This is a cultivation game, but the operation is bad

Chapter 258 Fake combat power of 60 billion! Instant kill!

Welcome to a game where pay-to-win is the ultimate goal!
This is the era of cultivation!
You can become stronger simply by spending money!

There are only thirty Heavenly Soldiers and Generals employment contracts. Whoever gets one is guaranteed a secure job for life!

Hundreds of millions of players from across the server descended onto the same battlefield, vying for one of only thirty spots based on sheer skill!
Let's compete fairly!

fair?

Super-rich players can be instantly promoted by spending money, while ordinary players have to toil away for three years to build a foundation!

Jiang Liu: Deep Blue, give me some in-game currency!

A fake promotion, a real promotion—only children make choices; adults want it all!

2 white resources, 2000 blue resources, 200 purple resources, 20 silver resources, and 2 gold resources.

That's equivalent to having the resources of two large resource points all to myself, and I'm going to spend all my money on 200 million spirit stones!
May I ask who planned this competition? After we ascend to immortality, let's get drunk for three thousand years!
Jiang Liu was forcibly dragged away by Zhao Guanping, a senior member of the Taiyao tribe. Although he didn't show any expression on his face, he was already trembling with excitement in his heart.

Almost there, almost there! Let me develop a little more, then I'm going to ask that lunatic with the number one combat power what the "Time of Annihilation" really means!

"You're still young, you can't waste money."

Zhao Guanping didn't see the cold glint in Jiang Liu's eyes. He muttered to himself, "In the Immortal Cultivation Era, the tricks used by the planners to trick you into spending money are hard to guard against. They often appear in unexpected places and deliver a fatal blow at a crucial moment, making you willingly empty your wallet."

"You need to be extra careful, extra vigilant, and extra cautious. Carefully distinguish between what is a scam to make people spend money, what is coercion to spend money, and what is getting stronger by spending money."

"Spirit stones are the most important resource. They cannot be wasted. They must be used wisely to ensure one's future."

"This is just a battle for positions. Even if we don't get the offer letter now, it doesn't matter. There will definitely be opportunities next time or in the future. There's no need to invest too many resources at this time."

"You're still young, there's no need to rush. Gradually improving your realm and strength is the key. Even if you don't get the job offer, it doesn't matter. The important thing is to participate. Just keep trying next time."

Before the era of cultivation began, he was already a veteran civil servant, having held the position of section chief for over twenty years. With no hope of promotion, he usually enjoyed taking care of young people.

Watching the seedlings grow strong under his protection, eventually climbing over him and contributing to the country in their own way, already made him very happy.

Jiang Liu was an unexpected turn of events, but it stirred his passion for education within him.

Young man, not yet twenty, a new player from the fourth district, at the Great Perfection of the Golden Core stage, able to go toe-to-toe with the top 25 in the overall combat power ranking, one of our own, with a promising future.

Each buff filled him with anticipation for Jiang Liu. This was the future of the Taiyao tribe, a young man whose talent far surpassed his own. Given time, he would surely grow into a towering tree!
He would never stand idly by and watch Jiang Liu be tricked into spending money, losing a large amount of spirit stones and delaying his growth!

You schemer, if you want to swindle spirit stones from young people, you'd better step over my dead body first!
Jiang Liu: “.”

Jiang Liu was a little confused. He didn't understand why this uncle was so concerned about him, someone he had just met, and was even trying to educate him patiently.

Could it be that you were captivated by my personal charm?

He could feel Zhao Guanping's concern for him, but he felt uncomfortable and awkwardly shook off Zhao Guanping's hand.

"Well, thank you for your guidance, Senior Zhao. I will keep it in mind and will definitely help the Taiyao tribe seize the golden resources here!"

As he spoke, he turned and headed toward an annex building.

"and many more!"

Zhao Guanping stopped Jiang Liu and said, "You've already been targeted by Wan Wulong, who's ranked eighteenth on the overall combat power list. Just in case, you should come with me."

"no, I'm fine!"

Jiang Liu smiled and waved his hand: "Let him come, I'm not afraid of him."

After saying those words, he disappeared, leaving Zhao Guanping standing there shaking his head and sighing.

Even though he was already being watched by a super-powerful player, and traveling with him would have been the safest option, he chose to go alone.

All I can say is that they're still too young.

Jiang Liu moved away from Zhao Guanping and headed towards the annex building, opening his backpack and eagerly using all the resources he had bought with real money.

Come, let me see what the golden resources give!
You have obtained a golden resource (fake - resurrection) and gained +1 resurrection attempt.

Holy crap! They gave me a life!
That's awesome! He bought back the life he lost to Ye Longying!
You have obtained a golden resource (True - Attribute), granting +300% to all attributes.

