Chapter 40 has been updated again, and new players have arrived.
"StarCraft Master, I heard you were drooling over that Cave Spider King, is that true?"
On the online game forum for Cultivation Online, the phrase "I love cilantro" is like a thunderclap falling into the sea, creating a huge uproar.
Running Knife Mouse: "Starry Sky Boss, you're really hungry."
Cangfengmingyue: "Can any expert explain what happened? I'm really curious!"
When the stars of humanity shine brightly: "...people can actually laugh when they're speechless."
Instantly activates Celestial Mode: "Brothers of the Stars, I believe in you, because I knew you before the rumors."
"After all, I'm the one who started the rumors."
This statement was met with cheers from the forum.
Seeing that the atmosphere was quite good, Zhou Yi posted the long-edited update announcement on the pinned post in the forum.

Yi Tian: "Cultivation Online has received a version update. For detailed update information, please check the pinned post on the forum."
The moment the Zhouyi update announcement was released, the atmosphere of the entire forum was instantly ignited again.
Running Knife Mouse: "!!! Me, a mouse, can I cultivate immortality now?"
Salty Fish Never Turns Over: "Holy crap, there's a hidden plot... I'm a plot-driven viewer, he really... I'm going to cry!"
Green Hills Remain: "Secondary profession? Does that mean I'm going to become a talisman master?!"
Cangfeng Mingyue: "That's great! Finally, someone is here to help me farm."
A fan of cilantro: "Waaaaah, why am I the only one who gets hurt? Why, why?!"
……
Zhou Yi shut down the forum, let out a long sigh, and adjusted the distribution of luck points to a 50/50 split.
The wise adapt to the times, and the intelligent adjust to circumstances.
Zhou Yi knew in his heart that he had to make changes now, otherwise he would be unable to cope with the future crisis.
A day passes in the blink of an eye.
The next morning, Zhou Yi's courtyard became bustling with activity.
"Holy crap, this game is so damn realistic!"
"I heard you can even fly on a sword? Really? That sounds amazing!"
"Master Broken Silver, I'm your fan! Quickly, show me your Myriad Soul Banner..."
"What did that guy just say? The Silver Broken Boss was clearly using the Human Emperor's Flag!"
Zhou Yi looked at the 20 new players in front of him, somewhat speechless. The quality of these new players wasn't good either.
Recalling the five Silver Shards he had summoned, Zhou Yi couldn't help but sigh.
Good leeks are really hard to find.
Returning to the present moment, Zhou Yi smiled and stepped forward, addressing the players:
"Today, you have entered my Qingxuan Sect..."
Before he could finish speaking, the players were already in an uproar.
The little player with the "Running Rat" ID above his head stared wide-eyed, covering his mouth in disbelief with one hand.
"Holy crap... Is this the Sect Master? He's so handsome!"
"Look at the sword at the sect leader's waist, it's so cool!"
"Nonsense, that's the sect leader's natal weapon, the Azure Cloud Sword that has saved countless powerful figures!"
Upon hearing this, the stars standing nearby turned grim, and their lips twitched slightly.
You can praise the sect leader all you want, but why do you have to drag me into this?
Zhou Yi, sensing the players' enthusiasm, also improved his expression. However, to expedite progress, he reverted to his stern demeanor and continued:
"Once you join my Qingxuan Sect, you must always abide by the sect's rules and regulations. You must not act recklessly or rashly."
"At the same time, you must take it upon yourselves to revitalize the sect, slay demonic beasts, and diligently cultivate. Do not slacken your efforts. Do you understand?"
Upon hearing Zhou Yi's serious voice, the players quickly abandoned their nonchalant attitudes and replied:
"This disciple will certainly follow the Patriarch's teachings diligently, strive in cultivation, and revitalize the sect!"
Zhou Yi nodded in satisfaction, his gaze falling on Qianlong and the others.
Even if players want to mine and farm, they still need to have a certain level of cultivation.
after all……
These are all spirit mines and spirit fields. Without cultivation, you can't mine the ore or turn over the fields.
Now that Zhou Yi has summoned the player, he only has 30 points of luck left.
He now needs to accumulate these points to break through to the late stage of Qi Refining, and cannot use them to improve the players' cultivation.
The best solution right now is to have veteran players like Qianlong lead the team to level up.
There were quite a few roaming demonic beasts within the sect, so we decided to take advantage of the situation and clear them out. Anyway, with Qianlong and the others' current strength, it shouldn't be a big problem.
With that in mind, Zhou Yi immediately assigned the task of guiding disciples to Qianlong and the others.
Having completed the mission once, Qianlong and his group were naturally familiar with the route and quickly split into two teams, each leading 10 disciples.
However, it is worth mentioning that Li Fan was specially kept behind by Zhou Yi this time.
"I wonder what instructions the Sect Master may have for me by keeping me here?"
Li Fan frowned slightly, a hint of confusion flashing in his eyes, and he subconsciously scratched his head. However, after a moment's thought, he quickly figured out the key to it.
Honestly, Li Fan almost forgot that he was also a game tester.
Based on the introduction of the new map during the update, the fact that the sect leader has kept him behind must mean that there was an important matter, similar to the previous map exploration, that needs to be announced.
Sure enough, the next moment Zhou Yi's voice came from in front of him:
"I have important business to discuss with you. The sect is currently unclear about the surrounding information and urgently needs to place informants around us."
"I intend to send you to Lianyungang City to be stationed there permanently, responsible for gathering information. Are you willing?"
As Zhou Yi finished speaking, Li Fan's gaze froze completely.
Are you a permanent resident of Lianyungangfang?
He had never even thought of that.
But remembering that he was supposed to be triggering the game tester's exclusive mission, Li Fan immediately cupped his hands and nodded in response:
"This disciple offers some silver coins and is willing to go to Lianyun Market to stay and gather information for the sect."
His voice was strong and clear, full of confidence and determination.
It was as if to say that Li Fan was certain he could complete this task.
Zhou Yi nodded in satisfaction upon hearing this, but then added something Li Fan had never expected:
"However, intelligence gathering is only one part of the mission. You have an even more important objective on your way to Lianyun Market..."
At this point, Zhou Yi's tone became serious, and his eyes grew even more profound.
Li Fan's heart tightened, and his palms, which were placed behind his back, began to sweat.
He really couldn't understand what else he could do in Lianyunfang City besides trading or gathering intelligence.
Soon, Zhou Yi's voice rang in Li Fan's ears, his tone calm but sending a shiver down his spine.
"Your other mission is to secretly stir up trouble in Lianyun Market without revealing your sect."
"The best targets are the three major families, especially the Zhou family."
