Monarch Of Abyss

Ryojin Kurohane, a warrior- in the mortal realm who draws power from the Nexus Abyss- an ethereal convergence point where the four realms(mortal, demon, spirit and god) overlap-is betrayed by his friend. And the Celestial Order cast him into the Nexus Abyss, an eternal void where even gods fear to tread. Instead of perishing, he adapts, absorbing the Abyss . After years of torment and evolution, he breaks free, returning to a world that has long forgotten him. But he is no longer the same. He is now something beyond gods, beyond mortals-a force of judgment.

How far would you go to save your family? Would you take a life for them? A hundred? A thousand? How many before your conscience finally screams, "Enough"? They answered this question with [Ruination]—an unprecedented catastrophe that wiped out countless universes, all for the faintest chance to reclaim what was lost. No hesitation. No regret. Perhaps the Heavens sought to reward them for their love—or punish them for the slaughter of untold worlds. Either way, they were granted a second chance—to return to the past and reshape their fate. In a world where every lifeform’s destiny is predetermined by the Heavens, NOX and Lucas uncover a chilling truth: the purpose of life is not merely to exist, but to pursue [Transcendence]. One is destined to achieve [Transcendence], while the other—whether willing or unwilling—must assist another in achieving it. Follow NOX and Lucas, as one is fated to transcend, while the other is doomed to be forgotten by history. Can they break free from their predetermined paths? Or will they scream, “I will defy the Heavens!” like a protagonist in a Dragon Country novel? Can the Heavens tolerate such blasphemy?

Nobles. Hunters. Warlocks. Sorcerers. Monsters. Beasts. And Loch, an orphan with a tainted arm, is about to get a perilous crash course on how these mighty creatures weave their webs of power in a world where the supernatural goes hand in hand with science. The world of Aegis is filled with all manner of powerful beings, but these powerful beings didn't start strong; they grew, evolved, and ascended. By twisting the power of the Tainted Aether, the very lifeblood that runs through all things in the world of Aegis, humans have taken a step to rise above their original status as prey and have joined the ranks of the predators. After millennia of fortifying and no small number of sacrifices, Humans have cut a slice of the hazardous lands for themselves, with their ringed cities built on blessed soil and defended by magic and machines, each ruled over by a being so powerful they are title with the name of royalty, Monarch. Some Humans have begun to be born and die without seeing a shadow of the many monstrous existences that used to have a human or two for breakfast. It is in one of these ringed cities where an Orphan born with a common deformity due to Tainted blood is about to learn what it takes to rise above the masses and ascend to the almost mythical level of Monarch. A GRIMDARK story filled with classic sword and magic elements but also a very heavy sprinkling of guts, guns, and glory. Humans can only rise past their limits by hunting the many beasts and monsters that roam the lands of Aegis.

Growing up on the streets, Rhys' only instinct was survival—by any means necessary. But when the man who took him in disappears, his search leads him to Haloway, a metropolis plagued by a mysterious madness that turns humans into monsters known as Marauders. After a brutal attack, Rhys is dragged into The Abyss, a brutal hell where he must navigate its deadly trials, where only those who escape are marked as Revenants—beings forged in darkness and power. "The Abyss deprives you of everything, even death, no matter how much you yearn for it."

What if you spend your whole life like a vegetable in a hospital bed? Only being able to speak and listen. Just that. Would you go crazy? Unbalanced? What if it was all the fault of a degenerate madman looking for his parents' inheritance? Would you be angry? Would you be mentally broken? That was Kayden's life for 20 years and as quickly as it started, it ended, but luckily for him, reincarnation existed and by some miracle, he still had his memories of it. And....his new world had...magic. In the first moment of consciousness, Kayden made a promise to himself, in this life, he would achieve everything, he would reach the height of power, he wouldn't give a damn about women or money, futile things that would condemn him to mediocrity, his focus was to have the power to rule his destiny, this time he would not be a slave to his own life, he would be a monarch.

The seasoned player of "Abyss of Stars," the [Starfall Master] Li Zi, brings a system template and travels to the game's world, arriving in the era of the game's beta version. This is the worst of times. The cosmic forces and conglomerates collude, causing the doors to the universe to be closed, the planet's resources to be exhausted, and even sunlight to be monopolized. This is also the best of times. All the extraordinary systems are just beginning. In this era, he is the only [Starfall Master] with the final version patch. While people are enthralled by the smoke of plasma guns and cannons, Li Zi has already torn apart battleships with gravity. While superhumans are smug about their awakened abilities, moonlight has already become Li Zi's servant. While the interstellar fleet crosses the Milky Way, Li Zi has just ignited the forty-second star, illuminating the entire universe. "People have been trapped on the ground for too long; they've forgotten that this starry sky should belong to all of us." —Facing the unspeakable aboriginal evil gods, Li Zi, holding a black hole, gently said.

