In a world transformed by the arrival of mana, Earth is no longer the domain of humanity alone. Magical beasts and three powerful humanoid species have claimed vast territories, forcing humanity into fortified cities protected by mana-infused barriers. 

The hope for survival lies with the awakened—those blessed with magical classes and the ability to wield mana.  

Victor Revenant, a hilarious and self-deprecating 16-year-old, has spent his life dreaming of joining their ranks. But on the day of his Awakening Test, his dreams are shattered. Like countless others, he fails to awaken, destined to remain ordinary in a world where mediocrity means irrelevance.  

Just as Victor hits rock bottom, his father gifts him a VRMMORPG game, Ascendant Realms: Cultivation Chronicles, as a consolation prize. The game promises an immersive cultivation experience, complete with mystical techniques, powerful bloodlines, and the journey to ascend to godhood. But when Victor logs in as his in-game persona, Fang Chen, he discovers something incredible: the cultivation techniques he learns in the game begin to manifest in the real world.  

Armed with the Primordial Chaos Constitution and the legendary Void Emperor Bloodline, Victor embarks on a dual journey—mastering the game’s cultivation system while using his newfound abilities to change his fate in the real world. 

What begins as an escape from his failures turns into a chance to rewrite his destiny. But Victor quickly learns that his unique ability may make him more than just an anomaly—it may make him a target...

I Can Only Cultivate In A Game

Victor's eyes lit up the moment he spotted the glowing name above the player's head — FrostWarden.

Without wasting a second, he walked briskly across the inn, weaving through the noise of clinking cups and the sound of conversation until he stood before the only other player he had ever seen in the game.

"Hey! You're a player!" Victor voiced in excitement.

FrostWarden looked up from his cup and raised an eyebrow. "Yeah... I figured you were too when you locked eyes with me like you'd just found your long-lost brother."

Victor chuckled awkwardly, realizing how overly eager he sounded. "Sorry, I just—this is the first time I've met another player inside the game. Like ever."

FrostWarden tilted his head slightly in surprise. "Seriously? Not one until now?"

Victor shook his head. "None. I started the game months ago, and it's been just me and the NPCs."
