A Record of Cultivation Deconstructed

If cultivation were a grand program running, with magical power as its source code and divine sense as its compiler, then Ge Yu would be the most badass hacker around.

In this modern world brimming with spiritual energy, Ge Yu is a poor kid with a Level Ten trash spirit root. While others practice swordsmanship, he writes code; while others pit their magical power against their enemies, he pits his computing power against theirs. He has no overpowered stats, but his mind is as brilliant as a bolt of lightning.

When facing powerful foes who completely outclass him, his tactics always come down to three steps:

Step one: Hack into the formation's base layer and alter your execution code. Step two: Use spatial runes to seal off your escape routes.

Step three: Send thirty thousand sword beams around to flank you, then loot your gear without taking a scratch.

From turning the tables against stronger opponents at the bottom of West Lake, to a deadly battle against a higher-level foe on the beaches of Mingzhou; from being hunted by the whole world to completing the Celestial Star Project with his own hands.

He has no desire to be some beacon of righteousness. He follows just one basic rule: If you mess with my little sister, I'll take you down.

Lastly, let me say this: My updates may not be especially regular, since this is my first work.

I'm also a bit of a perfectionist and can get stubborn about things, so I won't sacrifice quality for the sake of efficiency. But I absolutely won't abandon the story, so you can rest assured. If you're interested, why not add it to your collection?

Even if I do take a break from updating, it'll only be for a few days at most. During those breaks, I'll be working out the plot, not slacking off.
