A holographic martial arts online game called "Jianghulu" suddenly mutated. Players cannot exit the game after entering it. Death means real death in reality. The game map is based on ancient rivers and lakes, integrating sect disputes, secret exploration, and martial arts inheritance. NPCs have high AI, and some even awaken their self-awareness, forming complex interest disputes with players.
- Martial arts relies on "comprehension" and "inheritance": players can acquire martial arts by killing bosses, cracking secrets, and becoming disciples of sects. However, the same set of martial arts can only be fully mastered by one person (to prevent overpopulation), and incomplete moves can be combined and innovated.
- Faction and neutrality: Players can join a sect (such as Shaolin, Wudang, Demon Cult) or become a lone ranger. Faction selection affects the direction of the mission and the attitude of NPCs. Betrayal of the camp will trigger the "Jianghu Hunt Order".
- Death penalty: After the player dies, all martial arts and equipment will be cleared, leaving only a small amount of "reputation in the world" (which can be exchanged for basic survival supplies). However, after dying three times, the player's consciousness will completely dissipate in reality.
