What to Expect Welcome to this Martial Peak fanfiction, a respectful expansion of the legendary work by the original author. This fic follows the core events of the original, with a fresh twist in the form of a new protagonist who is an "outsider"—a modern reader reincarnated into the world of Martial Peak. 1. MC Setup: A Cultivation Novel Reader in Martial Peak The protagonist is NOT someone from the Martial Peak universe but a cultivation novel enthusiast from another world. No prior knowledge of Martial Peak, but vast experience with cultivation logic, tropes, and meta-awareness from similar novels. This allows for unique decision-making, unconventional strategies, and a slightly different approach to situations while still following the original storyline. He won’t be overpowered from the start, but expect fast progression due to his deep understanding of cultivation mechanics. 2. Respect for the Original Plot No major timeline changes—key events still happen as they should. All future arcs and climaxes remain intact to preserve the integrity of Martial Peak. What changes? The MC’s interactions, techniques, and relationships, providing a fresh perspective while saluting the original work. Expect some butterfly effects, but nothing that derails the core story! 3. Large Harem (With More Depth & Development) Martial Peak already has one of the largest harems in cultivation fiction—we’re expanding on that. 4. Smut Content Included Let’s not dance around it—explicit content will be featured in this fic. Balanced between romance, cultivation growth, and action, ensuring the story remains engaging beyond just smut. Cultivation-based dual cultivation, yin-yang balance, and ‘special’ training sessions will be explored in a tasteful yet satisfying manner. 5. Fast-Paced Updates Since we’re not making drastic changes to the story, the pace will be fast and consistent. Updates will focus on the MC’s journey, harem development, and the occasional divergence to deepen character arcs. As long as there’s support and interest, the fic will keep expanding. Final Notes This is a passionate tribute to Martial Peak, keeping the spirit of the original intact while giving readers a fresh perspective, expanded harem dynamics, and more in-depth character interactions. Are you ready to ascend to the peak once more? Let’s begin.