Having spent her childhood confined in chains, Alice was a child who knew neither love nor joy. Scorned by her family while being tortured in the name of the greater good for years, she grew numb to all feeling and thought. That is, until one day, a man in black offered her a chance to escape. There were once rumours widespread of an endless hell, a land of glorious death and dreadful opportunity. Fools went in search of it, and the clever never ventured into it. Only when its baleful mysteries spilled unto the earth did all hear its name — the Abyss. A single drop of its blood could give someone the power to control shadows, move faster than sound, or strength greater than the strongest man. Yet, it all came at a cost; the blood would always make sure those who consumed it became part of the Abyss, with one exception — Alice. Cast away by her own blood, it was her destiny to rot in a gilded cage. But, that fateful day changed everything. Gifted a second chance at life, a chance to turn her life around and claim vengeance against her family, a chance to dive deep into the Abyss and gain the power to govern her own fate, Alice took his hand, unaware of the destiny unfolding before her.

"Some doors should never be opened. Some secrets should never be uncovered. But when the Abyss calls, no one escapes." Aryan, an ordinary IT professional, never expected his life to spiral into darkness. When his close friend Meera goes missing, what starts as a simple inquiry turns into a nightmare of blood, deception, and an ancient cult known as The Pendulum of Death. The deeper Aryan digs, the more horrifying the truth becomes—people disappearing without a trace, ritualistic murders, and a secret that refuses to stay buried. Alongside his loyal friends Karan and Riya, and the sharp-witted police officer Naina, Aryan finds himself on a collision course with a deadly force that transcends reality. As they uncover the cult’s twisted rituals, hypnotic mind control, and a leader who claims to have touched the Abyss itself, they realize that stopping them means more than just survival—it means preventing an apocalyptic sacrifice. But when the Cult Leader offers Aryan a choice—become the new vessel or let the world burn—Aryan must face the ultimate truth. Because the Abyss never truly dies. And those who stare into it for too long… never return the same.

Betrayed and sacrificed by a shadowy cult, Alex should have died. Instead, time rewound one week, giving him a second chance. This time, he has an edge—the power to enhance any item up to a billion times. From a simple heirloom watch to legendary artifacts, his weapons defy logic. But true strength isn’t just about power—it’s about knowing when to reveal it. Staying in the shadows, Alex plays the world like a chessboard. Between ancient sects, mercenary guilds, and forgotten ruins, danger lurks everywhere. The cult that killed him is still out there. But this time… He’s the true predator.

The continent of Terrazir stretch across an endless sea of rolling hills, towering mountains, and vast prairies, where the history of clans and kingdoms is woven together with the blood of the innocent and the cries of the victors. At the heart of this vast territory lies the kingdom of Zhailon, a kingdom of grand structures and homeland of the strongest warriors. To many, it is an honor to belong to such a place, a symbol of strength, ambition, and power. For Aiden, however, it is nothing more than a graveyard of everything he once lost. The past does not disappear.

Betrayed. Forgotten. Erased from history. Kael Draven was once a loyal knight of the Divine Order, an elite warrior who fought in their name.

An unknown force grants Kael a second chance, sending him twenty years into the past. Now, in his seventeen-year-old body, he has one goal: to bring down the Divine Order from the shadows. Armed with knowledge of the future and a system that grants power at a deadly cost, Kael must rebuild his strength, gather allies, and navigate a world where his enemies still hold absolute control. But the deeper he digs, the more he realizes—the Divine Order’s corruption runs far deeper than he ever imagined. The world believes the Divine Order is untouchable. Kael will prove them wrong. This time, he won’t fight for them. He will bring them to ruin.

The power of absolute control... Time.

This is Shun Long's journey in the majestic world of cultivation, as he fights geniuses and reaches the pinnacle of both alchemy and martial arts!

But should he have knocked on the locked doors of Resonance… or surrendered himself to the quiet embrace of forgetfulness? ...................................................... Hey everyone!

In the midst of this growing chaos, Elias, a devoted priest, receives a vision—one that speaks of an ancient veil, the only thing standing between the abyss and total annihilation.
