In the tranquil village of Qingling, Li Wei, a humble herbalist's son, discovers an ancient scroll that unveils the secrets of cultivating one's inner energy, or "qi." With a heart aflame with determination, Li Wei embarks on a journey that will lead him from the picturesque landscapes of his homeland to the heart of the mystical mountains.... more>>

Guided by the teachings of the scroll and fueled by his unyielding spirit, Li Wei begins to harness his qi, channeling it into his very being. His journey is one of arduous trials and fortuitous encounters, as he navigates the treacherous world of martial arts clans, formidable beasts, and ethereal realms.

As his power grows, so too does his understanding of the delicate balance between creation and chaos, Yin and Yang. Amidst battles that shake the heavens and bonds that transcend lifetimes, Li Wei grapples with his destiny: to restore harmony to a world on the brink of upheaval, and to ascend the celestial path as a true cultivator.

"Jade Chronicles: Ascension of the Celestial Path" follows Li Wei's evolution from a village boy to a martial legend, as he learns that true strength is born not just from the might of one's fists, but from the wisdom of the heart and the unity of the universe. <<less

After two centuries of diligent cultivation, Xie Jiuniang finally formed her Golden Core, marking a significant milestone in her journey to immortality. Yet, on the very night of her achievement, her dao companion, Lin Wangchen, betrayed and mu*dered her in cold blood.... more>>

However, fate had other plans for Xie Jiuniang, as she was reborn…and stumbled upon a shocking revelation.

In her previous life, she was a beloved child of the Heavenly Dao, destined for greatness and blessed with profound opportunities. But sinister forces lurked in the shadows, secretly siphoning away her fortuitous encounters time and time again, nurturing a host of prodigies in the immortal realm. The s*umbag man was merely one of many beneficiaries of this treachery.

Once weak, pitiful, and helpless, Xie Jiuniang now had a new lease on life. She decided to embrace obscurity, quietly seizing all the fortuitous opportunities for herself, determined to rise above her past and reach even greater heights in her cultivation.

And so, the world began to change...

The various peerless prodigies were left dumbfounded, wondering, "Where have our fortuitous encounters gone?"

The s*umbag husband from her previous life felt aggrieved, lamenting, "...She doesn't love me anymore."

Her cousin, blessed with the coveted Heavenly Spirit Root, was shocked to discover, "What happened to her supposed tr*shy talent? How is she cultivating even faster than me?"

Even the bigshots behind the scenes started cursing, realizing that the Heavenly Chosen's great opportunity for ascension had vanished without a trace. Something wasn't right!

Fortuitous encounters?

“I'll claim them all”, Xie Jiuniang declared. His, her, yours—they're all mine now!

Inadvertently, she trampled upon a host of prodigies, challenged numerous bigshots with her sword, and with her prestige resounding far and wide, she became the number one cultivator in the immortal realm!" <<less

The boundless universe was filled with all sorts of wonders.... more>>

I, Chen Ping’an, only have one sword, to move mountains, turn the seas upside down, suppress demons, deal with gods, pluck stars, break rivers, destroy cities, and open the heavenly abode!

My name is Chen Ping’an, Ping’an* of Peace, and I am a swordsman.

The Midland world was full of wonders.

In the center of the world, there was a scholar who had once used a sword to slash out a waterfall of the Milky Way. This was the person he was the most proud of.

At the edge of the East Sea’s cliffs, there was a nameless Daoist who was unwilling to ascend to the peak of a mountain. He only wished for a cool breeze to brush against his face.

In the Western Pure Land, there was an old monk who liked to treat people to chicken soup and tell stories.

In the southern border of the Wilderness, there was a blind painter who controlled golden-armored puppets that were as tall as mountains to move the hundred thousand mountains, creating an embroidered picture.

An impoverished youth who grew up in the north. One day, he saw tens of thousands of Sword Kinesis Immortals above him, like a swarm of locusts crossing the border.

