Cultivation stages: Mortal, Soul, Earth, Sky, Master, True Master... Cale = three metres

A story of colors, constellations, and curious friendships, Painting Heavens is a whimsical adventure that proves sometimes, the brush can reach further than the blade.

For as long as Reon could remember, his life had been a monotonous cycle of solitude. A loner to the core, he buried himself in his studies and part-time jobs just to get by. No family. No friends. No joy. No sorrow. Just an empty existence. But fate had other plans. Reon suddenly found himself transmigrated into the world of a novel he had read, all because of a complaint about the Protagonist. However, he wasn’t reborn as the protagonist, a powerful supporting character or even a notable figure. No, fate had saddled him with the most pitiful role imaginable: A Villain! No, he wasn’t the villain who sparked fear to everyone or the rival who challenged the protagonist’s growth. No, he was that guy—the one who gets a single line of dialogue before being obliterated, his only purpose to highlight the hero’s strength. The kind of character readers would roll their eyes at and skip over without a second thought. Yes, he had become that kind of background character—cannon fodder, a disposable pawn, a nameless lackey serving under a third-rate villain! The worst kind of cliché—a spineless dog for a spoiled young master from a powerful family, wagging his tail at every order. The one whose destiny was to be manipulated and die a dog's death long before the main story even began. How could fate be so cruel? So petty?! But Reon wasn’t about to accept this. Not again. This time he wasn’t the Reon who had wasted away his first life. A world once confined to the pages of a novel had become his reality—a realm where strength commands respect, and the weak are trampled underfoot like insignificant ants. If this world wanted him to live like a dog and die like a stepping stone, it was dead wrong. This time, Reon resolved to live life to the fullest—to fight, to laugh, to love, to revel in the chaos of this fantasy world filled with magic, swords, and cultivation. No one would stop him from seizing his happiness. Not Fate. Not the so-called Protagonists. Not even Heaven itself. And if anyone dared to stand in his way? He would break the rules, exploit the extras, manipulate the main characters, and twist the very fabric of the story to serve his own ends. He would plunder the opportunities meant for the protagonist, destroy threats before they could rise, and rewrite his destiny with his own hands—whatever it took to carve out his path to survive. Would the main characters suffer? Who cares? Would the story change? Even better. This time, he would live without regrets. A glass of wine in one hand, a woman in the other, and unshakable strength beneath his feet. That was the plan… until the system arrived. . . [Ding! The Host has awakened the Heaven Plundering System! If he wishes to survive in this world, he must kill Heaven’s Child.] . . WHAAT! . . -----------------WARNING----------------- . . If you’re looking for a dense, shy, beta, dull-witted, wimpy, overly passive, or submissive protagonist—then I’m afraid this novel isn’t for you. Here, the main character will be Domineering, Ruthless, Calm, Intelligent, and Cunning. Most of the time, he’s cool, composed, and seemingly carefree guy… but the moment someone threatens the ones he loves, his true nature awakens—dark, merciless, and utterly menacing. Additionally, female leads will be Strong, Intelligent, and Loyal—not merely waiting for the main character to come and rescue them like a fairytale prince. The harem in this story will be large, with each member being capable and equally important to the plot. Every character will have their own role and growth, adding meaning to the story. . . NO NTR!! NO YURI!! [Though there will be a bit of playful intimacy between the harem members.] . . [There will be smut scenes in later chapters, it will be marked as (R-18) beside the headline. Minors, please exercise caution.] . . ***The story will unfold at a bit slower pace, so I encourage fellow Daoists to be patient and support me on this journey.***

Born under the Triune Celestial Convergence, Jian Feng wields power no mortal should possess. The Nine Serenities Jade chooses him, breakthroughs come effortlessly, and treasures fall into his hands as if guided by fate. But every blessing is a chain, recorded in the Ledgers of Mandate that bind his soul to the heavens.

When a cryptic summons from the Ministry of Karmic Ledgers calls him to the Court of Dust and Ashes, Jian Feng steps into a labyrinth of celestial politics and ancient secrets. The Veiled Star Marquis, a disgraced Heavenly General, offers a path to repay his first debt—the Stolen Constellation Pearl, hidden in the Vermillion Bird Legion’s vaults.

Born under the Triune Celestial Convergence, Jian Feng is no ordinary cultivator. Blessed by the heavens, he wields the Nine Serenities Jade, breaks through realms with ease, and finds treasures where others see only ruin. But every miracle comes with a price. Each blessing binds him with a Debt-Bond, a cosmic chain recorded in the Ledgers of Mandate within his soul. To defy the heavens is to invite catastrophic Tribulation; to obey is to become their pawn. When a mysterious summons from the Ministry of Karmic Ledgers calls him to the Court of Dust and Ashes, Jian Feng steps into a web of celestial politics and ancient secrets. The Veiled Star Marquis, a disgraced Heavenly General, offers a path to repay his first debt—but at what cost? From the jade peaks of the Argent Moon Sect to the starlit vaults of the Vermillion Bird Legion, Jian Feng must navigate immortal factions, heretical rebels, and the very laws of the cosmos. With three monumental debts to repay before the next Convergence, Jian Feng walks a razor’s edge. Will he shatter the chains of Heaven’s will, or become the key to a new cosmic order? In a universe where every favor is a debt, one truth is clear: even the favored son cannot escape the ledger.

Wu Feng was just a failed livestreamer with a sharp tongue and no filter—until he died mid-rant and reincarnated into a cultivation world as a “spirit-rootless trash orphan.” But instead of cultivating the Dao, he cultivates disrespect. Bound to the Petty System, Wu Feng gains power by humiliating hypocrites, roasting arrogant disciples, and dismantling centuries-old traditions—publicly. Armed with illusions, verbal kung fu, trolling combat arts, and a complete immunity to shame, he climbs the ladder of power by becoming the most disrespected man in the realms. While others ascend through pills and enlightenment, Wu Feng rises through poetic insults, sabotage, and theatrical revenge. The path of the Petty Sovereign has begun—and no one’s reputation is safe.

A boy—no, a man—from modern-day Earth. He didn’t live a tragic life. His parents cared. But the world? It didn’t treat him the same. He never asked to return. Reborn into royalty on a distant world—not Earth, but a planet nearing space exploration—his second life begins not with trauma but with purpose. His name now is Isaiah, born into a race unlike any other. A race not of humans, nor demons, but angels—beings capable of crossing space without cultivation. Yet power is still required. Cultivation remains the language of strength. Isaiah must grow in a world where empires stretch across galaxies, where spirit and steel walk side by side—and where his own people expect him to rise far above what he was on Earth. But he doesn’t want to become a god. He just doesn’t want to be forgotten.

In this world, is there freedom? After seeking, I found my answer throughout my life. Around my twenties, I thought the world was lovable.

By then, I reached an agreement with myself. From that moment on, I will start pursuing true freedom. The freedom to do whatever I please! I'll drown rivers and burn flames. In the pursuit of Eternal Life.
