You Told Me to Turn Over a New Leaf, So Why Am I Cultivating with Cyber Capitalism?

[Worldbuilding: Demonic cyber-capitalist cultivation] [Comedy] [Lighthearted] [Overpowered protagonist]

After a thousand years in seclusion, Lu Fan, a demonic cultivator, reaches the Great Ascension stage and becomes a towering figure in the demonic path. But when he emerges, he finds that the cultivation world has taken a bizarre turn.

The Corpse Ghost Sect has reinvented itself as a force for public good, running hospitals, buying cemeteries, and building funeral homes. It treats the sick, handles burials, and offers corpse refinement as a complete package.

Blood cultivators from the Blood Demon Sect have become selfless blood-donation nurses, going from street to street to promote voluntary donations and diligently collecting and refining blood.

The Heart Demon Sect has turned into an army of justice, fighting crime, championing what’s right, and getting along with the people.

The Reincarnation Sect has gotten into lending and debt collection. Debts from this life carry over to the next. They used to come for your life; now they come to collect.

Flying swords now have canards, twin ventral air intakes, and an aerodynamic layout that leaves everything else far behind.

Sword cultivators study dogfighting, the Cobra maneuver, falling leaf, the yoyo maneuver, energy maneuverability, and high-altitude, high-speed flight.

The Heavenly Secrets Pavilion researches the stock market. When a Nascent Soul cultivator divorces, a young female immortal takes half his cultivation.

“Stop! Alcohol test. Blow into this!”

“Your blood alcohol level is over 200. You’re drunk and flying a sword. You’re coming with us!”

Lu Fan: “…”

The good news: The demonic path in the cultivation world has reformed!

The bad news: The righteous path has gotten just a tiny bit demonic!
