Muchen Xing

In the mystical realm of ancient China, a legendary tale unfolds within the esteemed Xing Sect. At its core is Mu Chen, the prodigious son of the venerable Xiao Xing. Mu Chen's cultivation level had reached the impressive Grade Four, a testament to his diligent efforts and innate talent. However, it was not until his father, Xiao Xing, bestowed upon him the Divine Chun Artifact that Mu Chen's true potential began to unravel. This ancient relic, imbued with the essence of the heavens, significantly amplified Mu Chen's powers, catapulting him into a new realm of martial prowess. As fate would have it, the harmonious coexistence between the Xing Sect and other martial arts clans was disrupted by the ominous Swords Sect. With an air of superiority, the Swords Sect issued an ultimatum to the Xing Sect, demanding the surrender of their most treasured artifacts. Xiao Xing, unwilling to yield to such tyranny, valiantly confronted the Swords Sect, only to find himself overwhelmed and defeated. It was at this critical juncture that Mu Chen emerged, driven by filial piety and an unyielding determination to protect his father and the Xing Sect. As he grasped the Divine Chun Artifact, Mu Chen felt an extraordinary surge of energy course through his veins. The artifact, sensing its master's unyielding resolve, underwent a miraculous transformation, elevating Mu Chen's cultivation level by two grades in an instant. With his augmented powers, Mu Chen launched a formidable counterattack against the Swords Sect, sending shockwaves throughout the martial arts community. His name became synonymous with bravery and unparalleled martial prowess, as whispers of the Divine Chun Artifact and its extraordinary abilities began to circulate among the sects. Thus, Mu Chen's legend was born, as he embarked on a perilous journey to safeguard the Xing Sect, unravel the mysteries of the Divine Chun Artifact, and forge a path that would etch his name in the annals of history as one of the most revered martial arts heroes of all time.

Duality of Shadows

In a world where everyone is a slave, someone is born who cannot be controlled. At the same time, an unstoppable villain rises on a quest for revenge. But the truth is darker than he ever imagined, and now he must face an unbeatable enemy — including himself. *** Bruno was a young man born on Earth, the son of an influential modern Emperor. Despite having everything money could buy and receiving the best and most rigorous training to succeed his father, he chose the opposite path, defying his family’s ruthless rule. The price of his innocence? A merciless death and the complete erasure of his existence by the deity controlling his fate. On Earth, the law of the powerful was absolute; a slave could never rebel. But then, he wakes up again. He’s reborn in a world of cultivation, where freedom was promised to those strong enough to claim it. Now, he could soar like a free bird and carve his own destiny... or so he thought. The harsh reality of this new world soon showed him how insignificant he still was. He realized he had only changed masters. The freedom he sought was an illusion. The heavenly laws treated everyone as servants, and their rules were unbreakable. Bruno learned this bitter truth after losing everything that made him happy due to an unjust rule. But who was he to question? Hopeless, Bruno died... and was reborn as Alm, an unstoppable villain. With a soul poisoned by pain and vengeance, he sowed chaos across the universe. Planets were destroyed, countless lives taken, and his name became synonymous with terror. A hero rose to oppose him, wielding a sacred sword of hope. People from all corners of the universe united against Alm, raising their voices and weapons to stop the villain who defied the heavens. But Alm was no longer just fighting for revenge. He was challenging the heavenly laws that sought to control him, fighting fate and all living beings. And against all odds... the sacred sword shattered. The alliance of the entire universe was defeated. The villain won! Now, Alm found himself alone in the empty void of a dead universe, facing his own inner demons. Who could be more ruthless to him than himself? “What have I done?” At that moment, the doors of truth opened to him. Everyone was a puppet of a supreme figure, an entity that manipulated minds and even the heavenly laws. “I will find you, no matter where you are!” Thus, the last emissary of the true Heaven’s Will awakened. Alm, who once only relied on his sheer will and rage, now had a system to guide him. But his opponent was an immortal existence, above even the heavens. The villain who destroyed an entire universe now faced a new beginning. He discovered that the universe he devastated was just a tiny grain of sand in an infinite cosmos, where countless other universes existed. And so begins the legendary tale of the villain’s rise... and the Sacred Round God? A strange Duality of Shadows existed within one person. But this time, he wouldn’t be alone. *** To clear up any potential confusion or frustration, here are some key points about the story. I’ll avoid major spoilers, but a few things will be revealed. You might find this concerning at first, but just check the book cover—it shows the main character and his only partner. She first appears at 10 years old, but rest assured, there’s no inappropriate content or early romance. At around 13, SHE starts developing feelings for the protagonist, but he doesn’t respond until she’s an adult. With her determined personality, she tries to seduce him at 17/18, but it doesn’t work. Their relationship only happens much later. The book has nods to other works, with my own spin on them, and focuses on avoiding elements I find problematic in other stories. Lastly, the beautiful book cover was commissioned and created by HDIArt.

