Su Xun traveled to the Spring and Autumn Period and became a prince of the Zhou Dynasty. Despite his single-minded pursuit of pleasure, he was highly accomplished in music, chess, calligraphy, and painting, and created many classic works ahead of time. Unexpectedly, this led to his fame and made him a renowned "gentleman". He thought he would live a happy life, but one day he suddenly discovered that the person he had been talking to so happily, who was both his teacher and friend, was actually Lao Tzu, the founder of Taoism, who was known as "the purple aura that comes from the east for 30,000 miles"! That wasn't all. Then, Su Xun discovered that this world was actually... The Journey to the West world! Then isn't Laozi the "ancestor who created heaven and earth," Taishang Laojun? "Su Tong'er, you've come again today? If you win this game of chess, I'll take you as my disciple, how about it?" Laozi said with a smile. Thus, Su Xun became the sole true disciple of Laozi, and the first thing he had to do was... To go west with Laozi out of Hangu Pass and convert the barbarians to Buddhism!

Chen Xi looked at the soldier who had thrown a boulder weighing several hundred pounds away, speechless as he gazed at the heavens. Was this really the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty? It seems illogical that Lü Bu single-handedly broke through an army of ten thousand. Zhao Zilong is truly possessed by the dragon spirit; he can cleave mountains with a single sword strike. Is this really a human? Dian Wei single-handedly protected Cao Cao as they fought their way out of the enemy camp, casually slaughtering thousands of enemy infantry and cavalry. His combat prowess was off the charts! Something's not right here, is it? Chen Xi casually picked up a goose feather fan and waved it, creating a strong wind. He sighed, "This is a myth, isn't it? Even I'm not normal." P. S.: Actually, this is a serious farming/development story...

*The adapted drama series "My Senior Brother is Too Steady" will premiere on Youku and iQiyi on August 19th.* *The anime adaptation of "Senior Brother, Senior Brother" on Youku is nearing its end.* Reborn in the ancient era before the Investiture of the Gods, Li Changshou became a minor Qi cultivator. He had no special luck or was not a chosen one destined for great calamity. He only had one dream: to cultivate immortality and achieve eternal life. In order to survive in the cruel prehistoric world, he tried his best to avoid karma, always scattering the ashes of those he killed, planning everything before acting, and never easily stepping into danger. He conceals his trump cards, cultivates stealth techniques, refines elixirs and poisons, wields supernatural powers, remains as still as an old dog when still, but when he moves, he is earth-shattering, and after moving, he quietly disappears. Originally, Li Changshou planned to hide in the mountains and cultivate peacefully until he became an immortal. However, one year, his master, feeling restless, brought him back a junior sister...

7 儒EN The Confucian Way to Sagehood 儒道至圣 Eternal Flame永恒之火Eastern Fantasy7.7M WordsCompleted This is a world where scholars command the power of Heaven and Earth. With literary talent within, poems can slay enemies, lyrics can destroy armies, and essays can bring peace to the realm. A scholar puts brush to paper, discussing war from the safety of his desk; a successful candidate slays the enemy with every word; an advanced scholar flies into a rage, and his words become weapons. When a Sage arrives, his words and writing can condemn a man, judge an emperor's rule unjust, and take on an 85Votes9.6MRecs2MFans

Curator note

This is a world where scholars wield the power of heaven and earth. With talent, one can kill enemies with poetry, annihilate armies with lyrics, and bring peace to the world with prose. A scholar can strategize on paper; a successful candidate in the provincial examination can compose poems and write essays; and a candidate in the imperial examination can engage in heated debates. When a sage arrives, he can condemn people with words and writings, punish individuals, and judge the emperor as tyrannical, making one a match for an entire nation. At this time, the Holy Academy held the civil service positions, the monarch controlled the official positions, ten kingdoms were vying for power, barbarian tribes were eyeing the country covetously, and demons were causing chaos. At this time, there was no flourishing of Tang poetry, no golden age of Song lyrics, no innovative writing, and no new sages for a hundred years. An unknown, poor boy, after having his head smashed, embarked on the path to sainthood, carrying with him timeless poems and astonishing writings.
