🏆["Silver Medal" in "The Most Popular Novel" of "Meganovel Annual Writing Contest 2022" ]🏆 Chen Ming was transmigrated into a cultivation world with a super cheat gaming system. He will soar through heaven while living his life as he pleased!

Ji Xuanyuan once stood at the pinnacle of the cultivation world. Revered as the greatest sword cultivator in history and a peerless Heavenly Sovereign, he possessed unmatched strength, unrivaled talent, and the respect of countless cultivators. Yet in the end, he was betrayed by the only two people he had ever trusted—his sworn brother and the woman he loved. Their reason? The Nameless Scripture. With a dagger through his heart, Ji Xuanyuan believed everything had come to an end. Instead... He opened his eyes in the body of Lin Wuchen, a notorious silk-pants young master whose name was synonymous with disgrace. His cultivation was mediocre, his reputation was in ruins, and his future had already been written off by the world. But fate had one final surprise. The Nameless Scripture had never been stolen. It had followed him through death itself. Within its endless pages lay the Nihility Dao Scripture, a cultivation art unlike any other—one that demanded the cultivator return everything to nothingness before walking a path beyond all known Daos. Armed with the sword mastery accumulated over a lifetime and a Dao capable of erasing all things, Ji Xuanyuan begins forging a power the world has never witnessed. A path where destruction gives birth to transcendence, and nothingness becomes the foundation of everything. This time, he will not merely reclaim the peak he once stood upon. He will surpass it. And those who betrayed him will learn that some debts can only be repaid... in blood.

In a world where cultivation is the sacred path of body and soul, Lin Cang possesses neither. He awakens in the body of a young man with no meridians, no dantian, and no soul-sea—yet he lives. Shunned by the natural laws of heaven and earth, unable to walk the orthodox path, Lin Cang discovers a different way: the Dao of Form. Through mysterious patterns and ancient blueprints only he can perceive, he begins to reshape his own body—piece by piece, refinement by refinement—into something the world has never seen. In a realm of righteous sects, blade-wielding prodigies, and soul-bound cultivators, Lin Cang must conceal the truth of his existence while carving out his own legend. But the more he transforms, the more a question begins to stir: if he was never truly human to begin with, what will he become by the end? A tale of identity, power, and reinvention, The Puppet Dao blends classical cultivation adventure with a unique journey of self-crafted evolution. The path to immortality is written in flesh and spirit—but Lin Cang will write his in wood, will, and wonder.

In a cultivation realm that upholds the accumulation of good karma as the only path to enlightenment and power, an anomaly named Arion emerges. Unlike his peers who pursue virtue, Arion is mysteriously endowed with a unique System that grants him power from the most unholy sources: the sins, hatred, and regrets of others. The greater the conflict, tragedy, and suffering surrounding him, the more formidable the cultivation energy he absorbs, making him an increasingly powerful anomaly in a world that condemns the very source of his strength. However, this power comes with unexpected and heartbreaking consequences. Women who are deeply connected to Arion's emotions—whether through sympathy, conflict, or fate—will inevitably be bound to his "karmic chains." This bond is not the result of ordinary seduction or romance, but rather an unbreakable spiritual tie, making them part of Arion's cultivation process. Elders and elite sects view him as a threat, an embodiment of darkness that must be eradicated. On his journey, Arion must not only fight powerful enemies but also grapple with the morality of his own power and the fate of the women bound to him. Questions about the justice and truth of the karma believed by the world begin to surface, sparking doubt about the very foundations of their faith. Arion and his System are not a curse, but a cosmic correction tool, an entity destined to rebalance the order of the universe that has long since strayed. He is the "Balancer of Fate," tasked with restoring true balance between light and darkness, sin and virtue, even if it means destroying the foundations of the world he knows.

Betrayed by his girlfriend, a young professor receives an ancient superpower from an abandoned artifact to seek revenge and save the world. Henry never expected to find his girlfriend alone with another man when he came home from work. Not only that, but she defended her affair by saying that Henry's salary as a professor was too small to make her happy. In his predicament, an ancient tablet gives him the power to take revenge and conquer the world.

