Chapter 2075 A game where cultivation techniques can be practiced in reality, [A sliver of attention from the world's will]
An ordinary group owner: "What does it mean to be able to cultivate?!"
An ordinary group owner: "Did you buy all those martial arts manuals from the chat group shop and then just put them into the game as skill books?"
Su Yunqing asked incredulously.
If cultivation is possible, then this seems to be the only possibility.
An ordinary group owner said, "That's not right. The world rules are incompatible. The cultivation techniques bought from the store can only be practiced by the user."
An ordinary group owner said: "Unless the corresponding system can be cultivated within the rules of one's own world."
An ordinary group owner said: "Is your world an everyday world? Although it has some advanced technology, the rules don't support cultivation systems for 'internal force' and 'true qi'!"
An ordinary group admin: "How did you manage to do that?"
Su Yunqing couldn't quite understand it.
Although the martial arts in the low-level martial arts world are not powerful in terms of expressiveness, they are still a system of their own, and the power can only take root and sprout with the support of the corresponding world rules.
Kayaba Akihiko's world isn't a martial arts world. Even if he bought real martial arts techniques from a chat group and put them into his world, he shouldn't have the ability to cultivate them.
The richest man in the city said, "It's truly perplexing."
The richest man in the city: "Did you 'create' those martial arts techniques yourself?"
Tony's scientist's spirit burned brightly, and his curiosity was completely piqued.
If that's the case, it's not impossible.
Based on the physical rules of his own world, Kayaba Akihiko defined "martial arts" and derived a "new martial arts system" that could be practiced in his world.
The richest man in the lighthouse said: "Even so, it is an incredibly massive project."
The richest man in the lighthouse said: "A martial art that can truly be cultivated is no exaggeration to say that it is extremely complex; how could you, alone, or rather, with the level of technology in your world, create a martial art that can support an entire 'martial arts world' in such a short time?"
Creating a single, cultivable cultivation method is already no easy feat. To create an entire system of cultivation methods, perfectly integrate them into a virtual world, and guarantee their "realism" and "cultivability" is simply an exaggeration.
Kayaba Akihiko is not Zhang Sanfeng.
Besides, even Zhang Sanfeng didn't reach the point where creating martial arts techniques was as easy as eating and drinking, did he?
Or is it a deduction based on "artificial intelligence"?
With the terrifying computing power of artificial intelligence far exceeding that of our time, and given a feasible basic framework, it seems indeed possible to deduce countless cultivation techniques with the ability to cultivate on a large scale.
But this is only a theoretical possibility.
If it's really that simple, why doesn't anyone in the chat group do it this way, and then use the AI-generated techniques to recycle items in the store and earn points?
Okay, it's most likely because the chat group doesn't approve of AI-generated, unverified techniques.
However, if the logic of the cultivation method is rigorous, it should theoretically be possible to practice.
However, Tony himself hasn't practiced it, so he doesn't know.
He never thought of using artificial intelligence to optimize magic and then practicing it himself.
He trusts himself more than artificial intelligence.
Heathcliff: "It is indeed a theoretically feasible approach, but unfortunately, that's not what I did."
Heathcliff: "At least, it's not the primary means of obtaining 'cultivable qualifications'."
Kayaba Akihiko refuted Tony's conjecture.
Heathcliff: "@OrdinaryGroupOwner, you're right. The cultivation techniques purchased from the chat group store are by default only accessible to the purchaser."
Heathcliff: "If I want others to practice, I must purchase the corresponding number of copies to give away or authorize."
Heathcliff: "So that's what I did; I bought 'qualifications' for 'everyone' to practice martial arts."
Kayaba Akihiko couldn't suppress the smile on his lips.
The ordinary group owner: "???"
An ordinary group admin: "Seriously, are you sure you're not joking?"
An ordinary group admin: "How many people are there on Earth in your world? Even if we only count players interested in full-dive games, there must be at least a million or even tens of millions, right?!"
An ordinary group owner said, "Not to mention that they can't possibly only practice one technique."
