When Lu Li's mechanical spine connects to the ruins of his grandfather's quantum laboratory, his cultivation world's admission letter turns into an exorbitant bill for spiritual marrow.
In his left hand is a spiritual-energy learning device for toddlers bearing the Lin family's tech logo. In his right is a quantum furnace converted from a microwave. The insulated box for cultivation takeout chills cloned-body culture fluid, while the Xuantian Sect's sword arts update automatically in a toddler learning system.
Here, no one flies on swords. Instead, drone swarms deliver fragments from sword tombs.
Here, talent and spiritual roots don't matter. What counts is the protocol version of your brain-computer interface.
Here, no one fears being struck by lightning during a tribulation, but you do have to watch out for the data flood caused by the capitalization of spiritual marrow.
The truth behind the Quantum Tribulation:
- Surveillance footage from his grandfather's laboratory shows him dying thirty years ago, but the cultivation takeout System has his orders from this week on record.
- The gluttonous beast-patterned ID badge of Zhou Dafu, an elder of the Xuantian Sect, can devour the equity agreements of the Tiangong Group.
- Clone No. 114 of his Dao companion Yu Qing has instructions for refining artifacts with a microwave engraved on her collarbone.
