Mechanical Ascension Starts from Picking up Corpses

In the year 850 of the New Calendar, the world of immortality was at its peak, with tens of thousands of sects and strong men. However, under the prosperity, there is extremely uneven distribution of resources. A single herb can trigger a bloody battle. When the low-level monks stepped into the immortal gate, they discovered that they were just slaves with different identities. Until the psychic storm came, rewriting the laws of heaven and earth overnight. The spiritual energy is exhausted, the spiritual veins are broken, and all the techniques, formations, and magic weapons that rely on the movement of spiritual energy are reduced to scrap metal. Immortal gates collapsed, monks fell, and mortals struggled to survive amid famine and plague. That long period of darkness, known as the "Great Silence," lasted for three hundred years. Three hundred years later, the psychic reactor came out and Kyushu ushered in a new era. Data has replaced the law book, and computing power has replaced cultivation. The former sect has transformed into a company that monopolizes everything. Lin Feng's father used to be a member of the Kunlun Security Department and died in the mission of chasing down the rebels. As a family member, he was not given preferential treatment and was still a mine mechanic. My mother is seriously ill and relies on the company's medical benefits to survive. Late that night, he found a body on his way to get off work. Before the killer could take out the chip from the deceased, Link took the lead and got the fifth-level psychic chip. He used it to open the encrypted hard drive left by his father and activated an intelligent AI called "Rebel". Now, Hu's killer has been targeted. People from the company are also tracing the whereabouts of the chip.
