Omniscient P.O.V.

[A/N: Just a heads up: I’m changing my writing style a bit, making it less focused on one character (Usually the MC) and making it a bit broader. I’m not used to that kind of POV, so I may not nail...

(AKJ) Chapter 115 - Third-Grade Purple Lightning Tribulation and being her pillar

Bright Star City, Bright Star Island, Flowing Stars Archipelago, Earth

Demian's P.O.V.

As soon as those words resounded in their ears, a massive change appeared in the atmosphere above the platform, with the fiercest fluctuations coming from right above Bryn’s position. The sky, which was previously azure blue with the massive solar star shining brightly, was swiftly hidden behind a growing mass of grey clouds. At first light grey,...

Written interview with 'the Book Addict 25'

Hello, dear Patrons and (hopefully) future Patrons! I've been in touch with a book reviewer on Instagram and she asked me for a written interview with a 10 questions. It took me a while to answer all of them, but I finally finish answering all of those questions! SO, I wanted to share it with you all on Patreon. Hope you'll enjoy it!

Q1. How did you first discover your passion for writing?

That’s a lon...

Chapter 114 - Tribulation Plateau, Protector General and a huangfu-wearing heroic beauty

Bright Star City, Bright Star Island, Flowing Stars Archipelago, Earth

Demian's P.O.V.

Having said his piece, Sergei controlled the boat to fly toward the Heaven Tree’s crown, which, due to its colossal size, felt deceptively close but was actually a few tens of kilometers away. At least, the part housing the so-called Tribulation Plateau located at the very top of the trunk, which was also slightly visible through the dense foliag...

(AKJ)Chapter 113 - Southern Nexus Plaza and Heavenly Tree, Five Elements Bridges and Yin-Yang Earthen Columns

Bright Star City, Bright Star Island, Flowing Stars Archipelago, Earth

Demian's P.O.V.

The proud expression on the usually stoic face of his teacher brought a smile to Demian’s face before the young man replied. “She’s impressive. She’s called Leaping Yang Serenity?” The question was somewhat rhetorical, considering that those few words were painted very visibly on the hull, but Demian felt compelled to ask the question any...

(AKJ) Chapter 112 - Two Cheongsams, Two Flavors, and Leaping Yang Serenity

Bright Star City, Bright Star Island, Flowing Stars Archipelago, Earth

Demian's P.O.V.

Seeing the two women’s new looks stunned him into speechlessness, his brain having difficulty registering the situation, leaving his body completely frozen for a while. Noticing his reaction, the two, whose seductive smiles were previously mixed with a tinge of nervousness, immediately turned triumphant, with Seraphine turning her head toward Ade...

(AKJ) Chapter 111 - Extreme reactions and Wuxia cosplay?

Bright Star City, Bright Star Island, Flowing Stars Archipelago, Earth

Demian's P.O.V.

As soon as those clothes appeared on his body, even before he asked his question, Seraphine's gaze moved from top to bottom, her reaction surprisingly enthusiastic. “You look so... Dashing! Like a main character in a Cultivation novel!” Indeed, unlike his usual sport attire, his current outfit consisted of a modernized Ming-sty...

(AKJ) Chapter 110 - Bryn's impending Tribulation

Bright Star City, Bright Star Island, Flowing Stars Archipelago, Earth

Demian's P.O.V.

After Demian successfully condensed his peculiar Minor Water Cycle Intent, his self-inflicted pressure lightened considerably, as if some heavy shackles binding him broke, giving rise to an exhilarating feeling of freedom. ‘I even reached the so-called Soul Great River State and Energy Flood State, those two Tier 1 Extreme States in Soul and Ener...

(AKJ) Chapter 109 - Chapter 109 - Minor Water Cycle Intent and Earth-Shattering changes

Bright Star City, Bright Star Island, Flowing Stars Archipelago, Earth

Demian's P.O.V.

The next few days flowed away as if mere illusions, with every member of the Mikhailovs experiencing significant progress. The most impressive was Bryn, who had not only reached the Peak of Tier 1 in every single system with her Vitality, Soul Power, and Inner Energy refined to Flawless Purity, but she had also condensed the First-Grade Golden Jade...

(AKJ)Chapter 108 - Soul-stirring Charm

Bright Star City, Bright Star Island, Flowing Stars Archipelago, Earth

Demian's P.O.V.

