First novel
By @Meet Patel
Long Hao, a pragmatic survivor from a dying Earth, is violently thrust into the Xun Wu continent, a realm where cultivators shatter mountains and defy the heavens. He awakens not with a grand dao, but with a chilling cheat: the ability to resurrect his slain enemies as skeletal minions. Each victory adds to his growing bone legion, a silent, unfeeling army bound to his will. Yet, this power comes with a price, forcing him to confront the morally ambiguous nature of his existence. As ancient sects vie for dominance and demonic beasts ravage the lands, Long Hao must carve out his own empire of the dead, or be crushed by the very world he seeks to conquer. Will he succumb to the endless cycle of death and undeath, or rise as a necromantic overlord who reshapes the fate of Xun Wu? His journey is one of chilling ascent, where every ally is a potential minion, and every enemy, a future soldier.
