Chapter 32 – Instructing strategies

Within the afternoon, when Ye Zhou got here on-line, the waiter introduced up a brand new tableful of meals, and the 2 of them ate collectively whereas ready for the system’s consequence.

Throughout this time, Ye Zhou stood by the precept that one shouldn’t discuss whereas they eat, and spoke as little as doable. Dugu Zhuo felt Ye Zhou was distancing himself, however as a substitute of forcibly closing this distance, he maintained a degree of interplay that Ye Zhou was comfy with, not taking overly intimate actions.

The Tiangang Steps took longer to research than even the 5 Phases Swordplay. It took till 5 PM for the system to leisurely situation its announcement—

[Notice: Dugu Zhuo has created the Tiangang Steps, which has passed verification by the system. He has gained the title “Footwork Master”]

[Notice: The Tiangang Steps has been recognized by the system as a high-level footwork technique, which can be learned by all players.]

[Notice: Dugu Zhuo has now obtained the titles “Array Expert”, “Sword Master”, and “Footwork Master”. He has now fulfilled the prerequisites for creating a sect and can found his own sect within the game, in order to take players or NPCs as disciples.]

After this announcement, the gamers throughout the recreation weren’t truly that excited. They have been numb to the successive system bulletins by now, and a few individuals have been even quietly writing tales on the discussion board the place Dugu Zhuo was the protagonist and a cultivator who had transmigrated into the physique of an NPC.

The truth is, by now, there had already been individuals who known as the service hotline and reported Dugu Zhuo for utilizing a cheat engine, however the service personnel had investigated and located all his information to be regular. The system had discovered nothing out of the odd, so lots of people deserted the campaign at that time.

After all, crucial level was that the gamers assumed the strategies they’d achieve by discovering a sect and a grasp shouldn’t fall behind Dugu Zhuo’s self-created strategies. And plus, up thus far, Dugu Zhuo hadn’t acquired any tangible rewards, simply titles. He may have the ability to begin a sect and soak up disciples, however gamers may additionally tackle disciples and achieve followers. There have been uncountable individuals within the bigger gangs, so there didn’t appear to be many upsides to being the grasp of a sect. It wasn’t very enviable.

There have been even just a few combative gamers who have been trying ahead to preventing with Dugu Zhuo once they reached the next degree, to see simply how good his self-created strategies have been.

“How can we begin our personal sect?” Ye Zhou requested.

Dugu Zhuo frowned. “A sect panel has appeared on the management display screen, which says that along with creating three strategies, I have to additionally fulfill a set of necessities.”

Firstly, they needed to discover land appropriate for constructing a mountain sect. It wanted to have a number of mountain peaks, and religious veins below the earth to maintain the religious vitality of the world.

Secondly, they wanted sufficient silver to purchase this land from the native authorities, a really spectacular quantity of silver taels, within the tens of tens of millions.

Thirdly, they wanted a robust magic artifact to maintain their sect array. It wanted to be an artifact of no less than the Nascent Soul stage, and if sooner or later, the sect grasp elevated in realm, the artifact would additionally should be upgraded.

Fourth, they wanted an uncountable variety of high-grade spirit stones, so as to arrange an array to defend their sect.

Fifth, they wanted a divine beast as sect guardian, which needed to be of the spirit race.

Sixth, when forming their sect, they wanted no less than three gamers. One could be the sect grasp, one the sect elder, and one their chief disciple.

After listening to this lengthy listing of necessities, Ye Zhou immediately bought a headache. Beginning a brand new sect was means too tough.

Dugu Zhuo, then again, thought that if these have been the entire necessities, it was truly simpler than he had anticipated.

“These necessities must exist,” he mentioned. “Naturally we are going to want a mountain if we wish a sect. An artifact, spirit stones, and a guardian beast are all issues that each sect has. As for the chief disciple, we are able to simply arbitrarily decide one other participant. I’ll be the sect grasp, and also you the elder.”

“Me? Shouldn’t I be the disciple?” Ye Zhou requested.

“How may that be? The system acknowledged you as my grasp, so in fact you should be the Supreme Elder of our sect,” Dugu Zhuo mentioned.

