I Accidentally Upgraded the World into Cultivation World
Lin Hao, a broke and stressed college student, awakens a mysterious "Infinite Upgrade System." He gains "Upgrade Points" (UP) daily, which he can use to upgrade anything; a simple knife becomes a spiritual artifact, his own body's talent, and even his cultivation level.
But the system's most powerful feature is also its most demanding: he can upgrade the entire planet Earth.
His "newbie gift pack" is a free upgrade, transforming Earth from a mundane "Mortal Plane" into a "Lower Spiritual Plane." This awakens "Reiki" (spiritual energy) across the globe, unlocking humanity's dormant Spiritual Roots and setting a new cultivation limit: the Houtian Realm (Level 9).
Lin Hao discovers the system's core secret: if he invests points into upgrading the world's spiritual density, his daily point gain doubles. Furthermore, each major Planar Ascension he triggers acts as a "Global Purification," upgrading the innate spiritual roots, cultivation speed, and comprehension of all humanity. To break past the world's limits, he must first upgrade the entire planet, dragging all of humanity with him, willingly or not, into an age of cultivation, monsters, and shared ascension, all while unknowingly preparing to confront a cosmic truth that threatens all of existence.
