He was content to a point, married and was about to start a family with his newly wedded wife. The top 1% of this world have advanced in human evolution, all by design of course. Technology to give a person 10x the normal intellect of a bright mind. A secret science that the elites came together to create. With our Mc spearheading the operation. The research yielded successful and practical results, but greed and betrayal sent everything to another direction. The the results were promising but the effect of this technology were temporary, once you've played the elite game of life at 10x speed any other level below feels like you've already lost to your opponents. Mc had discovered a way to make this technology permanent, word got out and even his trusted circle were after his life. These people almost succeed, but to protect his life and legacy mc split the process to archiving permanent superior intellect into three parts, two physical (separate rings) ond one metaphysical, a subconscious memory that can only be unlocked when both rings are in contact and on his finger. During the battle to save his life and legacy, an accident happened that almost claimed that life. He survived because of the tech he used to protect himself. But it came at cost. He lost the man he was.

They burned his legacy. But some ghosts refuse to stay dead. Adrian Knight was born to inherit the empire that ruled everything business, influence, and power. The Knight family name opened doors, but behind those doors lay betrayal, greed, and a truth too dark to survive the light. When a scandal framed him for crimes he didn’t commit, his world shattered overnight. The family he trusted turned on him. The woman he loved watched his empire fall. And in one violent night, Adrian Knight disappeared leaving behind a world that believed he was gone forever. Years later, a man called Adrian Cole emerges from the ashes. He’s not the golden heir they once knew. He’s colder now, smarter, dangerous a man carved by silence and vengeance. To the world, he is a self-made billionaire with no past. But to those who wronged him, he is the storm they never saw coming. His return shakes the foundations of the empire that betrayed him. But when he crosses paths with Elena, the woman he once loved now bound to his greatest enemy, Victor Knight old wounds begin to bleed again. The fire of revenge he’s carried for years threatens to consume him from the inside. Love and hate blur until he can no longer tell them apart. Adrian came back to destroy his past, not to relive it. Yet every step he takes brings him closer to the man he swore he buried. Every truth he uncovers forces him to question what kind of monster he’s become in the name of justice. Will he reclaim what was stolen from him, or lose himself to the darkness he’s been chasing? When the forgotten son returns, will vengeance set him free or finally destroy him?

Aleric died once already. Pushed off a rooftop by the same people who made his life a living hell. He thought that was the end. But then he woke up in Jusavia. He was in a new world, in a new infant body and a fresh chance to start all over again. He made himself one promise: never again would he be hopeless and weak. Never at the mercy of people who saw him as nothing. At fifteen, everyone in Jusavia awakens their Class. It's everything. Your power, your future, your entire worth as a person. Fire mages who burn through armies. Healers who pull people back from death itself. Aleric's Awakening Ceremony was supposed to change his life. It did. Just not the way anyone expected. While everyone else got their shiny new Class, fire this, sword that, holy whatever, Aleric got a blank screen and a room full of whispers. Classless. His father looked at him like he'd just dragged garbage into the house. His fiancée laughed in his face and tore up their engagement contract in front of the whole academy. The nobles who used to bow to his family name? They walked past him like he didn't exist. The academy sent a letter the same day. "We regret to inform you that your enrollment has been revoked." And so, they exiled him and shipped him off to the Frontier Training Grounds, a glorified dumping ground for failures and corpses. Aleric figured he'd die in the first dungeon. Just like he died on that rooftop. But this time, he wasn't going down without a fight. Then he killed his first monster, and something changed. Absorption activated: Skill acquired. He had gotten a skill that was going to change his life in ways he couldn't dare to fathom.

