Help me find errors/mistakes, thanks!
Five Dragon Emperor is a story that will be written like Xianxia novels, Xianxia novels are usually long and are about the MC training to the peak of cultivation, or very close to it.
Most Xianxia novels are 2000+ words per chapter, however i've seen a few novels containing words less than that, and this novel will be one of them.
Soaring Dragon Continent, Outside Emperor’s Palace
Outside the Emperor's Palace, it is highly usually guarded day and night however this night there are no guards in sight. Highly suspicious most people would assume, but considering the emperor’s strength you would have to be crazy to even step foot in the Palace.
At this moment, outside the palace, a black haired red eyed man was staring at the shadow of a man. There was sweat dripping all across his body, and he was breathing heavily. From afar if one were to look they would suspect that this person is an intruder who was being chased after from the palace. This was not the case, he is the emperor himself.
As his chest heaved you could tell that he was highly exhausted, exhausted enough that he could collapse at any moment. If it wasn’t for his will of not wanting to die then you can expect that he would fall. However, his eyes were fierce and cold, you can tell that he was looking to kill someone tonight.
Around him was a crowd of twenty-seven individuals who encircled him blocking all his escape routes.
“Chang Mu, give up! Hand over the five Dragon Pendant and you can return back to the palace!”
“Chang Chi, never would... I have thought you...would be the one to try... and kill me!”
“Brother, if one wants to be strong he needs to beat the stronger foe. If only you weren’t the one who picked up that heavenly treasure two weeks ago.”

Chang Mu clenched his hands tight, he knew there was no escape for him. The people who surrounded him were all at the top of their cultivation. If one were to pass by, they would feel terrified by the aura’s these people were emitting.
Paragons of Truth, the highest one could cultivate to before becoming a true immortal. On the Soaring Dragon Continent, there are at least five hundred who have cultivated to that realm. Those who cultivated to the Immortal realm was only three, and Chang Mu was one of them.
“Ha, you want this five Dragon Pendant, not in this lifetime! You dare use Six Demon Sealing poison on me to block my meridians! You couldn’t even face me as a man!”
Indeed, Chang Chi did poison his own brother blocking his meridians making him a mortal. Chang Chi himself was only at the Paragon of Truth level while his brother was an Immortal, there was no way he could kill him no matter how hard he tried. Poisoning him was the only way, they say take a dragon's powers away and he's nothing more than a giant lizard.
“Fine! I gave you a chance to give me the pendant but you foolishly choose to die.”
“Die? No, not by your hands.”
Chang Mu grabbed the pendant over his neck and tightened his grip over it. The five Dragon Pendant was truly a sight to behold, five Dragon heads, each one a different color circling around a jade gem that held power beyond anything in the world.
The surrounding people gasped at the sight of the five Dragon Pendant, drool slid down from their mouths. Even if they didn’t know what it was used for, it was something worth looking at. Chang Mu slowly raised his head, and he glared at them with arrogance. “You Chang Chi, my own brother wants to kill me to take away a treasure given to me by the heavens! I say NO!”

Chang Mu tightened his grip on the pendant using all his strength to crush the pendant. The once beautiful treasure that caused all this was now turned into silvery ash that floated away, leaving only the jade gem.
“Now lets see you try to take the pendant!”
Chang Chi’s eyes turned bloodshot red and cold. After finding out the effects of the five Dragon Pendant he urgently devised this plan to take it from his brother. If his brother wouldn’t hand it over, then he would kill him for it. One thing he didn’t know was the five Dragon Pendant was fragile, and it could break with the slightest pressure.
“CHANG Mu! You will not leave here alive!”
Chang Mu knew that he wouldn’t leave here alive, and if he did he would still die. He who reached the peak of cultivation turning into an Immortal, having an endless lifespan and became the emperor who united the seven kingdoms. He drank a poison that turned him back into a mortal, there was no use in him living again, even if he did get out of this situation.
