Chapter 549: Great Find
Chapter 549: Great Find
Lan Rui and Lin Zui had no choice but to treat this with the utmost caution. Within the minor boundary stages, the higher the cultivation base, the harder it is to overcome the foe.
Just peak Early Stage Divine Ruler and ordinary Early Stage Divine Rule represents a considerable chasm.
Though Lan Rui and Lin Zui have peak upper-tier prowess without being at the peak Early Stage, they still couldn’t afford to underestimate the Ice Golem. They could very well get seriously injured, or even lose their life!
However, before any plans could form, Amber suddenly leap forward. Her body sparkled with Gold Spirit energy lights. She practically teleported right near Cain’s side.
“Are they…” Lan Rui, Lin Zui, and Yulong’s breath caught in their throat.
The duo already showed dominance among Early Divine Rulers. But could it really eclipse the very peak of the entire minor boundary?
At this time, the moment Amber appeared next to Cain, the Ice Golem ferociously erupted!
“Agh!!”
Its horrid mouth unleashed a vicious roar. Energy from that mere roar alone violently shook space.
Potent airwaves caused Lin Zui, Lan Rui, and Yulong to retreat a few hundred meters back.
While Cain’s and Amber’s white robes didn’t even flap. As if their bodies were in a separate dimension from the roar.
The Ice Golem wasn’t disturbed at all. Simmering killing intent overloaded its instinct. A blinding radiance of icy blue shrouded the entirety of its massive arm. Law runes flashed across its arm, exuding energy principles that overwhelmed the world.
Faster than any ordinary Early Divine Ruler can react to, the Ice Golem violently swung down its radiating arm straight at Cain and Amber!
The sheer size of its fist could cover the duo at the same time. A tremendous amount of air pressure attempted to smash down on the duo. Freezing temperatures attempted to constrict the duo. Complex energy principles attempted to suppress the duo.
But, once again, neither Cain nor Amber flinch nor were their clothes even affected by the surrounding atmosphere.
Faster than a split-second, Cain made an accurate judgment, transmitting to Amber, ‘Heh. This punch alone is stronger than the power of Hao Han’s Dao Origin. They would have some difficulty blocking this. Peak Early Stage indeed.’
‘Right, let’s not waste any time and end this in a couple of moves,’ Amber quickly said.
No further words were needed.
The Chaos Spirit Force, Draconic Lightning Aura, and Soul Form power released to a full 80%!
Draconic Lightning burst out like a heavenly storm. The mighty god of lightning had formed.
A flash of black radiated from Cain’s palm as he grasps the Dragon Swift Sword. The blade’s Dragon Runes violently surged. Draconic Lightning converged around the blade with traces of black lights.
Without any fear, Cain viciously sliced his Dagon Swift Sword straight at the Ice Golem’s fist! His energy overwhelming Law energy principles already suppressed the Ice Golem!
The Ice Golem’s mighty fist started to slightly sway. Against a violent force of pure power and higher complexity, its Law Runes shivered from innate suppressions.
For a split second, the Ice Golem’s consciousness wanted to pull back.
But Cain gave no such option. He smashed the Dragon Swift Sword straight on!
A sound deafening impact, one that can rupture weaker Divine Cultivator’s eardrums, reverberated.
Powerful shockwaves made a mess of the snowy area for hundreds of meters.
Draconic Lightning essence overwhelmed the Ice Golem’s Ice essence energy!
A bewildering scene was presented to Lan Rui’s side. Despite the Ice Golem’s tremendous size, its massive arm couldn’t move an inch forward.
The Dragon Swift Sword had completely halted in its track!
But the blade didn’t just stop the icy arm.
Large chunks of ice have been brutally torn off from the Ice Golem’s fist. The Dragon Swift Sword penetrated deep within with just a single strike.
‘This is…’ Just when Lan Rui, Lin Zui, and Yulong think they got used to the duo’s beyond-common sense prowess, another striking curve ball was thrown their way.
Moreover, the assault didn’t just stop there.
Cain’s other Lightning encased palm started to shine a faint Chaos Light. Its green light was completely masked by the radiance of Draconic Lightning.
Under the mask of Draconic Lightning, a single strand of Chaos energy flicked toward the Ice Golem’s head.
The Chaos energy strand flew far too fast. At speeds, no Early Divine Ruler could possibly react to.
Soundlessly and without any huge flare, the Chaos energy strand slithered deep within the Ice Golem’s head.
No visible damage occurred to the Ice Golem’s head. But at that moment, the Ice Golem’s large body had mysteriously jerked. A faint green radiance emerged from its eyes.
For reasons the creature couldn’t or possibly understand, its mind instantly became confused!
All of its sensations turned completely scrambled. The Ice Law Runes covering its body started to slowly dim. Energy started to drain away from the Ice Golem’s body. Its power continually slipped away.
The Ice Golem’s soul is merely equal to a peak, Early Stage Divine Ruler.
When Cain was still at the 3rd layer, he could already heavily affect Spirit Master Juo’s Golden Spirit Soul. And a Gold World Spirit Master’s soul was already equal to an Ordinary Early Divine Ruler!
