Chapter 152: Alisha’s Visit
Several hours quickly passed during Cain and Kali’s time at the World Spirit Branch.
Most of it consisted of Bellax informing them of the system in place concerning the World Spirit Master Branch. And how Cain and Kali could practically ignore the standard suppressing rules.
All because of their 4th class-level talent, the sibling duo was gifted with extreme advantages.
Cain and Kali felt like these advantages even outstripped most of what they gained at the Crimson Sea Academy.
The phrase that 4th class-level talent was something that can’t even happen in thousands of years indeed couldn’t be understated. This high importance was all because of the extreme shortage of true World Spirit Master talent.
Bellax gave the sibling duo an intriguing explanation that stuck with them throughout the duration of their stay.
Mortals with zero aptitudes for cultivation are such a rarity that it had to be an extraordinary case if it were to occur. Meaning the countless lifeforms that live upon this continent, around 95% of them have the ability to cultivate.
Millions, billions, or perhaps even trillions of Martial cultivators all converged on this massive land!
No matter if numerous kingdoms, races, or empires were to die out, Martial cultivation can never truly die out.
Comparing this outrageous amount to World Spirit Masters was like night and day.
The number of people born with Spirit Core can’t even make up half of the Martial cultivators. And the number of immensely talented World Spirit Masters is even less than that!
Because of this, it’s simply no wonder why World Spirit Masters band together and has rather difficult attitudes.
Less populated they may be, but the value of even one averagely talented World Spirit Master is high.
For instance, just one World Spirit Master can create batches of high-ranking Pills, Weapons, armors, or teleportation transmissions arrays. Moreover, World Spirit Masters even have arts that can tremendously help a Martial cultivator foundation or whichever bottleneck they’re currently experiencing.
With cultivators’ significant dependence on these skills, it’s no wonder an extreme haughty attitude would develop amongst them.
Still, even with all of these factors, World Spirit Masters desperately needs immense talents to carve a new path in Spirit Energy and to even out the scales with Martial cultivators.
World Spirit Masters have a near-identical Spiritual dependence on refining Spirit Energy. Just as many cultivators have one with Qi Energy.
Pursing the peak of all Spirit Energy is an underlying foundation for nearly all World Spirit Masters.
Barring personal goals, Martial cultivators are also a serious threat that couldn’t be ignored.
Even as cultivators need their skills, even as Spirit Energy holds powers sometimes stronger and more versatile than Qi Energy, the numbers imbalance creates an uncertain situation.
If there are no powerful World Spirit Masters to drive off equally powerful Martial cultivators….then what could stop cultivators from taking them as their slaves?
The only valid law governing all of society is supreme strength!
And as World Spirit Master generally tends to progress far slower than a Martial cultivator, there was a far greater value on talent and strength.
When Cain and Kali heard about this, they could connect the dots on why World Spirit Masters view them in such a favorable light upon first greeting.
They were potential good seedlings that could further strengthen the lineage of all World Spirit Masters. And with the results they had scored, the sibling wondered just what those World Spirit Master’s reactions towards 4th class level talent would be.
Cain and Kali wouldn’t be able to tell as of now since Bellax had quietly ushered them back home.
She claims an abundance of background matters needed to be settled about their status. If they were to suddenly appear right before everyone, unexpected things might occur.
And any slight accidents, Bellax saw it as an absolute failure on her part. She wanted their full reveal to be absolutely perfect.
But, they do also have permission to showcase their World Spirit Masters status to others.
After being guided out by Bellax, Cain and Kali had quickly and quietly returned to their massive lodge of a home. The sibling duo avoided all eyes as they settled in their main lounge room.
“You know, even if the reactions would’ve been expected, I still would’ve felt highly amused seeing them fall flat on their asses. Just what could they possibly be discussing about us now?”
Kali questioned with amusement while assimilating into a cultivation state.
“Well, to be fair, if we would’ve appeared in public without any care, things would get too chaotic. 4th Class level is basically a godly level to them. Best to let Bellax deal with everything until we can show up back there.” Cain calmly remarked.
Throughout their short time talking to Bellax, Cain judged her to be genuinely kind-hearted.
No matter their questions or Kali’s standoffish attitude, she patiently took it all in with a pleasant smile gracing her beautiful face.
Even when using his Soul Sense to judge her, Cain didn’t feel any slight bit of strangeness emitting out of her.
In direct contrast, Kali didn’t have much thoughts about Bellax. She simply curled her brows, saying,
“I’ll be impressed if she doesn’t take long with whatever these backgrounds matter ar-”
Before she could finish her thought, a familiar and powerful presence pricked her Spirit Sense.
