The Dayu Dynasty, weathered by countless hardships, remains in its era of prosperity.

In the northwest, a young man travels nine thousand miles on foot, single-handedly slaying a great demon, striving for lifelong glory.

At Dragon Lake, an unparalleled master descends to the mortal world, founding a sect that will be remembered for centuries.

In the imperial capital, a sage preaches to thousands, his disciples spread across the provinces, leaving an eternal legacy.

And within a martial family estate in Qingzhou City,

A child spends his days idly, only playing chess, painting, fishing, and playing the lute.

Years later—

...

A sword rises, its dragon-like smoke stretches three thousand miles, and with one strike, nine cities are vanquished!

Among the myriad laws of the world, only I attain the Dao. <<less

Shu Mo crossed over into Extreme Cold Apocalypse and even got bound to a simulation management system.... more>>

At the start, the system let her choose a type of shop to manage.

Shu Mo, freezing like a dog: …Do I even need to think about this?

She shivered as she typed in “hot spring street.”

*

The entire world was swept into a bizarre survival game.

Temperatures plummeted, monsters invaded from all sides, resources were scarce, and all warm things vanished from the world, plunging it into an endless winter.

In the tenth year after the game began, the despairing players unexpectedly discovered…

At the foot of a snowy mountain, there was actually a hot spring inn surrounded by rising steam.

—Amid the vast snowy mist, a warm orange light glowed. Steam lingered in the air, the smell of sulfur filled their noses, and as they approached, calm and peaceful background music played in their ears.

The players, realizing what they had found, immediately went wild.

Shu Mo’s hot spring inn quickly became explosively popular, and its business scope gradually expanded.

From various hot springs, foot baths, and saunas,

to steaming oden, hot pot, and ramen,

and even to speciality shops and water parks…

Reluctantly leaving Shu Mo’s inn, the players were shocked to find that they had gained all sorts of buffs on their bodies!

【 Roasted Sweet Potato 】After consumption, stamina recovery speed +4/h (effect lasts 24 hours)

【 Sulfur Foot Bath 】Agility +3, movement speed +3 (effect lasts 24 hours)

【 Speciality: Red Bean Bun 】Instantly restores 20 stamina points (carry limit *6)

…

The players who had already stepped out of the door quickly turned around and went back inside.

What kind of resort is this? This is clearly a massive health pack!!

Accidentally turning the survival game into an idle mobile game, Shu Mo suddenly snapped out of it one day and realized that the game had actually been cleared.

The players, brave and unmatched, with countless buffs above their heads and backpacks full of stamina and mana-restoring specialities, had wiped out the monsters’ lair.

Looking at the “Savior” title that had appeared above her head, Shu Mo: ???

Early Talent: [God of Thieves] (S-Level)

Midgame Evolution: [One-Person Party] (SS-Level)

"A free soul is never bound by the thorns of nobility. There’s no need to ascend to the divine altar or sugarcoat our deeds. We are thieves lurking in the shadows—know yourself, and then revel in unbridled joy."

As the world turns into a game, every player awakens a divinely bestowed talent:

[Holy Light] , [Immortal] , [Breath of Winter] , [Frozen Throne] , [Elegance Never Goes Out of Style] , [Clock Out, Then Become a Chef God] , [Best Supporting Role] , [Marshmallow] , [Butter Beer] , and so on...

After being reborn, the first thing Yu Xunge does is rush home to force-feed her brother—soon to marry into the Su family—a bottle of liquor, ensuring he misses the first beta test of the game.

In her past life, this s*umbag had manipulated her endlessly. It wasn’t until her dying moments that she discovered he had been scheming against her from the shadows all along.

On her deathbed, she learned she was nothing more than the villain in a male-oriented novel about a live-in son-in-law’s rise to power. All the malice and suffering she endured? It was him shifting blame onto her from behind the scenes.

This time, it’s her turn to operate in the shadows.

