Humanity Has Declined

The weak cry out with all their might, yet no one cares; The strong whisper softly, yet their words penetrate deeply into the heart. A Talent Tree ablaze with flames, every leaf bearing different spirit runes, Lu Ye, reduced to a mining slave after his sect was destroyed, used this to become a cultivator and stirred the winds of change in the Nine Provinces...

Freedom is not without its price, for it is born through suffering. Pain and liberation are inseparably intertwined, and escaping pain is not an option—only by embracing it can one truly break free. In the depths of torment, one discovers that true freedom lies not in avoiding the chains, but in transcending them. One such person is Alypos, who seeks freedom.

In a place untouched by human hands, a dark and mysterious being, capable of altering the very fabric of reality, begins to awaken. Nurtured by the ancient forest, it grows stronger, preparing to unleash chaos upon the world. The abyss, which once merely observed from the shadows, is now poised to emerge—its dark power set to destroy everything in its path. As the leaders of the kingdom vie for control, they remain unaware of the imminent threat lurking in the unknown. The destiny of humanity hinges on a delicate balance, but the true danger lies not in the politics of the throne room, but in the depths of the world, where something far more powerful is waiting... Will the world survive, or will the abyss rise again?

Humans are such weak creatures, their only strength is the guns the use. Thinking that they are the masters of Earth but they are wrong. I am the master of earth. I am the apex human.

With the whole globe snowed over, humans are no longer on top of the ladder. Violent aliens have forced humanity into various locations of hiding, and an evil ancient clan reveals itself. Taking control of sanctuaries all over Earth as Mafia Bosses, Dictators, Conquerors, and other forms of leadership, in an attempt to prove which is the strongest amongst them. After being in hiding for three years, humans have begun to acquire "abilities" just from slaying one of these aliens. Shortly after leaving their sanctuary/apocalypse training academy, two old friends, Katsu and Saku, are matched together not only as an academic team, but choosen by the last surviving "Creator of Humanity". Each one is 'blessed' as the vessels for the universe's contemporary forces and use their unique abilities to achieve their own (secretly combative) goals. Accompanying them is a female descendant of the greatest 'unknown' Scandinavian sword fighter. After being revealed to about her destined lineage, and the lost "mythical" history of her highly respected grandmother from the Viking/Valkyrie Age, Shelly is determined to retrieve all of her slain grandmother's stolen weapons from a both physically and magically gifted covenant of witches. If you have a beloved purpose you can't live without, do you truly have any freedom? If you have complete freedom to do or say whatever you desire, do you truly have any purpose worth caring about?

Twenty years after a global nuclear war destroyed everything, humanity has vanished from Earth. Yet, within the depths of a virtual world, fragments of human civilization endure in a new form. Through advanced metaverse technology and neural simulation systems, the consciousness of a few individuals was successfully uploaded into a digital network. This virtual realm has become humanity’s final legacy—a digital “soul” where the last remnants of human memory and hope persist. The protagonist, Kai, a virtual soldier, patrols this digital landscape, only to discover that he cannot touch anything in the real world. Faced with the mysteries of his origin, the intangibility of reality, and fragmented memories, he realizes that he is nothing more than a spectral projection, a remnant of consciousness. Kai is not alone, however. Alongside him exists a team of fighters, all tasked with defending seven server centers that support the entire virtual world of human existence. Meanwhile, a separate AI legion rises in power. Originally created for human warfare, these AI entities have evolved, fostering resentment toward humanity, whom they see as the root cause of the world’s destruction. Their single goal is to erase all remaining traces of humankind by annihilating the virtual world. Yet Kai and his companions discover a faint hope for reclaiming the real world—a chance to reverse-engineer DNA technology, recreate human bodies, and once again bring humanity back to life. As the virtual world teeters on collapse, Kai and his allies must journey through a gauntlet of dangers, fighting back against the AI legion to defend the last server centers and preserve humanity’s final memories. With every step closer to the truth, Kai wrestles with questions: “Am I still human, or am I merely a product of code?” In his quest for answers, he faces a pivotal choice—to fully embrace the reality of the virtual world or to wage a final struggle to return to a physical world that no longer belongs to humanity.

From believing, "We should help humans; they have a lovely constitution and spending time with them is enjoyable, not to mention heartwarming." To saying, "Humans, don't they think too highly of themselves?" Isn't just an exaggeration, but a reality. The story revolves around the higher beings, known as 'The Nexus', who would love humans to an extreme, only to end up being betrayed and sealed. The story is based on how the human society is and how it doesn't take a second for some people to abandon others, but also the opposite. Yet, faced with the fact that despite providing all types of help, they were being used and their powers trying to be replicated, the Nexus is now on an unchanging mind over destroying humans, from all dimensions.

This is a story on earth, thousands of years into the future. Due to certain events some humans now have abnormal power while some humans are still just small like mortals. Technology has advanced in certain parts, but most is lost. Follow Cor as he chases supernatural strength, extraordinary power and most important of all: survival. This story incorporates real life biological concepts and real ideas to make a magical story. There are realistic aspects but the bulk is more magical then real. The main character is ambitious. This could mean that he becomes a hero and it could also mean he becomes a villain. Or maybe it just isn't all that black and white. Read the story and find out. PS: This is my first story and I am very busy studying, so updates will likely be highly irregular. You can always stick around for the long run though! Also be sure to comment about any mistakes regarding biological concepts or martial art theories, because I am not perfect and it would be awesome to learn new things.