Despite having acquired some respectable experience when it came to women’s affectionate gestures due to Seraphine’s usual succubus-like ‘behavior’, he was still stunned by the sudden combo of kissing, ’Darling’ uttered in a sweet voice, and her hungry eyes. ‘Fuck! I really want to take her here and there! And here I thought being unb...

(AKJ)Chapter 107 - A man needs to be assertive when needed

Bright Star City, Bright Star Island, Flowing Stars Archipelago, Earth

Demian's P.O.V.

The question seemed to melt her previous playful mask, leaving only a reassuring smile on her face as she answered, her ‘eyes’ meeting his. “I’m fine, Babe, don’t worry. It’s only because my body had to get used to the improvement that I was out for so long.” Nodding his head, he replied with a few simple words. “That’s good.” W...

(AKJ)Chapter 106 - Synchronous effects

Bright Star City, Bright Star Island, Flowing Stars Archipelago, Earth

Demian's P.O.V.

With some hesitation, he added a question that had been constantly on his mind since he met the older man, especially since he had been taken under his wing. “By the way, Teacher... I never asked you before, but.. I mean, you know what my relationship with the girls is and... I mean, doesn’t it bother you?” Feeling a bit nervous about the oth...

(AKJ)Chapter 105 - Incarnation and message from a familiar stranger

Bright Star City, Bright Star Island, Flowing Stars Archipelago, Earth

Demian's P.O.V.

Not knowing what to expect, his surprise grew as the situation became clearer. As if Time and Space lost any meaning, his consciousness was instantly brought into that strange World, right above a colossal mountain located in the south of what seemed too large to be considered an Island, but too small to be a Continent. Whatever it was, he was brou...

(AKJ)Chapter 104 - The mysterious ring's abnormal reactions

Bright Star City, Bright Star Island, Flowing Stars Archipelago, Earth

Demian's P.O.V.

After the conversation with Sergei and Ling, Demian spent the next few days comprehending both the Tide Intent he planned to condense inside his Lower Inner Core and ‘dig up’ the unknown Water Intent ‘buried in his Essence’, as his teacher phrased it. The results were... Minor, to put it mildly. If he had to put his progress into words, it ...

(AKJ)Chapter 103 - Elemental Law Intent

Bright Star City, Bright Star Island, Flowing Stars Archipelago, Earth

Demian's P.O.V.

“Let’s start with Intent then.” As a thoughtful look appeared on his face, Sergei continued. “What is Intent?” Before Demian could answer the question, majestic Soul Power fluctuations erupted from Sergei’s body, covering the entire gazebo and the other two people seated within. “Intent has a few components. First is the Soul Power se...

Hello, dear Patrons! Good news: I finally finished setting up everything to sell my first novel! I won't touch the free chapters which are available on the platforms I usually post on (RoyalRoad, Scribblehub, Webnovel and Wattpad), but the novel in Ebook format does have a few improvements that are not available on the free websites.

Anyway, if you want to support my work financially and get something for it other t...

New Book 1 Cover and Improved Series' Synopsis

Hello, dear Patrons! I've been very busy this week and it's all related to this novel. First, I finally finished correcting every chapter of book 1. What a relief! Second, I've started the process of turning book 1 into an ebook. Up there is what I came up with for the cover of Book 1. Hope you like it. I'm currently 'battling' with the synopsis I need to put on the back cover. I've come up with the text below for the platform I usually post on, but for a book's back cover, it's too long... I...

Chapter 102 - A Stage beyond Peak Chi Gathering?

Bright Star City, Bright Star Island, Flowing Stars Archipelago, Earth

Demian's P.O.V.

Time passed, as swiftly and silently as a light breeze in Autumn. A week later, the last piece of understanding naturally fell into place, completing the ‘puzzle’ he was wracking his brain on, which brought a light smile to Demian’s face. After taking a deep breath, he stopped circulating his Cultivation Technique and opened his eyes. “Nine...

Chapter 101 - Who can determine what you deserve?

Bright Star City, Bright Star Island, Flowing Stars Archipelago, Earth

Demian's P.O.V.

Indeed, after a brief inspection, he immediately noticed his understanding of the Technique had moved from the equivalent of the first Flawed Rune to around 30% of the second one. All of that progress after only one ‘round of battle’ lasting no more than 45 minutes... Compared to the few hours it took him to barely reach the one Flawed Rune pro...

(AKJ)Chapter 100 - Endless Tide Heavenly Technique and Energy Runes (R18)

Bright Star City, Bright Star Island, Flowing Stars Archipelago, Earth

Demian's P.O.V.