An ordinary group owner said: "Your 'jianghu' must have thousands of different martial arts techniques and manuals, right? Even if each player only practices five or six different techniques on average, the total number of points required would still be astronomical."
An ordinary group admin: "Where did you get so many points?!"
Su Yunqing didn't distrust Kayaba Akihiko, because she knew that Kayaba Akihiko wouldn't and had no reason to lie about this.
But it is precisely because we believe that it seems incredible.
Is it possible to grant millions of people the qualification to purchase cultivation techniques? The points required would be an absolutely terrifying number.
If it were Madara Uchiha, Loki, or Daigo, that would be one thing, but Kayaba Akihiko? Where would he, a gamer in the everyday world, get so many points?
Kayaba Akihiko seemed to enjoy Su Yunqing's shock at this moment, and he slowly revealed the key point.
Heathcliff: "You're wrong. There's no need to consider the second or third manual."
Heathcliff: "The key is 'qualification,' not the specific number of techniques."
Heathcliff: "All I need to do is ensure that every player, once they enter the 'Jianghu,' has the most basic 'qualification' to practice martial arts that is recognized under the chat group rules."
He went on to explain further.
Heathcliff: "So, I chose the most basic introductory internal martial arts technique and made a bulk purchase from the chat group shop for 'all players who will enter [SwordArt:Jianghu] in the future'."
Heathcliff: "When players create a character and enter the 'Jianghu' world, the system will automatically give them this 'basic internal skill' and consider it as something they have 'mastered'."
Heathcliff: "Once you have this basic 'qualification,' you will no longer need additional points to learn or practice any other martial arts skills that I 'put' into the game."
Although doing so cost him a lot of points, almost exhausting most of his savings since joining the chat group, it was worth it in Kayaba Akihiko's eyes.
It was not only a key step in realizing his ambition of a "second reality," but also opened a new door to "possibilities" for his world.
And perhaps because it's a "game," even though all the techniques in it were purchased from the chat group's shop, the chat group granted him the authority to recycle them.
So after the recycling, he regained most of the points he had spent, and even gained something unexpected.
[Item: A Glimpse of the World's Will]
[Description: While many world members tend to purchase advanced technology and promote the linear development of their world's material civilization, you have chosen a more difficult and uncertain path.]
Given that the fundamental rules of the world do not support extraordinary cultivation, they spared no expense in purchasing the "possibility" for countless ordinary people to access another power system.
This move shook the world's established "common sense," injected unprecedented variables into the development of civilization, and aroused a sliver of curiosity in the will of your world, causing it to cast a faint shadow of its attention upon you.
[Effect: This focus will bring you a hidden "luck bias", which will be more likely to bring you "luck" when you take actions related to your goals.]
It includes, but is not limited to: increasing the probability of inspiration during research breakthroughs, reducing unexpected interference when implementing plans, and making it easier to find solutions when encountering obstacles. It makes your actions more likely to be "smooth" and "successful," reducing unnecessary setbacks and bad luck.
However, please note that this skewed fortune is not a panacea. It cannot defy basic physical laws and logic, nor can it directly grant you results beyond your own capabilities, nor can it guarantee absolute success.
[Note: This is both a seed and a reward. If you continue to bring more new "possibilities" to your world and broaden the path of civilization, this attention may deepen and bring more ineffable benefits.]
"A sliver of attention from the world's will?"
Kayaba Akihiko muttered to himself, this reward was completely unexpected.
The points redemption would cover part of the costs, which was within his calculations, but this was [a trace of concern from the world's will].
After joining the chat group, he gained some understanding of concepts such as "luck," "destiny," and "world consciousness," but he never expected that the world's will would respond to his actions of "stirring up destiny."
"Luckily, things tend to go smoothly, with fewer unexpected events."
Kayaba Akihiko quickly analyzed the practical value of this "attention".
This will undoubtedly be a huge boost to his current project, SwordArt:Jianghu, and his even bigger plans in the future.
Overcoming many technical challenges, promoting technology at the social level, and even dealing with potential obstruction from various forces all require a certain element of "luck".
This attention was like adding a probability boost to his grand plan.
