Chapter 671: Chapter 654: Uphold Justice!

Life Star Pavilion Headquarters.

As one of the Six Major Sects, the headquarters of Life Star Pavilion is grand and imposing. It is composed of countless suspended pavilions, with innumerable sky bridges connecting them, resembling a myriad of stars and constellations.

At night, if one looks up from the mountain below, they can see the glow under these pavilions, reflecting with the mountains.

At this moment, various cultivators had gathered around the headquarters of Life Star Pavilion.

Many of them were from other sects, having traveled great distances just to watch the spectacle.

"Disgraced practitioners of the cultivation world, everyone is obligated to kill them!

"Charge!"

Two different groups of players charged towards the headquarters of Life Star Pavilion.

One group, led by Instructor Ding, was from the Technology Cultivation Supplement Company, and this time they brought their best cultivators.

Those currently on the Heavenly Pride List, those who had been on it, and those who had a chance to be on it were all brought.

The other group was Brother Li’s people, belonging to the Directly Operated Pill Medicine Cultivation Team under the Wuxiang Pill Alliance; they were equally powerful.

These were the two biggest forces in the entire server. After all, in the game "Reverse Heaven," financial power represented elixirs, and elixirs represented combat power.

These two groups, capable of competing for the exclusive distribution rights of the Nine Dragon Elixirs across the server, were naturally the most powerful groups in the server.

The scene might easily make one think they were here for a gang fight, but they were actually here to bring the cheats of Life Star Pavilion to justice.

Especially Overstreet Rat, who profited the most from the scams and was naturally at the top of the wanted list.

Chen Tingquan, Li Wenhao, and others were also there as spectators.

Originally, Li Wenhao just found Instructor Ding, hoping for some private help to get revenge, but unexpectedly, Instructor Ding took it very seriously and brought everyone from the Technology Cultivation Supplement Company.

Making Li Wenhao quite flattered.

But after some careful thought, considering Brother Li’s side, Li Wenhao realized that Instructor Ding’s actions were not solely based on their personal friendship; there were other reasons too.

Firstly, although Overstreet Rat was a despicable cheat, he was indeed a figure on the Heavenly Pride List, with formidable strength.

Instructor Ding might not necessarily win if he challenged him one-on-one.

Fighting in the opponent’s main territory, it’s safer to bring as many people as possible.

Secondly, it wasn’t just about helping a brother get revenge; it was also about maintaining justice in the cultivation world!

And this kind of justice was quite crucial for Instructor Ding’s sales channels.

Recently, the actions of the Life Star Pavilion group had aroused public anger, becoming a hot topic on the internet, attracting much attention.

If Instructor Ding’s Technology Cultivation Supplement Company stood by, and Brother Li intervened, venting the anger of those non-paying players, what would the result be?

Many would surely switch to Brother Li’s channels.

After all, although Brother Li was not a Level A dealer now, he was willing to spend money. The price differences between the two channels for the Nine Dragon Elixirs were not significant.

If Brother Li took this chance to surpass them, considering that he was a disciple of Wuxiang Pill Alliance with high innate resistance to elixirs, the Technology Cultivation Supplement Company might really collapse and never recover.

So, Instructor Ding had to take action.

To maintain the status of a Level A dealer, they had to constantly set an example and be the focus of the whole server.

They must stay at the top of the Heavenly Pride List and participate in popular events. Otherwise, they could be replaced at any time.

Of course, currently, the nominal leader of the Technology Cultivation Supplement Company was Jian Shang.

That unique and peerless Tao Companion of the whole server was also by Jian Shang’s side, cooperating with him seamlessly.

Instructor Ding sighed quietly, pretending not to see them.

Some disciples of the Life Star Pavilion flew out of the sect to report the situation.

"Confirmed, he’s hiding near the elixir room."

Instructor Ding immediately ordered, "Good, let’s go!"

Arriving at the great array in front of the Life Star Pavilion’s sect, everyone was blocked by the air wall.

"Pay up!"

At Instructor Ding’s command, everyone paid 10 middle-grade spirit stones, equivalent to 10 dollars.

Then, they could pass unimpeded.

The spectators found it hard to keep their composure. They had expected a scenario where players fought against the sect guardian NPCs, but that didn’t happen.

In the world of "Reverse Heaven," most problems could be solved with money.

"Found him!

"Brothers, dealing with these cheats, there’s no need to talk morality, everyone go at him!

"Of course, leave the last hit to me!"

Instructor Ding led his people towards Overstreet Rat, while Brother Li’s group also surrounded the other cheats on their blacklist.

For a moment, various magical treasures flew around, and Life Star Pavilion was in chaos.

Other disciples of the Life Star Pavilion quickly flew on their flying swords to watch from afar, to avoid getting caught in the crossfire.

After all, Overstreet Rat was a figure on the Heavenly Pride List, fiercely resisting.

Magical treasures surrounded him, but amidst the bombardment from these people, he could only roll around pathetically on the ground.

"What’s going on, they’re fighting inside the sect, why isn’t anyone intervening?

