Chapter 430: Repeated Annoyance
With a wave of Amber’s hand, she dispersed the Spirit web bindings. Her attention already took off the others as she pondered over her battle.
Amber had a faint realization. Her Spirit energy Law comprehension is enough to directly comprehend the later stages Great Divine Sea experts very easily.
All with just Spirit energy could she make the greatest of Great Divine Sea cultivators helpless.
However, with Divine Star experts, the raw power of comprehension just isn’t enough to eclipse Divine Star level of power. She needed to fuse Spirit energy into her Inner World temporarily for that tremendous power growth.
This process gave Amber a thought. In the mortal realms, she was able to connect her Spirit energy and Origin Qi for more powerful results.
While in the divine realm, Cain hasn’t tested is he can do the same theory again with Inner World energies. He was far too focused on the Martial Dao and Amber never really brought it up.
On Amber’s own did she discover that at least a temporary fusion is possible. The only drawback is the massive drain on her overall energy reserves.
But because it can fuse together, Amber very much wonders if a permeant fusion is possible. And if so, would it even be possible for both her Spirit energy Laws and Martial Dao Laws to enhance at the same time?
A thought for the future, but one when she and Cain have a completely safe environment to do long testing on.
At this time, Cain was unaware of Amber’s thoughts, paying attention to Shi Cai and Xei Mei as he brought out more True Spirit healing pills.
As Shi Cai and Xei Mei were released from their Spirit web bindings, Cain tossed True Spirit healing pills into their mouths.
Healing energy instantly flowed through Shi Cai and Xei Mei’s bodies, prompting them to assimilate into a cultivation state.
At this point, Amber finally stood up, a small smile gracing her lips. She stretched and yawned, evidently feeling the after-effects of using a considerable amount of Spirit and Inner World energies.
“And what would make this? Three Divine Star slaves?” As Amber spoke, she nudged her head at Zi Yan. “In all honesty, I think others would hate the fact you have a way to gain powerful people under you than the fact you have slaves.”
Cain lightly chuckled, feeling zero conflicting feelings at all. His Martial Heart had already considerably sharpened to be more ruthless for their own survival.
As for others, Cain could only imagine the intense reactions he would get if knew he could completely control people’s souls and let them go undetected.
He bets even the most righteous and noble of cultivators would feel their desires tempted by greed.
After all, greed was one of the biggest desire of all Martial cultivators. If there was a way for a Divine realm cultivator to get their hands on something, one should expect ruthless schemes.
Still, Cain remained unworried about the future. He simply said, “Not like you can’t buy slaves around the God Galaxies. The more orthodox people want to call them servants, while different organizations simply call them slaves. Either way, I’m just using all assets available to us. Now then…”
When Cain turned his attention back on Zi Yan, he quickly stood from his cultivation state.
Zi Yan bowed with respect to a slave meeting their master, submissively saying, “This slave greets masters.”
Cain calmly nodded. “Mn. Now then. Tell us. Just who are you all? And why are you looking for us? Under Wen Shao orders?”
“Partly master. My name is Zi Yan and my two partners are Shi Cai and Xei Mei. We came from Cloudsea’s hidden world and are under Wen Shao’s faction, but the orders to kill the master and his mistress were handed down by two senior brothers of ours. Their name is Demon Tao and Demon Yan. Wen Shao gave implicit agreement for the Demon duo to find a more effective way to get rid of master. As they were wary of master having powerful talismans or artifacts, Demon Tao gave us a handful of equally powerful items to use. Furthermore, they had placed their hopes in me using my superior cultivation base to quickly finish the mission.” Zi Yan explained.
At this point, Cain and even Amber felt a surge of annoyance. They expected to get targeted for their Martial talent. But actually experiencing the trouble it causes was more troublesome than they could have expected.
Even though Cain and Amber had a far more calm mental state and maturity compared to other divine geniuses, they still have a great amount of pride within them.
Getting targeted like their some farm animals waiting to be butchered by people who are merely considered lackeys by someone far more powerful didn’t sit well with them at all.
