For days, Kaelen hunted relentlessly through the vast Wild Forest.
Blood, torn flesh, and beast cores from the savage creatures he felled fueled his cultivation. Each strike, each kill, sharpened him—body, mind, and soul.
Three days later, deep in a misty, fetid marsh, a silver-scaled, eight-armed monstrosity screeched as Kaelen’s sword pierced its heart. The creature crashed to the ground, lifeless.
Calmly, Kaelen retrieved its core, rinsed it, and swallowed it whole.
Boom!
Demonic essence surged through him, spreading like wildfire through his limbs and bones, converging in his spiritual core, feeding his true energy.
Crack!
A formidable aura erupted.
Third Heaven of the True Martial Realm.
In just days, Kaelen had leapt two realms. His cultivation had skyrocketed at a pace that would stun anyone who witnessed it.
Beast cores were toxic to humans; their essence clashed violently with true energy. One wrong move, and death was guaranteed. Yet Kaelen defied the rules. He refined, absorbed, and converted that power to ascend.
A miracle born from the Divine Art of Creation—true creation itself.
It transformed his vital energy into something boundless, capable of integrating all things, like the ocean swallowing every river. His body became a furnace, absorbing power from any attribute, any race.
But… I still need more time before stepping into the First Heaven of the Divine Art of Creation, he murmured, eyes gleaming.
Suddenly, a cruel, mocking voice broke the silence from the trees.
“There you are, brat!”
Killing intent thickened the air.
“You stole from the Frostfang Mercenaries Group and fled into the Purple Cloud Mountains? You’re finished!”
Kaelen frowned. “What are you talking about? I’ve never stolen a thing.”
Armored men emerged from the jungle, faces twisted with bloodlust. Leading them were the two mercenaries he had humiliated outside Ravenhollow Tower.
Cold clarity settled in Kaelen’s eyes.
They’re framing me. Falsely accusing me of marking me for death.
A bitter laugh escaped him. “I never wanted bloodshed… but since you’ve forced my hand, I’ll oblige.”
Thud. Thud. Thud.
His footsteps echoed through the mist, each one a promise of lethal intent.
Boom!
A surge of true energy erupted, waves radiating from his body.
“What?! Third Heaven of the True Martial Realm?!”
The mercenaries froze. Just three days ago, he had barely reached the First Heaven. How…?
“Don’t panic! There are dozens of us!” one shouted. “Kill him! Anyone who provokes the Frostfang Mercenaries must die!”
A dozen blades gleamed as they charged. Kaelen didn’t flinch. A slight, deadly smile curved his lips.
“Fools. If you want to die, then come.”
Steel flashed. The rusted blade from the elder sliced the air like lightning.
Puchi!
A Third Heaven warrior barely reacted before his throat was pierced. Instant death.
Boom!
Steel rained from all directions.
“Divine Art of Creation—activate!” Kaelen roared.
“Battle Body of Creation!”
His left hand transformed—bronze and metallic, gleaming with divine light. Blades shattered on contact. The mercenaries gawked in shock.
“So it begins… the First Heaven of the Divine Art of Creation.”
His father’s words echoed: each Heaven awakens innate power, transforming the practitioner into an indestructible vessel. The First Heaven’s mark: the Bronze Battle Body. Every inch of flesh, bone, and meridian strengthened—harder than iron, tougher than steel.
Kaelen laughed, low and cold. “You came to kill me… but you’ve only brought yourselves to death.”
The Bronze Battle Body was overwhelming. Martial artists at the True Martial Realm could no longer harm him. Panic rippled. The Frostfang Mercenaries tried to flee.
Kaelen’s voice cut through the mist.
“You think you can run now, after I came to your doorstep?”
His eyes gleamed with lethal intent.
“Bright Moon Sword Technique!
Grandmastery Essence! Endless Sword Rain!”Clang! Clang! Clang!
Sword shadows rained down, sealing every escape. Warriors screamed as blades pierced them. Within moments, only the two who had falsely accused Kaelen remained.
With a thunderous step, he appeared before them.
“Please… have mercy! Spare me!” one begged.
The blade flashed. His throat split. Blood sprayed.
“I gave you a chance,” Kaelen said coldly. “You chose not to cherish it.”
The last mercenary quaked. “This… this was just the vanguard! Our captain and deputies are deeper in the mountains! They’re peak Ninth Heaven experts! And our captain… Spirit Martial Realm! You’re dead, brat!”
Before he could finish, Kaelen’s sword silenced him.
“A Spirit Martial Realm cultivator…” Kaelen’s gaze sharpened. Though dominant over True Martial Realm warriors, a Spirit Martial powerhouse was another level entirely.
Suddenly… Buzz!
A transformation stirred. Wonder filled his eyes.
The Bronze Battle Body—fully awakened.
From head to toe, his body shimmered bronze. Even hair and pupils gleamed metallic under the sun.
“That battle pushed me to a full breakthrough… my first innate talent is about to awaken.”
Behind him, in the void, a massive ancient furnace materialized.
“What… my first talent is a furnace?” Kaelen muttered.
He recalled his father, Emperor Therion Viremont, whose first talent was the divine Heavenly Tribulation Sword.
Heaven mocking me…?
Boom!
A suction force erupted from the furnace. True energy from the dead mercenaries streamed in—devoured, refined, transformed into pure cultivation energy.
Kaelen’s cultivation surged—three minor realms at once. Sixth Heaven of the True Martial Realm.
The Creation Furnace could devour anything: spiritual stones, divine herbs, the essence of sun and moon, even life force. A torrent of ancient knowledge surged into his mind.
“This… furnace is terrifying. Its devouring ability is unmatched.”
Voices echoed from the forest. “Captain! Fighting ahead—might’ve caught the thief!”