"What the hell are you guards doing!"

Overstreet Rat was dumbfounded. He had known they were coming for him, so he hid near the heavily guarded elixir room.

He thought that even if they came, the guard NPCs couldn’t just ignore him?

Of course, he could not stay offline forever; this account had worked so hard to get to the Heavenly Pride List, with a significant amount of money spent, he couldn’t just give it up.

So he decided to resist near the sect, relying on the guards’ help.

But once the fight started, he found the guards seemed not to notice, unmoved by his being besieged.

Instructor Ding laughed heartily, "Kid, this is the world of ’Reverse Heaven’!

"We paid the fee to enter, why would the guards fight us."

Overstreet Rat was confused, "Wait, for just 10 dollars you can barge into one of the Six Major Sects and kill at will? What kind of ridiculous game setting is this!"

Instructor Ding shook his head, "No, no, no, 10 dollars is just the entry fee for the sect.

"And we didn’t kill anyone. After entering the sect, we’re just engaging in daily cultivation exercises and practical sparring.

"As long as no one dies, the guards won’t intervene.

"Moreover, didn’t you fight back? If you fight back, it’s just mutual combat.

"As for killing someone, that’s another price."

As they spoke, another cheat of Life Star Pavilion was killed.

While the body was still there, a disciple of the Erosion Spirit Heavenly Palace started casting spells, refining a Ghost General Puppet.

Instructor Ding marveled, "I always thought the Ghost General Puppet skill of Erosion Spirit Heavenly Palace was useless, but it turns out to have such a use.

"Strong cultivators truly find surprises everywhere!"

The guards of the Life Star Pavilion only gathered around then, but the player who killed first pleaded guilty and paid a fine of 1 top-grade spirit stone, equivalent to 100 dollars.

The guards then dispersed, pretending nothing had happened.

Normally, killing someone wouldn’t destroy their body, and the player could revive by purchasing a Resurrection Pill for 1 dollar, causing no significant damage.

But with the Erosion Spirit Heavenly Palace’s method of refining Ghost General Puppets, the player’s body could be destroyed, forcing them to reincarnate and start cultivation anew, inflicting a significant loss.

In fact, Ghost General Puppets were not strong in Heavenly Pride level battles, often easily destroyed, so Instructor Ding rarely used Chen Tingquan’s body after trying it once.

But now he realized, destroying the body was the correct use of this skill.

In the future, he must bring a disciple of the Erosion Spirit Heavenly Palace for vengeance.

Maybe the Erosion Spirit Heavenly Palace could even develop a side business, like helping to destroy bodies for 10 middle-grade spirit stones per time, fair pricing, business honesty.

Overstreet Rat now truly became a rat everyone was hunting, being chased by crowds, even Brother Li’s group joined in after dealing with two more cheats.

Overstreet Rat was annoyed, "What’s the point of the laws of the cultivation world! Are they just for collecting money!"

Instructor Ding laughed loudly, "Who said the laws of the cultivation world are bad? They are fantastic! Don’t resist anymore, lie down and let me refine you!"

Barrage comments: "Little Ding, you look like a psychotic killer!"

Finally, amidst the bombardment of various magical treasures, Overstreet Rat didn’t survive.

His body was refined into a Ghost General Puppet, carried by Instructor Ding.

And he could only reincarnate.

After reincarnating, having to start from scratch, he was naturally removed from the Heavenly Pride List.

"Chase him to the reincarnation point and keep killing him!"

After joining a sect, players reincarnate at the sect’s fixed reincarnation points, so Instructor Ding continued pursuing him.

He knew continuously killing players in this game would incur penalties, so he had Jian Shang do it.

However, after Jian Shang killed him, an unexpected issue arose.

"Huh, why does the penalty for my first kill on him also cost 200? Shouldn’t it be 100?

"What’s wrong with this setting!"

Instructor Ding was also stunned; the situation was different than they expected.

Originally, Instructor Ding thought the fines would double and heavenly tribulations would occur due to his continuous killing, but it seemed the restriction was bilateral.

Meaning that if whales consecutively killed different people, they would face such penalties; and the same person being killed by different whales would also incur those penalties!

Instructor Ding had planned to have others do the killing, merely paying 100 dollars each time. As a tycoon, killing a dozen times was doable.

But now, the fines would keep doubling, and after a few kills, it would trigger heavenly tribulations, causing the last killer to be obliterated.

Which was quite uneconomical.

Instructor Ding was furious, "What’s wrong with the laws of the cultivation world! They take money but do nothing! Why does the fine double, even when switching killers!"

Overstreet Rat laughed heartily, "Who said the laws of the cultivation world are bad? They are fantastic!

"Go on, keep killing me. I’m only at Qi Refining cultivation; no matter how much you kill me, my cultivation won’t drop."

Instructor Ding was speechless, "Ridiculous, the laws of the cultivation world have become a shield for criminals now!"

Barrage comments: "That’s how our ’Reverse Heaven’ works!"

Absurd yet somewhat reasonable.