Naturally, neither Cain nor Amber believed the other best alternative was Wen Dao. The true solution would be to finish all matters with their own hands.
They may have never faced Wen Shao before, but since he so desperately wants to eliminate growth potential, the duo was sure to make him severely regret that choice.
For now, killing Wen Shao simply wasn’t possible. However, this Demon Tao and Yan sound far closer to their level.
Cold killing intent gleamed within Cain’s eyes as he asked, “And just what are these demon duo? Just what is their cultivation?”
Zi Yan hesitated to speak, previous feelings of fear emerging within his mind. But under a new master, he quickly pushed past these feelings and said, “Demon Yao and Tan are considered geniuses in our hidden world. They both are Late Divine Star geniuses with upper-tier prowess and study 1st grade Divine demon cultivation art. They’re high-ranking Inner disciples who are close to reaching the core ranking! Until master and mistress become stronger, I wouldn’t recommend pitting off against the Demon duo.”
Neither Cain nor Amber was disturbed by this news. As he is now, Cain nearly believes he could match a Late Divine Star expert.
The only real problem would have to be the backings of the demon duo. In a sense, this is where Wen Dao can actually provide some advantages and let them wipe out opposition in one clear moment.
Beyond the Divine Decree Lords’ plots, there was something interesting in what Zi Yan said.
Cain curiously asked, “You say those two are only Inner Ranking disciples? If they’re at the Late Stage, just what is the cultivation of those in the core ranking?”
“Ah, these geniuses are completely terrifying. Wen Shao and Wen Dao may take the absolute top of all geniuses, but there are still some other disciples who made a great name for themselves. The core ranking is a mix of zenith Divine Star disciples, half-step Divine Rulers, and even a handful of Early Stage Divine Rulers! I can safely say their Martial talents are comparable to great geniuses within high realm’s central Starfield.”
As Zi Yan patiently explained, Cain’s eagerness for the future only surged.
It was almost jarring to hear how the majestic Divine Ruler realm is merely something attainable by juniors.
Back in the Huang Dragon Imperial Family, a Divine Ruler would be instantly filled with much respect. They almost seemed completely invincible to Cain.
However, now, after cultivating to higher and higher degrees, the Divine Ruler realm to him is just another state of mind he’ll need to surpass.
It honestly would be surreal to witness his family’s reaction to his current prowess. Although, it wouldn’t be too surprising, considering that everyone already knows that Cain’s amazing feats can be attributed to him being a Divine Mortal.
Still, whether it was his family or the Cloudsea sect, they all were small pit stops on the greater road here.
By the time he could deal with those core ranking students, would be the time he and Amber could confidently go into the high realm’s central Starfield.
The central Starfield is the most powerful God Galaxy region just under the Heavenly Great Worlds. Some powers within the central Starfield can even be considered as quasi-Heavenly Great Worlds.
For sure, it will be an environment in that Cain was eager to thrive. But before replying to Zi Yan, Cain transmitted to Amber, ‘So? How do you feel about all of this? It’s more than likely we’ll have to face all these great opponents very soon.
‘Eh.’ Amber shrugged without speaking. ‘I’m already used to it at this point. Plus, as long as I keep developing my Spirit web domain, I barely need to exert myself in any fights. Just try and not to get too crazy, alright?’
Cain smiled at Amber before turning back over at Zi Yan.
At this time, Shi Cai and Xei Mei finally rose to their feet, their complexion slightly less pale. The duo quickly got into the same servile position as Zi Yan, loudly proclaiming, “This slave greets master!”
Facing the trio, Cain’s smile went from warm and gentle to frightening and murderous.
That face caused Shi Cai, Xei Mei, and Zi Yan to experience an uncomfortable sensation deep within their soul’s core. Even under control, the soul pressure and fear were too potent.
In this state, Cain slowly spoke, specifically annunciating each of his words. “Alright, we got all the info we needed. I will give you three of my contact rings so you can keep us daily informed about any sudden news. And…tell those demon duo that Lee and Xun will graciously remember this little gift.”
