Sudden Breakthrough

1602 Words
“Christine, ah Christine. You really are interesting. Even at this moment, you’re still threatening me. This is Cloud Moon Forest, and even if I were to kill you now, who would know?” Christine’s complexion changed in a blink of an eye, her small mouth was gaping. However, she was unable to let a single word out. At this moment, sword aura flickered and Christine’s life was immediately severed. Her eyes were wide open with a hint of disbelief even at death’s door. Jaden gazed at her corpse and said indifferently, “I forgot to tell you that I’m not afraid of your father because my father is also the Patriarch of the Shiba Clan. Moreover, I’m definitely not afraid of your brother because he doesn’t even hold a place in my eyes and previously I even beat your little brother Edward.” After he had finished speaking, Jaden turned around and walked away. However, before taking even a single step, he immediately turned around and looted over twenty Qi Gathering Pills from Christine’s corpse as well as an archaic map. “This girl is indeed very wealthy,” Jaden thought to himself as he put away the Qi Gathering Pills. He then shifted his gaze to the archaic map. Jaden’s current vision was naturally able to see the age of this archaic map; it was indeed very old. “According to the conversation between Christine and her guards, they had discovered a cavern based on the map. However, this cavern was too run down and there were no treasures within it whatsoever. Presently, I don’t have anything to do. I might as well go take a look at this cavern and see if I can find anything…” decided Jaden. Either way, there was one day remaining before he had to return to the Shiba Clan, thus he still had plenty of time. He was only going to take a look, it wouldn’t waste much time. Perhaps he could even find something. Jaden followed the map slowly and walked towards the location on the map. Soon enough, a cavern appeared before him. This cavern was encompassed by a dense pile of trees with the height of the entrance being roughly two people tall. Overgrown weeds surrounded the cavern and the place seemed ordinary. Jaden proceeded to enter the cavern. However, as he entered, his face revealed a trace of disappointment. The interior of the cavern was approximately ten meter deep; one could see the end of the cavern with just the naked eye. Other than the heap of overgrown weed, hollow marks could also be seen on the walls. There was simply nothing special about this place at all. “It seems like this archaic map is indeed just a scam.” Jaden lightly shook his head as he prepared to leave. Suddenly, Jaden noticed a palm imprint on the cavern wall, this imprint was deeply indented into the cavern wall. The details of the imprint were extremely distinct and emanated a strand of a chilling intent. “Huh?” Jaden turned suspicious. His instinct told him that this palm imprint was different. Jaden promptly walked towards it, carefully inspecting the palm imprint. He had even retrieved the Black Meteorite Sword from his waist and probed the imprint using it. However, Jaden shook his head when he realized that there was no mechanism behind the palm imprint. Perhaps it was something left behind from someone else’s training. However, at this moment, Jaden’s entire body suddenly shivered. “How did the Rage God Bloodline appear on its own?...” Jaden felt a great shock, he didn’t even have the time to ponder over this before a ferocious and tyrannical force erupted from the ordinary-looking palm imprint on the cavern wall. It was as if heaven-defying pressure violently gushed out. “This is….” Jaden was completely stunned. If the Rage God Bloodline hadn’t envelop himself in its aura, then Jaden wouldn’t have been able to withstand the aura with just his cultivation; he would’ve been ripped into pieces by it. At this moment, Jaden gathered his thoughts once again. The palm imprint in front of him is definitely not a common imprint, but it was something an expert had left behind. This caused the palm imprint to contain an imposing power that lingered in this area. “It seems like the treasure described in the archaic map is actually this palm imprint. Christine’s cultivation was too low, that’s why she was unable to sense the Will within the palm imprint. If it wasn’t for the Rage God Bloodline, then I wouldn’t have noticed it either!” Jaden took a deep breath and gazed at this dreadful palm imprint, his face couldn’t help but to show a hint of excitement. Now that he had the Rage God Bloodline protecting his body, he was no longer afraid of the palm imprint wounding him. Instead, he decided to observe and ponder upon this palm imprint in order to further strengthen himself. There were many different kinds of Martial Skills within the Martial World, cultivation was dependent on one’s Will. The stronger the Will, the more formidable one strength will be. It would be of great use if one were to comprehend the Will embedded in the palm imprint. Jaden didn’t waste any time as his figure immediately sat cross-legged in front of this cavern wall. His gaze was fixated on the palm imprint; his mind was currently in a state of deep focus. Boom! Boom! Boom! In an instant, a series of explosions occurred within Jaden’s brain. A frightening and powerful palm descended out of the blue, it felt as though it was crushing Jaden and blasting him in pieces. At this moment, the Rage God Bloodline’s human avatar slightly raised its head, causing this intense and frightening palm to come to a stop and float within Jaden’s mind. Jaden submerged himself within his mind and wholeheartedly tried to sense the portion of Will. “This palm contains a Will that is indeed heaven-defying. When the palm descended, it felt as though there was nothing it could not destroy and nothing it could not extinguish,” Jaden came to an understanding and unconsciously, his heart began to refine itself. This process was a type of Will Tempering. Time slowly passed by, Jaden had been sitting in front of the palm imprint for an entire day. At this moment, Jaden was sitting upright in front of the cavern wall. His body did not emit the slightest bit of aura, even his breathing had stopped. It was as though he had become a statue. Following this, Jaden’s eyes abruptly opened. It was as though a chill and fierceful substance jetted out from his eyes and entered the cavern wall. At this moment, the incorporeal aura emanated by Jaden emitted heaven-defying pressure, it far exceeded the pressure of a fourth-layer Foundation Establishment Realm expert. Surprisingly the pressure from Sky God Realm Cultivator, made Jaden breakthrough in Fifth-layer Foundation Establishment Realm. “The harvest of a whole day’s comprehension is indeed great! Unfortunately my cultivation level is too low, I could only scratch the surface of this great palm imprint. Jaden shook his head. He was now able to confirm that this palm imprint was definitely left behind by a Sky God expert. Naturally, the Will of a Sky God was not something Jaden was capable of comprehending, he was only able to scratch the very tip of the iceberg. Additionally, if Jaden hadn't possessed the Rage God Bloodline, then it would be possible that he would’ve already been wounded by the Will of the Sky God. “Now…. let’s test my Heavenly Star Sword Technique!” Jaden’s expression was tranquil as he pulled out the Black Meteorite Sword from his waist and slowly closed his eyes. After an incense worth of time passed by, Jaden’s eyes snapped open. The Black Meteorite Sword in his hand instantly struck out. Rumble! A thunderous explosion immediately erupted. An icy sword ray struck forth containing a heaven-defying aura. It was as if Jaden’s body had fused together with the sword and sliced towards the cavern wall. In an instant, a deep sword s***h immediately appeared on the wall. “This strike contains my intent. I’m afraid that the current me has already taken a step into the realm of One with the sword! Additionally, I reckon the average fifth-layer Foundation Establishment Realm expert would not be able to obstruct this strike! Jaden was delighted. The harvest from visiting this cavern had been immense; if Jaden hadn't had the support of this palm imprint, then he wouldn’t have been able to step into the realm of One with the sword. “Alright. It has already been 15 days since I entered Cloud Moon Forest. By now, father should have prepared everything. Hence, it’s time to head back to the Shiba Clan….” Jaden’s eyes flashed and immediately exited the cavern and descended the mountain. At this time, in Imperial City, the Shiba Clan had begun the monthly Clan Meeting.
