Chapter 1631: Old Friend
The stocky old man started to gather information in Gu King City at once.
In no time, he had obtained reliable information.
“A hundred and fifty years ago, there was indeed a person known as Gu Jian who had cleared the sixth level of the Star Moon Tower. He was a Mixed Bloodline between human beings and Ancient Gods.”
“Moreover, when he registered for the Ancient God Palace’s assessment, he indeed said that he was under King Gu Tong!”
The stocky old man and the Five-star Ancient God met up and their expressions were extremely grave.
“There are two possibilities. Firstly, he is indeed the clansman of our king. Even if he is not, he is definitely related to the lineage of our king.”
“Secondly, he heard the name of our king by coincidence. Thus, he blurted it out. However, it is purely for the purpose of the Ancient God Palace’s assessment!”
“No matter which possibility is correct, since it is related to our king, I have to think of a way to meet him.”
The stocky old man clenched both his fists tightly and he had made up his mind. With that, he headed to the Ancient God Palace immediately.
Atop a martial arts training ground in the Ancient God Palace.
Two giant Ancient Gods were having an intense battle.
The bodies of the two Ancient Gods were over a hundred feet tall. One of them was glowing with golden light and he had already revealed three heads and six arms at that very moment.
As for the other Ancient God, his whole body was covered with a dark golden light. Similarly, he had three heads and six arms. Moreover, one of his six arms was holding a longsword tightly.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The two Ancient Gods were having a close-quarters battle. As they clashed again and again, strong Ancient God Power was released madly.
However, at that very moment, the body of the dark golden Ancient God shook. Although he had originally had three heads and six arms, he underwent a transformation to become four heads and eight arms instantly.
With an additional head and two more arms, he could unleash more kinds of attack.
The Gold-armored Ancient God, who still had three heads and six arms, could no longer block the attacks and he was defeated quickly.

When everything had calmed down, the two Ancient Gods changed back to their human forms.
“Gu Jian, your speed of improvement is too frightening. You are a Five-star Ancient God. Moreover, you are actually able to unleash four heads and eight arms even though you have only grasped this Unique Skill for a short amount of time. Although I obtained this Unique Skill more than five hundred years ago, up until now, I have only been able to unleash three heads and six arms. In addition, I am also a Six-star Ancient God,” the defeated Ancient God forced a smile.
After hearing what was said, Jian Wushuang grinned.
He was a Royal Ancient God. In terms of Bloodline, he had a huge advantage. In addition, he was extremely talented and his rate of growth was fast as well.
In just a short hundred and twenty years’ time, he had used the Four Unique Skills until he was very familiar with it. Take the Secret Skill”Nine Heads Eighteen Arms”as an example. At that very moment, he could use Four Heads Eight Arms proficiently. In addition, he was able to use the different kinds of attack beautifully.
Just then, a figure came over from afar.
“Lord Gu Jian.”
The person who came was a top Five-star Ancient God. Logically was at the same level as Jian Wushuang. However, at that very moment, he addressed Jian Wushuang respectfully as Lord.
“Do you have anything for me?” Jian Wushuang looked at him.
“Someone has come to the palace and he is currently outside. In addition, he claims that he is a clansman of King Gu Tong’s lineage and he wishes to see you,” the Ancient God said respectfully.
“Oh?” Jian Wushuang’s expression changed at once.
During the period of time where he was in the Ancient God Palace, he had asked some Ancient Gods about King Gu Tong’s lineage as well.
The answer he had gotten was that there was indeed a King Gu Tong in the Gu King City in the past. However, at that moment, he was no longer in the Gu King City and it also seemed that he had been gone since a very long time ago.
Thus, Jian Wushuang thought that perhaps King Gu Tong had not returned yet.
However, at that moment…

