Born in Blood

His mother died when she gave birth to him, his father a physically abusive alcoholic. Life is not kind to Darius King. Darius would have dreams of being in a world of magic, but alas, his dreams would always end. He hated life, and life hated him, so he ended both his and his father's. When reincarnating into a peasant-like lifestyle as Liam, in the town of Ucladd, Darius realizes he has entered the world of cultivation! With his ambitious, ruthless, and curious nature combining into one, he paves a bloody path to power. Shifting his gaze from the Earth towards the Sky, nothing will stop him on his path for strength. "I will touch the stars... or die trying." ==================== Note: NO R-18, R**e, Romance or pre-marital handholding. I take no pleasure in writing such things. There's a bunch of killing and gruesome descriptions though. The novel is a bit slow in the first chapters, but after that, it picks up and gets significantly better. Also, the power system is similar to BotDS, but I've asked the author for permission to use it. It's also heavily inspired my writing, but the beginning is where its most prevalent.

Please comment if you want me to take it down.

One Thousand

What Liam saw made him curse slowly in confusion.

Boulders.

Just boulders.

Massive boulders lined up as far as the eye could see.

'One, two, three, four…'

Liam began rapidly counting. The more he counted, the more his eyes widened.

'One… thousand.'

One thousand boulders were lined side to side, as far as the eye could see. They were placed atop a thin pole that somehow managed to hold them up.

The boulders were perfectly smooth. They were marble white and shimmered under the fake sun above. 

The fake dimension had been narrowed down to only 50 meters side to side. 

The boulders were positioned to be both to the left and right of Liam.

"Split them in half within the allotted time."

Liam's eyes widened.

Allotted time?

Liam raised his head. 

Above him was a timer, and each time a second ticked down, it made a ting noise.

12 hours.
