Synopsis

Three hundred years ago, the Deep Abyss Federation’s psychic battleships descended upon Da Qian.

They did not destroy this world.

They simply brought with them a different set of rules.

Standards, patents, assembly lines.

From then on, cultivators could ride flying swords, but could not build their own spirit machines. Sects were everywhere, yet they could only buy technologies discarded by realms beyond their own.

Three hundred years later, Ji Ming awoke with the memories of an industrial chief engineer from his previous life.

Faced with his family’s heavy-industry factory on the verge of being swallowed up, the first thing he did was gather a group of students everyone else had given up on and repair a machine that everyone thought was scrap metal.

To others, it was a pile of junk.

To him, it was the first domestically made spirit machine capable of changing the times.

No divine weapon choosing its master, no lucky opportunity falling from the sky.

Only blueprints, furnace fires, steel, and a group of people who refused to give up.

It began with a battered Xuan Armor.

Ji Ming’s goal was not to forge a divine artifact.

It was to let all of Da Qian reclaim the right to define the future.

Any Original Stories? I’m Sick of These Same Old Popular Plots

Recommend some fresh, original fantasy novels. No mainstream tropes, no lousy rebirth stories, no urban novels where the protagonist shows off and bumps into a beauty around the corner, and no apocalyptic stories with superpowers or a System. Are there any fantasy novels outside those categories? Ideally, something with a fresh premise and theme.
