Feng Mang - Chapter 1

BLURB> He was reborn by mistake. Raised with purpose. Loved by a god. Worshipped by monsters. And the galaxy doesn’t stand a fucking chance.Irvine’s soul took one wrong turn through the wheel of karma and woke up in a body grown by an intergalactic hivemind goddess with boundary issues and galaxy-sized ambition. Now he’s the golden child of a psychic swarm that feeds on control and burns whole worlds for affection.With Crystal at the helm, warriors like Kimchi, relic-weapons like Kiya, and a council of psionic horrors eager to call him king, Irvine must choose what kind of god he wants to be.Because when a hivemind learns to love......it doesn’t know when to stop.The universe will kneel—or get devoured trying.SYNOPSISIrvine didn’t ask to be reincarnated, but the cosmos had other plans. And it didn’t hand him a cheat code or a clean slate—just one random boon, selected by an uncaring divine roulette wheel.Good karma? Bad karma? Balanced as all fuck.Now he's reborn in the body of a psionically tuned alien hybrid, raised from psychic infancy by Crystal, the hivemind queen of a race so advanced they’ve abandoned individuality for shared omniscience. All except her baby boy.Irvine is the singularity inside the swarm, the first soul allowed to think, dream, and desire independently. Trained by warriors like Kimchi, advised by bio-symbiotes like Kiya, loved ferociously by hive sisters like Diane, and shadowed by powers ancient and unnamed, Irvine is both weapon and wielder, saint and sacrifice.But empires don’t run on hugs and handjobs. As Crystal expands her dominion—across star systems and sentient nebulae—Irvine must lead the charge through blood, fire, and psionic flame.His soul is still human. His body? Engineered for extinction. His heart? Not entirely his anymore.

In the rural northeastern mountainous regions stands a tiny Buddhist temple, named One Finger Temple. It isn’t a large one but it is extremely miraculous.

The temple has rice that emanates an aromatic fragrance.

The temple has sweet and refreshing water that rivals ambrosia.

The temple has Buddhas that grant wishes to the sincere.

The temple isn’t large but it has everything. The temple isn’t large but it has flourishing incense offerings that far exceed all temples. The temple isn’t large but it attracts both citizens and foreigners that line up overnight…

The temple has a bald but handsome monk. Every day, he would bawl, “I want to renounce asceticism! I want to marry a chick that’s not too pretty, have a cute baby, and lead a stable life!”

Runes are the source of all power in the world, but for Ignotus, they were a death sentence.A mercenary, assassin, and leader of the desperate, he'd spent more than ten years running from a Fate forged by sheer, abysmal luck.But when the hunt finally ended, the unhinged Stranger did the impossible:He traded his life to maim the realm's three absolute rulers, leaving scars that even the Gods couldn't heal.Infuriated by the humiliation, Hora, the Queen of Time, cast an ancient spell to reverse the clock and erase his final strike....But her arrogance became his salvation.Ignotus regressed to the day of his Ascension, the very day he received his first Rune.This time, he wouldn't play by the rules.While others beg for Primary Elements like Fire or Water, he deliberately chooses the Element the realm deems the weakest of all, knowing its true, terrifying potential.Armed with the [Heretic Saint System], a set of Irregular Soul Glyphs, and knowledge of the realm's war-ridden future, Ignotus is done running.He will leave the family that abandoned him to forge a new Path—one that leads his own House into the Heavens, all to rewrite his Fated ending!But...Ding!That would've been too easy.—{HERETIC DETECTED!}[Nex, of House Death, has sensed the Soul that escaped his scythe.][Hora, of House Time, has seen the stain left on her clock.][???, of House Light, has witnessed the birth of a Twisted Light.][YOU ARE BEING HUNTED.]—The hunt has resumed... an unending game of cat and mouse.Would Ignotus survive this time? Or rather...Would they be able to stop him?—{Author Of Misunderstood Villain}{Alternative Title: Father Of Luck & Calamity}[Status]{Volume One, Break The World: Completed}{Volume Two, House Of Strangers: Completed}{Volume Three, Demons Are Coming: Completed}{Volume Four, Death Is Here: Ongoing}[Note]- MC's powers are very unique.- MC gains many interesting Soul Glyphs.- Fast initial progression for MC and his Cohort.Discord Link: https://discord.gg/bGGfgMfu48
