The Chaos Dragon Prince

Chapter 179: The Crypt Grave

Under Cain’s lead, the trio swiftly trailed directly towards the Crypt Graves. 

The farther they traveled down, the more Vicious Beast they finally encountered.

Cain and Kali would’ve been elated about this. They needed some fighting release after being coup in the City for a bit. Unfortunately for them, these Vicious Beast only ranged from Nascent Formations to Early or Mid Stage Profound Soul prowess.

None of which that can even make either sibling break a sweat. With just a wave of their hands, all Vicious Beasts fell down like common cabbages. 

And while Cain didn’t satisfy his battle-hunger, he did feel a bit queer mowing down countless Vicious Beasts.

Enormous, ferocious-looking creatures are nothing but simple bugs to him. Fearsome creatures that could tear entire Families or Clans apart.

Indeed, this universe favors the one blessed with Talent and potential. If not, he would be the one getting viciously mowed down by these terrifying creatures.

Barring Vicious Beasts, the trio didn’t encounter any other humans or some kind of race. 

And like this, after crossing dozens of miles in just a few hours, the trio arrived at an incredible scene.

They each stop just a few dozen meters away, sweeping their gazes across an enormous magical-looking Gravesite. 

Cain was expecting something great, but this was entirely beyond his expectations!

The Grave at least expanded for several hundred miles, appearing honestly boundless. Bright, colorful lights radiated from the ground flowing up into the air, forming a visible Energy barrier.

Sweeping his Spirit Sense into this Energy barrier, Cain detected his prowess was nowhere near enough to ever break through it. 

And, when comparing to the strongest people in the City, not even Bellax had even the slightest of might this colorful barrier emitted. 

Littering throughout the colorful grounds were massive Grave Stones, each exuding an overbearing presence. These Grave Stones all varied in color, design, and structures.

Some extended exaggeratedly high into the skies and had exotic markings running along its entire massive surface. These Stones were all in a splendid black-abyss coloring.

Other Grave Stones were just several meters high though they were far more bright in their colors and had markings carved into them that almost looked life-like! 

There wasn’t a single ordinary Grave Stone from as far Cain could see. 

As he swept his critical gaze over, Cain began to recall all that he previously read about the Crypt Grave. 

Just like the text to describe, he could perceive a mysterious boundless Aura leaking in the surrounding area.

Even for Cain’s immense perception, it was difficult to clearly identify what type of Aura this was on its own. However, this Aura would be described as the Natural Treasures of Heaven and Earth.

For years, spanning up to hundreds, thousands, tens of thousands, and perhaps even hundreds of thousands, the Natural Energies of the World accumulated to this specific area.

These Natural Energies were the purest form of Heaven and Earth power the World itself was made from. 

And because of the legendary ancient experts, they interfered with the Will of the World, forcefully making it so these potent Natural Energies will only converge here.

If these Natural Energies were to spread throughout the entire Nine Provinces, while the benefit to the Qi environment would be immense, the consequences would be perilous!

It had to be known that before the ancient experts interfered with the Will of the World, areas with supreme treasures were only known as absolute death zones. 

The Natural Energies of the World gave birth to an extremely dangerous existence that even the peak Supreme Emperors of the entire continent would heavily fear.

If these types of existences were to freely roam around the Nine Provinces, absolute destruction would accordingly ensure. 

Not even the Central Divine Region would be able to avoid a heavenly disaster.

All of this is why these quasi-mystic Realms are sealed up for a certain amount of time before briefly opening. 

Each generation that comes in has to rely on their own lucky chances, perseverance, and overall Martial Talent to truly benefit from such dangerous areas.

For the Crypt Grave specifically, one would simply need to walk into a Grave’s Formation to be transported to its separate dimension. In there would be the true quasi-mystic realm that holds tremendous secrets and tremendous danger.

The ranking of danger between each Grave’s Formation couldn’t be directly defined. The randomness makes it incredibly tough to do so. 

But, the general outline would be that Graves that emits the thickest of Natural Energies will hold the highest treasures and danger. The size, color, or number of Grave didn’t particularly matter.

Although, some archeologist cultivators did formulate a theory that some dangers have a consistent trend between the sizes of Graves.

Cain didn’t really bother with the theories or the danger in general. He had only one goal in mind. 

That is, to obtain the pent ultimate treasure here! 

Normal geniuses or even extreme geniuses wouldn’t dare attempt this hair-brain move.

It is known after all that there was once a group of extreme geniuses, all who had reached the Sky Ruler Realm at a very young age, had arrogantly ventured deep into the Crypt Graves.

This group all had numerous secret treasures, talismans, or other such powerful resources to use in case of immense danger. Adding on to this, their own prowess was incredible in its own right.

And when working together, their might amplified by several degrees! 

