Chen Buxiu traveled through time, in a world of immortal cultivation where resources were exhausted and involution led to death.
His wish was simple: to hold on to his three-cent spiritual land and live in peace without fighting or grabbing it. For this reason, he hid in the most remote cave of the sect and lived a little transparent life.
Until one day, a crack opened deep in the cave - the other end was the Chinese infrastructure construction site in 2026.
Since then, the life of salted fish has changed.
The "thousand-year-old iron essence" regarded as the most precious treasure in the world of immortality is just a special steel from the earth's steel factory; the "rejuvenation charm" that the monks are flocking to is not as effective as the safety monitoring sensor on the construction site. Cement, steel bars, and excavators, catalyzed by spiritual energy, became heaven-defying artifacts for making defensive arrays and siege puppets.
Chen Buxiu originally wanted to make a fortune quietly: using solar panels for lighting, using concrete to harden the ground, and using water purifiers to replace water fetching. But when the sect competition and the invasion of the demon sect came one after another, his "modernized" cave became a favorite in everyone's eyes.
The socially feared Xianyu was forced to go into business and became the largest contractor in the two industries.
On one side, the elders of the sect have changed from ridicule to reliance, and on the other side, the earth foreman Lao Zhang firmly believes that "science and technology are the primary productive forces." Chen Buxiu just wants to wait for the project to get on track and continue to lie down.
But he didn't know that this mentality of "protecting one side without fighting for it" coincided with the "natural way" lost in ancient times - the way of heaven is not fought for, but defended.
When the outside world was bloody for resources, he drank Coke and basked in the sun in the cave, and his cultivation quietly reached the peak of this world.
