Song Jiulai traveled to a world of immortal cultivation and became the sole heir to a small, dilapidated sect.
With no money, no spirit stones, and no resources, she was so poor that even a dog would despise her.
Fortunately, a golden finger system appeared, demanding she lead the sect to prosperity, promising to boost her power. And then, it was gone.
Not even a single low-grade spirit stone was given. Song Jiulai:
Why don't I just jump off a cliff and start over?
System: No rush. You can find people from other worlds to join your sect and help you, as long as they're willing.
Song Jiulai: ...any world will do?
System: Yes, but they must not reveal my existence or anything about the quest.
Song Jiulai: I have a plan!

In 2024, a gaming website on Blue Star
announced the official launch of an open beta test for the massive new virtual immortal cultivation game "Starting with a Broken Sect." Currently limited to 50 players! First come, first served!
Players: ???
What kind of crappy game dares to call itself virtual? These days, manufacturers are using every possible means to boost their advertising!
A few days later, the trending search topic #Mom, give me a spot# was trending.
Mom, I'm dying, and before I die, I want to play Po Zong Men. Please fulfill this dying wish of mine!
At first, everyone thought this was just a game.
What if I don't have enough cultivation at the beginning? No problem, we'll develop technology first and use it to fight against the immortals!
But let's make it clear, everyone plays games.
If you guys take off on a flying sword in real life, I'll be furious!
[Steady as an old man, never change maps, backstab]
You get the Ten Poisons Strengthening Body Powder, which is extremely poisonous. If you swallow it in one gulp, you will die.
You get the Bloodthirsty Sword Technique, but practicing it consumes your lifespan. If you practice the Bloodthirsty Sword Technique, you die.
You got the Bliss Mirror. If you want to practice this skill, you must castrate yourself first. You waved your hand and stabbed yourself.
You accidentally offended a powerful enemy, severed your own meridians, and were buried in the grave;
You need to refine Yanren alive. You looked at yourself and silently performed an operation on yourself.
You have obtained the secret art of the bardo, and you must sign a contract with the devil to do unspeakable things...
Once you travel through time, you are promised to be blessed with the gift of immortality, not only having an endless lifespan, but also being immortal.
Faced with the crisis-ridden world of immortal cultivation, Xu Nuo chose a life-saving cultivation path that was indifferent to others.
Others fought tooth and nail for the four things they needed to help them cultivate immortality: wealth, law, companion, and land. However, Xu Nuo was dismissive.
He just wanted to be a nobody, to live in peace and quiet in his own tavern and grow steadily.
He originally wanted to stay invincible until he could escape from seclusion and roam freely in the world. Until five hundred years later, the sky showed murderous intentions, Jupiter fell from the earth, and all kinds of demons and monsters appeared on the scene!
Xu Nuo suddenly discovered that this was actually the legendary Journey to the West!
But he is already in the game!
