MOUNTAIN SITTING IMMORTAL (MSI) A conduit of the great Dao happened to enter the grotto heaven called Earth. No one had been able to take ownership of this conduit for many years until Marvin came into contact with it.  Marvin met the requirement to use the conduit. This allowed him to begin his journey towards immortality.  The journey begins from transcending the first mortal coil at Body Forging to transcending the second at Energy Gathering, passing through the subsequent mortal coils, and hopefully to becoming a true immortal with eternal life. But the conduit is far more useful than helping a dying business tycoon gain another lease at life. It is also a conduit of great power.  This power and many more will be his as long as he continues to sit on his mountain and grows the mountain into a colossus. The mountain will bring him to greater heights and greater power.  This is the story of the Mountain Sitting Immortal. DISCORD: https://discord.com/invite/Ku2gqaHz

An international high school teenager named Shouichi Desterling often idled away his time, letting his thoughts run rampant with a wild imagination. However, those intrusive thoughts were well-contained within his mind. Following the recent passing of his father, Shouichi was transferred back to his hometown, Kurohashi, to live with his long-separated mother — the only family he had left. Kurohashi is a secluded small town, surrounded by mountains on all sides. Despite its seemingly ordinary appearance and a minuscule population of just 5,000, the village harbours an oddity: the only way in or out is via a gloomy steel bridge. Not long after his arrival, Shouichi quickly bonded with his classmates, experiencing the semblance of a normal high school life and even finding love. Yet, amid this ordinary existence, he began seeing and feeling inexplicable “things.” Were these strange occurrences mere tricks of his mind, or was there something truly sinister lurking in the shadows? As events unfolded, Shouichi found himself increasingly unable to suppress his mounting insanity and the dark urges creeping into his thoughts. Each day, the air around him grew denser and heavier, as though the very atmosphere bore the weight of an unseen menace. ***[Content Warning: Later on in the story, tragedy will intensify, not suitable for the faint of heart. i.e. NTR, psychological manipulation, trauma, etc.] ------------------------------------------------------- Visit the Link below for the Cast Card with a short description/ the Character Drawings/ Chapter Complimentary Images: patreon.com/Joeing_25 Currently contained: Shouichi, Ayane, Shinji, Emi, Momo, Misaki ------------------------------------------------------- ~ Thank you for reading! ~

When a mountain comes to life, awakening its consciousness, it takes on another form—a Mountain Spirit. And that’s me reborn with extraordinary Divine powers. Want to know what these divine powers are? Well, one of them allows me to accelerate herb growth—up to one hundred times faster! Impressive, right? But wait, there’s more! I also possess a ‘golden finger’—which is ‘Space-Time’ system that lets me fish for lost techniques, weapons, pill formulas, and other treasures from the rivers of time and space. With these at my disposal, I’m sure to become stronger, at least stronger than the beautiful sect master who claims my mountain as her personal retreat and constantly drag me into her matters. It’s not an easy life, but no need to worry! I’m not just any spirit—I’m a human spirit born from a mountain, which means I have an extraordinary talent for cultivation. To top it off, my system was generous enough to grant me a divine cultivation technique right from the start. There’s just one tiny problem: it’s a dual cultivation technique, and I need a partner to cultivate it. So, I had no choice but to convince the sect master’s stunning disciple to help me out. I mean, it’s not like I’m after her gorgeous long legs, her curvaceous thighs, or her… well, you get the point. I’m just a humble cultivator trying to grow stronger by any means necessary. If only she’d run into some trouble, so I could swoop in and save the day. That would make things a lot easier for me… but alas, life is never that simple. Still, I’ll find a way. With my Space-Time system, my mountain’s power, and a little charm, I’ll outgrow this mountain and surpass everyone—even the sect master. And maybe, just maybe, I’ll enjoy the beauties along the way. *** No NTR, No Yuri, No Yaoi *** LinkTree- https://linktr.ee/Around_The_Moon Discord- https://discord.gg/zTgR9VFduX

