"The Algorithm of the Firmament" is my first novel. Please feel free to offer suggestions! I hope you all have a wonderful day, every day!
When the entire world is a program running under the "laws of Heaven," cultivating immortality becomes a matter of "decoding" and "programming." How will a young man with a modern scientific mindset use mathematics and logic to spark a revolution in this world of the supernatural?
Others cultivate immortality through sudden enlightenment. I do it by writing code.
Power System: Runes Are Code
The Essence: The world operates according to "source rules," much like a world's underlying source code. Cultivators learn the special language of "runes" to influence these source rules and wield supernatural abilities.
· Stages of cultivation:
· Qi Sensing → Foundation Establishment → Golden Core → Nascent Soul → Deification → Return to Emptiness (the endpoint of this volume)
· Each stage corresponds to a different level of "programming privileges." At the Qi Sensing stage, cultivators can only "read" spiritual energy. At the Foundation Establishment stage, they can "call" basic rules, such as making fire or drawing water. At the Golden Core stage, they form a personal "kernel" for efficient computation. At the Nascent Soul stage, they can process "multiple threads." At the Deification stage, they can locally "rewrite" rules. At the Return to Emptiness stage, they approach "administrator" privileges.
· The World Itself: Heaven and Earth are an emotionless "server," and the Great Dao is the supreme administrator,
