Heavenly Monarch Chapter 4
Advertisement
Hmm, since it's not that different from a video game, leveling up will be easier. After adjusting my state of mind I decided to look for the steps leading out of the mountain, but before I could continue with my journey I felt the energy inside me surging. Not knowing what if I am going to self-destruct I asked the system for information.
" System what is happening to my body".
*Ding*
" Host is gathering more energy from he's surrounding due to the increase in his cultivation level"
"So the more I level up the more I will experience this"
*Ding*
" The more the host experience a breakthrough the more he will be able to feel the energy flowing around him and with each breakthrough the host also experiences an increase in his strength.
If you say so, then I won't bother myself with it. After understanding the state of my body and know that it will bring me no harm I started searching for the path that will lead me down the mountain and truly my movement became swift the more I walked, and it seems like my senses became sharper to the extent that I could hear the sound of footsteps coming from the mountain, though I could not point out where they are coming from, I knew it from the undead creatures.
With my grip on to my sword tightly, I made my way down the mountain only to come across another beast but the beast this time seems different from the bull I fought, having the body of a human, goat head, and the legs of a horse while holding a shield and a blade.

Nice, time for me to have a little training here in the mountain while finding my way out. Seeing the beast getting prepared to charge I quickly ran towards it to initiate the first strike to gain the upper hand only to see the beast swinging its blade to meet my blade head-on without backing out.
After exchanging three moves with the beast I knew this one is faster and stronger than the previous one and seem to have intelligence in combat, fighting its head-on will not give me the advantage over it unless I keep on attacking it from different angles and if his reaction is slow when defending itself from different angles. Taking a step back to create space between us before rushing to the beast but this time, I turn to its side to deliver a slash, and it connected leaving the beast with a big wound.
It's very slow in defending itself from its side, giving me the advantage. Taking another step forward, I sent out another slash only to later dusk and deliver a slash at its legs before rolling to the side to deliver a stab at its stomach leaving it open with rotten intestines coming out mixed with black blood.
After delivering many attacks to the beast its aura became weaker, and its breathing became intense, and its eyes started glowing red which signifies the activation of its skill. Knowing my attack could no longer cause any damage to the beast, I started running around to create distance between us until it will run on cooldown but dodging its attack was not easy.
After distancing myself from the beast, it keeps on chasing after me while unleashing attack upon attack, and I could barely dodge them all leading to my health running low but at long last its time on being in the rage state was up leaving it vulnerable to all attack, taking my time to attack and create a fatal blow to the beast I slayed it after wearing it down for 5mins.

Hmm, nice move, with this move leaving the mountain will become easy for me. After observing my stats I place my free in dexterity granting me more speed.
After closing my stats and was preparing to continue my journey I suddenly received a notification from the system.
*Ding*
Savage fighter beast core has been obtained
Savage fighter torso has been obtained.
What the hell is wrong with this system, obtaining beast core and torso what am I supposed to do"eat them or what".
*Ding*
"Eating the core and torso of the beast will lead to energy assault within the host body leading to self-destruct and beside it a waste to consume them for they can be used to make equipment or sold out".
After searching for steps leading out of the mountain, I discovered the day is getting dark indicating it almost night. Making haste I made my way down the mountain so far so good I have not come across any undead creatures which is good since I don't want to spend my night here in the mountain.
Unfortunately, my wish never came through for the whole of the mountain became dark, and I started feeling an intense aura coming my way, bracing myself for incoming battle only to lose the will to fight after seeing what is heading my way.

Soul Forging
“At this point, humanity has already lost control over its own destiny.” If even a normal college student like Jayce could say such a thing, then things were obviously pretty bad. In Jayce’s case, by the time he understood this truth, he had already been enslaved by another race and put to work as the subordinate of a noble’s daughter. There, he was given a chance to reflect on a conundrum. Which felt worse? Being summoned to another world as someone else’s gacha prize, or learning that in this world, humans were nothing more than C-Rank trash. Follow one young man’s journey as he struggles from pitiful slavery to reach heights he never could have imagined. Chapters every Wednesday & Saturday.

Jumpspark
Each human contains a spark of divinity. Only a few learn to access it, but for those few a reward awaits them in the afterlife. Meet Karlus, a 26-year old construction manager who managed to access his spark. Join him on a journey of discovery as he explores a new world and new powers and meets new friends and ancient heroes to help him along on his journey. A western-style Xianxia with a few other tropes. *Note: I started this on a whim and updates will be sporadic and slow.

Drug Use (kinda). Gore.

The Vitaean Chronicles - Volume I: The Sanguine Prince
NOTE: Chapters 02 - 19 are currently slated for review and rewrite following the Conclusion of Act I. Please bear this in mind! When tragedy strikes Arcturus Valoura, he is ripped from his carefree existence and thrown into a world of politics and peril, where today's friend is tomorrow's foe. Bereft of the knowledge and skills needed to survive in his new reality, he will need to find his place within a realm that mixes magic and science in impossible ways. He will need to learn the secrets of the mysterious System that allows him to guide his potential for growth even as he struggles to unlock the powers needed to keep himself alive. In the darkest, and most desolate places of an ancient land he will have to find the answers to forbidden questions, and terrible secrets long purged from the histories of mankind. And in so doing, shake the very foundations of reality itself. Release Schedule: Tuesdays (I may post on off-days if I get a lot done). Advanced Chapters available on Patreon starting May 4th 2021. Discord Community: https://discord.gg/3tHKHAx7Ye The Vitaean Chronicles are a debut LitRPG High Fantasy series written with the intent of filling a niche I've yet to see filled anywhere else. This is my first novel of this kind, so please be patient with me. Throughout this story, I will endeavour to create an evolving and expansive narrative anchored around believable characters, compelling plotlines, and a consistent and sensible magic system. The purpose of this work is to create what I believe to be a relatively unique piece of fiction, drawing inspiration from many great stories that have come before from the likes of Tolkien, Jordan, Hertbert, Goodkind, Pratchett, Martin, and several others. My goal is not to create a masterpiece, but simply to create a story that someone can read and re-read with the same joy, same frustration, and same investment each time. This story will contain violence, politics, Shakespearian drama, tongue-in-cheek references, adult content, and well-crafted relationships of both platonic and romantic natures. I will not promise you will like every choice I make. I can only guarantee that I will do my best to create a story I, and you, can be proud of. As I progress, I will have room to incorporate fan-made characters for those interested in making their mark within the tapestry of this tale (with the customary disclaimer that they do so while waiving any rights to future profit, lol). Thank you to Royal Road for giving me the platform to do that, and thank you dear readers past, present, and future for choosing to come on this journey with me. Finally, just to cover myself: This work is Copyrighted to the Author herein known as 'Hannibal Forge', and recreation, distribution, or re-release of any material herein in a commercial or public capacity absent permission from the Author can and will be prosecuted to the full extent of the Law.
