update icon Updated at 2025/8/19 6:10:12

In a hotel in the outer city area.

Bexia sat on an unknown fur sofa, while Christine wore a shirt and dangled her white jade feet on the side, completely oblivious to the seductive charm she emitted that could make most men turn into hungry wolves.

After leaving the Shenwei Group, Bexia had asked Zemuxin to find a hotel for him to stay in. He also gave him a small bag of magic stones to send him away, because Zemuxin wasn't very familiar with this outer city area and keeping him wouldn't serve any purpose.

Bexia held the "Ice Love" ring he bought from the Shenwei Group. This thing needed soul power to bind, once bound, it couldn't be changed, and no one else would be able to use it besides him.

In the dimensional universe, there were not only soul bindings but also other methods such as iris, fingerprints, and bloodline. However, soul binding was the best method because irises, fingerprints, and blood could be faked, but souls couldn't be. Each life had a unique soul.

Even if there was the ability to fake it, was there a need for someone with that ability to create a normal virtual network account?

Bexia also praised the magical nature of this thing, and meanwhile, his spiritual power spread out. He felt his spiritual power flow from the ring, scanning over his soul.

"Beep! Soul aura detected, would you like to record it?"

"Record!"

"Beep! Recording successful, would you like to grant first-grade authority? Granting it will give the user the highest control!"

"Confirmed!"

"First-grade authority successfully set!"

"Virtual network signal detected, would you like to connect?"

"Connect!"

"Attention! When connected, the physical body in reality will enter a dreaming state, please pay attention to the surroundings!"

"Now beginning connection countdown 10...9...1!"

"Welcome to the virtual network!"

Bexia felt like his spirit had detached from his body. In the blink of an eye, he appeared in a white space.

"This is the virtual network world? Why is there nothing here?" Bexia curiously looked around.

"This is your login space, master. You need to complete your login information before entering the virtual network world!" With a flash of white light, a small blue light sphere appeared in front of him. This was the advanced intelligent light brain of Ice Love.

"So you're the intelligent light brain?"

"Yes, I am the advanced intelligent light brain that assists the master!"

"You should be able to change your appearance, right? Intelligent light brains are virtual entities, their appearance can be altered."

"This is the initial state. Master can change me into any form you like."

"If that's the case..." Bexia smirked, and with a thought, he transmitted the desired form to the light brain. Soon, a palm-sized Christine appeared in front of him.

"From now on, I'll call you Xiao Bing!"(小冰)

"Thank you, master, for giving me a name!" Xiao Bing, delighted, danced in the air. As an advanced light brain, it possessed emotions comparable to that of a normal child.

"Xiao Bing, how do I enter the virtual network world now?" Bexia reached out and pinched the small ice-like form of Xiao Bing, and asked.

"Perfecting the basic information is all you need to do!" Little Ice waved her hand, and a virtual screen appeared in front of Bexia, displaying many identity-related information, but what surprised him was that the information on the screen was not blank, but already filled in!

"Name: Bexia

Age: xxx

Place of birth: xxx

...

Basic Information: xxxxx"

"What's going on?" Bexia looked at the filled-in identity information, which was extremely detailed!

"Please wait, Master. I will provide feedback to the virtual network!" Little Ice was also puzzled and immediately transmitted a message to the virtual network.

"Master! The virtual network feedback is normal, and everything is in order. You can directly enter the virtual network!" As Little Ice spoke, a gate appeared in front of Bexia.

After hesitating for a moment, Bexia, although feeling somewhat bewildered, still stepped into the gate. The next moment, his figure disappeared in the white initial space. When he came to his senses, he found himself standing in a dilapidated garden, surrounded by wild flowers in full bloom, and the fragrance of soil and flowers filled his nostrils. In the distance, mountains stretched continuously.

Everything, whether it was the visuals, smell, or sound, was exactly like reality.

"It's amazing!" Bexia reached out and broke a flower, and even the touch felt no different from the real thing.

Impressive!

It was as if his physical body was real!

"I wonder why I feel so powerful!" Bexia clenched his fist and threw a virtual punch ahead.

"Primordial Strike!"

"Boom!" Suddenly, an icon flashed before his eyes, and Bexia felt a powerful force emanating from his fist, instantly obliterating the distant mountains as if ice evaporated by fire.

"What's going on?!" Bexia was dumbfounded by his own actions. He had effortlessly turned a series of mountains into flat ground. When did he become so powerful?

"Little Ice, give me the basic information of the virtual network world!" Bexia said, and immediately a virtual screen appeared before him, densely packed with basic information about the virtual network world.

The projection of the virtual network world was not an ordinary projection but a soul projection, a special projection that consumed a certain amount of mental power. If one died in this world, they would also suffer a certain amount of mental power loss in reality and would be unable to reenter the world until their lost mental power was restored.

After logging into the virtual network world, regardless of one's real-world power, everyone started at level 1. Their physical abilities were completely identical. To level up, it was not achieved through training, but by battling the monsters in this world. Killing monsters would grant experience points, and when the experience bar was full, one could level up and become stronger.

At the same time, killing monsters would also drop various equipment and items. The source of dimensional coins came from these monsters. Killing them would provide a chance to obtain dimensional coins.

Of course, what surprised Bexia the most was that things in this virtual online world were not completely unreal. Although many things were fake, it could simulate everything from the outside world. In other words, although cultivation couldn't be taken out, experience could be brought out.
