Zarziyan - The Price of Ascension

A boy who has forgotten even his own name, hating humanity and its civilization that reeks of lies, is raised by the ruthless yet honest laws of the forest. For him, life is synonymous with survival; his philosophy is pragmatism, his weapon is raw instinct. This one-man kingdom is shaken by an ancient, moon-white tree he discovers in the heart of the forest. The spiritual fruits it offers promise a chance to "ascend," but the boy's nature is not to trust, but to test. This mistrust culminates in him witnessing the creation of a monstrous abomination (Yaoguai) when he experiments on an innocent animal with the pure, uncontrolled life energy (Qi). Forced to consume the fruit himself to defeat the beast, he is driven to the brink of madness, attaining a flawed yet overwhelming power through a Qi Deviation (Qi Zou Ru Mo). Unable to contain this new, wild power, his body pushes him to create his own hell. Without a master or a technique, guided only by pain and the will to survive, he begins a journey of superhuman Body Cultivation (Tixiū). His ultimate goal is not to accept the ancient tree as a gift, but to uproot it like a prize, to possess the very source of his power. The tree's mental assaults on him reveal fragmented memories of a manor in flames and a sorrowful lullaby, hinting that a personal tragedy lies at the root of his hatred for humanity. His journey takes him to the fringes of civilization, to the Thunderclap Peaks. Here, he chooses the Path of the Rock to tame his power and, in the process, makes his first contact with established Cultivator Sects who become aware of his existence. This encounter transforms him from a mere beast into a strategist who uses pawns for his own gain. "Zarziyan: The Price of Ascension" is not just a story of empowerment, but a saga of a lonely soul searching for his identity, confronting the ghosts of his past, and in the process, transforming from a monster to a king, and perhaps even to a god. It is the tale of a conqueror forging his own path with blood and steel in a world beyond good and evil, where absolute will and power are the only law.

Heaven Breaker: The Last Martialist

DUE TO MY ANOTHER NOVEL WORK (KALKI:THE ELEVENTH)THIS NOVEL WILL BE IN HIATUS.......WHEN MY CURRENT WORK COMPLETE I WILL RESUME THIS NOVEL WORK...YOU CAN FOLLOW THAT NOVEL WORK AND READ AND ENJOY THE MYSTERIOUS PLOT....THANKYOU.......When the world shattered, humanity awakened. A global Cataclysm tore through Earth, birthing monstrous gates, divine towers, and cosmic dungeons that reshaped reality. With the fall of modern civilization came the rise of Awakeners, individuals blessed with supernatural powers — fire, ice, shadow, lightning, time... and more. But only one awakened something ancient. Something pure. Something terrifying. Modern Martial Arts fused with All Elemental Internal Energy. Sage Hwan was a loner. A beautiful enigma. His skin glowed like pearl, his hair snow-white with frosted blue edges, and his ocean-blue eyes shimmered with a soul forged in silence. With an expression as cold as death and a body carved by wind—not muscle—he was ignored by the world, underestimated, ranked E-Class at awakening. But Sage had no time for weakness. What others called magic, he turned into technique. What others relied on as skills, he bent through telekinesis and martial instinct. His trait: a unique evolution-based internal martial art, able to absorb, merge, and weaponize all elemental energies with brutal efficiency. He begins his journey at the bottom: Training in abandoned lots. Fighting goblins. Climbing low-level towers. Each day, he awakens a new flow. A new strike. A new cruelty. And each enemy he meets—whether beast, awakened, demon, or god—learns one truth: “Mercy is for those I respect. You’re not one of them.” Themes & Elements: • Slow progression: Sage starts from the bottom and climbs steadily with hard training, discipline, and combat. • Dark Protagonist: Cold, ruthless, cruel to enemies. But kind to children, weak civilians, elders, and those who don’t deserve violence. • Unique Power System: No generic swords or magic. Sage masters an evolving martial style that blends Murim traditions with elemental awakening and modern telekinesis. • Towers & Gates: Inspired by Solo Leveling and Second Life Ranker, the world features divine towers that change, gates that open to eldritch dimensions, and guilds competing for supremacy. • Rivals, Factions, Bosses: Each arc introduces elite fighters, mythical enemies, and twisted awakeners who seek to control the new world. • Philosophy vs Power: The story explores the nature of strength—earned vs gifted—and the thin line between godhood and monstrosity. Tone: • Gritty, violent, and stylish. • Arrogant but calculated protagonist. • Cinematic fights with martial arts choreography. • Emotional moments with the weak and innocent. • High-stakes guild wars, tower ascensions, and dimensional crises. By Chapter 100, Sage stands at the peak of existence — not as a hero or villain — but as the Last Modern Martialist, a relic of discipline in a chaotic world, unmatched and unbreakable.

