For Immortals of Fang Cheng’s level, the matter of cause and effect could already be ignored.
With a Palm Thunder strike, any cause and effect could be blasted cleanly away, but Fang Cheng still preferred to understand cause and effect in a more gentle manner.
Having confirmed that the cause and effect should be on Xu Qingling, Fang Cheng told her that he needed to step out for a moment.
His left foot had just stepped out of the tea room when his right foot landed in the endless emptiness of space, arriving within a star nebula.
This star nebula stretched for tens of light-years, as a dying star had ejected its outer material, hydrogen, helium, and various heavy elements combined together, eventually forming this magnificent cosmic spectacle.
Looking at the star nebula, Fang Cheng felt its structure was good, and the colors pleasing, particularly suited for making earrings.
He reached out and grabbed the nebula in front of him, splitting it into two, then molded it between his hands.
Upon spreading his hands again, the two pieces of the star nebula were bound by Fang Cheng’s powerful Mana into two little earrings.
The semi-transparent earrings, with the nebula still slowly drifting within, emitted dreamlike, gorgeous, and hazy colors that involuntarily immersed onlookers in their mysterious glow.
Giving away star nebulae was Fang Cheng’s favored method in his previous life, as they were quite convenient whether used as decorations or refined into treasures, much loved by female cultivators.
Using these star nebulae as a gift to understand cause and effect was truly fitting.
Afterward, he spent half a day dealing with the details, then returned to the studio with the star nebula earrings.
Back at his desk, he said to Xu Qingling, “Xu Qingling, how long has it been since you started working at the studio?”
“Almost a month now, boss,” Xu Qingling replied, counting on her fingers.
“I just remembered we haven’t signed an official contract yet, let’s get that done. Also, here’s your welcoming gift, please accept it.”
Xu Qingling took the box with a puzzled look, and after opening it and seeing the earrings inside, she let out a small gasp.
“Boss, did you go pick out a gift for me this morning? Thank you!”
Picking up the earrings, Xu Qingling held them in her hands, admiring them lovingly.
Every time she looked at them, the patterns on the earrings seemed different, providing a new experience with each view.
Under the sunlight, the star nebula within the earrings released varying lights, dazzling the onlooker.
After admiring them for a while, Xu Qingling felt that the maker of these earrings had to be a master, so she asked with concern, “Boss, the earrings are too beautiful, they must be very expensive, right?”
“No worries, I made them myself.”
“…I will treasure them as a family heirloom.”
“No worries, if you lose them I can just make another.”
Xu Qingling didn’t respond, but held onto the earrings, showing a happy and silly smile.
Not far away, Xiao Douzi saw this scene and got excited.
In another half-month, I’ll also get a reward from the boss!
Having sent off the excited Xu Qingling, Fang Cheng finished with this cause and effect and continued to ponder what to make for the next game. Gẹtt the l𝒂test 𝒏𝒐v𝒆ls at 𝒏.o/(v)/e/l/bi𝒏(.)co𝒎
After the previous four failures, he had summed up some insights and believed that the next one should be an improvement.
This time, he decided to start with one of his few hobbies, transforming what he liked into a game, and allowing players to feel emotional resonance, through which they would understand what makes a game fun and interesting.
After giving his hobbies some thought, Fang Cheng first wrote down meditation and planting Spirit Grass; then, he felt something was amiss and added braised meat to the front of the list.
However, Mr. Fang’s braised meat was complicated to prepare, requiring half a day for just one piece of meat, making it unfeasible to integrate into the game.
Moreover, should the braised meat be ready, he would eat it himself first and none would reach the players.
So, was it only meditation and planting Spirit Grass then?
Meditation was very soothing. In the midst of meditating, one could be free of distractions, sweeping away all stray thoughts to be left only with tranquility and harmony.
In his former life, he could meditate for half a year at a stretch, and upon awakening, his cultivation level would have advanced by leaps and bounds, which was incredibly satisfying and comfortable.
Thinking about it this way, it was actually quite interesting!
Having told Xu Qingling and Xiao Douzi about his plans to ponder over the game, Fang Cheng teleported instantaneously, his Divine Sense sweeping across countless worlds, soon finding a suitable planet.
The terrain and environment of this planet were varied, and the scenery was beautiful; every vista featured majestic mountains and lakes.
Furthermore, the local Spiritual Energy was abundant, a hundredfold greater than that of Blue Star, and the fresh air compelled Fang Cheng to breathe deeply several more times. He then collected some air to bring back as a stockpile of gifts for his employees.
The only downside was the frequent natural disasters on this planet, along with uneven distribution of Spiritual Energy.
These uneven Spirit Points could trigger the flow of Spiritual Energy, which on Blue Star would result in a breeze, but here could form Gang Wind that would shred everything nearby, transforming all things and redistributing the Spirit Nodes.
However, thanks to the profuse Spiritual Energy, the planet’s vegetation grew quickly. Even the damage caused by natural disasters would repair itself in a short time and then transform into a different scene.
After enjoying the view for a while, Fang Cheng set a timeframe for himself and then rolled up his sleeves to start creating.
First, he laid out a grid on the planet, with each grid cell accommodating no more than a hundred players to avoid crowding.
The Spirit Points within each grid cell were distributed evenly, ensuring that post-disaster the number of Spirit Points remained approximately the same.
He could have made the natural disasters disappear, but the changing of lands and shifting of stars also provided enjoyment during meditation; this sensation of the world outside being entirely different after a short meditation session was something Fang Cheng wanted players to experience.
Moreover, perishing by accident due to a natural disaster added an extra layer of fun to the game.
The focus came next.
That was the feedback from meditation.
When he first started on the path of cultivation, meditation was mostly used to solidify his abilities, and each improvement in his cultivation level brought him great joy.
Thus, he needed to convey the benefits of meditation to players, to establish the notion that there were advantages to be had from meditating.
Remembering what he had learned at Tianxiong, Fang Cheng knew there must be feedback.
So he designated the Spirit Points as reward locations. After spending some time meditating at a Spirit Point, players would gain an improvement in their realm and receive a random Cultivation Technique.
Some of these techniques might allow players to run faster, others provide immense strength, and some could even wield Palm Thunder to contend with natural disasters, granting players different surprises after each meditation.
Spirit Points would appear randomly after a set period, making players yearn for them, rushing to meditate at the sight of one.
And to make players aware of the benefits of Cultivation Techniques, they could initially be given the simplest technique. Subsequently, through continuous meditation, they would acquire more and better techniques, further emphasizing the benefits of meditation.
In the end, every game should have a conclusion, so the game would end when only the last player remained, determined by the patience each displayed while meditating.
The rules set this time were straightforward, so it took Fang Cheng only three days to finalize this game, nodding his head in satisfaction.
He was confident that once this game was released, players would definitely understand just how enjoyable meditation could be.
