Socially awkward female cultivator survives in the cultivation world through online games

Chu Yunyi raised her hand and brought her knife down, slashing fiercely at Hua Qi with the force of a thunderbolt.

With a loud "bang," Hua Qi hastily blocked the attack with his sword, only to be sent flying several feet away, landing on the ground in a disheveled state.

Before Hua Qi could get up, Chu Yunyi followed closely, unleashing a series of dazzling moves like a sudden downpour.

In an instant, the flashing blades left Hua Qi only able to parry, with no power to retaliate.

Finally, he was beaten so badly that he was powerless to fight back. He fell heavily to the ground, lying there like a wounded beast, unable to struggle to get up.

Seeing this, Chu Yunyi finally stopped what she was doing, a slightly smug smile playing on her lips. She then parted her lips and said…

"How about that? Now you know how powerful I am, right? I told you long ago, your speed is far too slow! How could you possibly dodge the attack of that archer with divine arrows? If you were a little faster, do you think he would still have a chance to hit you?"

Hua Qi slowly propped himself up from the ground, patted the dust off his clothes, and looked calm and composed, showing no anger at Chu Yunyi's words.

"Yes, you're right. I am indeed not fast enough. At the same level, being slower than your opponent is a clear disadvantage."

He is well aware of his shortcomings, can accept failures with equanimity, and is determined to improve this deficiency.

Chu Yunyi, still seemingly unsatisfied and not yet fully satisfied, enthusiastically suggested...

"Haha, in that case, do you want me to spar with you? After all, to improve speed, you need to practice with others more."

She felt a secret thrill; it was so satisfying to torment a Nascent Soul cultivator!

Although her opponent was only at the Golden Core stage, his strength was two minor realms higher than hers. In comparison, she was only at the second level of the Golden Core stage, making this victory all the more exciting for her.

"No need, I have my own methods for practice. You just focus on practicing your swordsmanship. As for those mental cultivation techniques and spiritual skills you obtained from the game, try not to use them if you can avoid it."

Unless it's truly a desperate, life-or-death situation, I always have a premonition that we might encounter more and more people with similar game systems in the future.

Hearing this, Chu Yunyi was somewhat confused.

"Huh? What's going on?! This game system isn't even intelligent. You have to explore to unlock its functions, and there's no way to ask for help when you encounter problems. I have absolutely no idea what this game system is supposed to do!"

Thinking of this, Chu Yunyi couldn't help but frown, and worries surged into her heart once again.

"Let me ask you bluntly, are you afraid of death? And not just any death, but someday in the future, or even when you don't know when you'll die, so something that's far in the future, what are you afraid of now?"

"Hmm... what you said is true, but people are always afraid of the unknown. But thinking about it carefully, everything is actually fine for now, and there doesn't seem to be any particularly serious problem."

Hua Qi smiled and comforted him.

"You think too much. Sometimes the more you think, the more anxious you become. Alright, let me recover my spiritual energy a bit, and then we'll practice again!"

After saying that, he reached out and gently stroked Chu Yunyi's hair, as if trying to give her a sense of reassurance.
