"I became a magical girl for you." "More scorching than hope, deeper than despair, that is love." "You probably don't understand, do you? You understand nothing." "This is what a magical girl is! This is what I wanted to see! Hahaha, that's it, this is what I love!" "An unpredictable stage of fate, I understand." "I've never felt happy being a magical girl." "The moon is beautiful, but remember to look at me too." "Without love, without understanding love, love must be extinguished." "Magical girls are born of magic, magical girls are born for magic, and you are my magic." "Even if I break your arms and legs, I will never hand you over to anyone else!"

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.

A virtual reality game called "Whale Fall" becomes a global sensation. The protagonist, Su Zhou, drawn by its popularity, decides to enter the game. However, he and the other players soon discover a shocking truth: this is no mere game. The world of "Whale Fall" is a real, tangible, and often cruel place. The title itself is a metaphor, posing the question of whether this entire world is sustained by the sacrifice of a single, great entity, much like a whale's body nourishes an ecosystem after its death.

Now trapped in a genuine other world, the players, often referred to as the "Fourth Scourge," must confront this new reality. They are forced to fight for survival, grow stronger, and uncover the deep, buried truths behind the so-called game. The story explores their journey of facing this reality and deciding whether to accept their responsibility within it.

The supreme being among the demon race is called the Great Sage!

Sects, noble families, demons and alien races, the ancient catastrophe ten thousand years ago caused the destruction of the world and the order of the cultivation world.

Some small human nations worship demons and monsters as false gods.

There are sects that drive demons to cause chaos just for the sake of incense offerings.

The Black Mountain Old Demon steps on the dark wind, and the Nine-tailed Fox dares to suppress the dragon.

The Northern Ming Demon King chanted the Buddhist sound, and the Demon Saint turned the sea over and changed the yin and yang.

Holding the Xuanfa Ring that can upgrade his martial arts, Li Xuanzong traveled through time twice, from a generation of evil king who roamed the world to a low-level cultivator who relied on demons to survive.

In troubled times, Li Xuanzong reached the pinnacle in order to transcend, and became the Great Sage Hun Tian who stirred up the world in human form!

In the middle of the 21st century, a meaningful message brought mankind to an unknown territory-the Boundary Convention: unknown purpose, unknown source, what kind of crazy extraterrestrial invasion? Or is it an attempt to cover up between major powers?

Since then, earth-shaking changes have taken place on the earth, rising sea levels compress the living space of human beings, and the weird body decomposition makes the only human beings face the crisis of genocide... Everything seems to indicate that human beings will eventually be bound by gravity Live alone, die alone.

More and more things with visions squeezed into this tiny planet from unheard of places. Supporters, opponents, and human beings with their own ulterior motives also began to make enemies in private for their own ideas.

A woman in an oil painting seems to be the key to everything. She makes people crazy but also gives people hope... Can men and women on the pioneers still smile?

What makes a martial artist? The exertion of strength. What makes a chivalrous hero? The exertion of spirit and will. ...A kick decides victory or defeat, a punch determines life or death. "I practice the Netherworld Technique, I've learned my lesson!"

Ye Zhen, a female Ph.D. in the Department of Mathematics of Huada University, changed her career to enter the entertainment industry in order to investigate the death of her birth father, Film Emperor Ye Yi. During her interview, she accidentally made CEO Rong Cheng Jue lose face in public. Yet Rong Cheng Jue, unlike what was to be expected, didn’t take old grudges into account and let Ye Zhen join his company. When everyone thought Ye Zhen would become Rong Cheng Jue’s personal secretary, she actually joined the entertainment department. After several twists and turns, Ye Zhen became an errand reporter for Rongcheng Entertainment’s “Treasures of Great Tang”.

Her colleagues’ bullying towards her, the pressure of changing career, and the many obstacles in her investigation all left her confused. Under Rong Cheng Jue’s silent guardianship, she didn’t forget her original purpose, overcame every obstacle, and eventually became an ace producer.

Ye Zhen and Rong Cheng Jue shared a common belief : no matter how bleak the hope is, how thorny and dark is the road ahead, they had only one thought in their hearts: to uncover the truth, and therefore bring peace to the soul of the Film Emperor Ye Yi.
