Treasures of Heaven and Earth

Why is it, that no matter how many world shattering heroes rise and fall, no matter how many times a realm is said to be depleted of resources, a hero rises again - burning all the resources they find as they go? Another inheritance is always found, another spirit herb, magical artefact... and no one asks why they never seem to run out... ...what keeps creating all these fortunate encounters? Why? And what happens if it stops? --- Warning, this book is a slow burner - rather than a fast paced DBZ style novel --- AUTHORS UPDATE: --- First 30 (one-sixth of) existing chapters have now been edited and reuploaded. Very little has been changed plot or event wise. It's been grammar, clarity, pacing/smoothness, period accuracy, and detail/sense layering. --- Apologies to my Readers My life has gone completely insane since 2019. I am prepared to start again, but I'm going to be slowly posting revised and clean chapters first, taking down old chapters as the new edits completely replace them. Unfortunately, Webnovel doesn't alert to updates to old content. I'm managing a couple of chapters a week worth of editing. By the way, if anyone thinks AI can do the work of writing for you, I say that it's an invaluable editing tool and soundingboard - but I find it still takes three to four hours of rewriting and discussing with the AI to update each chapter to a state I'm happy with. The payoff is that the AI keeping track of the novel events, characters, plots and threads as I go; trying to keep all that straight and losing focus is a big part of what blocked me last time, so hopefully, once I get to new content things will flow smoothly. --- This work was written and revised by the author with the assistance of a trained AI editor. All final choices, worldbuilding, and character voices were shaped by the author’s intent and hand.

The legend of Alkalis

The legend of alkalis In a world where power isn't a gift—it’s a puzzle. To awaken a Skill, you must meet a specific, often bizarre, and occasionally ridiculous condition. Once met, you aren't just a person anymore; you’re a player in the grand design of the era. ​Currently, the world belongs to The Five. They are the legendary figures the history books are already being written about. They have the fame, the world-shaking abilities, and the burden of saving everything from the encroaching darkness. They are loud, they are powerful, and they are absolutely certain that they are the center of the universe. ​But they are wrong. ​While the Five are busy fighting battles and arguing over their place in the prophecy, a deeper mystery is unfolding in the background. Someone is watching. Someone who doesn't fit the legend. Someone who hasn't even been introduced yet. ​The stage is set and the Five are ready for their close-up, but the real story hasn't even begun. ​Welcome to the era of the Five Heroes. Try not to blink, or you’ll miss the person actually holding the strings. -------------,,------------------------------------ ​Author’s Note: The "Alkalis" Evolution ​"To my 10,000+ readers, thank you for the incredible support! ​I am currently undergoing a Master Polish of Chapters 1 through 25. My goal is to enhance the world-building of Alkalis, deepen the descriptions of the TECO system, and provide you with a high-quality, professional reading experience. ​A Word of Advice: As the chapters are updated, keep a very sharp eye on the details. Some of the most 'insignificant' moments in these early chapters contain the seeds of a history that will shake the world 100 chapters from now. History starts in the places you least expect. ​Thank you for being part of this journey. The true awakening is just beginning!"

My Vampire System In The Dragon World

In a broken world of ash and black clouds, dragons rule the sky and old vampire clans rule the ground. Human life is cheap, sold in chains to dark lords who drink blood and wage silent wars in the night. Kairn is a nameless slave boy in an iron mine at the edge of a dead kingdom, beaten, starving, and waiting to die. On the night a blood-red comet crosses the sky, a dying dragon crashes into the mine and burns everything Kairn has ever known. As he lies under stone and fire, a cold voice speaks in his mind and offers him a deal: live as a cursed vampire, bound to a hidden System that hungers for blood, or die as nothing. Kairn chooses to live. He wakes as a newborn vampire with a status screen carved into his soul, weak stats, and one strange path: “Draconic Bloodbound – locked.” To grow stronger, he must hunt in the dark, feed on those who would kill him, and survive the hunt of both humans and elder vampires who fear what he might become. As Kairn’s level rises, his powers twist his body, his mind, and his sense of mercy. He learns that the System is not a neutral guide but a chain forged by the First Sire, an ancient monster who once enslaved dragons and turned their blood into fuel for vampire evolution. The only way to break that chain is to claim a dragon of his own and evolve into something the world has never seen. In a land where the sun is a rare ghost behind storm clouds and trust is a quick way to die, Kairn must decide what he will sacrifice: his last human feelings, his few fragile allies, or the whole burning world above. There will be no heroes, only hunters and prey.

