The "Dao City" in the starry sky, the "Zuzhou" where cultivation first sprouted, the "Shen Cang Guze," the origin of the vast universe water, and the "Battle Axe Hollow" in the dark forbidden area. There is also the heaven hidden in the macroscopic world and the underworld in the microscopic world. The microscopic world of the earth... Under the microscope, the Buddha's relics, the size of a bean, are like a light red planet, with towering mountains and dry, ancient river channels densely covered, desolate and vast, and magnificent. The researchers observed this microscopic world in amazement. Soon after, there was a shocking discovery. An ancient and strange-looking bronze ship was anchored in the dry ocean of this light red planet. It was rusty, and the masts and canvas were clearly visible. I don't know how many years it has been stranded there. When the magnification was increased, I saw a lot of corpses on the ship, including white bones of humans wearing armor, phoenix corpses and python skeletons, and a large area of ​​tomb sea steles on the deck. It is only 460 nanometers long, but it is so magnificent and mysterious.

In a world where Rifts tear through reality and Hunters are the only line of defense, Kai Draven was a joke — the "Disposable E-Rank" who barely survived the crumbs of a dungeon raid. But when a desperate crawl through a "Glitch Dungeon" goes wrong, Kai doesn’t die. Instead, he wakes up with a cold, mechanical voice echoing in his skull. [SYSTEM INITIALIZED: The Abyss is Hungry.] [NEW QUEST: Devour or be Devoured.]

###This is a slow pacing novel! [CONTENT WARNING: This work is intended for an adult audience (18+). Contains explicit sexual content, visceral violence and dark psychological dynamics.] MAIN TAGS: #DualCultivation #Smut #Yandere #Harem #OverpoweredProtagonist #Violence #ObsessiveRomance #WorldBuilding SYNOPSIS: The universe is not a cradle for enlightenment; it is a cosmic slaughterhouse. Immortality is no divine gift, but a ruthless theft against the laws of entropy. In an ecosystem where ancient sects operate as meat grinders and hypocritical heroes rule atop mountains of bones, Zhì Yuǎn is an anomaly. He does not cultivate the Dao to harmonize with the world—he cultivates to devour it. Carrying an insatiable Singularity within his chest, his mere existence warps the natural balance, drawing the scrutiny and fury of the heavens. To feed this inner abyss and force his ascension through the Three Thousand Worlds, he does not walk alone. By his side are his wives—cultivation partners and accomplices in his boundless ambition. They are not the fragile trophies so typical of this world, but the very foundation of his power, as pragmatic and dangerous as the man they follow. Together, they are not heroes seeking justice. There is no room for false morals, mercy toward enemies, or wasting time on the vanity of arrogant young masters. Transcendence demands resources, and they will take them all. The heavens may try to crush the anomaly, but Zhì Yuǎn sees only one thing in the Tribulations: more fuel for his ascension.

Death, it seemed, had not finished with him yet. Once, he had been ordinary. A fleeting life, brief and forgettable, swallowed by the silence that waits for everyone in the end. Then came magic. A second life shaped by whispered spells, candlelit libraries, and war hidden beneath the surface of the world. It ended in green light and agony, struck down by the curse of a Dark Lord whose name still lingered like poison in memory. He should have remained dead. Instead, he opened his eyes in New York City. Not his New York. A harsher one. A world balanced on the edge of catastrophe, where gods wore the faces of men, where monsters descended from the stars, and where humanity survived only by the fragile illusion that someone stronger would always arrive in time. The Marvel Universe did not care about ordinary people. And despite everything, he was still only a wizard. No wand. No allies. No place in a story already crowded with legends. Only knowledge of what was coming. Alien invasions. Hidden empires. Machines dreaming of extinction. And, somewhere in the distant dark, a titan waiting patiently to erase half the universe with the snap of his fingers. He did not ask for another life. But if fate insisted on giving him one more chance, then perhaps this time he would learn how to survive it. ------------------------------ Hey guys, I'm Aurelius Gularis, your author, and welcome to Path of Arkana (or How to Survive and Maybe Craft Hogwarts in Another World) that you can find on Wattpad or Royal Road very soon.

