Mushroom Oasis

Fear of Seeing God

August 12, 2027 Humanity took its last breath. At 8:47 AM GMT, the first nuclear mushrooms bloomed over the cities like monstrous flowers of the apocalypse. Washington, Moscow, Beijing, London, Paris—one after another, they ignited in blinding flashes, momentarily eclipsing the sun. The final explosions thundered exactly three years later, marking a bloody full stop in the history of the old world. Three years of darkness. Three winters without sunlight, where snow fell black with ash and temperatures rarely rose above minus twenty. Three eternities in hell, where time lost all meaning, where days blurred into one endless today, where tomorrow might never come. But the world didn’t end. It simply began again. Amid the ruins and ash, it wasn’t just humans who survived—They appeared. Genomes. Creatures that looked human… but weren’t. Some walked on air as if gravity were a cruel joke. Others stretched their limbs like rubber, crawling over rubble like spiders. Some lifted entire buildings with a single touch. And in their chests, between the third and fourth ribs, pulsed blood-red crystals. Those who cut them out and touched them could see the world through a Genome’s eyes. But to do that, they had to kill. And kill they did. First out of fear. Then out of curiosity. And finally—because the crystals became currency in this mad new world. Ten years passed. Ten years of hell. Humans stopped praying. They carved crystals from the living, traded organs for abilities, ate the flesh of those who’d once called them friends. They became worse than beasts. And then… they forgot. First, the details vanished—dates, names, faces. Then entire events faded. The war, the explosions, the ashen sky—all erased, as if someone had torn pages from the book of history. But the worst was yet to come. Because when you forget the mistakes of the past… You are doomed to repeat them.

Resonance..

In the poison‑choked wreckage of a once‑blue Earth, every breath is rationed, traded, or stolen. Only a scattered few known as Bonders can share their souls with relics steeped in trauma and distill clean air from memory itself. Nineteen‑year‑old Erno Linx carries the last keepsake of his mother: a cracked, war‑era gas mask that whispers with her fading voice. Each time Erno draws on the mask’s power he carves a pocket of purified wind, but the price is a vertigo of grief—he must relive her final breath, suffocating moments. Whispers speak of the White Ring, a glittering citadel where oxygen flows like water and the sky shines the color of forgotten mornings. Erno sets out across the Gray ruins and into the Red Wastes to reach it, hunting hope while hope hunts him. Harvesters flay memories for profit, the Black Lung Guild traffics in bottled anguish, and a phantom called Bleak stitches children’s dying breaths into weapons of song. Allies are no easier to trust: a time‑fracturing street fighter who counts loyalty in seconds, a medic whose sterile pendant is erasing her humanity, a wandering bard whose laughter splinters into fear. Their motives orbit Erno like moons—bright on one side, shadowed on the other. Why do some bonds awaken on the brink of death while others devour their wielders whole? What secret did Erno’s mother seal inside the mask before she fell? And if the White Ring truly is an oasis, why does its oxygen taste faintly of ash? To uncover the truth, Erno must decide whether to shoulder the burden of every memory he purifies or break the chain and watch the world choke in silence.

Reincarnated as a Mushroom?

