Immortal Cultivation Begins with a Game

I was diagnosed with a terminal illness, but I didn’t die. Instead, I unlocked a cultivation game that opened a path to another world and gave me the chance to become immortal. My name is Li Chaosheng. I had end-stage leukemia and only minutes left to live. Just as the doctors pronounced me beyond saving, I unlocked a little xianxia game. I could send my soul into a xianxia world, and completing quests would reward me with extra life points. Back in reality, the game took control of my body. As long as my life points didn’t hit zero, I wouldn’t die. So, to the doctors’ astonishment, I hopped out of my hospital bed and sauntered out of the hospital. But my crisis wasn’t over. My life was still counting down, and I could only survive by constantly earning life points in the xianxia world. And so, reality gained an immortal man, while the xianxia world gained a cultivator with an extraordinarily sharp mind. PS: The xianxia world in this novel is set during the Tianqi era of the Ming Dynasty.
