Dear Father Moran Anderson: Congratulations! Although you never smoked, you have been fortunate enough to be diagnosed with lung cancer at an age when your soul is still fresh. Unfortunately, your business of raising "Children of Hell" is not yet complete, and this Duke has been forced to invoke the "delayed death" clause. After all, these slippery little creatures are far less cuddly than they appear. Please ensure that they are regularly fed with delicious souls, whether human, demonic, or angelic. Don't forget to abide by the "Heaven-Hell Truce" and the "Exorcist Association Management Act." You wouldn't want Michael, Gabriel, and the others to know about our transaction, would you? If you have any further questions, you can consult this Duke directly in Hell. I look forward to the day when I can personally harvest your soul. ———Lucifer, the Arrogant Duke, you are trustworthy...

Humanity's future lies in the brilliant starry sky! A powerful civilization is not merely one of technology, but also one of superpowers.

This is a story of gradual rise: from taking our first steps to soaring through the skies, from gazing at the stars to passionate exploration, from being confined to Earth to expanding into space; humanity has never stopped thinking, nor has it stopped its pace of development and exploration.

"Ladies and gentlemen, humanity's first interstellar expedition will be leaving the solar system today. Let us wish them well."

New author, new book, please support me! I'm asking for monthly votes, recommendations, favorites, and clicks! I won't abandon the project, I won't add filler content, and I'll keep updating regularly.

In the first year of Taihe in the Great Xia Dynasty, the world was extremely prosperous and bustling.

The emperor of Yujing cultivates immortality, and the queen of heaven in the palace worships Buddha.

The Lu family built a spider tower that could climb over the mountains, and the Mo family built a flying roc that could surpass it.

Among the upper nine classes, there emerged a sage who inherited the unique skills.

Among the lowest classes, a famous swordsman came and opened a new world.

Military strategists kill millions with swords and spears, and famous masters can kill people with their words.

The secret art of Yin and Yang can reverse the universe and stir up chaos in the mountains and rivers.

The barbarians in the north are heading south, and the ancient gods in the old village want to open up the sea.

In the government, most people are seeking fame and fortune, while in the world, there are many chivalrous people.

The victor is a king and the loser is a bandit in a moment, but subtle words and great principles are passed down for generations.

Conflicts in the world arise from fame and fortune, and justice lies in the hearts of people.

I, a lich, just want to open a shop selling figurines and live a peaceful afterlife. But customers always have strange requests, coming to me to customize outrageous things - "You want a group of skeleton soldiers who can use holy light, am I right?" The bishop nodded.

[Pseudo-D&D][Pseudo-Warhammer][Wizard][Magic][Steam][Dragon][Evil God][Abyss][Alchemy][Potion]

In this world of meshing gears, roaring steam, and the coexistence of magic and gunpowder: dwarves operate sophisticated alchemical equipment, giants wield steam-powered warhammers, dragons soar atop towering mountains, wizards shape the world's landscape, and gods sit in the heavens overlooking the world.

Karl must harness his divinity and master his steam-powered armor to take control of his destiny before the dragons roar and the interdimensional war arrives.

"Either burn through the plane with steam and magic! Or be crushed into dust by the clash of civilizations!"

On his way back from a special forces elite competition, his plane was struck by lightning, resulting in a time-travel experience. A young, single man found himself in another world as a grandfather-aged farmer, facing a multitude of mouths to feed, utterly distraught. How could he lead these adopted children to a better life? Only through hard work. Relying on his family's martial arts skills from his previous life and his maternal grandfather's renowned Anhui-style calligraphy and tea-making techniques, he finally rose to prominence. Raising rabbits, brewing wine, making brushes—he was busy and happy! Playing cards, fighting unscrupulous merchants, fighting eunuchs—he found endless enjoyment in these battles! Making gourmet food, New Year's paintings, and furs—he made a fortune! He devised ways to obtain high-yield crops; peanuts, potatoes, sweet potatoes, and corn—all of which alarmed the imperial palace.

He possesses the talent of "Sudden Enlightenment of All Methods". He can instantly comprehend the essence of any technique, formation, spiritual plant, or weapon refining technique with just one glance.

Abandoned Spiritual Field → Enlightenment of the "Spirit Gathering Formation" → Spiritual Energy Concentration Increases Tenfold! Spiritual Plant Growth Rate x100%!

Ruined ancient temple → sudden enlightenment of "ancient weapon refining technique" → the success rate of refining immortal weapon is increased by three times!

Abandoned mine → sudden enlightenment of the "Secret Art of Seeking Spirits" → ten veins of top-grade spirit stone mines were unearthed!

“Everyone says my mountain is trash, but I see it as the future center of the fairyland!

What I suddenly realized was not about cultivating immortality, but the blueprint for upgrading the entire world!

[Heaven rewards hard work, and diligence can overcome clumsiness. One step a day brings immortality.] [Daily Quest Refreshed] [Quest: Perform ten sets of "Eagle Claw Kung Fu" (0/1)] [Reward: Minor bone strengthening, 1 fragment of Kung Fu Enlightenment] [Shen Lin], the most insignificant outer disciple of the secular Qingyun Sect. With mediocre talent and a bleak future, he thought his life was over. Until a curtain of light unfolded before his eyes. From then on, Shen Lin's life was clearly defined by "Daily Quests." While others toiled to achieve breakthroughs, he fetched water, chopped wood, and fed chickens. While others competed for secret manuals, he strolled the mountains, stared at rocks, and sat on the shore fishing. Just when he thought it was just a system to help him dominate the martial arts world, the quest led him to the world of immortal cultivation beyond the mundane: [Quest: On the night of the full moon, enter the forbidden area in the mountains.] [Reward: Immortal Cultivation Qualification (Spiritual Root Fragment)]

They say that after achieving great fortune, one will become a hero in another world. Why is my life different? Osido inexplicably traveled to a dungeon where strength is paramount, but he's ranked only 999th. [Core Skill: Drainer Activated] [Killing creatures has a chance to gain some skills, allowing you to fully absorb the effects of herbs/potions, etc.] Wow! The drop rate is really high!

"An alchemist who can't cook doesn't make a good cult leader."

Traveling through another world with the [Forge of Destiny], Horn discovered that this world was even crazier than he had imagined.

The high sun has been split, the gods who judged history have gone away, monsters breed in the shadows, and malice comes from beyond the world.

Esotericism, Apprentice, Strange Objects, Dream World, Secret History, Worms, Si Chen.

Eight principles, seven marks, invisible secrets, great knowledge, the path to ascension.

At first, Horn just wanted to save his life, until -

You burned [forbidden knowledge] and gained [multifaceted teachings]

You transformed the [Flesh and Blood Altar] and obtained the [Biological Energy Engine]

[You cooked [Piercing Toxin] and gained [Poison Immunity]]

You rebuilt the [Abandoned Castle],...
