Chapter 1

Chapter 1 The Spirit of a Youth

A hellhole prison was located near the border of Salleria.

It was built hundreds of floors underground, and just like a ghastly beast with a huge mouth, it wanted to swallow everything around it.

The prison was deprived of light all year round. It was dim and damp. Furthermore, as one went further down, the surroundings became darker and colder. When they finally reached the deepest end, they were greeted with intense cold and pitch-black darkness.

Even if a candle was lit, it would only be a faint gleam. The darkness emitted a sense of despair as if it would swallow a person whole at any time.

At that moment, a shrill but subtle noise echoed intermittently along the dark corridor, coming from the deepest end of the hellhole prison. It sounded like a banshee's wail, so mournful that it made one's hair stand on end.

"Obeying God's order… The emperor issued an imperial edict…"

"His Imperial Majesty crowned an heir to the seat. To celebrate, he’s granting total amnesty…"

"The prisoner, Caspian Montgomery... Will restore his status as a prince… travel to Astren… marriage of convenience…"

"Embark on the journey tomorrow…"

"These are the words of the emperor…"

After reading the imperial edict, the eunuch arrogantly looked at the young man, whose arms were hung by iron chains. Then, he smirked. "Congratulations, Your Royal Highness. You should've been sentenced to death for conspiring against the monarch, yet you're pardoned a year later. I'm envious of your great luck."

Even though he addressed Caspian as Your Royal Highness, by congratulating him and saying he was envious of him, a fool could tell how cynical his tone was.

"Oh? Is that so?" In the dark, Caspian Montgomery lowered his head. His long hair fell on his sides and covered his cheeks. No one could see his expression, but that did not stop him from questioning," Eunuch Fischer, don't you know well why I’d commit treason?"

Morris Fischer was the eunuch in question, and when he heard Caspian's words, his face immediately fell. Then, as if there were ants in his pants, Morris was startled and shouted, "What are you talking about? Shut up!"

Then, he hurriedly glanced at the jailers and imperial guards who followed him, afraid that they would pick up any clues.

Caspian sniggered, and he calmly said, "I entered the first stage of the True Martial Realm when I was six at Blue Mountain, where I bare-handedly killed packs of twenty-six wolves, protecting the safety of the people. When I was eight, I reached the second stage of the True Martial Realm. I went to the Lunar Valley with only one sword in my hand, and I wiped out the oppressive tyrants. In total, I've killed seven hundred and sixty of them from the Dark Zephyr Bandits. With that, I've opened the access of trade routes that connect the north and west of Salleria, which benefits thousands of families."

He continued, "At eleven, I attained the third stage of True Martial Realm. With a gun in my hand, I managed to suppress the Northwest Turban Rebellion and beheaded three thousand four hundred and eighteen of them. Since then, there have been no more internal troubles in Salleria, bringing peace to the whole country. That year, I was named as the crown prince."

"When I was eleven, I entered the fourth stage of the True Martial Realm. The borders were enveloped in flames of wars, I led Salleria's army of fierce fighters and fend off the enemies, beheaded our enemy's generals, and captured their flags. After that, I commanded the troop to go up north. Although we met an impasse, we were able to destroy Astren's strong soldiers, killing three hundred thousand of them. Later, we attacked Astren's capital, forced their emperor to abdicate and submit to us."

"I'm sixteen this year, and despite conspiring against the monarch, I'm still alive. Just as Eunuch Fischer said, my luck is indeed great."

Hearing those, Morris's face was ashen. He yelled many times, asking Caspian to shut up. Nonetheless, his shrill screams were like kicks against the pricks, useless in front of Caspian's soft voice and calm tone.

As Caspian continued describing, Morris's expression turned uglier.

Finally, when Caspian finished his speech, the jail room was as quiet as the grave.

Although Caspian was still locked in iron chains, wearing a thin and shabby prison uniform along with a frail appearance due to the one-year imprisonment, his aura was still imperious and terrifying to everyone in the cell!

Morris was horrified, and his breathing got heavier. In his eyes there was nothing but panic as he stuttered, "Caspian, stop spurting nonsense! Do you think that I'll be afraid of you just because you've restored your status as a prince? On the contrary, you've committed a crime against the emperor, started a rebellion, and conspired against the state. Moreover, you stained the palace with your licentious behavior…"

Morris appeared threatening, but he was secretly frightened. However, before he could finish his sentence, Caspian, whose head hung low the whole time, suddenly looked at Morris.

