[The author is writing this kind of story for the first time and is stuck revising it. The story is expected to resume once enough chapters have been saved up.]
This story is also known as The Senior Brother Doesn't Want to Face The Fourth Calamity, The Possibility of Saving the Cultivation World Through Players, and The Monkey King and His Thousands Upon Thousands of Naughty Monkeys (not really).
~Blurb~
The cultivation world faces a crisis unseen in ten thousand years. Spiritual qi is vanishing, and cultivating immortality is becoming impossible. If things continue this way, the world is doomed.
After all the sects work together, they finally obtain their last chance: The Fourth Calamity.
If they can get creatures called "players" to treat the cultivation world like a game and actively take part in it, they can bring about a spiritual qi revival.
Everyone in the cultivation world: What are we waiting for? Let's do it!
And so, the first large-scale full-dive game, Heart's Inquiry, officially goes live.
*
The senior brother of Tianxian Sect has cultivated for eighty-eight years. He is cheerful and optimistic, and known throughout the sect as a genuinely good person.
He thinks nothing can faze him anymore, until his unscrupulous master tells him, "Dear disciple, I'm getting old. I'll leave the important task of managing the players to you."
With that, the old man immediately goes into seclusion, escaping the complications of reality.
Senior Brother: "?"
He looks back at the mountains teeming with players, and once again: "?"
And so begins the long, ill-fated relationship between Tianxian Sect's senior brother and his "junior brothers and sisters"...
*[Player Forum]:
#Serious discussion: Why can't the Beast Taming Sect raise cockroaches?#
#Can someone tell me how to revive after getting struck dead by heavenly lightning? Waiting online, urgent!#
#Aaaah! Tianxianzong's senior brother is so handsome! Can I take him home as my husband?#
Senior Brother rubs his forehead: No, you can't, and don't even think about it.
...Once again, I'm dealing with a headache caused by the players.
[TIPS]
1. Features The Fourth Calamity. Male protagonist, no romance. There are plenty of supporting character viewpoints, since it's about The Fourth Calamity.
2. The tone switches between comedy and seriousness, and there may be plot holes.
3. Please keep writing advice moderate. The author is fragile, so if you don't like it, please don't hurt them.
4. Your favorites and comments are my motivation. Sending love~
Theme: Never give up, and love life.
Players are asked to use the names of normal humans when going through the game plot. Jpg
Nice! Why doesn't anyone comment? I really like this relaxed and pleasant atmosphere.

The setting is fun, but I feel like the memes could be denser () Don't pity me for being a delicate flower, let me be overwhelmed by the overwhelming memes!
