Dao Of The Rail [Cultivation, LitRPG, Sect Builder]

Cultivators don't ride trains. Why would they? Trains don't exist. Not yet. At the fate ceremony, Ethan Oak learns he has no spirit root. In a world ruled by power, that makes him a mortal: a farmer's son born to be trampled beneath the boots of sects and noble houses. Then the System arrives. It doesn't offer him a sword or a secret technique. It offers him a railway. Every station he builds, every ticket he sells, and every cargo he delivers pays out in Qi, the one thing a rootless mortal was never meant to have. Mile by mile, Ethan is laying track down a path of cultivation no one has walked before. But no monopoly goes unchallenged. Push the line into the frontier, and demon beasts rise to tear it up. Connect distant lands, and the sects come calling to buy him, bleed him, or own him outright. To survive, Ethan must grow alongside his railway and build a company whose name brings hope to those it carries and fear to those who stand in its way. All shall be connected. ----------- What to expect:  - Company building - Trains, Trains and more Trains - Planning  - Character-driven story - Multiple POVs — — — —  The release schedule will be: Tue - Thu - Sat, so I'll see you then. — — — —