Neva and Rhett, two young souls find their heartstrings woven in love. But just as passion and peace begin to bloom, fate intervenes. Bleak, haunting circumstances scatter blades across their romance, threatening to tear them apart. Ishmael, a man with a heart of thorns, yearns to mend the wound of losing Neva. And in the end, rays of love and joy filter through the clouds of horror that darken his world, as Neva appears before him once more. Twisted fate entangles them all, revealing the Game of Sphere, as misery scorches their souls. A concealed life beyond turns its pages, one after another, gathering a tale where faith and love and grace wins against the doubt and hatred and sin. --- The girl who once vowed to be his forever Now forbids him to ever appear. She refuses to recognize him, Disregarding all he ever was. He vows to protect her. Yet he is the terrifying truth she prays is a lie. He trips her, rips her apart— He's the living tragedy looming over her life. He once was her Elayne, now her hiraeth. He is the villain, pretending to be the hero.

"Now you see?" she shouted in a tone that was somewhere between annoyance and disappointment. "You can’t outsmart Scrients! They’re the most intelligent beings across the two realms!" "You’re right," I muttered, averting my gaze with a solemn sigh. "I made a mistake. I was arrogant to think a mere human like me could fool them." —BOOM!! "...Wh-What was that?" "Hmm? I’m not sure. Maybe you should go and ask the most intelligent beings across the two realms. Oh wait! You can’t. I killed them all." ••• My name is Samael Kaizer Theosbane. On the last day of high school, I got into a fight with a kid I used to bully. It was a stupid and pointless scuffle. And in the middle of it, I tripped and smacked my head on a rock. That’s when the memories came flooding in… Memories of a different life. Memories of another world. Suddenly, everything made a twisted kind of sense. I realized two things. First: I was inside a game I used to play in my past life. Second: I was a villain. A villain! Not the cool, mysterious, tragic kind either! No, I was the worst kind of cliché — a spoiled, insufferable, and arrogant young master. The sort you'd find in those poorly written fantasy stories. You know the type! The one everyone hates. The one the hero would beat into the ground to show everyone just how strong and righteous he is. Yeah. I was that guy! My fate was to be a stepping stone for the main characters, be manipulated by a Demon Prince, and die a dog's death. And the hero? The hero was the same kid I’d been bullying all this time. The one I just got into a fight with. He was supposed to be the savior of this damned world. A world teetering on the edge of destruction, beset by wars, calamities, and a grim future that only I knew. And waiting at the end of it all was the final antagonist. The unbeatable nightmare. …The Spirit King. But could I even make it to the end? Could I really survive in a game where defeat was the only certainty? A game that had now become my reality? “Ah, fuck it.” I had no idea if I could. But I sure as hell was going to try. Extorting extras, manipulating main characters, altering the story to my advantage, stealing the hero’s cheat items, killing villains long before they could become threats — nothing was beneath me. Would the main characters be affected by my actions? Excellent! Would the story change? Even better! All I cared about was me. My survival. My life. My choices. “I’ll live this life with no regrets.” ...But as I soon discovered, fate wasn't so easily changed. And the price of rewriting your destiny was steep. ========== Discord Server: https://discord.gg/VjFQtDUaTR

