Molten streams of gold descend from the skies, searing with heat and littered with skeletal remains. The Southern Kingdom's dynasty has reached its end, and how could the rooster on the throne ever be seen as a phoenix? The butcher's blade has been honed to razor sharpness, yet the former martial arts titan still clings tightly to the golden chains, refusing to let go.

The sky-reaching tree burns with an eternal flame; those who revere nature kneel in submission, chanting their faith, yet unable to raise their heads to gaze upon the everlasting blaze. In the wilderness, multitudes fervently chant, "The mind triumphs over matter," unaware that shackles have already tightened around their necks.

Years later, will it recall its frail self on that rainy night? 【This book is not an invincible book, the combat power is constant and very stable (I have a relatively basic attribute setting for the characters that appear, so there will be no collapse of combat power in the later stage.

Or will she finally succeed in running away from his grasp. Why her? *** excerpt*** Arabella felt her wrists stung as the shackle around her wrist jingled from the sudden pull. She then met with the icy red eyes that brood down upon her appearance, drinking into every inch of her figure as if he was studying her, even to how those breaths escaped her lips. "I thought we had bonded over the days we have spent together, Bella," he sang, his bright scarlet eyes betraying the singing tone he had used as it had grown so dark and filled with anger. "Yet you left so quickly as soon as I opened the castle gate." Bella gritted her teeth, her eyes glaring at him as she defiantly shook his hand off her face, "I can remind you if you have forgotten it, Your Majesty, I am kept here against my wish." Cassius' smile faded as he stared at her. The sudden pin-drop silence filled her nerves with tension as she found his smileless face the most terrifying sight. She had always known his fearsome side however, it felt scarier tonight. Bella tried to endure how loud her heart had raced against her chest, gathering her breaths together even though it remained shallow in his presence. "So cold," he muttered, his tone trying to tease her, but she could see the raw anger crossing his eyes. "You cannot run from me. Not after what we've done. Not after what you promised." Her heart faltered. She wasn't supposed to stay in this castle; she knew that the royal palace was filled with those vampire monsters who would kill for their desire, simply to have fun. She knew she should never give her heart to any of these monsters, and she had once believed she would never. But that was until Cassius came. She had made that promise because her heart had betrayed her, and she wished that she had never uttered that promise. Promises she had made to him on the call of love. Yet deep within her, a part of her still crave for him. "You're not the first one I have broken my promises with," she gritted her teeth and looked up at him, "I broke my promise the way you broke yours first, isn't it fair?" "Fair? Then was everything a lie, Arabella?" he murmured, his hands cupping her face, forcing her to meet his eyes. "You were mine the moment you entered my castle. And you will be mine until the very end." She gulped as his eyes shone underneath the moonlight, his gaze unforgiving over her, exposing his wild hunger. Her breath caught, her pulse quickening. "A human and a vampire should have never stayed together. They were all right." "I don't care," he spoke through his clenched jaw. "You're going to remain here by my side forever."

Journey of the Fate Destroying Emperor

After being reincarnated in a world of Gods, Demons, and Great Emperors, Wang Wei embarks on a journey to bear Heaven Mandate, proves the Dao, and proclaims himself a Great Emperor--a Supreme Being that overlooked Myriad World and Races. However, his Dao involves despising fate and its encompassing glory. So what awaits our protagonist on his journey full of vicissitudes to defy and even control fate? While he controls the fate of countless races and worlds, is fate playing with him? Can he escape the very shackles of fate that he controls? Better Synopsys: After an unknown cosmic accident that enveloped the Earth, Wang Wei was reincarnated into a magical world of spiritual cultivation. This world was composed of powerful Demons, cunning and brutal Devils, ruthless and indifferent Gods, detached and ethereal Immortals. More Importantly, Great Emperors--Supreme Beings that stand above everyone and everything, even life and death itself. Despite being born in one of the most powerful sects in the world, Wang Wei was placed under tremendous pressure when so many expectations were placed on him by his sect due to the fact they have not cultivated a Great Emperor for countless millennia--an act which threatened the fundamental status of his family, friends, and sect. On top of that, Wang Wei was not one of the chosen few of this world that was granted special gifts by Heaven, thus further aggravating his circumstances. However, he did not retreat in the face of adversity. With the mindset that “If Heaven does not give me, I shall take it for myself”, Wang Wei begins to plan his rise to the top with a brilliant tactical mind and the help of his mysterious soul so that one day he will become a Great Emperor that not only control his fate but the fate of all lives in existence.

