Translator: Tamon Translation Checker: Silavin Scarlet Heaven City, Blood Province. A blinding light beamed from the Heavens above and into a mansion. Three days later, an infant was born. The entire Scarlet Heaven City was shrouded in a bloody mist, and an endless bloodlust filled with thirst for death surged. The infant was glowing and translucent, brimming with unspeakable force. On his forehead shone a bright recultivation Immortal Mark. He was the Black Tortoise’s Ninth Prince, Fa Tian, reincarnated from the Upper Realm. “So, this is the Nine Province Continent.” His eyes were devoid of warmth and compassion, blocks of ice. Fa Tian had just been born, yet he had already awakened his Immortal Mark. “This body is too small.” Fa Tian’s eyes turned scarlet as he absorbed the mark’s power. His infant body grew in moments to the size of an eight-year-old. By his side were his parents in this realm, looking dumbstruck and overwhelmed. [Is this our Son? How did he grow so big all of a sudden?] Fa Tian reached out and snapped their necks with a sickening crunch, absorbing the vitality in their blood. Fa Tian felt his cultivation grow. Killing a few more dozen Mortals would be enough to enter the Qi Refining Stage, and become a cultivator. Glancing at the dried husks of the parents who brought him into this realm, Fa Tian held no emotion in his eyes, only emptiness. No one in the Lower Realm had the right to become his parents, especially not some filthy bugs. He walked out of the house, brimming with bloodlust and warmongering. He absorbed the Immortal Mark while butchering everyone in Scarlet Heaven City, all to improve his cultivation. After just half a day, Scarlet Heaven City was devoid of life, a dead city. The lives of its people were culled at the hands of Fa Tian, becoming nourishment for his cultivation, yet it only got him to the 5th Layer of the Qi Refining stage. Fa Tian was standing atop the city, overlooking the dead town. He now grew to the age of sixteen, with fiery long hair, a cold demeanour, and none of the innocence. He was a death god unleashed upon this world to kill and nothing else. He looked up as an Immortal Glow arrived. The glow faded, and Immortal Lord Shen Wu appeared. Shen Wu glanced at the Scarlet Heaven City, now thick with the stench of death, and didn’t so much as twitch. “Ninth Prince.” “Immortal Lord Shen Wu, you’re late.” “Apologies, Ninth Prince; I just left Black Tortoise Immortal Domain and rushed here. I didn’t expect your recultivation Immortal Mark to awaken so soon.” In most cases, the recultivating geniuses needed to reach the Spirit-Severing Stage before awakening the mark. In Fa Tian’s example, he did it in days from birth, shocking Shen Wu to the core. Fa Tian sneered, “This is why I wanted the Immortal Domain Stele’s approval first. Only with it will my Immortal Mark awaken so soon. The others reincarnated much sooner, but it won’t change a thing. I’ll still surpass them.” The boiling bloodlust surged like an ocean. Shen Wu had to stagger back. [Fa Tian only started recultivating, and his bloodlust is already so thick! This is the power of the Tyrant Demon Body!] Fan Tian said, “Immortal Lord Shen Wu, the other eight geniuses on the board will die at my hands. Only I am worthy of being the Domain Lord.” “The Ninth Prince’s path will reign supreme!” “Immortal Lord Shen Wu, I have a mission for you.” “At your disposal, Ninth Prince.” “With endless Immortal Domains comes countless geniuses and the Nine Province Continent is fit to become a target for recultivators, geniuses from the Upper Realm must’ve already reincarnated in this Lower Realm. Since I am now here, no one else can become Heavenly Dao Protector. “Your task is to find them all. I will kill them to the last. None shall escape the Nine Province Continent alive. “And find me the Nine Province Cauldron.” “Understood!” “Go!” Shen Wu nodded and shot out in an Immortal Glow. Fa Tian gazed in the distance, his scarlet hair blowing in the wind and his eyes flashing red. He was a reaper unleashed upon this world, and Scarlet Heaven City was just the beginning. Every city he crossed would be left barren, all life becoming fuel for Fa Tian’s cultivation. As he reached the Golden Core, he came upon some intriguing news. It regarded the Nine Province Cauldron, Heavenly Dao Protector, and Absolute Dominator Chen Changan. “A disciple contest held a month from now, in Ghost Province?” Fa Tian walked out of a once vibrant city that housed millions, leaving the dead town as he set his sights on a new target, Ghost Province!
