      Chapter 80: Major Movements in the Upper City (Part 2) Cover
      by Diswa “Upper City Tech! It’s always Upper City Tech!” Shack roared internally in frustration and fear. He couldn’t comprehend the existence of Mind Control Magic. To him, Lu Yan’s mana manipulation was just a more advanced form of Spirit Energy. But that fear of the unknown only made his reverence grow stronger. Suppressing his pain with great effort, Shack reached up and reset his half-detached jaw. His towering figure bent slightly, and on his face—flattened by the crushing force—he…
    • Chapter 79: The Displaced (Part 1)

      Chapter 79: The Displaced (Part 1) Cover
      by Diswa Even before deciding to sell the Jiulong Serum, Lu Yan had already predicted that, given the chaotic state of the Cyber version’s order, once the serum appeared, it would inevitably attract attention. He had prepared multiple contingency plans for that outcome. In the Cyber version, while ordinary Spirit Energy users had a unique edge in physical body enhancement, their spiritual defenses were extremely weak. Even Spirit Energy users only possessed slightly stronger souls than the average…
    • Chapter 78: Thoughts Before Going Premium!

      Chapter 78: Thoughts Before Going Premium! Cover
      by Diswa This book actually originated from a discussion I had with a friend last year. He first proposed the idea and even started writing it, but ultimately couldn’t continue—partly because the subject matter proved too difficult to handle. Later on, I tried several times to write this book myself, but each attempt only got as far as the beginning before I gave up. I’m sure many of you have noticed—if you dig too deep into this genre, it’s riddled with bugs and loopholes that make it hard to explain…
    • Chapter 77: Jiulong Power Serum

      Chapter 77: Jiulong Power Serum Cover
      by Diswa “Qunbolone, Trenbolone Acetate, Methenolone, Oxandrolone, Rehabilone… These newly enhanced formulas are administered in sets of nine, forming a full treatment course. They can rapidly elevate a normal human body to the physical standard of a long-term fitness enthusiast, allowing the subject to better adapt to Spirit Energy tattoo development. But most importantly, the Jiulong Power Serum has a mild medicinal nature. It won’t cause bodily harm like low-grade Spirit Energy potions. At worst,…
    • Chapter 76: A Mad World

      Chapter 76: A Mad World Cover
      by Diswa Hearing that explanation, Lu Yan sat in silence for a long time in the private suite. Even though he had long stopped expecting anything decent from the Cyber version of the world, this level of madness still exceeded his imagination. Watching the Steroid Warrior being dragged away like cargo, and two more fighters stepping onto the stage, Lu Yan couldn’t help but ask softly,“Is the mortality rate in the arena that high?” “Extremely high,” Quentin replied. “Almost 99% of fighters…
    • Chapter 75: Life-or-Death Arena

      Chapter 75: Life-or-Death Arena Cover
      by Diswa The moment Lu Yan stepped into the marketplace, he felt the long-lost sensation of prosperity. Blinding neon signs lined both sides of the street. The strange and diverse crowd stood in stark contrast to the lifeless and desolate Cavern No. 71. Cavern No. 71 might have been thriving during the pharmaceutical factory's golden days, but now it was just an abandoned, garbage-strewn slum. Among tens of thousands of people, only Quentin had barely brushed the threshold of becoming a Spirit Energy user.…
    • Chapter 74: Cavern No. 33

      Chapter 74: Cavern No. 33 Cover
      by Diswa Lower City, Cavern No. 33. Among the many underground caverns in the Lower City, Cavern No. 33 was a rather unique existence. Most caverns served one simple purpose: sheltering impoverished civilians who couldn’t afford the Tier-3 air tax or sunlight tax. But Cavern No. 33 was different. This particular cavern had once been a corporate fallout shelter from a major company. After being repurposed, it now stood as one of the most prosperous and chaotic zones in the entire Lower City. Human…
    • Chapter 73: I’ll Just Sell Medicine, Then

      Chapter 73: I’ll Just Sell Medicine, Then Cover
      by Diswa “Spirit Energy tax?” Lu Yan narrowed his eyes at Quentin, his expression laced with displeasure as an invisible pressure suddenly spread out. “When I rented this factory, I prepaid six months’ worth of Spirit Energy tax at thirty thousand credits per month. I also put you in charge of the whole matter. “It’s only been a month and a half, and you’re telling me the payment is overdue? Are you toying with me?” Thud! Quentin dropped to his knees with a loud crash, his body…
    • Chapter 72: Peak of Qi Refining

      Chapter 72: Peak of Qi Refining Cover
      by Diswa Ever since settling into the underground factory, Lu Yan had thrown himself entirely into cultivation. In just two days, he broke through to the Sixth Layer of Qi Refining. Five days later, he pushed past the bottleneck and entered the Seventh Layer. In a mere half month, Lu Yan had covered a path that most rogue cultivators couldn’t traverse in their entire lives, reaching the Tenth Layer of Qi Refining—the recognized peak of the realm. Once one reached the Tenth Layer of Qi Refining, the…
    • Chapter 71: Cybernetic Blessed Land

      Chapter 71: Cybernetic Blessed Land Cover
      by Diswa A place where you could improve your cultivation just by standing still—in the Xianxia version, this would be called a Cave Heaven and Blessed Land! Even someone like Ji Xingyao, a Core Disciple of the Azure Phoenix Sect, wouldn’t qualify to enter such a place. Only the patriarchs who ruled their sects could live in such a haven. But here, in the Cyberpunk version, it was just an abandoned underground factory that nobody wanted. If Lu Yan didn’t seize the opportunity now, he’d be a…
