From Flying Talisms to Cars

For his graduation project in aerodynamics engineering at Zhongzhou University, Su Sheng gets sabotaged by a rival who happens to be a professor’s son. As a result, he draws the topic “Research into Flying Car Technology.” As luck would have it, Su Sheng has arrived from Earth with a Cultivation System. From then on, Blue Star’s technology tree goes completely off the rails.

When flying talismans are inscribed onto cars:

The CEO of an automobile company flies into a rage: “That bastard has no decency! Quick, pay him! We want flying talismans installed too!”

The chairman of an energy conglomerate curses furiously: “Pay Father Su, and tell him to put those powers away!”

When communication arrays blanket the globe:

The president of a telecommunications company is reduced to tears: “A whole year, an entire year, and I haven’t received a single cent in phone bills!”

The owner of a mobile phone manufacturer makes a snap decision: “You want money, you get money. You want shares, you get shares. I have just one request!”

When the pocket universes he creates become virtual reality game worlds, when teleportation arrays are spread throughout the universe, when alchemy produces cancer cures, when artifact forging produces invincible mechs, when beast taming gives rise to dragons and phoenixes, when spirit farming yields a hundred thousand jin of wheat per mu, when...

In an interview with the media, Su Sheng says, “Immortal arts? Magic? Slander, pure and simple. Don’t believe the rumors. We must believe in science. Science is the ladder on which human civilization advances!”

With that, Su Sheng teleports away.

It takes people until one day to realize: “What technology? You’ve been pulling the wool over our eyes. This is clearly cultivation!”
