Path Of Ascension Novels & Stories

Xiao Chen was silent and tried to carefully recall the problems experienced by the fifth elder's grandson. Suddenly, Xiao Chen remembered a book that wrote about the fifth elder's grandson's problem. It explained that it was not because the fifth elder's grandson had failed. He succeeded, only that his grandson couldn't wake up because the soul or spirit of the fifth elder's grandson was imperfect. It was possible that while in the Nascent Soul realm, the soul of the fifth elder's disciple had been damaged or poisoned. However, he was able to ascend because of the qi that had been accumulated in his dantian and his soul, which had to evolve into a child's soul when stepping into the immortal

Something that doesn’t rush forward, doesn’t need to, because it presses into the world itself, bending it, fracturing it, feeding on the magic that should have held it back. Wrong doesn’t come close. “Back!” someone shouts, but I don’t move. This isn’t something you run from. Power rises through me instantly, not called, not forced, just there, limitless and waiting, and the ground splits beneath the first wave, roots tearing upward, crushing, binding, dragging them down before they can spread further, while the air ignites with threads of magic that cut through the next line before they can reach us. I don’t hesitate. I can’t.

Every delay brought disaster closer. I turned toward Lucien. "How do we reach the seal?" The ancient king pointed toward the far end of the hall. A massive doorway stood there, hidden behind rows of statues. Unlike every entrance we had crossed before, this one remained sealed by enormous silver gates covered in glowing runes. "The Path of Ascension." Thomas stared. "We're descending deeper into a mountain." "Ancient kingdoms enjoyed confusing names." "That seems unnecessarily dramatic." Elyria almost laughed. Almost. The queen approached the gate and placed her hand against the center rune.

It was as if they were traversing a hidden passage that connected two entirely different worlds—one cloaked in luxury and mystique, the other alive with the rhythm of daily life. As they continued along the passageway, Drake noticed that the ceiling gradually ascended, and a soft hum of engines grew louder. The anticipation in the air was palpable, and a smile tugged at the corners of his lips. He glanced at Simon, whose expression held a mix of satisfaction and excitement. And then, as if by magic, they emerged from the underground and onto the bustling city streets. The transition was seamless—the hidden passageway had led them directly into the heart of the urban landscape.

I felt an experience I knew yet didn’t recognize as it echoed past traumas I had attempted to hide away in my mind. I hadn’t felt it in years. During the war against House Noctura I last experienced its presence when shadows moved and logic collapsed. The war with House Noctura left me with vivid traumatic memories that formed a chaotic tapestry bound together by desperate magical threads. The last moment an Ascendant lost control occurred when their power consumed their intention and their abilities transformed from salvation’s instruments into destruction’s messengers. The old scars pulsed with pain as I remembered the destruction their uncontrolled magic had caused.

Riley was convicted of attempted homicide and sentenced to a lifetime in prison. When we made it to the North Point research station, the sky was lit up by a spectacular aurora that dyed everything it touched in a green hue. Caleb stood beneath the starry sky and offered his hand to me. I didn't hesitate as I stepped forward and took his hand.

With a light leap, we landed on the trees beside the wall, using the branches to propel ourselves down with ease. Allison and I had fought through countless battles together. We had once been surrounded by enemies, forced to jump off a hundred-meter snow-covered cliff, only to land in a pile of snow with nothing more than a few scrapes. This was nothing. My warriors made it down one by one. I was the last. Just as I adjusted my bag and prepared to jump, Derrick grabbed my arm. "Talia, wait… I've been thinking. I was wrong. "I'll announce our relationship and even get rid of Lilith just like you wanted.

she asked eyeing a drawer critically and then closing it. “Ah”, Fiona she hummed with an air of someone realizing something, “No”, she shook her head, and “It doesn’t work like that, because Ascendant magic is basically a borrowed power from one Supreme Being, such power cannot be handed to more than one Avatar at any given point, it messes with a certain amount of the world’s balance. Us, as Ascendants are—avatars of a sort. It’s a Unique Power, hence why we are called Ascendants or Students of the University Sui Generis or Sui Generis”, she listed, “We are all Unique”, she stated, “Powerful beings that all hold one Unique Gift”, she explained at length.

Once Phoenix put this on and tied the scarf securely around her face she and Patry left the Goyre’s temple. Once again Phoenix was amazed at the glorious beauty of the realm. From the stories she heard, the souls of men whom the gods were pleased with was brought to the pantheon after death. The pantheon was the heaven realm of mankind and once they died their souls would be granted entrance to the realm provided they pleased the gods in their earthly live and Pasige, the guardian of souls to eternity, granted them passage.

"I do. I just struggle to believe it." "Look at me Ezra. Please." He did as I asked, so I continued before I lost the nerve to say what needed to be said. "You and I were connected together by a goddess. She laid out a path for us that it seems most others choose to take and thrive on. You and I didn't take that path. We've walked so far down another that the old path is gone, and it's too far away to ever get back to. That doesn't mean that we don't deserve happiness Ezra.
