Dragon Scale Island, respawn point.

As a white light flickered, Jiang Su entered the game.

After savoring the shock brought by the opening CG, Jiang Su began to study the game content.

Recalling the instructions in the Night Watchman Manual, he realized that compared to ordinary players, he possessed an additional hidden shop.

Thus, Jiang Su opened the shop list.

A dazzling array of goods immediately came into view.

There were all sorts of strange and peculiar items, gorgeous equipment, colorful potions, and more...

However, Jiang Su's gaze focused on a special sub-category labeled "Night Watchman Goods."

Upon clicking it, the shop interface shifted.

A series of brand-new items and equipment appeared before his eyes.

[Five Thunder Method - Intermediate]

Technique Details: After completing the intermediate advancement, the lightning summoned by the Five Thunder Method will carry Haoran Righteousness, possessing strong lethality against yin and evil creatures.

Technique Price: 3,000 Soul Power (Soul Power purchase only)

[Demon Subduing Incantation - Intermediate (Mental Method)]

Technique Details: After completing the intermediate advancement, the quality of spiritual energy within the body will be improved, enhancing the practitioner's physical fitness and providing effect bonuses when casting spells.

Technique Price: 5,000 Soul Power (Soul Power purchase only)

[Heaven and Earth Boundless - Intermediate]

Technique Details: After completing the intermediate advancement, the "Bing" character seal will be obtained, which can significantly increase the power of the weapon in hand.

Technique Note: The Heaven and Earth Boundless advancement is divided into nine levels, from low to high: Lin, Bing, Dou, Zhe, Jie, Zhen, Lie, Qian, Xing. Upon reaching perfection, one will receive the blessing of the Nine Character Truths.

[Exorcism Sword (Red Quality)]

Taoist Qi (Equipment Special Skill): The Taoist Qi stored within the sword can automatically protect the master. The specific defensive power depends on the quality of spiritual power within the wielder. Once the Taoist Qi is exhausted, the wielder must replenish it with their own spiritual power, which the sword automatically converts into Taoist Qi.

[Demon Subduing Robe (Red Quality)]

[Haoran Righteousness Art (Primary Passive)]

[Soul Summoning Guidance (Primary Spell)]

[Sword Control Art (Primary Spell)]

[Tao Follows Nature (Primary Passive)]

[Cloud Soaring Technique (Primary Spell)]

Looking at the various goods in the Night Watchman shop, Jiang Su's eyes turned green with envy.

Spells, equipment, potions, items, and more...

Not only were there advancements for the spells he had inherited, but there was also a massive selection of spells and items for him to choose from.

If he could obtain these items from the shop, Jiang Su felt he wouldn't need to fear any demons or evil spirits; wouldn't it just be a slaughter with his eyes closed?

While browsing, Jiang Su also discovered that, except for various buff potions, almost all items in the Night Watchman shop required Soul Power to purchase.

Glancing at his Soul Coin balance, Jiang Su couldn't help but sigh.

The feeling of being able to see but not obtain was truly unpleasant.

Finally, Jiang Su's gaze focused on an option at the very bottom of the "Night Watchman Goods" column.

[Strength Conversion]

Function Introduction: Allows the manifestation of in-game strength and equipment into reality.

Conversion Cost (Divine Power): Each conversion depends on the strength; the stronger the character's strength in the game and the higher the quality of the equipped gear, the more Divine Power is required for conversion.

Conversion Note: One can choose the conversion percentage or select individual pieces of equipment to complete the conversion.

Curious, Jiang Su immediately clicked the "Convert" button.

Suddenly, a game prompt appeared in his mind:

[Game Prompt: Strength conversion failed. The character's strength in the game is the same as in reality; conversion cannot be completed.]

So that was it!

At this moment, Jiang Su understood how to convert his in-game strength into reality.

However, Jiang Su still harbored doubts in his heart.

Why would that mysterious existence want him to grow and become stronger through a game?

Could there be something strange about this world?

As a cultivator, he could clearly sense the "spirit particles" drifting through the air of the Boundless Realm. Comparing this to the thin spiritual energy in reality, Jiang Su began to form a hypothesis.

Driven by curiosity, Jiang Su was eager to try, unable to wait to start earning Divine Power and Soul Power.

After closing the shop interface, Jiang Su began to study the other functions of the game, preparing to experience its content.

A moment later, Jiang Su took action.

Following the beginner prompts, he first retrieved a pickaxe from the earthen hut, then stepped toward the "Abandoned Mine" to the east.

The rise of an Exorcist Master began with mining.

Jiang Su did not mind the crude start at all.

Compared to fighting demons and evil spirits, he felt that being able to grow stronger just by mining was practically a luxury.

He toured the scenery of the other world along the way, encountering many players, but Jiang Su did not interact with them, heading straight for his destination.

Ten minutes later, Jiang Su arrived at the entrance of the Abandoned Mine.

Dressed in linen clothes and carrying a mining shovel, he immediately stepped into the mine.

Holding a kerosene lamp, he groped his way forward through the pitch-black tunnel until he reached the first level of the mining area.

At this time, the interior was already busy with the figures of many players.

After looking around, Jiang Su found an empty spot, raised his shovel, and began to mine.

With a bit of luck, it took him less than 20 minutes to dig up a Level 1 ore.

Glancing at the ore's attributes, Jiang Su beamed with joy.

Others mined to play the game better, but he mined to extend his life.

The currency exchanged from the ore would provide him with immense help in confronting demons and evil spirits, as well as in enhancing his own strength.

Therefore, with every swing of the shovel, Jiang Su automatically imagined:

Life +1 minute

Life +1 minute

Life +1 minute

Because of this, not only did he not feel tired, but he actually found mining more enjoyable the longer he did it.

This was a joy that other players could not experience.

Lost in the delight of mining, Jiang Su did not notice a group of players approaching him.

"Do you guys recognize this old man with white hair? Why is he occupying our Alliance's spot?"

"I don't recognize him. Does anyone else?"

"I don't either. He's probably a solo player."

"Whether he's a solo player or from an enemy alliance, this is our territory. If we don't recognize him, we treat him as an enemy. Take him out!"

While Jiang Su was still bewildered, he received a heavy blow to the back of his head.

Turning around, he saw a group of players looking at him with malicious intent:

"Which alliance are you from? Don't you know this is the territory of the Fire Wolf? Who told you to mine here!"

Hearing this, Jiang Su was instantly incensed.

This old man is a Night Watchman appointed by the mysterious person; what status do you lot have to compare with that!

"Who made that rule? This old man only knows this is a beginner resource point; how did it become your territory?"

Looking at Jiang Su, who was putting on airs, the expressions of the players shifted instantly.

"Beat him up!"

Suddenly, a group of figures rushed toward Jiang Su, beginning to punch and kick him.

Initially, Jiang Su wanted to fight back.

But he quickly realized that the players' strength was far greater than he had imagined.

In particular, the "Blood Gladiator" unit had more strength than he did, and their punches landing on his body made him wince in pain.

Realizing that this was not reality and that every unit summoned by a player possessed strength surpassing his own, Jiang Su immediately lost his nerve.

"Stop, this old man surrenders! I admit defeat!"

"Ouch, ouch, ouch! Don't hit the face! Spare me, heroes!"

"You young people have no sense of martial virtue! If you have the guts, let's fight one-on-one!"

Amidst a flurry of punches and kicks, Jiang Su was beaten black and blue, questioning his existence.