The Broken Halo

‘How cliché. I’ve read countless novels where the Hero is betrayed by their companions… but was I wrong to trust those who fought beside me for nearly six decades?’ ----- Betrayal. A word many live in fear of. A word some never expect… until it happens. A word that completely shatters one’s view of life. Just like any other heroic tale, Simon was the Hero of Earth, the one who defeated the Demon King and was about to end the war between races with his companions. Yet, in the end, he was betrayed by his own companions for reasons he never understood. Instead of finding death, Simon found rebirth. To his horror, he reincarnated as the very race he had devoted his entire life to exterminating… a race he despised, feared, and was disgusted by. Reborn as a demon infant within one of the most impoverished demon tribes, Simon found himself at the very bottom of a world he once sought to destroy. Fortunately, he was not entirely abandoned. His unique Seven Star Blessing, bestowed by his patron God, followed him through reincarnation. Armed with this Blessing and the Demonic Magic of his new race, Simon now harbors an ambition greater than ever before… to rise higher than he ever did as the Hero of Earth. To become a God. But the path forward is far from simple. Betrayals from those he would never expect. Endless trials and tribulations. And the lingering question of identity… Should he cling to his past as a human hero, or embrace his nature as a demon to survive? Can Simon abandon his hatred and live among demons? Or will he erase his past entirely and fully embrace his demonic nature? Will his thirst for revenge drag him deeper into darkness… Or will he rise above it? In the end… Will he be devoured… or will he devour all?

The Ugly Duckling Of The Tiger Tribe

A prideful snake who bowed to no one—until he became a jealous husband. A snow tiger beast warrior feared and respected, reduced to an obedient husband. A wolf known as a Casanova, who never stayed—until he chose loyalty. And a selfish merman who learned generosity for the first time, expecting nothing in return for his prized possession. All of them changed after meeting one woman... After sniffing in an impossible scent. Her name is Arinya. …And unfortunately for this world, that’s me, haha. *** I wrote a book once. It was an unhinged fantasy born from my high-school brain, driven by loneliness and too many hormones. It was a world of beastmen, wild freedom, and the kind of romantic attention I could never get in real life. I poured every impossible desire into it: adventure, danger, and yes… a 'lot' of handsome partners. Before I knew it, I had a thousand chapters of pure escapism and pure thrill. Then on a college camping trip, I fell off a cliff. I expected to wake up in a hospital room but nope. I woke up on a soft field of grass, with air too fresh to belong anywhere on Earth. And then something moved behind me. Sticking out of my tailbone was... A tail. My tail? Yellow and black stripes and very, very real. I touched it. Completely real. My ears? Also gone—well, moved. They were now perched on top of my head like a confused jungle cat. And the outfit? Quite revealing, made of animal hide which matched my tail. What was going on? At first, I thought it was a prank. Or a dream. Or maybe karma is finally cashing in. But the more foreign memories evaded my mind, the clearer my situation became. This wasn't cosplay and it wasn't Earth, either. And—surprise—it wasn't even the world from my own book. Welp. I had been transported into a completely different Beastman world as a beast girl called Arinya. Sounds fun, right? Well… it would be, if I weren't apparently the ugliest duckling in the entire freaking savannah! Rejected by every potential mate I stumbled across and sneered at like a freaking eyesore. This was not how I planned my fantasy to come to reality. Trust me—if this is my fantasy come true, then someone needs to fire the author. But then again, after entering this world, I'm suddenly... Attractive. I mean, there's no change to my face and the freckles are still there, but for some reason, handsome beastmen begin to flock around me, wanting to be my mate because I smell... Pleasant. What's that all about?
