Why? Living in the mountains is an immortal. Going to high places and going against the sky is cultivation. An old man said: "What's the difference between cultivating immortals and cultivating demons? Immortals and demons do not represent good or evil, but what people's hearts want! Justice and evil are what people's hearts do. The heart seeks guidance. Demons also seek Tao. Those who cultivate immortals seek Tao for spiritual roots. Those who cultivate demons test their innate character and Tao heart. In fact, they all seek Tao. What's the difference between them? What is the Tao I am going against? What am I going against? I should go against heaven!"

These talents are gathered in this boy at the same time, and he is destined to be the most dangerous existence in the world, just like a god.

Five years ago, he was the first genius of the Tianwu Dynasty. In order to repay his kindness, he replaced his adopted brother Ye Xuan and entered the demon battlefield alone. Five years later, he fought bloody battles, killed the demon god at the cost of a narrow escape, and returned in glory! His adoptive father forced him to hand over Glory, but his adopted sister sneered coldly. "Ye Xiao, your martial arts soul is broken and you are just a useless person. You are not worthy of this military exploit!" "Everything you have was given by the Ye family. Now, come back!" Fiancée Shen Ruowei pretended to care, but in fact she was trying to find out the truth. She said "The Shen family does not marry trash". Little did they know that Ye Xiao was a blessing in disguise.

When his imperial pupils opened and he looked down at the common people, the whole family knelt down and begged. "I treat you like a close relative, and you treat me like a piece of grass. After today, all ties will be cut off, and I, Ye Xiao, will be arbitrary for eternity!"...

Xu Yuanlang came to the Xu family in Wuliang Mountain with a living creature in his possession. In the mysterious and unpredictable world of cultivation, the Xu family was just the most ordinary low-level family. The dangerous Qianliang Mountains. The northern cultivation world is full of murderous intent. The Xu family is like a small boat in the stormy waves, they can only go down the river. Sometimes they also have ambitions, and they want to one day control the changes in the world. (Family Cultivation, No Virgin, Farming, Group Statues)

Shen Juefei traveled through time. In the previous life, he was a Chinese medicine loser with 0 readings. In this life, he is an "empty pulse person" with no spiritual energy. He was lying in a coffin at the beginning. In this world of immortality where the Yellow Emperor's Internal Classic is regarded as metaphysics and the whole world clings to 12 serious scriptures, he found that the theory of traditional Chinese medicine in his mind has become the only weapon. While others meditate and absorb spiritual energy, he relies on "syndrome differentiation and treatment" to widen the meridians; while others kill people with swords, he relies on "syndrome differentiation and poisonous tongue" to pierce the heart and break the defense. "The fire luck you cultivated? Do you understand that the liver wood and the spleen earth are equal to each other? If you practice it again, it will be useless!" The opponent was furious but unable to refute - because it was a perfect hit! The more accurate the diagnosis, the stronger the resonance, the angrier the enemy becomes, and the more invincible he becomes. But the price of this golden finger is outrageous: he diagnosed a wrong meridian, hiccupped like crazy for three days, but unexpectedly became the best disguise; others relied on spiritual stones for cultivation, while he relied on his "medical name" for cultivation - the more people who believed in him, the stronger he became, and even if he was bullied by the Internet, he would lose his cultivation level! What's even worse is that the stronger he becomes, the poorer he becomes. The energy and blood consumed by widening the meridians must be replenished by taking sky-high price elixirs, and the miracle doctor becomes a money maniac. Until she met Su Weiyang, the flowers she touched would wither, and even the noodles Shen Juefei had just cooked disappeared "unfinished" halfway through eating, but the feeling of fullness was still there. A bowl of half-section, a broken mirror with a push-back picture, and a Thirteen Needles of the Ghost Gate that cost the soul. When the 80,000-year-old order collapsed, the hexagram of heaven and earth came, and the whole world was desperate, only this quack doctor with empty pulse who hiccupped every day held a bowl of noodles and said: "Cultivation is not to add something, but to reduce the excess. This world is not good enough, so there is no need to practice, just stay awake."

