<p>CW / TW: Casual and common profanity, mentions of nudity, possible fade-to-black implied scenes, oftentimes detailed descriptions of violence and gore, non-glorified but still present outdated / medieval views on subjects such as sl*very. (Words censored here for CW concerns, but will not be in story.)</p> <p>Alina Blake is a Nephilim and the reincarnated soul of the strongest cultivator to have ever lived. She just doesn't know it yet. Born in a small Beastkin village on the Ring, she's a social outcast amongst most of the villagers. At first, it's due to being different, a presumed Demon adopted by a poor family. Then, after she catches the attention of a Wandering Cultivator, it's due to her training under him. Most mortals hate or fear cultivators, after all.</p> <p>But she wants more from the world than to live her whole life in a small backwater where she isn't welcomed by the majority of her peers, and she'll push through the pain of training and become a powerful cultivator, even if it takes hundreds or thousands of years.</p> <p>Until her System unlocks and she finds out, it definitely will not take anywhere near that long.</p> <p>Additional Tags: [High Fantasy] [Cultivation] [LitRPG] [Villain] [Demon Lord]</p> <p>This story is going to be a power-fantasy, the main character will be much stronger than is average in this world for her level. However it will not be an instant-god-status type, but rather a gradual climb to that point. This is my second story on Royal Road, and the first story on The Ring, a Niven-like Ringworld set in a fantasy universe around a dying star being devoured by a black hole. I am not super knowledgeable about cultivation stories, but after reading several of them this year and doing a bunch of research, this one is me dipping my feet in the water. The setting is mildly influenced by D&D and other stories I've read here on RR and elsewhere, though I try to be different enough from all sources of inspiration that it becomes my own twist. This world has a decent amount of worldbuilding behind it, more on that can be found in the discord in the future.</p> <p>No set update schedule at the moment, but updates will not be infrequent. Chapters usually around 1k words but with a maximum of 3k words.</p> <p>Nephilim Ascension Discord: https://discord.gg/hF6EJrSyCC</p>
