Jaden Shiba lay collapsed on the ice-cold rock ground, looking at his surroundings with the aid of a dim light coming from the cave walls. In his mind, there appeared some memory fragments that didn't belong to him.
Feeling weak all over, Jaden frowned and slowly lifted himself up. Just then, to his surprise, He noticed that this body was not his own, but that of the other Jaden Shiba who was only 17 years old.
This was the memory of another Jaden. A boy who was 17 years old before he died and had the same name as himself.
He was dumbstruck for a moment.
"Didn't I die in the laboratory? No! I am still alive but how!"
...
According to the other Jaden's memory, this place was called Blazing Star Continent, where there was no science or technology. There were endless waging wars and warriors raging everywhere!
Many people here showed mysterious abilities not long after they were born. Some had the brute force of Mammoth, some could control plants, some could control Fire, some could use the chill of frost, and some were capable of communicating with demon beasts...
People with these various abilities would all become warriors, and their abilities were referred to as Bloodline Limit.
Bloodline Limits were nearly all possessed at birth, and only very few could acquire a spirit through some stroke of luck. Not every warrior could possess a "Bloodline Limit", in fact, the majority of warriors weren't blessed with one. Ordinary people could train hard to become a warrior, but there was no way to obtain a Bloodline Limit through training. Bloodline Limits were so powerful that they could benefit a warrior's training, increasing their combat potential significantly and granting them their own special abilities...
As a result, among warriors of the same level, those who owned a Bloodline Limit tended to be much stronger and achieved significantly greater results. They did half the work with double the results.
The "Bloodline Limit" can be inherited through blood, plus there was a higher probability where one inherited the Bloodline Limit. In general, if one of the parents possessed a Bloodline Limit, there was a high possibility that their child would inherit the same bloodline. If both of the parents had a bloodline, their child would have an even greater chance to inherit one of their bloodlines, either from the father or the mother.
There was only a one in a hundred chance that a couple, who both possessed a Bloodline Limit, would give birth to an ordinary child. Even rarer was the situation where the kid inherited both bloodlines from his parents, and those types of lucky individuals which possessed them were also known as a 'Heaven’s Chosen'! It only happened to one in ten thousand couples who possessed different bloodlines.
Jaden stood there and continued to put the fragmented memories in order.
The original owner of this body came from the Shiba Clan. They possessed the Titan Body Bloodline Limit which could make the body that of a Titan if trained properly, preventing damage to the body. As said fighter raised their cultivation, the Titan Body Bloodline Limit would become much stronger, to the point where they were virtually indestructible.
Unfortunately, this guy didn't inherit the Titan Body Bloodline Limit and was thus considered a poor successor for the martial arts that the Shiba Clan trained in. Due to which he was humiliated and shunned by his peers and other clan members and him being the only child of the Clan Leader made his life more difficult. His meager strength is also the reason for his current situation, Marcus Shiba, the grandson of First Elder of Shiba clan, throws this body’s previous owner from a cliff, so that he can have a chance in becoming the next clan leader after removing Jaden from the picture.
