Programmer Ling Chen died suddenly while working overtime, and his soul traveled to a world of cyber cultivation where flying swords and optical fibers flew together, and talismans shared the same code color. He became a useless disciple of the run-down sect "Tiangong Sect", but unexpectedly gained the strange ability to see the underlying code of all things.
He originally wanted to wait for death by finding bugs and patching, but he got into trouble with Liyue, the female president of Bingshan Technology, the largest technology company in the world of cultivation. One is a sandbox programmer who takes on any job for the sake of spiritual stones, and the other is a mysterious AI administrator who puts rationality first.
The two of them worked together to fight monsters (anti-virus), download dungeons (climb the data center), and fix bugs (maintain world peace). During the day and night exchanges, Ling Chen found that there seemed to be a "bug" in his heartbeat - he was actually attracted to a bunch of data?
However, when the hidden conspiracy of the spirit network gradually emerged, Liyue's cold program logic clashed fiercely with Ling Chen's fiery human code. The "underlying agreement" is about to cover all emotions, and the countdown to the end of the world has begun...
Ling Chen tightened his grip on his keyboard: "Isn't it just a matter of reinstalling the system? Wait... I'll write her a love letter program first to try to keep her!"
This is the ultimate adventure of using comedy to fight cruelty and using code to rewrite the laws of heaven.