His eyes were bright like the stars and deep as the night. It was as they instantly illuminated the furthest prisoner cell in this hellhole prison.

Caspian's gaze was sharp like blades pressing against Morris's throat, and he suddenly felt suffocated.

The terrifying moment suddenly turned the surroundings incomparably icy. Just like a thunder's crackling, it sent chills down Morris's spine and made his blood run cold.

"The people supported me, the court councilors obeyed me, and my prestige was unparalleled in the military. Besides, I’m already the crown prince, and the throne would be mine sooner or later. Under such circumstances, why’d I return with the troops in triumph for the celebratory banquet after winning a great war and kill my father, the emperor, and try to usurp the seat? Morris, don't you know the reason best!"

The last sentence was no longer a question but a roar. Then, just like a clap of thunder, it shocked Morris and the other present. Their ears buzzed, and they were in a trance.

While everyone was still panicking, Caspian slowly stood up.

In that instant, everyone was in awe of his upright stance, as if he was a spear that could pierce through the heavens!

It seemed that one year of imprisonment in the hellhole prison did nothing to him! Instead, it sharpened him further, and he could now puncture a hole through the sky!

"Unlock the chains!" Caspian growled. The jailer at the side trembled, and he dared not to resist Caspian. Then, he moved forward and took out the keys to the iron chains.

"No. Don't —" Morris was dumbfounded, but he soon regained his senses. Unfortunately, he was so scared out of his wits that he forgot the purpose of this visit.

Before he even finished his sentence, a crips clunking noise could be heard in the air. The sound was from the falling iron chains that were used to lock Caspian's limbs.

"You said that my luck’s great, but no matter how good it is, it's not comparable to yours, Eunuch Fischer."

Next, Caspian moved his hands and legs around as he approached Morris. "The unknown eunuch that exposed my conspiracy against the state suddenly soared into such a high rank. "

Seeing that the person in front of him was smiling, but his eyes were filled with frost. Morris was so petrified that his expression was twisted. Then, he retreated step by step, stuttering, "No… That's not it. His Majesty and His Royal Highness—"

Nonetheless, Morris hurriedly covered his mouth, stopping himself from saying more. The corners of his eyes were twitching, and he wished he could swallow back those words he said just now.

If he exposed such a big secret, then his death would be unthinkable.

Caspian laughed softly as if it was as he expected. The next second, he immediately raised his hand and slapped Morris.

Morris was still in a daze when he felt a wind blowing on his face. It suffocated him.

As he turned his head to look over, he saw a palm getting closer to him, occupying his whole line of sight.

Smack!

The sound was so loud as if a hammer weighing a hundred kilograms fell to the ground.

Morris's entire face was crooked midair, and half of his teeth fell from his gum. The mixture of fresh blood, salvia, and his broken teeth flew out of his mouth, like scattered leaves being blown by the autumn breeze.

His body heavily slammed onto the wall and slowly slid down.

However, a ghastly sight of the horrifying blood trail could be seen on the damp and slippery wall.

The jailers and imperial guards that wanted to rush forward immediately widened their eyes in shock. Then, each of them gasped as their face was ashen, and it appeared that they did not dare to take a step forward anymore as they retreated without hesitation.

With a faint smile on his face, Caspian lowered his head and looked at the bloody Morris. It was as if Caspian was celebrating for Morris as he asked, "My strength just now was only one percent of my actual ability. If I weren't drugged, you'd be dead. Eunuch Fischer, don't you think your luck’s great too?"

Half of Morris's head was drenched in blood, and he only felt his head buzzing as if there were thousands of mad bees flying in disarray. Moreover, he was seeing stars, and there was nothing but the intense taste of blood in his mouth.

Through his blurry eyesight, Morris could vaguely see Caspian tearing his prison uniform. Then, he grabbed the black cloak the imperial guard brought along and put it on. In an instant, Caspian blended in with the darkness around them.

After that, Morris felt a leg stepping on his face. It was as if Caspian wanted to push his head into the soil.

