【A new work from the author of 'My Longevity Simulation'!】

In this world, there is an Emperor whose single word becomes the Law of the Land,

A War Immortal whose single sword can withstand a million-strong army,

A Confucian Saint whose single scroll of the “Spring and Autumn” defines the social order,

A Daoist Venerable whose single finger manifests creation,

A Strategist whose single scheme throws the world into chaos…

Li Shun crossed over with nothing to his name—save for a mysterious space.

No matter how brilliant or talented you are, once captured, you shall be turned into a puppet within.

Thus…

Though the heroes of the world are as countless as carp crossing the river, all must ultimately enter within the span of my palm!

***

Fangcun (方寸) literally translates to "a square inch."

However, in Chinese philosophy, cultivation novels (Xianxia), and classic literature, it has a profound metaphorical meaning.

- The Human Heart / The Mind: Ancient Chinese philosophers believed the human heart was roughly the size of a "square inch." Therefore, Fangcun is often used as a poetic term for one's inner mind, true self, or spiritual core.

- A Universe Within: It represents the Daoist concept of finding the infinite within the infinitesimal—containing an entire universe, endless wisdom, or a grand Dao within the tiny space of one's own heart.

- Mythological Origin: In the classic novel Journey to the West, the immortal who teaches the Monkey King (Sun Wukong) resides on Mount Lingtai Fangcun (The Mount of the Spiritual Heart and Square Inch).

Thus, a "Master of the Inner Dao" is not someone who rules over a tiny piece of land, but rather a supreme master who has conquered their inner world, proving that true Dao and limitless power originate from within the "square inch" of the human soul. <<less

Steel as scales, flames forging my bones. The blood of Red Dragons and Iron Dragons intertwines within me, merging into a dazzling new lifeform. Fire and steel are my innate gifts, but adaptation and evolution are the powers that will make me eternal.

The weak are always full of doubts, while the strong—have no restraints.

Anything that doesn’t kill me will only make me stronger.

In my presence: kneel and you live, stand and you die. Life and death bend to my will. I hold the power to decide who lives and who dies.

If the entire world turns against me, then I’ll burn it down with the power of a single dragon—and rule over its ashes.

My name is Garos. The world fears me, reveres me, and calls me—

The Eternal, Undying Dragon! <<less

Transmigrating to the Qianyuan Continent, Xu Chuan was born with a Blood Lineage Genealogy. As the first generation ancestor, Xu Chuan received three talent bonuses from his destiny patterns.

[Dragon Vigor and Tiger Strength] : Daily energy and abundant qi and blood

[Daily Divination] : Divine fortune and misfortune for each day

[Heaven Rewards Diligence] : Whatever one persists in, one will surely gain

After reaching adulthood, Xu Chuan married, had children, and propagated his descendants. With each new generation, the Blood Lineage Genealogy would generate a new page, giving birth to multiple talent patterns.

[Golden Koi] , [Transparent Sword Heart] , [Divine Farmer’s Hundred Herbs] …

As the Xu family grew increasingly prosperous, more and more miraculous destiny patterns were born: [Azure Emperor Wood Sovereign] , [End of All Arts] , [Martial Ancestor] , [Sword Immortal] …

There were arrow gods who could pierce through the void with a single arrow.

There were formation masters who could create arrays with a single thought.

There were technique masters who could wield ten thousand methods at their fingertips.



Prodigies emerged in every generation, competing with the heavens themselves.

The Xu family rose from the lowest common people, emerging from the countryside, advancing step by step, and ultimately became an eternal and immortal clan lasting ten thousand ages. <<less

Su Chen has a Profession Panel by his side. By collecting profession information and fulfilling the conditions, he can assume a profession.

【Bedrock Fighter】 promotes to 【Flesh and Blood Emperor】!

【Puppet Master】 promotes to 【Mecha Saint Lord】!

A smooth path lies at his feet, so he is cautious and meticulous, advancing step by step, until--

【The Flesh and Blood Emperor despises you for dawdling and lacking the will to bravely forge forward, and has decided to increase the difficulty of assuming the profession.】

【The Dark Night Fate Artificer covets you, has decided to skip the profession requirements and let you assume the profession directly.】

【Warrior】 devoured 【Gale Walker】 and evolved into 【Sky Splitter Warrior】.

