Jaidon wasn’t afraid of causing trouble at all, but he was afraid of causing trouble for no reason.
Even if she was a beauty, Jaidon had to think of a way to maximize his benefits.
At the very least, he could not lose out on himself.
“Alright!” Not long after, the white-robed beauty agreed and handed Jaidon a porcelain bottle and a jade slip.
“Take this jade slip to the Heavenly Sword Sect. This is the payment for you, a Small Revitalizing Pill.”
Jaidon opened the porcelain bottle and saw a white Small Revitalizing Pill inside. His face lit up with joy.
He did not expect her to be a rich lady.
After he obtained the title of Alchemist Apprentice, he had learned a lot more about alchemy.
The medicinal pill before him was a Level-two medicinal pill. Jaidon estimated that after devouring it, he would be able to obtain several thousand Devouring points.
He’d earned it.
Seeing that Jaidon was smiling so widely, the woman in white was instantly displeased.
“Hey, did you hear me or not? This jade slip is very precious. You absolutely cannot lose it.”
Jaidon waved his hand. “Got it.”
He was clearly distracted. The white-robed woman was about to explode from anger. She had never seen someone like this before.
What was it called again? Yes, it was a case of forgetting lust for profit.
If she were to meet this guy again, she would definitely teach him a lesson.
Suddenly, an air-piercing sound came from behind. The white-robed woman’s expression suddenly changed as she hurriedly said, “Leave quickly, there are people catching up.”
“What level are they at?”
If their cultivation levels were lower, Jaidon might be able to help.
“The peak of Battle General…”
The smile on Jaidon’s face suddenly froze. He then activated Devouring Golden Body, his movement technique, and Wind Chasing Leopard Bloodline to escape like the wind. He only left behind one sentence—
“Miss, hold them off for me for now. I will definitely deliver the item. We will meet again!”
His voice grew further and further away. After a few breaths, Jaidon’s figure disappeared.
Only the woman in white was left in frustration.
It wasn’t that he was afraid, but the disparity in their levels was just too great.
Shane Warden, a mid-stage Battle General, was already able to thrash Jaidon, let alone someone a few levels higher. Wasn’t that just asking for his life?
At the very least, the current Jaidon was incapable of fighting back.
After running a long distance, Jaidon finally stopped to rest.
He first devoured the Small Revitalizing Pill and obtained 2,000 points.
Then, he took out the jade slip.
“Deliver it to the Heavenly Sword Sect…”
Jaidon was extremely familiar with this sect.
Jaidon was once an outer disciple of the Heavenly Sword Sect.
Unfortunately, he was crippled by a fellow disciple bribed by the prince and then expelled from the Heavenly Sword Sect.
Cripples had no right to stay in the Heavenly Sword Sect. This was the last sentence of the deacon who had chased him out.
Jaidon would definitely repay this debt to the sect.
However, now was not the time!
Jaidon arrived at the Demonic Beast Canyon. There was a river flowing with essence energy. Naturally, there were countless demonic beasts on either side of the river.
His objective on this trip was precisely these demonic beasts.
…
Five days later, Jaidon hid beneath the river flow, holding his breath.
An alert Early-Stage Level-three demonic beast was slowly walking towards the river.
It was a Black Armored Turtle with extremely powerful defensive abilities.
Because he had alerted the enemy earlier, Jaidon had no choice but to wait for his prey to take the bait.
If it were not for the fact that the Black Armored Turtle’s shell was too hard, he would have long since attacked it. Previously, Jaidon had slashed at the Black Armored Turtle tens of times, causing a crack to appear on his sword. Yet, the Black Armored Turtle was unscathed.
The Black Armored Turtle seemed to be extremely sensitive to its surroundings. It shook its huge head and looked around in confusion, but it did not discover any danger.
Jaidon, who was hiding underwater, was overjoyed. With the help of the pushing force, his body erupted with unparalleled speed.
“Wave Breaker Swordsmanship!”
It was a sword-type martial art in the Booker Family’s Scroll Storage room. Jaidon had spent hundreds of Devouring points to learn it.
Swoosh!
The sword pierced through the water and stabbed the Black Armored Turtle’s head, instantly killing it.
This was already the 300th type of Demonic Beast. In the past few days, Jaidon had killed so many creatures that his hands had gone soft, and his combat experience had been rising rapidly.
However, it was a pity that he had yet to achieve a breakthrough to become a Battle Master.
He was already very powerful, but he was still unable to break through.
“System, what’s going on? Why can’t I break through?”
Could it be that the system had a flaw that prevented him from breaking through the level of a Battle Apprentice?
That was impossible! Even the Heavenly Axe could be bought, so there was no way there would be such a fatal restriction!
“Should we cancel the blocked heavenly tribulation?”
Jaidon: …
“What does this mean? Where did this heavenly tribulation come from?”
Jaidon was completely confused. Wasn’t I just asking why I couldn’t break through?
Was the system trying to kill me?
Was it unhappy with me?
“Because the host’s soul is incompatible with this world, every major breakthrough requires a baptism of lightning tribulation.”
“The first lightning tribulation has been automatically blocked for the host.”
After hearing the system’s explanation, Jaidon finally understood why he was unable to break through to the Battle Master realm.
It turned out that it was really the system’s doing.
Without undergoing the lightning tribulation, one would not be able to obtain the acknowledgment of the power of the world, and thus, one would not be able to break through the realms of this world.
So that was the case. Jaidon finally understood.
“System, is the lightning tribulation powerful?”
“…”
After a long time, the system finally gave an answer.
“Even a Battle General would die if they weren’t careful.”
…
Jaidon was flabbergasted. ‘I just want to become a Battle Master. How am I supposed to survive this lightning tribulation?’
If even a Battle General was going to die, wouldn’t a Battle Apprentice like him be extremely insignificant?
Jaidon finally understood why the lightning tribulation had been blocked by the system. It was afraid that a bolt of lightning would kill him!
However, if he couldn’t break through, it would be very difficult for his status to improve further.
Jaidon felt conflicted.
“Let’s do it!”
Wasn’t it just a lightning tribulation?
‘When have I, Jaidon, ever been afraid of anyone?’
‘If the lightning tribulation is descending because the heavens are dissatisfied with me, then I, Jaidon, will accept it!’
If he did not even dare to face the tribulation, how would he have the courage to challenge the real experts and protect the people around him?
“System, cancel the block!”
This time, Jaidon’s voice was sonorous and powerful without any hesitation.
Boom!
Just as Jaidon finished speaking, a clap of thunder suddenly sounded from the clear sky.
The voice gave Jaidon a fright. He had never thought that the lightning tribulation would descend so quickly and he was not yet ready.

Dark clouds gathered and white lightning began to brew within.
The birds and beasts in the area all left with fear. They were naturally afraid of the power of nature.
“Devouring Golden Body, activate!”
Jaidon stood on the ground, his body standing atop a tree trunk. He stared at the lightning tribulation, his eyes filled with determination.
At that moment, a bold thought appeared within Jaidon’s mind..
