This is a cultivation game, but the operation is bad

Chapter 225 The Promising Future of the Third District, the Final Stage of the Event, World Boss—The Overturning Dragon!
【resurrection】

This phase has ended. Would you like to proceed to the third phase?

【resurrection!!!】

This phase has ended.

Poison King: "!!!!!!!"

How could he die at the last second?!

One second he was filled with fervor, having fought a grueling 150-hour battle and emerged victorious, becoming one of the final two winners.

Although more than two thousand Golden Core cultivators in the Third District had been killed and were lying dead, as long as he was there, it wasn't considered a defeat. He successfully upheld the dignity of the Third District.

But in the very next second, in that final second, he relaxed his guard, and his nerves, which had been on edge for over 150 hours, loosened slightly.

Then, everything vanished, as if the six-plus days of fierce fighting had been utterly worthless.

Was the dignity of District Three still trampled underfoot by the other side?
Waaaaah, no!

I cannot accept this result!
I want to spend money! Let me be resurrected!
As if the last straw had broken the camel's back, the Poison King collapsed, his soul lying on his own tombstone, howling in agony.

He broke down when he failed to uphold the dignity of the Third District.

The system's announcement, however, was like a thousand arrows piercing his already broken heart, leaving it riddled with holes.

[The three zones collectively acquired 0 rare materials and 0 rare treasures, earning 0 points]

[The four districts collectively acquired 20 rare materials and 40 rare treasures, earning 40 points.]

He was jolted awake by the system notification, snapping out of his daze from the endless carnage.

What kind of event is this?
The Battle for Rare and Precious Treasures!
And what are they doing?
Driven by revenge, personal motives, and a desire for dignity, he led over two thousand of the region's top Golden Core players to ambush and kill a single individual.

The price to pay is that you return empty-handed from the second phase of the event!

What's most infuriating is that they surrounded them, killed them, but still lost!
In a PK (player versus player) match, I didn't manage to Photoshop the opponent into a dog.

In the treasure hunt, they didn't get a single item; the fourth district took them all.

So what exactly were we doing during this second phase of the event, which lasted for more than six days?
The Poison King was lost; he could no longer feel the meaning of life.

The second phase of the event, which lasted for seven days, revealed to only a very few people on the map of the vast sea that a fierce battle had taken place there.

It was a great battle between a Golden Core cultivator and more than two thousand Golden Core cultivators. The battle was so fierce that the heavens and earth collapsed, the seas dried up, and the sky darkened.

In the end, there will only be one winner.

The second phase of the event has ended.

"Huh? It's all done?"

Upon hearing the system's voice in his mind, Jiang Liu finally stopped mechanically swinging his sword. His lifeless eyes were filled with confusion, and his pale face was etched with deep fatigue. His hand, which had been tightly gripping the Meteor Falling Sword, slumped limply, and the fire sword slowly fell into the deep sea.

I am mentally and physically exhausted.

He didn't hear what the system said clearly, nor did he care to listen.

All he knew was that it was over.

Waaah, it's finally over!

Jiang Liu was almost in tears. By the third day, he couldn't keep going anymore. It was so tiring to keep killing monsters, a hundred times more tiring than killing monsters!
I was full of energy on the first day, but I was a little tired on the second day, and I couldn't hold on any longer on the third day.

The reason they were able to keep cutting for more than six days in a row was because of their determination and their unwavering spirit.

Why would I make harsh statements before the war even begins?
In the days that followed, he couldn't help but ask himself these questions.

If I hadn't made those threats, he would have run away after two or three days of beatings. What normal person could beat someone for six days straight?

In the end, he forced himself into it.

but
Win!

I won!

More than two thousand Golden Core cultivators were cut down, and the number dwindled until they were all turned into tombstones!
This is a victory that belongs to him alone!
But for some reason, I couldn't get excited; my heart was completely unmoved, and I didn't feel any emotional fluctuation.

He was numb.

Automatic battle mode, exit.

Exit the idle mode.

"call"

Jiang Liu stood there for several minutes before his numb expression and eyes regained some sparkle. He let out a long breath and then looked around.

The tombstones everywhere are all his masterpieces.

He took a difficult step forward, walking slowly until he reached the Poison King's tombstone. He stepped on it, looked down at the tombstone, panted, and said weakly, "Do you submit?"

How dare you step on my tombstone?!

you wanna die!
【resurrection! 】

[This stage]

The Poison King was furious, but he no longer had the strength to be angry. He took a deep breath, forcibly suppressing his turbulent emotions, and said in a calm and even tone, "I have to admit that you are stronger now."

"However, your strength is only temporary. Cultivation is about realm, not combat power."

"You can't imagine how fast we Fallen Demon players level up. This time, you're facing more than two thousand Golden Core cultivators. Next time, you'll be facing more than twenty thousand Nascent Soul cultivators."

"The next time, you will face more than 200,000 Nascent Soul cultivators!"

"At that time, will you be at the Golden Core stage, or the Nascent Soul stage?"

He had to admit that he was shocked by Jiang Liu's combat prowess.

Is it possible for a human to cut down more than two thousand Golden Core cultivators at the same cultivation level?

Even if Cultivation Era is a pay-to-win game, isn't this a bit too outrageous? We're players too, not monsters!

Despite being frightened, he showed no fear, for he firmly believed that Jiang Liu's victory was only temporary.