BLURB > He was reborn by mistake. Raised with purpose. Loved by a god. Worshipped by monsters. And the galaxy doesn’t stand a fucking chance. Irvine’s soul took one wrong turn through the wheel of karma and woke up in a body grown by an intergalactic hivemind goddess with boundary issues and galaxy-sized ambition. Now he’s the golden child of a psychic swarm that feeds on control and burns whole worlds for affection. With Crystal at the helm, warriors like Kimchi, relic-weapons like Kiya, and a council of psionic horrors eager to call him king, Irvine must choose what kind of god he wants to be. Because when a hivemind learns to love... ...it doesn’t know when to stop. The universe will kneel—or get devoured trying. SYNOPSIS Irvine didn’t ask to be reincarnated, but the cosmos had other plans. And it didn’t hand him a cheat code or a clean slate—just one random boon, selected by an uncaring divine roulette wheel. Good karma? Bad karma? Balanced as all fuck. Now he's reborn in the body of a psionically tuned alien hybrid, raised from psychic infancy by Crystal, the hivemind queen of a race so advanced they’ve abandoned individuality for shared omniscience. All except her baby boy. Irvine is the singularity inside the swarm, the first soul allowed to think, dream, and desire independently. Trained by warriors like Kimchi, advised by bio-symbiotes like Kiya, loved ferociously by hive sisters like Diane, and shadowed by powers ancient and unnamed, Irvine is both weapon and wielder, saint and sacrifice. But empires don’t run on hugs and handjobs. As Crystal expands her dominion—across star systems and sentient nebulae—Irvine must lead the charge through blood, fire, and psionic flame. His soul is still human. His body? Engineered for extinction. His heart? Not entirely his anymore.

Her crewmates had long since perished, succumbing to despair and illness during the journey toward humanity's last hope. The Oasis of Technology However, Xylos-7 is not uninhabited. Elena soon discovers ancient ruins and a strange drone named Unit-X, which greets her with a puzzling message: "We have been waiting for you."

Project Omega and the Seed Guardian Elena learns that the Technological Oasis is part of Project Omega, a cosmic seed bank preserving millions of species, including humans, rescued from destroyed planets. The Architects of Xylos, who have now transcended their physical existence, designed this project as an act of redemption after their long history of observing, and even manipulating, the destinies of other civilizations—including the human Interstellar Federation, which ultimately collapsed due to its own mistakes. A New Beginning After passing a series of challenging trials that test her logic, adaptability, and even emotional capacity, Elena is appointed the Seed Guardian—the sole individual responsible for humanity's revival. She faces a profound moral dilemma: should she reveal the bitter truth about Earth's past and the Architects' intervention, or protect them with a lie for the sake of a new hope? Choosing to guide them with the truth, Elena begins the revival process. She becomes a bridge between a perished past and an unwritten future. Alongside Unit-X and the guardian drones she repaired, Elena guides the newly awakened humans to rebuild civilization on Xylos-7. They learn from past mistakes, creating a new society founded on collaboration, innovation, and harmony with the environment. Xylos-7 Thrives Thirty years pass, and Xylos-7 flourishes into a prosperous underground metropolis, with the planet's surface now hospitable for human life. Elena, as a wise leader, witnesses humanity find its own path, breaking free from cycles of destruction. Under the light of new stars on Xylos-7, hope radiates for a new horizon, where the true adventure has just begun.

SCULPTURED DESIRE

Living as the fifth daughter of a noble family, Amira found herself adrift in the fog of her home, neglected and overlooked by those she once called her own. Her days were spent in the solitude of the attic, a hidden oasis away from the bustling world outside. However, when the tumult of war erupts and she is thrust into the role of a truce offering between two formidable nations, she grapples with the uncertainty of surviving in a new kingdom known for its icy demeanor and ruthless nature. Will she navigate this foreign terrain and carve out a new existence she never fathomed? (Excerpt) "Clean it," Zyran commanded. "Yes, your Highness," the servant acknowledged with a respectful bow, ready to fetch the cleaning supplies. "Not you," Zyran interjected, causing the servant to freeze in confusion. "Her," he added, nodding in the direction of Anastasia, whose eyes widened in disbelief. Anastasia blinked rapidly, trying to process the situation. "Pardon?" she asked. "Clean the mess on the floor," Zyran instructed. The crowd started murmuring and Anastasia shifted uncomfortably on her knees. "That's the servant's job, not mine. Why should I? I don't think I understand what you are trying to say Prince Zyran. My father will never approve of this," Anastasia began only to be abruptly cut off by Zyran. "Don't make me repeat myself. I'm sure you wouldn't like it if I interfered with your task," Zyran warned. Anastasia's lips trembled as she fought to hold back her words. She knew Zyran's reputation for being ruthless, and she didn't want to make her situation any worse than it already was. "Get me the cleaning supplies," she instructed the servant, who was prepared to follow her command until Zyran interjected. "No one will help you," he declared. Anastasia's chest heaved with anger as she locked eyes with Amira, who was standing behind Zyran. She rose to her knees, intending to fetch the cleaning supplies herself, but Zyran stopped her once again. "Where do you think you're going?" he demanded. "To bring the bucket," she replied with a hint of annoyance, but she quickly reminded herself to remain composed. "I never asked you to stand up," Zyran stated. "Then how am I supposed to clean the floor?" she inquired. "Use your dress," Zyran replied. The onlookers in the crowd were visibly shocked, exchanging bewildered glances and murmurs as they witnessed the unfolding scene. Anastasia's cheeks turned crimson with embarrassment.