Does the death of billions of people even have any meaning to it? It's like once the number passes a certain threshold we humans are unable to imagine the severity such a scale entails. The once prosperous Immortal Domain witnessed its destruction due to an unknown disaster. A disaster that wiped out 2/3 of its entire population in mere hours. Billions, no, even trillions of lives might have been lost. After the Immortal Domain's Destruction, it was split into the Fragmented Lower Realms and the High Heavens known as the Upper Realm. However, all was not lost. From the flickering embers of life that remained, and after countless years, an Era that would eventually be known as the Resurgence Era was starting to show its first signs of brilliance. These first sparks were located in a Fragmented Realm called the Wither Daemon Realm, in which there was a planet named Daiyu. On this planet, heavenly prodigies that were born with one of the thirty rare Legendary Physiques were starting to pop up like common weeds. Longwei, a loudmouth and arrogant brat was born into the Wu Clan while possessing the third-rank Legendary Physique, the Dao Physique. He was also known as one of the six monster-level geniuses on planet Daiyu. His brother Longmin, his opposite, a quiet and reserved boy, though was an equally terrifying genius in his own right, had faded into obscurity since his birth and was estranged by their father after a certain catastrophic incident. This story is the supposed legends of two dragons, who through a journey of bloodshed and betrayal, led their clan to unify the Immortal Domain and stand above Demons and Gods as powerful existences. This is the Immortal Journey of the Wu Clan's Twin Dragons.

As he considered the attack on Atlantis City, Drake's face darkened for a moment, but he shook his head to clear his mind and looked the king in the eye.I can only say that I was going about my business in the city from which I came when it was suddenly bombed.I was, as far as I could tell, the only one who made it through that.After that, I fell down a shaft, struck my head as I fell, and eventually fell asleep.Next thing I knew, I was here in chains.I'd rather keep things that way;I really do not want to discuss my past right now.Everything just went missing. The observers debated what they had heard as more murmurs and hisses filled the grotto. "I'm expecting that by 'bombarded' you imply that your city was gone after, right?"The crowd's murmuring was stopped when the king asked. Shortly after, Drake replied, "Completely leveled."Bastian tapped the high position arm with a claw a couple of times as he suspected peacefully.After that, he stood up straight and spoke loudly enough for everyone to hear. Bastian stated, "I would easily be able to say you’re not guilty of anything" if this decision were simpler to make.While the crowd erupted into a hystearical commotion, Andromon and Prismo shared a brief glance, displaying a hint of surprise.However, "I'm afraid I can't just let you off the hook, after your involvement with the actual thief's escape," he continued, immediately silencing the grotto.

This is a world where the dead conquer the living, where the gods have forsaken humanity, condemning it to its own demise by turning the world into a kingdom-building progression game. Yun Kai, a prince blind from birth is constantly being bullied by his royal siblings and even fellow noble heirs. During a faithful encounter in the mountains, he accidentally shattered a glass ball that changed everything. The glass ball was a mystical artifact sealed by the First World King. This triggered a world-changing event: the entire Desolate Martial World transforms into a game-like system centered on warfare and kingdom building, forcing all the living beings into an era of endless conquest. Fortunately, he acquired rewards that included a God-Level Village Building Token, a Unique Architectural Blueprint, and some additional techniques. Within those rewards is the mysterious Spiritual Ocean Sutra, a cultivation technique that strengthens the practitioner's soul consciousness, spiritual sense, and allows him to devour souls. Still, at a high cost, which is that he will lose a bit of humanity every time he does so, and by the end of the day, nobody could have guessed whether he would be the hero that saves the world, or the demon that destroys it. Relying on his improved instincts as he finally began to cultivate, he realizes a huge conspiracy is underfoot within the Desolate Martial World. In order to solve the mysteries around him, he must rely on his ability and the powerful but baffling Spiritual Ocean Sutra. Countless enemies obstruct him as he attempts to climb to the peak of the cultivation world by creating the most powerful Dynasty. Fate destined him to be nothing but a chess piece, but he would not bow to destiny, or to the will of the heavens.

