To Harm the Righteous Path, I Had No Choice But to Make Games

chapter 232 - You Want Me to Make a Horror Game?


The Heavenly Dao Cup competition concluded perfectly.As expected, Lu Ze claimed the title of “Chosen One.”In his previous life, this would be equivalent to an FMVP.The powerful Cultivation Technique rewarded to the champion was shared among the team.However, Lu Ze unexpectedly received a separate copy.According to the Fragment of the Heavenly Dao, this was an additional reward for the “Chosen One.”“Task complete!”“Host successfully gained renown throughout the world and obtained an ancient Secret Treasure!”“Reward: Heavenly Evolution Jade (can complete incomplete Cultivation Techniques)”“So, this thing is the Magic Treasure that can complete incomplete Cultivation Techniques?”Lu Ze curiously examined the warm, subtle, Chaos-colored jade stone in his palm.This was the item rewarded by the System, but unfortunately, it could only be used once.It perfectly matched the incomplete Cultivation Technique given by the Fragment of the Heavenly Dao.The incomplete Cultivation Technique bestowed by the Fragment of the Heavenly Dao was named 【Formless Derivation Realm】.It was said that when cultivated to the extreme, it could turn the illusory into reality and reality into the illusory.This indeed aligned well with his method of entering the Dao through Illusion Realms.“You mere ant, how could this Heavenly Dao specially choose for you? You merely got lucky and happened to draw a suitable one.”Facing Lu Ze’s inquiry, the Fragment of the Heavenly Dao replied thus.… …Lu Ze drew the final stroke on the scroll.Then, he let out a long breath and exited the Illusion Realm.“Now, I can be a hands-off boss for a while.”Lu Ze stretched his body.The Lingxiao Sect’s champion skin was complete.The ink-wash style, combined with the distinct features of the different immortal peaks corresponding to the Disciples, had a unique charm.Zhong Yi, as the coach, was given a Wuji Sword Saint skin, which fulfilled his dream of becoming a Sword Saint.With the champion skin completed, the production of various modes was also finished.The upcoming 【Unlimited Firepower】 and 【Soul Arena】 would undoubtedly spark a new wave.The exhilarating combat rhythm, the unknown variables in battles, and the unique experience compared to regular Canyon gameplay were refreshing.… …Time passed quickly.With the impetus from the Heavenly Dao’s rewards, the e-sports industry, or rather, “Illusion Sports” as it was more appropriately called here, flourished in the Celestial Cultivation World.The number of players for “"Clash of Immortals and Demons"” grew daily.Demonic Value was accumulated faster and faster, and in greater quantities.“At this rate, I can probably advance to Nascent Soul in about two months…”Looking at the Demonic Value in the backend, Lu Ze secretly nodded.This advancement speed was quite terrifying.It was no exaggeration to say that relying solely on “"Clash of Immortals and Demons",” Lu Ze could live off his gains, lie idle in the Sect, and still continuously achieve Breakthroughs…Of course, Lu Ze knew in his heart.Relying on just one game would inevitably lead to a gradual loss of players.The number of players in the Celestial Cultivation World was not comparable to his previous life.In his previous life, with billions of potential players, there was no way to exhaust them, and fresh blood was everywhere.But the Celestial Cultivation World was different.Without continuously introducing new content and new games, the player count would sooner or later decline.Although he said that, Lu Ze still wanted to slack off appropriately.“Anyway, “"Clash of Immortals and Demons"” is enough for me to rest for half a year, and there’s nothing else…”Before Lu Ze finished speaking, the familiar System voice sounded again.“The Demonic Path has discovered an extremely Yin evil entity in a Secret Realm in the northern part of Xianyuan Continent, and the evil entity has been strengthened! As the Demonic Path’s Saint, the Host should seize this opportunity to launch a fatal blow against the Righteous Path!”“Task: Use the power of the evil entity to corrupt the minds of Cultivators and destroy their psychological defenses.”“Task Goal: Accumulate 100,000 Fear Points within thirty days (Current: 0 / 100,000)”“Task Reward: Random High-Tier Cultivation Technique x1”“…”Looking at the task prompt, Lu Ze’s mouth twitched slightly.Such continuous occurrences made Lu Ze feel as if Senior Brother Zhong had possessed him.