However, despite having such advantages, this youthful group of geniuses all fell prey to the Crypt Graves.

Each of them died without even a remnant of their bones being recovered. Martial geniuses who all have their own great destiny and potential were effortlessly wiped away with absolute ease.

If something like that can happen to extreme existence, naturally, all those weaker wouldn’t dare to have that kind of courage! 

No matter what, death is a terrifying subject for all.

Even veterans cultivators who lived for thousands of years didn’t want to perish. With all that they perceived and cultivated throughout their long lives, absolutely nobody wanted to meet their end prematurely. 

But, despite knowing about every single risk, Cain’s decision didn’t waver in the slightest. 

After all, he has something that would cause even the most profound of God Galaxy cultivators to lose all sense of rationality.

His Chaotic Emerald! 

With the absolute power to tear through Space, whether it was Mortal, Divine, or God Galaxy, Cain honestly didn’t have much to fear. At any sign of the slightest threat to their life, he could easily teleport them far away.

Furthermore, Cain was becoming increasingly proficient with the second layer of Chaos Energy. 

Through repeated uses of the Chaos Spirit Force, his mental psyche slowly adjusted to the massive influx of power of Chaos Energy.

Down to the very cell that linked his body together, Chaos Energy runs through it. And to keep this power stable from dispersing, his mental psyche gradually improves, approaching a point where he could achieve a Small Success in understanding.

From learning to control the Chaos Spirit Force, naturally, Cain’s control of Chaos Teleportation significantly increased. 

Furthermore, there was also a gradual improvement with his Soul’s Core.

Of course, his Soul is didn’t improve anywhere near the rate of his Chaos Energy. But, during his duel with Wang, Cain came upon a faint realization. 

His drive to stand at the summit of all geniuses, carving out his own legend was no less than his drive for complete freedom.

Just this thought alone, Cain felt as if his Martial Heart turned slightly firmer, allowing him to perceive a bit more about his Soul’s Core. It was anything significant, but the underlying foundation was there. 

At this point, Cain was assured he could even use the Chaos teleport ability in battle to greatly surprise his foes.

It wouldn’t be a case where he uses Chaos Teleportation in the most blatant ways, such as instantly appearing in front of someone who is dozens or hundreds of feet away from him.

Unless he could mask it with some sort of cultivation method involving Space itself, such moves would only invite the greed of powerhouses he can’t possibly contend with.

No, Cain thought of using the very seconds before getting hit to perfectly use Chaos Teleportation. 

Chaos Energy couldn’t be sensed by even his Godly grandmother. So when he uses Chaos Teleportation in this method, most powerhouses will think is that he has an extreme movement skills. Or perhaps believes he’s a genius who already has attainment with Space Powers. 

Either way, Cain was assured this could be a deadly move that’ll decide the fate of a battle in an instant.

Between experts, all one needs is one slightest mistake for it to all end. 

As Cain mused about these various subjects, he and the girls slowly tread forward. 

And as they approached, numerous figures appeared within their vision. 

“Hm? Oh? Would you look at this? Seems like many others are quite eager to venture out here.”

A trace of amusement flared from Kali’s voice. Her gaze quickly swept through the sizable crowd up ahead, and confidence swelled up within her. 

Comparing herself to this crowd, the difference was evident to see. Even if they were to go in as unknown, barely anybody here would be a legitimate threat to either her or Cain. 

“Hmmm… let’s see Jade Sword Palace? Martial Immortal Valley? Other Tribes and Clans….Families and Clans from our City and…those guys?”

Amber’s brows curled as she swept through the crowd. 

The general range of Martial cultivators wasn’t surprising. Most, if not all, were other youths in her generation. 

And these were just any ordinary youths, but extreme geniuses of their generation! Many of whom have superior Martial Prowess than Amber. 

These geniuses ranged from Peak Stage Profound Soul to even up to the mid Stages of the Innate Lord Realm!

Discounting the Peak Stage Profound Soul cultivators, the Innate Lord Realm is absolutely something that, in terms of Martial Prowess, Amber believes none of them could ever hope to match.

The energy of Innate Qi is too profound, too vast to ever try and make up for any type of disparity. 

However, Amber wasn’t worried at all about heading straight through the crowd.

Their Martial Prowess may be lower, but they have absolute status protection! 

Not even the Jade Sword Palace, the fourth-ranking top organization, would have any thoughts on messing with them.

The only thing twisting Amber’s mind was the unique appearance of two youths mixed in the large crowd. 

When Cain gazed through the crowd, he didn’t have any deep thoughts. Though two youths did indeed stand out from the rest.

And as the trio arrived just meters from the crowd, intent gazes fell on them, and whispers immediately ensured.

“Say….those uniforms and badges. Are they really….??” 

In that moment, Cain’s group became the center of attention.
