Chapter 3

Benjamin Carter had always kept a very low profile before this. Although everyone knew his swordsmanship was formidable, no one could have imagined that his sword-riding skills had reached such a terrifying level. From the time he killed Derek Foster to the ten-odd minutes after posting, he actually slew more than 130 high-level players from the Tianxia Sword Society, almost all with a single strike, and no one could withstand his first assassination sword. No one knew how many experts from the Tianxia Sword Society Benjamin Carter plundered during that upheaval, nor did anyone know how heavy a blow it was to the Tianxia Sword Society.

He falsely conveyed Derek Foster's orders, sending the Tianxia Sword Society's most powerful battle team to attack the main base of the Azure Dragon Society. Although the Azure Dragon Society mobilized over ninety percent of its strength to fight the Tianxia Sword Society, the main base's defenses remained extremely tenacious, and the Tianxia battle team paid a heavy price for that reckless assault.

After repelling the Tianxia battle team, the two deputy leaders of the Azure Dragon Society responsible for guarding the main base, along with the few dozen survivors, were already exhausted. Just as they were celebrating their narrow escape, they unfortunately caught sight of the bloodthirsty Benjamin Carter. This man had planned this step long in advance; at the most opportune moment, he left the main battlefield between the Tianxia Sword Society and the Azure Dragon Society and single-handedly stormed the Azure Dragon Society's main base.

After that battle, the Azure Dragon Society, having achieved a complete victory, claimed that Benjamin Carter had ambushed 219 of their top experts, causing the loss of numerous divine weapons, magical treasures, and equipment. The loss list published on the forum immediately made dozens of guilds and individuals' eyes turn red as they declared their willingness to trade with Benjamin Carter, offering any terms. Of course, there were also some less harmonious guilds and players who posted bounties: whoever could take down Benjamin Carter could also name their price.

The leader of the Ghost Shadow Sect, ranked twelfth in ""Shushan 2,"" sighed upon seeing that list: ""Big guilds really are wealthy. The items on this list are worth ten times the total assets of our Ghost Shadow Sect.""

Benjamin Carter robbed two major guilds in one go, hundreds of high-level accounts, and even included fifteen warehouse accounts from the Azure Dragon Society and the Tianxia Sword Society. These warehouse accounts suffered the most, as Benjamin Carter used revival talismans to kill them repeatedly until not even a single healing pill would drop. According to some insiders, the Tianxia Sword Society's losses were more than five times those of the Azure Dragon Society. After all, Benjamin Carter was intimately familiar with the Tianxia Sword Society, making the robbery especially smooth. Some even asserted: after this battle, Benjamin Carter's personal wealth was already on par with the total assets of any of the three major guilds.

However, just when many people were certain that Benjamin Carter would surely make a grand entrance and form a brand-new guild, to everyone's astonishment, Benjamin Carter never appeared in ""Shushan 2"" again after that.

Derek Foster disappeared from the game because of this incident; even a fool could figure out the reason—this great leader of the Tianxia Sword Society was too ashamed to face anyone. But as for why Benjamin Carter also vanished from ""Shushan 2,"" no one could guess. Although there were many theories on the ""Shushan 2"" forum later, none of them came close to the truth.

Even Brian White himself only figured out what had happened after an entire day, and realized just how awkward his situation was. All of this, in fact, is not a long story.

Brian White was Benjamin Carter in the game. After he posted that thread which caused a sensation on the ""Shushan 2"" forum for decades, he began the most exhilarating killing spree of his life. When he logged out of the game, he didn't know what happened—Brian White suddenly felt a tingling sensation and was knocked out by an electric shock. When he woke up again, he found himself in a strange place, surrounded by nothing but what could only be described as the wilderness. All his equipment was gone, leaving only a terribly poor-quality flying sword and a tattered blue Daoist robe.

Behind him was a cramped cave barely big enough to sit cross-legged in, offering no shelter from wind or rain. Under his butt was a rock jutting out into the air, with nothing but empty space to the left, right, and front. With just a casual glance downward, Brian White could see a sea of clouds, showing how high up he was. Looking up, all he could see was a lush green canopy, with no sight of the mountain peak. Whether up or down, there was no path—he was truly in a dead end.

At first, Brian White wasn't too panicked. He thought either the server had crashed or he'd been hacked. Either way, it wasn't a big deal—Brian White was someone who could handle loss. If his in-game level was gone, he'd just start over; if his items were gone, he'd just rob more; if he couldn't learn top sword techniques, he'd just create his own. But when he found he couldn't locate the option to log out, nor could he bring up the game interface, he finally felt a chill run down his spine.

As the day wore on, another set of memories, not his own, slowly surfaced in Brian White's mind. Only then did Brian White believe he had transmigrated, and wasn't just turned into an NPC in the game.

Chapter 3: If You've Transmigrated, Just Accept Your Fate

Brian White had transmigrated to a place called the Yanfuti World, becoming a disciple of the Chicheng Immortal Sect named David Stone.

The Yanfuti World had four continents: Dongcheng Shenzhou, Nanchan Buzhou, Xiniu Hezhou, and Beiluosi Zhou.

The Chicheng Immortal Sect was one of the seven great sword immortal sects of Nanchan Buzhou!

In other words, Brian White had actually transmigrated from an immortal cultivation game into a real world of immortals and swords.