Oh my god!
When Jiang Liu saw the attributes added by the second gold resource, his eyes almost popped out of their sockets. A feeling of surprise, like a volcanic eruption, welled up from the bottom of his heart and rushed straight to his brain!
30 million spirit stones, 3000 spirit stones bought 300% all attributes!
Please, planners, sell more! My child really wants some!

"Top-tier resources, ultimate enhancement."

Sensing the slight changes in his body, Jiang Liu couldn't help but reveal a very intoxicated expression, even his usually pale face was tinged with an excited blush.

You have obtained a Silver Resource (False - Item) and 10 Concealment Charms.

You have obtained a silver resource (fake - item) and 5 invincibility charms.

You have obtained Silver Resource (False - Item) and 1 Rejuvenation Pills.

You have obtained a silver resource (True - Attribute), gaining +50% Divine Soul Strength.

You have obtained blue resources.

You have obtained white resources.

With various resources rapidly activating, Jiang Liu could clearly feel his combat power increasing by leaps and bounds. All sorts of miscellaneous attributes were piling up, and the "+" bar in the upper right corner of the buff panel was already full.

Among them, the most numerous [all attributes] have already reached 1400%!

With a 1400% increase in all attributes, plus the increase in other attributes, he felt that his combat power had at least doubled!
Actual combat power: 28 billion!
False combat power: 60 billion!
Other top players are also collecting resources and increasing their fake combat power.

But who can improve faster than him?!
I've bought up resources worth 2 million spirit stones, who dares to fight me now!
Hey you, Wan something-long, where are you? Come out and give me a run for my money!
He spent the money, his combat power increased, his confidence returned, and he started to get arrogant!
"No rush, no rush. We'll intercept him at the school gate later. Let's find Golden Resources first."

Jiang Liu suppressed his surging excitement, took a deep breath, and gradually regained his composure.

His imposing presence was undisguised, soaring straight into the sky. He was like a half-drawn immortal sword, stepping towards the annex building of Tianbing Elementary School.

Principal's Office, Golden Resources, here I come!

You do not have a visitor's permit and are not allowed to enter this building.

Jiang Liu: “????”

He pushed the door of the annex, but couldn't open it; the immortal sword that was about to be drawn was suddenly forced back in.

"A license? Where did this come from?"

Jiang Liu was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously turned his head left and right, and saw that there was an open window on the first floor of the annex building.

He walked over, craned his neck to look inside, and immediately his face darkened.

An NPC with the words "Logistics Soldier" above his head is sitting in front of the window. Got it.

With a simple tap, a window popped up in front of my eyes.

[Visitor Permit (Building 3): This permit grants entry to the third annex of Tianbing Elementary School. Price: 20,000 spirit stones]

666666, what kind of idiot is this large resource point? You can't even enter if you don't have money?
One certificate allows entry to a building, yet I have to spend millions of spirit stones to search for a resource point?
Jiang Liu bought the permit with a dark expression, then turned and stepped into the third annex building.

Upon entering the annex, ignoring all the rooms, I rushed to the stairs and went straight to the top floor.

A dozen seconds later, he appeared on the top floor of the annex building. He looked down the long corridor and sighed inwardly when he saw the Vice Principal's Office at the end of the corridor.

You made the wrong bet; the golden resources aren't here.

However, there should be silver resources in the vice principal's office, right?
With the intention of not leaving empty-handed, he was about to head to the vice principal's office when he suddenly heard a creak and the door to the room at one end of the corridor was pushed open!
Someone beat them to it!
While he was buying and using the resources, someone else had already entered the building!
Moreover, it also goes straight to the top floor!
next second.

A figure shrouded in demonic energy and exuding the aura of the early Nascent Soul stage darted out of the room. After casually closing the door, he turned around and met Jiang Liu's gaze. Jiang Liu subconsciously tensed up.

But when he saw that the newcomer was Jiang Liu, he relaxed and looked Jiang Liu up and down. A mocking smile appeared on his face, and he said in a sarcastic tone, "Oh, isn't this Jiang, the little brother who used his invincible trump card to drive away Brother Chongtai?"

The details of Jiang Liu's victory over Wang Chongtai have already spread. It was the combination of his brute force attack and two minutes of invincibility that allowed him to defeat Wang Chongtai, who ranked twenty-first on the overall combat power list.

Everyone knows that without an invincible trump card, Jiang Liu is no match for Wang Chongtai.

Everyone knows that the cooldown time for the invincible trump card is extremely long.

"Brother, do you still have any invincible trump cards? No, right?"

"Since there's nothing left, then die."

