    Hi, I am looking for a futuristic kinda novel where story focuses more on techs rather than cultivation and shit.

    So what's the best futuristic novel you have ever read?

    both The Mech Touch and Star Rank Hunter are pretty good, the former focusing more on the tech side of things.

    Superstars of Tomorrow, which focuses on advanced music trends or something but also has cool space travel and science along the way

    The one from the author of Sevens and otomegame is tough for mobs. CN protagonist is too annoying. KR protagonist, is there one in futuristic setting? I thought that one is a VRMMO with space setting. so the only one I can recommend is JP.

    Come to think of it, Forty Millennium of Cultivation might be worth a look if you have not read it before. It's a parody of cultivation after 40 millennium, instead of all the xianxia stuff, it's an extension of "what might happen when cultivation becomes high tech". Bit jingoistic, the Chinese still have not mastered the "soft touch" of writing, you'll just have to endure the rah-rah parts but some parts of it can be quite funny.

    "Break through in a cultivation cave? You want to give birth in the wilds too?" :ROFLMAO:

    I'm wondering if there's a novel where MC lives in modern times but gets characteristic knowledge/tech like living in the 2010s/2020s but learns somehow to build a car thats far more advanced than or own or food that's more delicious or healthier than whats currently available.
