Online Game: Unrivaled Gods

Sun Rui's "Overlord's True Scripture" was growing rapidly, his attribute panel was jumping up and down, and his proficiency was increasing at lightning speed. Two hours later, Sun Rui withdrew the internal energy that was surging in his meridians, let out a long breath, and exhaled a mouthful of foul air. This foul air, which had been accumulating in Sun Rui's body, made him feel relaxed after he exhaled it.

Opening my attribute panel, I was astonished to see that my "Overlord's True Scripture" was already at level 0 with 90% progress. Internal energy cultivation was so fast and easy! Then I realized I possessed the "Ghostly God in the World" talent, making my cultivation speed ten times faster than others. By that calculation, it would take others thirty hours to cultivate the "Overlord's True Scripture" from level 0 to the next level—that was far too fast! How could this be? Among all the internal energy techniques in the Three Kingdoms region, the "Overlord's True Scripture" was undoubtedly the top-tier technique, so its cultivation difficulty should be much higher. Even at the Qi Cultivation stage, it shouldn't be this fast.

Sun Rui pondered for a while but couldn't figure out the reason. Seeing that it was already dark outside the window, he closed his eyes and continued cultivating the "Overlord's True Scripture." The purple mist that was almost filling his dantian was mobilized by Sun Rui, and the speed gradually increased as it circulated through his meridians. With each circulation, the purple mist increased little by little. Cultivating internal energy was tedious. As time passed, Sun Rui's thoughts slowly turned to how he could develop in the future to quickly enhance his own strength. His body instinctively circulated his internal energy.

"Player Lü Bu, has reached 100% trigger rate for the Overlord's True Scripture at level 0? Do you wish to activate it?"

A system notification pulled Sun Rui back to reality. He wondered, "Nine Revolutions of Overbearing Qi? Is this even possible? Isn't it enough to reach the Qi Accumulation stage once you reach 100% proficiency? How did this Nine Revolutions of Overbearing Qi come about?"

After thinking for a while, Sun Rui clicked on the pop-up system dialog box. He then felt the previously calm purple mist in his dantian begin to ripple, with wisps of deep purple lightning flashing in the mist. As the lightning flashed, the mist slowly diminished.

As the pale purple mist diminished, a wisp of mist, even darker in color than the vanished mist, emerged from deep within his dantian. The re-emerged mist began to circulate according to the cultivation route of the "Overlord's True Scripture." As soon as it began to circulate, Sun Rui sensed the difference. The circulation speed was nearly 5% slower than before. Just now, it took less than 10 minutes to complete one cycle, but now it took 10 minutes.

"Player Lü Bu, completed the first stage of the Nine Revolutions of Overbearing Power, with an internal energy proficiency level of 0."

The first stage of the "Overlord's True Scripture" increases the power of internal energy by 5%.

Looking at the progress bar of his proficiency, Sun Rui smiled bitterly. Was this the legendary case of accumulating strength for a sudden burst of power? Nearly three hours of hard work had vanished, and he had only gained a 5% increase in internal energy. With his current knowledge, Sun Rui couldn't tell whether it was a gain or a loss. Since he had already embarked on the path of the Nine Revolutions of Overbearing Power, Sun Rui stopped thinking about it.

After reviewing these systems, Sun Rui closed his eyes again and continued cultivating the "Overlord's True Scripture." The Nine Revolutions of Overlord was a long and arduous journey.

A beginner village

"Village chief, I have been promoted to a Tier 1 spearman and I want to leave the village."

A man dressed in simple clothes, looking confident, spoke to the village chief of the newbie village in a very anxious tone.

"Ah, Tianyang, you are truly a genius! To become a Tier 1 soldier in just four months is extremely rare in our No. 9527 beginner village."

The white-haired village chief, clearly having been silent for a long time, spoke at length to the young man from Tianyang about the history of the novice village, number 9527.

"Alright, Tianyang, you have met the requirements to leave the village. I now, in my capacity as the village chief of Novice Village No. 9527, grant you permission to leave the village."

After rambling on for nearly 15 minutes, the village chief of No. 9527 finally stopped and allowed Tianyang to leave the village. The young man named Tianyang did not show any signs of impatience and listened quietly to the rambling words of the village chief of No. 9527.

"Hmm, what a patient young man, and the first one to leave the village. He'll definitely be a great talent in the future. I'll give you the village's most prized possession."

Seeing Tianyang's expression, the village chief of No. 9527 was very satisfied and took out a glittering gold plaque from his pocket.

"Congratulations to player Tianyang for receiving the Golden Village Building Token from the village chief of Novice Village No. 9527."

Upon hearing the system notification, Tianyang was overjoyed and thought to himself: I've finally waited for this! The Three Kingdoms, here I come! The warlords, here I come!

"Player Tianyang enters the Three Kingdoms map and enters Qingzhou."

"I'm here. I'll take back everything I missed in my past life, hahaha."

Tianyang stood on the teleportation array in Changyang County, shouting with a ferocious expression.

