General Announcements
Hi everyone,
It's time for a new Chinese novel today, and it's a comedic cultivation story! Who Let Him Cultivate?! has 50 chapters out now.
Here's an intro from its translator:
It is the ninth day of the first month of the year—a suitable day for the launch of this novel (I hope… :3) I am Rakumon, the translator of Who Let Him Cultivate?! This novel is known for its refreshing humor and imaginative ideas in the Chinese community. If you like a witty protagonist, interesting side characters, a mystery plot in the background, and plenty of comedy, do read on and be a part of Lu Yang’s journey!
I have previously worked on Consort of a Thousand Faces and Transmigration: Of Mysteries And Songs on Volare. It will be my first time translating a novel from this genre, and it definitely doesn’t help that this novel is heavy with jokes, puns, wordplay, memes, poems, cultural references—you name it. Nonetheless, I will try my best to bring them across to all of you, and please also feel free to share your comments!
The translator’s thought section will be where I’ll share interesting stuff regarding mentions in the novel as well as some thoughts of my own. To find out more, you may also check out my Twitter and Instagram accounts! Lastly, I look forward to seeing you on Discord :D
Perhaps the fate of the cultivation world was sealed the moment Lu Yang decided to join it. This was all thanks to Lu Yang's abilities in artful deception, subverting expectations, triggering miscommunication…and the list goes on.
Along the journey, he meets like-minded and not so like-minded companions who eventually become like-minded, but one thing was for certain—the way is Lu Yang’s way.
“The stars in the sky are fake.”
As an all-out battle of the era looms around the corner, various factions entwine in a clash for dominance, and newly unearthed information begins to question the history of the universe as they knew it.
What is the truth of the world? How to cultivate and live the Lu Yang way? Follow Lu Yang and the gang as they navigate the complex landscape with their antics and shenanigans, bringing (a hopefully positive) impact to the cultivation world.
~~~
“The power of words!” Man Gu earnestly slammed a bulky dictionary on the opponent's head.
“The power of money!” Meng Jingzhou casually hurled a treasure at the enemy.
“The power of Big Senior Sister!” Lu Yang wittingly summoned the most terrifying force—Big Senior Sister.
I'd also like to highlight a reader review written by VoidImmortal0!
This book is very good, and from what I have read so far, if you like comedy, you will definitely like it. The MC seems intelligent and thinks differently from most MCs; this contributes to the book's comedy, which itself is different from most comedy books. He is not the typical MC who is looked down upon and needs to rise from untalented to the top, but from what we have seen, he is not the most talented person either. Up to chapter 30, there hasn't been much (if any) action, but it's still considered part of the introductory chapters, so it is reasonable. Even then, you won't get bored. I would consider this book a hidden gem.
The translation is very good, and the translator seems like a friendly person who tries to communicate with the readers, and I personally like that.
I recommend giving it a try and reading a couple of chapters before making a decision. The chapters are not that long, like most Chinese cultivation books, so you can read a good amount of them and see whether you like it or not.

Hi everyone,
We've just released Life Rebooted with Copy and Paste, a new Korean novel!
In Life Rebooted with Copy and Paste, Kim Do-Joon’s monotonous life takes a thrilling turn when he discovers a game-changing ability: the power to copy and paste the effects of items. What starts as a desperate quest to save his daughter from a rare and debilitating illness soon transforms into an epic journey of self-discovery and empowerment.
The story begins with Kim Do-Joon in a state of despair, feeling trapped in a future that seems bleak and unchanging. His life takes a dramatic turn when he stumbles upon a unique ability that allows him to copy and paste the powers (effects) of any item he encounters and transfer them to other objects—or even to himself. This newfound power becomes a beacon of hope as he embarks on a quest to find a cure for his daughter’s condition, which is the initial motivation driving him.
As he delves deeper into this ability, he discovers that it’s not just a means to an end but a gateway to a new and expanding world. Each item he copy-pastes contributes to his growing strength, and with each step, Kim Do-Joon uncovers more about the mysterious and intriguing world around him. This journey is not only a battle against external obstacles but also a personal transformation as he evolves from a desperate father into a formidable force. The novel blends action, strategy, and emotional depth, making it a compelling read that keeps the audience hooked from start to finish.
Life Rebooted with Copy and Paste is a story of perseverance, transformation, and the relentless pursuit of a better future, proving that even when life seems dark and unchangeable, one extraordinary ability can turn everything around.

