Sinopse

Lin Xiao traversed to an ultra-fantasy ultra-sci-fi era. Beginning from a Divine Life, he established his Divine Realm, governed his Spawns, ignited his Divine Flame, cohered his Godhead, invaded the Outer Realm, and seized Godheads. With the Cheating Cube that came with his crossing, Lin Xiao conquered countless planes and Crystal Shells, seized Godheads, and at last, became the almighty God among Gods!

Chapter 1Chapter 1: The Game of Supercivilization

```

"Children, the Great Lord of the Grey Mist, the King of the Endless Tide, the Master of the Seven Seas is watching over us!"

"It's time to show our valor and kill these heretics!"

On the broad shallows, Lin Xiao, standing about one meter seventy-eight tall, forcefully pushed off the ground, kicking up a ring of fine sand. He leaped high, each hand clutching a bone knife with a wooden handle, nimbly twisting midair to dodge an incoming bone fork. He then fiercely plunged a knife into the bulging eyes of a Lobster Man before him. His strength, far superior to that of ordinary people, buried the blade deep into the eye socket, cleaving through the shell. Instantly, the Lobster Man's head was split open, yellow and red brain matter splattered everywhere, soon washed into the sea by the rising tide.

With a kick, he sent the Lobster Man's corpse flying. Then, a strange cry came from behind him:

"In the name of the Lord of the Grey Mist, kill these heretics!"

A large group of Gray-scale Fish People, only about one meter twelve in height and resembling children, their bodies covered in fine grey scales... they brandished various fish and bone forks as they rushed past him, charging toward the remaining nine Lobster Men on the other end of the beach with loud cries.

Compared to the child-like stature of the Gray-scale Fish People, these Lobster Men were about one meter sixty-seven tall, their bodies encased in a thick shell. In both size and defense, they utterly dominated.

Unfortunately, they were vastly outnumbered—the seventy to eighty Gray-scale Fish People swarmed them. Even ants can kill an elephant when enough of them attack.

Lin Xiao didn't idle either. After catching his breath, he quickly followed. With a burst of speed, he charged to the front of one encirclement and shouted:

"Make way!"

A few Gray-scale Fish People intuitively parted for him. Lin Xiao used the momentum of his leap to lunge forward, brutally stabbing through the hard shell of a Lobster Man before quickly withdrawing and retreating. The surrounding Gray-scale Fish People swiftly closed in for the kill.

Without taking a breath, Lin Xiao immediately charged toward another Lobster Man. Midway, he suddenly turned, hurling his bone knife from a distance, hitting another Lobster Man that was being attacked and saving a Fishman who was almost impaled to death.

But the injured Lobster Man, in a frenzy, lashed out wildly with its fork, and incredibly struck a Gray-scale Fishman in the head, the bone penetrating more than a dozen centimeters into the skull.

"Fuck! Another one dead."

Lin Xiao cursed inwardly, despairing over the pitiful combat power of his Clan.

But cursing did him no good, and he steeled himself, pressing on with his fight. Leveraging his combat power and skills that far exceeded those of his kin, he killed two more Lobster Men, wounded two others, and rescued his comrades seven times. It took a full half-hour and the deaths of six plus eight more wounded before they managed to kill the remaining Lobster Men.

When the last Lobster Man fell, the many Grey Mist Fish People cheered and pounced on the Lobster Men's corpses. An impatient one grabbed a severed Lobster Man hand and was about to bite into it when Lin Xiao backhanded a punch that sent him flying into the sand.

He paid no mind to the Fishman, instead reaching out to hoist a Lobster Man's corpse high and roared up to the sky:

"The Great Lord of the Grey Mist grants us the strength to defeat our enemies, tonight we shall sacrifice these spoils to the Great Lord of the Grey Mist!"

Immediately, Grey Mist Fish People echoed the shout:

"In the name of the Lord of the Grey Mist!"

This was the big draw, the one with the highest level of faith among all the Clans.

Having said this, Lin Xiao dragged the Lobster Man's corpse towards the opposite end of the beach, while mentally summoning:

"Open panel."

Immediately, a screen that only he could see popped up in front of him, displaying a series of data.

Deity Interface:

Username: Lin Xiao (Citizen ID: txwd542154895147)

True Name: Cyberlex Meyer.

Divine Name: Lord of the Grey Mist, King of the Endless Tide, Master of the Seven Seas.

Divinity: None

Divine Realm: Sea of Grey Mist.

Sects: Ancestral Fish God.

Believers: Grey Mist Fish People.

Occupation: None.

Faith value: 14425 points.

"Not bad!"

Lin Xiao's gaze skipped directly over the first few lines, focusing on the last item regarding faith value, which had increased by roughly seventy to eighty points from the previous 14347 points.

Then, with a thought, he turned to the panel below marked 'Sect Interface,' and with a flash, a second screen popped up.

Sect Interface:

```

"Two more True Believers, not bad."