After accidentally traveling to Douluo Continent, Li Yuze was bound to the level system. The rules of the system are very simple: every time the soul power level increases ten levels, the host can receive a generous reward. In addition, if the soul power awakening is completed for the first time, the host can receive an additional reward. When the martial soul awakening ceremony came, the system rewards were distributed as scheduled, and a prompt sounded. Li Yuze directly received the god-level martial soul killing immortal sword, plus the innate full soul power talent. After his soul power directly reaches level ten, the second system reward is unlocked, and he directly obtains the three Magatama Sharingan that can advance simultaneously with his soul power. He holds a sword to kill and kill immortals, his eyes hide the mysterious Sharingan, and he has a system in his body. Li Yuze broke the shackles of Douluo training, swept through the geniuses of his generation with his sword and eye skills, and embarked on the road to the top step by step. Multi-heroine microsystem

As a pure college student, Wu Li watched anime at home and was excited when he saw Qi, a shadow assassin, being forced to detonate his internal energy to destroy the bridge and die with the other assassins because of a real assassination of a woman. He jumped up immediately... The output was too unpleasant. He couldn't bear the chandelier anymore, so he aimed it at his head and dropped it. With a jump, Wu Li lay quietly on the floor.

The universe is not unique. Countless dimensions of time and space are connected by the "Tianshu Veins". The war between the interstellar federation and the alien "entropy demon" is coming to an end, but special forces commander Ye Feng discovers the shocking truth: the entropy demon is actually a "rules cleaning program" launched by high-dimensional civilization, aiming to erase the low-dimensional universe that is about to awaken. The top leaders of the federation chose to compromise, but Ye Feng refused to accept his fate, activated the ancient teleportation array, physically traveled through dimensions, and was reborn as Ye Chen, a disciple of the Xuanwu Star Domain cultivation family. In this world dominated by metaphysics and martial arts, he relied on his past life memories and extraordinary intuition to create a new training system and established Tianshu Pavilion, with the intention of resisting the dimensionality reduction attack from higher dimensions. However, the source of the Tianshu veins hides the ultimate secret of the birth of the universe - and his life experience as a descendant of the original civilization. When the concept weapon "two-dimensional foil" comes, Ye Chen must find a way to ascend to the dimension in the desperate situation of two-dimensionalization, and fight for the right of survival for all low-dimensional civilizations. This is a battle across all realms, an ultimate inquiry into the nature of life, the universe and the Dao.

Heaven will not tolerate it, and earth will not tolerate it. Eternal time passes quietly, and in this universe of stars, there are countless realms, cultivators, phantom beasts, sea spirits, horses, secret realms, etc. And in the Chen Shen Domain, which lacks the least cultivation resources among all the stars, a person who does not belong to this world was born here.

The bones are hidden in the Emperor of Heaven, and the saint is guarding the rest of her life. Ling Jin, who carries the soul of the eternal Burning Heaven Emperor, was plotted by his sect and became a useless person. The whole world abandoned him, but only the Holy Maiden of Yaochi stayed with him. On the day when the emperor's blood awakened, Burning Fire crushed the shackles of the sect, and from the Southern Territory, he returned to the supreme position of the heavens step by step. Sweeping away all the enemies of immortals and demons, reversing the eternal way of heaven, and giving all of his overwhelming dominance and supreme power to his only true love, Su Qingyao.

