Demonic TribulationsA Chinese Epic Fantasy Novel
When demons rise, empires fall…
The demonic realms are in constant upheaval, where shifting alliances and ruthless ambition shape the fate of all who dwell within. Now, across multiple plains, powerful new leaders have emerged, each driven by a single goal: conquest.
Their sights are set not only on their own dominions, but on the fragile Middle Kingdom beyond. Though the Heavens watch the growing conflict with unease, ancient accords forbid their direct intervention.
Wu Ying and Fa Yuan walk a perilous path, intervening where they should not, risking exile and death with every step. Meanwhile, mortal cultivators Tou He and Yin Xue are drawn deep into the demonic plains, fighting to prevent a catastrophe that could consume every realm.
The balance of the realms is breaking—and even immortals may not be enough to save it.
Demonic Tribulations is the second book in Celestial Cataclysms, an epic xianxia fantasy series by Tao Wong. Taking place in the same world as A Thousand Li, it delves into realms old and new, making it perfect for longtime fans and first-time readers alike.
