(Jun Pov)
It has been about a year since I been in Glory City. A day after I arrive, I manga to reach the peak of Earthen Fate Realm or as many people knows it, Legend rank. My current status is
[Name: Long Jun
Race: Human
Sex: Male
Age: 4
Rank: Demigod
Soul Realm: Cyan
Soul Attribute: Sovereign
Soul Form: Drake
Cultivation Technique - Heavenly Demon's Authority
Demon Spirit: Demon of Sins
Skills: Basic Weapon Mastery, Basic Unarmed Combat Mastery, Intermediate Inscription Mastery, Master Alchemy]
[Flaws 1…]
As you can guess, after I reach demigod I focus on Alchemy. I thought that with the Library, it'll be easy to master everything easily but it's harder than I thought. I can learn the Basics after just reading the book once. For intermediate, I need to at least practice it to gain mastery over it. For advance, I need to understand what I'm studying really means to master it. As for Mastered… let's just say that without the Demon of Sins Genius ability, it'll have taken me at least 10 years to master it.
I don't even want to know how long it's going to take to master weapons. I mean if it's just a single weapon, I could probably master it in less than a year but this book is for all weapons. It includes how to use everyday items as weapons too… Look at me complaining about it taking too long to master something. It will probably take a genius with the best resource and best teacher hundreds of years to master a single trade.
On another note, I finally got my first glimpse into the Laws of this world. That's why I'm studying inscriptions now. Nie Li said that the laws are made of flowing inscription patterns or some BS like that. So now I'm studying them so I can learn Laws quicker.
It seems to be working too as right after I master Intermediate inscription, I finally comprehend the Law I been sensing. That Law is the Law of Primordial Chaos… Yeah, I have no idea how I come to know of that law either. My best guess is it's due to me mastering Alchemy.

The essence of Alchemy is to create. Whether it's medicine, poison, or even turning lead into gold. I know how to turn lead into GOLD!... Too bad it cost more to turn lead into gold than what the gold is actually worth.
The Law of Primordial Chaos just takes it one step further, from turning something into another thing to turning energy into anything. Too bad I just started to comprehend it. I'm still a long way from mastering it. I have a feeling that I need to master almost every other Law in order to truly master the Law of Primordial Chaos.
I can't use it to do much either as it cost a lot of energy to make even the simplest of thing. You can think of it this way, if splitting an atom releases a massive amount of energy, then you need the same amount to create an atom. I can only wait until I understand it more and reach a higher level of cultivation to use it at its full potential. Right now I can at most use it to help with Alchemy and Inscription.
Hmm… does that mean Creation is one step ahead of Primordial Chaos? Creating something from nothing… well, not like it matters now. It'll be a long time until I reach the level where I can even understand it.
It's because of the Law of Primordial Chaos that I have been able to reach Demigod. Demigod is just a peak Legend ranker that comprehends a law after all. As for going above that, I can but it'll mess with the seal that has been put on this Little World so I didn't. I'll wait until after I to head to the Draconic Ruins Realm to break through to Heavenly Fate Realm.
As for what's I'm currently doing, right now I'm in the Library waiting for a book to finish compiling. The book is a book on disguised techniques. I'll need it for my plans to work.
A few days ago, news spread that the City's Lord wife has fallen ill. Many famous doctors of Glory City tried to find out what is wrong but none of them succeed. My plan is to use the disguise technique, make me look like an old expert and cure the City Lord wife.

