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.

Qualities

"I have to note that you won't naturally get stronger just because you kill more things," Kerian said. "But fighting against stronger opponents might force you to evolve." 

Liam looked disappointed.

"In fact, when you awaken your core, your Path will take some time to develop and make it into something of your own. It took 31 years of being a Zenith just for unique traces of my Path to appear… and I'm considered above average."

That didn't make Liam worry too much. 

If there was anything Liam had, it was time.

Right now, he was roughly 30 years old.

But he was nearing 31.

But the resources, opportunities and reach that he had was nothing short of amazing. Of course, it was no match for Royalty or the big-hitters. But Liam outgrew the nobles of Echoria by a lot.

For the next few minutes, Liam listened intently as Kerian explained Paths on a deeper level.
