It was the twenty-third year of Tianxi*. Rumours traversed the streets that the all-knowing Imperial Advisor suffered a great calamity and could not help but enter seclusion to focus on cultivation. However, the commoners secretly clapped their hands and rejoiced. In the winter of the same year, a young monk appeared in the Hui Zhou Fu’s Ningyang District. ... more>>

The monk’s monastic title was Xuan Min, his memories all missing, yet was versed in the arts of Feng Shui Kan Yu**. On the very first day arriving in Ningyang, he did not hesitate to take care of a dangerous manor, picking up Xue Xian, who was hidden there, along the way.

Since then, Xue Xian – who had been all-powerful in the first half of his life – gained a new life pursuit: to get this baldy*** who had only a good outer appearance to take his last breath and “smile from his grave”.

Xue Xian: If you are unhappy, then I will be happy. If you die, I’ll laugh my ass off.

【if you stare into the abyss, the abyss stares back at you】... more>>

The abyss, the most feared thing by the human race today. The animals infected by the abyss mutate into monsters, and humans are reduced to walking corpses.

Lu Tinghan is an abyss watcher. He has been guarding the world’s most terrifying abyss for ten years.

This abyss is not only scary, but also strange.

Throw the garbage down, after a few days, the garbage will be buried safely next to the abyss – like someone took a shovel and tossed it all night to bury them.

Throw hazardous waste down, after a few days, the waste will be thrown back with unbridled fury.

Lu Tinghan: ?

Ten years later, he left the post and became the youngest general in the Alliance.

The next day, the abyss was also gone.

——The whole thing disappeared and turned into flat land.

The whole world was shocked.

Until one day, there was a knock on Lu Tinghan’s door.

A boy with little devil horns stood outside the door, with delicate features and bright eyes. Obviously, he was scared to death, but he still plucked up the courage to say: “Hello, I, I am Abyss, can you continue to stare at me? QAQ”

He added: “I have helped you bury the garbage every day, oh!”

During their long time together, Lu Tinghan learned two things:

1. Staring at your abyss every day, the abyss will be happy

2. When the abyss is happy, it will purr toward you <<less

The thousand-year-old ghost Ren Li has always been the final boss in the last level of the escape game “Dream Control”. But one day, he suddenly became a player, breaking his way through with humans.... more>>

In the game dungeon, Ren Li educates various bosses, slaps players who have bad intentions, and blinds everyone with various simple actions.

But… there is always a person, no matter how cruel Ren Li is, he will remain unmoved, and even dare to hold him and act like a baby.

That person is Pei Jingling.

*

Pei Jingling acting like a baby: “Brother Li, gimme hug.”

Ren Li immediately had black lines on his face: “You stand up straight for me, don’t rush on me! Don’t you have bones?”

Pei Jingling became more desperate: “I still want a kiss…”

“Shameless…” Ren Li scolded him fiercely and embraced the person tightly in his arms, “Come, kiss me.” <<less

– The planet [Earth] has entered the abnormal state [Apocalypse].... more>>

– You have failed in saving the Earth. The Authority, [Vintage Clock (EX)] rewinds the world’s time.

For Yu Jitae, it was a message he had seen many times.

It was tiresome.

It would have been great had he died with everyone else.

But he couldn’t, for his authorities that made him the strongest existence, brought him back in time whenever he died.

And even with his strength, he couldn’t protect the broad earth against the maddened dragons.

– The world’s time will soon begin.

As the clock resumed ticking in the direction it should, his 7th iteration came to a start.

Fortunately, he finally had the gist of it. <<less

Even until many years later, Lin Xi would still dream.... more>>

In his dream, he was just an ordinary person, his companions didn’t die, they didn’t turn into terrible monsters.

Helios didn’t have a positioning error, it never lost its coordinates in vast space, nor did it have to make a crash landing on that mysterious planet.

However, when he opened his eyes and faced the creatures surrounding him —

— Those compound crimson eyes, that horrifying elytra and that armour… and the thick pheromones lingering in the air —

Lin Xi would wake up once again.

His dreams will always be just dreams.

And his reality is still as cruel as ever.

He is no longer human. He is their Gyne, the Queen of Worms, and the Mother of Insects.

……

At the same time, he is also His only and eternal love.

“You know that you can never be that person, you’re just…”

“I’m just a bug in his skin, my dear, I know what you have to say, but so what? Except for me, you have no other choice in this space.” Xavier smiled and flapped his wings, he tilted his head and said to Lin Xi. “Of course, you can also choose to raise another King Insect… hiss… but even then, you still need to be with me, right?” <<less

The hearse with the weird odor slowed to a stop before the entrance. The sound of pebbles could be heard bouncing on the ceiling. There were footsteps coming from the corridor, and there seemed to be someone sawing next door. The door knob to the room rattled slightly, and the faucet in the bathroom kept dripping even though it had been screwed shut. There was a rubber ball that rolled on its own underneath the bed. Wet footsteps started to surface one after another on the floor.... more>>

Game Tester Mu Sichen was pitted and transmigrated into a holographic game. The game was an apocalyptic world after a cataclysmic event, where there were unnameable monsters everywhere, and they had divided the world into different towns.... more>>

The monsters had divided the world into different towns, and the survivors were scattered in these towns. Mu Sichen waved his pickaxe and swung it to kill an unidentifiable monster that terrorized the town.

