In the 3,872nd year of the Immortal Prefecture, Lu Ye transmigrated into an extremely modern world of cultivation.
Looking at the new-energy spirit-flying swords, the flying-sword food delivery service, the spiritual-power pipelines that reached every home, and the land requisition and demolition... How was this different from the world of cultivation in his head?
Wait a minute! Why was he involved in this land requisition and demolition too?
But when Lu Ye looked through the original owner's memories, he discovered that the fool had been egged on by his own uncle into becoming a stubborn holdout, demanding that the Immortal Prefecture offer more "reasonable" compensation.
As someone who had transmigrated, Lu Ye knew full well that stubborn holdouts never came to a good end.
Besides, this was a world where people could cultivate immortality!
The original owner was a nobody, a disposable underling, yet he thought he could fight a behemoth like the Immortal Prefecture. That was like an old woman doing backflips: he was practically asking for death!
Once he'd thought it through, Lu Ye changed his attitude as soon as the demolition team showed up. He agreed to the demolition.
While packing up to move, Lu Ye stumbled upon an ancient jade pendant that could take him to another world of ancient cultivation.
The drawbacks of the modern cultivation world, such as spiritual energy being as expensive as oil and reusing corpses, didn't exist there at all.
That's when Lu Ye realized he might have found something extraordinary.
If he could bring the abundant spiritual energy of the ancient cultivation world back to the modern cultivation world, then take the cultivation technology missing from the ancient world back there...
If he kept trading back and forth like that, wouldn't he make a fortune?
And so began the cultivation journey of a prodigy who appeared to be a peerless talent of the immortal path, but was really a middleman trading between two worlds.