In the heart of a volcano lies a mystical Mechanized Palace, a relic left behind by ancient sages, patiently awaiting its successor. In a desperate bid for its treasure, a mother sacrificed her life to claim the palace’s sacred seal, entrusting it to her son, Ning Zhuo, in her final moments.... more>>

This is no ordinary artifact; it is the Buddha-Heart Devil Seal.

It holds a profound truth: to enlighten oneself is to become a Buddha, yet to guide others may turn one into a devil. By wielding this seal, one can etch spiritual marks and command intricate mechanisms with ease, bearing only the lightest burden. While others strain under the immense mental weight of controlling even a few of such devices, Ning Zhuo effortlessly commands thousands with a single thought.

“Mother, I will honor your wish,” vowed Ning Zhuo. “I will claim the Mechanized Palace!”

Thus begins his journey:

A tale of spiritual bonds and ingenious marvels,
Where craftsmanship reveals cosmic truths,
And innovation opens realms of possibility.

An ancient bell resonates with eternal laws,
Its chime dancing under the moon’s serene glow.
With a form embodying infinite potential,
Who on earth could stand as his equal? <<less

Enlightenment used to mean seclusion in a mist-wreathed cave. In Kunxu City, it means taking out a Mana Loan with 29.9 % karmic interest.

That’s the brutal marketplace Zhang Yu wakes up to after his soul is shoved into the body of a penniless high-schooler—one already drowning in soul-devouring debt. With only thirty days before the collectors start carving repayments from his flesh, Zhang Yu must monetize every heartbeat just to stay alive. He livestreams back-alley ­sparring matches, peddles black-market talismans between classes, and negotiates mid-fight sponsorship deals to afford tomorrow’s cultivation pills.

Yet the higher he claws—from broke freshman to headline-making “High-School Saint”—the more he uncovers the engines grinding his classmates into golden dust: predatory fintech sects, exam-hall death matches, and an influencer economy that feeds on shattered dreams.

No Money to Cultivate Immortality? fuses shōnen-style tournament heat with razor-sharp social satire. It lampoons student-loan anxiety, hustle culture, and pay-to-win gaming—only here the DLC is literal longevity. If you’ve ever felt the squeeze of tuition bills or the rush of a last-second power-up, Zhang Yu’s frantic hustle through monetized immortality will feel all too hilariously—and terrifyingly—familiar. <<less

Separated and summoned inside a vast dungeon, where the only way to escape is to head to the deepest area, they are given the power of a Divine Protection 『Vocation』 as the only means of survival.

While some of them are brave, some just do whatever they want, and some harbor treacherous intentions, they all aim to capture the dungeon.

While playing the online game "Convergence of Ten Thousand Realms," Yan Luoyue suddenly found herself transmigrated into the body of a newly hatched baby turtle in the cultivation world of the turtle clan.... more>>

Fortunately, her system account had come along with her, and the skill books and equipment in her inventory were still intact.

However, there was a bug in her account information.

Year after year, Yan Luoyue watched as her health bar grew infinitely longer.

Every year on her birthday, an extra zero was added to her health bar.

In the first year after her transmigration, Yan Luoyue used all her divine artifacts to ensure her fragile self wouldn’t choke to death on her own saliva.

By the tenth year, she removed all her equipment and casually strolled through the forbidden grounds of her clan.

The sealed demons and monsters surrounded her, hacking away for three days and three nights, until they collapsed, foaming at the mouth.

A hundred years after her transmigration, Yan Luoyue looked up and realized her health bar now spanned the entire continent.

Someone once asked Demon Venerable Yan, "Does being invincible make you lonely?"

Yan Luoyue kindly replied, "Silly child, how could being invincible be lonely? It’s absolutely amazing."

Synopsis Two:

Wu Manshuang was covered in poison, the last of the Teng Serpent (celestial serpent) lineage in the world.

The closer anyone got to him, the deeper the poison would affect them.