“I will go and take a look.”
Jian Wushuang walked toward the outside of the palace at once.
After arriving outside the palace, he saw the stocky old man who was waiting quietly at one side straight away.
“Elder Yi?” Jian Wushuang’s eyes brightened up immediately.
“You are…” Elder Yi also looked toward Jian Wushuang. At the start, he revealed a surprised expression. However, he opened his eyes wide after that. “You are Jian Wushuang? That little kid from back then who awakened a portion of the Royal Bloodline?”
“Haha. Elder Yi, long time no see,” Jian Wushuang laughed and walked over.
Elder Yi… He was the first Three-star Ancient God who Jian Wushuang had seen!
Back then in the Firmament Territory of the Green Fire World, during the hundred years’ time where he had lived with the Ancient God Clan within the Eternal Zone, the strongest Ancient God who he saw was Elder Yi. Hence, he had a strong impression of Elder Yi.
It should be known that to Jian Wushuang back then, a Three-star Ancient God was a super existence.
At that moment, Jian Wushuang realized that Elder Yi had become a Five-star Ancient God. Moreover, he was a top Five-star Ancient God and they were similar in terms of realm.
“Jian Wushuang, it’s really you?” Elder Yi still found it a bit unbelievable.
“Of course it’s me. Let’s go somewhere else and have a nice chat,” Jian Wushuang laughed.
Elder Yi nodded his head. He also knew that they were not at a good place to talk.
In no time, the two of them came to a secret room which was by itself. After Jian Wushuang laid a seal, the two of them started to have a conversation.
“Jian Wushuang, back then, you left so suddenly. You only left behind some words saying that you would return within thousands of years. However, tens of thousands of years have passed already,” Elder Yi wore a smile.
“I had no choice,” Jian Wushuang forced a smile, “Elder Yi, to tell you the truth, I do not just possess the Ancient God Bloodline. I am also a human cultivator. Previously, I had never come into contact with the Ancient God Clan. However, after I awakened the Ancient God Bloodline, I naturally needed to leave. Originally, I wanted to wait until I got stronger before returning to the Eternal Zone to help all of you open up a Sanctuary. However, who would expect that when I returned, the Eternal Zone would have already disappeared?”
“Is that so?” Elder Yi nodded his head as he could understand as well.
“Oh right. Elder Yi, the reason why the Eternal Zone disappeared was because of the return of your king, right?” Jian Wushuang asked. Of course, he still asked even though he knew the answer.
He had already known that the Eternal Zone was taken away by King Gu Tong.
“That’s right. Not long after you left, the king returned. He brought us along and returned to the Ancient God Sanctuary. Now, the clansmen of our king’s lineage have formed a tribe outside the Gu King City,” Elder Yi said.
“A tribe?” Jian Wushuang frowned, “Why didn’t you enter Gu King City?”
According to what he knew, King Gu Tong was a top Seven-star Royal Ancient God. If he were in his peak, he would definitely not be weaker than King Gu Yi and he might even be stronger. Moreover, he was a Royal Ancient God with the surname Gu. Hence, he could totally bring the clansmen under him into Gu King City and occupy a piece of land.
“Our king experienced a great change and his abilities had deteriorated greatly. Up until now, he had still not recovered fully. Moreover, he seemed to have some disputes with the current ruler of the Gu King City. As such, we are unable to enter the Gu King City,” Elder Yi said.
“Something like this actually happened?” Jian Wushuang was stunned.
“In actual fact, I came to the Gu King City this time around as I wanted to widen the knowledge of some kids. At the same time, I intended to bring back some items that the tribe needs. However, in the middle of doing so, I heard some people talking about you and I rushed over. Who would have expected that the person who cleared the sixth level of the Star Moon Tower a hundred and fifty years ago was actually you?” Elder Yi gasped.

