In the 28th year of Zhizheng, the emperor ascended the throne and issued an edict: No going out to sea! No going out to sea! No going out to sea!

In the 4th year of Xiaokang, the ghost coffin of Zhuohe River jumped over the Dragon Gate, taking away all the corpse fishers of Zhuohe River; in the 8th year of Xuande, the treasure ship fleet returned to Liujiagang, but there was no one on board...

Opening the history books, the water veins of the world and the vast ocean in the east always make people feel terrified between the lines of the pages.

Fortunately, as early as the first year of the Han Dynasty, the nine heavenly spirits descended to make a covenant with people and established the Three Officials Alliance.

With [Lord of the Land and Grain·True Dragon Emperor] as the respect, the Three Officials of Heaven, Earth and Water are worshipped as the main worship, forming a Shinto official system covering all kinds of people, inside and outside:

walking on the mountains and collecting water, leading the fire to rob the bucket, leading the sheep to play with the monkey, Lu Ban ghostwriting, gold dot orchid... everything is included.

Since then, for a thousand years, the Three Officials have been on duty and cursed the mountains and seas!

Wang Cheng came into this world with a [Four Seas Tongbao], and when he opened his eyes, he was tied to a royal ship that was about to be sacrificed.

He was shocked to find that as the orphan of the East Sea King, the leader of the maritime merchants, he had already stepped into the whirlpool of the millennium changes in the East China Sea, the South China Sea, and even the world.

In my previous life, I was half a step short of playing chess and ultimately failed to reach the top.

Traveling back to the past, this time... I want to become the strongest in this world!

To become the strongest in this world, you only need three simple steps:

1. Picked up a demon girl who just traveled through time on the street.

2. Subdue demons and monsters.

3. Bring her cultivation techniques.

Yay! Already invincible!

Many years later, Yan Yu, who had won the title of "the strongest", accepted an interview with a TV station:

Host: Who do you most want to thank for your success today?

Yan Yu: I want to thank a woman who is very important to me.

Host (eyes lighting up): Oh, is she your good wife?

Yan Yu: No, it’s just a stepping stone.

Host (wiping sweat): So... what about your other teammates? They should have helped you too, right?

Yan Yu: How could the long stairway to godhood have only one stepping stone?

(Main text complete, silly side stories coming soon) "Humans are human, demons are demons. Your father is human, your mother is a demon, so you are—" Yu Youyou tucked her fluffy tail under her skirt, reminding everyone, "I'm a half-demon!" * A post-apocalyptic medical genius transmigrated into a sickly half-demon, panting after three steps, coughing up blood after five, on the verge of death. This cultivation world even has species discrimination, and half-demons are at the very bottom of the hierarchy! Initially, both demons and humans looked down on Yu Youyou, this mixed-blood half-demon. Humans called her a monster, demons called her a bastard, and even her own father considered her a stain on his life, cruelly abandoning her. But Yu Youyou not only didn't die, but grew more and more energetic, able to climb five mountains in one breath without getting out of breath, and became a revered master of medicine. Human cultivators begged her...

Sword Xia of the Shu Mountains《蜀山劍俠傳》by Huanzhu Louzhu 還珠樓主 (lit. Master of Returning Pearl Loft) was published between 1932 and 1948 and is one of the most influential wuxia novels of all time. Many of the elements in this novel became standard tropes of the wuxia genre. It is also the forefather of the modern xianxia cultivation novel. Huanzhu’s cultivation system became the standard, fusing the Daoist quest for transcendence with the Buddhist reincarnation cycle and tribulation system, as well as the Confucian virtue of humaneness 仁 and the chivalrous xia 俠 archetype. At over 4.1 million Chinese characters, it is also one of the longest wuxia novels, though it remains unfinished due to the civil war in China. So the first cultivation novel was also eunuched—rather fitting.

The story follows multiple protagonists as they gradually gather together, fighting heretical sects and spirit elementals on their way to founding the Mount Emei Sect. Most outstanding among these protagonists is Li Yingqiong, who begins the novel as a girl with no martial arts abilities, and through the course of the novel cultivates to become a transcendent (aka immortal).

In this novel, plants, animals, and monsters can all become human and cultivate to transcendence, or lose their primordial spirit (aka nascent soul) and have to start all over, or be obliterated completely after failing their tribulation. Grotto-heavens and magic treasures abound, and we see the beginning of sects as major organizations in wuxia novels with important roles in the plot, such as Emei, Qingcheng, Mount Hua, Wudang, Mount Huang, Snowy Mountain, Kongtong, Kunlun, and Wutai, as well as the emergence of what would later become the archetypal eccentric beggar character. There are miraculous drugs, sword kinesis, and battles between mythical beasts, and heretic cultivators trying to cheat their way to a faster transcendence. In short, pretty much all of the elements one normally sees in the typical xianxia cultivation webnovel.

Traveling back to the Northern Song Dynasty, he became Wu Song, and from then on he unfolded a magnificent fairy tale landscape.

One hundred and eight demons reincarnated and caused chaos;

The spirit of the true dragon is torn apart, and the Song and Yuan Dynasties are fighting;

The Xianmen and the Hiddenmen appeared one after another to control the court;

Confucianism, Taoism, Law, and Buddhism are all yin and yang, and a hundred schools of thought contend:

Taoist priests who guard the dragon veins, demons who escape from control, monks who guard the destiny of the country, warlocks who kill invisible people, low-level sects, secret successors who control machine beasts, Meng Yuan warships sailing into the sea...

A different world of immortals and heroes...

This is my first time writing a novel. Welcome everyone to go to Tomato Novel to read my work. I hope you will like it. Your attention is my motivation for writing. I will try my best to tell every story well!

"When the system falls in love with touching fish, when the villain is addicted to collecting coffin boards - see how the offline host subverts the immortal cultivation world with sand sculpture skills, and walks out of a warm anti-routine fairy road in the violent love story and cold character collapse!"

Protagonists: Lin Xiaolang, Su Yu

In the vast world of immortal heroes, where hierarchies are rigid, the lower-class cultivators suffer immense oppression. The heroine, Lin Yao, was once a forsaken disciple of a sect whose spiritual roots were destroyed, and the hero, Su Ran, was also a mediocre individual. However, they unexpectedly activate a mysterious system. This system becomes the key to their destiny, allowing them to unlock rare resources and powerful techniques by completing quests.

However, their rise to power draws the jealousy and covetousness of numerous villains. These villains attempt to seize system resources, spreading rumors and accusing the protagonist of using sorcery, causing the protagonist to be misunderstood and spurned in the world of immortal cultivation. Meanwhile, the traditional forces of the immortal cultivation world view the protagonist as an alien and are filled with hostility, setting up obstacles at every turn to restrict their development.

But the protagonists refuse to give up, relying on the system to continuously improve their strength. However, every victory comes with the consequences for those around them, causing them unbearable pain. Meanwhile, a greater crisis looms. The final boss secretly plots to break the ancient seal. If successful, it will bring about a catastrophe that will destroy the world. The protagonists must improve their strength within a limited time to stop the final boss's plot.

On this challenging and perilous journey to immortality, Lin Yao and Su Ran support each other, rising from the bottom. Can they break free from the traditional power structure of immortal cultivation, uncover the truth of reincarnation, defeat the final boss, and save the world of immortal heroes? Can they resolve misunderstandings and reap the glory and love that belong to them?