***

Gemini Description:

In a city where an artificial sun dictates who lives, knowledge of Power is the deadliest monopoly.

Su Chen was destined to be disposable cannon fodder in the twisted games of the elite.

But his secret breaks the ironclad laws of this world: the Professions within his body possess a mind of their own.

When faced with impossible advancement conditions, they ruthlessly devour each other and rewrite reality itself, all just to please their master.

From a disenfranchised outcast to an apex predator lurking in the shadows.

He must walk a razor's edge through a labyrinth of aristocratic betrayals, treacherous mentors, and the maddening whispers of eldritch gods.

One wrong step doesn't just mean death—it means mutating into a mindless horror consumed by the endless mist.

When the ancient entities cast their greedy gazes upon the mortal realm, who is the hunter, and who is the prey? <<less

In the twilight of his life, legendary magician Ambrose Jenkins found himself unable to afford a Potion of Youth. The high elves—those damned beansprouts!—had jacked up prices again. To prolong his life, Ambrose had no other option than to become an undead, a lich.

The two thoughts that plagued him during the transformation, and which would thereby remain with him for good, were: Damn those high elves! I’ll never go without gold again!

Ambrose Jenkins, lich for hire, at your service.

【The Isekai Version of Breaking Bad】

After transmigrating to this world and scraping by for many years, Leon finally realized that some paths, once taken, offer no way back. The stairway paved with countless white bones leads only to a throne—or to a grave.

Because the Imperial Church explicitly forbade it, the production and smuggling of mana extracted from magical beasts became a trade that was both perilous and immensely profitable. Thus, starting as an obscure nobody, he trained the witches wanted by the Church into his own monster handlers and apothecaries, and built a smuggling empire that spanned the continent.

Today, he is Viscount Arend—one of the most powerful lords of the Empire, a newly appointed cardinal of the Church, the Grand Inquisitor of the Inquisition, and a key supporter of the new emperor.

At the same time, in the shadows, the name Fenrir resounds throughout the underworld. He is the Empire’s most highly bountied fugitive, the most infamous blasphemer, and the most fearsome danger spoken of in whispers—countless witches singing his name in the dark.

Yet he still remembers the moment when the gears of fate first began to turn. Back then, he was merely Leon·Set, a low-level inquisitor muddling along at the bottom of the Church.

That day, he encountered a true witch for the first time. When he raised his gun and aimed it at her head, everything began with a single sentence that would alter the course of their lives:

“Miss Witch… would you be interested in making a deal with me?” <<less

Regulus Black. A tragic side character in the original tale, the "good son" of the Noble House of Black, and an early casualty of Voldemort's reign.

In 1961, his eyes fluttered open again, but a completely different soul now resided within.

Confronted by the suffocating chains of a pure-blood family, the impending darkness of Voldemort's rise, and a fate that seemed destined for the grave—he chose to raise his head and gaze at the starry sky.

Magic is the absolute power to rewrite reality. Why do wizards waste it on petty political games and greed?

Why is it that throughout thousands of years of magical history, no one ever dreamed of leaving this planet?

What Muggles can do, shouldn't wizards be able to conquer as well?

Lily: "He’s not like the other Slytherins."

Snape: "Wrong. He is a textbook Slytherin, and an absolute menace!"

Malfoy: "I see now… there was never just one path to choose."

Sirius: "My brother is a pure-blood madman!"

Voldemort: "That Black… his sheer talent is intoxicating. He must…"

***

Gemini Description:

History is written by the victors. But what do you do when your name is already etched into the lists of the dead?

While his older brother loudly burns bridges to chase the light, Regulus remains in the suffocating shadows of the rotting Black family tree. A storm is gathering.

The Dark Lord is calling, and ancient bloodlines are marching blindly to the slaughter for a mere illusion of power.

But the youngest Black refuses to play the game. He won’t be a pawn for the darkness, nor a martyr for the light.

Stripping magic down to its very atoms and bending the fabric of space itself, he seeks an absolute, terrifying power that transcends earthly politics.