READER DISCRETION IS STRONGLY ADVISED. ******************************************* “Tell me what you need me to do.” Where the shamelessness or boldness came from, I had no idea but I didn’t care anymore.  Without breaking eye contact for even a second, Allen replied in a disgustingly devilish voice. “I need you to take my cock in your mouth and let me pound your throat until I fill your mouth with my seed. Do you think you can handle that? Mmm?” My hands were still on his cock and instead of backing out, I slowly started stroking him.  “Fuckkkk! That feels so good baby,” he murmured softly. “Now you know my answer.” ******************************************* Ezra wakes up in a strange world with pointy-eared people, glowing castles, and a family he doesn’t recognize. Before he can figure out where he is, everyone keeps calling him “young master” and insisting he’s a harmless beta. But at a royal event, his body betrays him and he suddenly “awakens,” releasing pheromones he can’t smell and can’t control. The entire hall of powerful Alphas turns toward him like wolves scenting blood. The four royal brothers, dangerous, famous, and stupidly attractive, claim he’s an omega who belongs to them. Ezra has no idea what an omega even is. Then a weird system appears. [SYSTEM ERROR: Omega awakening detected. First task: avoid every Alpha in this room.] While trying to figure out what happened to him, Ezra learns the truth: the original body he now lives in was murdered, and the man who killed him is still out there. Worse, he’s tied to the royal family. Forced into a world where omegas are treated like property, Ezra must survive: Four Alpha brothers who want him both romantically and sexually and would do anything to have him in their bed every night. A system that only appears when he’s seconds from disaster. A disgustingly handsome and obsessive killer watching him from the shadows. And his growing deep feelings for one particular brother. He only has three days before the brothers drag him into the royal house for good. And the worst part? His body reacts to them… way too easily.

(Currently being revised so the story may be incoherent) "Knowledge, There you are! We need to do this quickly before the other gods notice." Valor says as he motions for her to approach. "I'm surprised you agreed to help with this." Gluttony adds with a cruel smile. "I never would have thought the God of Knowledge would be the one to give us aid." Knowledge mearly nods at his words. "Now, this is it! That crazy bat from the far continent has made some crazy monsters before but this one is the cream of the crop. Fully capable of self-evolution and self-replication. It can breed a whole army of different monsters by gathering the essence of other lifeforms!" Valor says as he points to a large egg on the ground. She nods again. "You know, I thought you'd be as excited as I am with this? Endless war and power; we'll have full control of the system once this thing begins its rampage." Knowledge raises her hands in the air and shakes them unenthusiastically. "As sarcastic as ever I see. Well, whatever. Place your hand hand here and help us with the seal." She does as she is told and a huge beam of light descends upon the egg; but her attention is elsewhere. Using the ceremony as a distraction, Knowledge brings lost souls from other worlds and implants them in unsuspecting inhabitants. She can see it. Tiny seeds of change have been sewn.

The world is at war… and power is everything. When hidden humans with abilities finally step forward, the balance begins to shift. Then, peace came...but Erin, she didn't want peace. To everyone else, she’s perfect. Beautiful. Untouchable. Living a life others envy, with powers that placed her at the top. But the truth? She’s already lost everything and was too weak to get what she truly wanted. Until she got her hands on something that wasn’t meant for her, that changed everything. [System Activated] “It is time to feed!” “You must drink human blood within 24 hours” “Your HP will continue to decrease…” Erin had become something she was never meant to become a vampire, but just maybe she could use this to get everything she truly wanted. **** What if instead of Quinn Talen being the main protagonist, Erin also shared that role. What if Peter became a magic subclass and Layla became an undead? What if Fex was able to join the military school sooner, but Vorden was stuck on his family's island? What if Logan stayed the same despite everyone else swapping roles? A new universe a new telling of the story causing a series of events to get changed, and for character arcs to go into different directions. To think that it all started because Quinn tried to make an investment.

Zhang Yue was a lost cause. The textbook good-for-nothing young miss, the black sheep of a powerful family. A broke yet proud heiress who refused to ride on her family name. She wanted to carve her own path. Instead, she lost everything - her career, her dreams… even her family. But she wasn’t the kind to give up. She worked hard. She prayed harder. “Just give me one chance to go back and fix everything,” she begged the heavens. Well… the heavens listened. Sort of. Thanks to a tiny misunderstanding with her family deity, Zhang Yue finds herself hurled across timelines, right into the arms of a sword-wielding stranger, in an era ruled by magic and mayhem. No powers. No cheat codes. No chosen-one prophecy. Just a 21st-century woman stuck in a cultivation world where everyone else can blow up mountains. You’d think she’d embrace her fate, awaken her inner mage, and rise to glory. Wrong girl. Zhang Yue has one goal: Go back. Even if the deity she prayed to doesn’t seem to exist anymore. Even if the only person who wants to help her… might just be the man who was destined to betray her.

