Ashen God Novel

Zhang Yanhang leads an unremarkable existence as an Awakener and college student, cycling through the mundane routine of classes, cultivation practice, and home life. His sole pastime involves observing people during frozen moments of time. Expecting this monotony to stretch indefinitely, everything changes one night when a mysterious prompt appears before him. The system offers three choices: enter the Ashen World and gain body digitization powers along with methods to grow stronger, decline the invitation and spend the night gaming instead, or hesitate until exhaustion claims him at two in the morning. Regardless of his decision, being late for school the next day seems inevitable. What begins as a simple choice will alter Zhang Yanhang's ordinary life forever. As someone who is pragmatic, decisive, and thinks unconventionally, he approaches this unexpected opportunity with his characteristic ruthlessness.
