《The Torture System》Slave
Advertisement
" Zheng He, I command you to kneel down. From today on you will be my new slave.", said the powerful existence.
" System! Help me! I can't fight back at all. Don't let him capture me!"
System," You think I'm not trying? He's too fu*king powerful. No matter how I hard I try I can't do anything to him. I think he's in Soul Refining Realm. If he really is... No point in trying at all. Each realm is vastly different from the previous one. In Muscle Refining Realm your body is somewhat strengthened. It is after all the first realm of cultivation. (There are 9 stages to each realm btw) The next realm Body Refining Realm greatly increases your body's defense. And the next realm, the Soul Refining Realm lets you awaken your soul. You can use your soul to confuse others in battle and even attack and erase other people's souls. Once someone's soul is erased they will never be able to gain it again. Also after losing your soul, you will suffer great damage to cultivation. And you cultivation will drop very swiftly as well as your aging speed increases. That's why the Soul Refining Stage is so important."
" So you're saying I have 0% of surviving this calamity?"
System," Not exactly. He might not kill you... But one thing is for sure, you are completely under his control. But don't worry. Remember you have Undying Body? No matter what he does, you will slowly reach his realm. And once you do, you'll finally be free."
" What's are the chances that I'll actually be able to beat him one day?"
System," Your chances are quite low, to be honest. To be precise you have 0.001% of surviving this..."

" I don't even have 1% chance... Is there even any point in trying?"
System," It's alright buddy, while you are under his control I'll try my best to upgrade myself to the next level as quick as I can."
" And how will that help me?"
System," Once I reach the next level I will be able to once again teleport you out of this world if necessary."
" I'll trust you on this one. But how long will it take you to get your upgrade?"
System," Well considering that if I go too fast he might notice me... It'll take me about 3 years."
" No... I'll be an old grandpa by then..."
System," You shameless bastard! You're only 18. Plus now that you reached Muscle Refining Realm your age limit has been increased. Since you are in Stage 3, your age limit is 300 years."
" Dam... I didn't know cultivators had such nice privileges. So what's the max age limit I can reach?"
System," Well, I suppose if you reach the peak of cultivation you can live forever?"
" Are you sure? Wouldn't that be too broken? I don't think the heavens would allow that though."
System," Well the heavens allowed me to be created. So there must be a boundary which gives you infinite lifespan."
" Well, now I have another reason to reach the peak of cultivation."
System," What was your first reason anyway?"
" My first reasons was actually 2 different things. The first thing is to make my own harem with infinite women in it. The second one was to dominate the whole universe and make everyone bow down to me."

System," Wow. I should've known that you would ask for a harem. Your such a despicable man. You fu*ked Xia Fang's wife. He's the man who helped you turn from a homeless man into a man with shelter and money. You're the biggest disgrace of mankind."
" Relax buddy. Why you always have to bully me???"
System," That's because you have personality problems."
" Now you're going too far, dude. I know you don't have feelings and all but that doesn't mean you have to be so ruthless..."
System," Whatever. Also, I found another overpowered cultivation art in this planet's core, here check it out."
Judgement Day
Details: Brings forth divine light that burns away all opposing forces. But every time this skill is used, the person will have to face a tribulation personally made for them by the heavens.
" Holy sh*t! That move sounds so strong, but why do I have to face a tribulation? Especially a tribulation that the heavens personally made for me. Isn't that way too cruel?"
System," Well what did ya expect nub? You think the heavens are gonna let you wield such great power in a lower planet like this without any backlash?"
" Lower planet? What's a lower planet?"
System," I don't know either, it just came out of my mouth. But, I will know by the time I am done upgrading. It seems as I get closer to my upgrade, I learn about things that I didn't know about before. It's like I had some of my memories sealed and as I get more powerful I unlock more of my memories."
" That's cool and all... But how about you do something useful like kill this powerful existence?"
System," I can't beat him, even if I tried my hardest. That aside, he's approaching you."
" Who's approaching me?"
" I, your new master is approaching you.", said the powerful existence.
" How did I offend you anyway? I just came to this planet, so there's no way I could've done anything to piss you off."
" You didn't offend me. You just made me curious. You're the first human to come to this planet. That must mean you are very talented. But the question is how talented? I'll give you a great deal. If your talent meets the requirement you can become an official slave of mine but if you fail, I'll just torture with you until you die. Now let's see what kind of talent you have."
" No... If he finds out I have the lowest talent he'll start torturing me. I need to convince him that I'm really talented without letting him check for himself... But how do I do it?"
" Ah... It seems that you have F-Grade talent... But then how did you go from no cultivation to a Muscle Refining Stage 3 in just a few hours? Could it be that you have a special technique? Well, we'll find out sooner or later. Until then I'm going to torture you until I'm fully satisfied