Kaelen vanished like a wraith, avoiding the Spirit Martial Realm captain.
The Purple Cloud Mountains are vast… let’s see if you can find me again.
At the vanguard battlefield, Kael Draven, captain of the Frostfang Mercenaries, roared:
“Mobilize all forces! Hunt that brat! 500,000 coin bounty—dead or alive!”
And so the hunt began.

Chapter 46: Dream
Inside the quiet room, Nangong Muxue’s face was still a little wet. Not from sadness anymore, though. That part had already passed.Now it was just relief. And happiness. The kind you get after finally finding something you thought you lost forever.She stayed close to Kaelen Viremont, almost refusing to let go. Like if she loosened her grip even a little, he’d vanish again.Kaelen didn’t rush her. He just gently ran his fingers through her black hair.His voice was soft.“Xue’er… how did you find me?”Nangong Muxue slowly lifted her head. Her eyes were bright again, that familiar liveliness returning bit by bit. There was even a hint of pride in them.“I saw Brother Kaelen through the Great Thousand Mirror.”She paused, thinking back.“After that, I searched for everything I could. I checked all the new student records of Sea God Academy. And eventually… I found out you were here.”Her voice lowered a little.“So I came immediately.”Kaelen looked at her quietly for a moment, then re
Chapter 445: Primordial Secrets
Kaelen Viremont didn’t come to Sea God Academy for glory. Not for status either. And honestly, not even for power.It was something simpler than that.A promise.One he had made a long time ago… to a girl he never forgot.Nangong Muxue.Even now, the image of her still drifted in his memory sometimes. A plain white dress, soft eyes, that calm, almost unreal way she looked at him. Like she trusted him more than she should’ve.That promise… was why he was here.But reality rarely cares about promises.“Nangong Muxue?”Yi Qingge repeated the name slowly, thinking for a moment. Then he shook his head.“I’m afraid I’ve never heard of her. Sea God Academy has hundreds of thousands of students. Not even counting elders and instructors. Finding one person here… isn’t easy.”Kaelen didn’t respond right away.Just a small pause.A flicker of disappointment crossed his eyes—but it didn’t stay long.He already understood.This place wasn’t a sect. It was a world. A massive one. Searching for a si
Chapter 444: Student Rankings
After crossing the end of the Heavenly Light Path, Kaelen Viremont, Glacien, and the rest of the chosen geniuses finally stepped into Sea God Academy.And the moment they arrived… everything felt different.Not just “different” like a new place. More like stepping into an entirely separate world.Mountains stretched endlessly into the horizon, like giant sleeping dragons resting across the land. Between them stood grand palaces, jade-like towers, and floating pavilions hanging calmly in mid-air. White clouds drifted through the structures as they belonged there, slow and peaceful, almost unreal.Honestly… it looked like something out of a dream.Everywhere, disciples moved through the air. Some stood on flying swords, slicing through the sky like it was nothing. Others simply floated without any visible support, calm as ever. And each of them… carried a strong, steady aura.This wasn’t just a sect.It was a whole world.Yi Qingge walked ahead and started explaining as they moved.“Our
Chapter 443: He Who Wishes to Wear the Crown
That pressure from above… it felt like the sky itself had decided to fall.A giant black hand ripped through the heavens, dragging destruction with it. The air literally screamed under it. Space twisted, bent, cracked—like reality was saying, yeah, I can’t handle this anymore.Even the ninth-level Life Seizing Realm experts from the major factions felt it. Their expressions changed instantly. Instincts screamed one thing only.Danger.Pure, overwhelming danger.And right under that collapsing sky stood Kaelen Viremont.The target.In the next moment, that terrifying force came down on him.Kaelen’s eyes sharpened.No hesitation—he activated his Glazed Battle Body.Golden light exploded across his skin, forming a radiant shield. But the instant the black hand slammed into it—Crack.His body felt like glass under pressure. Fine cracks spread across his defense like shattered porcelain.Pain surged through every vein.If his body had been even slightly weaker… he would’ve been gone righ
Chapter 442: The Black Giant Hand
That girl in the white dress… she kept showing up in Kaelen Viremont’s mind.Pure white fabric, soft like mist. Her bright eyes were always a little too lively for this brutal world. And that faint warmth she gave off whenever she looked at him—yeah, that kind of thing doesn’t just disappear easily.For a rare moment, something softened at the corner of Kaelen’s lips. Not much. Just a trace.“I choose to enter Sea God Academy.”Simple words. Calm voice. But there was something final in it—like the decision was already locked in place and no one could shake it anymore.The crowd reacted immediately.Sea God Academy.Just hearing the name was enough to make people’s expressions change.Even the black-robed elder from the Netherworld Demon Sect didn’t look surprised. If anything, it felt like he’d already expected this from the start.Sea God Academy wasn’t just another faction. It was the number one martial holy land in the Southern Region. For countless geniuses, it was the end goal. T
Chapter 441: The Heavenly Dao of Slaughter
Right then, Kaelen Viremont stood there like a young emperor who had just stepped down into the mortal world.The air around him… it was weird. Like it didn’t want to move anymore. Even space itself felt tight, trembling under his presence. That pressure he gave off wasn’t just “strong”—it was suffocating. Even Life Seizing Realm experts had their breathing turn heavy.And it wasn’t only about power.It was authority.A presence that made weaker souls feel like dropping to their knees was the most natural thing in the world.The entire battlefield went silent.Even the wind—seriously—didn’t dare to blow too hard.Liethan’s face had already gone pale. That arrogant expression from before? Gone. Completely wiped out.Now, all he felt was pressure. Crushing pressure.Standing in front of Kaelen Viremont, he suddenly understood something painfully clear… he was nothing. Not even close. Like a candle trying to compare itself with the sun. Not even worth mentioning.An Emperor-level genius.