The Heavenly Miss Xiulan (Who Is Most Definitely Not a Boy)

In the 3,476th year of the Celestial Calendar, the Heavenly Emperor—whose divinity was rivaled only by his boredom—rewrote the Immortal Code of Gender Assignments during a particularly uneventful spring. According to Clause 89, Subsection Moonlight, Paragraph Absolutely-Not-Optional, any being born with an overwhelmingly high-yin spiritual constitution could only, by universal decree, be classified as female. It was simple. Efficient. Divine. Except… someone made a mistake. A mortal child was born deep within the darkest stretch of the Eternal Spirit Forest, surrounded by mist, mystery, and mushrooms that sang lullabies. He was bright-eyed, soft-voiced, high-yin… and very, very male. The thunder cracked the day he laughed. A white wolf howled. A snake offered him venom like warm milk. The trees whispered ancient songs. And the heavens? Well, they began preparing lightning bolts on standby—just in case someone down there got too clever and said something like: “Wait… is that a boy?” Boom. Thus began the most unusual cultivation tale in ten thousand realms. A tale of a child raised by beasts, mistaken for a goddess, blessed with yin that could stop hearts, and cursed with thunder that would smite anyone who dared question the Heavenly Code. This is the story of Xiulan. Or as the forest calls him: “Our beautiful, powerful, emotionally unstable daughter.” Or as heaven calls him: “ERROR 404: Gender Not Found.”

Price of Freedom

Novel PSA: Moved to Royal Road, and relaunching under Free Yet Chained on August 1st 2025 Freedom is a word undefinable by mankind. Chased indefinitely while the tunnel of freedom's infinite journey is constantly filled with rubble you need to destroy. According to the most extreme definition, one would have to be unbound by every law and concept making up the world. In Lukas’ case, he created his own definition — as any “elected” king would. Everything possible Lukas could’ve wanted was in his grasp by the time he passed into the afterlife, especially a honey-sweetened chocolate milkshake that he could barely attempt to consume. Family, health, island oasis, world peace, and the never-ending pursuit of novel stimuli. Nothing went according to plan, yet everything seemed to work out in the end. Yet the very second he passed, Lukas realized the one thing he knew would undeniably occur, failed to be given to him. Death… After two years of meandering the currents of life, he was finally able to get a grasp on reality, and rejected it. New world, new body, randomly “gifted” the power of flight after months of meditation — a perfect interpretation of freedom, and a restart he desperately did not want. What could possibly go wrong in a kingdom surrounded by walls? What was so dangerous that required walls reaching the heights of 600 feet to blanket any sense of horizon one could see? And what in the God’s is up with that reverse whirlpool this kingdom revolves around? —————————————— What to Expect: - Reincarnation MC(with consequences) - OP MC (choose to hide powers for good reason) - Slice of life engagements to give life to the world - Meaningful relationships - Dungeon Diving - Epic uses of magic!! - Blood, guts, and bones - Deep mysteries - Academy Arc(Volume 2) - No harem cuz we not about that life

