About this listen

Determination. Predestination. Redemption.

Aryc Tal Venn was supposed to be the savior of the universe. But a fateful decision left him blighted, unable to cultivate the primal Aether into the life-empowering energy of the Quintessence. With nothing but hope, Aryc undertakes a desperate quest to reverse his blighting.

Yet the way is not easy and there are those on Crucible who covet Aryc’s lost power. Those who will do anything to take it for themselves. Despite the dangers, Aryc must fight.

But when a terrible truth challenges everything he believes, Aryc is forced to question whom he fights for and why. Destiny comes for Aryc Tal Venn, and the fate of the universe rests in his hands.

Blighted, book two of The Quintessence: Crucible continues the epic progression fantasy cultivation universe brought to you by C.M. Carney, author of the number-one best-selling LitRPG Saga The Realms.

The book is chock full of qi cycling, measurable power progression, immortal gods, intriguing characters, deadly mysteries, and universe-shattering threats. It is perfect for all fans of progression fantasy, including lovers of LitRPG/GameLit, isekai, Western cultivation, wuxia, and xianxia.
