Cultivation Is a Game: A Xianxia Litrpg (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798895394243)

A xianxia fan finds himself swept into a system-run world--and he's about to learn there's a rather harsh difference between fantasy and reality . . .

One minute, Kai was in his element: surrounded by piles of snacks and soda in a darkened room, blazing a trail of mayhem through an extended RPG video game session with his online cohorts. Sure, it wasn't exactly poppin' bottles of Cristal up in the club, but he was more than fine with it.

After taking down a particularly pesky high-ranking boss, however, Kai finds himself suddenly jolted out of his Earthly reality and cast into a realm he's only ever read about. A world of skills and levels, cultivators and spellcasters, in which the life force known as Qi means everything. In short, a world where Kai can kick some serious ass.

But even as he grows in power and heroic ambition, Kai comes to realize the consequences of playing this game could be all too real. And not only for himself and his loyal friends but for the entire world . . .
