This is an era where psychic energy and machinery coexist. Human beings no longer pursue the ancient physical penance, but instead integrate cold metal, precise data flow and mysterious spiritual energy, using mechanical ascension as the only way to power and eternity. The towering mechanical city, the consciousness shuttled in the torrent of data, and the cybernetic bodies armed to the teeth, constitute this cold and glorious world.
Lin Mu was born in a slum in the shadow of this giant mechanical city. He was a gray-level citizen judged by the system to have "extremely low psychic affinity and mediocre mechanical adaptability." In the fateful "awakening ceremony", he was ruthlessly labeled as the lowest class, indicating that he could only struggle to survive at the bottom of the city.
However, what no one knew was that deep inside his body, it was not the depletion and mediocrity detected by the system, but a "seed of origin" from an unknown dimension that was quietly sprouting. This seed can not only swallow spiritual energy, but also analyze data. It can also perfectly integrate ancient cultivation methods with cutting-edge mechanical technology, opening up an unprecedented path to "cyber immortality".
Facing the world's discrimination and oppression, Lin Mu restrained his sharp edges and pretended to be a harmless low-level ant. In an unnoticed corner, he silently absorbed the psychic residue and data garbage that had been filtered and discarded by the city system. When everyone thought he would die in the darkness, he had already built a mechanical spiritual core in his body that surpassed the understanding of the times, and mastered the secret of controlling the data torrent and psychic storm.