Sacrilege Ascension: I Level Up By Defying Gods

In a world where the Sevengod Church with an iron fist, Oliver, a downtrodden acolyte struggling to survive, uncovers a terrifying truth: the gods are long dead, their thrones consumed by madness. The Church’s “Divine Circuits” aren’t holy—they are cursed shackles, binding humanity to the ravenous, decaying deities they claim to serve. In reality, humans are mere sacrifices, fed to the gods to prolong their fading existence. Armed with the Blasphemy Codex System, Oliver treads a dangerous path. Each time he desecrates a god or slays a hypocritical priest, Oliver draws power from the Codex, strengthening himself with every heresy. The so-called divine beings of holy love? The great, selfless clergy? The beloved by all? Let me expose their true nature, and show everyone the maggots crawling beneath the shiny facade! This is what Oliver is doing, this is how Oliver grows stronger! When the last gilded lie peels away in his bloodstained hands, Oliver beholds the cosmos' cruel jest - those celestial parasites never craved worship, but the exquisite terror in mortal eyes. Now the Codex whispers of dead stars reconquering their thrones, its pages bleeding with revelations that could either forge a new pantheon from apostate flesh, or drown all creation in the gods' terminal scream. Will his blade carve salvation from their writhing carcasses, or merely crown him the most beautiful monster in this danse macabre?

Vessel of Shadows

After losing everything, Daron Lamb is consumed by grief and guilt, until he's recruited by the Special Magic Force, an elite unit protecting the balance between magical and non-magical worlds. Together, they uncover a secret organization determined to free the God of Chaos, a force sealed away to protect humanity. As Daron investigates, he uncovers a chilling link between the group and his tragic past. Driven by revenge, he joins forces with his new allies to stop them. But as the truth behind the organization’s motives begins to surface, Daron is forced to confront a disturbing possibility: freeing the God of Chaos, though orchestrated by his enemies, might not bring the destruction he's been led to believe. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Daron's gaze drifted downward to his chest. Below, the stark contrast of a faint blue light against his white skin caught his eye—a soft glow emanating from his own chest. It softly pulsed, a gentle luminescence that ebbed and flowed with the rhythm of his own heartbeat. Baffled, he just sat there for a few moments, observing. As his fingers touched the source of light, he was surprised to find that everything felt normal, as if it had always been this way. It was like nothing had changed at all. Daron's eyes widened in disbelief when he noticed a strange black liquid seeping into the wounds on his chest—a substance like ink, flowing from within him. It moved with purpose, filling the gaps left by the fat butcher and stanching the flow of blood that had painted his skin red. "By the gods," he gasped, the sight both unsettling and miraculous. The black liquid quickly solidified, forming scars as black as the night sky. His eyes remained fixed on the eerie scene, his breath steadying to a normal rhythm. He was a magician now… it felt strange. He didn't feel particularly different. Sure, a mysterious substance had just mended his broken skin, but other than that, he didn't feel like he could do anything… new, anything special. He stretched out his hand, trying to summon a sharp wind to cut down his shackles. Nothing happened. Next, a flame, to burn down his cell. Nothing happened. “Figures,” he said to himself. “Why would it be easy?” ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ For news and feedback, feel free to join the Vessel of Shadows Discord: https://discord.gg/dmCYCKNwx7

Now, as a mere shadow of his former self, Lysian wakes in a world that seems both familiar and foreign. His mind retains the memories of his past life, the knowledge of power, manipulation, and war. But his body is weak, vulnerable—his former strength nothing more than a distant echo.

