Spring Wind Crosses Mountains and Rivers: Lighting the Way from 1944

In 2030, 31-year-old Du Chunfeng stood before an academician defense panel when a mechanical voice rang out in his mind:

The Mountains and Rivers System is activated. Each time the Host raises the nation's strength by one tier, he can exchange for cultivation arts, spells, supernatural abilities, and physiques from the Myriad Worlds!

His consciousness flickered, and when he opened his eyes, he was in the Taihang Mountains in 1944.

A gaunt young soldier pressed his last half a cornmeal bun into his hands. "Commander, eat something. You'll need strength to fight the Japanese."

Landmines made with local materials blew up Japanese supply lines. Homemade penicillin saved an entire field hospital. Radio intercepts revealed military intelligence thousands of miles away ahead of time. When the villagers called him a star of literary fortune descended from heaven, his first batch of Mountains and Rivers energy came through.

Body Tempering Art, Astral Qi Condensation, Indestructible Star Body... Once the energy came in, the first thing he exchanged for was a shipload of industrial blueprints for his country!

The flames of resistance against Japan, steam in the late Ming, cavalry in the Western Han, a chaotic age of superpowered beings, a post-apocalyptic sea of stars...

The youngest academician directs the fate of the land. Every inch of national strength brings an inch of energy, illuminating all of China!
