Chapter 443: Great News Upon Returning
High in the divine skies, two figures continually teleported long distances at a leisurely pace. Every step they took crossed them hundreds of miles in an instant.
Compared to other groups traveling, even Divine Star cultivators groups, these two people were far superior.
Naturally, such traveling speed could come from Cain and Amber.
Now that Cain had finally achieved the Great Divine Sea realm, his traveling far surpassed his peak state in the 9thfall stage.
Long distances to Sky Bless City were a simple breeze for Cain. The duo only needed a couple of days to near the borders of Sky Bless City.
As they flew, their presence of Great Divine Sea blared out with full confidence. No longer did the duo need to hide their true cultivation auras.
While not anything truly impressive in the grand schemes of things, any Great Divine Sea cultivators were far more respected than mere Divine Origin cultivators.
In terms of where Great Divine Sea cultivators and even Divine Origin cultivators place within God Galaxy society, they would be at the higher end of the low-class. Great Divine Sea experts specifically are simply a foot away from the middle class.
But though these cultivators may not command as much respect from a single Divine Star cultivator, there is a clear value within both Great Divine Sea and Divine Origin cultivators.
The God Galaxies feel practically endless. But truthfully, the majority of cultivators populating areas would be Divine Origin or Great Divine Sea cultivators.
Wanting to grasp the Great Daos, absorb the Laws of the Heaven and Earth, and evolve the Inner World is a profoundly complicated process that numerous people can just barely achieve. After all, even an ordinary genius can stand far higher than the average sea of people.
It’s why any Divine Star cultivator, even the weakest ones, is considered middle-class citizens and are valued by first-rate sects.
The only true lowest class among the God Galaxies are mortal realm cultivators. They might as well be the slaves or servants of society.
If one is born from a sect or martial family within the God Galaxy, it’s completely possible for them to safely cultivate to the Divine Realms.
But if they are rogue mortal cultivators or come from the Lower Realms, their already difficult life just became hundreds of times harder. There practically wasn’t a place for them to live within the God Galaxy.
When Cain thought it over, he can’t even recall seeing one peak mortal realm cultivator within Sky Bless City.
Everything about God’s Galaxy society just made Cain more assured about rapidly increasing their cultivation so that they can avoid unnecessary troubles.
By the time the duo reached only a few miles from Sky Bless City, they finally slowed down some, at least to a point where other people can see their appearances.
When taking a slower approach, the duo already expected curious gazes that would turn into respect.
However, as they were extremely close to Sky Bless City, the duo gained much more automatic looks of respect than most other Great Divine Sea cultivators.
Anyone who managed to spot them soon gained a glint of realization in their eyes.
This was the marvelous duo of the Zhou Family!
Many had to do a double take when seeing Cain and Amber pass by them. After all, their most recent battle rings only showcased their Divine Origin cultivation. Since when has their cultivation reached the Great Divine Sea realm already?
Though they sensed they got recognized several times, neither Cain nor Amber bother stopping for anyone. As long as nobody gets in their way, the duo had no to bother with anyone.
Around 10 minutes passed and the duo could already see Sky Bless City on the near horizon.
At this time, only a couple of miles away from the city, Cain sensed his contact ring buzzing.
A familiar voice, Zhou Ping’s, ranged through Cain’s mind.
‘Ah? Sir Lee? Is it true? Have you finally returned? Sorry for the sudden notice but…well, things changed since your leave.’
Stopping to take the call, Cain’s brows knitted tightly together. His Chaos sense quickly expanded out, instantly crossing a distance over 500 miles wide.
Nearly all the Divine Aura sensations he detected were normal. But there were a very select few Divine Auras that were far stranger than the rest. Narrowing his eyes, Cain put up his guard. He hadn’t sensed these powerful Divine Auras at any point on their travels before.
These weren’t Divine Origin, Great Divine Sea, or even average Divine Star cultivators.
No, these select few Divine Auras at least had to be half-step Divine Rulers or full-fledged Divine Rulers!
