The Immortal Cultivation Game Has Come True

Xuanqing discovered that the image on his phone screen had suddenly turned into a strange black and white color.

Xuanqing’s heart tightened.

Did something unexpected happen to this newly obtained opportunity?

In the black and white screen, a shriveled corpse laid quietly on the ground.

And.

A bloody system prompt appeared above the corpse.

[Player died from excessive hunger!]

[You can choose to: Resurrect in place, return to the city and resurrect, or randomly resurrect (this option consumes ingots)]

“Died from hunger?”

Xuanqing was somewhat surprised.

This was the first time he had seen a game character die from hunger after quitting the game.

However.

Although it was a bit strange.

After reading the text description below, he felt relieved.

It’s fine as long as you can resurrect. As long as the opportunity is still there, it doesn’t matter if the game character dies.

Among the three options, the last one, random resurrection, requires ingots. He gave up on this option first, as he hadn’t figured out how to obtain ingots yet.

As for the options of returning to the city and resurrect or resurrect in place…

In the end.

Xuanqing decided to resurrect in place.

Because if he resurrected in the city, it would be uncertain where he would end up and whether he would be able to cultivate again.

Subsequently.

Xuanqing found a comfortable position to lie down and whispered to his phone, “Enter the game and resurrect in place!”

…

At the foot of the Five Elements Mountain’s rear side.

A figure suddenly appeared next to the shriveled corpse that had died from hunger.

“Tsk tsk.”

Xuanqing’s face looked a bit strange.

This was his first time experiencing what it felt like to see his own ‘corpse.’

After resurrection.

He checked his body immediately.

In his Dantian, a mysterious whirlpool of Qi was entrenched, which was the mana he had previously cultivated.

“It seems that the mana I’ve cultivated won’t disappear after I die and resurrect.”

Xuanqing thought to himself.

With the previous experience of dying from hunger, he decided to find some food first and then continue cultivating.

He looked around.

Apart from the strange barren mountain peaks, there were dense forests everywhere. It would take some consideration to figure out where to find food.

“Let’s go up to a higher place on the mountain first!”

According to the rules of wilderness survival, when you find yourself in an unfamiliar place, you should first get a broad view and find the right direction.

Going up the mountain.

Xuanqing took steps and headed up the mountain.

…

In the shadows.

The faces of four Jiedi Protectors showed shock.

They witnessed another Taoist appearing out of thin air next to the strange corpse that starved to death.

And just like before, he appeared suddenly, without any indication or fluctuations.

Just as they were at a loss.

They saw the Taoist heading for the mountain.

“Could this Taoist be trying to uncover Buddha’s Six-character mantra?”

“Jiedi Protector Mo Ke has not returned; we don’t know what the Bodhisattva will say.”

“Damn, could it be that some monster is playing tricks on us?”

…

The Jiedi Protectors were outraged.

Guarding the Five Elements Mountain was their only goal for hundreds of years. Anyone who had designs on the Five Elements Mountain would have to step over their dead bodies.

The Golden Head Jiedi Protector gritted his teeth, his face showing a fierce light, and said, “No, we can’t wait any longer!”

As the guardians of the Five Elements Mountain, they had been guarding it for over four hundred years. Monkey King was the key to the rise of Buddhism, and if anything went wrong, no one could bear the responsibility.

“This Taoist is strange. Let’s all take action together!” The Silver Head Jiedi Protector’s expression became serious.

“Alright!”

The other three looked at each other and nodded heavily.

…

On this side.

Xuanqing, who was currently climbing the Five Elements Mountain, had no idea what was going to happen.

Even.

Xuanqing couldn’t help but sigh in his heart, thinking that this mountain was really steep and difficult to climb.

Therefore, when the group of Jiedi Protectors took action, all he felt was a sudden flash of light in front of him, and then he knew nothing.

“What is that… it’s so dazzling!”

Xuanqing’s last memory was of a dazzling light, and then he lost consciousness.

He died again.

Unlike the previous time he died due to hunger, this time he was killed by someone.

After his body turned to ashes, a jade pendant he carried fell to the ground.

