Reborn as a Demonic Tree 5An Isekai LitRPG Adventure
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.

When XKarnation first imagined a tree that could devour flesh to grow stronger, they weren’t in a shadowed forest or a candle-lit study—they were wading through job applications in the middle of a soul-numbing tech career hunt. That odd, lingering thought—what if a tree could evolve like a video game character?—grew into something far more potent than expected. It became the seed of Reborn as a Demonic Tree, a darkly humorous cultivation fantasy that flipped genre expectations on their head and caught fire with readers across Royal Road and beyond.
Reborn as a Demonic Tree
In a world where power blooms through bloodshed and survival demands more than just strength, something ancient stirs beneath the forest floor. It doesn’t breathe, doesn’t speak—but it remembers. A tree, newly awakened in the heart of a ruthless demonic sect, begins to grow—not by sunlight or rain, but by devouring the corpses that fall nearby.
Reborn as a Demonic Tree consists of eight books and series is set to expand with the upcoming release of one more book. The current recommended reading order for the series is provided below.