“This is the end… I’m going to die.” That should have been my last thought when everyone abandoned me during a dungeon break, until Ezekiel appeared. With a single strike of his scythe, he saved my life. To me, he was a savior. To the rest of the world, he was a monster a cold, ruthless “brutal ranker” feared by all. No matter how much I tried to tell the truth, no one believed me. Years later, I saw him again… at his funeral, betrayed and murdered by his own allies. But when I’m granted a single wish, time rewinds to the day of his death, and I awaken with the power to change everything. This time, I won’t just save him, I’ll destroy the so-called heroes who ruined him. They called him a monster… now I’ll show them what a real one looks like. A devil wearing an innocent face, loved by the masses and hailed as an idol and a saint.

Elric Voss is sixteen years old, two ranks above useless, and he wakes up one hour before everyone around him dies. The Caelith Mourne expedition has camped at the base of a sky-fallen pyramid ten thousand years old, and something sealed inside it has finally been disturbed. When the ground splits and the demons come, the thirty-one members of the expedition are dead inside of ten minutes. Elric wakes up again. Same tent, same wind, same pyramid filling the sky. One hour on the clock. He dies to the first demon in seconds. Then again. Then again... Magus Infinite is the story of a young acolyte who has nothing, no great power, no secret destiny, no teacher who believes in him, grinding the same hour of carnage until nothing in it can kill him anymore. Every death teaches him something. Every reset sharpens him. The spell that begins as a candle-flicker becomes a bolt that cracks the sky. The boy who could not survive two seconds against a single demon slowly becomes the only thing standing between the pyramid and the world outside it. The action never stops. Neither does Elric. This is not a story about a chosen hero. It is a story about what repetition does to a person. Join the discord. https://discord.gg/rrBjm4dvy

This man began as a completely unremarkable defensive midfielder. Then, by chance, he learned a bit about organizing play... then a bit about carrying the ball forward... and then free kicks too. And just like that, the football world got lively. Kaká and Cristiano Ronaldo loved playing with him—handsome, eloquent, and most importantly, the guy who covered their backs so they could focus on attacking up front. Messi had a love-hate relationship with him. Every time he played against Barcelona, he got fired up—and somehow always dragged Messi into playing brotherly football. All number 8s loved playing alongside him—his coverage was everywhere, his pressure resistance was second to none. He was the ultimate shield in front of center-backs, the perfect partner to midfielders, and the strongest wall behind the forwards. Xabi Alonso was his mentor, Mourinho his boss, and Pogba? Just his junior. Whenever a reporter asked him how he got so good, he'd always reply: “Train like hell. Give it everything you’ve got!” Thank you for the support, friends.

[WARNING: This book contains adult content.] Kai was the best underground fighter alive. Then he slipped on a wet floor and died. Classic.

He was never supposed to become her husband. Yuuta Kounari was nothing more than an ordinary culinary student living a quiet life on Earth until a mysterious Dragon Queen appeared before him and declared that he would become her husband. There was only one problem. She had no intention of accepting him. To Erza Veyla Dragomir, the White Dragon Empress of Atlantis, Yuuta was merely an accident she wished had never happened. Cold, ruthless, and feared by gods and dragons alike, she would rather wage war against the world than bow before fate. Yet fate had already chosen.

A hidden past, a forgotten civilization, and a power buried deep within his soul begin pulling him toward a truth that could change both Earth and Nova forever. To protect the family he cherishes, uncover the mystery of his origin, and stand beside the woman who refuses to acknowledge him, Yuuta must grow stronger even if that means walking through the horrors of the Soul Realm itself.

