In 2019, a cataclysmic event shatters the fabric of reality, unleashing a new world where the forces of desire shape the very essence of existence.

The old world is dying, and the Eternal Era begins—an age where survival is a battle, and only the strongest can thrive. Amidst the destruction, a desperate quest for salvation unfolds. Every soul, driven by hope and ambition, journeys through the ruins of their past to find a new future. In this perilous new world, what remains of humanity must confront their darkest desires and face the unknown to rebuild—or perish in the attempt. How will Yi Tianxing navigate this dawning era of bloodshed and chaos? [I just translate the story, real author is Drifting Alone] .......................

Pampered by Short-Lived Bigshot

When they first met, Tang Wan sighed, “The fifth young master of the Jiang family is just as the rumors said. He’s celibate, aloof, prideful, and is a man to be revered. Unfortunately, he’s so smart that he no longer has any will to live, which made him sickly, and he’s going to die soon… Later on, the fifth young master brought her into his room. When she came out, everyone stared at her in shock. Why was she crying? …… Later on, it was said that the fifth young master returned after he recovered from his illness, and he brought a girl back. She appeared pure and harmless, but underneath that harmless appearance, she was actually a spitfire that offended quite a number of people. But the fifth young master just said, “I brought her back, so I’ll let her do whatever she wants. If… anything happens, I’ll take responsibility.” His best friend gave him a reminder. “You’re going to be responsible for someone from the Tang family?” “Since she came back with me, she’s mine. She’s just a young girl and is spoilt. I have to take responsibility.” After Tang Wan married into the Jiang family, she only had one mission. She must give birth to his children before he died! Meanwhile, the fifth young master was puzzled. “You’re a gentle and shy girl during the day, so why are you so different during the night?” Tang Wan thought. ‘I have to make every second count. He won’t be able to live long.’ After she gave birth to his son and he became one year old, Tang Wan was prepared to become a widow. However… ‘Why isn’t he dead yet?’ Much later, the fifth master of the Jiang family asked her, “I heard that you’ve been looking for my death every day. Do you want to kill me by sucking me dry?”

For the first time, the Ancient gods appear in the story "The Punishing Fate over Sarnath", where Lovecraft first calls the deities "Ancient Gods" (Eng. Old Gods), and then "Elder Gods" (English Elder Gods). In subsequent works: "The Call of Cthulhu", "The Horror of Dunwich", "The Whisperer in the Dark", "The Ridges of Madness" and "The Shadow over Innsmouth" — Lovecraft uses the name "The Ancients" (Eng. Old Ones) and "Great Old Ones" (Eng. Great Old Ones). In the stories "The Last Experience" and "Buried with the Pharaohs" Lovecraft uses the name "Ancient Gods". In Lovecraft's work, the "Elder Gods" are opposed to both the "Great Ancients" and the "Outer Gods". Smith often referred to Lovecraft's Ancient gods along with his "Outer Gods", ruled by Azathoth, the "blind idiot God" who occupies a position in the center of infinity.

The best cuthulian novel I have read, beats out the actual lovecraft stories imo. Characters are smart and memorable. The world is well crafted and interesting. The horrors are actually scary. The story is good and coherent.

It is a very good story, with a very unsettling and eerie protagonist. If you like stories with elements of HP Lovecraft, you're gonna love it. Irrespective of this, give it a try and see if the Story is your cup of tea.

In the realm of ninja, the legend is born

Xinggong Ling sat on the seat of honor and looked around at all the evil forces 'clones. She crossed her fingers and placed them under her chin. The mirror reflected a cold light as she said solemnly," A while ago, the vault of the Xiao Organization was robbed. Xiao Nan's 600 billion detonation talisman was stolen. The murderer is among us. I hope that person will take the initiative to step forward." Phantom Dance Shi Wupeng shrugged his shoulders," You know me, my main body. I've been staying in Limitless City every day without leaving my house. I didn't even agree when that bastard, Fate, wanted to pull me out to bask in the sun." The Sacred Lord, who was still in his statue form, said helplessly,"Original body, you understand me. You haven't even returned the talisman to me. Do you think I have the ability to cause trouble like this?" Aizen Yuusuke pushed up his glasses and smiled gently." You know me, my main body. I haven't finished creating the Void Ring and the Corpse Soul World. I don't have time to care about other things." Gudazi spread his hands and said innocently," You know me, main body. If it was us, the Chaldeans, who made a move, it would not be just 600 billion. Even that person is mine." ……