Ye Zhou sighed deeply, attempting to strengthen his willpower towards Dugu Zhuo. Initially he had thought this was an excessive amount of of a problem, however now he truly felt that Dugu Zhuo’s phrases have been cheap. Beginning a sect of 1’s personal like this felt like operating a enterprise.

“Then how are we alleged to get these items?” Ye Zhou requested. “Didn’t the system assign you some duties?”

Beforehand within the PC recreation, if gamers needed to start out a gang or a clan, they must full a set of missions from the system, and each time they did, their territory could be expanded just a little. For bigger gangs, the chief and core members would’ve been overworked within the early days, finishing missions late into the evening, in addition to spending all the cash they earned within the recreation on the gang.

If this wasn’t sufficient, the gang chief must spend his personal cash, and even rent gamers to assist full the duties.

Regardless of all this, there have been nonetheless many individuals who loved creating their very own gang, simply having fun with the business-like really feel of it.

After trying over the management panel, Dugu Zhuo mentioned, “There’s a mission subsequent to the mountain requirement.”

“What variety? A quest chain? An merchandise assortment quest?”

In Ye Zhou’s thoughts, so as to acquire a chunk of land, they must full a sequence of duties so as to win an NPC’s goodwill, in order that they’d be prepared to promote a mine about to go bankrupt to them. Or they could possibly be compelled to gather a set of things, to create their very own mountain.

Nonetheless, Dugu Zhuo mentioned, “Choose one of many following cases with appropriate mountain ranges, and take them as our personal.”

“What?!” Ye Zhou rubbed his ear, questioning if he had heard flawed.

“The offered cases are the extent 100 Canglan Heavenly Hearth occasion, the extent 90 Thousand Yao Spirit Fog occasion, the extent 80 Heavenly Dragon Vein occasion, the extent 70—”

“Maintain on!” Ye Zhou interrupted. “What does the system imply by this? Are we anticipated to finish such laborious cases?”

“No,” Dugu Zhuo mentioned, “We’re meant to defeat the boss and all of the monsters within the occasion to the purpose that they undergo us and change into our subordinates. Mm, this isn’t a foul technique. After subjugating them, we’ll acquire a guardian beast too.”

“What’s the bottom degree occasion the system offered?” Ye Zhou requested.

“The extent 40 Spirit Yao Tiger Fang—” Dugu Zhuo lower himself off abruptly.

“Stage 40 is alright. But when we don’t have a sect earlier than degree 40, received’t our progress be too gradual?” Ye Zhou was so anxious he needed to ram his head right into a wall.

“We’ll use this occasion,” Dugu Zhuo mentioned, abruptly trying resolute.

He introduced out a jade slip and positioned it into Ye Zhou’s hand. “That is the Tiangang Steps, a robust method in its personal proper. In a bit, I’ll educate you sword flight and wind driving, so we are able to degree up as rapidly as doable.”

“Huh? The system didn’t acknowledge your sword flight as a way, so how am I alleged to be taught it?” Ye Zhou requested, as he accepted the Tiangang Steps.

Dugu Zhuo smiled barely. “Your aptitudes are good, so I’m sure you’ll have the ability to be taught it.”

There have been too many gamers within the recreation, they usually wanted a quiet space to coach. With out Black Cat round, they couldn’t enter the Tanye Temple. After considering for a bit, Dugu Zhuo determined to easily buy a two-person room in that inn which allowed you to meditate and achieve expertise. It will be 200 silver for an evening, and Ye Zhou would have the ability to conveniently meditate there.

Ye Zhou: “…”

Maintain on, there was one thing not fairly proper about this growth.

He may put aside the room-sharing for now. In any case, nothing may occur below the sport’s censorship system. Extra importantly, simply why did Dugu Zhuo imagine he may be taught such a way?

This recreation, 9 Heavens, so as to give gamers an genuine xianxia expertise, appeared to be utilizing probably the most superior mind linking expertise.

Any command a participant issued could possibly be linked with a particular motion throughout the recreation. With the participant’s ideas, the in-game character may run, leap, roll, and so forth. Strategies labored the identical means, linking the particular impact in-game to the method’s identify, in order that when the participant considered the method’s identify, the command could be issued and the participant character would have the ability to assault.

