Dort kann man starken Wein aus Zinnoberfrüchten und Wasser aus der Quelle des Lebens trinken.

Lin Yu, being a contemporary high school teacher in his universe, suddenly finds himself transmigrated into the body of a junior talent in the Xu Dynasty era. This is a reality in which mighty cultivators have powers bordering on the divine, and common men and women are but gears in the wheel of a brutal and merciless empire.

Yang Qing sighed as he gazed upon the black building that stood tall piercing the skies above with an inviolable aura around it. "The Order sure is black-hearted," he angrily thought as he made his way into the building begrudgingly. The building could be considered his home away from home and a source of endless grief for him due to its unforgiving working hours. The building housed the courtrooms of the Cultivation Order Society, an organization founded to maintain a semblance of order in the ruthless cultivation world of the southern continent who if left to their own devices would sink the whole continent to the ground. Due to how impetuous cultivators were, the cases never stopped. "Yi Jie, what do we have today?"

In the future, where humanity once fled their dying homeworld, Earth, to settle on a prosperous second home world named Noverra, they found themselves once again facing the same fate of world ruin. At the heart of this collapse was Nexus, a powerful organization that governed the planet’s fate, which chose to selfishly and greedily drain it dry in the name of survival. Fortunately, fate had not abandoned them just yet. Nexus discovered a mysterious artifact known as the Golden Apple—an ancient device with the ability to connect two worlds. Through it, they found the world of Avalon, a promising land brimming with untapped wealth and potential. Kael Falsheart, once hailed as the greatest merchant in both Noverra and Avalon, was killed by Nexus, who feared his growing power and influence. However, in an unexpected twist of fate, he wakes up in the body of his twenty-year-old self, evidently given a second chance at life. Although Kael is now armed with all the knowledge of the future, he barely has the intention of saving Noverra, taking revenge, or getting involved with Nexus, at least that wasn’t his priority yet… Instead, he has only one goal in mind—to reclaim his power, build his own force, and carve an empire untouched by Nexus’ reach. This time, better, faster, stronger, and smarter. He simply wants to do it right! From the decaying slums of Rustfall to the untamed wilds of Avalon, Kael begins a calculated return to greatness once more. But with the clock ticking quickly toward Nexus’ growing forces in the new world, and enemies lurking in both past and future, he must move swiftly to prepare. Because when you’ve once ruled the world of merchants, you don’t come back to bargain. You come back to own everything.

Yun Lintian, a man from Earth, found himself in a clichéd transmigrated situation and ended up in the Azure World, a magical cultivation-oriented world. Unlike the protagonists in the novels he had read, Yun Lintian lacks any cheating devices to assist him on his journey. Did the God of Transmission forget about it? However, as a crisis unfolds, an ancient power dormant within him suddenly awakens, entangling him in a mysterious destiny... Watch the journey of Yun Lintian in a foreign world as he rises in power ranking alongside his precious all-female sect! ————————————— DISCLAIMER: The protagonist of this novel is exceptionally powerful, resourceful, and mature.

Everything in this novel is pure fantasy based on the author's imagination. It does not reflect the real world. Hence, readers should not attempt to apply their common sense and logic to this novel. Constructive criticism is always welcome. ————————————— All rights to the cover belong to the original artist.

She even received a big project in creating informational writing content on social media from a big company. She fell in love with a man named Yohan Morgan Davidson, the son of the owner of the Aiha company engaged in the manufacture of medical device technology.

