difference is between practicing without taking medicine, practicing with basic pills, and practicing with Nine Dragon Pills."

Because the time flow ratio between the game and reality is 7:1, so in fact, in the game, about 3 hours is one day.

Taking into account that players cannot be online 24 hours a day, the game has very considerately prepared a "timed drug taking" function for players.

Players only need to set up their daily training plan and make sure there are enough elixirs and spirit stones in their luggage, and the character can practice automatically.

The training in the game consists of several different mini-games.

The wooden stake training is a bit like a novice combat tutorial. There are several wooden stakes in the venue, and these stakes will attack automatically.

Players need to choose different response methods according to the different attacks of the wooden stakes, such as dodging, parrying, counterattacking, etc.

The wooden stake moves will change every day, and the number of wooden stakes attacked will also change and increase randomly.

After players complete all the training, they can significantly improve their physical fitness and become more familiar with the game's combat system.

Stone lock training is a simple strength training. The character will lift the stone lock in various ways in the picture to stimulate the muscles all over the body.

There will be an action bar in the game. The action bar randomly refreshes a small area as the optimal power balance range. This balance range will constantly change, sometimes to the left and sometimes to the right.

When the player presses the button, the power pointer on the far left of the action bar will move to the right, indicating that the character is exerting force. When the button is released, the power pointer will quickly fall back to the left.

Players need to control the strength pointer within this optimal strength balance range, otherwise the stone lock may fall to the ground, or the character may lose balance due to excessive force.

The difficulty of these two mini-games will gradually increase with the game time and the player's level.

However, for levels that players have already passed, they can choose to complete them automatically.

If players are bored, they don't have to play every day and can leave it to the system.

As for sitting meditation and contemplation, the two are similar, but the effects are different. Sitting meditation is to gather Qi, which is a necessary condition for leveling up, from practicing Qi to building foundation. It can be understood as a pure level increase and numerical increase, and it can be said to be the most important training project; while meditation is to improve mental strength and mana, to ensure that your mana can release some basic spells and control simple magic weapons.

Of course, players can also let the system automatically solve both of these gameplay methods.

Before taking the pill, Chen Tingquan also carefully looked at the training efficiency of this game.

According to the instructions in the game, in the game "Against the Heaven's Path", even if the player is not online, the character will automatically practice according to the pre-made plan.

But there are several different efficiency ranges in daily practice.

In the game, every 24 hours (12 hours) is a day, which corresponds to a little more than 3 hours in reality.

During a day of gaming time, there are 2 hours in the optimal practice range, 6 hours in the general practice range, and 16 hours in the inefficient practice range.

The efficiency of these three cultivation ranges is 4:2:1 respectively.

Players must be online to enjoy the "best practice zone".

However, its time can be accumulated and extended. 24 hours in reality is equal to 7 days in the game, so players can accumulate up to 7 best training intervals together, which is about 2 hours in reality.

This system looks a little complicated, but to put it simply, if you want to achieve the best training efficiency, then players should be online for 2 hours every day to consume the 4 times training effect accumulated in the best training range.

Otherwise, your cultivation progress will suffer a small loss.

In addition, there is one more point: when players use the Nine Dragon Pill, they can ignore the optimal training range. In other words, no matter what state the player is in, as long as they take the Nine Dragon Pill, the effect of the Nine Dragon Pill will be calculated.

Chen Tingquan conducted a simple test according to the original plan.

In 2 hours of game time, which is about 15 minutes in real time, he can do several basic trainings. In these trainings, he tested the effects of not taking drugs, using basic pills, and using Nine Dragon Pills.

The improved value after body training can be roughly calculated.

The test results surprised him.

If the training effect without taking pills is 1, then the training effect after using basic pills is about 2 times, and the training effect after using Nine Dragon Pills is 4 times.

There is another very important point: the Nine Dragon Pill does not actually rely on the effects of this optimal training range.

In other words, if you take Nine Dragon Pills in the low-efficiency training range, your training efficiency will be 16 times that of not taking pills and 8 times that of basic pills!
"That's a bit too much, doesn't that mean Krypton is invincible?
"If we max out the Nine Dragon Pills 24 hours a day, wouldn't it be impossible for ordinary players to catch up?" "It seems like we still have to find a way to make money and get the Nine Dragon Pills."

Chen Tingquan once again felt the temptation of the golden recharge interface.

The key is that this interface is not only for recharging, but also for continuing to take out loans.