Now at the 4th layer with months of training, just how could the Ice Golem possibly resist?
At the same time, Amber unleashed her Inner World, bloodline powers, and the power of her soul into her Inner Spirit Space. Golden Spirit energy principles rippled out of her. The Red Noble Staff made its appearance.
Streaks of Golden lights whirled from the Staff’s tip. Golden Spirit Webs shot out, instantly wrapping around the Ice Golem’s tremendous body.
With its defense severely lowered, the Spirit Webs easily penetrated into the Ice Golem’s body. Spirit energy principles were released from the Spirit Webs and continually suppressed the Ice Golem’s entire being.
The creature’s already lowered defense turned worse and its Ice essence energy gathering slowed to an absolute crawl.
Cain’s eyes glinted in an icy cold light. The Dragon Swift Sword pulled away from the Ice Golem’s massive fist, further tearing out more of its ice chucks and Law Runes.
Faster than the speed of sound, not stopping for even a split second, Cain sliced his Dragon Swift Sword up toward the skies.
The clean motion unleashed a blinding wave of Draconic Lightning from the black flowing blade.
Overwhelming waves of Draconic Lightning cleaved at the Ice Golem.
Suck in Chaos Illusion and suppressed by Spirit Webs, the Ice Golem’s soul couldn’t even warn itself of danger.
‘Chi!’
Enormous chunks of Ice essence completely evaporated from the waves of Draconic Lightning essence energy.
In one move, Cain utterly destroyed half of the Ice Golem’s massive body!
The remaining waves of Draconic Lightning tore off into the skies, cracking apart space wherever it traveled.
? At the same time, Amber stimulated her Red Noble Staff again. A more terrifying sensation blared out this time. Streams of Golden slaughtering Spirit energy burst forth from the Red Noble Staff.
Golden lights that were equally beautiful and horrifying to gaze upon crashed toward the Ice Golem’s head.
Without any suspense, the slaughtering Spirit energy completely decimated the Ice Golem’s head into nothingness.
The slaughtering Spirit energy didn’t just stop there. It spread right through the rest of the Ice Golem’s shattered body, completely tearing it apart from the inside out.
Large golden cracks spread through the Ice Golem. A luminous golden light burst from the Ice Golem as its entire body imploded into a light show!
Silence befalls the land.
Cain and Amber calmly recalled their powers. A peak Early Stage Divine Ruler was annihilated just like a puny ant. All of this was done by seemingly casual movements by both Cain and Amber.
From hundreds of meters behind, Lin Zui, Lan Rui, and Yulong were left slightly speechless.
The Ice Golem merely swung out one fist before it was completely suppressed and then killed!
Such disparity was almost too heaven-shattering.
Yulong was the first to awake from her daze. She sighed in admiration while hurrying forward. “Can they already crush Mid-Divine Rulers? I would be surprised anything can make them draw blood or feel pain!”
Lin Zui and Lan Rui similarly awoke from their stupors. Their mouths were silent, but their minds had numerous conflicting thoughts.
Without another word, the duo also flew toward Cain and Amber. As Yulong got close, she openly asked, “Amazing fight, as usual! So? What’s in the cave that got a peak Early creature defending it?”
At this point, Lin Zui and Lan Rui had caught up. Their intrigue towards the cavern couldn’t be concealed.
Cain didn’t instantly go into the cave. His Chaos Soul Sense swept through the interior, causing his Spiritual Sea to detect numerous potent energy sources. His eyes started to light up with greed.
A moment later, he told his team, “There’s some really good stuff in here. Resources for Ice Affinity Inner Worlds like Martial Sister Rui and general resources not pertaining to any Affinity. Let’s get in.”
The team all felt a surge of excitement. But they still took their time to cautiously walk into the cavern.
Upon their first steps in, they all had to stop. Each of them had genuine awe filling their eyes.
Yulong blurted out. “Wow…I’ve seen many things, but this is truly beautiful!”
Indeed, the interior of the cavern was brightly lit up with luminous multi-color shine that could dazzle even the darkest of abyss.
The interior was surprisingly spacious. Craved along the walls were different sizes of beautiful gemstones. All of these gemstones’ radiance had a soul-pulling attraction.
Towards cultivators well-versed with Divine Laws and the Inner World, it felt like a natural calling to them.
A good portion of the gemstones were round, bright blue, crystal jewels. These crystal jewels all had frosty ice pattered along their surface. Ice Law Runes continually spewed out mystical lights, tempting any and all Ice Affinity Divine Cultivators to get closer.
The other gemstones were a mixture of emeralds in different colors and sizes. Essence Rune Markings similarly pattered along the surface of these emeralds.
As Lan Rui swept her gaze over the gemstone resources, she slowly muttered, “The icy stones are Ice Crystal Jewels while the others are Pure Bless Emeralds. Comprehending the essence energy within these resources will enhance our perception and absorbing these resources will enhance the space stability of our Inner World. The Ice Crystal Jewels specifically will give Martial Brother and me more Ice Essence Marks to strengthen our Divine Ice Law foundations. This is indeed a great find.”
