Chapter 125: Chapter 86: Three Great Demon Sects (Second Update)

The server has been up for 39 days.

Qi Sheng has compiled information on the players’ current average Level, mainstream Star Vein Combinations, and the daily sacrificial power output.

During this period, when integrating forum popularity data, he stumbled upon something that left him both amused and exasperated.

Up to now in the game development, various new factions have been emerging continuously.

But each of these factions is related to different Life Soul combinations, by embedding various Life Souls in the Star Veins and releasing their combined traits through the Main Form.

Only three factions deviate from the game’s designed playstyle.

They are jokingly referred to by the forum players as the Three Great Demon Sects.

Ranked first is the Doomsday Technology Guild, also known as the Arms Merchant Guild by forum players.

Players who join this guild generally avoid the traditional Hunting growth path and focus all their efforts on weapon research and development, as well as making money.

Guild members advertise their weapons in popular forum posts every day and are one of the player factions that earn the most sacrificial power, with clients across various guilds and many Solo Players. Recently, the guild has shown vigorous development, consistently launching more powerful new products after certain periods.

Because their playstyle runs counter to the mainstream, the Arms Merchant Guild is referred to as a "Demon Cult Force."

Ranked second is the newly formed guild "Genetic Ascension."

This guild was founded by the player "Yu Ze," who was recruited by Qi Sheng half a month ago using his extra slots, and its members are all researchers from the Genetic Transformation Department.

A thread about gene seeds brought this group to the forefront of public attention.

With the rapid upgrade of technology, the damage gene seeds inflict on the human body has been reduced, while the Body Refining Experience gained from enhancement has significantly increased.

However, the issue of severe pain during the enhancement process has not been well addressed.

For this reason, players who consume gene seeds to enhance Body Refining Experience are referred to as "Genetic Beasts" on the forum and are a rare breed of players who choose money over their lives as a method for boosting Body Refining Experience.

Like the Arms Merchant Guild, members of the Genetic Ascension guild are also not regular players and choose a non-hunting research and development growth path.

Together with the various "gene seed" memes recently popular among forum players, the Genetic Ascension guild has thus been humorously dubbed the "Desperate Poison Master Alliance."

It is the second non-mainstream Demon Sect following the Arms Merchant Guild.

Last on the list is the guild "Fishing in Cold River Snow" formed in the last few days.

Despite its seemingly elegant name, it can’t conceal the members’ unique and bizarre behaviors.

Players who join this guild choose the fishing playstyle. However, their fishing methods are different from that of the normal fishermen.

The forums have documented many odd fishing modes developed by players of this guild.

For example: the Thunder Fish Dominator Stream.

This faction was born after the containment of the Thunderbolt Soul.

In the Strategy video released by the guild, the content at the beginning is quite normal.

Players leisurely fish beside a lake with a metal rod in hand.

When the float sinks, a wicked side emerges instantly. Accompanied by shouts of "Thunderbolt Infusion," the player activates the Rushing Thunder Life Soul trait, sending a strong electrical current through the fishing rod to submerged Life forms by the bait. After the continuous current, the yet-to-be-pulled-up Life forms naturally float to the surface.

There’s also the Bait Transcendence Stream.

This faction was invented before the Thunder Fish Dominator Stream.

The player who invented this mode had a demonstration video that quickly made it to the top of the forum’s popularity charts.

The playstyle of this faction centers on surprise, with the core not being about pulling the fish ashore.

The player combined Spiritual Bombs with bait to create a self-exploding hook bait, focusing on the immediate transcendence of the Life form with the bait.

It is also a core playstyle of the "Fishing in Cold River Snow" guild.

There are many other similar bizarre playstyles, and it is these clever fishing methods that have made this group of players famous on the forums.

They are humorously referred to as the Demon Sect Fishermen by forum players.

These three unconventional and heretical playstyles form what the forum players view as the Three Great Demon Sects.

Compared to other guild players, the Three Great Demon Sects have one more characteristic.

While players from other guilds convert resources into their own strength, these three guilds not only consume resources but also continuously produce goods beneficial to other players.

The custom weapons made by the Arms Merchant guild, the Genetic Potions and gene seeds from the Desperate Poison Master Alliance, and the Spiritual ingredients from aquatic Life forms sold by the Demon Sect Fishermen.

All three Demon Sects have carved out a path for a positive resource cycle.

By selling goods on the Trading House, they earn sacrificial power profits, then use sacrificial power to buy materials to research better products and sell them at higher prices.

However, to Qi Sheng, the perceived irresponsibility of the three sects in the eyes of other players is exactly the outcome he hoped for.

Only the multitude of varied playstyles can form the Player Corps he envisions.

Just as Qi Sheng was preparing to take a closer look at the player numbers of each faction, the Guidance feedback emerged in his mind.

He decisively switched perspectives.

...

Emperor Tomb Mountain Range, Bone-Burying Wilderness.

This is an ancient area that seems to have been forgotten by time, vast and desolate. The harsh cries of ugly vultures echo from time to time, resounding through the wilderness. Whenever the wind rises, it raises waves of sand, sweeping over the barren land, and there is seldom greenery in sight. Only bones and the yellow earth make up this region.

His gaze swiftly advanced eastward across the desolate land, and a gigantic pit appeared in Qi Sheng’s view.

Like a deep scar on the surface of the earth, the pit has a diameter of 16 kilometers, and when viewed from the sky, it is almost circular, with high edges surrounding it like natural barricades formed by a colossal force tearing the earth’s crust. The pit walls are steep and rugged, with bare rocks forming distinct layers. Under the light of Evil Moon, the rocks show mottled colors, composing a complex color map.