Legacy of the Tarot (Laoyon)

Welcome to Laoyon, a realm where adventure knows no bounds, and danger lurks in every shadow. This is no ordinary journey—it is a test of survival, where warriors are forged in the crucible of the unknown, and the strongest rise to uncover secrets lost to time. The Tarot World stands at the precipice of change. The Ancient forces—both benevolent and malevolent—stir within its depths. Hidden civilizations, forgotten ruins, and creatures beyond mortal comprehension lie in wait. From towering fortresses overrun by monstrous hordes to labyrinthine dungeons teeming with relics of the past, every step into Laoyon is a challenge—and an opportunity. But Laoyon is not merely a place of peril; it is a living mystery, an enigma woven into the fabric of the Tarot World itself. Forged by three Arcanas through the Power of Creation granted by The Prideful Magician, Laoyon has endured the passage of over 50 thousand years. What was once a mere concept has now become an ever-shifting realm—one of boundless mysteries, perilous challenges, and untapped power, waiting for those brave enough to uncover its secrets. It is said that those who enter will be tested in ways beyond mere combat—that the realm itself recognizes the strength of one's spirit and the depth of one's resolve. Some whisper that Laoyon was once home to an ancient civilization, long vanished, leaving behind cryptic messages and lost knowledge scattered among its ruins. Others believe it to be a forgotten battleground where forces beyond mortal comprehension once clashed, their echoes still lingering in the air, waiting to be unearthed. For those who dare to step forward, Laoyon offers a path unlike any other. You may find yourself traversing dense, fog-covered jungles where unknown creatures stalk from the shadows. You may uncover grand, abandoned cities, their stone halls whispering of a past lost to time. Or perhaps, in the depths of the realm, you will encounter beings unlike any seen before—guardians of an ancient order, protectors of forbidden knowledge, or remnants of the first civilization that once thrived within Laoyon, their presence still lingering in the echoes of history. The brave few who enter this realm will find themselves tested not only against savage beasts and legendary warriors but also against the very forces of nature itself. The storms here do not simply bring rain—they bring illusions, visions of the past, and creatures that slip between the cracks of reality. The rivers do not simply flow—they shift with the tides of magic, carrying secrets to those willing to listen. And deep beneath the earth, in the cavernous ruins of an age long forgotten, the true heart of Laoyon lies waiting to be discovered. But be warned: Laoyon does not welcome all. It is said that only those with the will to defy fate may survive within its depths. Those who hesitate will be lost. Those who falter will be consumed. And those who seek only power without understanding the cost may find themselves facing something far worse than death. This is a world where destiny is shaped by courage, wit, and the relentless pursuit of truth. Whether you seek untold riches, the thrill of battle, or the unraveling of mysteries buried in time, Laoyon offers a journey unlike any other. Here, the strong grow stronger, the wise become legends, and the reckless... vanish without a trace. Prepare yourself for an odyssey of danger and discovery. The portal stands open, the path is uncertain, and the legends of old whisper your name. Will you dare to step forward and claim your place in history? The adventure begins now.

My world-tree system

We were a peaceful people living in harmony with nature in the vast lands of Lyréanor, but this peace was short-lived when our people were defeated by the dark elves, an ancient people even older than this world. It is said that they arrived in Lyréanor by boat and since their arrival, chaos has been unleashed. Proud of their obscure power, derived from dark rituals, they have raised gigantic armies of monsters whose name is synonymous with terror: ‘Obscurus’. They went on the rampage, and everywhere they went the grass didn't grow back, life died and disintegrated. Seven, there were seven. The seven dark elves known as the Lords of the Apocalypse. A single gesture from them was enough to strike us all down, a single gesture from one of them was enough to decimate us in blood and terror. And as I, Foster, contemplate the macabre scene before me, the bloodied and deformed bodies of my fellow elfes beings, and as death grips my soul, a strange sign appeared before me. [Ding...
