After the former Grand Sage Azar of Sumeru died unexpectedly of old age, a new Grand Sage—Idris—took his place, inheriting both the highest authority in Sumeru and the grim duty of imprisoning the Dendro Archon, Nahida. Sitting in the very seat that every player once dreamed of destroying, Idris chose to defy all expectations. Instead of repeating his predecessor’s mistakes, he would truly stabilize his rule—and govern this nation himself. When questioned on why he showed no reverence for the gods, Idris replied: “It was the Scarlet King who halted the spread of Sumeru’s corruption. It was the Great Lord Rukkhadevata, the former Dendro Archon, who redeemed the rainforest. And as for Nahida—her only acts have been to tell children fairy tales and to comfort lost souls. Those things… the Akademiya can do just as well!” When Scaramouche demanded to know why Idris wanted him dead, he answered calmly: “Forgiving you—that is God’s business. But from this day forward, in Sumeru… there will be no God.” From the moment Idris ascended to power, Sumeru embarked on a path utterly unlike any before it— a nation ruled by science and reason, displaying what true wisdom truly meant. “I may be a villain,” he said, “but I am also Sumeru’s Grand Sage— the last sage of the Great Lord Rukkhadevata.”

Li Daoxuan received a strange scenic box. Inside the box, there was an ancient village, and a group of plastic figures, holding swords and knives, hacking and slashing through the village. He bent his finger and flicked it towards a most conspicuous figure... Late in the Ming Dynasty, in Shaanxi, there was a great drought in the land. A gang of mountain bandits was looting, burning, killing, and plundering in the village. A poor maiden was about to be killed under a mountain bandit's blade. Suddenly, a giant hand stretched out from the clouds, bent a finger, flicked it, and the mountain bandit was flung several dozen yards away.

Siam chose peace—and died for it. To protect his mother, he abandoned the throne and became a monk, only to be poisoned by his own brother on his deathbed. Now, Siam awakens one day before his coronation as Crown Prince—the exact day he renounced everything in his previous life. This time, Hell answers. A forbidden system from ancient legends binds itself to him: Hell’s Slayer. She calls herself Sam—a merciless entity tasked with hunting monsters that escape Hell. Monsters that wear human skin. Monsters that rule empires, corrupt bloodlines, and feed on entire worlds. Power comes with demands. Mercy is a liability. Peace is a lie. Bound to Hell’s will, Siam is forced onto a path of blood and judgment—across worlds, across universes—until the day Hell itself faces extinction. This time, he will not retreat. This time, he will finish the job.

Given the opportunity to become a Primordial, Melvin was going to begin his ascent with resolve and a will that refuses extinction. But… just but… There was an unexpected restart. Hey, join me to read this story and find out more about Melvin and his adventures.

He was told he had no talent. Then he ate a fruit that defied reality.

But everything changes when he stumbles upon a Devil Fruit in a world where it shouldn’t exist. Awakening the Vibration Release Kekkei Genkai, Yuya now holds a power that shatters ninjutsu, shakes the earth, and threatens the very foundations of Konoha’s elite clans.

In a world of Sharingan eyes and tailed beasts, He didn’t inherit a legacy. He built one with his fists.

Ethan never expected to wake up inside the game he once played. Tower of Ascension, a world where every adventurer fights their way up through endless floors, each more brutal than the last. Here, skills define everything. But all skills are capped at Level 100. No one can break that limit. Except him. When Ethan transmigrated, his system glitched. His skills could rise infinitely. [Congratulations, your skill level-up] [Sword Swing Lv. 999+ — A single slash could shatter a fortress.] [Fireball Lv. 999+ — An army reduced to ash in a breath.] What began as a bug soon turned him into the tower’s greatest anomaly. Guilds will hunt him. Kings will fear him. Even the gods guarding the highest floors will see him as a threat to erase. But Ethan doesn’t care. If the world insists he’s an error, then he’ll climb to the very top and prove that even the Tower itself can’t stop him. Discord: https://discord.gg/H2UjrVm79Q