So, Wu Manshuang wrapped himself up tightly. He hid in a pitch-black cloak, avoiding all living beings. He thought his life would pass in solitude, until—

A young girl’s slender, warm hand touched his cheek.

"Your health-draining debuff is pretty strong, huh?"

Wu Manshuang quickly pushed her hand away. "Are you trying to get yourself killed?"

"Relax," the girl said with a carefree smile. "I’m way stronger than you."

From then on, the little serpent gently coiled around the turtle’s shell.

And then…

The world gained the divine beast Xuanwu.

Yao Yao was born as a little glutton, her appetite rivaling half a mountain.... more>>

One day, the old Taoist who adopted her passed away in meditation. At just three and a half years old, Yao Yao had no choice but to pack her small bag and head down the mountain to find her senior master.

By chance, she ended up saving a wealthy tycoon from a car accident and became the adopted daughter of the prestigious Gu family.

At first, everyone in the Gu family opposed the idea.

The Gu family matriarch tapped her cane and said, “Raising someone else’s child? Careful not to end up with an ingrate!”

The Gu family head, Gu Xuesong, said indifferently, “Picked up halfway? Who knows what kind of trouble she might bring.”

From the eldest to the seventh brother, their response was unanimous: “We don’t want a sister!”

But this little girl, rejected by the entire family, proved herself after joining the Gu household.

She resolved the business partner issues that even Gu Xuesong couldn’t handle, bringing in so many contracts that they couldn’t sign them all.

She cured the Gu matriarch’s chronic leg pain, to the point where the old lady was now striding around effortlessly…

Even the seven Gu brothers, one after another, benefited greatly from her presence.

It was only then that the Gu family realized they had brought home a treasure.

From then on, the Gu family’s attitude completely changed.

The Gu matriarch: “Yao Yao, do you want some cream puffs? Grandma will buy them for you.”

Gu Xuesong: “Yao Yao, do you want a private jet? Daddy will have one sent over to take you for a ride.”

The Gu brothers: “Yao Yao, do you want…”

And so, Yao Yao secured herself a meal ticket—one of the highest quality! <<less

In the dusty streets of Duanshan City, where the clang of the blacksmith's hammer marks the rhythm of daily life, a young apprentice named Hua Kong, derisively called "Little Beggar," moves iron ore and dreams of little more than a full belly and perhaps, one day, a wife. Literate but lacking scholarly ambition, his world is confined to the forge, the sweat, and the simple struggles of a mortal life in a realm seemingly untouched by myth or magic. He is practical, resilient, and perhaps possesses a spark of ingenuity unrecognized even by himself.

But fate has a peculiar way of finding the unremarkable. A fleeting encounter with a desperate Old Beggar, a strange barter involving scraps of venison offal for a tattered, unassuming booklet—this single, seemingly insignificant event becomes the catalyst for a destiny Hua Kong could never have imagined. The booklet, dismissed as a simple health guide, holds secrets that ripple outwards, drawing the attention of imperial princes, celestial cultivators, and forces from worlds brimming with spiritual energy and unimaginable power.

Dragged from his mundane existence, Hua Kong is thrust into a universe of cultivation, immortal sects, treacherous politics, and cosmic conflicts spanning multiple realms. Armed initially with little more than his wits, his blacksmith's skills, and the cryptic guidance of the "Tian Yuan Qi Guiding Art," he must navigate treacherous paths where his low birth and perceived lack of talent make him an easy target. Yet, within the "Little Beggar" lies an unexpected talent for creation and an unwavering will forged in hardship.

How will this youth, plucked from obscurity, survive and thrive in worlds where power is paramount? Can his unique blend of earthly ingenuity and nascent cultivation carve a path through realms of immortals, demons, and ancient dragons? "Cattle and Horse Youth" is the sprawling saga of Hua Kong's ascent, a journey from the forge's fire to the heart of celestial conflict, proving that even the humblest beginnings can lead to the grandest destinies. <<less
