Arcane Cultivator

Build the deck. Cultivate power. Slay the gods. When a magic ritual goes disastrously wrong, Jaden is exiled to the heart of the desert and left to die. Battered and bruised, Jaden encounters the outcast Nomadwater Sect, who grant him a second chance at life as a mysterious arcane cultivator. With its savage beasts and cryptic mysteries, survival in the sprawling desert of Southfall is a dangerous game. Yet Jaden and the Nomadwater Sect persevere, growing closer and forming bonds over the course of a long summer. This changes the day the Gods kill their leader, seize the sect, and task Jaden with competing in the legendary Tournament of the Gods. If Jaden survives the tournament, the members of his sect live. If he dies, they die alongside him. Jaden now has just ten days to rank up. Ten days to master the dragonessence system. Ten days to save those who have become his new family. Arcane cards, mana cultivation, martial arts, elemental magic, a LitRPG system, and incredible relics are all at his disposal. And even then, it might not be enough…

Jaden's path to save the world from the gods? Become one himself. In the gripping sequel to Arcane Cultivator, the stakes are higher and the magic more powerful. Jaden and the Nomadwater Sect, growing ever closer in the treacherous Southfall, embarks on a daring quest to uncover secrets left by Elder Brother. But with Elias, the God of Sand, as their reluctant sponsor, their journey is anything but straightforward… Defying the god's wishes, they delve into Elder Brother's crypt, uncovering a prophecy of dire confrontations ahead and a powerful one-use Arcane Card, Elemental Convergence. Their defiance, however, comes at a cost. Elias, enraged, freezes them for three months, drastically cutting their training time for the looming challenges. In a race against time, the sect's journey takes them through the Kingdom of Middling, where they face the Emperor's Magi and uncover a bizarre task set by Elias: to find five floating heads in a deadly forest. Their mission leads to a daring rescue operation from the catacombs beneath E'Kanth and a revelation that could change their fate and cost them their lives…

The powerful conclusion to the “Arcane Cultivator” trilogy! Jaden and the Nomadwater Sect have one more shot as they prepare for the Third Pillar of the Tournament of the Gods. They will need powerful armor, new Arcane Cards, cultivated skills, and a strategy that the Gods won't see coming. Only one person can win the Tournament of the Gods, which could spell disaster for their Sect if they don't come up with a plan to thwart the tournament themselves. This is their moment. It will take everything they have, from partnering with an infamous relic hunter named Twillo to bringing back the dead to help them in the final fight, Jaden and the Nomadwater Sect will triumph. Or so they hope...
