Chapter 8: Two Opinions, One Advice

just reached the second level of Earth and Heaven realm, but he has already obtained divinity!However, Lu Kong's words caused Yin Yuehan to raise an eyebrow slightly.She was a little puzzled and aske..."A wisp of a wandering soul What do you mean" Lu Kong frowned, looking at the apothecary owner with some confusion.

He said somewhat uncertainly, “Are all of you natives dead”

The apothecary looked at Lu Kong, then at the other players, and then seemed to fall into reminiscence.

She smiled and said, "When you entered the cosmic game, you should have received a reminder from the cosmic server, right Demonic energy will invade reality."

Lu Kong nodded. "Yes," he said.

The pharmacist smiled and said, "We were like that back then too. Once demonic energy appears, it only increases. The monsters appearing in reality will become stronger and stronger. If we can't withstand those monsters, what do you think will happen"

The air in the apothecary suddenly grew still.

Whether it was the land, the sky, or other players, everyone held their breath at this moment.

They had already thought of that situation.

When the monster cannot be resisted, then there is only one future.

Destruction.

"It seems you know the consequences. Yes, our planet was consumed by demonic energy. We were lucky; though our bodies were destroyed, our souls were taken in by the cosmic server and ultimately became the inhabitants of this place."

To Lu Kong's surprise, the apothecary's answer was unexpected.

I was a little dazed for a moment.

But after all, being human for two lifetimes, Lu Kong quickly reacted.

He took a deep breath.

Originally, my only goal was to make money after graduation, pay off the debts my parents owed, and give my mom a good life.

It seems like I need to work harder and become stronger.

Only by becoming strong enough can we protect ourselves and our loved ones when the demonic energy invades.

Lu Kong made up his mind in his heart and then wanted to ask some more questions.

But he found that he was completely lost in this world and didn't know what to ask at all for a moment.

He thought for a moment, then smiled and said, "Boss, we should all be human beings, right We're the same race. Give me some advice, okay What should I do next"

The pharmacist looked at Lu Kong in some surprise and smiled, "You're quite a handsome young man, very smart."

She knew that the Yuanxing humans didn't understand much about the whole world, not even magic.

And this human from the front, knowing their own shortcomings, directly asked her for advice. This is undoubtedly a very clever way to do it.

The pharmacist smiled and said, "Actually, there isn't much you need to do. I like you, so let me give you two pieces of advice. First, level up to level 10 as soon as possible. At level 10, you can advance. When you challenge the advancement, try to choose high-difficulty challenges as much as possible. That way, after you advance, your strength will surpass that of ordinary people."

Lu Kong nodded, putting the advanced matters in his mind.

The second opinion and the advanced stage are also related. Currently, on the Hunter's Novice Continent, there are four cosmic races, and the resources of the entire continent are finite. In order to improve their own planetary and racial strength, you naturally need to compete for resources for your race. Once a player of a certain race reaches level one, their race will release qualifications for the second public beta, allowing more players of that race to enter the game. This means that in the future competition for resources among the four races, there will be a significant advantage.

The apothecary owner pondered for a moment, then said solemnly: "Remember, when demonic energy invades reality, it takes the combined efforts of an entire race to have any hope of resisting. In my years playing this game, I've seen too many races, consumed by internal strife, ultimately weakening themselves and being swallowed by demonic energy. I hope you humans of Yuanxing don't follow that same path."

Li Kong thoughtfully nodded, he naturally understood the weaknesses of humanity.

Internal contradictions will always exist.

However, there's nothing he can do about it now.

Let's wait until he is strong enough.

What he can do now is to provide as much equipment as possible to the Dàxiá military and some high-ranking officials.

Thus, in the future when demonic energy invades, Great Xia will also have a certain amount of strength to resist.

“Alright, those are the two pieces of advice. Essentially, it boils down to leveling up first. Oh... and one more piece of advice for you: try completing some achievements in the game. There are special rewards for that. You're likely a prodigy among your species, with perhaps exceptional soul talents. Maybe you have a chance to complete some achievements and unleash your full potential. Give it your best shot. Don't wait until your planet is consumed by demonic energy before you regret it.”

After hearing what the pharmacist had to say, Lu Kong felt a sudden increase in pressure.

He nodded solemnly: “Thank you for reminding me, boss. I will!”

After finishing, he smiled and said: “Well then boss, I’m off to get busy. I’ll be back to take care of your business next time! Oh, by the way, do you have any tasks for me”

The apothecary glanced at Lu Kong, letting out a cold smile. "With your ability, you wouldn't even be able to finish the task if I gave you one."

Lukong: "..."

He's a guest, at least! How could you treat him like this!

He smiled helplessly: "Alright, I'll come find you when I'm strong enough!"

After finishing his words, Lu Kong turned and left!

As he passed by several stunned players, Lu Kong hesitated for a moment before speaking, "You all heard what I just said, right Those two opinions and the one piece of advice, you can spread them around too. That way, the players of Yuan Xing will have enough pressure."

Under pressure, there is motivation.

Several players were suddenly awakened.

They looked at Lu Kong, their eyes filled with a hint of respect.

Even a pharmacist, who is well-versed in the world, said that Lu Kong was a prodigy among their Yuanxing human race!

Such a person will definitely not be ordinary in the future.

And he also offered them free access to game information here. Just with this gesture, they could be convinced.

A middle-aged player nodded seriously and said, "Okay, brother, we'll pass it on!"

Lu Kong nodded and turned away.

On the road, Lu Kong thought for a moment and then sent the pharmacy owner's words in a private message to Wang Bing and Liu Qiang.

They are both influential people in reality, especially Wang Bing. If he were to report it upwards, with Xia Huang's great talent and vision, he would certainly pay attention to it.

As for how the two of them would react, Lu Kong just couldn't control it.

He has to keep leveling up.

Set yourself a small goal, level up to level ten as quickly as possible!

Then achieve the highest level of career change!

…………

The Grand Xia Palace.

The Hall of Divine Weapons.

The Summer Emperor sat upon his throne, gazing down at the silent ministers below. His face was serene, but his eyes held an awe-inspiring majesty that was beyond imagining.

They are waiting, waiting for information about the game.

The moment the public beta access for the Cosmic Game became available, Emperor Xia ordered a census of all Da Xia soldiers who received access. This marked the establishment of the XuanNiao Army.

The Xuan Bird Army was also the first to enter the game.

Their objective is two-fold.

One is to improve one's skills in the game.

...and second, to gather all information about the game.

And the moment the Xuánniǎo Army entered the game, the Xia Emperor summoned all his officials for a court meeting.

Everyone in the Shenwu Palace waited, waiting for news from the game to spread. It was analyzed by officials and the Xia Emperor together to come up with appropriate countermeasures.

It's been two hours in real time, and four hours in the game.

As the time neared dawn, Emperor Xia led by example. Even though his officials were exhausted, they dared not complain.

Just then, a tall man burst in.

"Your Majesty, the Xuan Bird Army has just sent word!"

Upon hearing this, Emperor Xia was startled and exclaimed, "Bring it here!" far. How could we humans possibly resist Joining the demons not only grants us a long life and immense power, but even immortality within this universe. With so many benefits, why would I refuse"Lu K...
