In this latest work by Lord of the Mysteries author, Cuttlefish That Loves Diving, be prepared for a well-thought out and detailed apocalyptic, cyberpunk world with a setting superseding Lord of the Mysteries!

Our protagonist, Shang Jianyao, is crazy—literally crazy, at least that’s what the doctors said. Living in a huge, underground building of Pangu Biology, one of the few remaining factions in this apocalyptic wasteland known as the Ashlands, he acts in unfathomable ways that’s head-scratching, comical, and shrewd. So is he really crazy? Probably.

He has a grand dream: to save all of humanity.

Intricately tied to this dream is something everyone in the Ashlands believes in: Deep in a particular ruin buried away by danger and famine, a path leading to a new world awaits. To step into the new world, one only needs to find a special key and open that certain door.

There, the land is bountiful, as if milk and honey flows freely.

The sunlight is dazzling, as if all coldness and darkness are washed away.

The people will no longer have to face desolation, monsters, infections, mutations, and all kinds of dangers.

There, children are joyous, adults are happy, everything is fine as they are supposed to be.

Every Antiquarian, Ruin Hunter, and Historian roaming the Ashlands knows: That’s the New World.

My name is Li Ran, and I'm trying my best to be a bad student. While I was sleeping in class, I was suddenly chosen to become a player in a bizarre world.

Once I entered the instance, I realized just how bizarre and insane everything inside was.

After clearing the first dungeon, I got a Valkyrie wife for free.

What's worse, when I entered the second instance, another stunningly beautiful woman took a liking to me, but she was terrifying; she could transform into all sorts of beauties by shedding her skin.

Because I can see the hidden hints, I can create a huge distance between myself and other players every time a dungeon ends.

So, from that moment on, I became a capitalist in this bizarre world, earning bizarre power and points, and then harvesting the韭菜 (a metaphor for exploiting others)!

Unbeknownst to me, I have become a giant in this bizarre world!

What was supposed to be a spooky world turned into a simulation game by him?!

[Villain simulation + high-level martial arts world + invincible push + decisive killing]

Lu Qian traveled through time and became a villain and playboy from the Lu family, one of the top families in the Great Xia Empire.

At the beginning, we see the drunken destined heroine Liu Ruyue lying in front of us, motionless.

However, the destined protagonist, who is the bodyguard of Liu Ruyue, the icy school beauty, is nowhere to be found.

Wait, this plot...

[Ding, the unconscious female protagonist of destiny is detected ten meters ahead. ]

[Villain simulator, start! ]

[Use villain points to simulate the life of a villain. ]

[The novice gift pack is opened, and the host gets three opportunities to simulate the villain's life. ]

[Ding, the villain life simulation is starting. ]

[You are the second son of the Lu family. You made a mistake in the capital of Daxia and came to the Magic City to avoid the limelight. However, you have become a person that everyone in the entire Magic City is afraid of. At this moment, you are about to go out to have some fun, but you accidentally discovered the drunk school beauty Liu Ruyue...]

[Liu Ruyue is the daughter of the Liu family and the campus beauty of Magic City University, but she has fallen into a deep coma. The Dragon King bodyguard who seems to be blessed by destiny is not around. You are afraid that Liu Ruyue will catch a cold, so you simply get out of the car and pick her up...]

【.....】

【Tonight, it’s done...】

......

[An hour later, the destiny protagonist who hurried over looked at the disappeared Liu Ruyue and howled miserably: "No!!!"]

......

[Your "Supreme Emperor Bone" has been dug out, and you are dead. ]

[Eternal Life + Low-Key Cultivation + Borrowing Life + No Female Lead + Growth-Type Protagonist]

[Reminder once again: If you enjoy brainless power fantasy and non-stop slaughter, read with caution!!!]

Gu Ming accidentally transmigrated into the cultivation world. At the start, he has endless lifespan and awakens the talent "Borrowing Life" — if he is killed, he will randomly sacrifice a close relative of his enemy to resurrect himself, and even gain one random ability from the sacrificed person.

Need a cultivation license to join a sect?

Not talented enough, so you have to pay to cultivate?

What? I don’t even qualify to pay to cultivate?

Fine! You won't let me cultivate, huh?

Then I'll just outlast everyone — while others study their way to Immortality, Gu Ming endures his way there with sheer lifespan.

Want to kill me? Go ahead. Kill me, and your whole family dies, starting with your parents. Let’s see how many times your family can afford to be sacrificed!!

...

Years later, Gu Ming’s little secret is accidentally exposed. He becomes a plague god in the eyes of all realms — wherever he goes, fear follows. People avoid him like the plague.

Especially those powerful cultivators who like flashy, explosive battles — every time they want a duel, they make sure to steer clear of Gu Ming, fearing they might accidentally kill him.

One righteous sect leader refused to believe the rumors. He found Gu Ming and arrogantly declared:

“I have no family, no ties, I stand alone. Plague God Gu Ming, come — today, I shall rid the worlds of your evil!”

From childhood to adulthood, Zhuang Ziang has always been the so-called child of other people's families. He was a three-good student every year and ranked first in exams. However, because his parents divorced and his father remarried, he became unloved by his parents.

At the age of eighteen, Zhuang Ziang was diagnosed with a terminal illness and was given only three months to live.

In the last three months, Zhuang Ziang decided to release his inner rebelliousness and wildness and be his true self.

When he climbed over the wall to skip school, he met a girl named Su Yudie. In the last journey of his life, a beam of light shone in.