For a thousand years, the cultivation world has been under the dominance of women, a consequence of a heavenly curse that stripped all men of their ability to cultivate. Men live as second-class citizens, while female sects, matriarchal kingdoms, and Saintesses hold full control over the world's destiny. Amidst this deep-rooted order, an ordinary man named Li Feng unexpectedly awakens the Ancient Yang Core, long lost to history. The awakening of this primordial core not only restores his ability to cultivate but also makes him the only man in the entire realm capable of doing so—an anomaly that shakes the very foundations of the world. Li Feng's unique existence soon draws unavoidable attention when it is discovered that female cultivators who train with him experience a drastic surge in energy and unprecedented cultivation speed. This phenomenon transforms Li Feng from a social outcast into an object of intense desire as well as a major threat. Saintesses from holy sects see him as a tool to achieve their sacred goals; the Demon Queen desires him for personal power and her ambition to challenge the dominance of the holy sects; while the Dragon Princess views him as a cultivation partner with the potential for a deep bond or even greater personal ambitions. Li Feng, who was originally just an ordinary man thrown into a vortex of power, must learn to navigate political intrigue, dangers lurking around every corner, and the temptation of the power within him. He will be forced to choose a path among the factions fighting over him, each with its own agenda and morality. As he grows in strength and understanding, Li Feng begins to uncover the secrets behind the ancient heavenly curse and the true connection between his Ancient Yang Core and the greater destiny of the world.

Upon their not-so-great first-time meeting, began an odd, but thrilling journey of two youths through the myriad realms of the cultivation world. Arguing with each other, arguing with passersby, stealing from each other, stealing from passersby, chasing each other for several kilometers, and being chased through several continents... But most importantly, growing closer and stronger together; enough to share the troubles that come from the other's strange identity... .... Violent spatial distortions appeared in the void before a figure flew out in a disheveled manner. An Mo reacted almost instantly to the distortions that appeared; however, he was a fraction of a second late. He was unable to dodge, and so the figure successfully used his clean, slick black shell as a steppingstone before they could fall into the stream. Like a swallow gently flowing in the sky, this person drifted to the bank of the stream without even looking back, leaving An Mo completely enraged as he stuck out his head to look at the clear footprint on his back. Before the disheveled figure could go far, An Mo opened his mouth and let out a furious shriek. “Ahhh!! You little bastard! I’ll fight you to the death! Don’t run if you have the guts!!”

Xue Wuchen ruled an empire through forty years of unmatched cultivation and unforgiving fear — until seven of his most trusted followers put a blade through his chest in his own throne room. He should have stayed dead. Instead, he wakes up in the dying body of Ren Xiao, the weakest disciple in the history of the Azure Hollow Sect — a boy with no cultivation root, no name worth remembering, and three seniors already standing over him with drawn swords. His mind is still a tyrant's. His body can barely hold a sword. To survive, he must relearn cultivation from absolute zero, all while hiding the one truth that would get him killed twice: that the "nobody" everyone despises is the same man an entire empire was built on murdering. But someone already suspects. An elder who flinches at a single flicker of light. A sharp-eyed disciple who notices too much. And a killer in the dark, sent by someone who should have no reason to fear a nameless failure at all. The empire that rose from his death still calls him a monster. The people hunting his bloodline haven't stopped — they've just forgotten what he looks like now. And somewhere beneath the lies both sides have told for a generation, the real reason he was betrayed is still buried, waiting for a weak boy with a tyrant's mind to dig it back up. He wasn't given a second chance to be forgiven. He was given one to make sure they never see him coming.

In a realm where gods play dice with mortal souls, a cursed boy refuses his fate. Born with a tempered body blessed by the heavens, Kirin Arcanus should’ve been a legend. Instead, he became an outcast, cursed, shunned, and exiled from the very clan that should’ve raised him as their heir. The demon that killed his parents didn’t vanish... it slumbered inside him, waiting. Powerless. Mocked. Weak. Kirin claws his way through life with nothing but grit, will, and the whisper of an ancient, forbidden path to strength. When he’s finally granted a second chance at cultivation, it comes at a brutal cost, awakening something dark, something hungry. Inside the hallowed walls of the Academy, friends become enemies. Trust is currency. And betrayal? That’s the tuition fee. His closest companion, Seth, hides a twisted purpose. His allies? Torn between love, legacy, and lies. As realms collide, bloodlines unravel, and demonic whispers grow louder, Kayden must choose, become the hero they never saw coming… or embrace the chaos he was born to unleash. He didn’t ask to be a weapon. But he sure as hell is going to use it.

In the mountains sat a small village, populated by normal people. Cows mooed, pigs ate, and humans did their fieldwork. On usual days like these, a normal person in the village would enjoy some fried chicken under the shade of a tree. "Mmm, delicious chicken..." Not everyone had access to the chicken. Only a certain family did. But as time passed, someone arrived in the village and took away the items that helped the villagers live their lives. Some young people left with the man, thinking that they would strike it big. And one of those people was the owner of the chickens. Bai Feng, a connoisseur of food, a monster that's heavier than iron, a fool that's half smart and half dumb. Cultivation isn't for everyone, but with luck, everything is possible. Could Bai Feng cultivate and reach the apex? Or would he have to stumble along the way due to the passions of life, increasing the difficulty of his path? But one thing was for certain. Bai Feng would surely enjoy life along the way. Cultivation or not.