Lin Xiao smacked his lips as he looked at another racial interface:

Racial Interface

Race: Grey Mist Fish People

Category: Sub-human Species

Grade: Low-grade Race

Profession: None

Talent: Underwater Breathing

Skills: None

Specialty: Basic Swimming,

Constitution: 0.6 (A grown human has 1 point.)

Strength: 0.5 (An eighty-year-old man's momentary burst of energy might surpass yours.)

Agility: 0.4/1.1 (Land/Water)

Spirit: 0.4 (Even with genetic mutation, there's no way to become a spellcaster)

Assessment: An extremely weak aquatic race.

There wasn't much to see in the racial interface; Lin Xiao had seen it countless times, with no changes over the years. However, on the troop statistics panel, there was a pleasant surprise. Out of a total of 107 Grey Mist Fish People, two showed yellow plus signs, indicating that these two Grey Mist Fish People had accumulated enough battle experience to level up.

He immediately focused his consciousness on these two fish people marked with yellow pluses, and instantly, a faint aura of light emerged behind the two fish people, setting them apart from the others.

"I'll promote them once we get back!"

Lin Xiao felt cheerful, which alleviated much of his frustration from the seven losses in his clan.

Life and death are predestined, and wealth is in the hands of Heaven; for such a weak race, dying in battle was commonplace. From initially watching over them carefully, fearing their death, to now treating it as normal, it had only taken Lin Xiao half a year.

Less than a thousand meters away from the battlefield, at the end of a sandy beach, there was a Fish People tribe. The Grey Mist Fish People crushed seashells and mixed them with sand, then added ground fish blood and flesh remnants from their catches to build their houses made of sand structures.

Of course, this was not thought up by the fish people themselves. With the Grey Mist Fish People's pitiful brain capacity, how could they possibly come up with this? This, of course, was the handiwork of the wise, valiant, handsome, and elegant Lord of the Grey Mist, Lin Xiao, who imparted it in the name of a god first to himself, then taught it to these Grey Mist Fish People.

Upon returning to the tribe, the dozens of remaining elderly and disabled fish people joyously welcomed them and carried the spoils back to the tribe. That night, under Lin Xiao's supervision, a 'grand' sacrifice ceremony was held.

"Great Lord of the Grey Mist, King of the Endless Tide, Master of the Seven Seas."

"Creator of all things in the world, the Supreme Being, Spread of Civilization."

"Creator of the Grey Mist Fish People, our Progenitor."

Even though he had read it many times, Lin Xiao still felt a bit of shame when it came to these lines.

But considering it was related to the faith of his clan, he still bit the bullet and continued reading with enduring embarrassment:

"Protect us, the great existence that allows us to survive and reproduce."

"Seborlex."

"Here we offer our sacrifices and our devout faith."

At this point, Lin Xiao's voice suddenly grew louder, and with a booming voice that common fish people could hardly muster, he prayed:

"Oh great Lord of the Grey Mist above, please accept our offering, and grant our brave warriors greater strength!"

With those words, he grabbed the body of a Lobster Man lying next to him and threw it onto the altar. Several more muscular Fish People warriors lifted the Lobster Man's corpse onto the altar, after which Lin Xiao grabbed a Bone Staff and began to fervently perform a self-invented Maori war dance.

Inspired by him, the Grey Mist Fish People around the altar also began performing their familiar war dance.

At that moment, much like a Fanatic Believer, the Fishman Leader, who was dancing zealously, suddenly stopped and returned to normal. However, on an unnoticed level, a golden ray imbued with a profound aura shot into the sky. Above the tribe, it transformed into a golden human silhouette, which resembled a handsome young human male.

This golden silhouette was shrouded by a layer of profound power, indistinctly obscuring the view.

