Cultivating Immortality in a Full-Dive Game While Flirting With the Boss

Lin Shuang did two major things in the immersive cultivation game Qinghai Moon:

1. Somehow became number one on the combat leaderboard

2. Got close to her villainous NPC senior brother

After she took a hit for her senior brother, finally raising his affection level toward her to 100, she discovered that her account had been forcibly deleted because her trial game pod had expired. Her in-game fake death had become a real one.

Lin Shuang: "..." What else could she do? Save up and buy new equipment.

A year later, on the very day she finally bought a new game pod, someone blocked her way.

The newcomer wore black, with long hair and a sword at his waist.

A handsome young man stood there quietly, watching her.

The man came closer, step by step, and finally stopped a fist's distance away.

He lowered his head. His crimson eyes held deep despair and sorrow. Like a wounded beast, he asked in a hoarse voice, "Why did you abandon me?"

Yue Yun had thought he would spend his whole life alone.

Burdened with the accusation of murdering his father and mother, he became a calamity shunned by the entire cultivation world because of a small image-recording stone. People regarded him as a demon.

He managed to survive by having his spiritual power sealed.

His sect was in decline. Though his fellow disciples treated him kindly, they could not help keeping their distance and fearing him.

Then a silly but exceptionally talented junior sister joined the sect.

She wasn't afraid of the infamy surrounding him. Instead, she went out of her way to get close to him and insisted on becoming a sword cultivator under his guidance.

He taught her cultivation and swordsmanship. Though he struggled to push her away, he still couldn't deny what he truly felt for her.

He had thought his coldness would make her grow distant, but when danger struck, she was willing to give her life for him.

The moment he watched her stop breathing, the violent demonic energy within him could no longer be suppressed and erupted completely. It turned out he had demonic blood in his veins: he was the Demon Lord the demon race had been waiting for.

After falling to the demonic path, he searched the Nine Immortal Isles and the Six Demon Wastes, seeking a way to bring her back to life.

Then, in a half-awake dream, he saw her again, but there was a man standing beside her.

When he once more crossed that expanse of pure white and struggled toward her, he learned that the world he lived in was only a game.

And he was nothing more than a villain in that game.

1. Extensive original worldbuilding. Not a traditional cultivation-game story.

2. A laid-back genius smart-device repairer heroine x a seemingly aloof but actually purehearted sword cultivator senior brother