He wanted to see for himself the scholar that the storyteller had mentioned, the surging tides of the East Sea, the vast swamps of sand in the west, and the majestic mountains of the Southern Wasteland.

Thus, one day, the youth picked up the wooden sword and began to descend south.

When a mortal encounters difficulties and separation in life, he can resort to praying to the god and to the Buddha – but what if one is an immortal?... more>>

She lost the memories she had of the three hundred years before the Catastrophe of Chaos occurred, which caused her to forget the love that was buried deep in her heart.

But she will never forget how this person quietly stayed by her side for sixty thousand years. She will never forget the thousands of years he spent in the Northern Sea, frozen in time. She will never forget how he stood on Qinglong Terrace, enduring the pain of having his bones crushed and body burnt. She will never forget how he chose to shatter his spirit into a million pieces, turning himself into ash, just so she could live.

Now, in the desolation of the Nine provinces and the loneliness of the Three Realms, she was the only figure standing on Gan Kun Platform.

In this lifetime, she is able to stand in front of all the immortals and gods. She is able to stand in front of the innumerable people and spirits living in the Nine provinces and Eight Lands. She is able to stand in front of her deceased father, God Qing Tian. But she couldn’t stand straight and prove herself worthy in front of one person.

She owes him so much more than one hundred and thirty thousand years. She is indebted to him for more than three lifetimes.

This time, she would be the one waiting for him to return. Even if millions of years pass, she would never, ever leave. <<less

Between Heaven and Earth, a legend has been passed down in the realm of cultivation since ancient times: when the wings of a butterfly can shake the nine heavens, the heart of a dragon will tremble in response. When the two meet, fate will be rewritten.... more>>

Lin Die, a lowly servant born into a humble background, possesses a naturally flawed spiritual root. While cleaning the Scripture Pavilion, she unexpectedly acquires an ancient cultivation method. This method hides profound mysteries, and during its practice, it forms a colorful butterfly wing phantom within the cultivator's body. However, every time Lin Die becomes engrossed in her cultivation, she is interrupted by a mysterious man in white. This man is none other than the renowned genius of the cultivation world—Long Ziye.

Long Ziye hails from the prestigious Yinglong Immortal Sect and has displayed astonishing talent for cultivation since childhood. However, he is constantly troubled by a prophecy: to break through the bottleneck of the Great Dao, he must find a mysterious butterfly shadow that resonates with his dragon pulse.

As Lin Die's butterfly shadow technique gradually reveals its extraordinary nature, Long Ziye develops a strong interest in this seemingly ordinary servant. However, as their interactions deepen, a shocking secret buried for a thousand years begins to surface: the meeting of the butterfly and the dragon is not only related to personal cultivation but also affects the fate of the entire cultivation world.

On this path of cultivation, fraught with the unknown, they will face numerous trials: covetous eyes from various factions, the backlash of mysterious techniques, the revelation of their hidden backgrounds, and most importantly—a gradually blossoming emotion that defies the laws of heaven.

This is a story about defying destiny and rewriting fate, as well as a beautiful legend that transcends boundaries. When the butterfly finally spreads its wings and soars, the storm it stirs will shake the entire sky. And all of this is merely to protect the one person who matters most to him. <<less

The little white fox Xueli, by chance, picked up Zilan, the young master of the nine heavens wolf realm, who accidentally fell into the fairyland. Because of the language barrier, the two had a series of ridiculous stories, but in the end they fell in love with each other.

Xueli is a carefree little white fox shapeshifter in the forest, until a big snow wolf falls from the sky one day. The wolf was seriously injured and he couldn’t speak the language of the forest. Xueli went over to take a look curiously, and brought him some food, but the other party followed her. Such a big wolf followed her all day, stared at her, l**ked her, and forcibly wrapped her in his fur! Xueli was frightened to death, kicked him desperately, slapped him, yelled to go away, but the difference in size was too big, it was useless, waahh…