At this moment, Morris was overwhelmed with fear and regret.

"Eunuch Fischer, I'll spare your life so that you can pass my words to the fellow sitting on the throne."

Out of resentment for his son and afraid that he would threaten his throne, he did not hesitate to frame and impute Caspian. Hence, that man was no longer worthy of being regarded as his father.

Caspian's voice was as calm as always.

"A year ago, I subdued Astren. I'm too lazy to care as to why it ended up like this now. However, if he wants me to agree to the marriage of convenience, then he must agree to three conditions."

What happened to the original writer of this book? The new writer is a far cry from the first one in terms of style, creativity, dialogue and story telling. He has turned a once very arresting story into a very boring one. It is sad.

Even if i still read it, this book stopped being interesting after Grand pure emperor was killed...(that is ch. 2200 maybe) It is like realms are only introduced after he reaches a peak of the previous. There is nothing special about these realms and there is nothing special about the book anymore.

Chapter 2 The Gentle Maid
Feeling that Caspian’s force gradually increased, Morris could not endure the burning pain. He hoarsely begged, "Your Highness, please… Please continue." At that time, he was not as arrogant and complacent as before."Firstly, bring me my mother's belongings. Especially her favorite pair of earrings from when she was alive.""Sure! Yes!" Morris hurriedly nodded."Secondly, I had a personal maid, Penny. I knew that from that day onward, she was shunned into the concubine's palace residence. Bring her over. If I go to Astren, I'm bringing her along."Although Morris appeared to agree with Caspian's requests, he secretly thought of an incomparably rancor idea. Since Caspian taught him a lesson to his heart content, then he would make sure Caspian would never see Penny again! Morris planned to kill that brat and simply found a reason to evade responsibility. He could say that Penny was long dead! When that happened, he wanted to see what Caspian would do to him! Morris secretly fel

Chapter 3 A Mother's Note
Then, Penny hid behind the screen and wiped her body dry. After that, she changed into a clean white dress and patted her warm cheeks. Penny flashed a smile at Caspian and hurriedly ran outside. Not long after, she came running back again.She returned with a tray in her hand.Penny did not know what Caspian wanted, but she noticed his gaze froze when he saw the tray.When the imposing aura earned from combating with impressive armies suddenly burst out, the atmosphere in the room instantly became rigid.Penny could not help but shiver.Nonetheless, it was only an instinctive reaction for her to be afraid of the fearful aura, and she was not fearful of Caspian.After all, Penny believed that Caspian would never hurt her."Just leave it there. Rest early tonight as we need to leave early in the morning tomorrow." Caspian felt Penny's discomfort, so he dispersed the momentum and waved his hands at Penny."Your Highness, do you need me—" Penny bit her lips, and her cheeks were as

Chapter 4 Fifth Stage of the True Martial Realm
Caspian, my son… When you finally read these words, I’m afraid that I'm no longer by your side.These Earrings of Echo and Tower of Life are the final gifts that I can leave you with.

Chapter 5 Time Warp Zone
As time slowly ticked, the blood in the pool also gradually lessened.Finally, when Caspian absorbed the last drop of Sea-Breaker Beast's blood, he opened his eyes.In that instant, an invisible aura suddenly burst out.Then, he heard rumbling sounds of thunder in the atmosphere surrounding him.Caspian jumped up, raising his hand, and gave a punch.Bang! As if there was a sudden clap of thunder on the ground, Caspian punched through the air.Then, he raised his foot and made a sweeping motion. Swoosh! Just like an iron whip, the air in his surroundings vibrated, and he could even see the ripple with his own eyes."I've only restored myself to the first stage of the True Martial Realm — Introduction, yet I can feel my strength, and the changes in my muscles and bones are better than when I'm in the second stage!"Caspian's eyes lit up in excitement."Just like what mom said… My body isn’t only healed, but my strength is also quickly recovering. Moreover, I'll be much stronge

Chapter 6 Demon Python Form
The teacher Carson mentioned slowly made his way forward.Even though the flames of the candles in the room were not swaying, the darkness seemed to have replaced the light.Carson's expression remained unchanged, but his pupils were slightly constricted.After a while, a raspy voice sounded from beneath the black robe, "Your handwriting has innumerable twists and turns. Moreover, the Yin energy’s denser than the Yang energy."Carson laughed. "Teacher, you could've directly said that I'm an overthinker and also a shrewd."The man in a black robe scoffed, seemingly agreeing to Carson.Soon, the smile on Carson's face gradually disappeared. Next, a ruthless expression that did not match his age suddenly appeared between his eyes. His voice seemed colder as he uttered word by word, "However, don't you forget, teacher. I'm the one who's residing in the Eastern Palace, and I'm also the one who has obtained the great opportunity. On the other hand, death is knocking on Caspian's door!"

