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.

Arrival

Outside, the putrid, blood-tainted air was so tense, one could cut straight through it with a knife.

Liam could see it. 

The desperation on the Couragists' faces as they left their huts in unison. 

They didn't even smash their gauntlets against the ground as they did the first time. 

Liam also saw the confidence on the Fearists' faces. 

That wasn't good.

Overconfidence was idiotic and dangerous.

It made people think they were greater, smarter, better than they actually were. 

Was Liam overconfident?

Of course not!

But he knew exactly what his capabilities were. And all his actions were based on that. 

He was confident.

Not overconfident.

There was a big difference!

Nevertheless, that wasn't the point.

Ryu, Jane, Verium, Kitsu and the rest of the Elders gathered around Liam and hid him from view. 

To everyone else, he was just another person in the crowd.