The moment Uchiha Seimei opened his eyes, nothing felt right. The ceiling above was unfamiliar, the scent of the air foreign, and his mind… fragmented. His heart pounded in his chest, racing with questions. "Where am I?" In an instant, a flood of memories—strange and disconnected—crashed into him. Faces, names, fragments of battles he had never fought, and… ninja? Konoha? Uchiha? He sat up abruptly, clutching his head as the truth sank in. He wasn’t in his own world anymore. He had been reborn as Uchiha Seimei, a ten-year-old boy in a world where death and war loomed like shadows. A world of shinobi, bloodlines, and monstrous powers. A world on the brink of chaos—the Third Great Ninja War. His heart tightened, not just from the reality of this dangerous new life, but because the body he now inhabited had just lost its parents in the war. And if that wasn’t bad enough, he wasn’t some legendary prodigy. No famed Sharingan awakening. No god-like power. Just an ordinary, ten-year-old Uchiha… or so it seemed. Until the system appeared. In a flash, a translucent blue screen hovered before his eyes, and with it, hope sparked in his chest. plz support me if you can. patreon.com/Mano99 all the fanfic is 30 chapter a had and you will get 1 chapter everyday.

« MATURE CONTENT » One learns the hard way how wrong this line actually is: 'Brains over brawn.' It all started when Viktor Redwood slaughtered ten thousand soldiers, outwitted the legendary Emperor Leo and his five mythical-class heroines, and put a bullet through his head in front of those heroines—all achieved using sheer intelligence. But even with all that, he lost everything, got too lazy to even care about anything, and was cornered by absolute strength—all while his corrupted incubus race slowly awakened within him, warping his body with demonic features he could barely hide—leading him to decide to at least kill those heroines alongside himself in a boom. Only for him to regress back into his fat, powerless, and cursed body, starting again. This time, with the knowledge that his dormant bloodline will manifest again, transforming him piece by piece. The bad thing about all this? Now he's been thrown back to his worst day—the trial where his fiancée Elena—the one who put a blade to his heart just a moment ago—framed him. But even that didn't stop him from becoming the villain who made heroes bleed and heroines breed. Unlike last time, when he had thwarted her plans, this time he chose to exile himself to prepare an army of his children and wives. Viktor's got the 100x Ability Rebate System: enter powerful women, steal their abilities, multiply them by 100, and return them in bundles when they become mothers with a ratio of 100% to wives and 50% to children. And with a corrupted bloodline that changes his human self to Incubus as he use system—he will get to have a new identity as Householder Incubus. However, this time, the issue is a small twist—where, even with such an overpowered skill, he has been thrown into a wasteland with his loyal mid-thirties nanny, Helena. Will a weak baron with a cursed bloodline slowly transforming his body be able to create his own army and become the Emperor? « What to Expect: => Lots of Lemons (Babies aren't going to pop from the sky, right?) => Fatherhood Journey (A young man to a father of an army of babies, funny x100) => Transformation from Lust to Responsibilities (Responsible Lust, TADA!) => Kingdom Building + Cute, smart children running the kingdom while parents are on vacation.

It all started with a dirty little secret. Freshly arrived on the Douluo Continent, I made the "mistake" of overhearing the truth: the famous Grandmaster, Yu Xiaogang, is no genius—he is a plagiarizing fraud. To silence me, he tried to kill me. Big mistake. On the brink of death, my Martial Soul, the Scarecrow, awakened its true demonic form, dragging me back from hell with a second Martial Soul in hand. Now, I am no longer prey; I am the puppeteer of souls. Yu Xiaogang? I will make the world see your hypocrisy as I twist you into the most despised Evil Soul Master in history. Tang San? Your precious disciple will fall with you, transformed into public enemy number one. As the Demon Holy Son of the Spirit Hall, I will rewrite fate. Death is too merciful a gift for you two... prepare for a fate worse than hell. Thank you for the support, friends. If you want to read more chapters in advance, go to my Patreon.
