To Harm the Righteous Path, I Had No Choice But to Make Games

After a full day of exploration and countless failures, Zhong Yi was just one step away from clearing survival mode.
At this moment, he was on the last stage of the difficult rooftop level, facing hordes of zombies with an incredibly focused expression.
He took a deep breath and chose to pause.
He switched to the forum section to continue his text 'live broadcast'.
"Reporting on my progress! Currently on the tenth stage of the difficult rooftop mode, last wave of zombies! I'm about to clear it!!!"
At this time, the Celestial Cultivation World did not yet have the concept of "live streaming."
However, the Disciples highly praised this behavior.
Countless Disciples left comments:
"As expected of a Genius Cultivator! I bow down!"
"Fellow Daoist, which peak are you a Disciple of? Do you not need to cultivate? Why can I always see you sharing your experience?"
"Quickly share your experience, I'm currently stuck on the third stage, the pool."
"Fellow Daoist, keep it up! You are a role model for us!"
...
Over the past two days, Zhong Yi had been completely immersed in survival mode.
Under difficult difficulty, survival mode becomes exceptionally challenging after the fifth stage.
A slight mistake could lead to the Juggling Zombie and Ice Car Zombie ruining the formation, resulting in a complete collapse.
As for cultivation...
Are you kidding? Does he need to cultivate?
He was a direct Disciple of an Elder.
His Master, Chao Wendao, completely forbade him from cultivating, urging him to create guides so he could boast to other Elders.
He heard that yesterday, he even held a class at Lingxiao Square, teaching Disciples how to arrange their forces.
Even if he wanted to cultivate, he couldn't...
Over the past two days, Zhong Yi's playstyle had continuously optimized.
His understanding of various plants had also undergone a drastic change compared to when he played adventure mode a few days ago.
For example, chili peppers and cherry bombs, which he usually hesitated to use, were simply Divine Artifacts when facing hordes of zombies.
For example, the starfruit, which he always thought was useless, turned out to be surprisingly effective when the water surface was covered with it in the pool stage.
For example, upgraded special plants, such as Gatling Pea and Corn Cannon, were existences that could destroy the world.
Although he did not know the meaning of Gatling and Cannon, he always felt that the "Jia" family might be an ancient Celestial Cultivation clan...
...

"Fellow Daoists, yesterday I was about to Undergo Tribulation, but I was struck by a tribulation of a group of Barbarian Zombies, and I failed with regret..."
"Finally, with the help of Corn Cannon Daoist, I will surely overcome this tribulation today!"
Before starting the final battle, Zhong Yi began to share his insights with the Disciples.
Yesterday, he suffered greatly in the rooftop stage.
He originally thought that encountering Barbarian Zombies in survival mode was the most difficult test.
He didn't expect there to be something even more difficult, which was a cluster of Barbarian Zombies.
There was such a tribulation in the rooftop survival mode.
He experimented with many solutions.
Even if an entire row of Gatling Peas and Torchwood was set up, such powerful firepower would still come at a huge cost.
Finally, after he purchased the 【Corn Cannon】 in the shop, things changed.
The Corn Cannon, formed by two Corn Pult, was simply a Barbarian killer!
One shot, and they were annihilated.
The only drawback was the long reload time.
But fortunately, Barbarian Zombies wouldn't keep spawning.
In Zhong Yi's opinion, no matter how difficult it was, they couldn't keep spawning Barbarian Zombies, right?
Would that even be playable?
He believed Lu Ze wasn't that deranged.
After listening to Zhong Yi's words, the Disciples expressed their curiosity.
"What? Barbarian Zombies can attack in groups?"
"Such a difficulty, as expected of the final stage!"
"Corn Cannon? Why do the names of these spiritual plants all have the character 'Jia' in them? Is there some special meaning?"
"The cards in the shop are too expensive, I haven't even unlocked all the card slots yet."
"Genius Cultivator Fellow Daoist is truly too persistent!"
"Alas, just text isn't enough, if only there were pictures..."
"Pictures aren't satisfying enough either, it would be great if we could see real-time footage."
...
"Fellow Daoists, I am about to Undergo Tribulation, see you at the peak!"
Zhong Yi left his last message, returned to survival mode, and unpaused.
One, two, three...
A full five Barbarian Zombies charged simultaneously!
Five lanes of Barbarian Zombies.
This was a configuration that players in his previous life would only see in Endless Mode, and it was already presented now.
This formation was not the first time Zhong Yi had seen it.
He was familiar with it, playing with a corn kernel in his hand.
The Corn Cannon needed to be manually controlled by the player.
The method was the same as planting spiritual plants; the player needed to use a sword to strike the corn kernels onto the designated position.
How skilled Zhong Yi's technique was.
He saw his sword precisely cut through the fruit, lightly striking the three corn kernels in his hand with the back of his sword, dropping them into the three gaps between the five Barbarian Zombies.
A huge barrage of firepower rained down, and the Barbarian Zombies instantly turned to ashes, and the crisis was resolved.
And then.
Juggling Zombies, General Zombies, Ice Car Zombies followed one after another...
...
Zhong Yi had accumulated a huge advantage in the previous stages.
Spiritual Qi was inexhaustible.
Countless cherry bombs and chili peppers rained down, and the last zombie was also annihilated.
Watching the trophy, which symbolized the achievement of clearing the level, fly into his hand, Zhong Yi excitedly returned to the main page.
Just as he was about to share this good news with his Fellow Daoists in the forum,
He suddenly noticed a small red exclamation mark on survival mode.
"What is this?"
Zhong Yi was curious and entered survival mode again.
He saw that below the five difficult survival modes that he had already cleared, five new stages had appeared.
Named: 【Endless Mode】
"Endless Mode?"
Zhong Yi rubbed his fists, his heart filled with uncontrollable excitement.
He had just been regretting that he would lose the challenge after clearing the game, but the appearance of Endless Mode was undoubtedly a reassurance.
"It can't really be endless, can it?"
Zhong Yi muttered to himself with some doubt.
But he quickly dismissed this idea.
Just like some Medicinal Pills or Magic Treasures.
Names containing "Immortal Ascension" or "Demon Subjugation" were actually just gimmicks.
Could it be that eating a certain Medicinal Pill could truly lead to Immortal Ascension?
There were even unlucky people who failed Foundation Establishment after taking a Foundation Establishment Pill!
Similarly, Zhong Yi didn't believe there were truly "endless" stages.
After all, Lu Ze's cultivation was there; it was impossible for him to create something too out of bounds.
Zhong Yi, who had just cleared five difficult survival modes, was full of confidence:
"Junior Brother Lu, just wait, I'm going to find the end right now!"
