I Become the Ruler of the Interstellar World by Collecting Trash

Lin Shenxing, the former Sea Demon King, is betrayed by his adopted son and flees to the mainland in disgrace. There, he unexpectedly awakens an all-powerful Recycling System. By collecting scrap, he can exchange it for starships, stellar hydrogen bombs, magic manuals, blueprints for the universe's ten most powerful weapons, body-tempering elixirs, summoning talismans... The mall is packed with things that would drive countless carbon-based and mechanical lifeforms mad.

From the start, he casually picks up a broken plastic bag, only to summon a prehistoric behemoth that smashes a hundred warships with one swipe of its claw.

Plastic bags like that can be fished up by the handful just by going for a swim, let alone the scrap yards piled high with junk on land and the countless planets covered in waste...

Lin Shenxing has a bold idea: Why not build an interstellar fleet dedicated to collecting scrap?