The underlying ideas behind this have been very advanced, and Ye Zhou wasn’t curious about understanding them both.

However ultimately, cultivation on this recreation was nothing just like the cultivation proven in novels, and was merely the mix of psychological instructions and expertise. If his in-game character hadn’t discovered a sure method, then regardless of how a lot he thought, he wouldn’t have the ability to perform that motion.

“No means. It’s completely unattainable,” Ye Zhou mentioned, refusing to sit down cross-legged on the mattress.

“It’s doable for you,” Dugu Zhuo mentioned. 

Ye Zhou had been the elder of Qingtian Sect, the grasp of the Su Sword, and subsequently his aptitude for the sword was far past regular individuals’s. It was mentioned that he had been in a position to set up his basis at ten, and solely as a result of after Basis Institution, a cultivator’s look wouldn’t change, had he suppressed his cultivation so as to set up his basis at eighteen, to ensure that his physique to mature.

After that, he had damaged by means of Golden Core stage inside two years, and Nascent Soul stage inside ten, turning into a genius hardly ever seen in ten thousand years.

Ye Zhou was unable to influence Dugu Zhuo, and eventually obeyed and sat cross-legged. The necessities for his posture have been excessive as nicely, since he needed to let the palms of each his arms and toes, in addition to the highest of his head, face the sky. He was informed this posture would enable religious essence to most simply movement by means of his physique.

It was means too tough to have the bottoms of each his toes face the sky after sitting cross-legged. He wanted to first place his left leg over his proper leg, then his proper leg over his left. Fortuitously, this was a recreation, and it was simple to drag his character into place.

“What ought to I do subsequent?” Ye Zhou requested.

Subsequent, he noticed Dugu Zhuo additionally sit on the mattress. His eyes instantly widened. If this went on, they’d activate the system’s screening capabilities.

Nonetheless, Dugu Zhuo didn’t do something, solely sitting behind Ye Zhou and urgent each palms towards his again. “I’m going to pour my religious essence into your physique. All you should do is attempt to really feel the true qi inside your dantian. Then you possibly can enable your qi to flow into inside your physique, the identical means I do.”

After talking, Dugu Zhuo started to flow into his religious essence. Ye Zhou actually sensed a heat present enter his physique from his again, starting to flow into inside his physique.

This was illogical!

Although he was crammed with doubts, Ye Zhou closed his eyes and tried to sense the religious essence inside his physique below Dugu Zhuo’s steering. In a short time, he felt heat inside his dantian. He imagined there was a present of true qi inside his dantian, and tried to information it all through his physique. After solely a short time, he had entered a meditative trance.

Dugu Zhuo withdrew his arms. He had been certain that Ye Zhou’s aptitude could be enough.

“The primary time you flow into your true qi, you solely want to finish 9 grand circuits,” he mentioned. “You’re at Basis Institution stage along with your present degree, so 9 shouldn’t be laborious.”

It wasn’t laborious in any respect. After effortlessly finishing six circuits, Ye Zhou felt a beeping noise begin up by his ears.

This was his housekeeper calling him. Truly, the VR helmet could possibly be disconnected similar to a PC by unplugging the facility. The planners of 9 Heavens had accounted for the opportunity of sudden disconnections, and apart from an abrupt change in imaginative and prescient, there wouldn’t be any psychological impact.

Nonetheless, Ye Zhou’s well being wasn’t good, and his housekeeper didn’t need to straight disconnect his helmet, afraid that the sudden change in setting would make his heartbeat pace up and trigger him to change into in need of breath. She had merely put in an alarm on his helmet, so when she wanted him to log out, she may simply press the alarm to remind him.

He was nonetheless not accomplished cultivating, although, and he loved the feeling of qi flowing freely by means of his physique an excessive amount of. He determined to only shut off his senses and permit the alarm to beep, till he lastly completed 9 grand circuits.

Upon opening his eyes, Ye Zhou mentioned frantically, “It’s already 7:30! No marvel my housekeeper is so impatient. I won’t have the ability to get on tonight. I’ll see you tomorrow.”

After saying his farewells, he rapidly left the sport.
