Game Cultivation World: I'm really playing games

In front of the cave, Xue Tianhan and the others have gathered here, but they cannot go in yet because there is a barrier blocking the entrance.

"Everyone, let's get started. Let's open this barrier together." Dean Liu said to Vice Dean Sun and the two instructors.

This is not an ordinary barrier. In order to prevent the big monster inside from coming out to cause trouble to the academy, they joined forces with all the masters of the academy to set up this protective barrier outside the cave.

To open the barrier, not only a key is needed, but also the gathering of four Nascent Soul masters. Only with the combined efforts of the four masters can the barrier be opened.

Dean Liu placed an object in the middle of the cave entrance, and then the four of them emitted spiritual power towards the top of the four directions of up, down, left and right.

Spiritual power converged towards the object in the middle at a speed visible to the naked eye, and then under the influence of the spiritual power, the object rotated rapidly, like a vortex, absorbing the barrier into it.

"Okay, the barrier here is open, everyone go in." Dean Liu put away the items and said.

"Dean, if we go in like this, will there be some powerful demon lurking in the cave?" someone asked worriedly. After all, the cave was a complex environment, and if something unexpected happened, there would be nowhere to hide.

"Don't worry, we've already considered this issue and have double insurance. There's also a barrier protecting the exit, so just go through the cave without worry."

With the dean's words, everyone no longer worried about whether a monster would suddenly appear, and boldly walked to the other end of the cave.

There was also a barrier here, similar to the previous one, requiring four people to work together to open it. However, it was different from the previous one. The barrier there was received inside the object, while the barrier here was like a door, with the barrier at the entrance retracted inwards.

"Okay, everyone jump down." Dean Liu sat down on the stone bench next to him and said.

This place must have been artificially modified, like a living room, with stools and a table.

Looking outside the cave, the exit is several stories higher than the ground, and it offers a beautiful view from above.

Because the cave entrance is high, ordinary monsters will not climb up, let alone besiege the barrier. Therefore, this cave has become the academy's passage into the West Mountain Secret Realm.

"Dean, why don't we go down and explore the way first?" Instructor Ye suggested. It's been so long since we've been out here, and we don't know what's going on down there. If there's a powerful demon lurking down there, then whoever jumps in will be in danger.

"That's great!" Dean Liu nodded.

With two "whoosh" sounds, Instructor Ye and Instructor Cai flew down. They looked around and found nothing unusual, so they flew up.

"Okay, everyone can jump down.

But I still want to remind everyone that if you really encounter a life-threatening situation that you cannot survive, just crush the bamboo slips.

There is a one-time teleportation array set up in the bamboo slips, which will teleport you back here instantly. However, the students who are teleported back will be disqualified from participating in the competition.

"Do you understand?" Instructor Ye said as he came up.

"understood!"

"I understand. Then jump down."

"Thump, thump..."

There was a river below, and some students who were not strong enough did not jump far enough and fell into the river.

"Xiaobai, can you jump to the other side of the river with me and Xiaoqi?" Xue Tianhan asked, not wanting to faint.

"Master, don't worry. I'm in the Golden Core stage after all. It's easy for me to jump over." Xiaobai replied.

"Since there's no problem, then let's jump! It's a pity that in order to promote the mount, a certain game didn't provide the skill of flying with air control. Otherwise, flying with a sword would be so cool."

"Don't think too much. Before leaving the city, no one can fly with a sword." Xiao Qi had received the gossip a long time ago, so he spoke out to dispel Xue Tianhan's unrealistic idea.

There is no other way but to jump.

Just as Xiaobai jumped down and stabilized himself, Zhi Lao appeared with a puff of smoke and said to Xue Tianhan:

"New quest: Hunt twenty Golden Core Stage Leopard Inner Cores. Completing the quest will earn you 10,000 experience points and a chance to draw a spiritual weapon."

"Damn, twenty? And they're in the Jindan stage. You think too highly of me." Xue Tianhan couldn't help but complain. You know, he had just broken through to the Jindan stage, and he had such a difficult task.

"If you think it's too much, you can choose not to take the task. I didn't say you have to accept it." Old Zhi said in a flattering tone.

"Can I change it?" Ten thousand experience points, and a chance to draw a spiritual weapon. Xue Tianhan was still very tempted by the reward and started to negotiate.

"Sure, hunt down three inner cores of Nascent Soul monsters." Old Zhi did not say no and listed another task.

"Hey, old man, you look like you deserve a beating, do you know that?" Xue Tianhan couldn't help but curse. Three and twenty, the number is small, but the level is much higher. How can people play this?

"If you have the guts, go and complain to me. Otherwise, there are only two tasks left, you can choose one." Old Zhi liked to see Xue Tianhan hating him to the core but being unable to do anything about him.

"Okay, I haven't even settled the score with you for cheating me of my top-grade spiritual weapon last time, and you're still so arrogant. Sooner or later, I'll let hackers hack into you." Xue Tianhan cursed.

But Master Zhi ignored him and ran away.

"Tianhan, what's wrong?" Xiaoqi didn't understand why Xue Tianhan was so angry, so he turned his head and asked.

"The intelligent customer service assigned me a difficult task. I wanted to change it, but the guy gave me an even more difficult task." Xue Tianhan explained.

"What do you need me to do?" Xiao Qi asked curiously.