If you take out a loan, you can directly obtain these highly effective Nine Dragon Pills even without paying any money.

Chen Tingquan tried hard to hold back and decided to see how the daily combat competitions and large map explorations were played.

If you can make stable money in the game and buy Nine Dragon Pills, you don’t actually need to top up money or take out a loan.

The first is daily combat competition.

This system is a bit like a random battle copy. After the player comes to the arena, several waves of monsters will be automatically refreshed on the arena.

The strength of these monsters will increase gradually. At the beginning, they are just simple beasts, then bandits imprisoned in the sect, and then other disciples of the sect.

According to the game setting of "Against the Heaven's Will", the laws of this world are still effective and all major sects must abide by them.

Therefore, bandits and criminals in the world are almost extinct, because according to the law, once these bandits and criminals are caught by disciples of the major sects, they can be killed without mercy.

Large sects like the Henggang Sect would often send disciples down the mountain to train. If they happened to catch bandits and criminals, they would be sent up the mountain and locked up, leaving them for the weaker disciples to practice with and improve their practical experience.

At the beginning, Chen Tingquan enjoyed the game quite a lot.

It has to be said that after completing the previous training tasks, his character attributes have improved significantly.

It was originally a bit easy to be defeated when fighting these ferocious beasts. For example, the giant bear had a naturally strong body and strong attack power. When he encountered it while hunting before, he had to fight it very carefully, otherwise he would be defeated if he was not careful.

Of course, the character's attributes are there, so he won't die, but escaping in a hurry is always inevitable.

But now, after Chen Tingquan's character attributes have been comprehensively upgraded, he can kill several bears very easily and mindlessly.

Although these bandits and criminals were armed with sharp knives and coordinated with each other from a distance, Chen Tingquan basically beat them like chopping melons and vegetables.

The action system of "Against the Heavens" is quite solid. The forward and backward swings of each action are very reasonable, and the actions are also quite beautiful and powerful.

Therefore, even though Chen Tingquan doesn’t know any spells or magic weapons yet, and only uses the simplest sword moves, he can still fight very comfortably.

As another group of bandits were knocked down, the next wave of opponents appeared.

The name is "First-year disciple of Henggang Sect".

"Hmm? A first-year disciple? Then he is about the same level as me.

"It's certain that his attributes are higher than mine, but I have some skills. With a little manipulation, it may not be impossible...

"Oh shit, how come I was killed in one second!"

Chen Tingquan had seen on the notice board in the sect before that the disciples here can be roughly divided into three different levels according to their years of service, namely one-year disciples, ten-year disciples and hundred-year disciples.

Of course there are people with stronger strength above them, but they are generally not called disciples.

A one-year disciple refers to a disciple who has been practicing for less than one year. Every disciple will be assessed after practicing for one year.

You can stay here only after you reach the third level of Qi Refining. Otherwise, you will be expelled from the sect, and your path to immortal cultivation will be completely cut off. You will have to work in the human world to repay your debts for the rest of your life.

Similarly, disciples who have been in the sect for ten years must complete foundation building, and disciples who have been in the sect for a hundred years must complete core formation, otherwise they will also be expelled from the sect.

Strictly speaking, Chen Tingquan is now also considered a first-year disciple.

As first-year disciples, there were actually some differences between them. Chen Tingquan was only at the most basic first-year Qi Refining Level, but theoretically, some outstanding first-year disciples might have already reached the third level of Qi Refining and passed the assessment in advance.

Chen Tingquan originally thought, isn't it just the difference between the first and third levels of Qi Refining? There's a difference of two levels, at most your attributes are higher than mine, but this game still has a lot of action elements, you can dodge, block, and there are GP means, if you fight better, you may not be unable to win.

As a result, the other person fainted as soon as the fight started. The opponent raised his hand and took out a magic weapon, which seemed to be a small mirror. He reflected the other person and he disappeared.

Fortunately, this was just a sparring match. He was only beaten to the point where only a trace of blood was left and he knelt down and begged for mercy, but he didn't really die.

"No buddy, this isn't the way to force money!"

Chen Tingquan was a little angry. He felt that this game might continue to force people to spend money, but even if it did, there had to be some basic rules!
You choose an enemy with doubled attributes to fight me, and then I try my best but cannot defeat him. I can win by spending a little bit of money, and maybe I get angry and spend money.

But now, I was killed instantly, I am so helpless!

exasperating!
