Legend of the Rage God

Christine Blackwood

“I’ve actually broken through the fourth-layer of the Foundation Establishment Realm!” Jaden’s eyes gleamed with a trace of happiness, he nodded his head in satisfaction. He jumped two stages this time with the help of Rainbow Elixir.

Jaden could clearly sense the changes to his body. For example, in the past when he had used the Titan Overlord Fist, he was only able to embed external strength to it.

However, if he were to use Titan Overlord Fist now, then he could imbue internal strength to it. If he imbued internal strength into the Titan Overlord Fist, it would unleash the power of a Sky-grade Martial Skill.

The fourth-layer of the Foundation Establishment Realm. Not only would it change the corporeal body, but it also gives you a higher understanding of your own body.

“These days within the Cloud Moon Forest have allowed me to reap a great harvest. However, returning now would be a bit too early, it would be better if I remain here and continue practicing!”

Jaden pondered for a while before coming to a decision.

The five hundred Qi Nurturing Pills which William is acquiring for him would take some time. If Jaden was to return to the Shiba Clan, then he was only able to painstakingly cultivate by himself. In that case, it would be better to remain in Cloud Moon Forest. Firstly, this would increase his combat experience. Secondly, if his luck was good, then he could even obtain some sort of fortuitous encounter. Similar to how he had discovered the Profound Qi Pond.

Jaden dedicated the rest of the time to hone himself. He was like a lone wolf within the forest, coming and going, incessantly slaughtering every Demonic Beast he encountered. The Demonic Beasts he had killed this time were of fourth-rank, he had even traded blows with those of fifth-rank.

“The power of my Heavenly Star Sword Technique is gradually becoming stronger and stronger. I feel like it won’t take too long before I make another breakthrough!” Jaden thought to himself as he darted through the forest at full speed.

During the two days of fighting, he had discovered that the speed of his sword had become faster and faster. Occasionally, the Demonic Beast would be dead before Jaden himself had realized it.

This state caused Jaden to raise some doubts. He naturally was clear on his own perception, and logically speaking, his perception has yet to reach this level. What exactly caused his increased perception?

After Jaden pondered over this, he gazed at the Titan avatar and Rage God avatar of his Bloodlines. At the moment, even Jaden wasn’t certain about this.

……

“If the Rage God Bloodline really could increase a practitioner’s perception as well as increase its own grade, then its prowess would be more than what we call ‘fearsome’....” Jaden thought to himself.

As Jaden was practicing his skills, a faint voice was suddenly heard from the front.

Ever since he had made a breakthrough to the fourth-layer of Foundation Establishment Realm as well as strengthened his viscera, Jaden had noticed that his vision, hearing, along with other things, had significantly improved. Essentially, any movement within the circumference of twenty meters can be easily detected by Jaden.

“Let’s check it out,” decided Jaden as he retracted his aura. His figure was like a demon as he quietly followed the voice.

Not long after, a group of people appeared before Jaden. Within the group of people were three middle aged burly men, they gave off the aura of a Second Stage Foundation Establishment Realm cultivator. Furthermore, the opposite party’s expression revealed a certain corruptness, it was evident that they have been killing people for over a long period of time.

Between the three middle aged burly men was a young girl.

Draped over the body of the young girl was a white cape and an indigo colored long skirt. This revealed the details of her curvy and delicate figure.

However, the young girl’s face was filled with impatience and arrogance.

Jaden was shocked when he saw this young girl, “It’s her?”

Jaden recognized this girl and was more than familiar with her. The name of this young girl was ‘Christine Blackwood’ and she was the daughter of the Patriarch of Blackwood Clan.

The Shiba Clan and the Blackwood Clan were recognized as the two top clans within Imperial City. Both clans possessed a “Life Transformation Realm” expert, their subordinates had limitless potential as well as an endless amount of disciples. Furthermore, the Shiba Clan and Blackwood Clan had a history of one thousand years, this in itself was extremely frightening.

In the past, there was a rumor that there was an exceptional genius who had an Sky-grade Bloodline Limit within the Blackwood Clan. However, whether this information is true or not was unknown as there was no proof.

For a thousand years, the two families had been in a small strife. That was also how Jaden had met Christine on several occasions before, it was just that they never properly established a friendship.

“What is she doing here?” Jaden was suspicious.

Half a month ago, when the Shiba Clan had their Annual Clan Assessment, the Blackwood Clan also had it during the same time as well. The Blackwood Clan was also very low-key, they didn’t let out much news.

However, since the Blackwood Clan has awakened their Bloodline Limits, they should be staying within the Clan to carefully cultivate and increase their cultivation. Why did she suddenly bring a few personal guards with her to Cloud Moon Forest?