Dr. Lila Reyes, a pioneering quantum physicist aboard New Carthage Station, never anticipates her prototype time‑rift device yanking Captain Edmund Hartley from 1822—into her sterile, high‑tech world. Linked by a shimmering temporal tether that pulses with every brush of skin, Lila's meticulously logical mind is thrown into disarray by Edmund's old‑world gallantry and devil‑may‑care charm. As the rift flickers between centuries, Lila and Edmund involuntarily swap memories: one moment she's adrift in a starship skirmish, the next he's navigating moonlit Regency gardens. With each fragmented recollection, they uncover hidden longings—Lila savors the heady rush of horse‑drawn carriage races, while Edmund tastes the hollow ache of cosmic isolation in zero‑G. But every shared memory frays the fabric of reality, risking a catastrophic convergence of two timelines. Compelled to collaborate across time, they pursue cryptic clues through mist‑cloaked 19th‑century ballrooms and neon‑bathed orbital docks, wrestling with an impossible choice: seal the rift and be forever torn apart, or let destiny unravel for a chance at love that defies all boundaries. With each daring kiss and whispered confession, Lila and Edmund discover that some bonds transcend space, time—and even death.

[THREE CHAPTERS EVERY WEEK!!!] The Augmented Virtual Personal Computer (AVPC) is a cutting-edge virtual reality headset powered by the world's most powerful and smartest artificial intelligence. Jing Hoo was among the fortunate few to grab his hands on one after winning a beta-tester lottery. In other words, he became a pioneer. Testing the tech before anyone else.

People would say mermaids are myths. Some would say, they don’t exist, some would say they’re just one’s imagination that was put to paper for money and fame, some would rather say they do exist like the dragons, dinosaur, Tyrannosaurus and triceratops but can not be seen with the ordinary eyes. Some would say they’re rumors and fairytales because they can not be snapped by phones or mobile devices, rather. But none of these they said matched with what the world’s wealthiest eligible bachelor, Justin Chadwick knew. Though, he must have seen them couple of times in the movies, heard about them in books, folktales and all of that. But it became a reality to him since he was eighteen and ever since then, he got struck with the trauma. He’d think that it was as a result of his excess overthinking or too many hallucinations that led to his first revelation of half human and fish creature. But what happens when he met the aqua feminine creature that he usually sees in his dreams now in reality? *** Justin Chadwick is the world’s most powerful and scandalous bachelor—young, filthy rich, emotionally detached, and addicted to pleasure. But beneath the luxury and headlines, he hides a mystery that’s haunted him since he turned eighteen: a recurring vision of a woman who isn’t fully human. She's beautiful. Ethereal. In every dream, she appears just before something terrible happens in his life. Her name is Priyanka, and she’s a mermaid. For years, Justin convinced himself it was all in his head—hallucinations, fantasy, stress. Until one night, while partying at his elite private bar, he sees her sitting there on one of the barstools. Real. In mermaid form. Drenched. Silent. Watching him like she’s known him forever. And she has. Only him could see her. Only him could communicate with her. Only him could notice her among the hundreds of people balling in the bar. Priyanka is young by mermaid standards, sent from the deep with a mission: to warn Justin of the future. She’s a guide, a prophet of the waters. Her job is not to love, not to interfere. But Justin is not what she expected. He’s reckless, self-absorbed, womanizing—and yet, there’s a pull neither of them can explain. She begins appearing to him more often—sometimes in dreams, sometimes in the real world—to warn him of danger, betrayal, or changes in his future. He starts to listen, obey, and even protect her presence from the outside world. Slowly, he changes. Against every rule, Justin falls for her. And even though Priyanka tries to stay distant, his transformation moves something in her too. But she knows the truth: falling in love with a human is forbidden. To protect him and her people, she must not return his feelings. The more he loves her, the greater the risk to both their worlds.