Ding-dong~

The jade pendant made a crisp sound when it collided with the stone.

A moment later.

Ripples appeared in the air, and four monks revealed themselves, half of their bodies exposed.

They looked at the jade pendant on the ground, disbelief painted on their faces.

“Huh… a Daoist Official?”

The Golden Head Jiedi picked up the jade pendant and muttered to himself.

On the front of the jade pendant, there were two big characters ‘Xuanqing.’ On the back, it read ‘Taiji Palace Chosen Scholar: Right Magistrate of the Five Thunder Court and Officer of Thunderbolt Department.’

“How strange, why did this Daoist Official do such bizarre things? Could it be…”

The four Jiedi Protectors all have gloomy expressions, all with suspicions in their hearts that the Taoist sect was trying to prevent the rise of Buddhism by employing some kind of conspiracy or sabotage.

…

Putting aside the four Jiedi at the foot of Five Elements Mountain.

The scene goes back to the real world.

In Qingping Temple.

Xuanqing suddenly opened his eyes and sat up in surprise.

“How did it happen? Why did I die again?”

[Player was attacked by an NPC, life value depleted: death!]

[You can choose: Resurrect at current location, resurrect back in the city, randomly resurrect (this option consumes ingots)]

Looking at the gray screen on his phone and the bloody prompt, he fell deep in thought.

According to his memories, it seemed that before he died, a golden light appeared in front of him, and then he died.

Combining that with the system prompt, the reason for his death is likely due to an NPC in the game who released the golden light and killed him.

What kind of NPC would suddenly attack him in secret?

Everything seemed to be shrouded in a dense fog.

However.

The game allows you to resurrect; death is simply that. You can just start over.

Xuanqing couldn’t figure it out, so he had to temporarily give up.

Right now, the most important thing was to seize this opportunity and practice hard in the Immortal Cultivation Game. After all, the mana cultivated in the game can manifest in real life.

With that thought in mind.

Looking at the ‘[Resurrect at current location]’ words on his phone screen.

Xuanqing clicked on it again.

…..

In the Journey to the West World.

At the foot of the Five Elements Mountain.

The four Jiedi Protectors all had bitter expressions. They originally thought that it was some demon skilled in illusions who was playing tricks on them in secret, but they never expected it to be a registered Daoist Official.

This could already be considered a violation of the heavenly law.

Just as they were considering how to cover up the murder by burying the body.

Suddenly.

Without any warning, a figure appeared in front of them out of thin air.

…

Upon entering the game, the first thing Xuanqing noticed was that he was surrounded by four bald monks.

“Huh…?” Xuanqing was initially surprised, but then he realized that these guys might be the NPCs who ambushed him.

However.

The four Jiedi were even more shocked at this moment.

“How… How could… A Taoist Priest appear out of thin air again?”

The leading Golden Head Jiedi looked at the Officer Jade Card that had disappeared from his hand, then looked at the young Taoist priest in front of him, disbelief written all over his face.

They were caught off guard by this sudden turn of events and became somewhat at a loss.

“May I ask esteemed masters, what place is this?” Xuanqing’s eyes shifted slightly, he slightly bowed and asked tentatively.

“Five Elements Mountain…”

One of the Jiedi Protectors answered subconsciously.

Then they realized that whether the person in front of them was a demon or a Daoist priest, they probably couldn’t let him go.

Suddenly!

The four Jiedi attacked once more.

Accompanied by a burst of golden light, Xuanqing, who had just resurrected on the spot, died again.

However.

This time, Xuanqing died with a much clearer understanding. So this place is called the Five Elements Mountain, and the ones who ambushed him are four bald monks.

…

Real World.

Xuanqing woke up, a thoughtful expression in his eyes.

It seems there are such dangerous existences in the world of the Immortal Cultivation Game.

What’s even more bizarre is that those monks seemed to have very heavy murderous intent. He had just resurrected and had done nothing before he was mysteriously killed.

Also, the place mentioned by those monks… it sounds familiar.

“Five Elements Mountain… Five Elements Mountain… Huh… Monkey King, could it be the world of Journey to the West?”

Suddenly!

Xuanqing was shocked.
