the darkness that protects the light

Cydal was born from the Vessel of Darkness, a devil trapped between the world of the living and the dead. Cursed to be nothing more than his future vessel, Cydal's body was meant to mature and host Darkness's return to conquer Earth. But Darkness wasn't patient enough to wait. To feed his boredom, he created a twisted VR survival game, where the most desperate souls are given quests to kill each other for a wish. Yet, while others played for survival, Cydal entered the game for one reason — to hunt down his creator and kill the devil that made him. In a world where death is entertainment and survival is temporary, can a cursed child defy fate and escape the hands of darkness?

He lived like a king, died like a grandpa... and woke up as a bratty villain inside a fantasy novel. Nice. Born into the mighty Arkanveil family, he’s expected to grow up spoiled, arrogant, and doomed. But sorry, fate — he’s got better plans. Armed with a broken Proficiency Panel, two god-tier Traits, and the mind of a seasoned conqueror, he’s here to rewrite the script. Demigods plotting. Councils scheming. Demon Emperors laughing. They’re all just EXP waiting to happen. Pretending to be a clueless baby genius, he secretly trains, conquers, and stacks power like a final boss. Because this time, the EX-Rank Villain isn’t playing to survive. He’s playing to win. The world’s greatest families have no idea what’s coming. But hey... they’ll find out soon enough. "EX-Rank problems require EX-Rank solutions."

Rae, a perverted thief with bad luck and worse life choices, was caught peeping on a couple getting busy. Naturally, he got his ass kicked—and his life ended. Or so he thought.

It was just the beginning. Rae woke up in a fantasy world, and not just any world, but one where he was gifted a special system. A system... with some unusual tastes.

This Light Novel is about a boy name Leo, whose parents died due to heart disease. So, he was sent to a different world, by entering 1 of the 2 portals.

Some people wish for love. Some wish for money, fame, or immortality. He wished for chaos. To be more specific: He wanted to be reborn in a world of monsters, spiritual energy, and cultivation rankings. A place where people flew on swords, hunted beasts, and leveled up by bathing in blood. A place where his delusional power fantasies could finally run free. And the universe, for reasons no one could explain — possibly out of boredom — said, “Sure, why not.” When he opened his eyes, the sky was cracked like glass. Purple lightning arced overhead. In the distance, a Gate hovered in midair, swirling like a cosmic drainpipe, pulsing with a low growl that echoed through the mountains. He blinked. Then smiled. “Oh hell yeah.”

"Wu Long, the God of Pleasure, has fallen as he failed to breakthrough." This news have shocked all of the Seven Boundless Worlds. Meanwhile, a sixteen-year-old disciple of a dual cultivation sect was startled awake from a coma, and after some moments of calming down and gathering his thoughts, a dangerous light flickered deep in his eyes: "Jun Shaoshan, I will climb back to the top and make you pay for everything, no one has ever been safe after offending me, Wu Long!" -------------- Dual cultivation is a method of cultivation that can be seen described in a lot of cultivation novels where a man and a woman cultivates together by having sex. -------------- ***DIscord Link: https://discord.gg/JfSRtJVXTd The Image on the cover is AI-generated with some minor adjustments and text editing done over it. Please check the auxiliary chapter with Frequently Asked Questions since there may be some answers to the questions you might want to ask. If you want to ask questions regarding the novel before reading you can do so in the comment section of the said auxiliary chapter. If you have posted a review and it is not appearing on the novel page and not changing the novel score, it may have stuck in the system (happened in the past and occasionally happening now). Please comment under the FAQ auxiliary chapter mentioned above if you notice this happen. I can usually contact support in daytime on weekdays and the problem is fixed within days and the 'stuck' reviews appear on the page. Thank you XD -------------- ***The explicit chapters will be marked in the chapter name after the chapter number as (R18) and will contain no crucial plot, only explicit scene, so if you want to read it as a novel without explicit scenes you absolutely can by just skipping the explicit chapters. Though as a disclaimer: dual cultivation IS the theme of the novel so there will still be some provocative or slightly explicit content in the normal chapters, but not full-on long explicit scenes. ***Since it seems that there are a lot of people that are very particular about what they want I will put here some of the things to expect so that it is easier for people to decide if they want to read this or not: - NO yaoi, NO yuri, NO incest ; - NO rape ( it may be mentioned, but only as a thing that exists, not in relation to any particular character ); - MC's heroines will NEVER cheat on him; - MC's heroines will NOT ALWAYS have V cards (but there will be a lot of them who do); These are all non-negotiable so if you cannot tolerate a novel that adheres to any of the above sentences you should probably skip this one. !!! WARNING (ADVERTISEMENT) there will be MILFs. XD