Arthur Vance was a titan of modern industry—a ruthless corporate strategist who mastered the art of the hostile takeover. But when a betrayal ends his life in the 21st century, he wakes up in the body of Julian Valerius, the disgraced, "waste" illegitimate son of a dying Emperor. ​In a world governed by ancient steel and noble bloodlines, Julian is a man with a target on his back. His six half-brothers, each a powerful warlord or cunning politician, have already signed his death warrant to secure their path to the throne. He has no army, no wealth, and a reputation as a drunken fool. ​But he has a mind the medieval world isn't prepared for. ​Using his knowledge of modern economics, chemical engineering, and psychological warfare, Julian begins his ascent from the mud of the slums. ​He turns sour grain into Liquid Gold, a distilled spirit that corrupts the empire’s elite and funds his private shadow army. ​He recruits Elena Vance, a legendary but betrayed General, turning her into the sword that will carve his path to glory. ​He builds a network of "Rats"—the beggars and outcasts—creating the first global intelligence agency in history. ​As the Empire spirals into a bloody civil war, Julian doesn't just fight for survival; he executes a takeover. From the smoke of the slums to the gold of the high court, the "Waste Prince" will prove that in the face of modern logic, even the strongest crown is nothing more than gilded lead. ​Witness the birth of an Empire where gold speaks louder than swords, and a bastard's shadow looms over the world.

The city calls him “nobody.” On paper, he’s just a broke young man with nothing but scars and a bad attitude. But in the shadows, Caden Pierce is the Septamillionaire Heir—the ruthless King of the Underworld. His enemies fear him. The elite don’t even know he exists… yet. After ten years of brutal training, Caden’s ready to tear his enemies apart and claim everything that’s his. When the spoiled heiress Vivian Montgomery is thrown into his arms—literally—he gets a taste of power, privilege, and the poison of high society. She calls him a “nobody.” Her circle mocks him. They have no idea he owns the ground they walk on. “You think money makes you untouchable?” Caden smirks, stepping over his latest rival. “Sweetheart, I buy men like you for sport and toss them out with yesterday’s trash.” But when the old-money dynasties scheme to bury him, and gunmen storm the club with Vivian in their sights, Caden doesn’t blink. “Let’s get something straight,” he growls, shoving a pistol under the lead thug’s chin. “You came for a princess. You found the king.” Enemies want his head. Socialites want his wallet. And Vivian—she wants him gone. But Caden Pierce didn’t survive hell to bow to anyone. He’s got seven million reasons to settle old scores. And one savage promise: this city will remember his name. Buckle up. The king is back—and he’s done playing nice.

Kieran expected death but when he opened his eyes, he wasn’t greeted by a celestial herald or a mystic inheritance. He was greeted by the rotting stench of the Verdant Cloud Sect’s refuse pits thrown there after his Qi channels were shattered for daring to protect a fellow disciple. A cripple. Trash, discarded by the world of cultivation. As despair threatened to consume him, a cold, resonant voice echoed in his mind not from a heavenly treasure, but from the very spiritual garbage surrounding him. [System Initializing…] [Host Located: Zero-Star Aptitude. Mortal-Body. High Compatibility.] [Welcome to the Cosmic Scavenger Initiative. Processing Local ‘Waste’…] While geniuses plundered ancient tombs for legendary swords, Kieran’s system analyzed broken pill slag to reconstruct perfect Divine-grade elixirs. While young masters absorbed pure spirit stones, his system taught him to devour the corrosive resentment from cursed artifacts, turning poison into pure, terrifying power. His domain wasn’t a pristine meditation chamber it was the dump. And every piece of “trash” was a puzzle piece to ultimate strength. They laughed when he crawled out, covered in filth. They sneered when he dared to re-enter the outer sect as a janitor. But when a demonic beast core deemed too unstable and discarded by the Patriarch landed in the refuse heap, Kieran simply smiled. [Scanning… ‘Catastrophic-Level Waste’ detected. Beginning Assimilation.] Now, the sect that discarded him trembles. The geniuses who mocked him are baffled. For the man they left in the trash is sifting through the bones of fallen gods and the wreckage of dead realms and his cultivation path is built on everything they were too arrogant to see. This is the rise of an underdog no one saw coming, A cultivator who will forge a throne from the universe's waste.
