Chapter 375: Atlas Realm
Chapter 375: Atlas Realm
When seeing Amber, Cain didn’t hesitate, putting a healing pill inside her body with his Qi energy and carefully revolving it through her body.
Moments later, Amber gained a rosy complexion as her eyes slowly fluttered open. Her first sight was that of Cain’s handsome face, looking slightly concerned.
“Ca-Cain…?” Amber slowly sat up with Cain’s support. Her eyes groggily looked around at their current scenery and her confusion only increased.
“Wh-what happened? Just where are we?”
“That’s a good question I want to know myself,” Cain said, while he took a second look over the scenery. “I can’t say for sure, but I have an inkling that we aren’t in our realm anymore. The richness of Divine Essence here is at least hundreds of times thicker than back at home.”
The richer Divine Essence nearly startled the couple. It felt as if their bodies were faintly weighed down by an invisible pressure.
Their bodies and Spirit Senses adjusted to the less rich Divine Essence of the Lower Realms. When coming to some new place, their bodies would once again need to adjust to the richer Divine Essence and World Source Laws permeating the atmosphere.
Amber suddenly closed her eyes, saying, “Let’s quickly heal up. We definitely don’t want to be caught unprepared here.”
Before focusing on healing, Cain spread out his Chaos enhanced sense, intently focusing on even the weakest of life auras.
When still not detecting anything for a 100-mile radius, Cain nodded towards Amber, and the couple focused on absorbing the healing energy.
A couple of minutes later of continuous absorption and the young couple were back at their full strength.
Surveying the area, Cain contemplated where to go. This grassy plain looked beautiful but didn’t have any clear sign of human life. Pathways either led to forests or just down further the unending grassy plains.
While Cain contemplated, Amber wrinkled her nose. She poured soul energy within her nose, stimulating her inborn Law essence. Amber’s sense of smell amplified by dozens of degrees. It far surpassed anything Cain could do.
Taking a huge whiff of the air, Amber’s head pointed straight towards her right.
She then pulled on Cain’s robes and said, “Over there. I can smell traces of life. It may not be intelligent life forms, but any sign of a Dao Vicious beast should lead us close to society.”
“Alright, lead the way.” Cain nodded in full support. It wasn’t any question to him to trust Amber’s sense of smell. She has already proven how great it was when picking out that servant trading center.
Under Amber’s lead, the young couple quickly flew out. They didn’t fly high in the skies since they feared encountering a sky-type beast far stronger than them.
But still, their speeds were blindingly fast, crossing miles of distance within seconds.
After only several seconds of traveling, Cain’s body suddenly shook. He felt a powerful jolt that shot directly from his soul’s core. His Chaos enhanced sense frantically alarmed him of a significant threat.
He quickly clamped down on Amber’s shoulder, stopping their momentum, and mouthed to her to stay calm.
A bundle of nerves shot through Amber’s body. She was quick to realize that this time, there is no fail-safe for them. There is no unfathomable Shi Wei to protect them.
If they fail here, death was their only option.
With a calming breath, Amber soothed her nerves as her expression gained her usual plain indifference.
At that moment, a loud voice boomed into the area, reverberating throughout the atmosphere for several miles.
“Oh? What’s this? Two little Sacred Sovereigns are really running out here?”
Accompanying the voice was an intense Divine aura that swept down onto Cain and Amber.
The couple’s pupils heavily dilated. This Divine aura was hundreds of times more powerful than a 6thfall Divine Origin genius. It felt all-encompassing, like a massive ocean wave.
This was the power that could only exude from a Great Divine Sea expert!
Along with the Great Divine Sea expert, there were other weaker Divine auras. These weren’t as high, only being at the 4thfall Divine Origin.
Within moments they heard the voice. Cain and Amber witnessed a group of five all riding beast mounts charge over.
The five-man group easily crossed over miles of distance on their beast mounts, stopping just dozens of meters before the young couple.
The five people were all robust-looking men who all donned black color armor. Their expression was relaxed as they scanned Cain and Amber from head to toe. Just two Sacred Sovereigns wasn’t anything for any one of them to worry about.
