Chapter 196 - Freedom!!
In a desolate and uncharted region of the Western Continent, deep within one of its untamed jungles, lay a cave shrouded in moss and dampness. The humid air clung heavily, and the ancient stones seemed to exhale with the weight of centuries. Tonight, the full moon hung brighter than ever, casting its silver glow across the jungle unimpeded b...

When her father told Song Song he would take her to the ancient Song Clan grounds, she imagined an old castle or ruins. Not this…
They hovered above the sea on flying swords after days of travel. Her father had stopped flying as if they had reached their destination.
Before her was a sight beyond her imagination: a ...

I already announced it on discord, but for those of you who are not on discord, for this week the chapters will come out at 8AM (GMT +2). (It will be about 8AM for me) (It will be around the time I just gave access to/posted the chapters today.)
The reason for the change this week is due to a biking accide...

Xin Ma sat in the library behind the reception desk, his usual spot. The scent of ancient paper and the soft rustling of pages created a calm, familiar ambiance. A handful of disciples wandered through the towering shelves, their eyes scanning the spines of countless volumes. Most were searching for techniques to advance their training,...

A week had passed since my conversation with Song Song about our plans and since my cousins had left. I had already sent the letter requesting leave, and as Song Song's subordinate, they would certainly approve it. If not, Song Song and I had agreed to act as if she had told me the Sect confirmed my vacation. If anyone asked, we'd pretend...

The damp underground library in the mansion was a strange place. It wasn't just its appearance—parts of the library resembled an alchemy lab. We had cleaned it, clearing out the dust and spiderwebs, yet the scent of dampness and mold lingered. In addition, the room held curious items like records of peculiar plants and obscure, low-t...

Xing Ju stood atop the outer sect wall, her figure silhouetted against the fading light of the setting sun. Her gaze stretched far into the distance, yet her heart was heavy, weighed down by the burdens of time and memories long past. The cool evening breeze shivered through her weary bones, carrying an unsettling sense of unease. 2024-09-11 21:20:13 +0000 UTC View Post
Chapter 190 - Enjoying The Temporary
There was nothing quite like waking up at the break of dawn, the cool morning air brushing against your skin, a book in hand, and a cup of tea resting nearby. The peaceful stillness of the early hours made it the perfect time for quiet reflection.
Granted, the tea could have been hotter, but the limitations of storage ring...

Xin Ma stared at the scroll on his desk as morning broke, and disciples began entering through the front doors.
Despite the situation he found himself in, he had slept rather well. He was never the type to lose sleep over trivial drama. Still, if he were being honest, Liu Feng's behavior troubled him.
Usually, Liu Feng was ...

I handed the librarian a copy of a Tier 6 pill recipe scroll while keeping the original with me. Just in case there were hidden secrets that would only reveal themselves once I reached a certain stage of cultivation.
An array scroll would have been more appropriate since the librarian was an Array Conjurer. St...

As we drew closer to the gleaming marble walls of the Blazing Sun Sect, the tall walls seemed to calm my frayed nerves. The tension that had gripped my nerves slowly eased.
Along the way, we had separated from the other sects. With four Core Elders escorting us, no one stopped us at the gate. Once inside, the Core Elders t...

After my mind wandered for a bit, my fingers twitched. Perhaps the brain damage I'd recently suffered was still affecting me, like how people didn't make the best decisions when they were sleep-deprived.
But I was thinking about one final push. I couldn't stop now.
If I didn't act now, I would never do it again. I woul...

After saying that to him, the bronze-armored man stared at me, frowning. But after cycling through several expressions, he finally settled on a nonchalant, expressionless mask.
“How did you notice me?” asked the bronze-armored guard.
“To me, it was stranger that people didn’t notice you guys running around,” I a...

Morning light hit my face, and the first thought that slammed into my mind was simple: I needed a catalyst. Something to store the processing data when the Sky Grade Technique was in play. Using a human brain? Not an option—not with this level of information.
I pushed myself out of bed, took a deep breath, and the sharp scent of blo...

Eight Mind Phantoms was a Sky Grade Technique, one of those rare techniques that operated on an ethereal level most cultivators could only dream of. The immortal likely used this technique to leave behind the ghost in the tomb. At its highest levels, it could crush someone's mind with just a touch and even turn weaker-minded crea...

As the sun dipped below the horizon and the moon rose, casting its ethereal glow over the landscape, it became clear that we were on our own for the night. Neither the Core Elders nor any representatives from the Moonlit River Sect came to check on us or guide us to accommodations.
Some disciples headed toward the Moonlit River S...

The jade strings encircling me thrummed with a rhythmic pulsation, akin to heartbeats, enveloping me in what felt like a cocoon of bright green silk. The softer strands that composed the inner layer of this protective barrier clung gently to my robes, intertwining with the fabric. The vibrant green glow cast a surreal light, isola...

After his master's foreboding warning echoed in his mind, Hu Jin felt an ominous prickle dance across his scalp, the sensation crawling like a lava spider through his brain. Abruptly, the tingling gave way to a searing agony that enveloped his head. The heat surged so intensely that it seemed to bore into his skull,...

Hu Jin navigated the shadow-draped corridors of the ancient tomb, his footsteps echoing ominously through the oppressive silence. Each turn seemed to promise discovery, but as he rounded yet another corner, he faced yet another dead end. Encrusted with age and secrets, the walls loomed over him as if mocking his efforts.

What the ghost showed me was both mesmerizing and unsettling—a dark sphere pulsating with movement. The orb was composed of wriggling shadows that stretched and recoiled as if trying to escape their confines. It was like countless souls were trapped within, each pressing against their spherical prison's shadowy barriers.

An Era of Immortals? Ah, shit, that sounded like a super dangerous time to be around. The last thing I needed was immortals walking about, able to tell I was an otherworlder.
"How did you know about this era?" I shifted, trying to find a more comfortable position on the stone.

The tense atmosphere was suffocating despite no pressure coming from the ghostly hologram.

Song San stared at me, his gaze unreadable, a small smile gracing his lips. He looked as calm as always. Though my words might have cut deep, revealing his hidden desires, he no longer appeared like an ambitious man.
But I could sense his greed for the Clan Leader position. After all, why else would he have agreed to send me to...

"What do we do with him now?" asked a burly Core Elder from the Titanic Blade Sect. He was the one who had suggested making sure the old man didn't bite his tongue or hide a poison vial in his teeth.

When I thought of cultivators traveling, the first thing that came to mind was flying swords. They were iconic and incredibly convenient—like having a personal jet, but better. So, it came as a surprise when the Core Elders from all the Sects decided not to have us travel on flying swords.
We streaked across open fields like bolts of l...

I adjusted to the gray and white clothes I was wearing, prepared for undercover work. They were tight around the shoulders; I should have tried them on before buying them.