As Jaden was being suspicious, Christine suddenly questioned in a sharp tone, “Are we still not there? Did you three idiots properly check the map? If you were to bring me to the wrong place, this young lady will not forgive you!”

“Miss, we didn’t go to the wrong place. Other than the shabby cave that we came across, there really are no other caverns. It’s possibly...it’s possibly because this map is fake…” One of the middle-aged burly men reasoned with his face filled with bitterness.

“What?” Christine’s complexion turned cold, “How could the map given to me by my father be fake? You better properly look, and if you don’t find it, then at that time, this young lady will properly teach you a lesson!”

The three middle-aged burly men wiped the sweat off their foreheads as they promptly nodded, scattering off into different directions in order to search for it.

One of the middle-aged men was walking towards the direction of Jaden.

Jaden remained as still as ever while concealing his figure. To find Jaden with the current cultivation of the middle-aged man was practically impossible. There was a qualitative difference between a Second Stage Foundation Establishment Realm practitioner and a fourth-layer Foundation Establishment Realm practitioner.

Additionally, from the brief conversation between the Blackwood Clan’s servants, Jaden was able to determine that the opposite party’s objective was the same as Aron and Albert; to search for something within Cloud Moon Forest.

Jaden was slightly curious, he wanted to see what kind of treasure they would find.

At this moment, the middle-aged man who was walking toward the direction of Jaden suddenly stopped in his tracks. He gazed toward Jaden’s location and said with a voice filled with a killing intent, “Who is it? Show yourself immediately!”

Jaden’s face slightly changed. They had actually discovered him.

*******

Ever since Jaden’s cultivation had reached the fourth-layer of the Foundation Establishment Realm, he had been very confident in concealing himself. After one has tempered their viscera, they would be able to completely control their aura. If they stopped emitting their aura, it’d be very hard for people to sense them.

At the very least, it should be impossible for a cultivator at the third-layer of Foundation Establishment Realm to discover Jaden.

Seeing that he had been discovered, Jaden felt a slight headache. However, he didn’t continue to stay silent or did he decide to escape. Instead, he chose to walk out in an open manner as he asked indifferently, “How did you discover me?”

The middle-aged man seemed slightly dumbstruck. Usually, those who had been discovered tend to seem flustered or bear killing intent. However, the expression of the young man before him was exceedingly calm. This caused him to feel amazed.

Soon after, the middle-aged man came to his senses. His face subconsciously displayed a sense of pride, “The Bloodline Limit I had awakened is named Hawkeye ’. Although its rank isn’t very high, it has the ability to sense everything within the circumference of ten meters. Your method of concealing yourself is fascinating and if you weren’t within the range of my ability, then it’d definitely be impossible for me to discover you.”

Jaden’s heart shivered. He hadn’t foreseen this.

There were many different kinds of Bloodline Limits and an infinite number of them. Although there is a clear segregation between Bloodline Limits, their abilities are different.

For example, the two brothers, Aron and Albert. Both of them had Bloodline Limits that were classified as an Offense type. The Bloodline Limit of this middle-aged man before him was classified as a Probe type.

“It seems like I will need to be more cautious in the future. I definitely can’t underestimate everyone because of my cultivation,” thought Jaden to himself. This matter could be considered as a warning.

At this moment, Christine’s angry voice resounded, “Who!? Who was following this young lady!?”

Under the escort of the other two middle-aged burly men, Christine promptly rushed over. After seeing Jaden’s figure, Christine’s originally angry expression immediately changed into one of dumbstruckness. This was due to the fact that she hadn’t expected that the person following her was Jaden.

At this moment, the three burly men swiftly surrounded Jaden with brimming killing intent. If Jaden were to make the slightest movement, the trio would launch a devastating attack in a blink of an eye.

“Jaden? How could a waste like you be following me?’ Christine thought it was inconceivable. She was filled with suspicion as she enquired, “Shouldn’t a waste like you be within the Shiba Clan properly practicing? Why were you following me?”

The expressions of the three middle-aged burly men gradually turned into one of dumbstruckness. They had never imagined that the youth who had followed them was actually the famous Jaden of Imperial City, the number one waste who had turned into the number one genius.

At the same time, the three middle-aged burly men slightly let their guard down. Their instincts told them that Jaden wouldn't be able to pose a threat to them with his first-grade Bloodline Limit and only a few months worth of cultivation.

Jaden’s expression immediately turned cold. Initially, he didn’t mind Christine, but who would’ve thought that the second she opened her mouth, she would call him waste.