The Great Divine Sea captain’s eyes flickered with disdain as he asked in an imposing tone, “Have you two chanced upon a relic item that exudes soul essence? If you have it, it would be best to hand it over. If you saw it, it would be best to point us in the right direction.”
Though the captain spoke cordially, both Cain and Amber could just tell from his eyes about his and his goons’ dark intentions.
Cain assumed they all hail from a loose moral Sect organization that allows more crueler people to join in.
As for some kind of relic with soul essence, how could either of them know about that?
Cain’s voice didn’t waver as he said, “No, we have no clue about this soul relic. We are only just passing through here before returning home.”
“Returning home? You…” As the captain spoke, he finally noticed the clothes these two were wearing.
Because of their low cultivation, he already assumed both of them barely had any status to speak off. If they did, they would have powerful stewards protecting them.
But now taking the time to examine their clothes, the captain and his goons took a great interest in the Dragon symbols designing their robes. Their gazes flickered from their robes to their face and a slow realization dawned on their faces.
Cain and Amber suddenly felt a spike of dread. Their bodies tensed to burst out at any moment.
“Hey…hey! These two aren’t nobodies. This is the infamous missing Divine Mortal and his little lover! To think they would appear in our Wintry World.” One of the 5thfall exclaimed with eagerness, rising in his tone.
The captain’s gaze turned intent. A dark glint flashed within his eyes. He suddenly put on an amicable smile and said, “It must be our luck to encounter a Divine Mortal! You and other famous geniuses caused such huge waves of news days ago.”
‘Days ago?’ Cain and Amber were startled.
How could they stay unconscious for so long?
But more than that, Cain couldn’t understand why aren’t these black-armor men backing off even when knowing their origins.
Unless…Cain narrowed his eyes, quickly asking, “Just where are we exactly? The last time we were awake, we were suddenly knocked out.”
“Ah, I see.” The captain nodded. “You’re currently in a High Realm God Galaxy known as the Atlas Realm. We’re very close to the central starfield. And the planet we’re on is the Wintry World.”
Cain and Amber nearly shook.
High Realm?
Close to central starfield?
Wintry World?
They’re not just far from home, they’re practically millions upon miles away from anyone familiar!
Cain distinctly recalled Shi Wei informing him that the God Galaxies are truly too vast. There’s seemingly an endless amount of realms and planets. If one wants to find somebody without any news broadcasted, it was akin to finding a tiny needle in a planet-size haystack!
A sinking suspicion swirled in the pits of Cain’s stomach.
And the captain seemingly read his thoughts when saying, “As you’re probably guessing right now, it is indeed impossible to contact lower realm people without the aid of at least a Lord Sovereign. And nothing can be used as a substitute as it requires an Lord Soverigen’s direct Martial Comprehension to form a lower realm contact. When looking at it would seem your best option is to follow us back to our Iron-Clad Sect.”
“That’s right, that’s right! We definitely won’t treat the young lords unfairly in any way!”
“It will be a great honor to help future Divine Mortals.”
The other Divine Origin also spoke up in a persuasive tone.
Truthfully speaking, none of the Divine Origin even believed they could match a Divine Mortal even if they fought together.
Their confidence came from their captain. He was a mid-tier Middle stage Great Divine Sea expert!
Even so that Cain could surpass two major realms, there was no way he could possibly match a Middle-Stage warrior.
The captain had the same understanding. However, he didn’t rashly tear off pretenses. After all, they may be from a High realm, but this Divine Mortal background still hails from a powerful Mid-tier Holy Land force.
Such a force would certainly contain numerous Divine Star experts and even powerful Divine Rulers. And when considering a Divine Mortal status, it was more than likely he had some powerful Artifacts or talismans to protect him.
The captain’s reasoning was logical and even correct.
However, even with great caution, they all still greatly underestimated the abilities of a Divine Mortal.
Cain’s expression was perfect. He put on a struggling expression, seemingly contemplating all of his options. He had even shocked a look towards Amber, who similarly appeared solemn.
After a moment of hesitation, they both sighed as if they had no choice.