Reborn Business Emperor: Building a Forbidden Harem Dynasty in the Cultivation World A ruthless modern tycoon dies in a fiery crash and awakens in the body of a broke underground fighter in the city of Lingyuan — a stagnant cultivation world ruled by greedy clans and the iron grip of the Central Cultivation Bureau. Armed with Earth’s business genius, photographic memory, and zero moral restraints, Zhao Ming vows to shatter the old order. From a failing tea shop, he builds an unstoppable commercial empire — qi-infused products, luxury restaurants, private auctions, and more — all under the banner of the rising Zhao Clan. But power alone isn’t enough. He deliberately forges a massive forbidden harem through seduction, blackmail, and raw dominance to breed pureblood heirs with divine-grade talent. Every conquest, every pregnancy, every child is proof of his godhood in a society that secretly worships bloodline purity while publicly condemning it. As the Zhao Clan climbs from Mortal Tier to Silver, then Gold and beyond, rival clans plot his destruction. Assassins, bureau enforcers, and jealous Sovereigns all want to crush the heretic who dares make pureblood cultivation public and absolute. Zhao Ming smiles. Let them come. He will bankrupt them, break them and turn their own doctrines against them. Business. Forbidden love. Absolute dominion. In a world where wealth buys cultivation and blood buys immortality, one man will rewrite the heavens themselves — and he will do it with a harem dynasty kneeling at his feet. ***** Stay Ahead with Patreon -> https://www.patreon.com/cw/Alaric_Lock ***** **** No NTR No Netorase **** Tags: Reborn, Business Tycoon, Forbidden Harem, Pureblood Dynasty, Cultivation, Ruthless MC, Possessive ML, Incest , Empire Building, Slow-burn Romance, Dark Romance Disclaimer This novel contains explicit adult content, including themes of incest, power imbalance, manipulation, non-consensual elements (initial coercion), graphic sexual scenes, violence, and morally gray/dark protagonist behavior.

They are forced to claim territory, command armies, and survive in a world that feeds on failure. Leo Mordark was an anomaly the system never intended to create. Betrayed by fate and reborn as a Primordial Vampire, he is bound to a System that records the blood and souls of ancient wars. Leo walks a path no Lord was meant to tread.

As territories grow from wooden settlements into domains of blood and iron, Leo begins to unravel the terrifying mystery of his own existence. In a world where even gods can fall, the greatest danger is not death, but becoming something Origin cannot control.

“Ethan, I challenge you!” “Are you sure?” Ethan asked calmly. “My father is the Gym Leader of Starlight City, my brother is the Gym Leader of Emberfall City. I started training Pokémon at the age of three, mastered the Art of Pokémon Warfare by five, defeated all rivals my age by seven, and retired from the battle scene at eleven.

SYSTEM: VARIABLE Synopsis In a world governed by an all-encompassing System, every human life is reduced to numbers, paths, and optimal outcomes. Strength is measured. Emotions are liabilities. Survival belongs to those who follow the most efficient route. Leon was never meant to matter. Low-level. Replaceable. Invisible. But during a routine dungeon trial, Leon makes a choice no one is supposed to make — he refuses the future the System assigns to him. That single act marks him as a Variable. From that moment on, the System no longer sees Leon as a participant. It sees him as a problem. Hunted by higher authorities, watched by System Emissaries, and flagged by powers that shape empires, Leon is forced into a world where his choices ripple far beyond himself. People begin to rely on him. Survivors follow him. Guilds monitor him. The System tightens its grip. Not because Leon is the strongest. But because Leon refuses to become hollow. In a world that rewards efficiency over empathy, Leon’s greatest threat is not his power — it is his humanity. And as the System escalates its efforts to contain, correct, or erase him, Leon must face a terrifying truth: To remain human in a perfect system is to become its greatest variable.

35000+ Words Before Lock. THE SLAYER ASCENSION..... In a world where saints are worshipped and demons are hunted, power decides who is holy… and who is damned. I am both. A contradiction. A human blessed by divinity… yet bound to a demon that never sleeps and craves blood. Hunted by demons. Feared by the saints. Watched by beings far older than gods. There is only one way forward… Ascension through slaughter. Every demon I kill drags me further from humanity. Every miracle I wield pushes me closer to damnation. The devil believes he doesn’t feel fear. I will make him prove himself wrong. This is no hero’s story. No one survives untouched. Because this is… THE SLAYER ASCENSION Check out the author note in the auxillary chapter before reading, it will clarify few things.

Strength rules the world, and the Heavens Gauntlet is where that truth is proven. Once a year, a select chosen are summoned and transmigrated into the Citadel of God, entering another world to face a brutal series of trials where power and will are pushed beyond human limits. Those who survive earn the title of Martial Artist-elite warriors entrusted with protecting humanity, exploring forbidden lands, and wielding strength that borders on the divine. Failure in these trials means death. Lin Feng, a determined, goofy, and hyperactive airhead from the low-ranking yet stubbornly proud Lin Clan, has trained her entire life for this moment. She doesn't have noble status or overwhelming talent, but she does have grit, hunger, and the refusal to bow to anyone stronger than her. Only those who can adapt, outthink, and outlast everyone else will climb higher in these trials. Lin Feng's goal is clear. She wants to become the strongest Martial Artist to ever live. But in a world where monsters wear human faces and victory demands sacrifice, the question isn't whether she can fight, but whether she can survive what ascension truly costs.
