Unsheathed

He was once the Young Temple Master of the Medicine God Hall—a peerless powerhouse who commanded the wind and clouds! Three years ago, he was grievously ambushed by eighteen top-tier experts, suffered a brain injury, and became an idiot! Three years later, the Medicine God returned! He held dominion over life and death, controlling Yin and Yang! Wife of a shared lifetime, I wish to treat you with tenderness my whole life! To my past enemies, I desire to unsheathe my sword and shred your nets, annihilating your entire clan!

His head gradually bowed, and he fell to his knees in a pool of blood, sinking into despair. But when the time came, he knew he had to rise again, to continue bearing his heavy responsibilities and mission. "I cannot die! I must not die! I still have duties unfulfilled, a mission unfinished. If I fall, it would be a betrayal of my Lord! How could I fall? How dare I fall? I must not fall! I, Vahnlysu, will never fall! I must stand up! I must rise again! I will fight once more!" With that, he unsheathed the legendary sword, long sealed away, and a divine aura enveloped the entire area. "Great Father, please transform into my sword!" The legendary greatsword now appeared before everyone. When Borne looked again, he saw Vahnlysu raise the Greatsword of Divineking in his left hand, while his right hand held the Righteousness Greatsword low, forming a connection between heaven and earth. His clothing was tattered, his body hunched, but his expression remained resolute. He stood once more before Borne, gazing down upon him with the presence of a divine king. "My Lord, please forgive your foolish lamb, for today I must borrow your power." he murmured softly.

In a realm shrouded by humanity's darkest sins, a world adrift in a sea of lost purpose, Allthim decreed a final reckoning. Age after age, emissaries of divine light were cast forth, beacons in the night of ignorance. Yet, their sacred words were met with scorn, their holy missions met with steel. Now, as twilight descends upon creation, Souael, a soul ignited by fate, is chosen to be the last ember of hope. A mantle of destiny is draped upon his shoulders, a burden of truth to be borne. For within the heart of this world, a grotesque tapestry of deceit has been woven, a perversion of morality cloaked in societal grace. Souael, a sword unsheathed for righteousness, must first cleanse this corrupted soil before striking at the root of evil. Amidst the labyrinth of deception, he finds solace in the omniscience of his creator: "They weave webs of lies, but He is the master weaver of fate." With faith as his compass and justice as his blade, Souael embarks on a perilous journey, a cosmic ballet between light and darkness, as the world trembles on the precipice of oblivion. Note: I reworked my previous delayed novel. This time I have my precious semester break to write. I write it in my first language, so I just translate the original using AI. My apologize.

He’d come to cherish his mates and the life growing inside of him. The huntress unsheathed her knife and opened the cell door. She was going to kill him

Despite his precarious situation, a young man ignored the union's provocations! His violet robe was in tatters, showing the incredible number of attacks he received, yet there was no sign of injury at all. Noticing the wicked smile tugging at his lips, the pursuing heroes warily watched him, cautious of a final attack. It was only by working together that they could corner a monster like him.

Raphael "Reaper" Stone moved with calculated precision, enforcing the will of unseen puppeteers, his presence a harbinger of impending darkness. In the quiet solitude of her antique shop, Olivia "Oracle" Chang foresaw the threads of destiny weaving together, her eyes reflecting the weight of untold tales and forgotten sins.

There was once a peculiar book, unpopular among the mass and readers alike because of its unique way of story-telling. Even, call it a story book would be strange, it's more fit to be called a guidebook. And what the content of this guidebook, you ask? A Martial arts. From the boring brown, plain looking book cover with only the title. To the content of how-to, delivered with story-telling format, meticulously kind to the reader, this book really feel out of this world. More correctly, it's like a fruit of martial arts otaku who seems deluded themself as a martial god who comprehend the law or something. But as an martial art otaku, Ryong Bong love for this book has reach an obsession level. From the prequels, four Scripture of Sun, Moon, Star and Earth, to the final book, the Scripture of Heaven. Ryong faithfully read them everytime when there are updates. Alas, every thing will come to an end, and it seems this was the case for the Scripture series. Ryong was sad. After all, this book has accompany him throughout his miserable teenage life, until now. But, fate allows him to live a new life, in a new world. A world where martial arts are the norm. "That was 20 years ago, huh. Time sure fly fast." Ryong said, while unsheath his sword. In front of him, there were hundreds of men. Baring their sword. On their vanguard, stood an seemingly handsome young man. They all fiercely looking at Ryong, ready to advance. "Ryong, this is the last time i warn you. Give us your technique, and cripple your Qi core. I will let you live, even reward you with anything you want for the rest of your life." the young man voice were soft, but there is a hint of wickedness in that voice. Ryong snorted. From the beginning he never fear this man, nor the army behind him. Even if they all first-class force and martial artist, it's all nothing in front of his eyes. Ryong smirked, not answering the command that young man give. Understood that Ryong has never thought to give up, the two force soon collide.

