Chapter 21 Shocking Discovery

After playing for 6 hours, the trio sat in the lounge area in a daze, alongside several other guards.

Till now, the trio still hadn't killed Megaera yet.

Tears hung at the corner of their eyes as they bit their lips unwillingly.

But funny enough, they were the first to get to the Prison of the Damned stage and the only ones to get to where they were in God of War.

So everyone honestly admired them.

"F***! Can I just say that you 3 are awesome!"

"I didn't know what it was to be fierce until I watched your tactics."

"Wait! You guys should hurry up and check your progress reports in their membership cards."

Eh?

Bho Su and the rest looked tilted their heads in confusion before doing as instructed.

They selected the Tab labeled [Cultivation Level] and almost fainted from shock.

What was this?!!!

Looking at the cards, they gaped with their mouths wide open, uncertain of whether to breathe or scream.

What did they just see?

Could it be true?

The trio started breathing like they were in labor while staring at their cards nonstop.

To be honest, they did realize that they were somewhat stronger when they left the game.

But because of depression from not being able to kill Megaera, they brushed it off.

Now, after secretly searching themselves, their depression turned into joy.action

They were stronger than when they came in.

Hahahahhahahahhaha!

The surprise made them forget all about Megaera.

Heh… Megaera?

Who was that?

They found that they had somehow absorbed and refined enough qi energies that made them stronger without actually cultivating.

Both Yan Jin and Bihn Owo had been stuck for three years at the 3rd Dan of the True Qi Realm.

In truth, at their ages of 16 and 15, they were geniuses here in the qi-desolate lower realm.

Extracting qi here was like extracting water in a desert.

The qi here was so sparse that it would take them at least 6 or more years to break through to the 4th Dan, depending on their talents.

But after leaving the game, their breakthrough time that they estimated seemed to have decreased.

So how could they not be excited?

.

As for Bho Su, before coming here, he was already within the 4th Dan in the True Qi realm at the age of 16!

This showed how talented he was.

And as one of the most prominent young masters of the Prestigious Su clan, it was easy to imagine how much his clan valued him, as well as his sect.

It was just a month ago that he managed to break through to the 4th Dan.

So he still needed more time to properly stabilize his cultivation base.

But now, not only was his foundation more solidified, his raw power became stronger and sturdier too.

Bho Su's eyes flashed with a strange glean as he thoughtfully analyzed what just happened.

Could it truly be the doing of the God of War realm?

So if he kept going into this Godly world several more times, didn't this mean that he would be able to advance to the next Dan in no time?

Bho Su's body trembled in excitement while looking at the information on his card.

[Cultivation level: 4th Level True Qi Realm (2,300/100,000)]

What did these numbers mean?

Did this mean that once he gathered enough qi to reach 100,000, he would be able to advance to the next Dan?

Some of the guards answered their questions about the cards, while they in turn answered some questions about their battle tactics.

And as they spoke, everyone, no matter their status, felt very close to each other while bonding over the game.

.

"So that's how you did it? Awesome! Thanks, Bro. Ermmm... As for your question, a few of us had already asked Boss Chu about it. And you're right. Those numbers show how many points we need to breakthrough."

Apparently, the points increased due to our hard work within the God of War world.

In short, the pressure they withstood, their battle tactics, the number of enemies they killed, and everything else played a part in increasing their overall strength.

"I see. So just like battles here in the lower realm, everything roughly functioned the same in that realm."

"Wait! What about the point system? Does it still work in our realm?"

"Of course! Boss Chu said that even if we are cultivating within our rooms, as our cultivation level increases, so will the Points. This way, we'll also know if what we're doing is effective or not."

Bho Su's eyes shone with glee.

Yes!

That would be of great use to him.

For example, if eating a spiritual fish gives him 1/2, while that of an apple could give him 3, he would eat the apple instead and not waste so much time on the fish.

It would be like a qi detector, telling him what was beneficial and what wasn't.

Hey!

The lower realm was already desolate enough.

So he and many others needed all the help they could get.

However, he knew very well that nothing could compare to him visiting the God of War realm.

It was the fastest way to level up.

Some people were busy cultivating in seclusion for years while enjoying their time and advancing.

If others heard of this, they would cry pitifully.

This place was a treasure.

.

Chu Che revealed a satisfied smile while watching everyone get drawn toward games.

Well, he had already spent 6 hours here, so he could now flex.

But just as he was about to leave, the system popped out on his shoulders again.

[My darling host. Guess what... I have a side-mission for you.]

Chu Che's eyes lit up.

Could this be the legendary side mission he always read about in Wuxia novels?

If so, then what was he still doing here?

"System, why isn't there anything on the mission tab yet? Publish it Now!"