What will become of someone whose gaze is fixed far beyond the starry sky? A savior, a monster, or something this world has never seen before... <<less

There are no Sects. There are no Elders. There are no Systems. There are no Cheats.

I've read three hundred cultivation novels. I know exactly how this is supposed to go — find a cave, discover an ancient manual, join a sect, climb the ranks, avoid dangerous jade beauties, and punch a god.

None of that exists here.

Sects haven't been built yet.

I wasn't lucky enough to be given a snarky System to track my progression.

I wasn't given a golden finger to bypass my lack of talent.

I instead, was transmigrated into a fifteen-year-old farmer's body in a world where cultivation is unregulated and nobody has figured out how to master it, let alone teach it.

I'm in a world full of warlords conscripting farmers into meat grinders and cultivators operating like weapons of mass destruction.

Yea, this isn't the transmigration I was hoping for. I need to throw all the tropes I've read out of the window, because I am in a predicament that no one else has ever been in before.

But on the bright side, I can now introduce some Common Sense into this world.

What to expect:

◈ Rational, strategic male MC — no power fantasies, no plot armor, every advantage earned

◈ Pre-sect xianxia worldbuilding — cultivation exists, institutions don't, the MC builds them from scratch

◈ Kingdom building , clan building , sect founding — village to settlement to sect progression

◈ Progression fantasy with real costs — every gain is paid for, every system is tested

◈ Cozy village life meets warring states tension

◈ 2,000-3,000 word chapters

◈ Daily updates, three-chapter bonus drops on milestone days

Chen Ran is a good man; he went to Hell.

This is the Hell of Tongue-Ripping (a Buddhist hell for liars). Here, lying is forbidden, and as a result, everyone is engaging in deceit.

Due to conflicting philosophies on deceit, two great alliances were born:

The Liar-Killers Alliance: Lie, and you are instantly killed.

The Whisperer Alliance: Turn lies into truth.

A newbie tutorial with a nearly 100% mortality rate, an insane matchmaking mechanism, a feast of a hundred deceits, the war between the two alliances, and the Great Escape from Hell.

The villains who arrive in Hell will use every means possible to trick lies out of one another.

Chen Ran had many theories about Hell. Is it a virtual world? A world designed to create a God? A mental construct?

As he eliminates the answers one by one, the mysterious veil of Hell is slowly being lifted… <<less

What is the price of a 500-year-old ginseng? Here, it costs annihilated sects and rivers of blood. For Qi Ping, it takes just a few days of watering.

With trash-tier spiritual roots, he was meant to be cannon fodder.

But a Druid class changes all the rules. Why kill for scraps when the forest shares its secrets?

His mutated bees brew honey that eclipses grandmaster elixirs, and his pet crow casually digests the sun.

While immortals tear the heavens apart in endless wars, Qi Ping quietly turns a barren gorge into an impenetrable paradise, hidden behind a wall of millions of venomous stingers.

But this cultivation world is a dark slaughterhouse, and peace is an illusion.

When greedy elders and ancient monsters finally come for his harvest, they won't find a timid farmer.

They will meet the Swarm.

Original Description:

[Druid + Xianxia + Farming + Beast Taming]

Plot Hook:

You’ve reincarnated into a world of immortal cultivation—but your cheat skill is the Druid class from Western fantasy! And so…

【Wildshape】 Transform into primordial beasts: a Chaos Sea Dragon, the Rampage Demon Ape, the Golden Crow (Sun God Bird)… and wield the power of divine beasts!

【Animal Companion】 Bond with a Nine-Colored Deer to gain its “Holy Spirit Blessing”! Tame Stone Ogre Lady for her “Indestructible Earth Body”!

【Summon Treants】 Ever seen a Treant Warrior stronger than a divine beast? Meet the Fusang Tree Guardian, the Bodhi Tree Sentinel… and unleash them in battle!

Thus begins the legend of the most unorthodox “cultivator” the realm has ever seen…

Villains: “Something’s wrong with this ‘cultivator’! Since when do immortals fight like this?!”

Onlookers: “Wait… he’s that guy who started with just a box of bees and built the strongest holy land in the immortal realm?!”

Qi Ping (MC): “This is the true way of the Druid!”

