《Old Cultivation Record》Chapter 50 - Fisherman
Advertisement
Taylor fiddles with the webcam to make, checking with the camera app to make sure he got the right angle. Taylor smiles at the camera and moves his face around for different angles while trying to peek at his face from the camera app.
“You know we can see you, right? People have already joined the meeting.” A voice says from the computer speakers.
“Ugh.” Taylor says, feeling a little dumb. He minimizes the app and sees there were people in the meeting. Not everyone was there, but they were slowly trickling in.
“Awesome.” Taylor says with a straight face. “We’ll wait a few minutes to see who else joins then we’ll just start.” He says with a sigh before tapping on the desk as he waits it out.
“Please mute your mic.” Another voice says, sounding a little annoyed.
“Sorry.” Taylor says, a little embarrassed. He puts his mic on mute and continues to wait.
After a few minutes, there were at least a hundred people on the call.
“Okay, that should be good to start this off.” Taylor says with a smile. “So, why would our bitter and glorious opponent be calling us today, you may ask. Simple. I’ve come to extend and invitation.” He says confidently.
A text box pops up in the chat, distracting Taylor from his speech.
Sorry, could we hold on for a moment? I can’t seem to hear. Your mouth’s moving but I can’t hear anything.
Taylor sighs. “Is the IT guy on the call? Can someone help this dude.” He says, a little impatiently.
Hi, could you try restarting your computer? A fresh start might be necessary.
Okay, I’ll be back in a moment.
…
…
Okay, he’s gone. You can continue.
Taylor lets out a bitter smile. “As I was saying, I’m here to extend an invitation. As you know, we’re about to reach the climax for this war, and yes, it seems you guys are about to win, but don’t you guys feel it?” He asks like a slimy businessman.

“Feel what?” Someone asks.
“That you know… It’s been kind of boring.” Taylor says, looking unimpressed. “A tribulation should be more than a little boring, don’t you think? I mean, there’s definitely a few people who have broken through to the seventh stage from the pressure, but no one’s made the leap to the eighth stage yet. The Blood Moon’s about to fade and no one has achieved what this tribulation was for in the first place!” He says, sounding a little preachy, like he was either about to scam you or sell you something. Or convert you…
Taylor was greeted with silence.
“Anyways, that’s why I’m here. If you feel you haven’t achieved your best in this tribulation, it isn’t too late. The last bit of the war has yet to be fought, and if you switch sides today, it could be the push you need to break through to the next stage. The final battle is coming; why don’t we make it a banger?” Taylor says with a big smile.
He was once again greeted with silence.
“Alright, well–” Taylor tries to say but was cut off.
“Hey guys, I was able to connect. I have no idea why it’s working now or what the problem even was. Can you guys hear me alright?” A voice says, sounding satisfied.
“Okay, well, I’ve extended my invitation. There’s no need to respond here. We wouldn’t want the others to hear, right? I’ll talk to you guys later.” Taylor says with a chuckle, ignoring the other dude. He exits the meeting and smiles. Now to wait… He thinks, like an experienced fisherman.

Celestial Teahouse System [Slice Of Life LitRPG]
“I guess this is the end of my lifespan? How pathetic.” An infamous Immortal Emperor from Black Heaven Realm was at the end of his lifespan as he shut his old and wrinkled eyelids, awaiting his impending death with a hint of regret. However, when he was on his last breath– the serenity was disrupted by a simple-looking pebble that started glowing intensely out of nowhere as it entered his dantian and he lost consciousness. After what seemed like forever, he finally woke up and to his amazement– he discovered that his body had recovered to the state of his once youthful self with his cultivation only regressing by a little, while ending up in a foreign world filled with modern technology– Earth. He realized that a mysterious robotic voice had suddenly established its presence in his mind unknowingly, issuing him missions and rewards that would help and guide him in a certain direction. Enjoying his new life with a carefree attitude in a new world, running a teahouse with the help of the Celestial Teahouse System– Li Qu will slowly unravel the mysteries behind the pebble and the reason for his transmigration. Was he the only one to do so? Or was there a deeper meaning behind all of this? Will be releasing chapters daily until it gets knocked off the Rising Star list. From then on, it'll be Monday - Friday. Important Note: It's written in a style of a 'Chinese-translated-to-English' type of story. I get the confusion in the earlier chapters, however– NO harem. It's mostly a turn-off-your-brain chill type of story. Author's Note: As this is the first story that I've ever written, there will be occasional errors and as such, please forgive me in advance.

Dragon Travels
Dragons. Mythical creatures that inspire awe and wonder in cultures all across the world. Wouldn't it be amazing to befriend such majestic beasts and go on an adventure with them? To be a dragon rider and live through a tale of epic proportions? Ryder, who's so obsessed with the idea that he nicknamed himself as such, certainly thinks so. Sadly, he lived in a world where such creatures only exist in fiction, and one where none of his peers or family shared the same passionate interest in dragons like him. Every night, he would fantasize what it would be like to live in a world where they do exist, and one day, his fantasy became reality. Upon landing in a new world, he found himself in the company of cheery and naïve plant dragon who was just as excited as him to be the companion of a dragon rider. After that, they encountered a worldly earth dragon, who followed them under the guise of guiding them while hiding her own dark secrets. Lastly, regarded by many as The Terror of The East, a dragon so powerful and terrifying that it's known as a demigod, lowered his pride in order to escape his thousand-year prison and joined Ryder's merry band. It isn't all fun and games as the Goddess who brought the teenager here has sent him on a mission - to rid the evil forces that had risen in the world and threaten the balance of the realm. Together with his three dragon companions, Ryder traveled across different lands as he found himself involved in the matters of both tragic and entertainingly eccentric individuals. So, if you like How to Train Your Dragon or just dragons in general, isekai adventure stories, and/or a found family-esque story with witty banters and interesting characters, then this is what you're looking for! Note: This is an anthology series, therefore the arcs are not presented in a linear fashion. There will be recurring characters and arcs that continues story threads from previous "chapters", but, for the most part, each arc standalone as a complete story, so you can pick and choose what you want to read. If you watched Star Wars: The Clone Wars cartoon series before, it's basically like that.I'm still relatively new in writing, so I would appreciate it if you'll be kind enough to provide feedback!
