80: Real world, unique setting

As Qing Cao Manager said this, the other four managers all cast surprised glances.

Ditu Manager said in a deep voice:

"Currently, the Xuanhuan World has only opened four countries, all suppressed by Golden Core forces. How difficult is it for us players to establish a Sect? Could it be that you, Qing Cao, soul-traveled into some extraordinary identity?"

Qing Cao Manager just chuckled:

"We, Qing Cao, naturally have some Opportunities. When the Sect is officially established, other players are welcome to join, and even if your Ditu people want to come, that's fine."

Ditu Manager snorted and said nothing more.

If an ordinary player's soul-traveling identity were exposed, it might only lead to targeting by other players, and sometimes no one would bother you at all.

However, a professional club's soul-traveling identity is extremely valuable; once exposed, it will definitely be targeted.

Beside them, the host, listening to the voice in his earpiece, subtly nodded.

Although this program was an interview with club managers, it was actually official propaganda for the Xuanhuan World, and these managers couldn't be allowed to steal the show.

So the host smiled and said, "The Xuanhuan World is currently holding a Golden Core Tomb event. I wonder what the professional players think?"

The five managers exchanged glances, their expressions a little strange.

Seeing their expressions, the host understood: "I heard that almost all players who went to the Efeng Mountain Range were annihilated. Were there any professional players among them?"

Red Rain Manager smiled bitterly and nodded:

"Who would have thought that a Golden Core Cultivator would be so terrifying? Just a breath of Clarity Qi exhaled before his death caused everyone heavy losses."

As soon as these words came out, the players watching the program couldn't help but be shocked.

They originally thought that only ordinary players would be easily suppressed and killed, and professional players should still be able to stand out with their skills, perhaps even sneaking into the Tomb to search for Treasures.

But now it seems that even professional players, as long as their Realm is still Foundation Establishment, Qi Refining, or Mortal, are no different from ordinary players.

Changing fate against Heaven through skill?

Perhaps feasible in other game worlds, but in the Xuanhuan World, this is like a joke.

"Huanmeng Studio has big ambitions."

Liu Zhuan Club Manager looked shocked: "They initially advertised that the Xuanhuan World would create a unique worldview and completely revolutionize the game industry. I thought they were exaggerating, but now it seems that was an understatement."

Seiya's Manager also nodded in agreement: "The Xuanhuan World's settings are very complete, interlocking, and the gameplay derived from it is truly too numerous. I think it's not an exaggeration to call it a second world."

As club managers, they were also veterans of the gaming industry, usually paying close attention to games that might become blockbusters.

But the Xuanhuan World gave them an unprecedented feeling.

For example, with the Golden Core Tomb, they originally thought it would be meticulously designed inside the Tomb, just like traditional MMORPGs, allowing players to team up for dungeons, perhaps even dividing into the warrior, mage, and healer trinity.

But now they found that the Golden Core Tomb was not a simple dungeon, but a part of this world; a Golden Core Cultivator had truly died, and then this Tomb was formed.

The Golden Core Cultivator's Realm during his lifetime still affects the surrounding environment to this day, and Qi Refining Cultivators and Mortals are no different from ants in front of him.

Qing Cao's Manager pondered for a moment before saying:

"If it were a traditional game, at most some scattered words would be designed in the dungeon to let players understand the dungeon's background, and that would be it.

"But I can see that Huan Meng's ambition is great; they have truly built a real world.

"The identity of this Golden Core Cultivator himself needs to be investigated by players. What kind of person was he? What Cultivation Technique and Spell did he practice? What skills did he possess? Are the artifacts he refined circulating in the outside world? Which old Cultivators benefited from his Medicinal Pills? Did he have any Disciples or a Legacy?

"Everything needs to be investigated, and this is actually the true content players engage with in the Golden Core Tomb event."

After he finished speaking, the host also sighed, "A real world."

