I might have been playing a fake cultivation game.

Section 055 The Source of Danger Premonition

Zhou Yunshen slowly got out of bed, looking somewhat listless.

Before he entered the Hell Trial, he was in pretty good spirits, but now he is listless and physically weak.

Obviously, dying in a Hell instance, while not resulting in actual death, still has certain side effects.

Zhou Yunshen picked up the gaming phone and opened the character attribute panel.

He noticed that the words "slightly weak" appeared in the character's status bar.

Sure enough, the character also became weak.

Zhou Yunshen searched the game interface for a while and found the Trial Space among the Trial icons.

On the phone screen, this trial space exists in the form of a game backpack, and his loot, the "Ghost Messenger Token," lies quietly inside.

The Hell Trial option turned gray, and a countdown timer appeared on it. The countdown timer was for three days, which meant that he would not be able to enter this Hell Trial instance for the next three days.

This state of lethargy lasted for less than a minute before disappearing without a trace.

Zhou Yunshen let his character continue cultivating the "Crimson Sun Burning Heaven Scripture," while he picked up his new phone and entered the group chat of the "Hell Trial Strategy Group."

He planned to share his experiences during this trial in the group chat, along with his speculations.

Consider it a contribution to the world.

Zhou Yunshen still hoped that the government could lead the players to clear this hellish dungeon.

After all, once the Hell Dungeon is cleared, the invasion level of the Xuan Yuan Invasion will decrease by one level, and the possibility of Earth surviving this calamity will undoubtedly increase.

This is something he is very happy to see.

He typed out a message and then clicked send.

Not long after, someone popped up in the group.

Zhu Kai of the Great Yin Dynasty: "Brother, you're amazing! You actually took down a ghost messenger."

Changsun Chong of the Heavenly Martial Divine Kingdom: 'The Ghost Messenger's first blood has finally been taken, but unfortunately, it wasn't me.'

Gu Minghuangchao Nie Yun: "Dude, how did you kill that ghost messenger? Can you share it? We can learn from it so we can take him down next time we encounter one."

"Yeah, bro, share it with me! I had a natal magical artifact, but it got killed by the ghost messengers. It's infuriating!"

Zhou Yunshen didn't expect that no one seemed interested in the things he analyzed and summarized; everyone was only interested in how to kill the ghost messengers.

This shows how deep the resentment people harbored towards the ghost messengers.

Zhou Yunshen thought for a moment, then typed: "Killing the ghost messengers is very simple. These ghost messengers like to hide behind and launch sneak attacks. As long as you can dodge its first attack and avoid being caught in its chains, killing it afterwards is very easy."

Nie Yun of the Ancient Ming Dynasty: "The key is, how do we dodge the first wave of sneak attacks from the ghost messengers?"

"Yeah, brother, how do we dodge the first wave of sneak attacks from the ghost messengers?"

Zhou Yunshen: "When the ghost messengers approach, your body will sense it, you'll have a premonition of danger. At that moment, don't hesitate, run forward immediately. Even a tenth of a second of hesitation will result in being struck by the ghost messengers' chains."

Then he added, "I relied on this premonition to evade two sneak attacks from the ghost messengers."

Gu Minghuang Dynasty's Nie Yun: "A premonition of danger? I didn't feel anything at all before I was attacked by the ghost messengers."

"I don't feel anything either."

"I don't have any either."

"Brother, where did your sense of danger come from? None of us have it."

Everyone took turns speaking.

Zhou Yunshen frowned as he read the comments from the crowd.

He didn't understand what was going on either.

Liang An from the Jiuli Kingdom messaged Zhou Yunshen: "Dude, you said you killed a ghost messenger, you're not lying to us, are you?"

Everyone else fell silent, waiting for Zhou Yunshen to explain.

Zhou Yunshen did not reply. Instead, he took a picture of the ghost messenger token in the trial space, along with its description, and sent it to the group.

When this photo appeared, all doubts vanished, leaving only envy.

"Wow, it's a ghost messenger token! Dude, you're really lucky."

"This token looks pretty powerful according to the description, but its duration is a bit short."

"Actually, it's not short. If it were a fight, a hundred seconds would be enough time for one."

After frowning and thinking for a while, Zhou Yunshen's face lit up with realization, and he quickly typed: "I know where my sense of danger came from!"

"Where did it come from?" someone asked.

Zhou Yunshen: "Martial artists! I forgot to tell you, before I cultivated Taoism, I practiced martial arts for a period of time, reaching the perfected stage of the Acquired Realm."

When Zhou Yunshen sent this message, the group chat immediately fell silent.

After a dozen or so seconds of silence, Gu Minghuang said to Nie Yun, "Martial artists actually possess such abilities. It seems we can learn some martial arts when we have time."

Youyun Kingdom's Fu Zuocheng: "Actually, there's no need to learn martial arts. If we have that time, we could improve our cultivation level, or learn a technique to counter the ghost messengers."

The problem is, what kind of magic can subdue the ghost messengers...?

In the group chat, everyone continued their discussion, but Zhou Yunshen remained silent and chose to stay quiet.

Anyway, he has said everything he needed to say.

Just as Zhou Yunshen was about to close the chat interface and browse the main discussion area of ​​the forum, someone tagged him in the group.

Nie Yun of the Ancient Ming Dynasty: "Dude, with your grade of spiritual root, you practiced martial arts before turning to cultivation, and you've already reached the Foundation Establishment realm so quickly. Your cultivation speed is terrifying."

Zhou Yunshen felt there was no point in hiding it, since the government knew all the players' data, so he typed: "First Rank, what about you?"

Nie Yun of the Ancient Ming Dynasty: "So you're a top-tier expert with a first-grade spiritual root! No wonder you've cultivated so quickly. I'm just a lowly second-grade nobody; I can't compare at all."

Changsun Chong of the Heavenly Martial Divine Kingdom: "Greetings, First-Rank Boss."

Zuo Cheng, the Statue Chief of Youyun Kingdom: "Offer a cigarette to the First-Rank Boss."

Yi Changsheng of the Myriad Manifestations Divine Kingdom tagged Zhou Yunshen: "I'm also a Rank One. Could we exchange contact information for future communication?"

Zhou Yunshen: "Okay."

As soon as I agreed, a friend request popped up on my phone screen.

Zhou Yunshen immediately agreed.

……

Time flies, and before we knew it, several hours had passed.

Chen Xin'an sent Zhou Yunshen a message: "Congratulations, brother! Congratulations on successfully breaking through to the Foundation Establishment Realm. Are you free now? If so, I'll send someone to pick you up. Come with me to meet my ancestor."

Zhou Yunshen asked with some confusion, "Why would I want to see your ancestor?"

Chen Xin'an: "I'll help you get the status of a guest elder. To get this status, you need to meet my ancestor. It's very simple; I'll go with you, and you'll just need to meet him."

Zhou Yunshen: "Okay, by the way, when I came out of seclusion, Chen Jiu said you were in seclusion. How did it go?"
