As the author, I’m very happy too—I wish I could keep my phone in my pants all day.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The initial inspiration for this book came from cyberpunk, but I always felt a sense of disconnect with Western cyberpunk content. What I wanted to write was Xianxia cyberpunk, like the difference between Cthulhu and Chinese-style Cthulhu.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Some old readers may know that I have attempted something similar since my book three books ago, “The Calamity of Tomorrow.” Back then, my understanding of cyberpunk was very superficial—just cool equipment, prosthetics available to everyone, and mass-produced combat power.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that time, the cyber elements were merely trendy accessories in my book, just a decoration.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the book after that, “The Tome of Bygone Days,” I tried adding some content about borrowing and repaying debts within the cultivation system, attempting to build a more cybernetic cycle of interests. That was when I truly had a bit of a Xianxia cyberpunk atmosphere. But still, my skill was insufficient and my understanding was inadequate—I couldn’t capture the Xianxia cyberpunk flavor I wanted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then came the previous book, “I Said I Would Turn Back Time,” where I directly wrote the celestial realm as a cyberpunk celestial realm. Unfortunately, due to inconsistent style, my own health issues, and the protagonist being too powerful, I couldn’t properly write about this celestial realm, so it ended hastily.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now, after several years of accumulation, I have a deeper understanding of the Xianxia cyberpunk flavor I want. I feel that I can finally write a novel that is unique and interesting.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As more and more readers joined, this book gradually shifted from my initial personal interest to a growing sense of responsibility. Every day, reading your comments makes me feel that I cannot let down the deep affection of so many readers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But this book is really hard to write because the worldview and the characters’ thoughts are quite special. I always have to give my brain a fresh perspective to continue. Sometimes, as I write… I unconsciously slip into too-normal thinking and make the plot too normal, so I have to delete and rewrite—just now, I deleted two chapters.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Also, the worldview constantly needs to be extrapolated, so I can never write fast… LOL.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Finally, I want to say: Dear readers, you have each shown your extraordinary talents in the chapter comments. Your brilliance is truly beyond compare, leaving me in awe.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I feel your overwhelming talent and enthusiasm. To give back to this enthusiasm, I have decided to postpone the pay-to-read launch (originally scheduled for December 1st) and offer more free chapters as a bonus. I want to improve so badly~(＾◇^)\u002F\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I hope you will continue to support and follow this book. Your follow-through and chapter comments are the driving force for this book’s progress! Please also recommend it to your friends and bring them along to Kunxu for a visit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Talented men and women, let me see your limits!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Please follow and read! Follow and read! Follow and read!\u003C\u002Fp>",527,"2026-05-29T04:54:22.303Z","2026-06-01T04:29:11.989Z",1,"deepseek-v4-flash","dae251a390aaed4210befe90eeaba629e146dfa4d1405d03c93bcbec61775049","no-money-what-cultivation-chapter-46","no-money-what-cultivation-chapter-44",711,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fno-money-what-cultivation-cover.jpg"]