……

【Fake Druid】

Hide in forests + tame wolves/bears + turn into a cat or bear + grow basic treants…

【Real Druid】

Natural Sanctuary + Emerald Dream = The Ultimate Immortal Dao Field!

Bond with Nine-Colored Qilin, Heavenly Phoenix, Nine-Tailed Spirit Fox…

Shapeshift into Rampage Demon Ape, Golden Crow… and dominate with divine beast powers!

【A new work from the author of 'The First Order'!】

Oh, fleeting light, I offer you a cup of wine.

I know not the height of verdant mountains, nor the depth of the yellow earth.

I only witness the cold moon and warm sun, coming to slowly consume our years.



Under the nightfall of Luocheng City rides a spirited youth, whose steed’s hooves echo steadily upon cobblestone streets.

He appears like a character straight from a storyteller’s tale, descending from cascades of clouds and venturing forth into the martial world; journeying onward among verdant peaks, he watches as twilight fades into the western sky.

If one were to ask who roams eternally, untethered in this jianghu—

He would reply thus: the gentle breeze, the bright moon, and I.



Perhaps this is a long story. Please allow me to slowly narrate it.

After transmigrating into a fantasy world filled with dragons, elves, and adventurers, Lance set three iron rules for himself:

Don’t join the crowd, don’t meddle in trouble, and don’t go out after dark.



Unexpectedly, just a few months after his transmigration, the indecent game he used to play in his previous life started chasing after him.

From that moment on, Lance gained inexhaustible stamina and an endless lifespan.

But in this world woven from adventure, dreams, greed, and danger, as a scribe of the Adventurers’ Guild, all he wants is a peaceful life—quietly accumulating strength, and eventually heading to a trade capital filled with beautiful women of different races to fully display his talents.

However, when the tide of the era surges forward and shadows shroud the land, he will ultimately take up his longsword and tear apart the gods. <<less

Overnight, the entire apartment complex transmigrated to a primitive, wilderness world full of biological anomalies.

Survival became the very first hurdle. Food, water, disease, wild beasts, mutated creatures… Just as the residents finally start to adapt, they despairingly discover—it was only the beginning.

Every time they survive a certain period, the complex transmigrates again, each time to a more dangerous zone.

But fortune favors the prepared — each home in the complex is a foldable space, expandable with the right cards. Inside, they can construct buildings, farm land, dig for water, raise pets, even build recruitment centers…

Qin Ziwen, one of the residents, awakens the unique ability: “Daily Settlement” — allowing him to “settle” the day at midnight and receive graded rewards based on his performance.

【Multiple identities, behind-the-scenes protagonist, starts off nearly invincible, mentally abnormal main character】

Good news: I’ve transmigrated!

Bad news: This is a world filled with lunatics and deranged obsessives.

A pure and spotless Holy Knight.

A corpse collector who longs for death.

A traveler who connects the world with his footsteps.

A painter who depicts souls with pigments.

If having your head swallowed by an immortal counts as attaining eternal life together—

Then if all human brains were linked as one, could that truly achieve harmony?

Madmen… madmen… they’re everywhere…

Heh, fortunately, I’m not normal either.

Perhaps a pleasure-seeking misfit is just another kind of madman.

“So many sources of amusement in this world—what a pity it would be not to experience them all.”

Samuel shook his head in regret as he casually removed his own head and hung it on a coat rack.

A Guide to Traveling the Madman’s World:

Please accept others’ kindness and express gratitude. It’s polite.

If someone asks whether you want to go to “Heaven,” refuse—no matter how friendly they seem.

If you feel like you’re being watched, that’s normal. Don’t worry about it.

Do not mock others’ hobbies. It’s impolite.

Lies are bad. Do not deceive poor travelers with lies.

People who smile often are usually lucky—so smile more.

Happiness doesn’t need meaning, just like eating candy needs no reason.

I will never give you up, never let you down, never abandon you, never make you cry, never say goodbye, and never hurt you with lies.

Hehe, I see you.

***

Gemini Description:

In the city of Reins, priests feed orphans to flowers, and knights burn away sins along with living flesh.

Thrust into this nightmare, Samuel doesn’t seek shelter — he willingly absorbs the corruption of others, cold-bloodedly tearing out his own eyes to mold them into clone-spies.

