Just_mE10
Fifteen years. That’s how long Dex Williams survived in the world’s most brutal high-security prison, a place where hope goes to die and only the ruthless prevail. He thought his story ended with a cold blade between his ribs during a prison riot. He was wrong. Dex wakes up not in hell, but in a world of sprawling magic and soaring dragons, inhabiting the body of a young noble who has just been assassinated. But this isn't just any world, it’s the setting of a fantasy novel he once read to kill time in his prison cell. Now, Dex is no longer a scarred convict; he is a noble in a powerful family. There’s just one problem: in the original story, the character he now inhabits was a minor "extra" destined to be murdered in the first arc. And so, Dex Williams begins his journey within the Falus Forest, one of the most dangerous and bloodiest places in this world. Armed only with his sharp intelligence and his prior knowledge of this world’s secrets and his experience of living inside the world's most dangerous prison for fifteen years.

Eternal Emperor's Path to Ascension

(Chapters 1 to 40 are being edited right now) (Note: Reading Prologue is not necessary, hence why it's an Auxiliary Chapter) The Path to Immortality is elusive, and everyone wants to achieve it even if there's only a glimmer of hope. Tian Yongheng is a person who regained his past life memories after his family was brutally slaughtered. His extreme fear of death and desire to be undying have forced him to step onto this dangerous path of Immortal Cultivation. He is not a Chosen One who is the favored son of heavens, nor is he the reincarnation of a Immortal Emperor. Armed with a unique system of unknown origins and his obsession with immortality, he sets forth to carve a way of his own in this world where fate toys with one's very existence itself and cosmic horror-like beings devour universes for fun. However, can he really touch the illusory, eternal, and ethereal Immortal Dao that is everlasting and everchanging? Will he ever be able to reach the end of this grand path to eternity, establishing himself as a myth and beyond? or will he also drown in the long river of history just like many others? ------- The background settings and world building of this story are greatly inspired by Top Tier Providence, Secretly Cultivate for a Thousand Years. the main characters are also pretty similar, so if you like stories where the MC is a hidden powerhouse who, despite being hidden, is still known across the world, then you can give it a try. Please be patient while reading, as this is my first time writing a novel and don't hesitate to point out any mistakes I do in the comments. Also, I'm not a native of China, so there are probably going to be a lot of mistakes in names and history and stuff, please bear with it. Note: English is not my first language and the cover image is not mine. At the end of every week, Sunday GMT+8, 1 extra chapter will be released per 100 Power Stones, and at the end of every month, 1 extra chapter will be released per 10 Golden Tickets.