Cain’s eyes lit up as a faint smile crossed his lips. “So, Alisha finally came, huh? She’s going to be in for a surprise.”
Since meeting Alisha a few days ago, she hasn’t contacted them or showed up at all.
Even when Amber came to visit their house, she was easily let through, claiming her Family connections allowed her to go here.
Typically, other extreme Martial Talents in this situation couldn’t suppress an antsy feeling. After all, they were missing out on valuable time to receive guidance from a powerful Sky Ruler expert!
The experience Alisha has was simply unfathomable to even Innate Lord geniuses.
Alisha’s Martial Comprehension broke past a barrier that many Innate Lord geniuses deem simply impossible. Moreover, she didn’t just stop at breaking past this barrier. Her cultivation steadily increased, and her foundation steadily deepened.
No matter if she were to experience a bottleneck, Alisah was known to profound improve her perception, leading her to eventually break past these hurdles!
With all of her Martial achievements, Alisha could be said as the strongest of the five Discipline Lords!
While the other Discipline Lord certainly wasn’t weak, it was Alisha who garners by far the most fear because of incredible strength and Martial Talent.
Even throughout the entirety of Azure Lightning City, her status is quite well-known and fear-inducing.
Both Cain and Kali were fully aware of these terrifying achievements. However, neither couldn’t care less whether or not they receive proper guidance.
This wasn’t their inborn arrogance talking. But confidence that stemmed deep within their very Soul’s Core.
Their Martial Comprehension far surpassed this Lower Realm planet, their bloodlines were of the utmost purity, and their perceptions abilities could be considered godly to all Mortals.
As long Alisha can be reliable for resources, Cain and Kali didn’t honestly care if they didn’t see her at all for the duration they stayed at this Academy.
Still, if she does come around, Cain had no reason to be rude.
As he strolled to the front door, Cain didn’t restrain his Aura, allowing it to be on full display. And even before opening the door, Cain could sense Alisha freezing like a statue.
With a slight smirk, Cain opened the door, coming face to face with a stunned-looking Alisha.
As their gazes matched, Alisha felt like a bolt of lightning streaked through her entire being!
Her eyes rapidly blinked as if she was trying to make out the reality right before her. Tiny goosebumps tingle her skin, nearly causing her whole body to quiver.
The only thing running in Alisha’s mind at this moment was simple and utter awe. Her lips trembled as she slowly spoke,
“You….hasn’t it only been two days at most?”
“Indeed it has. It’s a pleasure to see you, Alisha.” Cain calmly spoke, uncaring on how bewildered Alisha became.
And his words were like another thunderclap blasting in Alisha’s mind, rolling around like a billowing wave!
Two days….merely two days, but they can already reach the Profound Soul Realm!?
As her mind tried to wrap around this chilling thought, she swept her Spirit Sense deep into Cain’s dantain.
Quite honestly, she didn’t know what to truly expect. But as the faint premonition in her heart was telling her, Cain’s foundation was unbelievably deep! There wasn’t a hint of any impurity!
“Haaah~. You youngsters….” Alisha could only exasperatedly sigh, exhaling all of her surprises straight out.
This is a heaven-defying genius after. They simply required no explanation.
With a wry smile, Alisha said, “You know that the Profound Soul Realm usually takes at least a few months for even our most extreme geniuses. Profound Qi is the first step towards the mysteries of the World. No average fellow can truly grasp this. But you….aiyaa~. Just ignore the rambling of this old woman. I can’t try to comprehend superior talent.”
Old woman? Cain’s brow nearly shot up.
Sometimes, it truly was hard to remember that cultivators not in his age groups indeed are old despite their appearances.
Alisha has a youthful cultivator beauty that stood above even other fairy-like women in this universe. But underneath her skins and flesh was a skeletal age that probably extends to at least dozens or a hundred years old.
Of course, Cain wasn’t foolish enough to ask for her age and invite a disaster upon himself. He could only remark at the powerful vitality Heaven and Earth Origin Energy so graciously gifts them.
Pushing these thoughts down, Cain calmly said, “We just found an opportunity to breakthrough and took it. And before we get on for what you’re here for, Alisha, we have something important to show you.”
“Mn. Very well. Let’s not take too long since the meeting will happen quite soon.”
With that, Cain quickly led Alisha towards the lounge room.
As they entered inside, Kali only gave a slight curt nod while remaining in her cultivation state.
Alisha only gave a soft smile at Kali, not minding her would be considered disrespectful, dismissive attitude. A freaky genius like her is expected to have this kind of attitude more often than what Cain has.
As long as Kali can continue to achieve insane results like this, her attitude won’t be a huge issue.
“Really, I’m glad you two are doing well. So? What is that you have to show me?” Alisha promptly asked.
