Bears, tigers, wolves and wild boars were much stronger than ordinary humans. However, they still weren’t magical-beasts and never cultivated to increase their power. Continue reading

Chapter 2: The First Friend
It was a dark and stormy night on the mountainside, and I was just minding my own business, meditating at the back of my cave. There were ancient quartz crystals all around me; whenever I cultivated ‘indoors’, it would always be in close proximity to those beautiful pillars. They were able to absorb mana or Qi from the earth and air pretty easily, but I usually needed to wait a few days for them to build up a charge, before channeling it into my own body.

Chapter 1: The First Century
One billion years isn’t really as long as it sounds, at least not when you’re a cultivator. You always hear about these amazing ‘geniuses’ who find some ridiculously overpowered ancient treasure or techniques, then use them to defeat enemies that were slightly stronger than themselves.

Chapter 15: The Key to Salvation and Damnation
“Welp, I bet you’re glad we got you out of Dundalk now, huh? I always though Baltimore was a dump before, but this kind of puts things into perspective…” Luke, Iris, Kelsey and Lee were all sitting in a huge private movie theatre in the basement of their ‘secret base’. They were each reclining on a ‘personal’ leather sofa-chair and staring at a massive LCD screen. Continue reading
Chapter 14: The Chaos Magnet
Blood was leaking down the back of Michael’s old leather jacket, gushing out from a relatively small bullet-wound. That crimson liquid seemed to radiate an incredible and terrifying power that didn’t seem to belong on Earth. Continue reading
Chapter 13: Taking a Late-Night Stroll
Michael’s whole block was lit up by glowing blue, red, green and yellow trees, vines and other types of plants. However, across the single-lane street, was brightly illuminated by a myriad of raging house fires. Continue reading
Chapter 12: Exodus
“Come on~! You can do it~! Yay~, I’m glad I never have to worry about the stairs you broke, or the completely destroyed wall, doorway and part of the kitchen counter… Anyway, good job Violet~! Daw~, who’s a cute bear-sized rat-dragon~? Aw~, yes you are, you’re my adorable, ow~! Shitballs, no biting! My right arm is still all fucked up from the last time you maimed me!” As Michael was trying to ‘bond’ with his feral parasitic demonic beast, she attempted to bite down onto his arm again. Fortunately, he was wearing a leather jacket, so he was able to avoid being injured. Continue reading
Chapter 11: Pandemic
Baltimore wasn’t like Manhattan; it wasn’t an island and it was impossible to ‘quarantine’ the entire city by simply blocking off some bridges and tunnels. There were several highways, which were easy to block off under ‘normal’ circumstances. Continue reading
Chapter 10: Apathy
As the father and son were talking, a middle-aged woman who seemed surprisingly young for her age, had entered the living room from the kitchen. She had long and wavy, dyed brown hair with blonde highlights, and was wearing a paint-covered white sweater, with similarly stained sweatpants. Continue reading
Chapter 9: Impending Doom
“Ow~, shit, I can actually see the bones… Maybe Violet is a little too dangerous to keep in my room?” Michael was in the shower, washing his body with blue liquid soap, as he stared into the gaping holes in his right forearm. A decent amount of blood was pouring into the bathtub and dying the water red, as it was steadily rising. Continue reading