Before he could finish speaking, a five-colored full moon that filled his entire field of vision suddenly slashed down. The fierce sword aura it unleashed made his expression change drastically in an instant, and a very strong premonition of death arose spontaneously.

His pupils widened, and goosebumps stood on end!
Wasn't it said that this newbie from the fourth district only defeated Brother Wang Zhongtai because of his invincible trump card?
How could that be?
Kill instantly with one sword!

He raised his sword and swung it.

A Nascent Soul stage demonic cultivator is dead!
By this point, Jiang Liu was already able to instantly kill players in the early stages of the Nascent Soul realm!

Even though it's a battle for supremacy, that's enough!
Jiang Liu casually sheathed the Azure Blood Hundred Slaughter Sword as if it were a trivial matter, his expression unchanged. He stepped over the tombstone on the ground and headed towards the vice principal's office.

A Nascent Soul cultivator in the early stage, which is equivalent to someone ranked in the 50s or 60s on the overall power list, probably doesn't even have a single max-level limited-time item. What gives them the right to be arrogant in front of him?

"Heavenly Demon Golden Slash!"

Jiang Liu had just stepped over the tombstone when he heard a roar behind him, the angry voice filled with resentment.

They actually came back to life?
He frowned slightly, and as he sensed the attack coming at him from a great distance, he vanished from his spot in a flash.

"The stars have changed!"

"Five Elements Revolving Sword!"

He teleported away to dodge the sneak attack, then turned and slashed with his sword again!
The Nascent Soul player who had just been resurrected has now become a tombstone!

The fact that he died twice in just three or four seconds was unacceptable to the player who played the demonic path.

"No! Impossible!"

The demonic player, now a tombstone, lay on the ground, roaring at Jiang Liu with disbelief in his voice.

"What makes you think you can defeat me instantly! What makes you think you can defeat me instantly!"

"Even Brother Chongtai can't defeat me in an instant!"

No matter what, he is a Nascent Soul cultivator in the early stage, ranking 58th on the overall combat power list. Even if he were to fight Wang Chongtai, he could fight for more than ten rounds.

But now, he was actually killed instantly by a player from the fourth server who had reached the Great Perfection of the Golden Core stage!
And it happened twice in a row!

Can not accept!

Jiang Liu lowered his head and looked calmly at the tombstone that was trembling with shock. He tilted his head and said, "I don't believe it either. Why don't you stand up and try again?"

In short, he silenced that Nascent Soul demon cultivator.

He was from Zone 1, and he only had three resurrections, for a total of four lives.

Having been killed twice by Jiang Liu, he now only has two lives left.

Resurrection?
Some of the previously impulsive magic players calmed down, their faces filled with resentment. They silently comforted themselves, thinking that they had been careless and that if they had used defensive spells in time, they would not have been instantly killed.

We were careless, absolutely careless.

Seeing that the tombstone had calmed down, Jiang Liu didn't bother to waste any more time and stepped straight into the vice principal's office without giving it another glance.

You picked up a white resource (attribute), gaining +2% to all attributes.

You have picked up a blue resource (limited time), gaining +20% Divine Soul Strength (1 hour)

You have picked up a purple resource (item) and obtained 1 limited-time gacha ticket.

[You picked up a purple resource (cooldown), gaining -10% reduction in the cooldown time of currently cooldown skills.]

You have picked up a silver resource (item) and obtained 5 Invincibility Charms.

The purple resource gave him a gacha ticket, which made his face darken, but the silver resource gave him an invincibility charm, which made his eyes light up.

I remember that the silver resources I bought also included an invincibility charm, right?

Jiang Liu opened his backpack and saw 20 invincibility talismans lying among a pile of miscellaneous items.

【Invincibility Charm: A special item that grants invincibility for 5 seconds upon use, making it highly recommended for this battle】

Hilarious! 100 seconds of invincibility!

The longer you are invincible, the better your chances of winning in the final battle!

"With the two avatar skills, I have a total of more than 5 minutes of invincibility. If I manage to grab the employment contract in the last 5 minutes of the battle..."

Jiang Liu murmured to himself, a faint glint of light in his eyes, as he secretly plotted in his mind.

In the last 5 minutes, holding the employment letter and entering an invincible state is the most likely way for him to grab the employment letter!
Therefore, you must ensure that you have 5 minutes of invincibility at the last moment!
Furthermore, we need to continue searching for silver resources and accumulate more invincibility talismans, the longer the invincibility period, the better!
Since he had already been tricked into spending money and had already invested spirit stones, he was not going to leave empty-handed!

Three battles for supremacy?
Let's pretend the last two games didn't exist!

He wants to secure a spot in the decisive battle in the very first match!