A teary-eyed survivor took the tools and asked expectantly, “Won’t you lead us to build a home?”

Mu Sichen: “I am only a trainee, the ideal home is still to be built by you, I am only responsible for grabbing the site.”

So Mu Sichen carried his pickaxe through the different towns and snatched the territory, and accidentally snatched Qin Zhou, who was called “the last hope of mankind”.

The leader of the survivors chased after him, “You robbed the wrong person, Qin Zhou is the protector of our safe zone!”

Mu Sichen looked at Qin Zhou, who was holding him tightly. He was a bit silly. He seemed willing to be robbed by him-

The Qin family had a secret, they guarded human beings in the last ages with their strength. He was going crazy. Each person with the ability of “field” would eventually become an indescribable monster.

In order to delay the attack, Qin Zhou became weaker and weaker. Until one day, a man with a pickaxe came to the safety zone. Qin Zhou immediately hugged him and whispered, “Take me away quickly. ”

The man pinched Qin Zhou’s hand, “I can take you away, but loosen your grip, I’m a little out of breath.”

“Oh.” Qin Zhou agreed but his grip tightened. <<less

Ten-year boyfriend is marrying a rich family; Fang Xingzhou broke up with him in sadness.

After the breakup, the boyfriend seems to have gone crazy.

He launched a frantic assault on Fang Xingzhou, acting temperamental, expressing jealousy everywhere, crazy, more and more unlike a normal human ……

At a certain family dinner, he opened a medical report in front of the whole family.

“My wife,” he said with deep emotion and a beautiful, eye-catching smile, “I am pregnant, and we are going to be together forever and ever.”

Fang Xingzhou, a doctor: “?”

Who is pregnant? How? Using where?

Although he felt that this matter was incredibly weird, after seeing the DNA report, Fang Xingzhou still took responsibility.

The misunderstanding about the marriage was resolved and they got back together.

Pregnant boyfriend’s possessiveness gets stronger than ever, Fang Xingzhou patiently took care for ten months, fifteen months, twenty months …… finally waited for the birth of the child.

He guarded the night and rushed over when he heard any activity-

The …… beautiful and incomparable lover was left with only a head, and the room was full of writhing tent**les, and in the middle of the tent**les was a bloody egg that was protected.

” Honey,” the head spoke with a face full of happiness, “look at our child.”

.

And then later.

Things got even weirder.

Fang Xingzhou looked at the little monster that hugged him and called him daddy, and saw a hint of cuteness in those pairs of scarlet pupil-less eyes.

His lover hugged him from behind and rubbed his shoulder tenderly, his voice cold and deep, “The child looks so much like you.”

Fang Xingzhou was silent for a long time and pinched his son’s tent**les.

Well ……

One day, Li Yu transmigrated into a fish. Furthermore, this fish even had a master. This master was the sinister and terrifying, mute tyrant from a novel. The system gave Li Yu a task. If he wanted to change back into a human, he had to obtain the tyrant’s heart. ... more>>

Li Yu full of tears: System, please wake up. I’m only a fish. He can’t even speak. How can we interact?

System: Stop jabbering. To take down the tyrant, you must attack his heart.

Li Yu: Can I ask, does the tyrant have a heart–

Li Yu did his best to blow bubbles at the tyrant, but ended up being captured by the tyrant and raised carefully in a huge, ginormous…… fish tank. The life of a fish was filled with all sorts of blessings.

Everyday, Mu Tianchi watched the little carp swim around happily, pondering when this fish would finally transform into a human.

The little carp didn’t know. It’s not that the tyrant had no heart, it’s just that he already gave it away to the little carp that accidentally saved his life. <<less

To live and to die for another, and to become a stepping stone for their success.

One day, a dragon egg waiting to recognise the ‘Chosen One’ as its Master through a blood rite suddenly hatched prematurely beside the ‘Villain’.

After seeing the strange and dangerous outside world, the weak and pitiful Chen Xing only wanted to hide.

But the man she was connected to by destiny was truly fearful – he even loved to seek places of danger.

Sob, she’s still a dragon baby, so why is her life so tough?

Everyone: You are a majestic Silver Dragon!

Chen Xing: But what does that have to do with me being weak, cowardly, and afraid of death?

Qin Ji never thought that in his past life, he’d die with a dragon and, in this life, be reborn with her too.

