[Game Invasion + Leveling Up + Sacrifice + Ruthless Protagonist + Wish Fulfillment]
"The first domestically developed AAA martial arts fantasy epic! One hundred percent realism, or we pay with our lives!"
Reading this outrageously over-the-top ad, Ye Xiu laughed. He wanted to see what kind of game would dare make such a claim.
So he deliberately clicked on it and casually chose the Jianghu Fisherman class.
When he opened his eyes again, Ye Xiu was sitting in a rickety boat on White Dragon Pool, with nothing but an old fishing rod in his hand.
The good news: the ad hadn't lied. This place really was one hundred percent real.
The bad news: this wasn't a game, and there was no exit button.
Millions of players had vanished from the real world, forced to scatter across this strange martial fantasy world, where sects ran rampant and demons lurked everywhere.
While everyone else was busy seeking masters and learning swordplay, Ye Xiu discovered that every time he cast his line, he gained class experience.
Rare aquatic creatures he caught himself could also be offered to Jiang Ze in exchange for attributes, skills, and even mysterious gifts in return.
Firetail fish for experience, blood-patterned clams for water magic, and jiao fish for dominion over an underwater estate.
Starting with a broken fishing rod, Ye Xiu diligently trained in martial arts, turning the despised Fisherman class into a path to becoming a Martial Saint who commanded the world's waterways.
