Scraping by in the Cultivation World: Dashun, I Don't Eat Beef

[Cultivation in Two Worlds + The Only One with Extraordinary Powers + Decisive and Ruthless + No Saintly Heroine + Cautious but Fearsome + No System + Alternate Modern World]

The Great Shun Dynasty has stood for four hundred years. After weathering World War II, it entered the modern age.

The emperor is still here, and so is the imperial court.

Nobles, tycoons, and thousand-year-old clans still tower above everyone else.

That is, until Lu Yuan opened a door.

On the other side was a world where people could truly cultivate immortality.

Ordinary people were less than weeds. Qi Refiners held life and death in their hands, Foundation Establishment cultivators could destroy a city with a snap of their fingers, and a Golden Core cultivator could wipe out a nation in a fit of rage.

Lu Yuan knew when to back down.

If he couldn't win, he ran. If he couldn't afford to offend someone, he endured it.

And if all else failed, he shut the door and went back to Great Shun.

Here, he was the only extraordinary being in the world.

The tycoons tried to crush him with money, the thousand-year-old clans with their influence, and the authorities with the law.

Lu Yuan couldn't help laughing.

He had to act like a nobody in the cultivation world, and now he was supposed to do the same back here?

Then what was the point of cultivating immortality?

By the time all of Great Shun finally learned that cultivators were real,

Lu Yuan had already taken his seat at the table.

“Today, I'm not eating beef.”

[In modern society, he can do whatever he wants. A satisfying power fantasy, through and through. Great Shun follows the timeline in which Li Zicheng, the Dashing King, founded the dynasty in place of the Ming, and it continued into the modern era.]
