Sharing a traditional fantasy novel, *Ling Tu*, with a breathtakingly vast world. If you have the patience to follow the updates, you can probably still urge for more updates when you're holding your grandchildren (Master of One Update). Excerpt: Qu Chen had been guarding the Phoenix Clan's remains for six years. His storage ring was empty; all his spirit stones had been used up. He caressed a jade-green storage ring in his hand, the one Chu Qing had given him six years ago, and now it was time to use it. Over seven million spirit stones, a pile of various ores, more than ten bottles of pills, and several sets of pale yellow dresses and undergarments—these were all of Chu Qing's belongings. Sensing the faint fragrance on the clothes, Qu Chen felt a moment of dizziness, as if he had returned to the moment he first awoke six years ago. "You are my first and only woman!" Qu Chen took a deep breath, his gaze turning to the location of the Phoenix Clan's eggs. "I'll wait for you to come out!" He waved his hand, and thousands more spirit stones fell beside him.
