The story focuses on lighthearted everyday comedy, with much of the early portion devoted to setup. Since the main character is an orphan, he values family ties. This has nothing to do with how long he has known the other characters. Whether a character returns depends mainly on how their story threads were set up and how far the plot has prog 1.5kReads8.9Score10014d adds

   [Apocalypse + Nationwide Awakening + Superpowers + Cultivation + Space + Time] This is not a wish-fulfillment story. It does not involve starting with awakening, rebirth, or starting with low intelligence and slow growth. It does involve experiencing major life changes, world transformations, discovering the secret to world destruction, starting a cultivation civilization, resisting extraterrestrial civilizations, being defeated by advanced civilizations, and the world being destroyed. Ye Ruizhe is reborn through the power of time and embarks on the path of awakening again.

Can you believe he's incorporated Crypt Lord elements into the Three Kingdoms period?

   Brothers, I'm recommending a mind-blowing, super-powerful novel! The protagonist, Ji Ye, has awakened an "Abyss Filter," seeing everything as an everyday object. 👉 While others are terrified of the Headless Horseman, he thinks he's a dedicated deliveryman and even gives him a tip! 👉 While others are scared out of their wits by the sight of a deep-sea monster, he thinks she's a drowning girl, rescues her, and then forces her to sing a square dance! 👉 The most outrageous thing is that when the King in Yellow comes looking for trouble, he treats him like a performance artist, forcibly drags him into his house to play a murder mystery game, and then criticizes the script for its illogicality! Now, in his yard, a demigod is guarding the gate, a ghost king is mopping the floor, and an S-class monster is unclogging the drains… Everyone's a villain (scratch that), everyone's a working stiff! Want to see how the protagonist uses a mop to physically exorcise the entire universe? "I Handed Over the Unspeakable Things," you won't regret it, you'll laugh your head off! 😎

Long Kai awoke in a purgatory cage, his family destroyed, his enemies reveling. In desperation, his power-boosting system awakened—killing one person increased his power immensely, annihilating an entire race made him virtually invincible. He emerged from prison, stepping on the corpses of countless races in the starry sky, becoming the supreme Dao Ancestor! One foot shattered the royal court of an alien race; one spear pierced the true body of a nuclear immortal demon; one sword slayed the ancient primordial race; the star sea beasts roared? He countered by shattering their bloodline source! He wielded the three thousand Great Dao rules, sweeping across countless realms and races. So-called geniuses were nothing more than resources for my cultivation. When the starry sky and the source sea trembled, the ancient ancestors knelt: "My lord, we are willing to offer our ancestral star to beg for mercy!" Long Kai lightly flicked his sword: "What's the rush? May I ask—are you worthy to die by my hand?"

    This book is absolutely amazing! It's not a wish-fulfillment novel! It has a Cthulhu fantasy world setting! Like Dao Gui, it belongs to the mystery genre. The plot is very novel and suspenseful, completely different from any novel I've read before. You can't predict how the story will develop; the author's imagination is incredible! If you can get through the first few chapters, the plot explodes later on! Perfect for hardcore readers who enjoy plot-driven stories!

    A cool and aloof female lead who is both sassy and charming towards the male lead, and ruthless and vicious towards villains. She's not a naive and innocent character. The male lead is a system character who is roguish and handsome. They level up and fight monsters along the way. Highly recommended!
