Decaying World

by karlmaks — Mystery, despair, pain, and decay — the world is losing its way, and I no longer know where I should go. Arriving in a world on the brink of ruin, filled with danger and devoid of hope, I can only rely on the mysterious blood mark on my body, continuously deducing and evolving various skills, in an attempt to carve out a path of survival amidst despair.

Chapter 6: Joining II

by karlmaks — Clear Wind Taoist Temple interior. On the training ground behind the main hall. Rows of teenagers dressed in gray short martial attire stood in neat formation, holding short branches, waiting for the Taoist priest in front to impart martial arts. “I am Mingxiu, and I am the Taoist priest specifically responsible for teaching you the fundamental sword style.” The Taoist priest had a handsome, jade-like face and a burly physique, giving him the strange, contrasting appearance of a scholar's head…

Chapter 1: Awakening

by karlmaks — Dark night, the surroundings were like ink. A tiny orange flame, the size of a bean, quietly burned in the darkness. It seemed to be the world's only light. The flame flickered and swayed, so fragile that a single breath could extinguish it. In the weak light it cast, a young man with a pale face and bloodshot eyes sat quietly on one side. The man was about fifteen or sixteen years old, with ordinary, unremarkable features. He was lightly biting his lower lip; the color of his lips was very…

Chapter 12: Low Point II

by karlmaks — “A Jiang, I know you and the Fourth Brother are close, but the situation is different now. We absolutely cannot be perceived as having colluded with the Fourth Brother's actions, or the trouble will be enormous!” Lin Chaoyi earnestly admonished him. “It's a good thing Father gave the Fourth Brother's quota to Hongyu back then, otherwise the quota would definitely be null and void now. That honest boy from the Fourth Brother's family, with his poor aptitude, wouldn't have amounted to anything even…

Chapter 14: Parting II

by karlmaks — “No need to talk like that. Even if we can't be in-laws, the two young people can still be good friends and keep in touch.” Lin Shunhe forced a strained smile. Lin Hui, walking closer, immediately understood what had just transpired. He realized the girl in the white skirt hadn't favored him, which was normal. His physique had recently firmed up, but his facial features were still the same—unremarkable. It was better before when his family background enhanced his status, but now the family…

Chapter 46: Thoughts II

by karlmaks — After Xiaohu and Little Fatty came over to pay their respects, they also left. Only then did Lin Hui grip his longsword tightly, closing his eyes to prepare himself to feel the power of Boundless Wind Direction. The first move was originally called Formless Wind Direction. Now, after evolution, it had become Boundless Wind Direction. Its power had undoubtedly increased; what he wanted to see now was by how much. Swish! Suddenly, he gripped the sword in his right hand, instantly dispersing over…

Chapter 25: Incident I

by karlmaks — Green Ink Tower was located at the boundary between the Inner and Outer Cities, right next to the tall, pristine white city wall. The entire structure resembled a massive golden sculpture, with layers of golden light continuously shining out from within. That light was the reflection cast by the lamps on the gold-dusted walls and windows. The entire building was shaped like a teapot. The entrance was at the teapot's handle, and the spout in front was a unique, translucent private room. Lin Hui…

Chapter 57: Identity I

by karlmaks — After calming down for a while, Lin Hui carefully sensed the state of the internal force within his body. He was extremely curious about this peculiar power that could not only provide defense and enhancement but also elevate one's overall physique. Extending his hand, he stared intently at his palm, circulating a sliver of internal force into his fingertips. Under the morning light, a faint white glow slowly lit up at the tips of his fingers. The white light was very weak and faint, yet clear…

Chapter 4: Moving House II

by karlmaks — Lin Hui gazed in the direction of the Inner City. From far away, he could only see a massive white stone wall enveloping the entire urban area. The white wall was at least several hundred meters high, its upper half disappearing into a faint cloud of mist. The wall's surface was smooth and even, giving off an aura of stark, white solemnity. The entire white wall, from top to bottom, left to right, appeared to have been forged from a single piece. “Why are they all going to the Inner City?”…

Chapter 36: Change of Heart IV

by karlmaks — “The reason is none of your business,” Deng Mingchao said coldly. “Heh heh...” Mu Qiaozhi chuckled, her fit body moving like a female leopard as she slowly closed the distance. “You look very angry?” “Why shouldn't I be angry? Facing a traitor...” Deng Mingchao's expression turned mocking, but he was interrupted before he could finish. “What did I betray?” Mu Qiaozhi laughed. “Seriously, Junior Brother Deng, isn't your thinking a bit laughable? The Clear Wind Taoist Temple…
