《The Lonely Wanderer》Chapter 40: Maximum Devastation Ah Ah Ah Aaaaahhhhh
Advertisement
With only one hour passing on the outside world had in turn already been 1,050 days in Crimsons world. Within this time frame, Shenzi had already faced 35,000 different curses and more than 12,500 combinations. Each time the body becomes destroyed, it is equally rejuvenated and enhanced. With Shenzi's steadfast spirit he was already withstanding the crushing force of a peak 4th stage expert. With the monstrous increase to his fleshly body and Spirit Force, Devastation has adjusted to the crushing power of a 7th-star fifth stage expert.
Of course, gain shadows pain just like fortune and misfortune. Shenzi had already become accustomed to the suppressed movements and energy he can muster.
Each time his body becomes crushed to the point of disintegration. His spine adjusts allowing room for more flexible movements. Just like a snake able to wrap itself around a tree, Shenzi's spine has become as such loose but resilient.
With his hard work blood and sweat, what others would usually have tapped out ages ago. Shenzi had already surpassed the majority of all immortal practitioners. Afterall many have treaded dangers, but eventually, all knives become dull losing the sheen that made them prideful.
Surpassing many Shenzi had already started forming Internal Vision of his body. Over this strenuously long hour, Shenzi has already become able to control 15% of his bodily functions to the cellular level. As well being able to enter the state of Hyperactive Simulation. When in this state it's as if time has exceeded the limits. However, the dangers lay in this state burns the blood cells, and bodily functions go into overdrive. In some cases pushing 100, 200, even 300% being in this state is beneficial, but it's also harmful if one cannot control their self correctly.
Along with the brutal onslaughts from the unknown curses or combinations following afterwards. There is Dao Checks and even Lesser Tribulations of Sword Dao, Sabre Dao, Sun Dao, Chaos Dao, Destruction Dao. Everything combines into one set completely pushing evolution to perfection.

Continuing with his practice combining both forms of Waxing Gibbous. Each step of the way improvements gradually connecting into one perfect technique.
Through thousands of trials and errors so far, Shenzi had finally found a perfect in-between. The only problem is the lack of Spirit Energy he can use. So the next issue arrives, how does he make do with four thin threads of Spirit Energy and turn it into tumultuous waves?
Pondering over his current issue four threads are great for multitasking and are more flexible than one thicker thread. Coming to this conclusion Shenzi begins to "knit" the Spirit threads together. Criss-crossing and interlocking each thread to firmly stack upon each other.
Rotating the upper and the lower level in separate directions, the friction between the two levels ignites the Spirit Thread. Making high pitched thuuuh sounds. Shenzi once again practices his Waxing Gibbous. No more "globe" just like the sea of stars above with fourteen blazing suns orbiting around the moon. With the knitted Spirit Thread boosting the maximum output by 3x. What would usually leave behind just a small fracture in the earth, lays a 6x6 square patch dented two meters deep compared to the un-knitted Spirit Thread.
Coming up with a new way to enhance his Spirit Energy, Shenzi begins madly training this. Only through theory and the practical can the ideas in his mind be given life.
Unknown to him while he's going through these deadly curses and tribulations, the past experts who had donned Devastation. Leaving behind Spiritual marks meant to train the future "Fiends" were conversing in secret.
"Bandonka donks he's already surpassed you back in your day. By this time you already gave up for the fifth time. However, Crimsons son is the definition of badass unlike you" sounds out a gruff voice. Followed by a soothing voice like that of a siren "Shut up shit for brains, this kid thinks with the head on his shoulders instead of you with your ego over one inch."

While these two immature ones were verbally mocking each other over their resulting pride, a monotone thug sounding voice sounds out "10,000, 20,000, 30,000 curses ah ah ah aaaaahhhhh. So far, the kid has put the both of you to shame and has come up with a way to combat the Spirit Energy suppression."
"While you two are fighting like brats, this youngling is doing something many of us want to quit many times. Hell if he keeps up at this rate, he'll beat my record of giving up once and completing Devastation in one fell swoop the second time around. However, this kid is having too much success with this. While Crimson is recuperating what do you guys think about adding some "spice" to this?" Both children bickering over their "exclusive pride" go silent, then start sadistically laughing like a professor finding new valuable material for research.
While practicing his Waxing Gibbous to perfection, Shenzi feels a significant change in Devastation. The temperature spikes up as if frying his internal organs in a frying pan over high heat. The force he was donning of a 7th-star 5th stage, had upped itself to a 4th-star 6th stage practitioner.
The body checks became more severe and clocked in every five seconds. The curses became terrifying, the spiritual pain, internal and the external pain to the cellular level. What was once "comforting" had all of a sudden become like a ferocious Mutant Beast, tearing Shenzi apart from head to toe.
All of the Dao checks had become like the judge listening to the jury "guilty." Each time the hammer descends, Shezni becomes helpless as the pressure builds up fast and out of his comprehension range. With the Divine Body, Empyrean Retribution Shenzi is considered to be a favoured by the fallen heaven.
With his current state and how deep he developed alone, and then with Devastations boost. He had already surmounted what many who have combined with their first Domain could achieve.
Thirty minutes pass slowly and treacherously, with twice the pressure and difficulty. Shenzi had just managed to grow accustomed to this feeling. When once again the thug's voice sounds out to the other spirits, "Maximum Devastation Ah Ah Ah Aaaaahhhhh."

The Beta Test
Our nameless narrator participates in a beta test for an early VRMMO game Meridian 60. That's not the real name but it captures the spirit of the adventure given the chronological and contextual era of the game. His character is unique and special but purely for mundane reasons and not because of any inherent or social significance. The first chapter which is mandatory to submit a story on RR serves as a bit of a prologue with some exposition, although I limited that to a reasonble level. I plan to begin releasing additional chapters starting Thursday, to align with the 48 hour submission approval process and also because I have something to do Wednesday. I haven't written anything but the summary and first chapter, nor have I plotted anything out. This is because my plan is to release roughly 34000 words a day, 10 chapters of ~12.5 pages each, for 3 days at which point the story will be complete. I'd have liked to plan for more but handling the interface tables and so forth needed for a data heavy litrpg slows down the writing process. 100k words is a bit short, a standard pre epic fantasy 300 page spec fic novel, but this is mostly a writing exercise and I am considering a longer project if I can maintain the pace. Probably do a different concept, maybe a dungeon core, over 5 days, since a 500 page novel is more common these days. Slight subversion of VRMMO stories Stat heavy/crunchy No paying your bills by gaming No out of game conspiracies No angst, interpersonal drama, or damsels/dudes in distress Schedule is 30000 words a day excepting the first chapter, a limitation of RRs fiction submission system Fantasy, high magic, male lead, no party, guild, or harem No gore, some profanity, no sexual content, and no current plans for anything traumatic
