033, [This Setting Is Damn Sweet]
I still remember that when players learned that there was no [Ascension] setting in the game "Tianchen", it caused heated discussions in the forum.
With everyone's intense discussion, combined with the usual attitude of NPCs in the game, players felt that this setting was quite reasonable.
Ask yourself, can such a big world really make people free of worries?
If the purpose of cultivation is to ascend, to leave this world, to give up everything, then the more powerful the cultivator, the more heartless and heartless they may be.
But on the contrary, the cultivators of Tianchen Continent are indeed extraordinary, but apart from their cultivation, they are actually no different from ordinary people.
To put it simply, cultivators are just people with cultivation.
You may not believe it, even the arrogant and domineering Demon Sect in the eyes of outsiders, who do whatever they want, is on holiday during holidays!
Disciples can go back to their hometowns to visit their relatives during holidays, especially during the Chinese New Year. As long as they have a home to return to, they will go home for the New Year, and for those who are homeless, the Demon Sect is their home.
Not only the Demon Sect, but in fact most of the cultivation sects are like this.
Why is this so? In fact, it is very simple.
Once a person enters the door of cultivation, he will gain extraordinary cultivation and a lifespan that exceeds that of ordinary people.
Even if he only enters the first realm, it is easy to live for more than a hundred years.
It seems that mortals with short lifespans are destined to be unable to accompany the practitioners through their lives. They will eventually leave and disappear from the world of practitioners.
Since not everyone can practice, the parents of practitioners are mortals, and their brothers and sisters are mortals. This is normal.
Separation is inevitable.
A small number of practitioners use this as a basis and think that "forgetting emotions" and "eliminating emotions and nature" are the great way!
But in fact, most practitioners in Tianchen Continent take the opposite path.
It is precisely because separation is inevitable that everything becomes more precious.
"Human touch" and "the atmosphere of fireworks" are the main reasons why countless players are addicted to the game "Tianchen".
In the eyes of many players, this is like a real world. And for Lu Xun now, this place has indeed become a real world.
So for him, he naturally hopes that practitioners can be more like normal people, so that they can live more easily.
I was idle anyway, so Lu Xun sat cross-legged and started practicing again.
Although the experience points given were not much, but the mosquito was still meat, not to mention that the feeling of practicing was really addictive!
Soon, his body began to itch, and then it hurt.
And the reward he got was - the experience points rose at a snail's pace.
After running a few small cycles, he opened the experience bar and took a look. The current experience bar was [110/1000].
He can practice about one big cycle every day, which is equivalent to ten small cycles, and can gain 20 experience points.
In this way, if you rely on practice alone, it will only take 5 days to upgrade, hahahaha!
In fact, the practice of "Eating Qi Jue" is really not difficult. People with good qualifications do not need too much time to practice all the way to the Great Perfection.
"It seems that in addition to the reputation task, we have to find ways to gain experience through other channels." Lu Xun said in his heart.

At the same time, in a small town restaurant far away from the Demon Sect, a storyteller was telling stories with great joy.
He looked like a middle-aged man, wearing a plain white robe, like a poor scholar who failed the imperial examination.
There are actually many such people. If they are lucky, they can marry a woman who is willing to support them to study, so they can continue to study at an old age. If they are unlucky, they will generally find a job that can support their families.
The middle-aged man stood by the table, holding an unopened folding fan in his left hand, but he was talking about the anecdotes of practitioners.
These contents are what ordinary people like to hear the most. After all, the farther away some things are from themselves, the more curious they will be.
The storyteller was very good, speaking in a gentle and unhurried tone, the content was fascinating and very vivid.
But his left hand holding the folding fan had his orchid finger slightly raised, which made him look a little coquettish.
When he reached the climax of the story, the storyteller seemed to be thirsty, so he stopped, slowly drank a sip of tea, and supported one hand on the table, with a coquettish demeanor.
The audience below began to urge him, who could stand this feeling of being out of context?
Seeing that everyone was urging him, the storyteller smiled gently, cleared his throat, and continued to tell the story.
After finishing the whole story, a man in black clothes with a dark face held a tray and asked the audience for tips.
This man had a square face, was very tall, and had a big body, and looked like the most capable farmer in the village.
His smile was simple and honest. Perhaps because he smiled often, there were many wrinkles around the corners of his eyes, and his frown lines were also quite deep, making him look rustic and old-fashioned.
This was just a small town, and the restaurant was just a small restaurant. The audience was definitely not as good as the dignitaries in the big restaurants, but the storyteller was really good, and in the end, several generous audiences paid out of their pockets and gave generous rewards.
Before giving the rewards, the audiences praised: "You are a really good storyteller, but it's a little short!"
"It's long enough, long enough." The storyteller smiled slightly and bowed to thank every audience member who gave money.
Since he was not a regular storyteller in the restaurant, and only used this place to tell stories for two days, he would have to share the reward money with the restaurant later, so he would not get much in the end.
Today was the last day, and even though the shopkeeper tried to keep him, the storyteller and the farmer-like man left after a few polite words.
After two days of storytelling, the gentleman was almost done with it.
The farmer walked with a dragon-like step, while the storyteller's steps were very small, to be precise... like small steps.
After leaving the restaurant, the dark man asked, "Sir, are you sure you don't want to go back to the mountain?"
"What are you going back to the mountain for?" said the poor scholar in white robe.
"Aren't you going to see my junior brother?" the dark man said as he walked.
"What's so good about him? Can he be so good-looking? Isn't he just two eyes, two ears, a nose and a mouth?" The middle-aged poor scholar tidied his slightly wrinkled robe, and when he passed by a small stall selling bronze mirrors, he did not forget to take a look.
The dark-skinned man knew that the master was vain. Although he was not particularly good-looking, he was very vain.
In addition to being vain, the master was also jealous, so he did not like men who were too good-looking.
Therefore, the reason why Shen Yan could sit on the position of the leader of the Demon Sect was not only because he had the highest cultivation and the greatest prestige among his peers, but also because he was the shortest, fierce and ugly, and had no hair on his head...
——The master was very satisfied.
