What Era Is This, and You're Still Cultivating the Traditional Way?

The next morning.

Lin Hao slightly opened his eyes, using his weak hand to shield his eyes from the sunlight.

What happens?

Why did I faint again?

Wrong!

Goblin!

Suddenly, Lin Hao stood up from the ground, mobilizing his Spiritual Qi, and the long sword in his hand roared.

But when he took a clear look at his surroundings, his expression turned even more grim.

Village?

There must be no villages there.

Because right now, the surrounding area is a cemetery!

Tombstones stand in the place that should belong to the village.

The tombstone is engraved with incomprehensible characters that are completely unreadable.

A gentle breeze blew by, bringing an intense chill.

Even Lin Hao, who had already enveloped himself in Spiritual Qi, couldn't help but feel a chill run down his spine.

No energy fluctuations?

It seems even the so-called sound has disappeared.

Carefully observing his surroundings, Lin Hao moved his feet, pondering the events of the previous night.

Only when I was completely away from that burial mound did I breathe a sigh of relief.

That place is too eerie.

Lin Hao gently wiped the sweat from his forehead, his movements slightly stiffening.

This is···

On the back of his left hand, there was a light-colored pattern.

The design appears to depict a person, specifically a woman.

The drops of bright red color were scattered and intertwined, looking quite eerie.

Some kind of Curse?

The sound of that thing from last night flashed through Lin Hao's mind. His gaze fell on the back of his hand as he made his guess.

He never expected that he would encounter such a thing just by passing through a place.

Although the sect had many trivial matters, there was no real danger to one's life. I quite missed it when I was away from home.

On the mountain range.

Lin Hao did not stop because of what happened last night, and continued in one direction.

At a certain building.

Office.

Our General Manager Ding had a cigarette dangling from his mouth, his gaze fixed on the video in front of him.

Since he used the power of technology to utterly defeat Lin Hao last time, he suddenly gained a new understanding of cultivation.

He has plenty of money!

Low combat power after training?

Let's go straight for the technological Law Treasure!

Cultivation is slow, and you're unable to advance to the next realm?

Find researchers to conduct specialized research on so-called Spiritual Qi and experiment with methods to gather more Spiritual Qi.

There are always more solutions than problems.

He refused to believe that scientific cultivation of immortality could be inferior to traditional cultivation.

In any case, in the battle between modern cultivation and traditional cultivation, modern cultivation has already taken the lead.

Ding Qi touched the electric baton, Law Treasure located on the left side of the table, and smiled.

"System, you can't do any of your functions, yet you expect me to complete tasks? Are you trying to get something for nothing?"

Ding Qi muttered to himself, fiddling with the stick in his hand.

He hadn't paid any attention to this broken Entertainment System for a long time.

But it bothers me every day.

[Ding! The system is very useful. The host can exchange fan points for anything they want.]

The system's voice immediately sounded; it had been waiting for a long time, and finally received a response from its host.

It's really too difficult.

"Well said. There are no Cultivation Method, no secret manuals, and no Law Treasure."

"You say your store has a bunch of random songs and scripts, what good are they?"

"I've made more than a hundred billion yuan from this one variety show alone. Do I need you to help me make money and become famous?"

Ding Qi extinguished his cigarette, held the "Law Treasure" in his hand and twirled it around, his words seemingly laced with mockery of the system.

The system remains silent.

Ding Qi is right; the Entertainment System is really useless for a rich second-generation like him.

Ignoring the silent system, Ding Qi pressed a button on the table.

He has other important things to do.

A moment later.

Outside the office, the secretary walked in carrying a large wooden box, carefully placed it on the desk, and then left.

Wait until the secretary leaves, then close the door.

Ding Qi reached out and opened the box, then his gaze fell on the contents inside.

He spent a considerable amount of money researching technological Law Treasure.

The result was quite good.

Researchers innovated on the original electrified Law Treasure stick, turning it into a hammer.

Holding the hammer, Ding Qi began to examine its appearance.

This thing is similar to what's described in cultivation novels, covered in unknown patterns; to put it simply, it's just random scribbles.

As long as it looks intimidating, that's fine.

I don't know exactly how powerful the effects will be.

Holding a hammer, Ding Qi slammed it down on the table in front of him.

Sizzle!

Sizzle!

A crackling sound of electricity rang out instantly, and the screen, which had been playing a live stream video, began to spark.

Then, the solid wood table... cracked!

Wow!

Is that much power?

Ding Qi was sweating profusely; he didn't know whether to keep holding the hammer or put it down.

Fortunately, the hammer handle was well insulated; otherwise, with his early-stage Qi Refining cultivation, it would have been burned to a crisp.

Technological Law Treasure, awesome!

"So it can adjust the current."

After studying the hammer for a while, Ding Qi finally figured out how to use it.

There are three levels in total.

A tingling sensation.

The second gear was excruciating.

Third gear is enough to kill you instantly.

He just used the "feel" setting; whether a person can scream in agony is unknown, but the table and screen are definitely ruined.

Nice one.

Gu Yuan appeared in the office at some point, staring at the Electronic Hammer with a somewhat wistful expression.

This technological Law Treasure is truly excellent in every way.

We still have to keep throwing money into it.

The Entertainment System doesn't yet have a human figure system developed by the research and development center.

"Good things still need to be put to practical use."

Ding Qi touched his head, lost in thought.

It's a brand new Law Treasure, after all; he needs to test it out properly.

But here's the problem.

Where should we test it?

Using instruments for testing?

It's pointless.

Test with ordinary people?

I reckon they'd be dead by the second gear.

Then should we use cultivators for testing?

Ding Qi suddenly thought of someone, and his eyes lit up.

OK!

How could I forget you?

He was, after all, the only cultivator he had encountered so far, and one with a high level of cultivation. If he didn't use him for testing, who would?

That's right.

The person Ding Qi thought of was Lin Hao.

Gu Yuan stood to the side, listening to Ding Qi's inner thoughts, and even his non-existent lips twitched.

This is true love.

No matter where I go, I think of Lin Hao. He really... I'm devastated.

"This also provides an opportunity to further verify the scientific basis of modern cultivation techniques."

Ding Qi nodded to himself, a smile on his face, and gently placed the hammer into the box.

You're already cultivating immortality, and you're still talking about science?

Gu Yuan had nothing to say.

"System, can you manufacture this thing?"

Ding Qi suddenly remembered something and called out to his Entertainment System.

The system remained silent, saying nothing.

Is this thing frozen?

A thought popped into Ding Qi's mind, but it was just a thought, and he quickly dismissed it.

He completely disregarded the system's status.

Anyway, now that we've got the initial cultivation method, the rest is all easy money.

After all, he's a big capitalist; how could he not know whether something is a pie or not?
