Reborn as a Demonic Tree 5

Ashlock's ascension to the Nascent Soul Realm attracts all the wrong attention.

It turns out a spirit tree calling down the wrath of heavens and forming an Inner World is quite the spectacle, so Vincent Nightrose—an ancient threat that has loomed over Ashlock and his sect for far too long—awakens and deems Stella Crestfallen's bloodline ripe for harvesting.

While Ashlock has ascended to Nascent Soul Realm, Vincent Nightrose is an ancient cultivator far above his level. To survive, the Ashfallen Sect must seek to destroy the Blood Lotus Sect from within, starting with those closest to Vincent.

Ashlock must also expand his reach and power as the secrets behind Stella's origin are unraveled and the beast tide draws ever closer. Things are heating up as enemies far above Ashlock's station surround him on all sides.
