Cultivation Through Science

Li Goudan is a theoretical physics PhD whose devotion to equations cost him his hair. He opens his eyes to find himself a notorious good-for-nothing in the cultivation world. While others absorb the essence of the sun and moon and comprehend the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth, he whips out a vernier caliper to measure the precision of spiritual roots. While explosions ring out in pill chambers, he balances pill formulas with chemical equations and achieves a zero-explosion success rate. While cultivators fly on swords like drunken men, he writes a guide to applying the Bernoulli equation to sword flight. The cultivation world is outraged: "This brat is blaspheming the immortal path!"

But when his five-year tribulation prep course and three-year mock exam question bank appear out of nowhere, old monsters who have been stuck at bottlenecks for a century break through overnight. When his lecture notes on spiritual qi dynamics sell for astronomical prices, the big shots crowd around his door, begging for signed copies. When the aloof Holy Maiden Su Yaoguang knocks on his door late at night, all just to ask about a problem on "optimizing the coupling efficiency of dual cultivation spiritual energy"... the entire cultivation world is gripped by fear of being ruled by "science" and an "endless sea of exam questions"!