El señor de la destruccion

Se suponía que era solo un juego… hasta que se convirtió en el infierno más adictivo y sangriento jamás creado. Año 2026. El mundo entero celebra la era dorada de la realidad virtual con el OASIS, un juego inmersivo que prometía libertad, gloria y riquezas infinitas. Pero la promesa fue una trampa. Carlos Fénix, su creador, encierra a más de 6 mil millones de jugadores y declara una nueva ley: si mueres en el juego, mueres en la vida real. Veinte años después, solo los más fuertes sobreviven. Entre ellos está Ethan Kenji Walker, alias Luinor Kha El, un huérfano marcado por el abandono, convertido en leyenda, guerrero oscuro, y amo absoluto de la magia nigromante. Su alma cargada de cicatrices, su corazón endurecido por la guerra… pero su espíritu indomable. Junto a otros 11 héroes, libra una guerra final contra el tirano que los condenó. Pero la victoria tiene un precio. Luinor elige el sacrificio. Mata al creador. Rompe el sistema. Y desaparece… ...Hasta que despierta. No en el mundo real. No en la muerte. Sino en Valhalla, su fortaleza, su creación… ahora convertida en un nuevo mundo donde los NPC parecen haber cobrado vida, donde los muertos han vuelto, y donde algo —más oscuro, más antiguo— se mueve entre los restos del juego que creían destruido. ¿Es este un segundo renacer o el verdadero comienzo del fin? Prepárate para una historia donde la épica se fusiona con el dolor, la fantasía con la traición, y el honor con la sangre. Este no es solo un isekai… Es el renacer de un dios de la destrucción en un mundo donde la muerte no es el final… sino el punto de partida.

Little Mushroom 小蘑菇

Author : Yi Shi Si Zhou 一十四洲 “Until the day humanity falls.” In the year 2020, Earth’s magnetic poles disappeared and humankind was nearly wiped out by cosmic radiation. Within the span of a hundred years, living creatures began to mutate and devour each other while the remaining humans, numbering in the tens of thousands, struggled bitterly in their man-made bases. In the Abyss, home to the mutated xenogenics, there lived a sentient little mushroom. Because it had been nourished by the blood and flesh of the deceased human An Ze, not only did it take on a similar-looking human form, but a similar name as well: An Zhe. An Zhe is determined to go to the human base to search for his spore, which had been harvested by humans. Once there, however, he faces the omnipresent risk of discovery and certain death as he tries to keep his non-human nature hidden from the Judges, whose responsibility is to inspect for and eliminate xenogenics like himself. And of all the Judges, Colonel Lu Feng is the most perceptive and merciless—as soon as he determines that someone is a xenogenic, he will execute that person on the spot. But An Zhe’s mutation goes undetected by Lu Feng’s eyes, and so a tale of humans and xenogenics unfolds… +× Hello readers! Thanks for checking out Little Mushroom! Little Mushroom is one of my favorites danmei which is one of the reasons I wanted to share it with everyone. I hope you enjoy it!! ×+

Well, that’s how it was supposed to go, but something unexpected came up, I would say they are going completely overboard as they tried to kill me. All I know is that I helped someone in dire need of it and now, I’m being chased by these scary people, I can hide pretty good, but they are looking for me thoroughly, and they are somehow tracking me, all I can do is keep running, or would that be jumping? Oh, it doesn’t matter!” "I heard something over there!" ‽ ‽ ‽ "Oh shoot they heard me moving, I have to get going now, bye whoever you are, I wish you a good life!" Follow a unique little mushroom in a fantasy world where both nature and civilization are at the top, neither dominating nor succumbing to the other. Nature, monsters, animals, as strong as ever, and the humans, orcs, elves, demons, you name it, are just as proficient, each in their own way. Monsters hunting, killing, dominating the others... the sentient races gathering and growing for survival and betterment in their lives, and in the middle of all that, is our small, uncanny, mushroom friend… well, lets see what happens, shall we?
