Rivers of the Night
An Imperial Scholar by day. An assassin by night.
The World of Cultivation has changed.
Elemental Mancers. Flux Mancers. Spirit Mancers. Soul Mancers.
Raining down fire and splitting oceans. Destroying mountains with a single stomp and calming skies with a glance. Controlling the tides of Karma, while wielding the souls of others like a puppeteer tugging on the Lines of Fate.
The most mysterious of them all were Spirit Mancers, a truth that Theron was more than intimately familiar with. Due to one's Tribulation, his life was turned upside down. His family, his rage, his somber sadness becoming nothing more than Bad Karma's fuel for a madman.
He was once a gentle young man, a non-combative Water Mancer who wanted nothing more than to read his novels to the sound of the rain and one day become an Imperial Scholar.
But now...
Everything had changed.
He donned a cloak in the silent night as the clouds above gathered. Pulling its hood over his chilling blue eyes, he stalked off into the darkness.
The first droplets fell.
He would become the nightmare of his enemies, the blade hidden in the shadows of Heaven's tears.
The River of the Night.
Hey everyone! Awespec here again with another addition to the Spec Universe. As someone who got into writing thanks to Eastern Fantasy, Xianxia and Xuanhuan novels, I've been disappointed, to say the least, that wn hasn't had a mover and shaker in the genre in the original category in a long while. I hope to change that with this new addition. It'll be bigger than RNIG, more heart pounding that GAB, and will without a doubt be the best cultivation novel that I have ever written, and hopefully you've ever read. Follow Theron, a young man coming up in the world. Watch as he steadily grows into his own, getting revenge for his family, unearthing the secrets of his Water Mancer lineage, and eventually, one day, marrying the daughter of a certain powerhouse of RNIG--hint, hint. Whoops, maybe I'm not supposed to put spoilers for my own stories in the reviews, but this time, I couldn't help it. This will be a non-harem story. It will have all the beats you expect in cultivation, but carry an underlying plot, intrigue, politics, and more, that you won't. I want to take the cultivation genre we all know and love and breathe new life into it, in a way that even my own stories haven't been able to in the past. Here's to hoping I succeed. Happy reading, everyone! If you have any questions about my plans for this novel, put them below. I'll be replying to this thread for a while :)
Haven't seen much on the world background, but at the moment it's really good. And the book is also developing quite well... Recommendation points: 90 I suppose the book can get to Webnovel Top 20 - If it gets enough support. I will be one of the supporters, and hope others join in soon...
OK, a review for another work by Master Awespec. Yes, he has cooked peak once again. My favorite part of the novel isn't really the main character—although he is lit—but the depth of the world, the magic system, and the rich history given to nearly everything. The writing is superb, naturally, with no grammatical errors, and the subtle poetic touch he adds to some descriptions makes it an even more amazing read. Although I believe the characters could benefit from a little more detailed internal musings, I feel like they were left out to maintain a sense of mystery, which I would say is a nice trade-off. So, I guess it's alright. Overall, an amazing work that is definitely going to make its way to the top of the rankings.
He cooks and he scores. This is a really Great book. ❤️❤️❤️❤️. Waiting for more chapters
Thanks for the Books!!!!! 😆 📖🍻 Let me be the first to give all five stars for all five categories for your new book aside from the Author 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 We are all looking forward for the next chapters 🥰📖🍷
Author does the same copy / paste for all his characters and their development. His stories have potential but it’s always the same scenarios in every book. You think the MC is going to level up ever? Think again! Whether it’s them choosing to postpone leveling up or in this case always regressing his core to stall development is just annoying and stale at this point. If you are going to keep writing maybe come up with a variety of characters and themes instead of just reusing the only one you seem to have. Honestly I was hoping for better just to be disappointed again. And I read till 153 unlike all the people giving 5 stars while barely reading…
Reveal Spoiler
So I'm gonna start this off by saying the review will be about both the book and the author. I have read every book wrote on this platform so far and the author has always loved the cold, genius, highly intellectual MC type. The ones who use there brains more then strength. Over time we have seen our authors writing mature to show this in better and better ways. With this one being the best BY FAR. I believe the author has finally found the perfect fighting style for the type of MCs he likes. that being an assassin With every other MC the author has written there fighting style often required them to use brute strengths at times. With this one being an assassin fits perfectly as assassin's are horrible at face on fights. The MC is cold, highly intellectual, and emotionless. Which is shown in every fight and interaction the MC has. Working purely on logic and nothing else The power system is simple ( So far, as that can change as the book is still in the early stages.) Which i acutally think works perfectly for the theme of the story and is a nice contrast from a highly complex power system that the authors other book GA has. I don't want to do any spoilers. But the authors word choices for certin things and certin sentences are actually immaculate and convey something the author has conveyed in every other book so far much better. I truely believe the author has found the perfect blend for his writing style and I hope to see more books similar to this in the future and that it doesn't change for this book ad we progress. Best work yet. 10 out 10. Your missing out if you don't read it
Quite literally the best novel I have ever read. I’ve read GAB up-to-date and I love it. It was my previous #1 a couple days ago but then I came across this one that Awespec began working on and I’ve already read 110 chapters in those couple of days. It’s literally addicting to read. The plot, world building, fight scenes, the internal dialogue - every single aspect of this novel so far has been just one word. PEAK. My hope is that this novel doesn’t end as just a novel. I hope it goes on to become a manhua, manhwa, manga, and get an anime adaptation. This level of writing has all the potential to be peak at all levels of entertainment. Keep up the great work Awespec.
Awespec coming out with another BANGER! If you haven’t read a book by Awe before, then you’re in for a journey. Just sit back, relax, grab some snacks, and enjoy the show!
It’s Awespec, WEBNOVELs greatest author. 5 stars
Chapters read: 42 I thought mixing mage concepts with cultivation was interesting, but things got a bit confusing to me. I did feel the antagonization of the MC was a bit forced with some of the characters. There didn't seem to be any background information as to what MC possibly did to them to merit that hatred lol aside from Raiden, the hatred of others seems a little out of place. That's just what I think, but I know someone can hate you for no reason too. So perhaps it's reasonable?? I thought the story was okay, neither great nor terrible.
This is my first novel by this author. I’ve read all available chapters and I’m hooked and really enjoy the story. I really like the MC and understand his mindset and his mission, but it would be nice to know the real MC, his real face, once he accomplishes his mission, and to also read about MC who also lives for himself.
Absolute cinema. Awespec is the king of slow-burn, but this one is still engaging and moving at a decent pace. See you all in 2000 chapters.
I mean it’s awspec it’s a guaranteed hit
