When the Gods abandoned our world, they didn't just strip away their blessings—they stole Death itself. Humanity was left to rot. Afflicted by a cosmic curse known as the Ever-Blight, humans no longer die. Instead, their souls are trapped in decaying, immortal vessels, transforming cities into screaming purgatories of Hollows—mindless, breathing corpses driven by eternal agony. Elijah lost everything to the Blight. Forced to wander the ashen wastelands alone, his only goal was survival. But when the black veins of the Blight finally crept up his arm, he didn't turn into a Hollow. Instead, an Angel of Death descended, tore his soul from his rotting flesh, and cast him into the Crucible of Genesis—a savage, fractured dimension where rogue gods, celestial horrors, and primordial demons wage an endless war. Here, true death is a luxury, and the "deceased" of Earth are reborn as Vanguards, immortal soldiers forced to fight for the very deities who cursed their world. But Elijah didn't awaken as a mere soldier. He awakened the Akashic Mandate, an ancient, forbidden cosmic law etched into his soul. It grants him a terrifying power: the ability to permanently devour the souls, magic, and lifespans of any monster, demon, or god he slays. In a universe where true death is extinct, Elijah becomes the Reaper. To break the curse on Earth and avenge humanity, he must carve a bloody path to the throne of the Gods. But as he devours the divine and the demonic alike, Elijah faces a horrifying choice: will he restore the cycle of life and death, or will he become a calamity far worse than the Gods he seeks to destroy?

In a world where cultivation is the path to purity and power, Kael, a low-ranking sect disciple who was always underestimated, finds himself on the brink of death after being brutally betrayed by his own sect. As his soul wavers, a mysterious system awakens in his mind: [Sin Cultivation System Activated]. This forbidden system offers Kael the power of the seven deadly sins—taboo energy that even demons fear. To activate and strengthen each sin, Kael must forge deep bonds with powerful women, where each woman represents the essence of a single sin, transforming him from a victim into the hunter. As Kael gathers this forbidden power, takes revenge on his betrayers, and builds his strength, he inevitably draws the attention of the Orthodox Immortals, the guardians of purity who view his cultivation as the most heinous heresy. Kael must navigate a world that sees him as an existential threat, mastering the powers of his sins—from Lust which enhances vital energy, Wrath which boosts combat prowess, to Greed which multiplies resources and Envy which mimics an opponent's techniques—all while building an unconventional circle of allies from the powerful women bound to him. However, Kael's path carries a terrifying destiny. Ancient legends foretell that if all seven sins are united within a single vessel, they will awaken the Sovereign of Sin, a primordial being capable of devouring the energy of gods and collapsing the universe. Kael soon realizes that he may be the destined vessel for this ancient entity, and every step toward mastering his sins brings him closer to the Sovereign's awakening.

House Valin was once the greatest sovereign bloodline in all nine realms. Then Emrys Valin destroyed it for love. Blinded by his obsession with Diane Croft, Emrys signed a contract that was meant to unite two noble Houses. Instead, it became the chain that dragged House Valin into ruin. Its wealth was stolen. Its allies were hunted down. Its enemies rose from the shadows. And the family that once protected the realms fell. He watched his father, the mighty Kane Valin, executed before the eyes of the realm. He watched his sister burn alive inside their home. The powers that were meant to be his to inherit turn their backs on him. For three centuries, Emrys wandered through war, death, and collapsing realms, trying to restore the order he helped destroy. He fought monsters, demons, apex beasts, and primordial horrors, climbing toward the final trial that would decide whether he would reach the last gates of Ascension and become an Empyrean…or perish forgotten. But at the end of his journey, guilt still caught up with him. And he failed. The realms fell. His companions died. And Emrys Valin perished with them. Then he opened his eyes. Three hundred years in the past. Back to the very night he doomed House Valin. The banquet. The contract. The beginning of the end. This time, Emrys will not fall for the lies. This time, he will reclaim everything stolen from his bloodline. And this time… The Realms will remember why House Valin was once feared among the divine! And he will etch his name into a place where not even his forefathers could reach!

Ren, a young man considered trash in his sect due to his inability to cultivate, lives in the shadows of ridicule and ostracization. However, he harbors a secret both terrifying and extraordinary: every time he nearly dies from a technique, his body strangely absorbs and copies that technique permanently, making it his own. From simple fire punches to lethal holy sword strikes, or even destruction by legendary domains, Ren rises again with the enemy's power now a part of him. This unique condition transforms his suffering into a source of infinite power, propelling him from a loser into an unrivaled entity in the world of cultivation. Ren's journey begins from the bottom, using his first "death" to master basic techniques he couldn't even learn before. With ingenuity and courage, he begins to strategically seek out greater "deaths," allowing himself to be struck by stronger and more dangerous techniques. Every "death" is a rebirth, every wound is a lesson, and every trauma is a power-up. His reputation as the "Copycat Immortal" begins to spread, though most only see him as a mysterious and terrifying cultivator, without understanding the true source of his power. He must face increasingly powerful enemies, from sect rivals to regional tyrants, and finally ancient forces that threaten the existence of the universe. As time passes, Ren not only accumulates a vast arsenal of countless techniques but also begins to understand the true nature of his condition. Is it a curse, a blessing, or a cosmic anomaly? His quest takes him beyond the boundaries of the mortal world, challenging Gods and Demons, and uncovering conspiracies hidden for thousands of years. With every "death" that brings him closer to total destruction, Ren instead moves closer to the peak of immortality

Two weapons clanged. A sturdy long stick with a large mace on top was swayed aside by a strong female warrior. With her short reddish hair and a menacing yell, she trusted her chain mace towards a tall girl with a long pointy tail and protruding fangs. She barely dodged her attack, throwing her body to the ground of the arena. The audience behind the flimsy fence roared and cheered in a frenzy. They were packed tight around the rocky walls, thirsting for blood. The fallen girl heaved, holding her weapon tight. Standing up, she narrated, "Someone once joked 'Go to Heaven for the climate, Hell for the company'. Only fools can believe this to be true." Her opponent cackled with a smirk, ready for another attack. "Do you want to know what it's like down here? Well, let me tell you.” The woman in question entered this world as a very old and very ill woman. Surrounded by her loved ones, she closed her eyes and entered a hell-like dimension. It resembled a large city floating on a lake of lava, called Helltown. With very little resources, she had to find a way to survive. Luckily, there was hope. The woman used a spell to become a beautiful young woman with super strength. Disguised, she fought demons, escaped the slums, ended up in a brothel and then as a gladiator in an arena. With many enemies and shifty allies, she finally managed to catch a break and get to the top floors, where the intrigues truly start. Along the way, we learn more about her life on Earth and the possible reasons for her being there. Can she stay sane among such evil? What is Helltown, and does it affect the life on Earth? A lot, actually.
