The Book of Darkness: Every Novel I Write Is an Evil Cultivation Technique

Su Mo, a third-rate writer, had been a flop for five years and was so broke he could only afford instant noodles in packets.

One late night, inspiration suddenly struck, and he hammered out a cultivation power fantasy called The Transformation of Xuanhuang.

The prose was polished, the worldbuilding solid, and the readership exploded.

But then the comments section started getting strange:

"Author, that 'Carefree Art' you wrote about really works. My arm turned into a tentacle."

"The Black Heaven Sect is real. I saw my master eat himself."

"Stop updating, please! It crawled out of the screen..."

Su Mo calmly replied: You've gotten too carried away. I recommend you all see a psychiatrist.

Then one night, he woke up to find a new chapter on his computer, one he had never written. The style was exactly like his, but the content was brutally horrifying.

Soon afterward, the Black Heaven Sect from his novel appeared in real life. Its followers practiced the Spirit-Devouring Soul-Eating Art, their bodies oozing black liquid, their faces serene.

Su Mo panicked.

He went through his book carefully and discovered a horrifying truth:

He thought he was writing orthodox cultivation, a passionate power fantasy about decisive heroes.

But everyone else saw a different version.

His "Nine Heavens Mysterious Maiden" had become the "Nine Hells Corrupt Maiden" in reality. His "Heaven-Devouring Art" made its practitioners eat themselves. The "Heavenly Court" in his writing hung upside down, with the brains of immortals dangling to the ground.

He began to realize that every chapter he wrote was quietly twisting the world.

And he had become the creator of every eldritch myth.

[The villains in this novel are intelligent, the protagonist operates from behind the scenes, the writing grows more and more deranged, and the world gradually collapses. The early chapters are terrifying upon reflection, the middle brings global mutations, and the later part delivers karmic retribution. There's nothing else like it online, so proceed with caution.]
