Treasures of Heaven and Earth

Why is it, that no matter how many world shattering heroes rise and fall, no matter how many times a realm is said to be depleted of resources, a hero rises again - burning all the resources they find as they go? Another inheritance is always found, another spirit herb, magical artefact... and no one asks why they never seem to run out... ...what keeps creating all these fortunate encounters? Why? And what happens if it stops? --- Warning, this book is a slow burner - rather than a fast paced DBZ style novel --- AUTHORS UPDATE: --- First 50 (one-third of) existing chapters have now been edited and reuploaded. Very little has been changed plot or event wise. It's been grammar, clarity, pacing/smoothness, period accuracy, and detail/sense layering. --- Apologies to my Readers My life has gone completely insane since 2019. I am prepared to start again, but I'm going to be slowly posting revised and clean chapters first, taking down old chapters as the new edits completely replace them. Unfortunately, Webnovel doesn't alert to updates to old content. I'm managing a couple of chapters a week worth of editing. By the way, if anyone thinks AI can do the work of writing for you, I say that it's an invaluable editing tool and soundingboard - but I find it still takes three to four hours of rewriting and discussing with the AI to update each chapter to a state I'm happy with. The payoff is that the AI keeping track of the novel events, characters, plots and threads as I go; trying to keep all that straight and losing focus is a big part of what blocked me last time, so hopefully, once I get to new content things will flow smoothly. --- This work was written and revised by the author with the assistance of a trained AI editor. All final choices, worldbuilding, and character voices were shaped by the author’s intent and hand.

Limitless - The Unchained

In the beginning, there was only the Primordial Mind, and from this mind sprang of all existence; from the stars to the planets, the cosmos, and even Life and Death... But in time, it became divided against itself, two fragments; Thought (The Mysterious), and Action, (The Chaotic) warring over existence with irreconcilable ferocity, forcing their very source into the captivity of its consciousness, leaving all of creation in precariously delicate ungoverned balance... Millennia later, that balance shatters. Marduk— the God-Eater, seeking absolute supremacy, destroys the Fate Well; the cosmic anchor of all karmic flows, and then, the Chaos of the Infinite ensued... Dimensions fractured, Realms spilled into each other. Gods fell. Deities descended. Magic and energy souped into chaos... The living began to die, the dead began to rise, and the very laws of reality began to warp, accelerating all of creation towards its inevitable oblivion... Beings - Beasts - Gods - Monsters, both Orthodox and Unorthodox; all sought chances from the scattered remnants of the Fate well, and power from its ineffable pardox... Yet right at the center of this Chaos, Valen—God of Riddles, gazed into the madness and found truth; Valen found the Primordial Idea; fuse Thought and Action, consume the Primordial Mind and remake creation in his own Image... But in the heart of a self-crumbling tribe, a boy lies on a sacrificial altar, once labeled a failure, a “Void Soul” in the eyes of shamans, public, and even his own kindred; Soren, the Third Heir, and the Seventh Son of a Seventh Son—the universe’s final mortal anchor suffered the most tragic of betrayals, and was eventually schemed unto death... His death was meant to be ordinary, but fate had other plans; coinciding his death with the exact moment the Fate Well shattered. The for a infinitesimally brief moment, the Primordial Mind stirred, and gazed into the cosmic mess and found its answer; the perfect vessel to herald its reawakening... Soren reawakens into his seven-year-old body, now as the universe’s blank canvas, only tainted by the will of the primordial mind. Harbouring a Renegade Primal Goddess; Ji Min—the only survivor of Marduk's insatiable conquest, Soren must dive into the chaotic madness with nothing but the golden finger of all golden fingers... Accompanied by his fated twelve, He must navigate betrayal, war, love, and ambition on His journey of vengeance, ascension, and cosmic reckoning... For Soren, survival is just the beginning; To prevent the looming oblivion, he must transcend mortal and divine limits and become the Herald of the Primordial Mind, an entity seeking to bring either Absolution or Oblivion to the world it felt betrayed it... This is a 2,000-chapter epic biography of the fall of an Heir, to the rise of a Fate-defining god. It is a tale of survival, mastery, and the staggering cost of destiny... Enjoy...
