In the Dharma-Ending Age, where the spiritual energy is exhausted, the civilization of cultivation has withered.
Shen Wei, a doctor of materials science, traveled through time and became the last descendant of a declining cultivation family. He awakened the "Book of Merit" system and discovered a new path to enlightenment that does not require spiritual energy - using human merit as fuel and scientific thinking as a tool to repair this broken cultivation world.
When he used a spectrometer to analyze the golden light of merit, used probability to decipher ancient formations, and used engineering to rebuild the spiritual energy cycle, the common sense of the entire cultivation world was completely overturned.
But Shen Wei gradually discovered that the exhaustion of spiritual energy was not a natural phenomenon, but a conspiracy that lasted for thousands of years. When he tried to mend the cracks in the rules of heaven, he also became a "variable" that must be eliminated in the eyes of some beings.
This is a collision between science and metaphysics, a duel between tradition and innovation. When the final crack in the way of heaven appears in front of him, Shen Wei faces the ultimate choice: should he use his body to conform to the way, or... Use the new laws he brings to rewrite the definition of immortality in this world?
