[The Fourth Calamity] [Ensemble cast] [Cultivation] [Hardcore farming]
Lu Ming's soul transmigrates into the will of an abandoned weapon ruin in the cultivation world. Its spiritual ley lines are exhausted, and it is on the verge of vanishing.
To save himself, he submits an absurd proposal to the System: bind the consciousness of Earth players to the ruin's weapons and send them into the cultivation world.
And so...
In a rusted sword on an ancient battlefield hides a university student pulling an all-nighter to finish a paper;
Reflected in a bronze mirror discarded by a sect is the weary face of an office worker grinding through dungeons.
They pick up cultivators' corpses as “vehicles,” cultivate, fight, and even undergo tribulations as weapons. They can customize spiritual roots and golden cores in the System shop, embarking on a “second life.”
Meanwhile, Lu Ming, an “operator” who cannot leave the ruins, spends his days adjusting the settings so the players won't curse him, and his nights calculating spiritual energy and worrying about going bankrupt. He also has to deal with rumors of a sudden “weapon uprising” in the cultivation world...
When the ancient immortal sects finally realize that these “strange weapons” cannot be killed or refined, and that they even band together to demand back pay and expose people on the forums...
A storm about “reality” and “existence” is quietly brewing between two worlds.