Each move he makes is calculated, each alliance fragile, and each betrayal closer than he can anticipate. But the greatest threat Lysian faces is not just the world around him. It is the fate that binds him, the forces beyond his control that seem determined to shape him into something he no longer wishes to be. His past life was a cycle of ambition and downfall, but this time, Lysian will not let fate dictate his future. "Regressor of Light Son: Bound by Fate, Reborn in Shadows" is a story of ambition, manipulation, and survival in a world where every decision could lead to destruction.

The Ember Of Eternity

In a world unraveling under the weight of forgotten wars and dying gods, Ashen Dain embarks on a perilous journey that could shape the future of all existence. A man driven by the unyielding thirst for immortality, Dain has long abandoned the constraints of human emotion and morality. He seeks the Ember of Eternity—a mysterious and ancient force that holds the promise of eternal life and ultimate power. To Dain, the pursuit of immortality is the only way to escape the cruel grip of mortality that shackles him, and he will stop at nothing to achieve it. The Ember of Eternity, however, is not easily attained. Its resting place lies within the heart of the Cinderfrost Cavern, a labyrinth of fire and ice where few have ventured and even fewer have returned. Legends say the Ember grants not just eternal life, but god-like power, and yet its power is bound to a devastating price—one that has shattered the lives of those who have sought it before. Along his journey, Dain encounters those whose lives have been irrevocably altered by the very forces he seeks to control. Soren Arinthal, a once-great sage twisted by his own failure to master the Ember, warns Dain of the cost that awaits him. Kaelen Vireth, a fallen hero seeking redemption, sees Dain as both a reflection of his past mistakes and a threat to the fragile world he still hopes to save. Meanwhile, Lyra Solen, a powerful sorceress with ties to an ancient order, becomes an unwilling ally, determined to stop Dain from unleashing the Ember’s destructive potential. As Dain moves closer to the Ember, he crosses paths with Raxos Daerith, a rival king who would do anything to claim the power for himself. The world is already on the brink of chaos, and Dain’s quest threatens to tip the balance entirely. With each step toward his goal, Dain finds himself entangled in a web of betrayal, power struggles, and ancient secrets that force him to confront not only his pursuit of immortality, but the darkness within his own soul. Guided by the cryptic warnings of Elyndra, the Oracle of Flame, Dain is forced to question the very nature of his quest. Is immortality truly worth the cost? As he draws closer to the Ember, he discovers that the price of eternal life is not just the sacrifice of his humanity, but the destruction of everything he holds dear. The path to eternity may be lined with the ashes of his own soul. The Ember of Eternity is a sweeping fantasy epic that explores themes of power, sacrifice, and the inherent cost of seeking immortality. It is a tale of ambition gone awry, where the pursuit of god-like power forces its seekers to confront the limits of their humanity, and where the question of what makes life worth living is answered only in the flames of destruction.

Major Project: Tartarus

Tartarus, The world sculpted by celestial hands, the angels descended from the far reaches of the cosmos, bearing the edicts of the Creator. They came as guardians, bringing order to the boundless depths of Tartarus. Yet, beneath the veneer of divine law, deception festers—an Evil unseen, a whisper in the dark that even the great entities fails to perceive. From the flow of time itself, a man is sent—a mortal from Earth, chosen by the Angels of Time. His purpose? To stand against the encroaching catastrophe that lurks unseen, waiting to consume Tartarus. But he does not seek the mantle of a hero. Shackled by scars of the past, he rejects the fate thrust upon him. Yet fate is relentless, and the tide of destiny drags him forth, forcing him into the role he so despises. To be a hero in Tartarus is not to wield a sword against mere foes, but to unravel a truth buried beneath epochs of lies. The histories recorded in sacred tomes are but illusions, their words spun to shroud an unspeakable secret. And as he walks the path of revelation, he glimpses the echoes of worlds long lost, of ages that the gods have conspired to erase. But knowledge is a double-edged blade. The deeper he delves, the clearer it becomes—this is no mere deception of a single world, but a tapestry of falsehood woven into the fabric of the cosmos itself. What lies beyond the veil is not simply the truth of Tartarus, but the truth of existence. He will bring light to the darkness. But the darkness is endless. May Theo rest peacefully.
