However, on that very day, a player developed a hunting mode suitable for "Dissolving" Life Souls.
This player also enthusiastically posted their concepts and actual combat videos on the forum, naming it Trap Stream tactics.
The strength of this tactic lies in the ability to complete level-cross hunting easily.
In the attached demonstration video.
A five-player squad in the Ancient Battlefield area dug a trench two ters deep and more than ten ters long, then filled it with common items like Earth Spikes and torches bought from the store, turning the passage into a trap corridor that damages any creature that advances through it.
At the end of that corridor is a pool of solution spit out after the player transford into a Mud Demon.
The hunting process is quite simple, where one mber of the squad uses their physical body as bait to attract several Blood Corpses into the corridor.
The player standing at the end of the corridor becos the target of the Blood Corpses at that mont.
What follows is a setup akin to that of Plants vs. Zombies.
Every step a Blood Corpse takes, it is injured, with the four players at the end of the corridor continuously throwing Fireballs in Bone Fire Form, intensifying the injuries of the Blood Corpses.
Eventually, the Blood Corpses fall into a hole dug by the players in front of their standing area and soak in the dissolution pool, eting their death.
This tactic received lots of likes from forum players, giving the previously critically-rated Dissolve Life Soul a place for practical use, and Trap Stream beca the first non-frontal combat tactic since the server opened, sparking interest in setting traps among many players.
And this was exactly what Qi Sheng wanted to see.
The creative ingenuity of players is gradually unfolding in Monster World.
For every option of Life Soul, there is a practical use found through inventive combinations.

Skywind City, slums.
Exiting the ga, Li Zheng’s vision shifted from the virtual desktop back to reality.
The intense weakness made it difficult for Li Zheng to adjust, and he even pondered re-entering the Dark Land.
The disparity between the ga and reality beca particularly apparent after leveling up.
In the ga, his main human form perfectly inherited the attributes of Level 24 Black Armored Snake and Level 11 Power Barbarian Axe, making his comprehensive attribute 15 tis that of the initial main form, and in reality, this would be nothing short of superhuman.
Attribute enhancent brought about more than just changes in numbers on the status panel.
His senses also transford as he leveled up, making the whole world appear more vivid in perception.
For example, his vision sharpened with each level-up, previously blurry sceneries beca crystal clear, even minute dust particles beca distinctly visible under light, enriching the colors of the world.
In hearing, the sounds beca three-dinsional and delicate, from the rustle of wind through leaves, the deep roars of distant monsters, to even the subtle sound of falling leaves touching the ground—all beca clearly audible.
In touch, he could feel more detailed tactile differences through stroking objects in the ga.
The sa goes for sll and taste; scents and odors in the air could be captured precisely, and the flavors of food beca more layered.
Importantly, this sharpening of senses was not just a physical enhancent but also accompanied by a spiritual awakening, synchronizing the enhancent of perception and cognitive abilities.
It felt as if his body rged with nature, reaching the Unity of Heaven and Man state only depicted in movies and novels, experiencing wonderful feedback unattainable in reality.
This is also why returning to reality after logging out caused a significant disparity in his inner feelings.
His forr body felt as though it was burdened with heavy shackles, a feeling he had grown accustod to before, but in the ga, his body shed this heavy restraint, completely freeing his sensory perception, making actions and thoughts sharp.
But after exiting the ga, that heavy shackle ca back.
His vision turned dim, perception beca dull, and all feedback was so bad, making him feel extrely uncomfortable.
The ga capsule opened, and Li Zheng got up.
After showering to wash off the nutrient solution, he returned to his desk, started reviewing recent transaction statents.
Comparatively confirming the paynts for sold sacrificial power, feeling ravenous, he promptly ordered a luxurious takeout, deciding to treat himself well.
"Before the release of ’Dark Land,’ people online were already predicting that this ga would start a new myth of wealth creation, creating a large number of new-era tycoons.
Just like the historical waves of the internet, artificial intelligence reforms, digital transformation, and the ergence of virtual worlds, the launch of Dark Land would bring forth a plethora of new era leaders.
The speculation at that ti has now beco reality in the ga.
The initial performance of Dark Land has led to a trend of wealth redistribution, where pay-to-play players are willing to buy labor from grinding players at high prices, allowing these transactions to convert ’labor outcos’ in the ga into real-world earnings, without any deductions such as taxes.
More importantly, the ga Dark Land has changed his quality of life.
He has also decided to rely on this ga, Dark Land, for his livelihood from now on.
Perhaps, with his early-mover advantage, he could make a career in the ga.
While waiting for the delivery, Li Zheng browses the largest Star Network Forum of the Human Clan Federation: Human Race Ascension.
After finding the Dark Land section, the posts listed were mostly recruitnt information; there were few discussions about the ga itself.
Li Zheng wasn’t surprised by this.
Every ga developed by the Moon Eclipse Clan has an integrated forum, including Dark Land which he is currently playing; the ga’s forum feature is so comprehensive, there’s no need to use external forums to discuss ga content.
While browsing, a post title caught his attention.
[Dark Land, the biggest promotional scam in history, although priced at 128888, it does not reach the epoch-making ga concept ntioned in the promotions.]
Poster: Birth Certificate (IP: Yelan City)
Curious, Li Zheng used his mouse to click on the title.
The content inside made Li Zheng open his eyes wide.
The poster first discussed the issue of the ga’s realism,
stating that the 100% realism touted in the Moon Eclipse Clan’s advertisents was unachievable, and at best, it could only achieve 90% realism. Upon closer observation, many issues can still be seen in the ga environnt’s feedback and modeling texture.
Next, the poster ntioned the problem of delays in Star Network feedback.
It stated that there are occasional delays and lags in loading within the ga, such as when players suddenly teleport to a new area and see a mosaic scene, waiting a few seconds before the modeling gradually appears during loading.
There are also issues with physical performance; players can actually fly up into the sky through exploiting bugs, and characters can get stuck in the map scene if players repeatedly exit and enter the ga.
Other issues include interaction feedback frequency, data processing speed, and so on.
In conclusion, the posting player believed that this ga could surpass ’Land of Sin,’ a virtual ga released five years ago, but it definitely did not reach the level of epoch-making progress, and can only be rated as excellent; however, there is a significant difference from what the advertisents promised.
The poster hoped the Moon Eclipse Clan officials could optimize the ga content soon, stating that this ga still holds imnse potential for developnt and should not be ruined by optimization and other issues.
After reading the post, only one thought crossed Li Zheng’s mind.
The posting player was obviously triggered and was just talking nonsense.
The critical descriptions of the ga were absurd, nothing but rumors and slanders about Dark Land.
Since the server opened, having experienced the ga content for nearly a month now, isn’t he clear about the good and bad of Dark Land?
None of the issues ntioned by the poster had ever occurred to him in the ga; the ga Dark Land has already achieved a perfect level of realism with no discernible flaws in any detail.
This point has also been discussed several tis in the in-ga forum, where all players agreed that this ga had reached a level beyond modern technology, creating a whole new world.
Clicking on the poster’s profile, Li Zheng found that his avatar was a purchase verification receipt, proving that the poster had indeed purchased and experienced the ga content.
But this discovery only made Li Zheng more furious, believing that the other party was spreading baseless rumors.
Hating on the ga, huh?
He imdiately screenshotted the content of this post to the Liver Emperor Group.
The players in the Liver Emperor Group, who were discussing the next day’s group dining event, after seeing Li Zheng’s shared screenshots, all expressed fierce words, planning to go to the Human Race Ascension Forum to defend Dark Land and blast the rumor-mongering player."