But looking at this gluttonous and lazy dragon who loved luxury and pleasure, he’d often wonder whether it was his memory or the world he was reborn in that was wrong. <<less

《Devil》 tells the story of Chi You, the protagonist shou, who was killed by someone and cultivated for revenge with the help of Feng Li, the protagonist gong. When Jiang Luo woke up, he transmigrated into the body of the cannon fodder that killed the protagonist shou.... more>>

What’s even worse, he transmigrated at the time when the protagonist shou was already killed by the original body.

At the funeral, Jiang Luo was pushed in front of the coffin.

The deceased body of the protagonist shou in front of him was serene, with a smile at the corner of his lips. However, Jiang Luo knew that he had turned into a malicious spirit and was eyeing covetously at him.

The more dangerous it was, the calmer Jiang Luo became. When his desire for survival reached the critical point, he knelt on the ground with a puff, and forced himself to cry.

With his sincere emotion, he said: “Chi You, I love you so much. Please don’t leave me…”

The chilliness around him smothered slightly. <<less

Jin-ah dedicates her life to caring for her stepmother. ... more>>

One day, a peculiar lawyer pays her a visit, revealing the unfortunate news of her grandmother's passing and his intention to claim the inheritance as per her will.

The stipulation for the inheritance is that Jin-ah must ensure no one enters the mansion she is set to inherit.

Deeming it a manageable task, she agrees, securing the funds needed to make a fresh start.

Everything progresses smoothly—her business thrives, and her relationship with the once-strained stepmother deepens.

However, this harmony is short-lived when her stepmother embezzles funds and disappears.

In the midst of financial turmoil, Jin-ah is approached by strangers expressing a desire to film her grandmother's mansion, seeking her permission.

She rejects their proposal, as it is the only way to continue receiving monthly payments from the trust.

Subsequently, an arrogant and shallow man waves money in front of her, making an audacious proposition.

"With your permission, I'll give you a few more of these. One for every time we film the mansion, how about that?"

After refusing with profanity, Jin-Ah forgot about their existence.

That is until the police contact her, reporting an unauthorized entry into the mansion, resulting in a tragic accident— one dead and four injured.

Upon her arrival at the previously unvisited mansion, the rescuer makes an unsettling declaration.

"No! There's one more down there! There were six of us!”

***

"I understand that you think I'm weird. Until last year, I would have been an as*hole who believed in the money and the power of the family and did whatever the f*ck I wanted.”

It was such a perfect description that Jin-ah didn't need to add anything.

“I guess you could say that Kno-Dearg Manor gave me a new lease on life because I felt the need to change a lot since then."

The man, now an uncannily different person, extended his hand to Jin-ah.

"Consider the old Lan Isford dead.”

***

"I want to eat.”

I want to eat that.

So, I approached and grabbed her.

My stomach churned at the sight of the person looking at me in surprise.

Regardless of whether there were people around or not, I wanted to swallow her whole, leaving not a single strand of hair behind.

I carefully smelled it.

Mine. Something for me to eat.

My tongue, which had been suppressing hunger, eagerly twisted in the mouth filled with something sweet.

But then I found out.

That she tastes better on the inside. <<less

One day, he was suddenly forced to become a novice anchor in the Nightmare live broadcast room.

Wen Jianyan: “…..”

A newcomer became the most-watched anchor because he was too good at deceiving people.

He lied to his teammates to deceive the audience and NPCs. He could deceive people as well as ghosts.

Sooner or later this guy will overturn!

There were more and more spectators who were gloating with schadenfreude, looking forward for that day.

He was the first animal on this planet to have emerged from the waters to walk on land.... more>>

He sat on the sandy beach, looking down at his hands.

He had five fingers on each hand, joined together by blue webbing. He stared at his hands. The webbing disappeared, seemingly absorbed into his body.

His skin became hard and dry. Textures began to form.

He sat there, pondering.

Who am I?

He seemed to be experiencing rather than thinking.

He could sense the damp heat of water vapour caressing his body; hear the quiet sloshing of water from afar, wave after wave; feel the grains of white sand digging into his skin.

He experienced things. But when he reached with his hand, he could not seem to grasp what they were.

He reached again and touched the corners of his mouth, noticing its upward arch. He made an expression known to humans as a smile.

Soon, the expression shifted into something else.

He sat there, cried and laughed, crying and laughing, as his chest rioted with brimming emotions. <<less

Lin Qiushi soon found that a sense of disharmony and incongruity began to pervade everything around him.

Then, one odd day, he pushed open a door, and he discovered that the hallway he was familiar with turned into a boundless corridor.

At both ends of this corridor were twelve, identical iron gates.

He pushed one of the doors

Thus, the story begins.

Ruan Nanzhu said to Lin Qiushi, “When you gaze long into the abyss, the abyss will also gaze back into you.”

Upon hearing this, Lin Qiushi sank into deep contemplation. He then pulled down the zipper of his trousers and aimed at the abyss…