Sturmblitz Kunst: Becoming a Dissident for Martial Arts
"I don't care what you read in some old, dusty tome. You can spend decades chasing an outmoded cultivation method that'll probably lead to a faux-breakthrough trap from the Emperor that turns you into a walking impurity tumor, or you can give me a couple months and I'll teach you how to punch through someone's head." - Zelsys "Sevenfold Storm-conqueror" Newman, Founder of the Newman Family The world at large has just begun its recovery from the nigh-apocalyptic War of Fog. Catastrophic environmental damage and gaping power vacuums stir the cogs of history into motion in the absence of open war, eternally greased by the blood and sweat of ambition. A small duchy in the North of the country now stands at the precipice of upheaval as the burgeoning powers of the new era clash within its borders... Meanwhile, as the survivor of a now-extinct cultivator family struggles for survival in a world that cares not about his social status, the very embodiment of his escapist coping mechanisms forces him to pursue the fantasies of self-determination he had never dared act upon.

His cousin is the only person he can truly trust, but he must take a chance and put his life in the hands of others if he plans to survive. ***This is the first long-length writing I have ever undertaken, and I wish to get some critical feedback. I am not professionally trained as a writer but I have tried my best to teach myself and make the chapters as clean as possible. I believe I have reached a point where my limited skills cannot improve the work or make any more corrections. It is very difficult to show this work, but if I do not, I fear I will never improve and learn. So here it is. To anyone who lends the time to read all of this and any of my chapters. Thank you.

The Book of Hickory
Now why did Hickory go and punch that Angel? Sure it spooked him, popping up right there at lunch, and yet, it wasn't fear that balled his hand into a fist - Cause wouldn't you? Wouldn't anyone - with a sick Ma at home, Da long dead, buried, all them prayers piling up on bruised knees, unanswered? Hickory was angry, all right. He was fierce, now - cause that Angel didn't show up to give no help, that Angel came by asking for it - with all that power just plain to see, the power to fix the world and all that ails it! And now look what poor Hickory has to do - to save the world? Now how is he supposed to do that when its taking near everything he's got - just to keep them chickens safe, Ma fed, and himself out of trouble - All he wanted was maybe just a dance with May, maybe a bit more, to hold her close? That she's sweet, now, a voice like an angel, but now she's over there lookin at him like he's more than a man. And that's not to say Hickory is bad, not all the time, not ever on purpose - just there are things a man has to - That drinking and fighting ain't wrong just as long as the chores are done proper first, that those parts of life that make it worth living ain't no sin, that loving a lady is proper and Hickory just has so much love to give! And May is special, right, sweet and soft, now she's sophisticated. That she wears her passion like a pearl necklace? That certainly Hickory would notice, naturally - that she's already spoken for, perhaps taken? That ever since Hickory came back, that all she can think about is swallowing - those strange feelings, because it wouldn't do, would it? For a Lady? But certainly she can worship him and still be seen with Weston Covanger? Because Weston needs May, that what happens in the Study is only half the battle, the Men's Business, and he's far too proud to settle for half of anything. That if he wants to move up the ranks of his family, to be more than a Covanger, to become the Covanger? He's going to need a woman in the Kitchen as well - he's going to need May. And if that seems a bit old fashioned? A bit too much like the Wild West? Well the West is starting to get wild again now that everyone starts to Drink. A different take on LitRPG where answers aren't given - they must be earned, discovered and fought for, one at a time. An orator style, a long read, filled with magic buildings, crafting, alchemy, but most of all - This is a story about the human spirit. About understanding what defines a person, their morals, their beliefs, and also faith when everything they understand becomes challenged - changed. So do they. People can change. They will. Just not always for the better, not always - sometimes. Sometimes that's enough. Sometimes that's even everything.
