I'm basically looking for any story that has a character introduce technology to any world before the first industrial revolution of the world in question. It doesn't necessarily have to be the protagonist (But who am I kidding) and bonus points if cultivation is involved. {Please don't reccomend BL. I can't suspend my disbelief for that stuff so I can't enjoy stories that solely focus on M/M romance.}
Cultivating Change, the MC basically revolutionizes the way people think and one of her disciples/friends does the rest. Don't want to spoil anything, but it's good. Very short though.
I haven't even read BL like that- I feel like I just found a new obscure genre to add to my repertoire you found any other novels, or what's the one that inspired this discussion? I read all genres so was it M/F?
I've tried reading that on multiple occasions. For some reason I really dislike the protagonist. And not in a way that I feel he'll grow up to be likable like in Overgeared. Otaku Engineer in Great Tang Dynasty Read it on an mtl site Also Black Irons Glory, I guess
