Building a Cultivation Sect from Scratch

On the gaming forums, veteran players were sharpening their knives, having spent days furiously criticizing «Chronicles of the Ten Continents»—an open-world MMORPG cultivation game that claimed to crush the “Big Three” gaming studios. However, when the servers finally opened—they discovered the Big Three really were like little brothers in comparison!

An awe-inspiring otherworldly realm unfolded before them: the Ten Continents within the sea and three Islands beyond, and a map so breathtakingly vast it left players dizzy. The game featured a gorgeous world of immortal cultivation filled with celestial beings, ghosts, mythical beasts, and demons…

And most importantly, there was the «World’s Greatest Immortal Sect»—built from absolutely nothing through the blood, sweat, and tears of countless players!

“Master, Master, why is our sect called the World’s Greatest Immortal Sect?”

“Perhaps because… we have too many people?”

Fang Xianyu, who had restarted the game for a second playthrough, gazed lovingly at the mass of self-brainwashing leeks—er, players—with deep satisfaction, deciding it was time to lead this massive player base on a chaotic rampage through the cultivation world.

A newbie glanced at the real-time player count—five million—and scratched their head in confusion.

“You’re calling an organization with at least five million people a ‘cultivation sect’?”