The jade gem that he held in his hand lost all of its power, now it was just a gem that could only be sold. The real power was held in the five Dragon heads that surrounded the gem. Now that the five heads were gone, all the power they had disappeared also.
Grapping a dagger out of his chest pocket Chang Mu clutched it tight. “You will not escape from this unharmed Chang Chi. Once everyone knows that the emperor has been murdered by his own brother, you will be beheaded and your family will burn.”
“No one will ever find out!”
“Fine! Say no one will find out, but remember this well I will have my revenge. Maybe not now, not in ten years or even in this lifetime, but I will have my revenge!”
Chang Mu pierced his own heart with the dagger, but in his eyes was a resolution to make it out alive.
Chang Mu knew that when he died his soul would pass on into the next world, but he couldn’t accept that. Reincarnate into a world he didn’t know anything about, no! ‘I Must have REVENGE for all those who wronged me!’
The souls around his were being pushed by an unknown force, but Chang Mu didn’t follow that force. He made his soul go against the current and made his own path. ‘Just you wait Chang Chi!’
Pew! His soul shot off in the distance, towards an unknown land to him. Chang Mu might be the first person in history to go against the heavens and have his soul reincarnated into the same world.

My Special Ability is Perfect Replication
After transmigrating to this world where spiritual energy is revived, I realized that it’s a world rampaged by Direbeasts. But what is most exciting is that humans with special abilities do exist! It’s awesome to witness control of thunder and fire, titan’s transformation, limb regeneration, teleportation, telepathy, precognition and many more. And guess what? I have them all.

This story is on hiatus/abandonned. People die, then that's all... or at least, it should be that way. There may be anomalies, yes – the occasional hero of old getting reincarnated for some obscure purpose – but who knows what the gods are thinking. If they are thinking at all. If there are gods, to begin with. What would explain such a mistake, then? The hero mark wasn't given to our reborn champion, but to his perfectly normal sister. A prank from these mindless gods, perhaps. Luckily for him, he was done with this hero business and had other plans for his new life, so it's all good... Here is the story of one who isn't meant to stand among heroes, kings and emperors anymore, yet will find himself holding power over them.
8 156Thief of Time
[Participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] Book 1: The Legend of Tot Synopsis: Claud Primus, a self-declared master thief, has a simple goal. To live forever. It's a rather easy task, for miraculous objects called lifestones are able to extend one's lifespan. These lifestones are best found in the treasuries of nobles, lovely resorts that Claud pays a visit to every so often. Unfortunately, one of those nightly visits go awry, and Claud is forced to escape with just a single lifestone and a box in hand. Normally, that's when things die down. The guards yawn, the gates close, and the night continues. But this time, the night isn't that forgiving. A dozen schemes result in the murder of someone important, and with a convenient scapegoat — Claud — at hand, it doesn't take long for him to be framed as a heinous criminal, wanted for the indirect murder of someone high up...and it just gets worse from there. Book 2: The Moon Lords' Rise Synopsis: As ordered chaos sweeps across Licencia, Claud leaves for Julan Barony, intent on making some profits there. Accompanied by the erstwhile heiress of Julan, a fellow member of the Moon Lords, the two plot against the barony's wealth...as well as a promise to bring about its downfall. Meanwhile, back home, the Moon Lords have busied themselves with digesting their gains. Eyes, however, are beginning to turn to this proverbial fish in a small pond. The fishermen are coming. When they cast their hook, what will Dia and the others do? Book 3: Murders under the Moons Synopsis: In the sleepy town of Nachtville, where Claud and Lily are forced to stop at, a set of nasty murders occurs. Victims scream out in fright, before a spear falls from the sky to end their suffering. Cowed and cautious, the master thief and his partner slink in the shadows, their objective that of home... A new task, however, has fallen on Dia. With a trusty helper at her side, she has to set off towards Nachtville itself, to solve the mystery Claud had abandoned. Faced with an enemy whose sole skillset is geared towards killing, how will they succeed? And what dark secrets will they find? Book 4: In the Dark of the Moons Synopsis: The year has ended. The