A moment of glory is not true glory, a moment of shame is not true shame; only those who win in the end are the true champions.

You're strong, but so what?
We upgrade fast!
If I can't beat you at the same level, then I'll jump to a higher level!

One major realm isn't enough? Then go all out and level up, skipping two major realms!
Two major realms are not enough?

Then let's have a district-wide collective report.

As they continue to cultivate demonic techniques, the leveling speed of these fallen demon players will become faster and faster, and catching up with the first and second servers will only be a matter of minutes.

The future is promising, and this is not just empty talk.

Their goal in the three districts is not Jiang Liu, nor in the first or second districts, but the Immortal Cultivation Era!

Their ultimate goal in the three districts is to overthrow the righteous path in the worldview of the cultivation era!

Reclaim the glory of the Demonic Path, only the players of Server 3 can do it!
A temporary setback is nothing, and a crazy player is nothing either.

With hundreds of millions of players, this guy can't cause any real trouble.

Although the Poison King was lying down, his head was still held high, and his spirit remained steadfast.

Jiang Liu, you've won this time, but you're nothing to fear!
Jiang Liu: “.”

"It chattered on and on, but I didn't understand a single word it said."

Jiang Liu picked at his ear, his face full of impatience. He kicked the tombstone and sneered, "Stop talking nonsense to me. I'm just asking you three districts, do you submit or not!"

Is cultivation about spiritual realm rather than combat power?
Haha, I didn't know how ridiculously fast the leveling speed of players in the game was, but you also have no idea how ridiculously fast the leveling speed of players who spend money on in-game purchases is.

"Clothes?"

The Poison King's veins bulged, and he took a long breath. His previously calm face instantly became ferocious, and he opened his mouth to curse, "I'll give you a piece of my mind!"

"Just you wait! We, the Third District, will remember this humiliation! We swear we will not rest until we avenge this!"

"The next time we break through to the Nascent Soul stage, that will be the day you die without a burial place!"

"Murderer! Demon! Pervert! Inhuman! Die!"

After unleashing a string of curses in one breath, he teleported directly to the third phase of the event before Jiang Liu could retaliate, leaving Jiang Liu standing there bewildered in the wind.

You're getting anxious, you're getting anxious.

If you can't beat someone in a fight, you start flaming them. You've lost your temper, haven't you?
whee.

"Aren't you convinced?"

Jiang Liu murmured to himself, watching a large number of tombstones disappear into the distance, a cold smile appearing on his face.

next time?
Do we have to wait for the next time?

After the event ends, I'll go to the Immortal Alliance and request permission to attack Gengjin Divine Continent. I'll then go on a rampage against you fallen demon players!
To vanquish evil and uphold justice, only Jiang Liu will do it!

We're launching a cross-state attack, using you as practice targets first, to prepare for our entry into the Central State after reaching the Nascent Soul stage and engaging in chaotic battles with players from other regions in the cultivation world!

This phase has ended. Would you like to proceed to the third phase?

【Yes】

"Let's take a break in the third stage. Hopefully, this final stage will be a bit easier; I'm completely exhausted."

A beam of white light descended from the sky and enveloped Jiang Liu's body.

next second.

He has been teleported to the third stage.

It's still the same map of the Immortal Spirit Sea, but the coordinates are now at the very center of the map.

All around, there were countless overlapping players in a virtual state.

The third phase of the cross-server event "Battle for Natural Treasures," titled "Sea Dragon," is about to begin. Players are advised to prepare for battle. Please check the event page for detailed event information.

Sea dragon?

Upon hearing the name of the third phase of the event, Jiang Liu's exhausted heart suddenly skipped a few beats.

Is the final stage dragon hunting?

That's awesome! Slaying monsters is way more fun than slaying people!
I want to slay monsters! I want to hunt dragons! I want to be a dragon slayer!

Help me up, I can fight for another 6 days!
He regained a bit of fighting spirit and immediately opened the event interface.

【Sea Dragon】

[Event Introduction: Numerous cultivators have been plundering rare and precious materials in the Immortal Spirit Sea, conquering various demon islands and turning the once peaceful Immortal Spirit Sea into a bloodbath. This has alarmed the dragon beast, the Overturning Sea Dragon, which has long slumbered in the depths of the sea. It has sensed the presence of rare and precious materials and will seize them from the cultivators.]

[Event Details: Defeat the World-Class Boss—Overturning Sea Dragon (Golden Core Perfection). Upon successful defeat, the Overturning Sea Dragon will be added as a Golden Core stage World Boss to the weekly World Boss event.]

[Event Rewards: Dragon Corpse (Dragon Corpse share is determined by the damage dealt to the Overturning Sea Dragon)]

【Event duration: 6 days】

Jiang Liu: “????”

What did I see?
World Boss!

That's a very familiar phrase. The last time a world-class boss appeared was when Gui Miechen, a Foundation Establishment stage demonic cultivator, first appeared at the start of the server. It hasn't appeared since.

He thought the planners wouldn't make money from the weekly World Boss event, so he cut the content outright. He never expected it to come back more than half a year later.

The last Gui Miechen was a Foundation Establishment stage world boss, and this time it's a Golden Core stage world boss. So, only one boss appears for each major realm?

This output is truly impressive; it's no wonder they're the developers of a pay-to-win game. They only update content that doesn't generate revenue every six months!