With master attainment levels, Great Divine Sea perception, and Chaos sense, it all combined to allow Cain to just barely detect Law sensations at a far superior level.
All Divine Ruler sensations, even the half-step ones, blended into the environment to a seamless point in any Great Divine Sea cultivator’s eyes.
The Laws of a Divine Ruler are still terrifying, even for all the massive improvement Cain had undergone. Even without a cultivation art, they can simply hide from other Divine Senses with utter ease.
Suspicion instantly arouse within Cain. When Amber spotted Cain’s strange expression, she could faintly tell what was going on.
She transmitted to Cain, ‘A call I’m assuming? And you’re weirded out how they called you so fast without even entering the city?’
‘Indeed…with all that I have now, it’s not too difficult for me to detect those above the Divine Star realm. Zhou Ping had called me with apparently urgent news. Beyond his news, it’s more chilling to think we didn’t even notice these powerful watchers simply patrolling around the city.’ Cain replied while maintaining maximum vigilance.
Compared to Cain’s vigilance, Amber simply shrugged. She found the situation more expected than anything else.
‘Given the scale of this immense city? I’m not too surprised, honestly. In any case, let’s see just what is this urgent news.’ Amber urged on.
Nodding, Cain calmly told Zhou Ping, ‘Just what happened? How long have we been gone? And how did you just know we were so close to the city? I didn’t think the Zhou Family’s reach extended this far.’
‘Sorry to spring this all on you at once, Sir Lee, but our faction really is in a crisis. Truthfully, it was only after you and Miss Xun’s results that I was able to enlist half-step Divine Rulers to keep intelligence for me. Since you were gone, only a few days have passed. And within these days, I received a report that the Cloudsea Holy Land sent a prime disciple into Ling’s faction! Furthermore, these disciples apparently have some special relations to Ling, allowing them to stay with high status and priority here.’
Cain wasn’t surprised. In fact, his lips curved into a grin that was as cold as ice. A delectable dish was right before him, just as he hoped.
On their way to the city, their Dragon slaved had informed them of the demon duo’s increasing caution about him and Amber.
Only Zi Yan was able to inform him that an extremely powerful Middle Stage Divine Star genius may attempt something when he returns to the Zhou manor.
His other Dragon Slaves couldn’t get direct information from the duo demon. But they still were useful to know about the general situations within the Holy Land.
For two geniuses in the Divine Star realm, Cain couldn’t hold a shred of worry. The fact that they were both powerful and came from a great background made him more eager than anything. He doubted that these geniuses can make him serious, but a good workout was always appreciated.
Because of their great background, this Holy Land genius prowess possibly equals to upper-tier Late Stage. They most likely haven’t experienced much losses and can match other upper-tier Late Stage geniuses.
A tall order to face for some, but nothing that could disturb Cain’s mind. With everything he achieved from numerous breakthroughs, all within a span of a week, Cain believed himself to be at least equal to the very peak of the Divine Star realm!
Cain replied after only a moment’s pause. ‘I see…so I’m assuming whoever this prime genius wants to specifically challenge us on the behalf of Zhou Ling. Doing so will show Zhoug Ling’s connection to the Cloudsea Holy Land and majorly suppress our faction in terms of prowess and status.’
‘I’m afraid it is so, Sir Lee. Moreover, I’m not even sure fighting that genius is the best option. Even if you can win, their backing is simply far better than us. It could involve you and Miss Xun into conflict far beyond my control.’ As Zhou Ping spoke, stress was clearly evident in his tone.
All sides of this situation seemed utterly inescapable. What’s worse, there was little Zhou Ping could do to prevent the situation from developing.
After all, this was a testament to absolute strength in all aspects. The control Zhou Ping can exude is practically laughable in the face of a Cloudsea Holy Land prime genius.
If this prime genius only had an ordinary backing within the sect, Zhou Ping could feasibly decline their challenge without worry.
But alas, this was a prime genius with direct connections to influential people he could only look at from afar.