In the mystical realm of Eldoria, a world nestled beneath the great, towering peaks of the Silverthorn Mountains, ancient secrets and untold magic thrive. The inhabitants of Eldoria, a vibrant tapestry of humans, elves, and dwarves, live in harmony, drawing their strength from the enchanted ley lines that flow beneath the earth. However, a tremor has disturbed the peace—a rift has opened, casting dark shadows over the once untouched valleys. The story follows Aric, a young cartographer with dreams of exploring the world beyond his village of Lynwood. Fascinated by the legends surrounding the Silverthorn Mountains, he often finds himself daydreaming about the hidden wonders that lie below their snow-capped summits. One fateful evening, while mapping the hidden caverns that surround Lynwood, he stumbles upon a hidden entrance that leads him deep into the heart of the mountains. As Aric descends into the cavernous world below, he discovers a realm of luminescent flora and fauna that thrive in the subterranean light. Here, he meets Althea, a spirited elf with an affinity for nature, who guards the ancient knowledge kept within this hidden sanctuary. Together, they uncover the truth about the rift—a sinister force known as the Umbral Shadow has emerged, seeking to erode the natural balance of Eldoria. As Aric and Althea venture deeper into this enchanted world, they encounter mythical creatures: wise old dragons that breathe magic instead of fire, mischievous sprites that can shift forms, and ancient guardians bound to protect the secrets of their realm. With each friendship forged and challenge faced, Aric learns the value of courage, friendship, and the importance of preserving the harmony of nature. The journey intensifies as rumors spread of the Umbral Shadow rallying its forces in an attempt to harness the ley lines for its own dark purposes. Aric must rally the inhabitants of Eldoria, bridging the divides between the different races. With Althea by his side, they inspire the dwarves of Ironclad Forge and the elves of Silverleaf Hollow to stand against the impending doom. In a climactic showdown, the heroes confront the Umbral Shadow in the Crystal Cavern, where the ley lines converge. Using their newfound alliances and the ancient magic of the land, Aric and Althea lead a united front to reclaim their world. In the throes of battle, Aric realizes that the map he has been creating is not merely a guide to the land, but a tapestry woven with the fates of all its inhabitants. Ultimately, the power of unity, courage, and hope triumphs over darkness. As the rift closes and peace is restored, Aric emerges from the mountains, his heart filled with a sense of purpose. He returns to Lynwood, not just as a cartographer, but as a hero destined to share the wonders and stories of Eldoria with generations to come. Friendship, unity, courage, the balance of nature, and the importance of understanding one another across differences. In "Below the Mountain," adventure beckons under the earth, and young heroes discover that true magic lies not only in power but in the bonds we forge along the way.

# HAPPY ENDING # 1V1 # DAILYFAMILYLIFE # POWERFULMINISTER # PURE PROTAGONISTS In his previous life, Xue Yan was a powerful minister. When he returned to seven years of age, he no longer wanted to be one anymore. He simply wanted to settle down in this ravine, be a farmer like his brothers, and grow crops like ordinary people, so that he wouldn’t end up as he did in his previous life. In that life, he had all the power in the world, but his family was not fated to have a good ending. Unexpectedly, his father picked up a baby girl. She was great in all aspects except one. She couldn’t be allowed to sneak out alone. Otherwise, she would bring back a great general one time, and bring back a prince with a different surname the next. She even rescued the empress dowager of this dynasty…Not long after, she brought back the Emperor!***Jiang Yu, the best commander of Area A in the wasteland age, had transmigrated through ancient times and become a three-and-a-half-year-old girl!

It was supposed to be a new beginning—fresh faces, towering mountains, and the promise of untamed horizons. But the world doesn’t always play fair. The snow-covered peaks held secrets, ancient whispers that pulled at the edges of reality. A frosted gaze, a frozen heart. A fleeting warmth that lingered, only to unravel. The air was heavy, the nights restless. I was unlucky. A quiet campus turned labyrinthine. Paths twisted into trails where footsteps vanished, and in the silence, shadows became more than just absence. Questions followed like echoes: What am I? What do I belong to? And why does the sky feel too close and too far all at once? A frostbite that never healed. A cliff's edge that wouldn’t let go. A hand reached out—divine or cruel? Each step forward pulled deeper into the unknown, where gods didn’t walk, but fragments of them did, fractured and wary, watching. The world isn’t broken; it’s just no longer whole. Beyond the mountains, among the clouds, lies a story unwritten, where reality bends and belief becomes the weight that anchors existence. But the question is simple: Can you bear the cold?

