Records of Immortality

ANURAG_SAHARAN
“Heaven fears faith. Hell fears will. Existence fears Sadhana.” Ashan should have died. Instead, he wakes in a world that counts his sins. Here, Sadhana is not cultivation for power—it is judgment. A brutal path where every choice leaves weight behind, where souls are currency, and where survival itself is a crime recorded in an unseen ledger. Before he is allowed to live, Ashan is forced to face his past—through trials that strip away excuses, mercy, and lies. Those who break are erased. Those who endure move forward, carrying their guilt like chains. There are no chosen heroes. No divine systems. No second chances. Only consequence. To survive, Ashan must accept the sins that define him—and decide whether he will be crushed beneath them… or use them to carve a path that defies fate, gods, and the darkness growing inside his own heart. This is not a story about redemption. It is a story about what it costs to keep living. Author’s Note This story features an original cultivation framework called Sadhana, inspired by mythic and philosophical concepts rather than standard Xianxia tropes.

Plants vs Dungeon

When dungeon gates opened across the world, it became a gold rush. Hunters chased glory. Guilds chased power. Corporations chased profit. Phong Tran awakened as a Level 1 Farmer. No skills. No passives. A broken EXP bar that never moved. So he sold energy drinks instead. Leg warmers. Electrolytes. Power banks. If everyone else was digging for gold, he’d sell the shovels. Then Josh came. University golden boy. Gym-built. Son of a man who could erase problems with a phone call. “Protection fee.” Phong refused. He woke up in a hospital bed, beaten within an inch of death. His aunt and uncle were gone. No bodies. No investigation. No media coverage. Just silence. Then, as if the universe had a sense of humor, his system finally gave him a quest: Plant and harvest 10 potatoes in the dungeon. That’s it. No penalties. No forced missions. No ticking clock. No promise of justice. Just a choice. Phong takes it. The potatoes mutate. Then other plants followed. Chilies spit burning rounds. Sweet potatoes bulk up into blunt-force bruisers. Garlic turns chemical-warfare illegal. Enoki mushrooms rattle like dungeon-grade machine guns. His crops become his frontline. Phong doesn’t want to conquer the dungeon. He wants to build something inside it. A farm. A hearth. A settlement for people tired of being disposable. He won’t let revenge be the only thing he grows. Revenge lit the spark. But it won’t be the only thing he grows. And if the most powerful man in the city comes looking to finish what his son started... He’ll learn something the dungeon already knows. This farm fights back.