"Hunting down twenty Golden Core Stage Leopard Inner Pills!"

"Twenty? And it's a golden elixir? Are you sure?" Xiao Qi was shocked.

"Well, then I planned to change one. He gave it to me and said he wanted to hunt for three inner cores of Yuanying monster beasts."

"This is too difficult. Don't even take it." Xiao Qi understood why Xue Tianhan was so angry. This task was too outrageous.

"But the reward is 10,000 experience points, and there's also a chance to draw a spiritual weapon." Xue Tianhan was a little unwilling. The difficulty was a bit high, but if he worked hard, there was still a chance to complete the task.

However, Xue Tianhan believed that hunting three Yuanying early stage monsters was easier than hunting twenty Jindan leopards. After all, with the Luoyu bow, a sneak attack could kill the Yuanying early stage monsters in seconds. It just depended on whether there were any unlucky children left alone.

As for the twenty golden elixir leopards, not to mention whether they are difficult to kill, it is still a question whether you can encounter so many.

"I just accepted a task, and the rewards are also these, but you only need to hunt three inner cores of Jindan-stage monsters." Xiao Qi glanced at Xue Tianhan and couldn't help but say.

"...What does this plan mean? Give me special treatment?" Xue Tianhan was about to spit out a mouthful of blood. Same person, different fate!

"I think that's probably the case." Xiao Qi nodded, agreeing with Xue Tianhan's opinion.

"Remove the two words '80%'."

"...Forget it, let's take it one step at a time. Blunt Knife and Xue Ningmeng are waiting for us up ahead. Let's go over and meet up with them first." Xiao Qi said after looking ahead. Accepting the mission took some time, so Xue Ningmeng and Blunt Knife went up ahead.

Only then did they realize that Xue Tianhan and Xiao Qi had not caught up and were waiting there.

……

Xishan Secret Realm is a large uninhabited area. Although it is not as difficult to walk through as the Lost Forest, the situation inside is quite complicated.

There are monsters, restrictions, traps, incomplete formations, and unknown areas.

"Master, there is a thousand-year-old red fruit tree five hundred meters to the southeast." Xiao Huang said while lying on Xiao Bai's neck.

"Millennium Vermilion Fruit, a good thing. Is there any demonic beast guarding it?"

"Yes, there are quite a few of them. They seem to be fighting for the red fruit." Xiao Huang described the situation he sensed.

"Xiao Qi, I plan to go over and take a look. How about you wait here?" Xue Tianhan was afraid that the monster was too powerful, so he wanted to go over and observe it first.

"What are you talking about? We have a treasure, so of course we should go together." Xiao Qi understood Xue Tianhan's thoughts. Because of this understanding, he couldn't let him go alone. After all, Xiao Bai was the guarantee of his life. With him, he could ensure that nothing serious would happen.

"Okay, then we'll go over quietly."

……

"Hua Laoqi, this Zhu fruit is mine, why did you bring people to steal it?"

"What a joke! In this secret realm, all the treasures are ownerless. If you say it's yours, then it's yours? If you call it, will it respond to you?" Hua Laoqi is a leopard and the seventh child in the family, so others call him Hua Laoqi.

"You are throwing a tantrum. Don't think I'm afraid of you just because you are in numbers. I, Xiong Er, am not someone who can be frightened." The bear surrounded by Hua Laoqi and his men was a brown bear, more than three meters tall, like an elephant.

"Tsk, you are quite big, but you and I are both in the early Nascent Soul stage. You are alone, while I have four Golden Core brothers with me. What can you use to fight me? Get out of the way if you know what's good for you." Hua Laoqi said contemptuously.

"I have the courage and bravery to deal with you." Xiong Er said, patting his chest.

"Humph, you're shameless. Don't blame me for being rude. Everyone, come on, tear this bear apart alive."

Leopards stand out for their swiftness, while brown bears inherit their legacy with strength.

The fight started. There was one Golden Dan Leopard on the left, one on the right, and one above and below, attacking different parts of Xiong Er.

Xiong Er’s two palms were no match for the four leopards. The ones on the left and right were slapped away by him, and the ones above and below attacked him.

When it freed its hands, the thing it had previously swatted away came back again.

Of course, the Golden Core Leopard could only cause some trouble to Xiong Er, and Hua Laoqi's attack was the key to its defeat.

Just when Xiong Er was about to use his ultimate move, Hua Laoqi used his ultimate move first, using a Black Tiger Heart-Rip attack to cut a bloody gash in Xiong Er's chest.

"Damn it!" Xiong Er felt pain and, ignoring the Golden Core Leopard, withdrew his palms, grabbed Hua Laoqi's leopard head and flew out.

Hua Laoqi was agile and kicked the tree sideways, then landed smoothly without suffering any damage.

"Hey, this claw must hurt?" Hua Laoqi licked the bear blood on the claw and said with a sinister smile.

"Don't be complacent. I will return the damage to you sooner or later." Xiong Er grabbed a golden elixir leopard and smashed it to the ground.

This was not the end. It turned around and grabbed the leopard's hind legs, then rotated 360 degrees, knocking the other Jindan leopards away, and then threw the leopards to the ground and stepped on them.

Just when it was about to end the life of the leopard on its feet, Hua Laoqi attacked again, and used a shady trick, actually targeting Xiong Er's second child.