[(MUST READ)] Guide to the World of Signo Welcome to Signo, a world powered by its mystical core—the very heart that fuels all life, magic, resources, and invention. The closer one’s essence is to Signo’s Core, the greater their strength and abilities become. The Seven Continents & Their Graces Each continent is overseen by one of the Seven Graces, divine-like beings who govern different aspects of power and existence: Evascera – Domain of the Grace of Life Neuraleth – Domain of the Grace of Senses Elarith – Domain of the Grace of Space Yhrakka – Domain of the Grace of Beasts Ceravayn – Domain of the Grace of Mind Thorneal – Domain of the Grace of Death Chronisca – Domain of the Grace of Time Geography & Culture There are no countries in Signo. The Seven Graces rule all, and instead of nations, the world is divided into cities—each with its own unique culture and societal structure. The Vanderes – The True Threat The Vanderes are otherworldly invaders, often just as strong—if not stronger—than the Graces themselves. They are feared as the natural predators of the Graces, and their presence threatens the balance of the world. Power System: Magic, Warriors, and Craftsmen All power in Signo flows through a concept called Connection—the bond between one's spirit and Signo itself. Mages: Use magic through their Connection to Signo Fuel magic with mental strength (willpower > stamina) Can cast, summon, buff, and reshape elements according to will Stronger mages have unwavering mental discipline Most use magical weapons or mediums forged from resources near Signo's core Warriors: Cannot use magic, but have bodies directly connected to Signo Possess superhuman physical strength and endurance Born with combat-optimized traits that limit magic use Craftsmen: Experts in smithing, engineering, and invention Can detect and utilize rare resources with ease Can use magic, but only to fuse with creations or tools Their Connection aligns with utility, not offense Anomalies: Rare individuals are born with both mage and warrior traits—they are mysterious, powerful anomalies, and their nature is still not fully understood, and some anomalies have abilities that are completely astray from basic principles. Elements & Alignment Magic is categorized by elemental attributes. A mage’s Connection can determine their affinity: A tornado-shaped connection = Wind alignment A glowing molten core = Fire Crystalline aura = Ice or Earth And so on… Some individuals are capable of wielding multiple elements. Warriors manifest elements through their combat style and personality Artificers reflect elements in the materials they use and the devices they create The 10 Taboo Beasts There exist ten legendary beasts—creatures so powerful they rival even the Graces. They are rarely seen, nearly impossible to track, and their existence is whispered in fear. Status: UNKNOWN

The year is 5244, and humanity has been on pause. Despite centuries of technological advancements, society has stagnated, glued to their phones. Knowledge, ambition, and human connection have crumbled. SOB442 a 12 year old.Is different. A self-proclaimed genius in a sea of mindless phone addicts, he feels like the last person alive who craves something more—knowledge, purpose, meaning. In a world where even his family barely looks up from their devices, SOB442’s only friend is TFR100, a friend so absorbed in tech he barely knows how to speak.But everything changes the day they stumble upon a mysterious object in TFR’s basement: a “slab” unlike anything they’ve ever seen.

The world had long known about the portal machines, powerful devices capable of tearing open gateways to unknown realms. But they were far too dangerous, unpredictable, unstable. No one dared use them—until the meteorite came. Its explosion sent a wave of energy across the planet, awakening abilities in certain individuals. Fire, water, earth—elements now bent to human will. Suddenly, the portals weren’t just dangerous—they were opportunities. Guilds rose to power, controlling the machines, sending adventurers into the portals to retrieve crystal cores from creatures that had existed beyond human reach. These cores, ranked from F to SSS, became the key to strength, wealth, and influence. Leon was just a D-rank adventurer, skilled but unremarkable, always choosing solo missions over working in teams. He kept his distance from guild politics—until the master of Titan’s Fang took his own life, leaving the guild without a leader. Against all odds, Leon was chosen to inherit the position. But power breeds resentment. Just as he was about to take full control, his own guild turned on him. He never saw the final blow coming. Then, he woke up. Sixteen again. Before the betrayal. Before the leadership. Before the mistakes. This time, things would be different. And this time, he had a system—one that would make him stronger, faster, and ready to claim what was stolen from him.