Hi everyone,
Today is a very special day, because December 22nd marks Wuxiaworld's 10 year anniversary! On behalf of all of Wuxiaworld's translators, staff, and editors, thank you for your support in enabling us to come this far. Wuxiaworld has undergone many changes and tribulations over the years, but the dedication of our members to bringing you high quality translations and enjoyment has remained throughout.
RWX founded Wuxiaworld with a principle of being as transparent as possible to the community, believing that honesty and forthrightness were a core part of building mutual understanding and a successful platform. It's a principle I admired as a reader before being hired in 2018, and it's one we've endeavoured to continue.
From a humble beginning of just one novel at the end of 2014, Wuxiaworld has grown into a library of just over 200 novels and more than 180,000 chapters (over 350 million words!), with an active roster of well over 100 staff members, translators, and editors.
Wuxiaworld pioneered the English publication of Chinese and Korean webnovels, directly creating the market we currently operate in. We've exhibited at San Diego Comic-Con, we've licensed novels from some of China and Korea's biggest companies, and we've become the home of global hits like Overgeared. Wuxiaworld's path over the last 10 years has been truly historic, and none of it would have been possible without you.
Speaking of beginning with one novel... we're happy to announce that Coiling Dragon has now returned to Wuxiaworld! This is the original untouched translation – not our re-edited, improved version for Amazon publication – so this is the place to go if you're looking for some pure nostalgia!
In preparation for this anniversary, we asked some of Wuxiaworld's initial translators, as well as the authors of some of our novels, if they would like to send commemoratory messages. They contain reflections on the last 10 years and hopes for the future, and we've collated all of them for you to read! We've also created a page for the messages we collected from you guys in an announcement last month.

Earlier in the month we created a thread on our forum for everyone to share their stories of how they found Wuxiaworld, and it's worth checking out! Whether to add your own story, or simply read through the others and reminisce.
Starting today, we're running a five day discount on Amazon! The first volume of Coiling Dragon, Sovereign of the Three Realms, I Shall Seal the Heavens, and Unrivaled Tang Sect has been discounted to just $0.99, and the rest of the volumes are all also discounted. Amazon has a gifting feature, so if you have a friend or family member you want to convert into a webnovel reader, and you haven't bought them anything for Christmas yet... here's an option! Unfortunately Amazon's system for running discounts is only available for .com and .co.uk though. And due to some limitations in their rules, there are two volumes of CD and one volume of SOTR that we haven't been able to include.
Our next novel launch will be on the 27th, so we'll also take this opportunity to wish everyone a merry Christmas! We still have more events planned for this anniversary celebration throughout the next month, so check back soon! And again, thank you.

Hi everyone,
Gateway of Immortality is out now, with 50 chapters waiting to be read! This is a new Chinese novel being translated by Joash, who is also working on Mythical Era. Here's an introduction:
Hello everyone! I am Joash, the translator of Gateway of Immortality. As someone with a Chinese cultural background, translating novels, though hard at times, has always been good fun for me. Gateway of Immortality is a really good novel that incorporates ancient Chinese elements, making it fun to translate as I learn new things along the way. Especially now that the viral game Black Myth: Wukong has brought some of the ancient Chinese elements to the world, and you can probably find some of these elements in the story too. I hope you guys enjoy the read just as much as I've enjoyed working on it!
This is a story about a young man, who had transmigrated to another life, another world. A demon who used human sacrifices? A divine being who wielded a flying sword? Immortals! Qin Sang was never the same after his encounter with immortals. Determined to become one himself, he became willing to do anything. But how far would he go to grasp the power of immortality?

Hi everyone,
We've just launched a new Chinese novel – Returning to the Mysterious Era! 50 chapters are out now. Here's an introduction from its two translators:
Hi everyone, I’m earthworm, one of the translators for Returning to the Mysterious Era. I remember my first introduction to Wuxia novels being the very popular Soul Land. Since then, I’ve enjoyed reading Wuxia novels as a way to pass time and escape reality (just kidding). As an impatient person who can’t stand cliffhangers, I slowly transitioned to reading raws and grew interested in translating. Though this is my first project, I hope to make the journey as enjoyable for you guys as it is to me. Hopefully, we can reach a satisfying conclusion to this story in the next year or so!
Hello everyone, I’m R4gequ1t (ragequit) and I’m one of the translators for Returning to the Mysterious Era. I grew up in a household that speaks both Chinese and English. With the ability to comprehend and translate both languages, I thought to myself: why not give novel translating a go? As I started translating, I found myself getting hooked on the story and the characters in the novel. Although this is my first time taking on novel translation, I hope to make the story as interesting for you as it is to me.
