Prologue

Prologue:

A young boy wrote on his computer; he was just an ordinary sixteen-year-old boy with black curly hair. The name of his boy was Le!

Le was a Vietnamese boy and a game developer; he was talented in game development and game design. Therefore he was working on his own game!

He was working on this game for over three years, and finally was the day come where he could play it! It was a "Cultivation-OpenWorld" game in VR. He designed his game with his friend "Tyron." they both were anime, manga, manhwa, and manhua fans.

----------------

It is the year 2025, The coronavirus was defeated, but billions of dollars were invested. And the world changed; not only the coronavirus crisis were over, the technology evolved due to the corona crises. And the gaming branch was at its highest point. The PlayStation 6 and Xbox X were all defeated because of VR. The whole VR genre was so dominating that all consoles died except for computers and the VR.

Nowadays, every teen with a bit of talent could develop a game. The only thing you needed was a VR glass and a computer.

And ninety percent of all teachers lost their job because many teens became millionaires thanks to their games.

Especially the anime, manga, and webtoon branch dominated the games market. All games nowadays were based on cultivations, action or romance animes, mangas, or webtoons.

Our protagonist, Le, and Tyron, were big fans of novels and manhuas. They loved the feeling of reading a book with an untouchable protagonist. And he loved the cultivation genre, and their talking wise; he was a boy who didn't care about the story because every manga or novel he read didn't satisfy him until the day he found a book where an immortal was reborn back to earth. He was so addicted, and while quarantine, he read every cultivation manhua on the market.

(Author note: Yeah, that was me in quarantine)

Le was already working three years on his game called "The immortals," but he didn't plan to release his game. He only made this game for himself so that no one could annoy him. Le and Tyron invested every free hour in their game. They did many tests and created several sects, NPC, Martial arts, cultivation techniques, and many items for alchemists and blacksmiths.

Le was a genius if it came to development. He created the AI of the NPCs all by himself, even if it took him three years!

Tyron was a true master of arts and design, he could also develop a bit, but that wasn't his strength. Therefore he designed every character, structure, herb, and other minor and significant things.

-------------

"Hello, it's now the 23rd of May, and it's 8 p.m. I hope everything goes as I expected!"

The reason why Le never joined in his game was the reason that he wanted to play the game without bugs or anything; he asked friends for him to test, and they did, and everything was perfect, and now the day comes where he can finally play his game he was working hard for!

He took his VR glass and put it on...

WHISH

When Le woke up, he was sitting on a giant golden throne; the throne was over twenty meters high.

"Wow, it looks so much more significant in VR. I should make it to two or three meters, but it looks fantastic!"

He was glad everything seems perfect, and the place he woke up was also his sect-clan called the "Immortal dragon sect," and as his game said, he is the only immortal in that world!

"Hehe, finally!" Le shouted out and flew out of his main-hall.

The sect was monstrous and protected by three array layers. The first was the reflectarray that reflect every spell or martial art back. The second array was an illusion array, and the third one was a protective array that could erase every attack.

"Hmm, well, I never thought about the things when I'm done with my game and play it; it's a weird feeling," Le said and rubbed his chin.

"Well, I look pretty handsome in this game. To be honest, my white hair and silver eyes make me look like a badass-handsome anime boy." Le smirked

"Dang, I should stop talking to myself!"

"Well, I'm at the celestial stage as well known as the 'Immortal stage.' so I guess I'm just chilling," Le added.

He went to his treasure hall, and when he'd opened it, he was shocked.

"He completely exaggerates it..."

Le saw billions of "Dragon coins" as for "Martial coins." thousands of martial art books, and many more herbs and other things.

The truth was that Le wasn't the only one who was working on the game. His best friend, "Tyron." was also working on his game.

"What a crazy bastard!"

"Oh, dammit! It's already at 8 p.m. Tyron should also arrive now, or am I wrong?"

"Oh wait, nope, 10 seconds. This dude was way too excited in school.."

Five hours ago...back in school...

"LE YOU CRAZY BASTARD!" A deep voice appeared behind him. It was a boy with long curly hair and blue eyes. He was about 6'2-3; he had a big smile on his face and looked at le with his eyes joyfully.

"Yeah, I know. I know you're excited but calm down!" Le poked him and said with a silent voice, even if he was proud of their game progress, he doesn't like other people's attention.

"PFFF, man, your way too shy and humble!" Tyron cheered and put his arm around Le.

"Ok, Ty, you know I was on vacation with my family so that I couldn't look over the game. I hope you didn't go crazy!" Le said in a stern tone.

(Author note: Ty \= Tyron. It's only a nickname Le gave Tyron because he was lazy)

"Yeah yeah, just chill mate. I would never pfff!" Tyron said in a serene tone.

'F**k, I can't log in now, and I'm coming five minutes later than Le. How should I do that then?!' Tyron thought and tried to stay calm.

They were in the same class for over eight years now, and they were more brothers than just friends.