Chen Ye, a young man from Qingshi Mountain Village, was born with mixed spiritual roots of the five elements. He was judged by immortal cultivators as a useless person who would never be able to embark on the path to immortality. He has followed his parents' instructions since he was a child, never touching the written word, and only hopes to live a stable life with his relatives. But misfortune fell from the sky, bandits massacred the village, relatives passed away one after another, and the ordinary life in the past was completely shattered. When he was desperate, Chen Ye followed his parents' instructions on their deathbed and took out a rare treasure from the Xuanshi Tomb that had been dusted for many years - the only remaining first page of the ancient book "The Source Code of Ten Thousand Laws". This thing does not confer supernatural powers, nor does it confer cultivation skills from heaven, but it can absorb all the incomplete skills in the world and complete them to their original perfection. As the last lineage of ancient masters, Chen Ye relies on this scrap of paper to break the shackles of fate of the miscellaneous spirit roots, and as the lowest servant disciple of Qingyang Sect, he embarks on the long road to immortality with difficulty. Within the sect, the geniuses and arrogant men are creating difficulties in every possible way; in the troubled times, the giants of the devil are eyeing them; there are also ancient secrets hidden in the depths of the years, which are slowly revealed with the appearance of a broken page of Zhang Yuandian. Millions of years ago, who personally tore apart the source of all laws? Why are all the magical powers of the sects of the past dynasties transformed from the fragments of the source code? The identity that the parents deliberately concealed and the murder conspiracy behind the violent death also emerged layer by layer on the path of spiritual practice. From a shepherd boy in the ordinary world, to a strong man who stirred up the world; from a despised servant of a sect, to a rebel who faced the Supreme Being of the Immortal World. Holding the broken page in his hand, Chen Ye fought through thorns and thorns all the way, sticking to his true heart amidst the pull of the inheritance of skills and ancient obsessions, stepping into Zifu, entering Tongxuan, and crossing thousands of realms. When all dharmas return and the broken pages are reunited, he will finally realize the supreme path in a mortal body.

Xu Qingshan traveled through the world of cultivation and became the lowest servant disciple of Qingxuan Sect. Without spiritual roots, he cannot draw Qi, and cannot enter the outer door. He is only qualified to carry water, chop firewood, deliver medicine, and mine. Everyone said that he could only be a mortal in this life. Until he picked up a incomplete "Book of Mortal Bones" in an abandoned stone house. From then on, he no longer cultivated spiritual energy, but only cultivated his physical body. Refining skin, refining meat, refining tendons, refining bones, refining internal organs, exchanging blood, refining orifices, refining marrow, immortal bones, mortal bones and heavenly body. While others wield swords, he chases them with his legs. While others refine elixirs, he refines bones. When others ascended, he knocked open the gate of heaven. So what if there is no spiritual root? It's not that mortals can't reach heaven, it's just that the road is blocked. What Xu Qingshan wants to do is to use this mortal body to break open the gate of heaven.

The vanguard soldiers of the Hive perform tasks in the dark, and the super beast warriors hide in the market as mortals. No one knows that Lu Chen is a time traveler.

There is no pure land above the ruins. When the "Tianhengji" experiment went out of control and tore apart the laws of physics, the old human civilization fell into the abyss. The radiation wasteland swallowed up 80% of the survivors. The remaining humans huddled within the high walls of the Four-City Federation, and were kept captive by the technological oligarchs of the "Tower of the Gods" with a sophisticated class system. Outside the walls, there was a wasteland purgatory ruled by mutated creatures and deadly pollution. Lu Chen, a scavenger in the seventh safe area, has nothing. In a world where even breathing has to be taxed, every day for him is a cheap overdraft for tomorrow. Until one desperate escape, he dug out a biochip from a pre-war corpse. That's not luck, that's a curse. The core key to the "God-Creation Project", the most dangerous forbidden technology of the old era, is sealed in the chip. It can unlock the entire treasure trove of pre-war knowledge, and it can also reduce the host to a monitored pawn. Lu Chen soon discovered that every struggle and every counterattack he made was part of a script that had already been written. The upper echelons of the "Tower of the Gods" never wanted to kill him. They just wanted to see: could a native individual escape from the dragnet controlled by technology? From scavenger to wasteland king, from chess piece to chess player. He will use blood, fire, iron and wisdom to smash the temperature-controlled experimental table with his own hands. When the truth is revealed - the disaster is not a natural disaster, but a man-made social cleansing - Lu Chen must make a choice: become a new tyrant, or let real order grow out of the ruins? Wasteland doesn't believe in tears, but it shouldn't be left with just lies.
