About this listen
The world is wide, and the heavens are high. More mysteries and adventures fill the world than can be contained in the pages of a single story. But some few can be glimpsed here.
Join Gu Xuilan as she journeys to her home in the deathblighted desert now ironically named the Golden Fields to face family, her own doubts, and the relentless rise of the dead.
Join Bai Meizhen in the small and personal story of her discovery of love, blooming at the Argen Peak Sect, only hinted at in the course of Ling Qi's story.
Join many characters from all across the world of Destiny Cycle, in small stories both grand and personal, here in the Journey to the East and other Tales of Destiny.
Inspired by ancient folklore, modern martial arts, and Xianxia, Threads of Destiny cultivates a world both fantastic in setting yet familiar in the humanity of its inhabitants. Don't miss this installment of one of the most popular titles on Royal Roads—with over 7 million reads—elegantly performed by Earphones Award-winning voice artist Natalie Naudus.

Story
Hi there! I'm Magical Girl Crystal Genocide, one of the twelve magical girls, and sworn protectors of Earth! We were like a superhero squad, but with more sparkles! We fought day and night to keep the baddies at bay and the Earth safe. But, one day, our best wasn't good enough. So, we huddled up for a superhero brainstorm and decided to pool our powers for this mega, super-duper save-the-day plan. We kinda goofed. Big time. Instead of saving the day, we accidentally wiped out a quarter of the Milky Way.

As a newly minted healer, Zoe doesn't need a unique ability to take on murderous cultists, an equally murderous paladin, and the weather. She'd certainly like one, though. It's a fast-paced, violent world, filled with undead ghouls, sprawling dungeons, and far too many scheming nobles, all of whom want a piece of her. A healer is a valuable asset—and becoming a demon and blood magic user only ups the ante.

Liu Peijin has spent the last decade of her life writing a widely read—and very trashy—LitRPG web novel. Too bad her readers don't really like the book . . . or the author. But who can blame them? Peijin is bitter and far more interested in challenging negative reviews and blocking all critics than engaging with fans. Until one day, after arguing with a commenter, she receives an ominous message: "Tomorrow, 1 p.m. I have a surprise for you." Sure enough, the next day the Azure Dragon of Peijin's story appears on the freeway before her and slaughters dozens of humans in a flash.

Story
All Marek wanted was time alone with a good book. Instead, he's given a Class of legend, the spirits speak his name, and the fate of the world rests on his shoulders. His simple life shatters the moment he awakens as the next Remnant Mage. His body, mind, and core begin a relentless transformation. Gifted—or cursed—with the ability to perceive what lurks behind the veil, Marek must learn to command the lingering spirits that haunt its unseen depths.

Story
Zane was driving home from work when the world changed. Thousands of dungeons spawned at once, taking up every inch of Earth—including the road he’s driving on. He wakes up to a totaled car and a broken leg, facing down a goblin trying to spear him through the guts. And that's just the start of it. But to Zane’s surprise, he finds himself enjoying this brutal new world. While others cower and hide, he goes on the hunt. He unlocks a unique Berserker skill—the more damage he takes, the stronger he gets.

On a little-known planet, Archmage Varic Vallenar casts a grand spell to empower himself with the magical abilities of his alternate selves.

Terrors of technology and magic. Nothing that he, or anyone, can defeat.

Syl was given a choice by Gramps when they died. Reincarnate as a regular person or embark on a daring experiment. Driven by a desire to honor Gramps and a sense of adventure, Syl chose the latter... only to awaken as a lowly slime. A farmed slime. The life of a farmed slime was cruel. Syl was constantly at the mercy of humans, a slime whose only purpose was to eat and recycle garbage. The threat of lethal core-destroying knives wielded by innocent children was a constant shadow. This was not the life Syl had envisioned. So, they made a daring escape to the wilderness!