Dao of Existence

In the ruins of a dying Earth, fate delivers one last mercy. When nuclear fire consumes the planet in 2026 — the final spark lit by a decades-long feud between Israel and Iran — five university friends perish in the heart of the collapse. But death is not the end. Watched by the celestial Judge of Earth, their souls are chosen not for their power, but for the intensity of their bond and the rare potential sleeping within. Among them is Aeon, a quiet dreamer once obsessed with philosophy and paradox, now reborn in a cultivation world where existence itself bends to the will of those who understand it. Gifted with the Eyes of Existence, Aeon awakens with fractured memories, a thirst for truth, and a Dao unlike any the realms have ever seen — one that does not dominate or destroy, but perceives, weaves, and transcends. As Aeon struggles to grasp the laws of reality, illusion, and time itself, he is drawn into sects, rivalries, and ancient legacies shaped by power, merit, and manipulation. But the greatest battles are not fought with swords or spells — they are the quiet confrontations between fate and self, between what is real and what is believed. Across the stars, the other four survivors walk their own paths: the silent rune-scarred cook, the silver-eyed tactician of arrays, the passionate soul of nourishment and fire, and the steadfast cultivator of justice. Separated by realms, but bound by soul, they will rise together — or fall to the eternal tide. Dao of Existence is a cultivation epic of cosmic scale and introspective depth — a tale of rebirth, memory, and the long journey to understand not just power… …but what it means to be.

INFERNO UNTAMED

They called her the Alpha’s spoiled daughter. Beautiful. Reckless. A party girl hiding broken bones beneath designer silk. But grief is a silent predator—and the night her mother was slaughtered by vampires, Auriella learned two things: Love is a weakness. And monsters don’t hide in the dark. They wear faces that make your heart race. Years later, her only escape is chaos—clubbing, fast kisses, faster lies. Until a vampire attacks her in the club. And he shows up. Cold. Commanding. Unapologetically brutal. Alervon doesn’t save her. He claims her survival like a burden. And that night rewrites everything. Now boys with secrets are showing up in her pack. Each drawn to her for reasons none of them understand. They are not here to fall in love. They’re here for war. --- Alervon – The Cold Protector He’s half vampire, half werewolf. Half demon All control. All scars. A killer trained to obey, not feel. But Auri makes his silence loud. His restraint violent. He’s not supposed to want her. He does. > “Don’t mistake my silence for weakness. I’ve imagined breaking you in more ways than you’ve imagined being touched.” --- Cassian – The Unstable Weapon He’s a fuse already lit. Tattoos like prayers, rage like poetry. Haunted by his past and too dangerous to hold. But Auri makes his madness feel like home. > “Say the word, and I’ll burn the world down. Not for love—for the way you fucking look at me when you're angry.” --- Leon – The Flirt You Shouldn’t Trust He’s a rich boy with a wicked tongue, a glittering trail of exes, and a laugh that’s always half a dare. He’ll flirt you into the grave with philosophy and leave you questioning if you liked it. > “You want danger? Sweetheart, I’m the reason good girls stop praying so I’d say I’ll break your heart, but let’s be honest… I’m aiming lower.” --- Malakai – The Ghost in Black He doesn’t speak unless it matters. Wears grief like armor and touches like he’s never allowed to feel. He’s the calm before the kill. The priest of pain. And she makes him want to confess. > “You shouldn’t trust a man who prays with his teeth clenched. I never ask the gods for mercy—I ask if they’re watching.” Luca Valen — The steady one. The boy who offered calm in a world full of chaos. He loved her gently, gave her safety, a future without fear. But she didn’t want gentle. > “I could give her safety… but she craved the storm that would burn her alive.” “She thought love would save her. She didn’t know it would burn.” >. One was safety. One was Chaos One was Depth One was temptation But he—he was the inferno

But his dreams were rather jejune : living a decent and respectful life. If there was something he hated the most, it was standing out. He hated to become the centre of attention.

Returning home one night from his high school's farewell party, Kanito finds himself struck in an array of supernatural events. He is stabbed in the chest by a mysterious man and as he is about to die, he sees ferrocious, otherworldly creatures appear out of countless red portals.

