Chapter 114: Teleported Away
Chapter 114: Teleported Away
Cain was frozen in place, his mind unable to keep up with his instinctive reaction. He felt a pain that was similar to experiencing a slow, grueling death. Such pain would’ve directly collapsed an ordinary cultivator’s Martial Heart, virtually breaking their brains.
However, Cain was at his utmost focus.
Chaos Energy was the only option to survive, and he was grasping it to his fullest capacity.
Because of this, the incredible energy from the black robe man was instantly stopped by Chaos Energy and was shredded in an instant!
Besides the initial pain, no other injuries were inflicted in his internal body.
Cain successfully tanked an attack from a Sky Ruler through Chaos Energy!
At the same time, the black robe man was utterly appalled. Many, many thoughts stormed his mind like booming lightning.
Everything was so utterly perfect before. These younglings were entirely unaware of his presence.
The black robe man never believed he would need to do it with such weak targets, but he was entirely focused on suppressing his presence, trailing behind them until the right moment.
From the three encounters he had with them, the black robe man finally concluded that the only boy in this group must have something that can detect any type of Killing Intent.
It made the most sense as Cain managed to react the two times he ambushed them.
Focusing on this tidbit, after the black robe man finally tracked the trio down because of Kali’s Dragon Roar Aura, he had bidden his time.
And when he finally got meters behind Amber as they were all distracted, it was supposed the perfect time to strike them all down!
However, despite his well-crafted plan, it all still crumbled to dust.
Just how did this boy still manage to sense him? How did he move so fast?
And most of all….how the hell he isn’t instantly dead?!?
The black robe man merely used a sliver of energy within his strike. But this was a sliver of energy from an all-powerful Sky Ruler powerhouse!
Forget striking himself; the black robe man’s mere intense Aura would be enough to grind Cain into a blood mist!
This was an utter impossibility. However, the black robe man had no chance to think upon any of his questions.
Just a moment later after he pierced Cain’s chest, the black robe man froze.
He had no idea how to describe it. But a type of Energy, one that wasn’t Qi or Spirit, suddenly drilled into his hand!
The best the black robe man could say about this sensation was that it was mystical.
It felt otherworldly like it was an existence that was above the Heaven itself!
All of the black robe man’s senses were overloaded with sensing Chaos Energy; he couldn’t react at all towards anything proceeding this.
At this time, Kali and Amber were in a state of mental hell. They were honestly stuck between a rock and a hard place, throwing them into unending frustration.
Of course, they wanted to help Cain. But just how could they without killing him?
They don’t know at all how Cain’s surviving this, but it still looked utterly terrible for him.
Yet, they also can’t just sit back and do nothing!
The feeling of helplessness was utterly gross. It made both Kali and Amber sick to their guts, almost to the point of wanting to throw up.
They absolutely couldn’t accept this. They needed, no, they will do something right now!
However, before either Kali or Amber got rashed, an unbelievable scene occurred.
The Chaos Energy gradually swirling around the black robe man’s hand suddenly intensify!
In the manner of an instant, Chaos Energy didn’t just engulf the black robe man’s entire hand but continued on to shroud his whole body!
All of the black robe man’s defenses were easily shredded into. His protective Aura was simply nothing in the face of Chaos Energy.
Even if the black man tried to summon all of his energy before this, the same result would always happen.
At this moment, the black robe man felt all of his sensations vanish. The only thing he could feel and sense was the magical effects of Chaos Energy.
Fuzziness warped his consciousness as space twisted and distorted all around him as if it was breaking into pieces!
Then, a blinding green flash shrouded the entire area. A low whistling sounded drilled into Kali and Amber’s ears as they forcefully shut their eyes.
A slight sting seared their eyelids, causing them to furrow their brows. So this is what it’s like to be on the receiving end!
All of Kali and Amber’s previous frustration, despair, and rash vanished. Now, only pure awe stormed their minds.
From probing the area with their Spirit Sense, neither of them detected the black robe man anywhere close to them!
A mighty Sky Ruler powerhouse, an untouchable lord of the very skies, was swiftly dealt with by a mere Nascent Formation cultivator.
Without any resistance, this powerful old monster of a cultivator who can strike fear into the hearts of masses was teleported away.
