You Were Supposed to Comprehend the Dao, So Why Are You Building a Starship?

The Dao Era is nearing its end, and spiritual energy is running dry. Li Qing was born into this world. At the age of twelve, he obtained a System and opened a portal to another world. By the time he came of age, he had become the Lord of the Stars in that other world.

In the world where Li Qing was born, cultivation and enlightenment are the most important things of all. In the other world, mighty ships and cannons forge a romance of blood and fire.

Qi Refining to shatter the void, Golden Cores to become gods! Toppling mountains and shaking the earth, turning rivers and churning seas: none of it has anything to do with Li Qing, the notorious owner of a useless spiritual root.

What Li Qing pursues is technology, and the vast sea of stars in another world.

On the day he became a Star Lord, Li Qing decided to bring his starships to the fantasy world.

"Everyone else is refining qi, but you're building cannons?"

"Everyone else is forming Golden Cores, but you're trying to break through the atmosphere?"

"Everyone else is forming Nascent Souls, but you're thinking about interstellar colonization?"

"What? You even signed a pact with an ancient evil god?"

Through one technological revolution after another, and unspeakable bargains with the spirit realm, Li Qing ascended to the throne of the fantasy world.
