(dark, no system, the protagonist is the author's ideal self, multiple female leads, not for those who dislike this) Ten thousand years ago, the so-called Orthodox Path planted a single Dharma Tree and reversed the spiritual veins, violently remade its foundations. From then on, the world was cleaved into two realms:
The Land of Flourishing Dharma: Where flowers bloom daily, fruits ripen constantly, and golden jade forms its pavilions.
The Land of Ending Dharma:Where the rites of the state turn ominous, disasters run rampant, and you are now the honored one.
The Unorthodox Cultivators cultivated... wandered... , , , , the Seven Dharma Gates... among them the Seventh Yellow Group, seeking beauty and joy, overseeing governance and decline, either at the factories of Duzheng Peak or before the Hand of Empress Yuehai, yet they guarded upon the ground.
When a modern soul accidentally falls into a medieval-style magical fantasy world, what the protagonist sees is not entirely romantic—there is the dazzling light of magic and the honorary oaths upheld by knights, but it lacks the nourishment of diverse cultures: entertainment is the same old tunes repeated by bards, aesthetics are trapped in the rigid framework of the Middle Ages, and information is spread through the inefficient path of word of mouth.
To break free from this monotony and gain a foothold in this other world, the protagonist awakens memories of Earth's civilization, thus beginning a "cultural export" that transcends time and space. He uses words as a blade to dissect the spiritual wasteland of this other world; he uses passion as a torch to ignite people's desire for new things.
The story is filled with both the emotional resonance of literary works, allowing the inhabitants of this other world to glimpse different lives and thoughts for the first time, and the unexpected warmth of everyday life—a cup of hot wine offered by a stranger knight, a piece of bread reserved for him by a small merchant. Set against a backdrop of a retro era, the protagonist not only spreads culture but also explores himself—finding his value in creation and sharing, undergoing a transformative growth amidst the unknown and challenges, and ultimately adding a unique touch of brilliance to the world of swords and magic with the cultural spark of Earth.

Execution in thirty days? No, that's the countdown for the nobles.
Geneticist Mo Chen was thrown into the Black Gate Prison, where he activated the [Gene Domination System] on his very first day.
Devouring, stitching together, evolving—every second is pushing the boundaries of what constitutes "humanity."
He first upgraded the prison boss to a "human centipede king," and then transformed the entire prison into a private breeding shed.
The family that framed him in the past has begun receiving "live deliveries":
The eldest son is missing, the collateral branches are fragmented like a jigsaw puzzle, and the ancestor's coffin has been gnawed down to just the genetic code.
The Imperial Inquisition deployed a massive force of steel, but before they could even touch the enemy's DNA, they were swallowed up by a tsunami of flesh and blood and turned into "battle-damaged specimens."
The nobleman's private chamber was dimly lit, and he was still mocking the "cage rat."
The next second, the third young master, with a human face and a rat's body, climbed onto the long table and smiled sweetly:
"Dad, I'm here to inherit the estate."
—Don't blink, the zombie brother just recognized his relatives, and you're next.
(In the abyss of darkness, no fallen leaf is innocent; humanity is twisted into beasts tearing each other apart. Kindness has long since become relics on the altar, while only evil thrives in the cycle—not because they reject the light, but because the first believers of the light have already turned to dust.

Paladin's Conquest of Faerûn
Menzoberranzan in the Underdark is not entirely populated by cruel Lolth fanatics and subterranean elves who only know "betrayal for survival and the supremacy of power." Legends have emerged here, and there are also people who regard those legends as taboo idols.
She once overlooked the Underdark from the highest point of Menzoberranzan; she once enjoyed the highest respect in spacious rooms studded with jewels and precious metals; she never looked back when she abandoned all of that.
