Can You Conquer The World With Martial Arts?
In a world not unlike our own, the rapid progress of martial arts had empowered a small group of rebels with supernatural abilities and fostered an unprecedented uprising. The long lived Emperor Taizong's vast army had been routed by the bandit Huang Chao and his gang of commoners. The emperor himself was forced to fend for his life and the fate of his empire in single combat. For the very first time it was personal prowess, not governance and strategy, that dictated the tide of history. Although the emperor had won the battle and forced the rebels into hiding, all semblance of order had been lost and the country splintered, as what little remained of the central government could not reestablish full control of their territory. The countless sects that made up the martial arts society rose up to the occasion to fill the gaps left by the ailing empire, be it to protect or to exploit the common people. Almost two hundred years later, what was once the martial arts underworld had become the forefront of society. What were once sects were now kingdoms, while armies had turned into lone, prodigious swords, upon the edges of which teetered the fates of countless thousands. As law became whim, as technology stagnated, as society regressed, as chaos ruled the land... ...only a single question ran through the minds of the warlords responsible for it all.

Peerless Immortal God (Beyond The Dao) 2
"You are destined to die if you continue on this path. You cannot change your fate!" He lifted his head to gaze at the heavens, fingers tightening around his sword hilt. "What if I can?" he muttered faintly. "I've done it before. I can do it again." Born in a desolate lower realm, he grows believing he is ordinary - an insignificant youth with a dream to reach the elusive peak. But the world suppresses him. A history buried in the endless river of time resurges. Seals weaken. The abyss stirs. Chaos begins to awaken. As he rises step by step among peerless geniuses, the heavens respond with tribulations. Immortals stand in his way. Fate tightens its grip. The Heavens itself moves to erase him. Yet he takes another step forward. If Immortals seek to destroy him, he will cut out a mountain of corpses. If the heavens block his path- He will carve one with his sword.
Jiang Tian's Ascent
When gods fell and stars wept fire, the world was shattered into countless realms-each ruled by power, deceit, and the remnants of divinity. In this broken cosmos, Jiang Tian rises from obscurity-a wanderer bound by fate, carrying within him a flame older than the heavens themselves. Hunted by sects, spirits, and immortals, he embarks on a journey to reclaim the Star Map, an ancient relic said to reveal the path to the First Flame, the source of all creation-and destruction. But every step toward power awakens new enemies and old truths. The lines between mortal and god blur; allies hide divine secrets; and the shadows whisper of a forgotten war that once consumed existence. As Jiang Tian's strength grows, so too does the fire within-a power that could burn the heavens clean... or plunge them into eternal night. Across countless worlds, from celestial palaces to cursed wastelands, the legend of Jiang Tian ignites. His destiny is not to rule or obey-but to redefine what it means to be human, divine, and eternal. For the flame he carries does not just burn-it remembers.
