Her body yields, her pride shatters, and something awakens deep in his mana core: Lust, the missing primal emotion. In the Azure Continent, every youth at age 18 faces the sacred Mana Stone Ritual. One card, two cards, ten cards—fifteen for true monsters. The number decides your fate: genius, trash, or something in between. Lin Feng, the unacknowledged bastard son of the Lin Family Head—born from his mother’s forbidden affair—has endured eighteen years of mockery, beatings, and cold silence from his own clan. Everyone expects him to manifest garbage. No one expects anything from the “whore’s son.” From ridiculed bastard to the sovereign who devours emotions and ascends chaos itself—this is Lin Feng’s rise. He will steal cards, conquer harems, and fuse the primordial forces through bodies and souls. The heavens will tremble. The clan that mocked him will kneel. And the woman who once looked down on him will beg for more. #R18 #Mature #Smut #Harem #MILF #Taboo #Netori #DualCultivation #Fantasy #Cultivation #CardSystem #OverpoweredMC #FaceSlapping

Don't be fooled by the title. I don't even have an iota of ego. Matter of fact, I'm the most humble man you'll ever meet! Some say I’m also the smartest man you’ll ever meet. I wouldn’t say that myself, of course. That would be arrogant. I merely acknowledge the objective truth. My name is Ziyang, and I'm here to tell you a story. You see that smug bitch holding a dagger to my throat? Well, it had been my humble ambition to take that egotistical, drowning in his own self-importance, arrogant piece of a shitfucker down. Atleast, that's what my original hope was anyway, because apparently the universe has a way of telling you to sit the fuck down when you try jumping too high. Boy, can I not wait to tell you about the clusterfuck I put myself into. So tighten your bootstraps, clutch your snacks, and maybe sign a waiver. What follows is an outrageously adventurous, mildly disastrous, and aggressively entertaining journey.

Fifty thousand years later, Chu Feng awakens a soul that should not exist. A soul cracked, broken, and useless. Yet beneath its silence, something stirs. A forgotten sword spirit whispers his name. A divine mantra reshapes his destiny. And when his blood touches the old runes, the heavens remember the song they once feared.

In the monster-plagued Heian era, Yorimitsu was born to be a sacrifice. Marked by a spiral omen and a face split between youth and age, Minamoto no Yorimitsu was a "bad omen" sold into slavery by his own blood. For years, he was the plaything of the sadistic Minakaze clan, eventually thrown to the deep mountains as expendable fodder for the yōkai. But he didn't die. Saved by a legendary mountain witch, Yorimitsu spent years forging his body and mastering a terrifying, dormant sorcery. Yet, just as he neared the peak of his power, his sanctuary became a slaughterhouse. His master was consumed by a demonic rot, and in a final, tragic confrontation, Yorimitsu was forced to trade his life to save her soul. Now, Yorimitsu has opened his eyes to find himself ten years old again—bound in chains and back in the carriage that sold him to hell. He has the memories of a grandmaster. He has the hunger of a demon. And this time, he won’t just survive the yōkai or the clans that betrayed him; he will hunt them until the world is paved with their bones.

Abandoned by the world, yet chosen by destiny — Lin Xuan was born weak in a realm where strength defined everything. Mocked by society and left behind by his own father, his fate seemed sealed as the lowest existence among cultivators. But no one knew that within his blood slept the sealed power of an Ancient God — a forbidden force erased from history and feared by the heavens. Through mysterious dreams that blurred reality and illusion, Lin Xuan slowly awakens his hidden potential. As sect wars erupt, mythical beasts roam the lands, and ancient secrets resurface, he steps onto a dangerous path from weakness to supremacy. Betrayal, love, rivalry, and countless enemies stand in his way, each determined to crush him before he ascends. Yet with every trial, his power grows closer to the divine. From a mocked child to a being capable of shaking heaven and earth, Lin Xuan’s rise will rewrite the laws of cultivation itself.

Hong Tianqi was born with nothing remarkable about him. Orphaned young, raised on the edges of a forgotten village, he scraped by on herb runs and borrowed knowledge until the day he first circulated qi and something behind his eyes opened that had no business being there. He tested as Mortal-grade at thirteen. No sect fought over him. That was fine. He had already seen enough with those eyes to know exactly which sect he wanted, and it was not the powerful ones. Qingmu Sect was a joke. Three elders past their prime, disciples on the wrong cultivation paths, formations that had been misaligned for decades, and a reputation so bad that even the nearby villages stopped sending their children. It was perfect. Nobody watches the bottom of the barrel. Nobody asks questions about slow quiet progress. And nobody notices when things start getting better in ways they cannot quite explain. Hong Tianqi intends to keep it that way.

NOTE: MASTER-DISCIPLE RELATIONSHIP * CULTIVATION *XIANXIA *ACTION *R18 Thousands of years ago, the feared Demon Lord, Mo Xuan, was nearly destroyed when the immortals united to eliminate him in a battle that shook the heavens and earth. Gravely wounded, he escaped into the mortal realm, disappearing without a trace. Since then, a dangerous rumor has spread across the cultivation world—Mo Xuan can only regain his lost power by finding his true love. Once that bond is formed, his strength would surpass even what it once was, powerful enough to challenge the three realms. Determined to prevent his return, the immortal sects secretly search the mortal world, hoping to destroy him before that destined bond is formed. But finding him proves nearly impossible, for Mo Xuan possesses a terrifying ability—he is a shapeshifter who can take any form and become anyone. Amid this hidden hunt, an unlikely figure begins to rise. Yuan Qing, a young man born with a weak spiritual core, had spent his life mocked as the cultivation world’s greatest failure. Everything changes when he becomes the disciple of a mysterious and notoriously lazy master known as Shen Liang, a man with no known past and little interest in reputation or power. Yet under Shen Liang’s guidance, Yuan Qing begins to grow stronger at an astonishing rate, defeating talented cultivators and shocking powerful sects as he steadily walks the path toward immortality. As Yuan Qing’s fame spreads, so do the rumors. No one knows where Shen Liang came from. No one understands how such an ordinary man could raise such an extraordinary disciple. And some begin to suspect a far more terrifying possibility— That the Demon Lord Mo Xuan may already be hiding among them…

Level 1. That was Ren Akuro’s place in the Kizuna Hierarchy. In Shinkai City, that meant one thing. He was nothing. No money. No power. No future. Until a Demon King offered him a contract. Now Ren can see the sins hidden inside people. Corruption. Greed. Murder. And the system gives him one simple command. Harvest the wicked. Each soul he harvests grants him wealth, power, and a higher rank in the world that once crushed him. But power always comes with a price. Because every soul he collects strengthens the seal of something far more dangerous. The Demon King. And Ren Akuro may already be too deep to escape.

Zhi Wan is an orphan living under someone else's roof, always cautious and meticulous, until she fell into the water one day and gained the ability to share dreams with others. She thought she would never meet the man from her dreams in her entire life, so in the dreams, she did all sorts of outrageous things. Until one day, she saw the Jade Pendant at his waist and finally realized that the man who did all those outrageous things with her in the dreams was none other than this powerful official, known for being aloof from women, cold, and ascetic.

And what am I like in your dreams?" Zhi Wan: "..." "Be good. The things we didn't finish in the dream, let's continue them now!" the man coaxed in a hoarse voice. (1v1, Double Clean)
