Programmer, but Sword Immortal

Ling Yun, a Sword Immortal from the Immortal Realm, sealed his cultivation to overcome his inner demon tribulation and became a P7 programmer at a major tech company, taking the blame for everyone else.

He had planned to quietly experience life in the mortal world.

That was until the “Inner Demon’s Call,” supposedly long extinct, crawled out of the code he was maintaining.

A PIP agreement was shoved in his face, HR smiled with a knife behind their back, and the newly launched AI System turned out to have an ancient forbidden technique that devoured souls at its core.

“So we’re playing by mortal rules, are we?”

Ling Yun closed DingTalk and typed a line of code.

A torrent of binary became his sword, and the glow of the screen lit up his eyes.

Later, the entire internet went down, and every device flashed the same warning:

“Illegal cultivation protocol detected. Immortal-Slaying Program, initiating.”

The director broke down in his office. “He’s just a guy who writes bugs!”

Ling Yun watched the spreading corrupted data and pressed Enter.

“That’s right, but what I’m fixing is the Heavenly Dao.”
