In the end, Arden Thane’s decision not to act came down to a single reason.

The Nine Provinces Wind and Cloud Battle.

It was an event held once every ten years, a brutal gathering that pulled warriors from all nine provinces into one place. Each Wind and Cloud Ranking sent one hundred participants. Nine hundred people in total, all fighting for just ten spots at the top.

Kael Draven, ranked third on Celestia’s Wind and Cloud Ranking, was counted as one of Celestia’s main pillars.

But hardly any

    Kael Draven gave a small nod, almost absentminded. The more he used the Nether Tiger Arm and the Divine Dragon Arm, the more they bothered him. Not in an obvious way—nothing was breaking or misfiring—but something just felt… unfinished. Like holding a sword that looked perfect, yet somehow didn’t cut the way it should.“Eldric,” he said after a moment, voice low, “if you’ve got something to say, just say it.”Eldric didn’t rush. He never did. “Master, based on the strength and mutations of those two little fellows, their fused form should be far stronger. Honestly? At least twice what you’re getting now.”Kael Draven stayed quiet. He folded his arms slightly, listening.“I’ve been watching them for a while,” Eldric went on. “The reason the Nether Tiger Arm and Divine Dragon Arm aren’t showing their full power… is simple. Neither of them has received their inheritance yet.”“Inheritance?” Kael Draven frowned, clearly not following. “What does that even mean?”It wasn’t a term he was us

  • Chapter 236: Twelve Earth Emperor Bodyguards

    The Ice–Fire Two-Headed Pythons didn’t let up for even a second.They swarmed him from every direction, one attack blending into the next like an endless storm. No gaps. No breathing room. Just pressure—constant, suffocating pressure.But this… wasn’t the same Kael Draven anymore.After merging with Cinder and Nyxar, something about him had changed. Not just stronger—different. The Divine Dragon Arm and Nether Tiger Arm didn’t feel like simple power-ups. They felt alive, almost like they had their own will.His fists kept moving.Left. Right. Again.Over and over.The moment he spotted even the smallest opening, he slammed into it with everything he had. No hesitation. No second-guessing.At first, the pythons didn’t think much of him.I mean, why would they? There were dozens of them. One human shouldn’t have been a problem.But fights have a way of changing people’s minds.As the battle dragged on, the pythons started working together. Their movements became tighter, more coordinate

    Normally? Yeah… biting through something like that would be a joke.The Ice–Fire Two-Headed Python’s body was ridiculously tough. Even if Kael Draven clenched down until his teeth cracked and his gums bled, it probably wouldn’t have done a thing.But this wasn’t normal anymore.Not even close.The python had already been battered open in dozens of places. Wounds everywhere. Blood was still pouring out like it had no intention of stopping. Kael Draven didn’t need to break through anything now—someone had already done the hard part.All he had to do was take advantage of it.So he did.Gulp… gulp…He didn’t even think about it. No hesitation, no second-guessing. Just instinct kicking in. Survival mode, plain and simple.The python kept thrashing at first, wild and violent, but you could tell it was slowing down. Too much blood loss. Its movements got weaker, less coordinated… until they weren’t really movements at all.Just a few shaky tremors.Then nothing.Its two massive heads droppe

  • Chapter 234: You Forced My Hand

    The Ice-Fire Two-Headed Python had been thrashing around for what felt like a solid half hour.Even for a monster like this… it was starting to wear down.That was when Kael Draven finally moved.The Divine Dragon Arm lit up instantly.No hesitation. Not even a breath of delay. Every bit of strength in his body surged into his fist. And when he struck, it came down like a falling mountain.It slammed straight into the python’s flesh.Boom.Blood erupted.Not a trickle. Not even a spray.A full-blown fountain.Thick, violent streams of snake blood shot into the air like geysers, splattering the ground in a horrifying red mess.For a second, Kael Draven just stood there.Frozen.He looked at his own arm, eyes filled with disbelief.Since when did my Divine Dragon Arm get this strong?But there was no time to dwell on it.The injured python snapped.It went completely berserk.Its massive body whipped and twisted like a storm had taken physical form, shaking the ground so violently it fe

  • Chapter 233: Man vs. Python

    Leave. Now.Kael Draven didn’t need to think twice. With the strength he had right now, facing the Ice-Fire Two-Headed Python head-on was basically asking to die.So he ran.The instant the thought formed, he spun around and bolted toward the forest, lungs burning as he pushed himself to the limit.It didn’t matter.The Ice-Fire Two-Headed Python was far too fast.Before Kael Draven could even put real distance between them, the massive creature surged forward. Its enormous body ripped through the air, swallowing the sky like a moving mountain.Those eyes—cold, merciless, full of contempt—locked onto him. The twin heads hissed, tongues flicking in and out as venom splattered across the ground.It was already on him.Kael Draven felt his heart sink. He knew it right away. There was no escaping this thing. Speed meant nothing in front of such a monster.Since he had to fight anyway… what was the point of running?A curse flared in his chest.He turned sharply, muscles tightening, and sh

  • Chapter 232: Killed with a Single Punch

    Corpse Bone Mountain.It stood at the border between Celestia and Dawnvale—south of the mountain lay Celestia, while the land to the north belonged to Dawnvale.There was no way around it.Anyone traveling from Celestia to Dawnvale had to pass through Corpse Bone Mountain. The same was true in reverse. No detours. No shortcuts.And because of that, it had earned a name that struck fear into the hearts of warriors everywhere.The hell of warriors.Rumor had it that out of every hundred warriors who entered Corpse Bone Mountain, fewer than ten ever made it out alive. Inside, bones littered the ground so densely that calling it a mountain of corpses wouldn’t have been an exaggeration—it was simply the truth.Outside Corpse Bone Mountain.After listening to Jack Holden’s explanation, Kael Draven let out a quiet sigh. He hadn’t expected such a place to exist right at the boundary between two great provinces.“Brother Jasper,” he asked after a moment, frowning slightly, “how exactly do warr