"Fight me, claw me, hate me all you want, Kitten. But you’ll never be able to resist how your body begs and squirms for my touch. Can you?" ——— Humiliated and rejected by her mate, Evangeline Raymore thought her life couldn’t get worse—until her father, Alpha Graham, sold her to their most feared enemy, Ezaar Veyrin. Alpha Ezaar was everything she had been warned about—dashing, devilish, and dangerously deranged. But to her, he wasn’t just a Devious Alpha. He was her fated mate, one she had rejected two years ago. Aware that she was nothing more than a pawn in his deadly power games, Evangeline desperately tried to flee before Ezaar could torture and kill her, just as her father had murdered his family. But as they spent time together, Evangeline realized he was more than the rumors claimed. He was oddly caring, sometimes sweet, and irresistibly intoxicating, causing her plans to escape his clutches to dwindle. Little did she know, the only escape was to get eternally entangled with him, surrender to his desires, and allow him to mark her as his mate. His only mate! --- Excerpt: “Why would I need a weapon when I can kill you with my bare hands?" Evangeline snarled, her fingers curling around the bloody bastard’s neck. But he only laughed, the sound deep and taunting, causing her to tighten her grip. Unfazed by her threat, Ezaar caught her wrist, his touch sending a wave of heat through her body. With a sly smirk, he leaned closer, his warm breath grazing her ear. "But my neck isn't the only enticing place where you can use them, sweetheart,” Ezaar murmured, his voice low and velvety. “Perhaps we can explore more suitable locations in my bedroom."

I am going to die. That’s how the game goes. The less I know, the better—a hardcore otome game where the tragic villain, Johan Von Matilda, is fated to fall by his own daughter’s sword. A mere stepping stone for the protagonist to win the main heroine’s heart. And now? I’m him. “…Are you kidding me? I won’t let my daughter become a simp with no personality!” The problem is, I am just a healer with money and influence; my daughter hates me and is obsessed with him. The protagonist is obviously the one with unlimited plot armor. Blessed with Schrodinger’s Cat—an overpowered skill that makes him literally unkillable. Ding!

This isn’t how it was in the game. Why is the protagonist… changing?” [Warning: Even though at face it appears like any normal webnovel, I will warn ya there are many uncomfortable things and strong topics, grimdark stuff, and tragedy, more like Reverbed Inanity, but with dark humor, not everyone can read it with straight face, so be prepared, but I think even if you never read books like this, you will like this, cause it's done in a pretty fresh way.] [Discord: https://discord.gg/uXjPSCMwBZ] A.N.= A lot fun things here in the server like philosophy channel, team roast nights, gaming weekends, book club, Self improvement club, anime club, music hub, just started yesterday so still building, you will be the first members and pillars of this epic creative community I have envisioned, of course character art will be there as well...Nsfw too Ahem, there are many things and we are evolving everyday, come here and join this journey too :)

One dark night, while searching for adventure, Ben Tennyson discovered a mysterious clock in an abandoned cave. Without hesitation, he put it on, but little did he know that this watch, which he called the Ombratrix, was more than just a device. Umbratrix was a vehicle for a mysterious villain...0. To control Ben's mind and turn him into a means to achieve his dark goals. Li Bin's new abilities began to appear, but along with these abilities came shifts in his behavior, as he began to become more aggressive and reckless.

In a world where power is earned through pain, a boy with no card steps into the Dome - where memories fuel might, and the price of victory is your past. They say only the ranked survive. In a fractured world ruled by emotion-powered battles, K-Cards are everything - identity, status, and survival. The elite can cross borders, rewrite laws, and even buy time itself. Those without one? Forgotten. Ryke is cardless. A nobody. But when a mysterious device called a Veinlock activates on his arm and his sister's life is marked for death by a hereditary illness, he has no choice but to enter The Dome - a global battle arena where memory, pain, and strategy collide. Fighters sacrifice their deepest emotions to power up. Every battle costs something real. And in the Echo Dome, the whole world watches - but only the victor remembers. To save his family, Ryke must earn an S-Rank V-Card. But the more he wins, the more he loses... himself.