Liu Zhuan's Manager added:

"Not just a real world, but a unique world.

"Our club's players have already investigated some intelligence. We found that the shortest Lifespan of a Golden Core Cultivator is a thousand years. You can imagine how many people this Golden Core Cultivator befriended in that thousand years? How many descendants did he leave behind? And most importantly, something we investigated that is very shocking—

"Did he leave behind any contingencies? Would he care for his descendants? Even, did he have a method for Rebirth after death?

"Why did the four major Golden Core forces, who suddenly gathered, know his Realm in advance? Why didn't a Golden Core Expert come in person, and Core Formation Cultivators not show up, but instead sent Immortal Foundation Outstanding Talents to lead the team?

"The deeper one understands these things, the more shocking they become."

The host also trembled in his heart. He was also a player of the Xuanhuan World, but he didn't play very deeply.

Like other players, after the Golden Core Tomb opened, he was only shocked by the power of the Golden Core, feeling that the Golden Core was truly terrifying, its deterrent power comparable to an atomic bomb—no, even more powerful than an atomic bomb.

However, the club managers saw something more important, which was the true essence of the Xuanhuan World:

A Golden Core Expert with a Lifespan of at least a thousand years, how many people did he befriend in his lifetime? How many Legacies did he leave behind? How many contingencies did he arrange after his death?

If a Cultivator practiced the Cultivation Technique passed down by that Golden Core, but lacked a Qi Gathering Method, would he explore the Tomb?

If a Cultivator obtained a Medicinal Pill and treasured it as an ultimate treasure, but had no refining method, would he be tempted by the Tomb?

Furthermore, what if that Golden Core Cultivator left behind some descendants, and some of them also cultivated to Golden Core, preparing to gather the Dao Lineage and take all the inheritance, how should the players position themselves?

"At the level of Golden Core, it's absolutely impossible to still be a Loose Cultivator."

Red Rain's Manager stated unequivocally: "A Golden Core Expert is not only powerful, but also the top figure in a Sect, Family, or even an Imperial Dynasty. The people and events he can be involved with simply cannot be explained by common sense."

The host mused, "As far as I know, one of the objectives of this server-wide event is to find the Golden Core Cultivator's background. This is probably very important?"

Ditu Manager nodded:

"I believe many players have already discovered that with the opening of the Golden Core Tomb, anomalies occur continuously, and Treasures constantly appear in the outside world, allowing many players to benefit.

"However, if one simply searches for these Treasures like a headless fly, the income will likely be very low, and they won't get the maximum benefit.

"According to the Xuanhuan World's settings, the Treasures falling from these anomalies are definitely not without reason; they are related to that Golden Core Cultivator's Realm and his Dao, and it's even possible that some Treasures are actually contingencies he arranged in advance.

"So we need to understand this Golden Core Cultivator, preferably find his inherited Dao Lineage, find his descendants, only then can we obtain the greatest benefit from it."

The host sighed, "What a Xuanhuan World! There are no pure dungeons in it at all."

Seiya Manager nodded:

"That's right, there are no independently existing dungeons in the Xuanhuan World, no NPCs that appear abruptly; everything is connected. In Xuanhuan terms, it means there is Karma."

Everyone felt a bit emotional, feeling that the Xuanhuan World was not only real but also unique.

The various clubs actually only understood some superficial knowledge, still completely ignorant of the deeper layers, but it still shocked them, making them feel that Golden Core Cultivators were extraordinary, and they dared not touch the Golden Core Tomb, only cautiously investigating at the very edges.

Like Red Rain's Manager, he had already told the professional players that once they investigated and found that the Golden Core had a major background, involving many Karmic ties, they must never provoke him, and simply pretend this server-wide event never happened.

Everyone lives very cautiously in the Xuanhuan World.

The program continued, and the host suddenly asked Seiya Manager a question:

"I wonder if Ye Chun will also join the Xuanhuan World?"