Returning to the Mysterious Era features a boy who can time-travel back to the past using old relics. The twist? He’s stuck in the body of the relic’s owner.
After a near-death experience, Cassius unlocks his ability to travel to the past in the body of Li Wei, a member of the Wind Elephant Sect. Li Wei was a coward who lived a life of regrets up until the day the entire Wind Elephant Sect was murdered. As Cassius relives Li Wei’s past, he makes different decisions to show Li Wei a different kind of future.
By living out the ups and downs of Li Wei’s life, Cassius is introduced to the world of Covert Martial Arts, ties that run closer than blood, and supernatural forces. Crossing the line between the ordinary and supernatural, he realizes there’s no way back. New friends and enemies slowly integrate into his reality.
Now, he must uncover the secrets of Covert Martial Arts and become stronger to survive.

Hi everyone,
The Mad Dog of the Duke's Estate is out now!
The life of a powerful knight who was bestowed dark mana from the Malevolent Emperor had ended. But not to a complete end. He had reincarnated into Caron Leston, the youngest grandson of the Duke! With all the knowledge and skill remaining in Caron, he shows incredible growth threatening those around him. His ultimate goal is to become a troublemaker bringing chaos! Follow him on his eventful journey through his second life!
If you're drawn to stories of dark mana, unstoppable growth, and a Mad Dog who shatters every expectation, dive into The Mad Dog of the Duke's Estate!
------
From now until November 30th, the voting is open for Wuxiaworld's yearly Reader's Choice translator award! There will be one winner for the Chinese category, and one for the Korean category.

Additionally, this year you get three votes per category instead of one!
Edit: voting is now closed!

Hi everyone,
We just launched a new Chinese novel called Unintended Immortality, and the first 50 chapters of it are available now! Here's an intro to it from its translator:
Hello everyone, I am PandaPear, the translator for Unintended Immortality, a thrilling xianxia novel. I've been translating novels for over four years now, diving deep into the world of cultivation and grand adventures. When I saw that Wuxiaworld was recruiting translators, I immediately jumped at the opportunity to bring more amazing stories to readers like you.
Like many of you, I started as a passionate reader, binging countless chapters of my favorite web novels and always yearning for more. It wasn’t long before I began translating, fueled by the desire to share these captivating tales with an even broader audience. Now, I'm excited to introduce Unintended Immortality, a story I believe will keep you hooked with its rich characters, amazing world, and deep cultivation lore.
I can’t wait to embark on this adventure with all of you, and I hope we’ll build some lasting memories along the way as we follow the adventures of Song You and his companions together.
Song You traversed into an ancient world, growing up in a Daoist temple under the care of his master. After leaving the temple, he descended the mountain to explore the world. He considered planning his future travels, but unfortunately, nothing came to mind.
This was because Song You had little enthusiasm or interest in this world. With limited understanding and insufficient motivation, it naturally made it difficult for him to craft a detailed plan. At times, memories from the past would surface uncontrollably in his mind.
Whenever he thought about the uncertain future, not knowing how far or how long he would walk alone, and how many such nights awaited him, a sense of loneliness would rise within him. What he didn't realize, however, was that from this very night, his story was about to unfold!

We're currently running a giveaway of five exclusive Overgeared mousepads, kindly provided to us by its Korean publisher Mayamaru! The giveaway is open to everyone. For the full details, click here.

On Monday 18th at 7pm PST (which is 10pm EST, and the 19th at 3am GMT, and 11am GMT+8), Qoob, the translator of Wayfarer, is going to host a question and answer session on our forum! The thread is available now for any questions to be posted in advance.

Hi everyone,
We've got an extra special novel launching today! It's SSS-Class Revival Hunter, also previously known as SSS-Class Suicide Hunter. This one has been a long time coming, but it's finally here now! It's being translated from Chapter 1 by Namu, and the release rate will be six chapters per week.
Kim Gong-Ja is a Class F Hunter who always flaunts his inferiority complex online.
The Tower, appalled by Gong-Ja’s ugly jealousy, gives him a Skill that allows him to take other people’s Skills.
This super cool ability comes with one major flaw.
He will die, and it will be his end.
As always, the end comes in the most unexpected moment.
However, at his first end, he realizes that death isn’t the end for him anymore.
Today, he dies again to be someone’s new beginning.

