Synopsis

A generation's mighty and most powerful expert died mysteriously and reincarnated without any memories on a small planet far away from the Cultivation World. This small planet was earth. Five thousand years ago, a great calamity descended on earth. Countless Spatial Cracks appeared in the sky and beasts invaded. After hundreds of years of fighting, humans discovered they could awaken a battle spirit that can help them raise their strength and grant them the abilities that were simply unimaginable for humans before. Qin Feng also awakens his battle spirit but unfortunately, it was swallowed by his own birthmark, The Infinity Symbol. This was just the beginning of the mysteries that surrounded him like invisible specks of dust. He soon discovered that the 'Infinity Symbol' was actually not his birthmark but something mysterious from another world. The Infinity Symbol helped him awaken a Divine Battle Spirit and granted him a Nameless Cultivation Technique that was beyond the world's limit. He also discovered that he could not die! Every time, he was killed, he returned back in time with the memories of what is going to happen in the future. Soon after awakening the Divine Battle Spirit, a mysterious beautiful lady stepped into his life and told him that he does not belong to the earth. He was actually the reincarnation of someone called 'KING'. The mysteries that surrounded him like the invisible specks of dust started to come on the surface from the day of his awakening, revealing many secrets to him. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- There are some grammatical errors so please ignore them and enjoy the story.

Please welcome Sir Arthur Hastings to deliver a speech on the occasion of the fiftieth anniversary of the founding of the University of London.” Arthur's gaze swept across the crowd before him, looking at the young faces and murmured, “Agares, what do you think I should say?” The Red Devil's wraith hovered behind him, saliva almost dribbling from the corner of his mouth, “Look at these ignorant souls; they still worship you as a hero. Why not say something they'd like to hear?” Arthur took a deep breath and let out a deafening roar, “Oxford is a bunch of whores' bastards!” “Oh!!!!” The audience erupted into thunderous applause. “Cambridge is the same!” he added immediately.

One great Christmas mystery novel is 'The Adventure of the Blue Carbuncle' by Arthur Conan Doyle. It has all the elements of a good mystery set during the Christmas season. Another is 'Hercule Poirot's Christmas' by Agatha Christie. Poirot is faced with a complex murder mystery in a family gathering during Christmas. Also, 'A Christmas Carol' by Charles Dickens can be considered in a sense. Although more of a ghost story, it has an element of mystery as Scrooge tries to figure out the meaning behind the spirits' visits.

Yes. 'The Santa Claus Murder' is an excellent Christmas mystery novel. The title itself is quite catchy. In the story, when Santa Claus is found murdered, it sets off a chain of investigations full of twists and turns. Another great one is 'Christmas is Murder' by Val McDermid. It combines the festive atmosphere of Christmas with a dark and engaging murder mystery. And 'The Ghosts of Christmas Past' by a relatively unknown author is also a good read. It has elements of the supernatural mixed with a mystery that takes place during Christmas.