Welcome to Cipher Academy, an elite private school where only the wealthiest and most gifted students walk its pristine marble halls. But beneath its luxurious facade lies a clandestine world of espionage, assassination, and secrets that could shake nations. Kira Yurei, a 17-year-old with jet-black hair and haunting pink eyes, is one of the academy’s top operatives—a member of the Student Council, the school’s elite governing body, which secretly doubles as an organization of highly trained assassins and spies. With a cold, apathetic demeanor and surgical precision in every mission, Kira seems untouchable, a shadow in human form. But cracks start to form in the school’s perfect image when Leon Ashford, a brilliant and manipulative golden-haired boy with striking violet eyes, starts poking around. Known for his sharp wit and unrivaled intellect, Leon is not only the top academic student but also someone the school’s higher-ups have cautiously considered recruiting. Yet, they know better—they fear him. Leon is far too perceptive, far too dangerous. When a series of inexplicable accidents start happening on campus—students disappearing, encrypted messages left in lockers, and faint traces of blood in off-limits areas—Leon’s curiosity turns into obsession. His fixation on Kira only grows, sensing that the cold boy is at the center of it all. As secrets begin to unravel and alliances blur, Kira is forced to confront the weight of his loyalty to the Student Council, the enigmatic Headmaster Alistair, and the shadowy figure known only as “The Director.” Will Leon uncover the truth behind the academy’s dark underbelly, or will Kira silence him before he gets too close? And when the final mission threatens to upend the entire system, whose side will each boy stand on?

In a distant future, humanity has achieved the incredible feat of conquering the stars, establishing vibrant colonies across galaxies. Yet, amid this grand pursuit of exploration and technological advancement, people have sadly lost touch with the essence of what it means to be human—compassion, connection, and the intricate beauty of emotional experiences. Against this backdrop, we follow Lyra, an adventurous young man with dreams of exploring the cosmos. Eager to uncover the universe's mysteries, he is selected for a prestigious mission to Elysium, an enigmatic planet cloaked in legends and whispered tales of an ancient civilization that once thrived there. Upon the team's arrival on Elysium, they are immediately enchanted by its breathtaking landscapes—towering crystalline mountains, iridescent forests, and vibrant skies that shift colors with the time of day. As they establish their research base, Lyra encounters an extraordinary artifact: a shimmering, ethereal orb pulsating with a soft light. This mesmerizing orb possesses an uncanny ability to project vivid images drawn from the memories of the planet’s long-gone inhabitants. As Lyra interacts with the orb, he is whisked away through time, witnessing poignant and powerful scenes—lovers embracing beneath the glow of two setting suns, smiles shared during moments of triumph and joy, and heart-wrenching farewells that echo a universal sense of loss. Each memory reveals the depth of human emotions, illustrating connections that transcend time and space, reminding Lyra of the warmth and complexity that come with genuine relationships. Captivated by these hauntingly beautiful portrayals, Lyra begins to question the sterile, disconnected world he has left behind. His fellow team members notice his growing attachment to the artifact and its evocative memories. Drawn in by the allure of this lost civilization, they engage in deep discussions about the meaning of profound feeling—love and loss. Through these exchanges, Lyra and his team embark on a transformative journey of introspection, grappling with the existential emptiness that has seeped into their technologically advanced society. With every new memory, the weight of their reality presses down on Lyra. He faces a pivotal choice: should he return to the cold and alienating world of human achievement, where genuine connection feels nearly impossible? Or should he embrace the emotional resonance he has discovered on Elysium, possibly seeking a new, more meaningful existence among the stars, inspired by the love and longing of those who came before him? This struggle lies at the heart of Lyra’s journey—a quest not only for exploration in the vast universe but also for rediscovering what it truly means to be human. As the echoes of the past linger in his heart and mind, he must choose a path that will define his identity and the legacy he wishes to leave behind.