Lin Xiao surveyed the surroundings; being able to see through his Divine Realm, which was five kilometers long, three and a half kilometers wide, and one kilometer high in just one glance. The vast Divine Realm was silent in the night, only this Grey Mist Fish People tribe held some light and sound.

This small tribe of just over a hundred members was all of Lin Xiao's clan, comprised of just twelve Level One Fish People warriors and ninety-five Level Zero Fish People.

Well, there was also him, the Lord of the Grey Mist doubling as Tribal Chief, a formidable Fishman standing at 1.78 meters tall, a giant in the eyes of the other Grey Mist Fish People.

"Open the racial interface!"

The familiar light screen popped up, and Lin Xiao expertly found the troop statistics interface, located the two Level Zero Grey Mist Fish People marked with a yellow plus, and tapped with a finger exuding faint golden light. Two hundred faith points disappeared, and the two Level Zero Grey Mist Fish People were thus promoted to Level One Grey Mist warriors.

This was merely a tap on his part, but in reality, it manifested as two streams of golden light flying out of the Holy Proof in the center of the altar and striking the two fish people cheering around the altar. In the next second, both Grey Mist Fish People emitted a roar, growing visibly larger.

In less than ten seconds, these two fish people grew from 1.1 meters to between 1.2 and 1.3 meters tall, a head taller than their kin, and even more robust with darker and tougher scales on their bodies.

After a brief moment of stupefaction, the two newly-promoted Fish People warriors realized what had happened. They were the first to kneel before the Holy Proof on the altar, representing the Lord of the Grey Mist, and began to utter words of adoration.

Above the Vault of Heaven, Lin Xiao filtered out the adulation he had heard countless times and had grown tired of. He was now focusing on the threads of faith representing these two fish people in his sea of consciousness, which had thickened, transforming from True Believers to Devout Believers, with their faith value contribution increasing from 0.2 points per day to 1 point, a fivefold increase.

Besides that, as they witnessed their own kin empowered by the Lord of the Grey Mist and promoted right before their eyes, fifteen more True Believers and three additional Devout Believers were born.

With that, the number of Devout Believers in Lin Xiao's clan jumped to nineteen, while True Believers reached forty-three, with the daily provided faith value rising once again.

This was the main reason why he didn't promote them on the spot but rather during the sacrifice ceremony. For what could be a better way to bolster the faith of believers than personally displaying a divine miracle?

Although this was no miracle, but a mere promotion of troops, for a professional player of the Divine Enthronement game, such maneuvers had already become instinct.

Satisfied, Lin Xiao closed the panel and took one last look at his own Divine Realm. With a thought, he transformed into a beam of golden light that shot into the sky and vanished.

Intergalactic conquest with an AI

Rex was just another slave in the corporate machine, a faceless office worker under the shadow of one of the galaxy's powerful megacorps. His life was predictable and dull, an endless cycle of meaningless reports and fluorescent-lit monotony. That was, until that day.... When a new world was discovered on the outskirts of the galaxy, Rex, like countless other low-ranking employees, found himself dragged into a contract clause he’d barely skimmed years ago. The megacorp ordered him and his coworkers to pack their lives into a transport pod and leave for the unexplored planet. Their mission? Establish a colony. Mine resources. Make the company richer. There was no choice, refusing meant ruin. At first, everything seemed manageable. The days were grueling, the nights cold, but progress was steady. The colony was coming to life. Until the excavation team struck something. No one knew what it was at first, a buried hive, a forgotten ecosystem, or something ancient and dangerous. Whatever it was, it unleashed hell. Swarms of enormous, chittering creatures erupted from the ground, their jagged bodies blotting out the sky. The colony fell into chaos. Screams echoed through the air as the bugs tore through everything in their path, walls, machines, and people. Rex barely survived. Bloodied, broken, and pinned beneath the rubble, he should have died there. But in the pitch-black silence of his fading consciousness, a voice spoke to him. Cold. Mechanical. Otherworldly. "Do you wish to live?" When Rex woke, he was no longer the man he’d been. His body was no longer human flesh and bone but something far more alien. His skin shimmered with living metal, his mind infused with the power of Cleo, a mysterious AI from a long-extinct, robotic race known as the Kaelzars. Cleo’s presence pulsed through his thoughts, guiding him and transforming him. He wasn’t just alive. He was reborn. But survival came at a price. Rex was no longer a pawn of the megacorp; he was something more dangerous, something they couldn’t control. As Cleo’s intentions began to reveal themselves, Rex found himself standing on the precipice of war, not just with the bugs but with forces far greater than he could have imagined. This was the beginning of a journey through blood-soaked battlefields and treacherous alliances. Along the way, Rex would encounter allies, brilliant, flawed, and unpredictable, and enemies whose ambitions were as sharp as their blades. These weren’t disposable foes, easily crushed by an overpowered hero. They were cunning, relentless, and human in the most terrifying ways. But then again, in war, who can truly be called a villain?

