Chapter 1: Escaping the Abyss
There was nothing but darkness. An infinite amount of darkness, so dark, nothing could be seen ahead but a few steps.
It was the eternal abyss of darkness.
In the eternal abyss of darkness, all souls gather to go to their specific afterlife.
There was an almost infinite amount of souls in the abyss. All the souls that still haven’t made it to the end of their march yet.
Each and every one of those souls were in a blank state, with no knowledge of who they were, where they were, why they were here, or even that they were dead.
They were all in rows and columns, moving forward at an even pace. It was like a zombie-soul army.
There was a gigantic cliff 200 km ahead, most of the souls would reach the cliff and fall into its pits.
The pit was bottomless, for it had no end.
Any soul that fell in the pit were the ones that did misdeeds and committed grave sins.
The souls that did not fall, but flew up once they reached the cliff, went to a better place.
The legion of zombie-souls kept on marching. It was either fall or flight.
In the legion zombie-soul army, march one particular strong-willed soul with a unique charisma and glow.
The one particular soul would not let its mind be restrained to a blank state like all the others.
That one soul struggle to get back control of its body. It would not let itself be restrained!!
That particular soul shook its body and face severely and managed to stop itself from taking one more step.
Taking a closer look on that particular soul, it is reveal to be the 24th emperor of the Xinbu Kingdom!!
He looks around himself completely bewildered.

Holding back his entire row of zombie-souls from moving, the 24th emperor, took flight in his soul-form and flew around the abyss.
>
Unable to find any weak area to escape the abyss of darkness, the 24th emperor was left with only one choice.

After doing some fast hand signs and symbols, something started to happen. The emperor’s hands started to glow this bright heavenly light. As soon as the light reached its brightest peak, the souls nearest to the emperor awakened, and started to rush towards the emperor.
They could sense the life and rebirth energy coming from the emperor, and all the souls in the abyss wanted life and rebirth.
Some of the souls wanted to be reborn again, some of them didn’t want to go to their afterlife yet, others have some unfinished business in the real world.
They all rushed towards the emperor.
“Oh no you won’t” yelled the emperor as he raised his hands upward.
-----------
At a big mansion in Ryoukai town, Xinbu Kingdom:
“Ugh, where am I?” thought a 24-year-old man that got up from bed.
A big mirror stood at the right of the man’s bed.
“What? What is this? This isn’t me” said the man out loud.
Moving his hands up and down and observing as the person in the mirror does the same thing at the same time. The man then came to a conclusion.
“My Rebirth & Resurrection spell worked” thought the man, revealing he was the emperor. “But this body…it isn’t my own”
Hope you folks enjoy this, and please continue the support guys!!
P.S. English is my third language and even though majoring in English in College, SORRY FOR THE GRAMMAR MISTAKES. I will try to correct them before i post them, but sometimes i don't catch all of them.
Thank You

I love criticism but I hate people that go and put a 1 star with no reason, but if you put 1 star and give me a good reason then I'll use it to grow as an author! Thanks everyone!

The Successor
The Immortal God Emperor is dead...yet his Successor will one day arise. The worlds had long moved on from the greatest Cultivator of all time. The things that had been achieved and the advances made in the Immortal God Emperor's absence were nothing to turn one's nose up at. And yet, something was always missing. Because Cultivators, no matter the goals they pursue, always bow to the greater power. They seek it, they covet it for themselves, and they serve it with reverence. Shan Kai Lan was born into such a world. Born to two herb farmers whose cultivation did not surpass the Foundation Realm, yet who loved their son more than anything. Kai Lan was a child blessed by the Spiritual Plain, far more gifted and more intelligent than others his age. Yet the more profound his achievements, the greater the likelihood that his happy, peaceful life would be trampled on by those who desired his potential for themselves. The question of Kai Lan's journey becomes not whether he will reach the highest peak of cultivation, but what he will be forced to do to keep his young Clan, and the happiness it provides, at peace. Note to Reader: I am not of an Asian background, but this work is heavily influenced by Eastern stories and concepts. In saying that, it is an INFLUENCE only. Keep in mind that this is a fantasy work, and any butchering of names, concepts or cultural objects/places/subjects are not meant in any way to offend. With that in mind, Happy Reading! - Jelim