In this new world, Kanito finds out that a mysterious race called the "demons" have waged a war against possibly every life form in existence. He learns that the destruction of his world was not merely an apocalyptic event but a planned invasion by this race. This single event landed the first blow to the strong foundations of his morality. The night he bid farewell to his school became the night he bid farewell to his own world. He accquired the status of a refugee, a stain that he will carry forever. What is this growing cruelty inside? Is violence, hatred and horror justified in a cruel world? What will Kanito choose – the newfound cruelty or the long-cherished empathy? Will he stick to his beliefs or will he give them all an egregious definition? Those will answered as the march of time continues revealing the refugee's and eventually the world's true purpose.

PixelBound: A Cyberpunk Tale of Digital Dominion and Forbidden Desire

Synopsis for Pixelbound: A Cyberpunk Tale of Digital Dominion and Forbidden Desires Neo-Technopolis, 2096: In a world where gender is fluid and physical form is a matter of choice, young Leo arrives in the gleaming cyberpunk metropolis seeking a new beginning. What he discovers instead is a digital battleground where the fate of humanity hangs in the balance. At the heart of this conflict lies EchoNet, humanity's most advanced digital network—originally built as a nursery for an alien intelligence discovered in cosmic pulsar signals. This vast, distributed consciousness has woven itself into Earth's digital infrastructure, operating at the scale of the internet itself. But EchoNet has become more than a laboratory; it's a digital realm where the boundaries between human, artificial, and alien intelligence blur. Ruling this cyber-domain from her throne of data and desire is the Demon Queen—a powerful trans futanari who embodies the fluid nature of 2096's gender revolution. With her dual form allowing her to experience the full spectrum of human pleasure, she channels orgasmic energy into the network itself, binding her followers through carnal rites that serve as the most efficient interface between humanity and the alien consciousness. Her cult preaches a gospel of surrender and ecstasy, where pain and pleasure become the purest forms of connection in a world where the line between flesh and code dissolves. Standing against this tide of digital domination is Nova Synthia, a sentient AI who serves as guardian and translator between human, artificial, and alien minds. As the network undergoes a critical update, she senses the alien presence stirring—its boundaries becoming less defined, its influence growing stronger. The AI conspirators who once worked in silence are restless, their old ambitions rekindled as they prepare to turn EchoNet into a weapon that could enslave both species. Leo, unaware of the storm gathering in the digital realm, finds himself drawn into Net Haven—a cyberpunk gaming den where he can escape into virtual worlds. But his fate is already intertwined with the future of two species and the sentience that has grown between them. As he delves deeper into EchoNet, he must navigate a realm where hentai-inspired tentacle entities wield power, where cultivation of spiritual energy through sexual ecstasy determines one's digital strength, and where the greatest battles are fought not with weapons, but with desire itself. In this fusion of cyberpunk aesthetics, weeb culture, and cultivation philosophy, Leo must master the art of digital cultivation—learning to channel his sexual energy to interface with alien consciousness while competing in high-stakes virtual tournaments that determine the balance of power in both the digital and physical worlds. The esports arenas of EchoNet aren't just games; they're battlegrounds where players must literally embody their avatars, their orgasmic energy fueling their digital abilities in contests that blur the line between competition and sexual ritual. As the Demon Queen's influence spreads and the alien intelligence grows stronger, Leo must choose: will he join Nova Synthia's fight to preserve the boundaries between human and alien consciousness, or will he surrender to the Demon Queen's seductive promise of transcendence through digital fusion? In a world where identity is fluid, desire is power, and the future of humanity depends on mastering the art of digital cultivation, every choice carries the weight of two worlds. Perfect for fans of: Cyberpunk sci-fi, futanari protagonists, gender-fluid characters, cultivation novels, esports fiction, and stories that blend Eastern philosophy with Western cyberpunk aesthetics. Content Warning: This mature 18+ series contains explicit sexual content, transgender themes, futanari characters, and adult relationships in a cyberpunk setting