They were a deadly duo in any game! They always reached the top of every ranking in the world!

At the end of the school day...

"Yo, I'm home soon. Don't forget to join us. It's we can finally play a good game without any dudes that steal our loot!" Tyron commanded.

"Pfff yeah yeah, I know you're excited, but you're still coming 5 minutes after me; I can't be late this time!" Le responded with a confident smile.

Back to 8:04 p.m...

"Oh, 5 seconds..."

"5"

"4"

"3"

"2"

"1"

BOOOOM

"Oh, dang," Le said to himself and pressed his ears with his hands, knowing what was about to happen.

"I'M HERE!" A loud voice appeared; it was a young boy with white hairs with blue eyes wearing a blue-white robe.

"Yeah, Ty, I know you're excited, but you have entirely overdone it. Man, you just filled our treasure room till the end with techniques, pills, and coins!" Le complained.

"Yeah, hehe, I wanted to make sure that we're op!" Tyron responded with a smile.

(A/N: Op\= Overpowered)

"Pff, you're never going to change, do you?" Le joked.

"Hehe, you know it, bro," Tyron responded with a big smile.

"Dang, let's try to fight a bit!" Tyron added and smirked. He was a person without any patient, so Tyron was already used to the combat system.

In general, there was nothing special about the combat system, but it is always weird to fly for the first time or even using attacks that could destroy a whole mountain.

"Well then, let's start!" Le said and flew up and released his qi-aura.

"You already learned how to fight, huh?" Tyron asked with a wry smile.

"Pfff, don't act as you don't know! We're friends for years and played many of those VR games. Did you forget about that?" Le joked as Tyron also flew up.

"Well, GOOOOO!" Tyron screamed.

As Tyron was screaming, he also used a martial art with the name "Fist of the Pheonix." a big fist covered in fire fell from the sky.

'This dude always has to overdo it!'

"Martial God art, I see!" Le smirked.

"Dragon sword of heaven!"

A sword suddenly appeared and countered the attack just by its appearance.

It was the "Dragon sword of heaven," shining in the sun as if it were fashioned from the brilliant rays themselves. The broad black metal was warmed as the sky began to turn red. In all the landscape, it was the thing that drew the eye, a symbol of the kind of might that enables others to kneel in front of it. Yet, like the moon, it reflected the destruction and the duty to destroy all enemies.

Le weighed the sword in his right hand, slashing it delicately at the air with a divine-like apprehension, and as he did so. The handle of the sword was bound with red-metal and spirit stones, the hilt decorated yet understated, and the blade was thin but long. Le was a big fan of swords, and that's why he created a sword with such an impact.

"Shall we start?" Le grinned.

"Of course!" Tyron answered and flew towards Le with immense speed.

"Pheonix talon first form!"

A talon appeared that was able to cut mountains. The talon was so monstrous and powerful that even a martial saint would be nothing in front of it!

"That's what I imagined!" Le shouted out with a big smile.

"Dragon sword technique first stage!"

"Slash if destruction!"

The sword gave out a Qi slash that was on pair with the Pheonix talon. And when the attacks clashed with each other, a phenomenon happened.

BOOOOM

All mountains around them were destroyed. Le and Tyron were immortals and at the pinnacle of cultivation.

Le was a sword-cultivator and pill-god. And Tyron was a martial arts-cultivator and also a pill-god.

The game they made had three cultivation ways. One was absolute, and you had to cultivate with the "default" one ranked in 7 realms.

The first one was the Qi gathering realm; the second one was the Qi forming realm; the third one was the core condensing realm. These three are the human realms after these realms, the inhuman ranks come, and that would be the earth-core realm, the sky-core realm, the Heaven realm, and at least the Divine realm. Each domain has ten stages. The first stages were known as the low-stages. These stages were stages 1, 2, and 3 after the low-stages, the mid-stages came, and the mid-stage also has three sub-stages 4, 5, and 6, and then the upper or high step 7, 8 and 9 and the tenth would be the breakthrough.

If you reached the "Divine realm," you could continue as a "Sword" or "Martial" cultivator.

The sword realm had ten stages. The sword-disciple, sword-master, sword-grandmaster, sword-supreme, sword-sovereign, sword-monarch, sword-dominator, sword-saint, sword-god, and the last and ultimate stage the sword-deity.

The martial realm also had ten stages. Body-tempering, martial-king, martial-emperor, martial-ancestor, martial-dominator, martial-monarch, martial-sovereign, Martial-saint, martial-god, and the ultimate realm, martial-deity.

Tyron and Le were losing their consciousness. In usual cases, nothing serious would happen, but this time, something was wrong...:

"Bro, what happens? My sight gets blurry!" Tyron asked.

"What do you mea-?" And before le could finish his sentence, he fell as same for Tyron

"B...Bro-" Tyron grasped.

"D...Don't...worry!" Le tried to say with all his strength and closed his eyes...
