You Were Supposed to Cultivate Immortality, But You Became the Game Ancestor?!

“Did you hear? Gu Yan’s game Ascend by Digging last month triggered inner demons in our always-mild-tempered senior body cultivator!” “It’s insane! His game Second Passing of Immortality last week made the usually refined Elder Sword Cultivator curse nonstop all night in the streets!” “Totally beastly! His game Breakup Pill Room, released just yesterday, split up seventy-two pairs of alchemy cultivator couples in one day!” “This is huge! The Sect Patriarch seems to be addicted to Gu Yan’s illusion realms—so much that the Sect Master suggested summoning heavenly lightning to help him quit!” “…” Gu Yan, a game designer, suddenly transmigrates into the cultivation world—only to discover he’s now a “Realm Cultivator.” This type of cultivator weaves illusion realms, inviting others in to train. Emotions like joy, anger, sorrow, fear, greed, rage, obsession, and resentment are absorbed as spiritual energy to advance cultivation. When a game design degree meets a spiritual root built for crafting virtual illusion realms, Gu Yan pioneers a new path of immortality. As time passes, with the sect descending into chaos and the cultivation world shaken to its core, Gu Yan can only shrug: “Even in a cultivation world, it makes total sense for me—a game designer—to keep doing my job, right?” “As for accidentally becoming the Ancestor of Gaming Cultivation… yeah, I didn’t see that coming either.”
