Celestial Ascent Chronicles
In the vast Myriad Realms, where lower planes feed into the boundless Great Thousand World, a new legend begins in the humble Great Yan Empire, the birthplace of the Martial Ancestor Lin Dong. Lin Feng, a sharp-witted student from Earth, is reborn from birth into the fading Lin Clan, a third-rate family in Qingyang Town. Blessed with the secretive Star Sovereign System—a mysterious tool that conceals itself from detection, offers no insight into others’ power, and demands cunning over reliance—Lin Feng rises as a prodigy, his Earth-born intellect and system-driven talent setting him apart from childhood. Knowing only the legend of Lin Dong, whom he aspires to surpass, Lin Feng is unaware of the broader multiverse’s heroes like Xiao Yan, Zhou Yuan, or Mu Chen, whose legacies intertwine with his destiny.
The Great Yan Empire operates under laws altered by Lin Dong before his ascension, suppressing the power of upper-realm visitors to the Nirvana Realm, the lower realm’s ceiling, while its inhabitants remain ignorant of the Great Thousand World. At sixteen, Lin Feng’s cultivation adventure leads him to the Blackwater Forest, where he encounters Zhou Qingyue, the celestial beauty and granddaughter of Zhou Yuan, the Saint Sovereign from *Dragon Prince Yuan*. Qingyue, descended from the Great Thousand World to train, seeks the Love Crystal to forge powerful techniques, unaware that absorbing it will awaken uncontrollable love for the first person she meets—Lin Feng. Their fateful encounter sparks a dual cultivation, binding them as soulmates, but Qingyue’s fury drives her to nearly kill him. Lin Feng vows to ascend to the Great Thousand World to marry her as his first wife, setting the stage for a journey of love and redemption.
As Lin Feng grows, he crosses paths with other remarkable women: Xiao Liyao, a fiery descendant of the Flame Emperor Xiao Yan (*Battle Through the Heavens*), Mu Lingshan, the serene yet deadly daughter of Mu Chen (*The Great Ruler*), and a mysterious second wife from the upper realm, whose identity unfolds later. These connections form a harem of powerful allies, each tied to the multiverse’s legendary figures. Yet, a sinister shadow looms—the Abyssal Monarch, a remnant of the Heavenly Evil Monarch’s forces, whose servant Xue Wuya hunts the Love Crystal to fuel a cataclysmic return. Lin Feng, starting from a low-level clan, must navigate this web of love, rivalry, and cosmic threats, wielding his system’s power in secret.
From a prodigious child in a forgotten town to a star-bound cultivator, Lin Feng’s journey in *Celestial Ascent Chronicles* weaves a tale of ambition, romance, and destiny. With the legacies of Lin Dong, Xiao Yan, Zhou Yuan, and Mu Chen as his backdrop, he carves his own path to the pinnacle of the Myriad Realms, facing villains, forging bonds, and uncovering the secrets of the Love Crystal—all while keeping his Earth-born origins and system hidden. Will he surpass his idol, Lin Dong, and claim his place among the stars, or will the Abyssal Monarch’s shadow consume all he holds dear?
