Cultivating Immortality with an Abacus

----Completely revised edition in progress----

Child: Are you an immortal?

Zhou Shan: I'm not.

Child: Liar! I saw you use immortal arts.

Zhou Shan: Do you want to learn?

Child: I don't have a spiritual root...

Zhou Shan: That's okay. I can teach you something else.

Child: Is it even more powerful than immortal arts?

Zhou Shan: Yes, even more powerful.

This is a story about resistance.

Spirit Infusion

is the greatest invention

in the history of the cultivation civilization.

Even mortals born without spiritual roots can embark on the path of cultivation and become immortals.

Taking advantage of this,

cultivation clans rise to power, feeding on the mortal world to strengthen themselves.

The Western Boundless Divine Kingdom expands at breakneck speed, setting the world ablaze with war in its bid to unite the Lower Realm.

Across the sea, the Fallen Demon World is sharpening its claws, eyeing the Ascension Continent.

A Deity Transformation ruin appears, opening a passage to the Upper Realm, while the ten great sects remain locked in endless infighting.

Yet, in corners unseen by the immortals, countless mortals are awakening.

From that moment on,

the age of immortals slowly draws to a close.

The age of mortals begins.

A materialist worldview of cultivation

Dedicated to explaining immortal arts in ways ordinary people can understand,

and ultimately bringing them down from their lofty pedestal!

·

The writing is serious most of the time, though the occasional absurd bit may slip in. If that's not your thing, feel free to skip it, but please don't drop the novel!

·

This is not a traditional cultivation novel.

The pacing is relatively slow to start.

Volume One: The Mortal Arc, 55 chapters.

The story properly enters the immortal sects from Chapter 56 onward.

The early pacing is on the slow side, so please bear with me.
