Cultivating with Technology: From the Start, I Sign In for an Electromagnetic Flying Sword!

Lin Chen, a graduate student in engineering, transmigrates into the lowest-ranking servant of the Azure Cloud Sect. With a useless spirit root, his cultivation barely advances, and he suffers endless humiliation at the hands of the sect’s disciples. Ding! The Technology Sign-In System has been activated! By visiting special locations, he can sign in once a day. The rewards are all technological blueprints, rare materials, and engineering knowledge, but not a single one directly boosts his cultivation. Others use spiritual energy to fly on swords. He welds an electromagnetic launch track onto his flying sword, sending it out at supersonic speed. Veteran sword cultivators can’t even catch sight of its shadow. Others rely on a master alchemist’s intuition, with a success rate below thirty percent. He brings out a high-pressure spiritual energy reactor and raises the success rate to one hundred percent, mass-producing low-tier pills like candy. Others endure tribulations with their bodies. He sets up a superconducting lightning rod and recovers the tribulation’s energy on the spot. One tribulation is enough to charge it for ten years. He signs in at an abandoned sword mound and obtains electromagnetic flying sword blueprints. At the servant disciples’ tournament, one strike pierces a mountainside, face-slapping everyone present. He signs in at a pile of alchemical waste and obtains a spiritual energy catalyst, breaking the sect’s monopoly on pills and making a fortune. “Demonic arts? Evil contraptions?” Lin Chen dismantles a flying sword, revealing the precision superconducting coils inside. “This is technology! You wouldn’t understand.” While the Five Great Immortal Sects are still fighting tooth and nail over spirit veins, Lin Chen is already leading the loose cultivators’ alliance to build factories in the mountains: Automated weapon-forging assembly lines, spirit-stone power plants, electromagnetic railguns, nuclear fusion ascension towers... From thatched workshops to industrial immortal cities, he overturns the old order of the entire cultivation world with a complete industrial system. Then the extraterrestrial demons invade through a breach in the world, and traditional cultivators are driven back at every turn. The towering pagoda once condemned by the whole world as “clever but useless tricks” suddenly lights up, and a beam of plasma tears through the heavens. “Everyone, it’s science’s turn to save the world.”