After doing so, I'll make up a story about how I'm from outside Glory City and is looking for a place to settle down. I'm sure the City Lord will welcome me into the city with open arms. I don't think he's stupid enough to send away a powerhouse that can help protect the city. Not to mention the fact that I'm going to save his wife.
After doing so, I'll pretend to look around the city. Then randomly encounter a kid that has potential, that kid being me, and accept me as a student. With this strategy, people won't question me about my skill because they'll think that I'm being taught by my 'Master.'
For that to happen, I need to be at two places at the same time… how am I… Got it. Clones. "Compiles all book related to clones." In a flash of light, thousands of books float down into another book in front of me.
A while back I discovered that I don't need to compile basic, intermediate, etc books. When I compile the books into one, it'll have all those sections by itself so now I only need to compile one book.
"Oh look, the disguise technique is done." I pick up the book and read the basic section. The basic section is easy to understand. It's easy not because I'm a genius but because the book sort of guide you toward the correct path without any flaws. That makes it so you don't have to figure out how things work making learning it super easy.
After understanding the basic section, I'm able to use makeup or something similar to change my appearance but that's about it. It'll fool regular people and some cultivator but not everyone else.
The next section, the intermediate section has techniques that deal with illusion. Unlike regular illusion where you try to trap other people, the disguise illusion has you cover yourself with a layer of soul force and change it to the appearance you want. Sort of like Genjutsu compares to henge in the Narutoverse, only the disguise illusion is more similar to Naruto own henge where it's hard to tell if it's real or fake and it feels normal to the touch.
The problem with it is that you'll be using soul force so other people will be able to easily find out what level you are. Of course, that problem doesn't apply to me. I have perfect control of my soul force after all, my soul force won't leak out for others to feel.
The advance section deals with shapeshifting and copying the unique feel that other soul forces have. That means if I transform into someone, even my soul force will be similar to them. If people don't personally know the person I transformed into, then they'll easily be trick.
As for the Master section, I don't understand any of it. Like that too when I was practicing Alchemy, you'll need to master the basic, intermediate, and advance section to even get a clue of what the master section is talking about.
Not that it matters for now, I only need to master the intermediate section. I have a feeling that even Nie Li won't be able to see through it after coming back in time. After mastering the advanced section, I believe that even the Sage-Emperor will be fool by it.
After reading and mastering the basics, I start to follow the direction of the intermediate level. With my perfect control over my soul force, I was able to easily get it down. After a few hours of testing a few things, I get the feeling that I already master it.
As for the advanced section, that'll take me about a month to master and the rest of the year for the master section. It's only this fast because I have my demon spirit's ability. Without it, it'll take me a week or so to master the intermediate, a year to master the advance and 9-10 years for the master.
"I have to name this disguise technique… well, let's just call it Disguise Technique." After I said that, the front of the book change and the title Disguise Technique appear on it.
"Now then, let check out the clone technique…"

Fleabag
In the deepest reaches of the Bone Pits, a canine seemingly like any other woke up in the ruined remains of a wooden box.With knowledge it shouldn't have, fleeting memories it couldn't reach, and the icy grasp of death crawling up its spine with every labored breath, it simply wished to live another day. Yet, in the bowels of a city built on metal corpses, nothing was ever simple. Of course, nobody said change would be simple, nor bloodless.And in the dark corners no one sees, in the shifting clouds of smog that none dare venture through, in the deepest reaches of the Dungeon that none but the mentally deranged dare challenge, the last wolf rakes its claws through steel and howls to a distant sky. Are you tired of fun monster evolution stories where the monster becomes increasingly less monstrous, and eventually they're just a more spicy version of a human and it stops being a monster evolution story?Well, i am.So- insert thanos meme where he says "fine, i'll do it myself"[Participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge.](The art in the book cover was made by an extremely talented artist named Chloe Bt, and she allowed me permission to use one of her renders as the main ingredient to my book cover, because she's fucking awesome.)

8 145The Tales of YAP: The Superhero Series
“Listen well, and listen kindly, for my story is a story of contradictions; of the dead becoming alive and the weak becoming strong. Likewise, those nominated as the strong are reduced into the weakest of foes. And lovers, those sweet companions, are nothing but crazed psychopaths. This is the type of story I will tell. The story only I can speak of for it is solely mine. And now, as I recount it to you, thence forth it shall belong to all that hear of it. Listen well, then, for I shall begin.”Sooo, that’s it. The world isn’t what it is. The dead are alive. The weak become strong. And bla bla bla. The normal days of a superhero-in-training, I suppose. I hope you have a bit of patience because my story is a long one, and it starts out in the same old, boring world.My name is Yassi Anne P. Sorento, and this is my story before I became the superhero I am today. (First posted on Webnovel with the same title and under the name, Hua_Li_An.)
