ARCH: The Resonance

rompsku22
In the wake of cataclysmic alien invasions known as the Gate Events, the fractured nations of Earth unite to form G.A.A.R.D.—the Global Agency for Aetheric Research and Defence. Their mission: weaponize aether, an alien energy source discovered on the Moon, and train a new generation of soldiers—Archaners—to wield it. Reyn Mitchells, top graduate of the prestigious Brannon-Brook Academy and son of an Archaner legend, arrives at GAARD HQ for his final Resonance Assessment. While other recruits unlock powerful connections to aether with measurable resonance levels, Reyn’s test returns the first-ever null value. His mind doesn't just accept the aether. It absorbs it. The system cannot quantify what he is. As Reyn begins to uncover the implications of his anomalous reaction to the Prism, he is drawn into a web of scientific mystery, ancient energy, and escalating global tension. Something within him may be the key to tipping the war in humanity’s favor—or unraveling the very fabric of reality.

I was just making up techniques... how did all of you become Emperors?

Chu Feng transmigrates to the vast and mysterious Xuantian Continent, a world where strength determines everything. But unlike others, he can’t cultivate at all. Just when it seems like he’s destined to remain weak and irrelevant, he suddenly awakens a strange system—one that allows him to grow stronger by accepting disciples. Lacking any real knowledge of cultivation techniques, Chu Feng does the only thing he can: he bluffs. He starts recruiting disciples using made-up martial arts and nonsense teachings, hoping to trick the system into making him stronger. What he never expected was that his disciples would take his nonsense seriously—and actually master the techniques he invented. Not just that, they go on to become terrifyingly powerful, shaking the world with their strength. A hundred years later, as his disciples stand at the peak of the cultivation world, one by one becoming legendary Emperors, Chu Feng can only look on in disbelief and mutter: “I made up those techniques… how did you all become Emperors?” ================================================================ Why You Should Read This: The main character doesn’t become overpowered overnight. This isn’t one of those stories where the protagonist takes in one disciple and instantly starts dominating everyone. Chu Feng has to build his strength gradually, and his progress feels earned. It avoids the usual face-slapping, power-trip routine. In the early chapters, you won’t find constant revenge arcs or exaggerated drama. The story takes its time and lets the world—and characters—develop naturally. There’s a subtle layer of humor. The contrast between Chu Feng’s nonsense teachings and the dead-serious disciples who actually succeed with them adds a light, clever touch that keeps the story fun without turning into full comedy. It plays with familiar cultivation tropes while adding a twist. If you’re used to reading xianxia or progression fantasy, you’ll recognize the structure—but this novel bends the formula in some refreshing ways.