"Interesting. It seems that my choice not only aligns with my ideals but also unexpectedly resonates with the world's latent 'desire' for development?"
A deep smile appeared on Kayaba Akihiko's lips.
Heathcliff: "The points consumption is indeed astronomical."
Heathcliff: "However, perhaps because 'Jianghu' was judged as a special medium, the chat group allowed me to 'reclaim' it to a certain extent after I completed the basic authorization and submitted the corresponding 'in-game martial arts system,' thus recovering most of the costs."
Heathcliff: "And we also received some unexpected positive feedback."
"An unexpected positive response?" The group members' interest was piqued.
Lighthouse's Richest Man: "You mean, the chat group approves of your 'basic authorization + self-created content' model and gives it some kind of reward? Or, in other words, acknowledges its value?"
Tony immediately grasped the key point.
An ordinary group owner: "Is this even possible? Buying martial arts skills from the chat group, putting them into the game, and then returning them to the chat group, and the chat group actually agreed?"
An ordinary group admin: "Its judgment mechanism..."
Su Yunqing was also somewhat speechless.
An ordinary group admin: "But you didn't just release the game and that's it, did you?"
An ordinary group owner said: "This almost realistic 'Second Life' game also has the ability to 'become stronger' by feeding back the effects of virtual training into reality. Once the public knows the whole truth, the shock it will cause will be absolutely enormous."
Su Yunqing did not dwell on the "feedback" but instead steered the conversation toward a more practical level.
The yearning for the extraordinary is ingrained in the bones of ordinary people.
The temptation of being able to safely experience the thrill of chivalry and revenge in a virtual world, while also being able to physically enhance one's body and gain superhuman strength and skills, is irresistible.
At that time, hundreds of millions of people around the world will probably flock to the "Jianghu" (江湖, a term referring to the martial arts world), regarding it as a promised land to change their destiny, realize their dreams, or even escape reality.
If the vast majority of young and middle-aged people, and even some essential pillars of society, are immersed in the "jianghu" (江湖, a term referring to the world of martial arts and chivalry) for a long time, how will production, management, and basic operations in the real world be managed?
This is not just ordinary online game addiction; this is a "second life" that can bring real benefits! Not to mention, as more and more people acquire superhuman strength in real life.
Power can breed desires and amplify conflicts.
How would a player who has acquired martial arts skills use this power in real life?
While acts of bravery and righteousness certainly exist, the possibility of bullying the weak, violating the law with force, or even using power to commit crimes also absolutely exists.
At that time, the existing order will face an unprecedented shock.
In other words, the cultivation system in the "jianghu" is a relatively weak power system called "martial arts". Most people cannot be immune to firearms even if they cultivate to the limit, so the impact will be smaller.
Even so, it will still have a huge impact.
Has Kayaba Akihiko considered this aspect?
Su Yunqing wasn't really sure about this; after all, if he hadn't joined the chat group, Kayaba Akihiko was a ruthless madman who started a death game, imprisoned the lives of 10,000 people in the game, and even uploaded his own consciousness as data.
Would such a person care about the potential impact of the "jianghu" (江湖, a term referring to the world of martial arts and chivalry) on the real social structure?
He may not care at all, and may even see this shock as a necessary transition from the "old order" to the "new world," as part of his grand experiment.
Heathcliff: "You seem to have some misunderstanding or prejudice against me."
Heathcliff: "The Death Game was something I did before I joined the chat group. How could I possibly disrupt the order of the real world for my own research after joining the chat group?"
Heathcliff: "That wouldn't do me any good."
Ultimately, although he valued the "jianghu" (江湖, a term referring to the martial arts world or the martial arts community), it was only a tiny part of his attempt to create a "real world," merely an experiment.
How could he disrupt the order of the real world because of an experimental subject, thereby affecting subsequent research?
Heathcliff: "In fact, before the project entered the final testing phase, I had already established preliminary cooperation with major countries, regions and relevant international organizations around the world."
Heathcliff: "The maintenance of the real order is achieved primarily through agreements reached with various countries."