A few hours later, Demian, currently seated cross-legged in his personal Cultivation room, finally opened his eyes, his gaze thoughtful as his mind began organizing the information he had just discovered through the few Information Storing Jades stored inside his Void Ring. “No wonder Teacher said my Cultivation was a mess. It’s so much more co...

(AKJ)Chapter 99 - Tier 2 Void Ring, Techniques and Artifacts

Bright Star City, Bright Star Island, Flowing Stars Archipelago, Earth

Demian's P.O.V.

A few minutes later, Ling had brought them to a secluded but relatively large courtyard where she explained. “This is where you’ll stay. Each of you has a bedroom, cultivation room, alchemy room...” She swiftly reviewed every part of the masterfully crafted building made of light gray stones as its foundation and ancient wood as walls, window...

(AKJ)Chapter 98 - Bright Star City and Serene River Mansion

Bright Star City, Bright Star Island, Flowing Stars Archipelago, Earth

Demian's P.O.V.

An unknown time later, the Energy blocking his Senses finally disappeared, prompting the young man to let out a slight sigh of relief, especially when he noted, unlike the previous time, how little impact the journey had on him. ‘Teacher was right, it was much easier than Intercontinental Void Travel.’ He realized while taking stock of his envi...

(AKJ)Chapter 97 - Central Star Intercontinental Void Relay Station

Central Star City, Central Star Island, Flowing Stars Archipelago, Earth

Demian's P.O.V.

As his mind regained clarity, his gaze started roaming around to find out where they had arrived. Immediately, he discovered that their group was standing in a spacious room that easily reached tens of meters high and wide. Whether it be the frescoes sculpted directly on the white marble walls that depicted fantastic creatures and majestic men an...

Goal change (Book 1 re-editing)

Hello, dear patrons!

I simply wanted to share with you a slight(?) change I decided to enact from today. As most, if not all, of you know, I had decided to re-edit Book 1. To make it better following my increase in writing skill. Well... I decided to stop that madness for multiple reasons.

The first is because of how much time and energy I needed to do it. If it was a simple 'correction', it would have been fine, but because I went mad, it ended up being an almost complete re-wr...

(AKJ)Chapter 96 - Teleportation Formation

Molvograd, Molkovia, Earth.

Demian's P.O.V.

A short moment later, Demian and Seraphine were back with the others, with Roman trailing silently behind them. After glancing briefly at Roman, Sergei’s eyes turned to the two lovers’ direction and asked. “Finished what you wanted to do?” Nodding his head, the young man responded. “Yes. Ready when you guys are.” With a calm smile, the older man then swiped his gaze over the fou...

(AKJ) Chapter 95 - Inner Demons

Molvograd, Molkovia, Earth.

Demian's P.O.V.

An instant later, he felt a layer of familiar Energy covering his body, stopping him from moving completely, giving him enough time to recover his sanity. With his mind back to ‘normal’, he found himself in a punching position a meter away from where he was previously seated, his fist halfway from Roman’s head with no way for the latter to react to Demian’s sudden attack. Fortunatel...

(AKJ) Chapter 94 - The truth behind his mother's death

Molvograd, Molkovia, Earth.

Demian's P.O.V.

When did Demian start to blame himself for his mother’s death? He could not tell exactly. For the first few years of his life, his Aunt repeatedly claimed that his mother Izabella passed away due to catching a rare disease. However, she never went into much detail despite asking her for it many times, something he could not understand then. Fortunately, or unfortunately depending on how o...

(AKJ) Chapter 93 - A romantic air-treading walk

Molvograd, Molkovia, Earth.

Demian's P.O.V.

After enduring massive injuries from the Nine Lightning Tribulation, Roman’s body looked horrifying. Most of his skin had vanished from the high temperature, his flesh having become similar to a melted candle. Only his bones below seemed relatively untouched, although, from the fluctuation coming from the man, Demian was sure that his organs should have also been relatively ...

(AKJ) Chapter 92 - Roman's Lightning Tribulation

Molvograd, Molkovia, Earth.

Demian's P.O.V.

Demian’s question brought everyone’s attention back to their previous conversation, prompting the older man to continue with his explanation. “Exactly. Your situation is very precarious. On the one hand, it’s a massive opportunity for your cultivation path. On the other hand, anyone noticing your abnormally fast progress and the fact that you can unlock your Energy Channels is likel...