“Damn it, it’s the Great Dao Truth Incantation!”Lu Ze slapped his forehead, suddenly remembering the Cultivation Technique he obtained from Zhong Yi.No wonder he was becoming more and more of a jinx!“Damn it, I won’t practice it anymore!!”Lu Ze said indignantly.It seemed the System wouldn’t let him slack off.Then he could only continue being a hard worker.“Evil entity power, Fear Points…”Lu Ze pinched his chin, deep in thought.This was telling him to make a horror game!There were too many horror games in his previous life.But the problem was, most famous game titles were modern and Western-style.Chinese horror games existed, but they were few.And almost all of them were puzzle-solving, story-driven types.Leaving aside how much fear these story-driven games provided, their timeliness would certainly be much lower.“I need a quick, impactful, and sufficiently terrifying horror game…”Lu Ze closed his eyes, muttering to himself.Almost instantly, a game name flashed through his mind:“Phasmophobia.”The game mode was primarily based on investigating clues and deducing the type of ghost.A single game lasted about 10 minutes, which perfectly matched Lu Ze’s current expectations.The only thing Lu Ze needed to do was localize it.This was simple enough.After all,Chinese ghosts, whether in terms of category or eeriness, were far more formidable than those cheap Western ghosts.Cultivators aren’t afraid of ghosts?That’s because their own cultivation is strong.Once you enter the Illusion Realm, it’s like entering a deep sea; from then on, cultivation becomes a stranger.Inside the Illusion Realm, they would face ghosts with their Physical Body; whether they would be afraid then was hard to say.Even if Cultivators had seen too many evil entities like ghosts and become immune…That wouldn’t be a problem either.When Lu Ze was creating °• N 𝑜 v 𝑒 l i g h t •° “The Way of the Devil Slaughter,” he had obtained a Formation from the System:The Soul-Frightening Emotion-Drawing Formation.Using this Formation as the Foundation of the Illusion Realm, it would be difficult for Cultivators, whose Spiritual Qi was isolated, not to be afraid…Thinking of this, Lu Ze had already made up his mind.He would create a localized “Phasmophobia”!“Ghosts played by cyber-Souls? Doesn’t feel right…”With the goal set, Lu Ze had already begun to think deeply about how to make Cultivators feel fear.“Ghosts must naturally be played by ghosts!”Lu Ze came to this conclusion and then directly sought out his Master, Nangong Yuan.“What? You want to catch ghosts?”Facing Lu Ze’s inquiry, Nangong Yuan was slightly stunned.His lazy Disciple always found excuses not to accept any Sect tasks assigned to him, spending his days immersed in the Illusion Realm.Why was he, for once, actively asking to take on a ghost-catching task today?“Yes, that’s right, the more sinister, the better!”Lu Ze nodded vigorously.“It’s good that you want to contribute to the Sect… but wouldn’t ghost-catching tasks be too simple?”Nangong Yuan was full of doubt.Creatures like “ghosts,” in the mortal world, were indeed extremely terrifying.But in the eyes of Cultivators, they were just ordinary evil entities.As long as one’s Spiritual Qi was strong enough, ghosts could not touch a Cultivator in the slightest, let alone bewitch their minds…Therefore, tasks related to ghosts were at most taken by those in the Foundation Establishment stage.Moreover, ghost-related tasks involved quite tedious investigation and evidence collection, often being the last to be taken.Lu Ze was currently in the Late Stage Golden Core, and a powerful one at that.Taking on such tasks would surely be overkill, wouldn’t it?“How about I recommend an easier but high-reward Golden Core task for you? Or a Nascent Soul-stage team task, so you can get a reward?”Nangong Yuan suggested.“I won’t!”Lu Ze shook his head decisively.“How can one sweep the world if one cannot even sweep a room! I want to shed my blood and sacrifice myself for the Sect!!”“This…”Nangong Yuan was astonished, even feeling a slight touch of emotion.When had his lazy Disciple become so considerate of the Sect…“In that case, I will now find the most malevolent tasks…”Nangong Yuan thought for a moment, then added.“However, do not interfere with the recent ghost tasks near Xianyuan Continent.”“It is said that there are unusual movements in the Yin lands there, and even Nascent Soul Cultivators might perish…”— — — —【Seeking ghost ideas (any Chinese horror ideas are welcome~)】
