Synopsis

Humans of Earth were transported to the Divine Sky Realm, a world brimming with fortune and danger. In this celestial domain, humanity now dwells upon floating islands, ascending as rulers. When else will you get the chance to be a king and vie for supremacy? The system bestowed powers upon chosen individuals, granting limitless luck. Lein, an ordinary office worker, received the SSS-rank talent - Infinity Duplicate. There was nothing in this world that he couldn't duplicate, not even god-tier materials. The path to becoming the strongest lay before him. Yet, Lein knew all too well that it required a process. Even the gods needed a process to create the universe. The Divine Sky Realm offered a fantastical life that Earth's humans had always dreamed of. Soaring through the skies, shattering mountains, rising to the pinnacle in all endeavors. But humans remain humans, wherever they are, driven by their innate nature: greedy and unaware of their limits. Humans believed they were the sole inhabitants of the universe, thinking only they received the system's fortune. But reality proved otherwise. Other races in the universe were granted the same blessings, without distinction. In fact, the human physique was considered low-tier. Races like the Wood Elves, Dwarves, Goblins, Dragons, and countless others possessed bodies that defied the heavens from the outset. Could humans survive in the Divine Sky Realm? We can only hope for the best. The humans found themselves in a realm where dreams and nightmares walked hand in hand, a place where every desire and fear took form. Floating islands became their new kingdoms, a testament to their newfound power and ambition. Lein, an unremarkable man back on Earth, now wielded the power of Infinity Duplicate, a gift that could make him invincible.

He also had a fiance who was the heir to a principality. To make matters even worse, he was talentless in martial arts and magic where he couldn’t even learn both. “So what if I can’t do magic? I have my farm. Let’s see you try and attack me! I’ll let my bugs out to devour all of your military rations! I’ll put pesticides in your water source and grow weeds on your land! Let’s see you try and attack me after that!” “What? You’ll hire assassins to kill me? Try and do that when I’m hiding inside my farmhouse. Once that is over, I’ll rid your country of all your food sources! Your citizens will come after you instead of you coming after me!” The shut-in had a slightly foul personality. This is a story of how he, and his farm, became a nightmare to the people of a world of swords and magic.

For example, the lives of the courtesans and the samurai in some works are depicted as being in flux, with their joys and sorrows being short - lived. There is also a focus on pleasure - seeking, as seen in the descriptions of entertainment areas like the Yoshiwara in Edo period literature.

Well, the floating world in Japanese fiction typically showcases a hedonistic side. People are shown enjoying the momentary pleasures. It's a world filled with vivid descriptions of the urban lifestyle, like the bustling marketplaces and the nightlife. And it usually has an undercurrent of melancholy because of the transient nature of all these pleasures. The settings are often detailed, whether it's a teahouse or a theater, and the relationships between characters are complex, with a mix of love, loyalty, and rivalry.

The concept of the floating world has a huge influence on Japanese fiction. It offers a distinct cultural and social context. Writers can delve into themes like the search for meaning in a world full of transient pleasures. It also allows for the exploration of the contrast between the public and private lives of characters. For instance, a character might seem carefree in the floating world of entertainment but have deep - seated insecurities in their private life. This duality makes the stories more engaging and relatable.

Compared to other fictional concepts, the floating world has a more nuanced view of human relationships. In many Western fictions, relationships are often straightforwardly good or bad. But in the Japanese floating world, relationships can be complex and ambiguous. For instance, the relationship between a courtesan and her patron might involve elements of love, obligation, and economic transaction all at once. And the floating world's focus on the immediate and the transient is not as common in other fictional worlds.

A floating Japanese novel often has an element of dreaminess. For example, the plot may not follow a very strict linear structure, but rather seem to drift from one scene or thought to another, much like how things float in a dream. It gives a sense of detachment from a very rigid reality.

If I can't become an immortal, I can only become a demon.

Chen Ren awakened a panel. The panel was very simple. Killing ghosts would make him stronger. However, he gradually realized that something was wrong. Every time he killed a ghost, a ball of Yin Qi would fuse into his body. As the level of Yin Qi on the interface gradually increased, Chen Ren felt that he was about to become a real ghost. Suppressing the Yin Qi from entering his body, a strange spider lily grew out of his chest. Every time the flowers bloomed, Chen Ren would go berserk… P.S.: This book is mainly about the plot, not about leveling up, and half of it has a black soul background. Soul scientists, don't take it too seriously. I've only borrowed a portion of the settings and some famous scenes.
