Crimson Peak Chronicles
Willowmist Village was peaceful… until the night everything burned.
Lei Wei, an ordinary village boy, watches helplessly as a Nightbane Dread Wolf—wielding terrifying power far above mortal beasts—leads an army of controlled creatures to slaughter everyone he’s ever known. His parents are slain, his home is ashes, and all hope seems lost.
But in his final moments, Lei Wei awakens something ancient—
a dormant divine fragment hidden within his soul.
In an explosion of otherworldly force, he saves a dying wolf pup with a mysterious bloodline—the Silverflame Dire Wolf, a suppressed descendant of Ancient Primordial Beasts, sealed and weakened yet brimming with unfathomable potential.
The battle ends, but the world he knew is gone.
Guided only by Elder Yun, one of the last survivors and a peak Spirit Stage cultivator, Lei Wei flees into the unknown. As they journey toward Greenleaf City, he learns of the vast path of human cultivation:
Mortal → Spirit Seed → Veinforge → Coreglow → Spiritveil → Etherheart →
Void Ascension → Astral Apex → Divine → Eternal Luminary
A path full of glory—
and endless bloodshed.
Lei Wei must grow stronger, but every step brings new dangers. Hidden sects, ambitious clans, corrupt cultivators, and beasts far stronger than the Nightbane lurk beyond every forest, every city wall, every shadow.
His Silverflame companion fights its own silent war, struggling to recover its sealed primordial bloodline. Their destinies intertwine—boy and beast, cultivator and familiar, both rising from ruin.
But Lei Wei is not alone in his soul.
Deep inside him, the god-fragment sleeps, watching… waiting…
ready to awaken when his life hangs by a thread—
ready to seize control when he reaches the limits of mortal power.
The world believes the gods vanished long ago.
They are wrong.
And Lei Wei’s existence will shake every continent.
From the ashes of a forgotten village, a legend is born.
From tragedy, a cultivator rises.
And from a fragment of divinity, a god awakens.
The path of ascension has begun.
