Synopsis
He was the powerful and influencing heir of B City, the merciless head of the commercial world, but the divorce papers made him lose his cool. “Sign the divorce papers, daddy,” said the 5-year-old boy. This man had the divorce papers thrown in his face by his wife six years ago, and was now being pushed by his own son to sign the papers. “That would make you a single-parent child,” said Gu Juexi coldly. “Mommy said unicorns don’t exist but men like you do,” the boy leered at his father and said. Gu Juexi’s face fell. ‘That damned woman.’ “You haven’t signed the papers,” the boy reminded as the man left. As usual, the door shut in his face. Good lord… Dad and mom are not getting a divorce and are giving him a baby brother? How worrying!

My Simulated Road to Immortality

The Immortal Way, how arduous it is! Especially in this Immortal Cultivation World, which has been drastically changed by a plague! Mortals carry the disease, and when Immortals come into contact with them, they are liable to suffer a decrease in their cultivation, and in the worst case, end up Returning to the heavens. This has made Mortals and Immortals eternally separate entities. The Immortal Law cannot be jointly cultivated, turning the entire Immortal Cultivation World into a vast dark forest. ...... Li Fan, having travelled through time, despite having boundless ambitions, can only toil within the mortal dust, wasting away his whole life. Fortunately, just before death, he finally awakens an odd treasure which can turn the real into the fake - transforming his real life into a vivid dream, enabling him to return to the time right after he travelled through time. Therefore, Li Fan began his long Road to Immortality! In his second life, Li Fan, over the course of fifty years, overturned the power balance of the world, yet he searched everywhere and failed to find a trace of Immortals, only managing to see the traces of an Immortal at the very end of his life. In his third life, despite Li Fan exhausting his spirit and wits and laying out all sorts of schemes, he still couldn’t withstand a single strike from an Immortal! In his fourth life...... ...... I, Li Fan, a mere mortal, have no regrets even after a hundred lifetimes, I only seek Immortality!

McCarthy uses a very sparse writing style. He doesn't use a lot of flowery language or detailed descriptions of a beautiful world. Instead, he describes the grey, ash - covered landscapes. For example, the constant mention of the road itself, which is just a long, empty stretch through a dead world. Also, the lack of proper food and resources adds to the sense of desolation.