four months of the full moons will soon be followed by two months of the new moons. Duke Istrel's ascension is around the corner. Amidst this political upheaval, Count Nightfall, Licencia's strongest defender, has been called away. The Moon Lords' largest task yet — to protect Licencia in the absence of its ruler — has begun. And yet, trouble is unrelenting. A distinguished personage, one that Claud fears, has been found dead in the county, his brains dug out and his body disemboweled. The inquisitors of the White Church have been dispatched to investigate and apprehend the murderer...as well as the person behind this puppet. Tormented by a call to fight, Claud directs his eyes out of the city, looking for the puppetmaster. Skulking in the shadows, the master thief will soon confront his greatest foe yet. A foe just like him. Book 5: Moonlit Tides and Darkened Seas Synopsis: A new era has begun. For the privileged, the sands of time dribble away for every passing moment, counting down to the arrival of a entity of mythical proportions. The night now harbours shadows and fog, and operatives of the Moons and the Dark clash in shadow. Claud, as usual, is investigating a spate of nasty disappearances in the city, but little does he know what these disappearances truly mean. And yet, a tide is coming. When it finally breaks, what will he do? Book 6: Secrets in Shadow Synopsis: The person behind a strike that would enter the annals of history flees his home, bringing with him the person closest to his heart into a new land and into a new world. Having left Istrel for the first time in his life, the two of them attempt to settle down in foreign lands, only to be caught in the middle of hostilities between two mighty powers grappling for dominion. Yet, none of that has anything to do with him. Following his desires, Claud eventually makes his way to the fabled Celestia Ruins, a fragment of another world. Bearing witness to truths he cannot yet comprehend, he returns from his exploration, a small break away from the machinations of destiny. One thing, however, is for certain. Destiny will not wait for him. Book 7: Reddest Rage Synopsis: Destiny churns on, heedless of mortal machinations, and Claud watches as the battlegrounds between the Moons and the Dark are drawn up. With the forces of the great Dark occupying Lostfon, Claud comes to a startling realisation — that he may have very well be a murderer of heinous proportions. Grappling with that realisation, he struggles to prepare for his Second Tutorial... Back in Istrel, Dia finds herself confronted with a perennial truth. Even in a time of writhing destiny, the machinations between nobles never cease to end — and unfortunately for her, the group once known as the Moon Lords are forced into dealing with a petty squabble between two counts. What they didn't account for, however, was the startling discovery they would soon make... And the shadow of the Red God's Holy Son behind it all. Book 8: Darkness Descends Synopsis: Nightmares haunt the horizon as Claud sinks and awakens from a seeming dream. What was once illusory begins to play out before him, in a way he cannot imagine. Dia, forced to wield arms, begins and ends a battle that opens her eyes to the vast dangers that lurk in this sundered world. Under the banner of humanity and divinity, she beholds the silent, forgotten protectors of Orb...but there is no forgetting the battle between the divinities. The Dark descends, the Moons writhe, and the horns of war blow once more. But this is not their battle. Not yet. Book 9: Moons Muster Synopsis: As more and more events fall into place, Claud finds himself desperate. Not for himself, but for the person who has turned into his world. Armed with the knowledge of a certain future, he approaches the only person that could possibly help him in his time of need, trading information for a promise of help. With that as solace, he returns to the grim task of understanding and seeking, revisiting an ancient, shattered fragment of another world...unleashing changes that he never knew was possible. Back in Istrel, Dia and the others must now navigate around a familiar spirit, who seeks to investigate the death of his master's Bearer. With them as prime suspects, the Seekers of Life must move carefully...but the Coloured Gods are not the only divinities eyeing them closely. The Moons, bristling from repeated defeats, are looking for new recruits, and the Seekers of Life are prime cannon fodder. Above all, destiny marches on, the unfeeling clock a warning to all. The Trial of Aeons will soon arrive. Book 10: Destiny Divine Synopsis: ??? Release frequency: one every few days or something, I guess. (This work is also being serialised on Webnovel under the name Revile as a trial run)