"Hehehehehehe," Sean laughed and decapitated the Ravenger. He dashed to the rest and began stabbing them one after the other fatally. He threw his sword at a Ravenger, impaling it in the wall. Another Ravenger dashed to him from behind and he stabbed his sword into it's eyes, twisting it until it's eyes fell off. He pressed some commands on the watch and it began playing music. It played a song by Pop Smoke called, "Wolves ft NAV". Music gave him utmost concentration in almost everything. The general threw three daggers at three Ravengers, impaling them on the ground. He punched a Ravenger so hard, the impact sent it crashing into a dead soldiers sword, impaling it on it. "Kill the fucking Ravengers nigga, all of em nigga, don't fuck around nigga," Sean stabbed a Ravenger on its belly, spilling its rotten intestines. He stretched his hand and his second sword was immediately attracted to his palm and he used it to decapitate the head of another Ravenger. 4MINS Later "We did it," the whole camp shouted as they managed to defeat the Ravengers with only 5 dead ninjas. They shouted as they danced happily. Suddenly, the Ravenger proximity alarm started ringing and they immediately prepared themselves for another battle. "What the fuck's happening," a large Ravenger with large muscles stepped out of the broken gates of the camp and the ninjas stepped back. This was a rare specie of Ravengers and were very resistant to conventional weapons. "Don't just stand there, attack," the general commanded and the ninjas attacked in unison. Two ninjas strikes their swords at the Ravenger but it shattered on impact as if they were glass shards. The Ravenger grabbed them and swallowed them as blood dripped from its mouth. "Restrain," the general shouted and they immediately removed ropes from hidden compartments in the camp and speedily tied the Ravenger who was significantly slower than the regular Ravenger. Different ropes were tied on it as the general walked slowly towards it with his sword unsheathed. He slashed the Ravenger with share strength but his sword just shattered as expected. "He's breaking free," one of the ninja's said as they tried to hold the Ravenger down. The general tried to stab it with a green metal but the Ravenger stood up, sending the ninjas flying into different directions. The Ravenger grabbed the general despite his struggling. "Dad," Sean screamed and leapt at the ravenger, stabbing his sword into its eyes, penetrating it. The Ravenger snapped the general's bones into shards before leaving him as it charged to Sean who stood transfixed at a spot looking at his father's untimely death. The Ravenger kept coming but was stopped by a ninja Who tried to push it away. The Ravenger simply slapped him away, sending him crashing down the waterfall. Sean then pulled out of his troubled mind as he heard the screams of the ninja Who sacrificed himself for him. Sean leapt away from the claws of the Ravenger and ran towards his father's body to pick the green metal which was lying on the floor. He looked at his dad for some seconds before facing the Ravenger who was charging at him and the waterfall behind him. "For the lin qui," Sean whispered and walked backwards until his foot touched the end of the Mountain. The unsuspecting Ravenger bulldozed him and the force pushed both itself and Sean into the water fall. As they went down, Sean stabbed the Ravenger with the green metal and it surprisingly penetrated it, earning a very loud growl from the Ravenger who slashed his face with its claws. Sean was on top of the Ravenger as they kept going down. Be stabbed the Ravenger again and they landed on a large rock. Sean felt the force but was protected by the dead body of the Ravenger. He rolled away from it (not after removing the metal) and swam to the shore as he breathed heavily. ********TO BE CONTINUED******** Emmy Spark Out. What do u think?

Martial Central World, Southern Region, Southern Continent, Southernmost Kai Domain, South Bai Area, Black Heaven Mountain Black Heaven Mountain was the only orthodox sect existing in a radius of a thousand kilometers. The sect was situated on a small mountain range consisting of nine peaks. The name 'Black Heaven' was derived from these nine mountain peaks which seemed to stretch to the heavens. Also, the tips of the mountains were black-colored due to the rare spiritual trees which only grew on this mountain range. Furthermore, they could only appear at the topmost peaks. The spiritual trees were named Black Heaven Trees too. The sect got its name from this more than from the mountain range. Coincidentally…the mountain range was also called the Black Heaven Mountain Range. It was all a little weird. Aside from the nine peaks, there was actually a tenth mountain. However, it was so small that it was negligible. It was only around a hundred meters tall. The other mountain peaks were more than a thousand meters to the top, so in comparison the tenth seemed like a mole hill squashed between towering ant mounds. The nine peaks all had a pavilion guarding them, and they were part of the Black Heaven Mountain. However, the tenth peak was different. There were actually a hundred other small peaks similar to it, just that they were much smaller, only around fifty meters tall. These small peaks were reserved for the residences of top disciples. The tenth peak was the biggest and was given to the number one disciple who was also the leader of all the disciples. Currently, in the residence located on the tenth peak, a youth was standing respectfully in the courtyard. In front of him was another youth who looked even younger than him. He looked to be only sixteen years old and he was extremely handsome. He had sharp eyebrows that exuded majesty and looked refined, like an unsheathed sacred sword. This young man was not a disciple of Black Heaven Mountain. Instead, he was the junior brother of the Sectmaster, or Mountain Lord. Thus, he had the title of Martial Grand-Uncle. The top disciple was also handsome, with long black hair flowing behind him in the wind like a soft, dark river. However, he wasn't very tall, and his face was androgynous. Compared to the Martial Grand-Uncle, he was more of a pretty boy with a white face. His handsomeness undoubtedly fell far below the former. After all, the youth before him was like an immortal walking in the mortal world. His appearance was perfect in every aspect, and it seemed like only gods would be able to rival him. However, there was something even more terrifying about the youth, which was his strength! That's right, even though he was not even twenty years old, he was already stronger than his senior brother, the Mountain Lord, who had lived for nearly a hundred years and had reached the ninth level of the Heavenly Core realm. Of course, this was a fact that not many people knew. The top disciple had only known it by chance, which was also the reason that led him to having an amicable relationship with this peerless genius.  "Martial Grand-Uncle, what brings you here? I'll prepare some delicacies if you want, and we can enter my residence to let me properly greet you." Bai Chuhan, the top disciple, respectfully said to Hao Ren. "No need," Hao Ren waved his hand. "I was just passing by and saw you do your morning cultivation practice. I stopped to observe since I had nothing to do. You actually don't need to greet me. Continue your cultivation." Bai Chuhan was stunned, then he felt awkward. He couldn't really ignore Hao Ren, could he? That would be extremely disrespectful and go against the Mountain custom and rules. Moreover, he himself respected Hao Ren deeply, and viewed him as his idol and goal to boost his motivation and spirit.
