Seeds of Ascension

In the cultivation world, spiritual roots determine destiny. Wei Jin’s three-colored, low-grade roots offer a mere fifty percent chance of ever reaching Foundation Establishment—odds that would crush most aspiring cultivators before they begin. But Jin’s family has already sacrificed everything for this chance. At six years old, Wei Jin arrives at the Dark Rose Sect with nothing but patched robes, a bundle of turnips for tribute, and the weight of his entire family’s hopes pressing down on his small shoulders. His father sold the farm. His brother worked three years in the copper mines. His mother’s tears still stain the letter tucked against his heart. Assigned to the agricultural division—the lowest rung of sect hierarchy—Jin is given one hectare of neglected spirit rice and a cultivation technique that should take him decades to master. He is clumsy, naive, and utterly unprepared for the cutthroat world of cultivation politics. But Jin possesses something that no one else can see: a mysterious ability that shows him exactly how to optimize his cultivation, pushing his efficiency far beyond what his spiritual roots should allow. As seasons turn to years, Jin transforms from a stumbling child into a formidable cultivator. He learns that power comes in many forms—from the old farmer whose pranks hide genuine wisdom, from the gossip-loving girl who becomes his closest ally, from the silent giants who teach him that realm isn’t everything. He survives corrupt overseers, navigates deadly sect politics, and discovers that sometimes the most effective weapon is patience. When tragedy strikes his distant family, Jin must leave the safety of the sect to confront enemies who threaten everything he loves. The quiet farmer who preferred to work in shadows must become something more—a protector, an avenger, a cultivator willing to do whatever it takes to shield those who depend on him. But as Jin approaches the peak of Qi Gathering, he realizes that his greatest challenges still lie ahead. Foundation Establishment beckons—a transformation that will change everything he understands about cultivation. And in the world of immortals, those who rise too quickly often find themselves targets of those who rose before them. The Burdened Heart is the first book in an epic cultivation series following one young man’s journey from forgotten outer disciple to legendary cultivator. It is a story about family sacrifice, quiet determination, and the discovery that true strength often grows in the most unexpected soil

System Tearstone : Claim The Violet Thorne [BL]

Three realms burn. Six sins awaken. An ancient curse lurks beneath the ruins, hungry for souls—and one boy stands at its center. He once had a name—Kirihito Orohana—a lonely child broken by fate. Reborn as Wèi Yīlíng, he becomes a storm cloaked in beauty: a soul twisted by blood, devotion, and a mission that could destroy him… or the world. Five fates bind him. The half he cannot forget. The warmth that steadies him. The darkness that sees him whole. And a destiny that refuses to release him. In a world where heroes bleed silently and love itself is a curse, every choice draws blood, and every fleeting warmth demands a price. Will he obey the mission carved into his soul… or risk everything for a love that may last only thirty breaths? Dive into a tale of rebirth, obsession, divine decay, and forbidden bonds, where desire burns slow, longing scars deep, and every step toward light sharpens the night. Welcome to System Tearstone— where the soft beginning is a lie, and the descent is beautiful. Genres & Themes ◆ Slow-burn devotion ◆ Forbidden soul-bond ◆ Morally gray lovers ◆ Fallen god ◆ Emotional curse system & slow torture ◆ Tragic localities ◆ Cursed intimacy ◆ Sect betrayal ◆ Heavy fate themes ◆ Reincarnation ◆ Dark cultivation Author’s Note : The beginning may feel soft—almost deceptively light.

Welcome to the Rollercoaster of System Tearstone. If you choose to read it, you become one of my lonely tearstones— a crystal I keep close whenever I cry… or smile through tears. So brace yourself. This isn’t a computer game. It’s an emotionally cursed one. ♡♡

Tears Of The Smiling Exorcist: Innocence & Identity [BL]

Life needs only two things to go on: an obsession strong enough to live for, and a reason that refuses to stay buried. Lingxiao, the smiling exorcist, walks through the cultivation world like a wandering soul—saving common people from curses, demons, and ghosts, while carrying a truth darker than any spirit he has ever fought. He witnessed his father die by his own hands. He didn’t mean to. Yet the world believes he did. Lingxiao doesn’t know how to cry. He doesn’t know how to be angry. He only smiles. A smile that brightens or darkens the sky itself— to some, a curse; to others, an enchanting mystery. He never stays in one place. Every village is a temporary home. Until one cursed town begs him to return. His hometown. The place where everything began… and where something still waits for him. And there, he meets him— the red-robed ghost, the groom spirit, who first marks Lingxiao as prey… and then falls in love with him. This ghost becomes the first to teach him emotions— how to cry without shame, how to be angry without fear, how to feel loved even by something that has no heartbeat. But love with a ghost is still a haunting. A devotion that can neither live nor die. And the truth that awaits them in this cursed town is only the end of one journey— the moment where the threads of fate break open into the true beginning of Lingxiao’s existence. A beginning carved before breath was ever borrowed… beyond flesh, beyond fate— in a realm where souls are not born, but rewritten, and destinies bleed upon stone. There, in the world called System Tearstone, the truth of his existence waits… older than life, and hungrier than death. The tears he finally learns to shed become the first raindrops of a much deeper origin. Genres & Themes: ◆ Slow-burn devotion ◆ Forbidden soul-bond ◆ Morally gray lovers ◆ Ghost × Exorcist romance ◆ Tragic localities ◆ Cursed intimacy ◆ Sect betrayal ◆ Heavy fate themes ◆ Reincarnation ◆ Dark cultivation
