Epic of Immortals: Shattering Night's sky

In the world's long history, since time immemorial, Night has ruled the sky in its hopeless embrace; a world full of hardship drowns the sea of stars, emphasising the fragility of life in the face of darkness. Star Gazing Settlement has faced annihilation. Those who survive the ruin flee in desperation, chased away by the terror of insatiable malevolence. A lone Immortal fights for life, resisting the forces who dare to stomp on his people. Looking up from the mortal world, Dawn witnesses the fall of her home Settlement, the terrible loss of her people, and a hint of the demonic harbingers who scar her life. Like the difference between Heaven and Earth, the pinnacle of the world is far above her. Immortals and Demons are like the peaks of mountains; how could Dawn feel anymore than an ant? The sky was the limit. Night's sky submerged even the Heavens. Yet, even with such a vision before her, she does not yield. In the face of such adversity, she continues to struggle. She continues to defy, to become Immortal! With only two friends to accompany Dawn on her cultivation journey, they overcome countless beasts and Spirits, wield a myriad of mystical abilities, and embrace their Way to become stronger. The Heiress of Defiance struggles against the dark, driven relentlessly by ambition, and to fulfil the legacy of her father. Like the lotus flower, which is born in mud and rises above the murky waters into a beautiful blossom. Witness a seed traverse the lands, overcoming mountains and rivers, all to reach the summit. To reach higher than the Immortal World. To raise her fist and shatter Night's sky.

Bureau of Paranormal Investigation

Shen La, a special forces operative born with the Heavenly Eye, has been able to see ghosts since childhood. During a mission involving a supernatural incident, his abilities were exposed—leading to his recruitment by a hidden Chinese government agency: the Bureau of Paranormal Investigation. This mysterious organization is tasked with investigating and handling all manner of supernatural phenomena. Within the Bureau, Shen La encounters a group of uniquely gifted and eccentric colleagues, including a mysterious white-haired man known only as Invincible, and Sun Fatty, a genius with an exceptionally high IQ. Through a series of increasingly perilous encounters—including the resurrection of the Ancestor Shaman, the haunting Ghost Opera of Qinghe, and a ghost ship that has wandered for centuries—Shen La begins to grow both in power and insight. Yet as the cases deepen, a shadowy force behind the scenes begins to reveal itself. Its ultimate goal appears to be a secret manual said to grant immortality...

Golden Agrabiyya

Ali never meant to die. All he did was chase down a man trying to kidnap a child. One moment he was in Riyadh, the next, a gunshot. Darkness. He wakes up in chains, his throat dry, blood staining his chest, and a name that isn’t his. Zad ibn Salem. A slave. A heretic. Seventh in line for execution by beheading. In his palm, a bloodstained card, black, jagged, and marked with something unholy. The Card of Shaytan. It whispers one truth. "Only in death shall you find the answer." Thus begins a cursed journey through Agrabiyya, a kingdom of golden deserts and cruel kings, forgotten gods and forbidden magic, where fate isn't granted, but stolen. Where ancient cults move in the shadows, angels weep in silence, and wars are waged. What crime did Zad commit? Why was Ali chosen? And what lies beyond the door that only death can open? The answers wait in dust, in blood, and in the quiet laughter of something watching from the dark. IMPORTANT NOTICE: Please note that this is a mystery/fantasy story. Every line is accounted for to enhance your experience. During certain arcs, you may be able to solve mysteries before they are officially revealed, so pay close attention. I can’t say much more. Just remember, always distrust people. Always think one step ahead. Always balance your logic with your emotions. A balance must exist, for in time, you shall find an answer. Another notice: Once the first arc is complete, which is currently ongoing, I’ll be commissioning character art, a new poster, and a system explainer when the time comes. I have a lot of plans. Chapters will release either daily or every two days, and sometimes multiple chapters in one day.

"Plot"-Diary System

A young man awakens in an unfamiliar room. He neither knows where nor who he is. A mysterious diary, emitting a soft purple glow, resides in the space of his mind. Upon it is the name Ryu Seiya. After realizing his name, the diary activates the System Integration, and stories of all kinds enter his mind space, filling it like stars and galaxies. The "Plot"-Diary System tasks him with altering the original progression of the stories. This allows Ryu Seiya to steal the "Fate" that is bestowed upon the Characters from the "Will of the World". This stolen "Fate" is used by the System to grant its Host random abilities in correlation to the characters whose plot has been altered. To facilitate a subtle method of altering "Fate", the System also grants Copies of the Diary that its Host writes to female characters in the world he enters. Through revealing secrets and future events to these characters, their actions and mindset can be influenced. To further incentivize the so-called Copy Holders to assist the "Plot"-Diary System Host, they receive the same regular rewards as Ryu Seiya. Join Ryu as he tries to navigate sometimes perilous and sometimes perplexing stories, beginning with "Monster" by Naoki Urasawa, where he tries his best to stop Johan Liebert and other serial killers from harming the innocent. Experience the romance between a young man and the female characters in various stories that you either love or hate. How will he handle having loved ones in multiple different worlds? This novel will be slow-paced, and the action will take a backseat compared to his planning and interacting with the Copy Holders. Although the diary in their minds helps forge an emotional bond with Ryu Seiya, the romance will be pretty slow unless the female character is known for forming relationships quickly. For example, Elsa in "Monster". The chapter length averages around 3.000 words, and due to the way Ryu Seiya interacts with the story worlds, there will be longer pauses for research between arcs. So don't expect extremely fast updates. I'll try my best to forge a comprehensive narrative with distinctive arcs around the original works, while regularly revisiting the already completed ones and how the members of the Harem use their System-given powers to alter their original world after Ryu is forced to leave for the next story. There will be lemons, but not frequently. Primarily focusing on the first time Ryu spends with each particular woman. Please note that Ryu loves his wives deeply, and there will be no hierarchy in the Harem, as well as no forced sexual interactions on the side of the main character. Except for some of his wives who like various styles of play, Ryu will never degrade or talk down to his wives. They are an integral part of this work due to how the "Plot"-Diary System works. So if you want to see a main character who practically enslaves his Harem, this is not the story for you. Often, Ryu Seiya will also diminish the original protagonists and other male characters in the stories he enters. He has to steal their "Fate" after all, which entails their opportunities, such as finding resources, teachers, and romantic partners. Due to this, he often disparagingly portrays other male characters in his Diary to dissuade the Copy Holders from supporting them as much as possible. This will lead to many pairings of the original works not forming or even breaking up. The System is non-interactive and has no true intelligence. Except for the introduction and distribution of rewards, its only function is to facilitate the Copy Holders and display of a status page. There will be no System-assigned missions, and the Host has complete freedom in how to tackle each story. Due to the limited word count in the description, additional information can be found in the Author review.