I actually read the whole trial read novel!? (40 chapter review) So, this is so confusing even if you read the whole 40 chapters, but so basically Humanity discovered this game 'Game of Deitification' that literally influences the real world. In the Game of Deitification or GoD for short you become a god. Divine life --> Demigod --> true god. The mc of course starts as a divine life, with a reasonably good background (And yes he uses his own background for resources, he's not stupid) His beginning race he could choose are murlocks (Demi-humans adapt in water, they trash and weak) (But mc chose it because his world is only water with low amount of land and other factors) MC's cheat is a cube that can extract certain abilities, bloodlines ect, and combine them. That's enough about the mc, so, humanity can influence GoD to a certain degree. They don't have actual full authority, you would see them more as co-operators of the game but they can't change like actual rules of the game, that's why they are more of a co-operator instead of an admin. Now, other basic info: 1. People become gods = increased lifespan and strength 2. There are something called 'crystal shell' things, basically half-planes, a small world (From what I assume with the information given to me) 3. Currently no romance seen, just the mc strengtnening his own realm (If people know if this novel is harem do tell me! I hate harem) 4. Quire a lot is explained so don't skim over otherwise you wouldn't know certain things. So, about the background, I don't understand a single thing, do tell me if you figured it out. Like I just told you there exist crystal shell thing so I don't know if it's also in the real world or just the game world. Oh yeah forgot about this, as divine lives/gods they have a real body in the game world and if they die with it they die for real. Translation Quality: 5* (Good but it's just confusing due the author) SoU: 5* (Trial read) Story Development: 4* (Honestly, it's fun reading the mc getting stronger) Character design: 3* (Mc isn't stupid, the side characters..... Not much shown) World background: 4* (No matter how confusing it is, the author did tell a bit so I just give 4*) Overall rating: 4.2 Personal rating: 4.1

Why I like this novel: 1. Cliche-breaking. This author takes almost perverse joy in shattering cliches. - MC has no elder, or little sister (so many cliches were avoided because of this). - The MC isn't being bullied at all, instead he lives a life comfort, being pampered by his (powerful, wealthy) loving parents. What's more, the MC doesn't reject the kindness of his parents out of pride either, he accepts their kindness gratefully! - The author hasn't littered the MC's classroom at school with 'Heavenly Beauties'. Instead in the entire school, of 10,000 pupils, there's only one belle. No love interests so far either! 2. The protagonist himself. He's a rare gem, with a quirky, realistic personality. He's antisocial, and because of that he is knowledgeable. The choices he makes are reasonable when you consider his personality. Furthermore what truly makes this MC stand out is his special talent. He is a born cult-leader! His talent at indoctrination is beyond words. This really helps in MC's career of choice (becoming a god). 3. World-building. The world-building looks complicated, but it's simple if you think of it in D&D terms. There's millions of planes (worlds), and Earth is the nexus. 4. Divine-kingdom. A divine-kingdom is a lot like an aperture in Reverend Insanity. Individuals cultivate the land to produce a special type of energy: faith. Faith can be produced by any living being. However since the divine-kingdom is limited in space, to grow in power an individual must colonise new lands. The more new lands that're conquered, the more subjects they can gain - which directly translates greater production of faith. This is a simplification. 4. The power system looks complicated but it's very simple. Divine being (you become a divine-being by unlocking your divine-kingdom, which only 1/100 humans have talent for) --> Demi-God (accumulate enough faith energy, and requires minor understanding of a dao path) --> True God (full-comprehension of a dao-path. E.g. Dao of Art). There's more after this, but they haven't been revealed yet. 5. MC's 'gold-finger'. Creation-cube. It's basically a blender! Blend 3 common items, and the end result will be an uncommon item. And so on. Give this novel a try. Just from the sheer amount of detail alone I know that the author put a lot of effort into this novel. This isn't just the same plot copy-pasted like so many other Chinese novels. This reads, and feels unique.