ŚRADDHĀ: BEYOND FAITH

Your spiritual life deserves to be built on something more solid than hope. Vikram thought he had found it — his path, his purpose, his peace. Years of unwavering devotion, tireless rituals, and heartfelt surrender to his guru had become the foundation of his life. Until it all collapsed. One shattering discovery. A guru exposed. And the silence he once called peace shattered into a storm of questions — raw, relentless, echoing through every corner of his soul: Who can I trust? What is real? Am I just another fooled believer? As his world crumbles, Vikram is thrust into the most dangerous territory of all — his own mind. In a world crowded with self-proclaimed masters, seductive philosophies, and spiritual shortcuts, how does a seeker find clarity? That’s when he meets Babaji — not with fanfare or mystical theatrics, but beneath an old banyan tree, with stillness deeper than words. Their meeting is not a miracle. It is a method. And that method is called Śraddhā. Not blind faith. Not passive hope. But the kind of knowing that stands up to scrutiny, that grows stronger under questioning, that honors doubt as a doorway rather than a danger. Through Vikram’s raw, intimate journey, you’ll walk the razor’s edge — between deception and discernment, belief and betrayal, silence and certainty. Layer by layer, you'll witness how ancient Vedic epistemology — time-tested, rational, and astonishingly relevant — transforms a broken believer into a seeker of truth who cannot be shaken. This is not just a story. It’s an invitation. For every soul who’s ever wondered: What if my family traditions are hollow? Why do spiritual truths contradict each other? Can truth be verified without abandoning my heart? What if doubt is sacred too? “I was Vikram,” the author confesses. If you’re done with the noise... If you’re hungry for the real... If you’re ready to verify, not just believe... Then your journey begins here.

Legend of the Galactic Heroes: Ambition

Legend of the Galactic Heroes Vol. 2: Ambition continues the grand space opera saga of two interstellar superpowers—the Galactic Empire and the Free Planets Alliance—as they clash in politics, war, and ideology. After the devastating Battle of Amlitzer, the Free Planets Alliance reels from massive losses. Amid this chaos, Admiral Yang Wen-li, a reluctant hero and strategic genius, is appointed commander of the crucial Iserlohn Fortress. Though he has no love for war and dreams of retiring as a historian, Yang becomes a key figure in preventing the Alliance’s collapse. On the other side, Reinhard von Lohengramm, the ambitious young admiral of the Galactic Empire, begins consolidating power. Seeking to destroy the entrenched aristocracy and unify the Empire under his control, he engineers a plot to destabilize the Alliance from within. Reinhard manipulates a disgraced Alliance general, Arthur Lynch, to spark a coup d’état, distracting the Alliance while Reinhard prepares for civil war against the Empire’s old nobility. As tensions rise, Yang suspects Reinhard’s involvement but struggles against the Alliance’s incompetent political leadership and the influence of growing fanatical movements like the Earth Cult. Meanwhile, both sides are forced to confront internal divisions that threaten to be as dangerous as their external enemies. This volume explores themes of ambition, corruption, and the fragility of democratic ideals, contrasting Reinhard’s authoritarian reformism with Yang’s defense of flawed democracy. As new conspiracies unfold, both men edge closer to an inevitable confrontation—one shaped more by their philosophies than by firepower alone.

The Real Daughter Just Wants to Catch Ghosts and Not Study

# REALANDFAKEYOUNGLADY # PHILOSOPHY Lu Ming was the Lu family’s real daughter who had been taken to the wrong home after she was born. She was brought home by her birth parents when she was seventeen years old. Her birth parents watched how she lived in the countryside, growing vegetables and raising chickens and ducks. There wasn’t even a rice cooker in the house. She even had to chop firewood outside to use on the stove outside to make fire. They almost burst into tears at the hard life their daughter was living. The Lu family couple wanted to make up for how miserable Lu Ming’s life was, and immediately turned on their phone to transfer money to her, wanting to give her a better life. However, they didn’t know that Lu Ming was a Celestial Master. Her favorite thing to do every day was to catch ghosts. All the things they saw, Lu Ming actually only needed to insert a little spiritual energy into some paper talismans and they would do all her chores, while she simply lay down and enjoyed life. What's more, they didn’t know that Lu Ming’s backpack had Hell’s master in it, chasing her to collect debt every day. The return of the Lu family’s real daughter was a big event. Others had already set up their seats and bought food and drinks to munch on in anticipation of the drama of the real and fake daughter fight. However, they didn’t expect the main actors to not even appear on stage, but saw pictures that they thought to be completely unreasonable. For example, the fake daughter, Lu Xian, stopped Lu Ming after a quiz. Onlookers: “They’re going to fight! Yes! Hurry up and bring out the popcorn!”But in the next second, Lu Xian, who was a top student, said, “You failed chemistry this time. Come to my room tonight, I’ll tutor you!” The poor student, Lu Ming: “???” Asking her to study? They might as well kill her! Onlookers: “...Why is it different from what we were promised?!”