Clashing with beings whose power feeds directly on their own madness, he discovers a twisted sense of comfort. Now, this absolute disaster in a tailored black coat isn't just surviving among monsters, but playfully rewriting their rules to suit himself.

As his flesh-puppets slither through the dark streets, they aggressively disrupt the ruthless games of self-proclaimed gods.

Every crafted copy becomes a flawless tool for stealing fates, relentlessly carving a path toward the identity of the king himself. <<less

【From the author of ‘My Profession is too Personal’!】

He dies a thousand times a day. And remembers every single one.

Each death is just fuel. Across myriad worlds, his clones are born, they struggle, and they perish—in cultivation sects, on futuristic battlefields, in dying galaxies.

Every scrap of power, every secret art, flows back to his one true body.

He is a god being built from a mountain of his own corpses. An emperor whose throne is paved with the memories of a million shattered lives that were all his.

The path to transcendence is a lonely road, walked by an army of one.

And the gate to the real multiverse is about to open. <<less

【Farming/Base Building, No Romance, Strong Female Lead, Witches, Alchemy, Magic, Golems, Cute Pets, Global Survival, Natural Disasters】

After losing her parents and her legs in a car accident, Lan Qingyou was left confined to a bed, just waiting to die. Instead, she was forcibly transmigrated into a savage alternate world ravaged by wild magic, forced to struggle for survival.

Struggle for survival? As if.

Even though she started the game with a measly E-Rank talent and a humble tree-hole shelter, Lan Qingyou didn't lose heart.

She learned alchemy, cultivated magical herbs, and crafted golems, ruthlessly absorbing every ounce of useful knowledge this world had to offer.

Her talent is garbage?

Then she’ll just invent the [Talent Ascension Potion] and upgrade it herself.

The upper limit of the human race is too low?

Then she’ll develop the [Race Transformation Potion] and simply stop being human.

[The World Will acknowledges the 'Talent Ascension Potion' you have created. The World Will grants you the title: 'Witch of the High Tower'.]

[You have become the very first of the Witch Species in this world. The World Will grants you the unique title 'Origin Witch' and awards you the World-Class Magic Item: 'The Emerald Tablet'.]

The others: "Your potions are too expensive! This is price gouging! It's highway robbery!"

Lan Qingyou: "Buy it if you want. If not, get lost."

Someone indignant: "What gives you the right to sit atop your High Tower of Alchemy, looking down at us while we desperately struggle to survive?!"

Lan Qingyou: "My potions are SSS-Rank. My golems are SSS-Rank. The fact that you can even buy my medicine is already my mercy. You should be saying 'thank you'."

Michael didn't want to die. He didn't deserve to die. After a lost battle with cancer that started only a year after he retired, he'd lived what many people would call a full life, but it wasn't enough.

He wanted more time.

Time with his wife. Time with his kids. Time with his grandkids.

When he found himself drawn toward the light, he fought his way away from it. Unfortunately, that didn't take him back to the life he wanted to live.

Reincarnated in another world, Michael is forced to be a Penitent, a soldier in the country he was reborn into in order to pay a debt to society he owes for taking the life of the child whose body he inhabits.

It's not the life he wants, but it's the only one he has.

【Winner of the 2024 Macau International Sci-Fi Award】

After a red meteor slashed through the heavens, human progress ground to a halt.

Since that momentous day, humanity lost its ability to create rockets, nuclear weapons, airplanes, cars…

The towering pyramid of civilization, meticulously built from the achievements of modern science, crumbled into dust.

Yet, the catastrophe didn’t stop there. The grey realm, following the arrival of the red meteor, like a ghostly reflection behind a mirror, dragged the civilized world bit by bit into the abyss of disorder.

In this new age, a human life was no more significant than a speck of dust, yet amidst the ruins, humanity’s spirit shone as brightly as the stars.

Amid the crumbling edifice, observers could see a figure—an actor—defiantly standing on the wreckage of civilization, his red cloak as vivid as blood, his expressions flickering between laughter and tears. Behind him, the curtain of the era gently parted. With arms wide open, he whispered to all who would listen— “Let the show begin.” <<less
