Trial Of Ascension Novels & Stories

Vera's words stirred Charlie's curiosity. He quickly asked, “So, the one with the fate of the ascending dragon can ignore the laws of nature. Does that mean it's like what people say about ascension, where one can ascend like those in legends?" Vera chuckled and said, “Young Master, you're overthinking. Ascension is merely speculation derived from people's understanding of the Book of Changes and the Eight Diagrams. People often believe that by cultivating to a certain extent, they can ascend to another world, just like what we Easterners call the immortal realm or what Westerners refer to as the divine realm. However, according to my understanding of the Book of Changes and the Eight Diagra

Mandatory participation. “Good afternoon, everyone.” The previous Alpha’s voice was deep and strong demanding the attention of the room. “Welcome to the beginning of the Luna Trials. It’s great to see so many wanting to participate for the chance to be the next Luna of the Ash Mount pack.” Cassy snorted and was promptly elbowed by Alex. “Other packs have sent their own candidates for the Trials. Please welcome them and enjoy some healthy competition with our guests.” Another snort, another elbow. Worth it.

"What kind of test is this?" "The kind that will break us if we’re not careful," I replied, my voice low. I could feel my pulse quickening, the memories of past traumas stirring within me. Whatever trial awaited, it would be more than just a physical battle. It would be a fight for our very souls. The spirit’s form shimmered, and the air around us grew even colder. "Step forward and face your trial." I swallowed hard, taking a deep breath as I moved closer to the tomb’s entrance. The others followed, their expressions grim. There was no turning back now. The deity was waiting, and the only way forward was through the test.

“Consider this a warm-up. The real test will come when you face Asher.” Jason’s expression hardened. “I’m ready. He won’t stand a chance.” “Good,” I said. “Because failure is not an option.” As the days passed, the castle buzzed with activity. The ritual drew closer, and every detail had to be perfect. The full moon was only three nights away, and with it, my ascension. But the closer we got to the ritual, the more I felt the cracks in my armor widening. Elana’s warnings about Willow refused to leave my mind, no matter how hard I tried to dismiss them.

Oh now you have definitely crossed the line, I will make sure you are charged for assault you hear me , this will be your last day in this school Sooha did not bother to turn back Right now, the only thing that mattered was getting to Pappie’s on time it was now looking like an impossible task

He greeted the room with a nod, his gaze steady but questioning. “You called for me, Father?” he asked, his voice even. The Alpha motioned for him to sit. “Oliver, it’s time you understand what’s expected of you. Your birthday marks the beginning of your ascension, but before that, you must prove yourself.” Oliver frowned slightly. “Wouldn’t that be after my birthday? Also, do we have to go to that length? I have been proving myself all my life.” A murmur rippled through the council, but the Alpha silenced them with a look. “This is different. These tests are sacred. You’ll face trials that challenge your body, mind, and spirit. They will push you to your limits. Are you confident?”

“She stood against the Covenant without hesitation. If she is to be judged, let it be by her deeds not her past.” Lucian nodded in agreement. “I stand with the Beta.” The murmurs softened. But not all were convinced. The silver-bearded elder leaned forward. “Then she must prove her loyalty beyond doubt. According to pack law, any prospective Luna must undergo the Rite of Ascension.” “What does that entail?” I asked with a slight frown. The elder’s expression was grim. “A trial of strength, wisdom, and sacrifice beneath the Moon Goddess.” Ryker’s eyes hardened. “The Rite is dangerous.”

Blood dyed the entire mountain red before everyone around me could realize what had happened. As the ceremony began, I appeared before the Gate to Heaven, staring coldly at the lively scene above. Step by step, I ascended the mountain peak. The stone stairs beneath my feet crumbled into dust with each step I took.

“What if it does eventually?” Lucien answered quietly. “Then we remind you.” The forest responded again—this time more subtly. A low vibration traveled through the ground, not threatening, not violent. Acknowledging. Something deep in the earth knew her now. Selene felt it answer her pulse—not with hunger, but with patience. She turned back toward the sanctuary, heart racing. “I think… I think this is what ascension feels like,” she whispered. Lucien nodded. “The beginning of it.” Rowan exhaled slowly. “So what happens next?”
