An overworked corporate drone transmigrates to a world of immortal cultivation with his Huawei phone, only to discover that his homeland is the greatest golden finger of all:
Other people cultivate immortality with talent. I do it with optimization patches sent by the nation.
Other people ascend alone. When I ascend, I’ll have 1.4 billion people behind me.
I was squatting in the bathroom in the middle of the night when I transmigrated to a world of immortal cultivation.
Good news: I was still clutching the Huawei Mate 80 Pro I’d just managed to buy.
Bad news: There was no toilet paper.
Even worse news: A Golden Core demon was waiting outside to use me as an ingredient for his medicine.
Hiding in the latrine, I tremblingly sent a text to 110: “Comrade, I’ve transmigrated. Requesting rescue...”
Much later, a text came back from an unfamiliar number:
“Comrade Li Fan, by order of the highest authorities, the nation believes in you.”
“Starting today, your mission is to survive, then submit the cultivation techniques to the nation, one book at a time.”
I thought I was the chosen one. Turns out, I was the nation’s first field agent sent to the world of immortal cultivation.
Later, the Chinese Academy of Sciences sent me optimized cultivation techniques, a special operations team came through a teleportation array to protect me, and 1.4 billion of my fellow citizens secretly began practicing Qi cultivation back home...
Then the sky split open.
It wasn’t one person ascending.
It was 1.4 billion people, some riding swords, some standing on clouds, and those who couldn’t fly taking the “Flying Boat” bus, all shouting slogans as they crossed into another world.
The old monsters of the cultivation world trembled and asked, “What kind of demonic path is this?!”
I smiled faintly.
“Comrade, this is called cultivation with Chinese characteristics.”