Dream Dungeon
Welcome to the dream dungeon. Ely suddenly finds himself in a mysterious dungeon accessed only through sleeping. Many people are drawn into this dream world, confused and mystified. Those in this dungeon must kill monsters to survive; maybe even each other. Join Ely as he struggles to survive a ruthless environment. What replaces his rest is untold trauma. What seems like an innocent game trope turns into a nightmare. This is a story of tragedy and the path to ultimate power. All in the hopes of an uncertain survival. _________ This fiction has NOT been abandoned. I made a haughty promise earlier to not worry because I'll continue this series, and with things lately, I've only proved myself a liar. Further promises dwindled, and I've lost trust. So many things have been going on recently that I've been booked. I will refrain from making any future guarantees or promises as my busy schedule will stay with me for a long long while. Time for me to actually spend on writing and revising won't appear until at the least November 19. I won't say expect that's when I'll restart, but you can expect expecting it to maybe happen. That's really shallow. But with everything going on, I've let my small reading base down. I apologize. I still stick by my statement though that I won't abandon this project. I plan to stick it to the end, no matter the delay. Most importantly, thank you everyone; readers who both like and dislike my work. I appreciate your time spent on my dumb imagination. Stay toasty my readers in this winter season. Cheers. UPDATE: We're back on track. Thank you for your patience. Any future readers, heyo! Glad you're here. UPDATE 2: So far it's been 21 days since I last uploaded a chapter. The best thing done for any fiction, no matter how good it is, is that it continues, and I have a bad history with that. 1 fiction on hiatus and already more delays with less than 20 chapters in this fiction. I've been very preoccupied with adding more things to do in my life rather than actually committing to any particular thing. That applies primarily to this. I cannot abandon this, as busy as my future looks and will look as I get busier and busier. Someday, I hope, I will be able to sit down and just write. just. write. But for now, I ask for patience. I suppose I'm glad this fiction hasn't picked up so that I don't disappoint too many people if any really. But I need to commit and it's going to happen sometime and sometime soon. No more flowery words. I'll see you later. UPDATE 3: It's very evident I won't be able to pick up this story for a while. With AP Testing, competitions, and other things I am busier than ever. But I must complete this fiction. I have too. Until next time. UPDATE 4: It is now the summer. I owe everyone an apology. Chances are, nobody's around to see this, and that is okay. I only blame myself for this sort of brokenness of a fiction, not that it is actually that bad but I am just exaggerating it for dramatic effect.But what's not exaggerated is the severity of my broken promise. I apologize for my naive claims about finishing a novel that I couldn't finish and that I didn't have the discipline to finish. Nor the skills, really, I was and am still an immature writer.What is to place now? I want to make it clear I understand this is my fault. I will man up to this. And I will accept any criticism. I understand I messed up. Reading Stephen King's On Writing made it clear to me that I need to do two things:Read lots.And write lots.I have done neither. If I don't have the time to read often, how do I expect to write? I need to become more experienced. I need to become a serious writer.So if I want to dream of continuing, I need to at least fulfill both requirements. I enjoy writing. I haven't written seriously outside of school in a while. I planned to write this summer and finish this. I made a lot of promises that I didn't keep.So there's that. I won't enact any self-pity, or be foolishly obsessed. What I did was wrong, and I must deal with it. I let down readers. And I apologize.I hope I can find forgiveness. This is a writer's sin.I won't promise I'll finish this. I intend to finish this, at some point, because writing is fun and I want to write. But how things are don't reflect that. Maybe I'll finish this at some point. Maybe I won't. I won't be naive to make that promise.I thank everyone who has read this if this is the end. If not, and hopefully not, I thank everyone who is to read future chapters. I thank everyone who allowed me to live in the miniscule little dream of mine as I passed my days. I thank everyone who cares enough to read this. Until next time, peace everyone. Thank you. You are all great readers and great people. I wish everyone the best in whatever reading/writing endeavors follow you henceforth.

The Legend of Fanaura: Cursed
'Hey, need some help there?' An unfamiliar voice echoed through her mind, and she startled, losing her grip on the red phial. It rolled through the grass, away from her. "Oh shoot!" she yelped, and her focus diverted from her opponent for a split second, but it was enough to prove fatal. The beast took advantage of her distraction and lunged towards her. She tried to back away, but in her haste, she stumbled and fell. She looked at the beast, inches away from her, and shut her eyes in fear. She raised her arms to cover her head, even if she knew it was futile. Yet seconds passed, and no pain came. Then she heard the beast let out a pained yelp. She opened her eyes to the familiar sounds of battle before her. A tall man stood before her, locked in battle with the beast. He wielded a sword as long as his height, yet it didn't seem to hinder him in the slightest. She watched in awe as he swung the obviously heavy sword around as if it were light as a feather. His movements were swift and precise, and it didn't take long before the beast fell to the ground, motionless. “You alright there, miss?” The man sheathed his sword across his back, before turning to her. Her eyes widened when she heard his voice. It was the same voice who had that had spoken into her mind and the cause of her almost-fatal distraction.

Patchwork System
Notification (cannot be ignored): For being the first being to kill another of its own species after Sublimation, Lyam Aldren is awarded the Title of Cain’s Successor. Let all fear the Kinslayer!!! Lyam Aldren, killer for hire, was just going about his business when he suddenly received a notification from something called the System. Apparently, the entirety of Earth, its denizens and its matter were transported into the world of the System, planted in 'patches' all throughout the infinite world. The world of the Patchwork System is one of challenges, where life is cheap, power is king, and Classes and levels are a thing. In a brutal world, there is perhaps room for a killer with bloodstained hands to find his own way, free of his past. However, his Title and his inherent nature plague him, his fragmented personality laid bare to those with the eyes to see, and if he doesn't become powerful enough to defeat or escape those who would use or destroy him, he will quickly be devoured by the merciless world created by the System. Compared to my previous work, this is a more 'classic' litrpg setup, with clear (if somewhat complex) progression through levels and skill gains, with a 'system apocalypse' setup. Unlike most system apocalypse story protagonists, Lyam is neither a leader nor is he particularly interested in saving his fellow Earthlings. This is a story of a man who is both endangered and set free by the destruction of his old world, as he finds both power, new discoveries, and adventure in a place where his past matters not at all and power is the only language most speak. Later in the story, there will be harem elements, but the first volume is dedicated to Lyam's first months in the System. For those who are more interested in the Heirs of the Hooded King, I am putting it on hiatus as I rework the setting and future story developments a bit.
