Astral Ascendant: Rise of the System Lord

In a world ruled by cultivation, where strength determines fate and the weak are left to perish, Lin Feng was born cursed — his spiritual meridians severed, incapable of absorbing Qi. Branded as useless and discarded by even the most humble sects, his life in the desolate village of Qinghe is one of ridicule, shame, and quiet desperation.



But destiny has a strange sense of irony.



When a celestial anomaly strikes the mountains near his village, Lin Feng stumbles upon an artifact buried deep beneath the earth — an ancient shard of cosmic power bound to a forgotten era. It activates a long-lost entity within him: the Godly Cultivation System. With its guidance, he can cultivate at 1,000 times the normal speed, unlocking strength at a rate the world has never seen.



Yet, such power comes at a cost.



As Lin Feng rises, the world shifts around him. From battling vicious spirit beasts in forgotten wildernesses to unearthing ancient ruins buried in myth, from navigating deadly sect politics to confronting entities that defy mortal comprehension, he is pulled into a cosmic game far greater than he can imagine.



The lines between right and wrong blur as power tempts him. Enemies will rise. Allies will fall. And the question will echo:



Is Lin Feng the System's master... or its pawn?