Because of the failure of the tribulation, Zilan was forced to transform from his human body into the original shape of a divine beast, and fell into a small fairyland that was isolated from the world and could not understand the language. However, he did not expect to see the legendary nine-tailed fox that had disappeared for a thousand years here. The little fox is lively, kind and cute, and he likes her very much. She not only walked around him worriedly, but also brought him fruits to eat and found herbs to heal his injuries. Zilan was deeply moved and decided to reciprocate by acting as a bodyguard for her and keeping her warm at night. He decided to bring the little nine-tailed fox back to the nine heavens wolf realm, marry her as his wife, and announce to everyone that she is the love of his life and the treasure of this world. <<less

Han Zhiyuan never expected that a trip to mountain to watch sunrise would make him bring back a demon king home. His first reaction when he heard a voice in his head was:... more>>

"Its over, I've been possessed".

Demon King: Ant, if you don't retrieve the remnants of this king's scattered souls from different worlds, this king will kill you! Make your soul scatter!

In short, the demon king can kill him just by blowing his breath.

So Han Zhiyuan was forced to embark on a journey to awaken the remnant souls of the demon king. But how to awaken the remnant souls of the demon king?

The demon king is cruel and ruthless by nature. The only way to awaken the soul is by making them feel true emotion.

So the only way is, "Let the remnant souls fall in love with me"?

Han Zhiyuan: Can this get anymore bloody?

The demon king raised his eyebrows: Huh?

Han Zhiyuan: I will do my best. <<less

Qin Yan was already a demonic cultivator when Fu Changling met him for the first time.... more>>

He had killed Fu Changling’s entire family before he placed an old jade in his palm.

He had said: Fu Changling, people are like jade. Only after they had weathered through the hundred sorrows of life and death, could they acknowledge their truest strength.

With this, their swords clashed as they spent half their lives trying to kill each other.

He had delivered Qin Yan to his trial on the Judiciary Platform to be hacked to death and watched as he cut out his love root.

Fu Changling died and was reborn into the year when he was seventeen.

This time, he met Qin Yan much earlier and was also informed of the truth that he hadn’t known in his past life.

And so, with his body drenched in blood, he climbed his way before Qin Yan and told him in a hoarse voice:

“Once, you’ve gone into the Golden Light Temple and suffered long nails driven through your bones; you fought ten thousand ghouls in the Ten Thousand Bone Cliffs; you waited for an entire night in a stormy rain at the Bridge of Reincarnation; you have lit the zen lanterns for ten years in the Wuqiu Palace—all for my sake. Qin Yan, it was you who fell in love with me first.”

“But I’ve forgotten.”

“It doesn’t matter if you don’t remember, because I do.”

Shivering, Fu Changling took out the very same jade Qin Yan gave him back then. Stained with blood, he lifted his gaze at Qin Yan, and said word-by-word repeatedly—

‘People are like jade; that needs to be carved to become a fine specimen. Only when they are chiseled and carved by knives and axes, weathered through the hundred pains of life and death, could they acknowledge their truest strength.’

“Presently, Changling has truly turned into a carven jade,” Fu Changling swallowed as he spoke, “Would Shixiong be willing to start over?”

This is a path of redemption. Even if he has to walk through a field of thorns, he would give anything for that chance.

“Going to the upper realm to rescue someone.”

Looking at the female emperor in white, Su Mu put down his fishing rod and replied calmly, “Rescuing someone is fine, but you need to pay the toll first.”

Even dogs come to meddle in the River of Time? Is there no end to the time-hopping nonsense?

Regarding those celestial emperors who recklessly meddle with the River of Time and disrupt its order, Su Mu remarked:

“The past is the past, and the present is the present.”

“If you all keep causing chaos, will I still be able to manage this river?”

“Furthermore, when you pass through the River of Time and travel to various worlds as the protagonists, shouldn’t you pay a toll?”

“Don’t have money now? Just take out a loan; come and sign an IOU.”

The major protagonists, nearly in tears, responded: "Before transmigration, I was burdened with a mortgage. Now that I’ve transmigrated, I have to deal with 'transmigration loans'?!" <<less
