Dust and blood scattered in an instant.Asahi and Aletha belong to a family of five that once governed a world known for its many powerful Rulers.

Talent.As a demon born into a prestigious family like the Tenebris, Cale lacked nothing, except talent.Talent, to surpass his twin sister, who was better than him in every way.Talent to earn the approval of their mother, the cold and ruthless Matriarch.It wasn’t mere rivalry; his very life depended on it.But, no matter how hard he trained or how low he stooped, using forbidden methods to grow stronger, he never succeeded. He couldn’t awaken his bloodline, nor defeat his sister in a single duel.“Just give up already. You’re only making it more painful for yourself,” she would say every time.He was pathetic, and he knew it.But giving up on life was never an option.“One more time... I’ll try it one more time.” That was how he always responded to her scorn.Was it ego? Or a desperate desire to prove everyone who waited eagerly for his downfall wrong?Cale didn’t know. But he always stood up again.No matter what they said, he refused to surrender.Not to his mother.Not to the world.Not even to his sister.If the world stood against him, then he would crush the world.-------------------------“Wow. That’s an incredible backstory for a villain.”I flipped through the worn pages of an old book, my only functional eye open wide.“But where did this come from? It wasn’t here before.”I’d read this romance fantasy novel back in my childhood, and as far as I remembered, Cale Tenebris never had a backstory.“Did I grab the wrong book?” I tilted the cover to check the title.[Curse of the Crown]It was the same one.“Did I skip this chapter before?... Whatever.” I shrugged, turning the page again as I slowly lost consciousness.And then I died.

WARNING:- MATURE CONTENT, TABOO CONTENT(Master-Disciple relationship)Lin Feng had reached the peak of the cultivation realm, but even that realm didn't guarantee him true Immortality.Only few cultivators can achieve Immortality due to restriction by heavens, those who are capable can become true Immortals, unbound by lifespan.Lin Feng didn't even come close to the top strongest cultivators in the whole universe.The top strongest cultivators have mastered at least one supreme Dao to the level where they can use them freely, so defeating them without mastering one is impossible.Mastering supreme Dao is impossible without the help of physique or other heaven defying treasure, and obtaining that level of treasure is just a foolish dream.But not all paths were closed for him, he decided to walk the path again and this time he has a way to obtain one of the top physique’s , Pure Yang Physique.He decided to walk the path of Dual Cultivation to attain Dao of Chaos, the strongest Dao in the whole universe.__________________**HIDDEN TAGS - {NO NTR , NO YURI}, Smart MC, Anti-Hero, Mature MC, Cunning MC, Ruthless MC, Preverted MC, Overpowered MC, Beautiful Female leads, Dual cultivation, Wars, Dark, WeakToStrong, Serious Mature Content. **__________________What to expect - It's a Dual Cultivation Novel so….Lot of smut(from the start of the novel, it will be toned down later for real plot). The tone and plot will follow the Eastern cultivation novel theme.**Smut scene won't be too flowery, some modern words which are not jarring will be used**A well balanced power system and good plot, try it , you definitely won't regret it.Size of Haram(wives)? Near 10...there might (rare case) be another women but they won't be part of harem because relationship won't develop to that point.**Important Point - Just get past the intial 5 or 6 chapters and you will like it more I promise, this is Cultivation novel with engaging plot***
