In the celestial empire, during the ninth year of the Mandate of Heaven,

Chaos reigns across the land, and the people suffer.

The royal governance collapses, and western barbarians with their pantheon of gods invade.

New warlords arise, claiming territories; the Taiping rebels wreak havoc, leading to widespread misery.

Calamities like floods, droughts, earthquakes, sandstorms, tornadoes, acid rain, blood moons, and meteor falls occur in succession.

Countless demons roam, strange beings thrive, spirits mingle with the inexplicable, and mysterious phenomena arise.

In these dark and tumultuous times, Tao Qian opens his eyes to find himself about to be beheaded at the vegetable market...

[Reminder once again: If you enjoy brainless power fantasy and non-stop slaughter, read with caution!!!]

Gu Ming accidentally transmigrated into the cultivation world. At the start, he has endless lifespan and awakens the talent "Borrowing Life" — if he is killed, he will randomly sacrifice a close relative of his enemy to resurrect himself, and even gain one random ability from the sacrificed person.

Need a cultivation license to join a sect?

Not talented enough, so you have to pay to cultivate?

What? I don’t even qualify to pay to cultivate?

Fine! You won't let me cultivate, huh?

Then I'll just outlast everyone — while others study their way to Immortality, Gu Ming endures his way there with sheer lifespan.

Want to kill me? Go ahead. Kill me, and your whole family dies, starting with your parents. Let’s see how many times your family can afford to be sacrificed!!

...

Years later, Gu Ming’s little secret is accidentally exposed. He becomes a plague god in the eyes of all realms — wherever he goes, fear follows. People avoid him like the plague.

Especially those powerful cultivators who like flashy, explosive battles — every time they want a duel, they make sure to steer clear of Gu Ming, fearing they might accidentally kill him.

One righteous sect leader refused to believe the rumors. He found Gu Ming and arrogantly declared:

“I have no family, no ties, I stand alone. Plague God Gu Ming, come — today, I shall rid the worlds of your evil!”

An ordinary mortal was reborn into the mysterious world of immortal cultivation and became a cultivator of a small family.

The family struggled to survive despite the earnest hopes of the elders. Faced with all kinds of unfavorable situations, Zhang Zhixuan struggled step by step, went against the current, developed his family, and wrote his dreamlike and magnificent life.

I am a stranger from another country, and I have no intention of becoming a fairy.

...

After 20 years of cultivating Taoism in the deep mountains, the master asked Song You to go down the mountain to see demons and ghosts, all kinds of life, to visit famous mountains and rivers, and legendary immortals, saying that that is the real practice.

Unexpectedly, traveling all over the country, the fairy is actually myself.

Every time he goes to sleep, he will enter a game’s Ultimate Boss’ body.

He’s the Sleeper of R’lyeh at the bottom of the ocean, the Great Old One in the game, the master of the dream that makes one fall into madness—Cthulhu!

Due to the rising of the game, more and more fanatics call upon His name. There will be a strange item at home every time Ke Meng wakes up. It’s quite a trouble for an unboxing video creator like him…

Traveling through the world of immortality, he was cultivated by the devil into a soul banner.

I just want to find a reliable banner master and wait for him to help me become an immortal.

Therefore, we should strive to improve ourselves, learn kung fu and practice magical powers, and fulfill our responsibilities as a grandfather. I hope that the banner owner can survive and become an immortal.

But the world of cultivating immortals really can’t stand it!

By the way, where is the banner master that I just bought yesterday?

You won't be killed in a fight again, right?

Ahem, okay, now I’m recruiting a new banner master who can help me become an immortal.

What? I am powerless and just want to lie down.

Are you afraid you want to be my banner slave? !

When his parents' blood turned cold in the cracks of the bluestone, Li Feng understood: If you want to live, you have to be dirtier than evil people and more despicable than mud!

Kneeling and licking the Black Tiger Gang? Voluntarily practicing the life-shortening Five Poison Palm? Using his subordinates as sacrifices? Selling his affectionate Taoist partner to be used as a furnace? As long as he can climb up, he won't blink an eye!

The body is exhausted? Turned into a corpse! The soul is on the verge of collapse? Ten thousand ghosts are imprisoned in the body! The power is complicated and difficult to control? Bet your life on the unity of body and soul!

From then on, the black market had an extra walking taboo, with corpses as coffins and ghosts as servants, and wherever the blood mist of the underworld passed, the souls of all living beings became nutrients!

(this book is dark, please avoid it) (Please note that the protagonist of this book is not a mindless killer)

In a world where demons rule and twisted horrors block every path forward, humanity has been pushed to the brink, some have even chosen to become livestock for monsters just to survive.

Zhang Xuan crosses into this nightmare realm with one simple goal: to live.

But in an era where the heavens are silent and human life is worth less than grass, survival means strength, and strength comes at a price.

Now, he has only one rule:

Anyone who stands in the way of his growth... must die.