As some of you noticed, the new Cultivation Key feature had a bug where for Days 4 and 7 of each seven day check-in cycle, a lower than intended number of Keys was granted. The bug has been fixed for future check-ins, and we're in the process of automatically adding the missed Keys to all relevant readers' accounts (we've added the Keys for one day, but not for the other yet. It should be done tomorrow). Sorry for the confusion!
We've got an extra special novel launching today! It's SSS-Class Revival Hunter, also previously known as SSS-Class Suicide Hunter. This one has been a long time coming, but it's finally here now! It's being translated from Chapter 1 by Namu, and the release rate will be six chapters per week.
Kim Gong-Ja is a Class F Hunter who always flaunts his inferiority complex online.
The Tower, appalled by Gong-Ja’s ugly jealousy, gives him a Skill that allows him to take other people’s Skills.
This super cool ability comes with one major flaw.
He will die, and it will be his end.
As always, the end comes in the most unexpected moment.
However, at his first end, he realizes that death isn’t the end for him anymore.
Today, he dies again to be someone’s new beginning.

Hi everyone,
Our latest Korean novel is out now, and it's called On Hiatus: God's Personal Reasons! (The novel isn't on hiatus, that's just the name!) It's being translated by J. Andie, who previously worked on Big Life.
Yu Il-Shin is a novel writer and a genius at that (as claimed by his editor-in-charge). But in this modern era where Hunters, monsters, and dungeons are rampant, he also hopes to awaken and gain some valuable abilities of his own and maybe have a successful change in career. He did awaken, and off he went to the Hunter Association to get himself examined. He was found to have awakened with Creation-type abilities and was evaluated to be of the lowest rank of all: G-rank.
Yet, something interesting happened to him. He chanced upon a strange game on his phone: God-Maker, which he hadn’t recalled installing before, but still decided to launch the mobile game anyway, trying to see what it was before uninstalling it altogether.
In the game, he found a few ants crawling on the screen, and instinctively began crushing them. During this period of awakening and playing the strange mobile game, he was also working on a new novel that was put up for serialization on a famous webnovel site.
If you are wondering whether he was killing the ants out of anger or not, and how he progressed on the game, check out On Hiatus: God’s Personal Reasons!

This Saturday (October 19th), at 12pm EDT, which is 9am PDT, 6pm GMT+2, and midnight GMT+8, Etvolare will host a live chapter reading for her current translation, Star Gate! Make sure to join the Wuxiaworld Discord and keep an eye on the Star Gate channel if you're interested!

Hi everyone,
We've just launched a new Chinese novel called Planet Pulverizer: A Mortal's Ascent! 50 chapters are out now.
It's being translated by Yukidaruma and Aaron Mclarren, two longtime veterans of the scene (around since 2016!) who we're happy to have joining us. Here's an introduction from them!
Hello everyone, I’m Aaron Mclarren, one of the translators for Planet Pulverizer: A Mortal's Ascent. Like many others in the community, I discovered web novels and quickly became captivated by them. I fondly recall my university days when I was so engrossed in Tales of Demons and Gods that I lost track of time and missed my classes. (thankfully, I still graduated!)
After starting my translation career with GravityTales, I’m now thrilled to work on Planet Pulverizer: A Mortal's Ascent. The novel follows Li Pin, an ordinary university student whose soul has transmigrated from the Blue Planet. Determined to fulfill his martial arts dreams, Li Pin embarks on a journey to push his limits and uncover the true potential of humanity. I’m excited to share this story with you and look forward to a fantastic adventure as we journey through this novel together.

Hi there! I'm Yukidaruma, co-translator for Planet Pulverizer: A Mortal's Ascent. I have always loved reading and was introduced by a friend into the translating community some years back. I've worked on a few translation projects in the past and now am diving into this novel with the team and starting this new story on Li Pin.
Whilst there may potentially be hair-pulling moments on this journey, together with Aaron and team, I hope that we'll be able to share this wonderful story with you and that you'll enjoy it!

Transmigrated from the Blue Planet, Li Pin, once an ordinary university student, finds himself thrust into a world of ferocious beasts and demonic creatures. Haunted by the loss of his parents to illness in his previous life, he yearns to understand the fragility and potential of human life.
In a realm dominated by Astral Cultivators, Li Pin's determination to push the boundaries of human potential is unwavering. Driven by the question, "What are the true limits of the human body?" he embarks on a perilous journey into the world of martial arts.
Will he ascend to the pinnacle of power, unravel the mysteries of the human body, and truly comprehend the essence of martial arts?