Chapter 7 The Strangulation of an Angered Dragon
The eunuch waited for Caspian to continue his sentence, but he did not say anything. That made the eunuch break out in a sweat.Then, the eunuch gathered his courage and secretly took a peek at Caspian. However, he was not even looking at him. Instead, Caspian looked at the tower in the distance."Tell her that if she does this again, and if she's within ten kilometers of me, I'll chop off her head." Caspian let out cold laughter, turned around, and got into the carriage. He did not show himself anymore after that."Yes! Surely, Your Highness!" The eunuch was shaking like a leaf in the hurricane. He instantly knelt and repeatedly kowtowed. Then, after getting Caspian's permission, he hurriedly rode on his horse and left.At this moment, on the tower opposite Caspian, a pale yellow silhouette hid behind a pilaster, secretly glancing in his direction.The silhouette had a curvy outline with an alluring grace. Her fine black hair fell on her side, emitting light luster.Even though

Chapter 8 Outside the Border
Caspian was dripping with sweat in the Time Warp Zone on the second floor of the Tower of Life.He twisted his waist like a stretched bowstring, and as he was full of stored energy. He suddenly rushed forward, causing the air to be filled with oppressive ear-piercing explosions. The next second, Caspian extended his hands and the air around him vibrated as if it were a vicious and boiling liquid."The Strangulation of an Angered Dragon!" With a roar, Caspian's fingers turned into claws. Then, just like a dragon rushing to the sea, Caspian ruthlessly grabbed the statue's head right in front of him.As if the statue's head was made from gelatin, Caspian's fingers easily pierced through it.Next, Caspian whistled softly, and immense energy suddenly surged out from his arms.A series of crackling sounds came from his arms, and the majestic power swiftly reached his palms and fingers.Bang! With the loud sound, the statue's head was instantly exploded into pieces, leaving only a

Chapter 9 Soul Snatcher, Grim Reaper
The duo did not answer but continued to walk toward them.An unsettling emotion swiftly spread in the guards.The leading guard facing the duo directly also felt an imposing pressure coming at him, causing him to quiver.Finally, the duo stopped in their tracks and stood a few meters away from everyone. The plump guy swept his gaze across everyone and finally fixed his eyes on Caspian, saying, "We’re Soul Snatcher and Grim Reaper, and we're ordered to take away Caspian's life, a criminal of Salleria.""Soul Snatcher and Grim Reaper!"The guards at the scene instantly exclaimed, and their faces were pale.Even Penny could not help but tremble.Everyone knew that Soul Snatcher and Grim Reaper were Salleria's infamous killer duo. Unfortunately, none of their targets managed to escape their deadly grasp.Hence, no one knew what Soul Snatcher and Grim Reaper looked like either.Nonetheless, they would have never expected that two figures, who were like Hell's messengers, would appe

Chapter 10 It's Your Turn
"Go further behind. This will end soon." Caspian smiled gently at Penny.Penny bit her lips, and she retreated about ten meters away.She was well aware that with her capabilities, she would not be of any help if she kept sticking around near Caspian. She might even distract him further and become a burden as he would want to protect her.Even though she stood a distance away from them, Penny did not have the intention to run away.If Caspian died, she would not want to live anymore either.When Caspian turned to look at Soul Snatcher, his expression already turned cold."I think there's no need for that yet. After all, I have things to do and people to protect." Then, Caspian held the Meteorite Sword in front of him.Although his voice was not loud, Penny could hear his words.In an instant, Penny's heart was filled with warmth, and she thought Caspian was brave."What a fool! Do you think you're still the same martial art genius as before!" Soul Snatcher roared and hit his f
