The Ember Spirit Tide

On the night the crimson moon hung in the sky, a tide of spiritual energy swallowed half the city.

Lin Ye was just a dome maintenance worker, not even qualified to undergo “spiritual awakening.” But when corrupted creatures tore through the defensive wall, he clutched the bronze token his father had left him to protect his sister, Lin Xi

“Ding! Pure spiritual energy detected. Special ability ‘Spirit Sight’ activated.”

He can see through the attack patterns of corrupted creatures, spot signs of life in the ruins, and even borrow other people’s abilities.

But when he leads the survivors through the tainted wasteland in search of a way forward, he discovers that mutated creatures are far from the most terrifying threat. The dome city conceals the secret of human experimentation, and the ancient ruins pointed to by the bronze token bear a warning: “An alien race is on its way.”

Is this tide of spiritual energy salvation, or the final countdown before human civilization is devoured?