This feat….Kali and Amber didn’t know how to describe it.
They both were used to believing the impossible was possible thanks to Cain’s various mystical abilities. But this feat just seemed to surpass them all.
It really felt like Cain was simply a cheat to all of cultivation!
And to think this kind of person had close relations with them. The girls had all sorts of thoughts running through their minds.
But now wasn’t time to focus on their confusion.
Suppressing all manner of thoughts, Kali and Amber quickly flung their eyes back open.
“Ah!”
Immediately upon doing so, they nearly fell flat on their asses. Cain had appeared merely inches from their faces!
And he wasn’t going to give the girls any time to finish reacting. Right in the middle of Kali and Amber instinctively jumping in surprise, Cain shot his hand out, grabbing hold of their shoulders.
‘Chi!’
Another blinding green flash and distortion of space occurred.
A moment later, Cain had once again used another Chaos Teleportation with no regard to his Soul’s Core, sending him, Kali, and Amber in a specific direction.
….
Miles away with Tan and Chen Ai, this duo still remained in their same spot. Neither of them had even moved a muscle during this whole time. Or rather, they were actually physically incapable of moving.
The black robe man drilled a wisp of his Aura into their bodies, locking down their Qi energies permanently.
In this situation, they were nothing but lambs waiting to be slaughtered.
On both Tan and Chen Ai’s faces, desolate despair was the only thing plastered.
They both were in great pride of their generations and had an extremely long life ahead of them. But all in the manner of seconds, everything was cruelly stripped away from them without a chance to even resist.
This cruel unjust was simply par for the course for the path of cultivation.
Anyone who wants to make it big in their lives would need to prepare to face a crueler death than ordinary mortals or people content with mediocrity.
Situations like this were a cycle that continued to permeate for countless years, never to be broken.
And it was at this moment, after an unknown amount of time passed, that a pulse of energy distorted the area’s space.
A flash of green suddenly shimmered, causing Tan and Chen Ai to instinctively shut their eyes. Dread and confusion rapidly filled their minds.
To their horror, the black robe man suddenly back right with them. But, the question is, just how the hell did he appear with that green flash?
Tan especially felt entirely puzzled. If he remembered right, this pulsates of energy….it was precisely the same as what Cain had used!
Even now, the fact that a Nascent Formation youth can willingly distort space was a terrifying concept.
Although, thinking deeply on it wouldn’t matter now.
Most definitely, Tan expected they would die now, considering the black robe man’s mission had seemingly failed. And he honestly welcomed the embrace of death now just to leave this mental hell.
“Damnit….damnit!!” The black robe man was immediately back on his feet, cursing out profanity.
To be bested by a single youngling three times….this was the ultimate of shame!
If anyone in his organization were to know about this, he would be an utter laughing stock to all Sky Rulers powerhouses.
Frustration continued to build up until the black man sighed.
No matter what he felt, the truth is that his mission was close to failing. He almost considered it a total failure since he doubted he could discover that trio again.
“Should I really just waste time to pursue? I can’t spend all of my night searching around….I need other tasks done. Tch.” The black robe man clicked his teeth.
His frustrated gaze then tossed over to Tan and Chen Ai. Seeing the utter despair upon their faces, the black robe man suddenly gained an idea.
His eyes glinted with a twinkle as he began telling them, “Seems like my plan has gone haywire. But, you two will keep your lives, albeit in very special conditions. Your knowledge of everything here will be of somewhat value. You’ll be able to return to your little valley but kept on a very short leash.”
Neither Tan nor Chen Ai bothered to say anything. Their expression remained hopeless, resigning themselves to a dreadful fate long ago.
….
At this time, dozens of miles away from the black robe man was a unique area.
Here, this part didn’t look that different from any other spot in the Demonic Area. The only difference was a standard cave that looked incredibly eroded from the sands of time.
Anybody coming here would most likely end ignoring everything, walking right past the small cave.
But in this instance, a green trail of energy distorted space itself.
Immediately upon appearing, the green trail of energy shot right towards the seemingly ordinary cave.
‘Ka-Cha!’
Instead of simply entering inside, the sound of million glass shattering echoed out in the area.
The cave’s energy barrier broke like fragile glass.
With the cave’s barrier destroyed, the green trail of energy actually entered inside the small cave.