"System announcement: Player Tianyang is the first player to enter the main world from the starting village. He is rewarded with 50 reputation points."

"System announcement: Due to a player entering the main world from the starting village, the system is undergoing maintenance. Please log out of the game within 10 minutes."

The announcement of this system caused a global uproar, with discussions erupting around the world about who could level up so quickly, as the gap of nine levels of experience was not easy to bridge.

"brush."

A man dressed in plain clothes, who had just killed the wolf in front of him and was sheathing his sword, frowned slightly upon hearing the news.

"Which guild is this? Wait, this title is unfamiliar. It's not a guild member, it's a veteran?"

The man tried to guess Tianyang's identity, but he had no clue.

"Go offline and check if you can find out which newbie village this Tianyang is from. We should have people in every newbie village."

The man spoke to the people following behind him.

Roman region

A burly, middle-aged man with a full beard roared at the people around him: "You bunch of useless things, you actually let other ethnic groups surpass us, you are a disgrace to our title of a fighting nation."

The burly men, who had formed a circle, did not raise their heads to refute, and each of them looked ashamed and indignant.

Japan

"Baka! Find out who stole the top spot from our Great Japanese Empire!" A short man with a small mustache roared at his subordinates.

The same situation is playing out all over the world.

"call."

Upon hearing the system notification, Sun Rui slowly withdrew the internal energy flowing through his meridians into his dantian. He slowly opened his eyes, and two tiny purple lightning bolts flashed in them. The air in the room instantly froze, but as he exhaled a breath of foul air, the air seemed to flow again.

"Yes, the system is under maintenance. I happen to be busy these two days, so I don't need to worry about it."

Although Sun Rui was curious about who had become a Tier 1 soldier so quickly—after all, even with his strength, it had taken him four months to cross the ninth level gap, not to mention finding the Tier 1 soldier skill book, which was quite troublesome—he didn't care. Sun Rui felt it had nothing to do with him; his main goal now was to improve his strength and make money.

After exiting the game and returning to reality, Sun Rui looked around at his surroundings. In the past month, Sun Rui had rarely left the game except to cook. Suddenly, he felt a sense of familiar strangeness when he looked at his own home.

Today, taking advantage of the system maintenance, I had time to log off and do something Sun Rui had wanted to do for a long time. Nothing much had happened in reality during the past month, but what puzzled Sun Rui was that his younger sister was behaving strangely. She had been avoiding him for a whole month. At first, Sun Rui didn't pay much attention, but as time went on, he became a little worried.

"Bang!"

"What's wrong? The exams are all over, can't you even let people sleep in?"

Sun Xin stood at the door with a displeased look on her face, clearly unhappy that Qingmeng had been disturbed by Sun Rui.

Hearing his sister's words, Sun Rui didn't show his silly grin this time. Instead, he used sign language to gesture for her to come out with him without any expression.

Seeing Sun Rui's expression, Sun Xin's displeasure disappeared. This was the first time she had seen Sun Rui talk to her with such an expression. Knowing him as she did, she was serious this time. She felt scared, so she didn't argue anymore and obediently followed Sun Rui to the living room.

Do you know what I'm going to talk to you about?

Sun Rui sat on the sofa with a blank expression, gesturing with his hands, putting a lot of pressure on Sun Xin who was standing in front of him.

"Um..." Sun Xin hesitated, unsure of what to say, afraid of saying something she shouldn't.

"boom."

Seeing Sun Xin's hesitation, Sun Rui seemed very angry and slammed his hand on the coffee table, startling Sun Xin.

"Are you telling me to say it?"

Sun Rui gestured rapidly with his hands, appearing very anxious.

"I...I'll talk." Sun Xin was startled by his words, her eyes reddening slightly, and she dared not insist any longer.

Upon seeing Sun Xin's appearance, Sun Rui's heart softened, and his expression became gentle. He thought to himself, "So something really has happened."

"Seriously, it's just reading romance novels, the genre is just..." Sun Rui interrupted her halfway through her sentence. Upon hearing "romance novels," Sun Rui became very excited, stood up, walked up to Sun Xin, and gestured with his hands, silencing Sun Xin's words.

"You read romance novels. You're a junior high student. Even though the high school entrance exam is over, you've been reading them before. What if you don't do well on the exam?"

Sun Rui gave Sun Xin no chance to reply and began a long lecture.

“Xiaoxin, I’ve always thought of you as a reliable child, but how could you do something like this? How am I going to explain this to our parents if your grades drop? You need to get into a good high school so you can get into a good university and have a future.”

Sun Rui was indeed shocked by Sun Xin's claim that she read romance novels. He hadn't expected that his usually well-behaved and proud sister would read romance novels, and that he hadn't even noticed.

"Finished the lesson?"

A wronged voice came from her lips, and Sun Rui was stunned, hardly believing that he would hear such a wronged tone from Sun Xin. Sun Rui had never heard such a wronged tone from his younger sister before, which made him feel flustered.
