Ascension

When a Xiandao Cultivator reaches the end of Primordial Spirit phase, the cultivator is required to face a Tribulation. Upon passing the tribulation, they will enter Demigod phase, when they can choose to ascend or stay on earth, receiving increasingly stronger tribulations every 5 days.
A Shendao Cultivator will face the tribulation after reaching 100 Divinity. There is no option to delay the ascension after the tribulation. 
A Physical Cultivator will face the tribulation at the end of Chaos Phase. Upon passing the tribulation, they can choose to ascend or stay on earth, receiving increasingly stronger tribulations every 30 days.
== What it means ==
The Heavens don't like that you've gained the power to rival them, so you'll have to fight them for a spot on a celestial seat with an Ascension Tribulation.
If you succeed, your character ascends, and you get a statue commemorating them. If you fail, your character dies. Either way, you lose them. Items on the cultivator after ascension cannot be retrieved, so unequip any items that are important.

== Moral ==
Some people say that ascending a character is a more "moral" way of getting rid of them, rather than killing them off, or Banishing them, if their base stats are too poor to warrant Rebirthing.
