Crime Prison Island

After the nuclear war, the world was controlled by twenty mega-corporations that established a global government. Governed by AI, it judged everything. Gao Xin, who had only wished to live a peaceful life, inexplicably became a scapegoat for the elite and, unable to pay the imprisonment fee, was sentenced to ten years of exile on Crime Prison Island! On this island, there were no laws, no constraints, the only order being the numerous game arenas set up by the officials. The criminals could only participate like racehorses for the entertainment of the elite. Yet, on this prison island filled with Radiation, cyborgs, and many powerful villains, Gao Xin had no strength, no talent, and no background—like a sheep thrown into a crocodile pool, no different from being on death row. How could an ordinary person like him survive under the oppression of the strong, the geniuses, and the wicked? Unless in this world, there was a path, a path that allowed even the weakest to continuously break their shackles.

'Sorcerer's Shadow' is a compelling read, seamlessly blending elements of magic, politics, and crime noir. The characters, particularly the protagonist, are intricately crafted, pulling readers into their world. The suspense and mystery that permeate the narrative keep the readers engaged and on their toes. This book is already a tantalizing read with only a few chapters released.

The Daily Life of a Salted Fish Immortal Cultivator

This was a world led by cultivators. The status of cultivators was superior to that of mortals. However, it was unknown when it started, but the strong preyed on the weak in the cultivation world, and killing and stealing treasures became a common occurrence. People only saw the endless scenery on the Immortal Road, but they did not notice that the bones on the roadside had already piled up into mountains. Who told you that this is the daily life of a cultivator? Could it be that being like this all the time was right? Li Anran saw this clearly. After reaching the sixth level of Qi Refinement, he did not choose to live as an inner sect disciple with better treatment. Instead, he turned into an unpopular outer sect disciple and returned to this brightly lit mortal world. " Longevity is like floating clouds to me. I cultivate to protect those who can't cultivate, and even more so to protect my loved ones. So please remember, don't provoke me." Li Anran held the most advanced magical equipment in his hand and led a group of disciples to issue a warning to the entire cultivation world.
