Faces In The Closet

At the absolute peak of the cosmic firmament, Baron Colgate —the legendary “Void Sovereign” who dominated the universe for three centuries—faces his ultimate god-level ascension. However, the trial triggers a devastating Soulbreak Illusion, forcing him to relive the bitter regrets of his youth on Earth. Trapped in a nightmare orchestrated by his past enemy, Matt Windgate , Baron witnesses the brutal death of his fiancée, Juliana, and remembers the tragic destruction of his family. Overwhelmed by fury and despair, his mind breaks, his cultivation undergoes a demonic deviation, and he is obliterated by divine heavenly lightning. Instead of permanent death, Baron jolts awake in mid-May2018, finding himself in the cramped economy class of a commercial flight landing in Tuntadel City. He has been reborn into his teenage years, right before his life fell apart. Though his cosmic energy, Soul Core, and divine relics are completely gone, Baron realizes he possesses the ultimate advantage: three hundred years of pristine memories, including flawless cultivation techniques, alchemy formulas, and artifact-forging expertise. On an energy-depleted Earth where the hidden martial arts system only reaches basic grandmaster levels, Baron’s superior transcendental knowledge operates on an entirely higher dimension. Recognizing that his past failure stemmed from an unstable emotional foundation, he resolves to rebuild his power step-by-step. With his family, Malica, and Juliana still alive, everything can be salvaged. Armed with absolute detachment and the chilling confidence of an ancient cosmic emperor, Baron steps off the plane ready to seamlessly counter his old bullies, protect his loved ones, and systematically dismantle the elite houses that once trampled him. The show has begun, and the Void Sovereign will have his revenge.

Kaelen Ashwright was born blessed, marked by the Convergence Star and prophesied to ascend to godhood. They lied. At nineteen, he discovered the truth: the Star wasn't a blessing but a beacon, calling to the Devourers, cosmic horrors that feast on divine essence. Every hundred generations, the Celestial Elders sacrifice one "blessed" soul to buy another century of peace. His father led the ritual. His mentor bound him to the altar. His betrothed drove the blade into his heart. As the Devourers consumed him, Kaelen's last thought was hatred. He wakes as Zain, a crippled street rat with shattered meridians. But Kaelen's soul carries fragments of the Convergence Star, and if he cultivates in this body, the Devourers won't sense him. Using forbidden methods that consume his enemies' essence, Kaelen climbs through the Nine Heavens with an unlikely team: Ryn, a demon-blooded assassin; Kael, a failed cultivator turned weapon merchant; Lyssa, a scholar investigating missing "blessed" children. Together they uncover the conspiracy: The Elders aren't protecting humanity from the Devourers. They're farming it for them. As Kaelen grows stronger, he begins to uncover a lot of mysteries, a lot of hidden mysteries in the realm, like Celestia being reborn alongside him seven times, forced to kill him again and again. Now Kaelen faces an impossible choice: complete his revenge and doom his mother forever, save the Nine Heavens and let his family go unpunished, or break the cycle and face the Primordial Void, which has been manipulating everyone since the beginning. What will a cultivator reincarnated in the body of a cripple do? Find out in this awesome fantasy story titled, Redeeming the Broken Star.

Matthew stood there, trying to keep his emotions in check. "I did everything I could for you, Rachel. I sacrificed so much—" She cut him off with a bitter laugh. "Sacrificed?

"Ugh! Grr hmgh..!" Marcus grunts with effort as he climbs out of the cavern onto the leveled ground of the dark cave. "Argh!" He sighed and exhaled heavily, taking in a lungful of oxygen only to exhale more heavily as he crawled to rest his back on the cave wall. "Damn..." He huffed heavily, panting and aching. His fingers had blistered, aching, and bleeding, his back felt at its breaking point, his muscles could hardly respond to him anymore, and his stomach groaned relentlessly for food. He had collected the bow from the stream of luminous fluid, strapped it to his back, and climbed out of the cavern. Marcus had never been so out of his elements before, and climbing had never been an imagination much less doing it fatigued and hungry. Marcus laughed, who knew he could ever go this hungry and still climb several meters out of an underground cave? No one. Although he has no idea how long ago he had left his hotel room or how far he had walked to the forest, he knows he will have to do it all over again. "Ah f@#k!" ***
