Chapter 186 - Haven Pool
At that ghost shout, all others became frantically fervent as well.
"This-this isn't Lower Realm space…it's space derived from Divine Source Space Law essence! Not even a half-step Divine Origin small fry can break through this!"
"And even if the Space Law essence weakened over the generations, it shouldn't be by that much….just who the hell are they?!"
To match and suppress a powerhouse Law essence, this was common. If they're at similar strength levels, there's nothing weird about it at all.
Obliterating one's Law essence was a bit more uncommon but not out of complete reason.
If a cultivator is sufficiently stronger in all aspects, including their cultivation, Law's essence, Martial Perception, cultivation manual, and Spirit Weapon, it would be entirely possible to effectively destroy another's Law essence.
But what wasn't possible at all would be to bypass one's Law's essence as if it didn't exist!
Moreover, to also leave behind a wake of destruction tacked on to the list of impossibilities.
The absolute cherry on top was that this kind of ability came from just a brat in the Profound Soul Realm!
Previously, the ghosts were all wary of how Cain's group entered in but not to an overt degree.
Because Cain and Kali had potent bloodline Aura and exuded sensations similar to the God Galaxy, they all believed they were some kind young masters from a decently powerful Family, Clan, or Sect.
It is indeed true that one can't so causally go down to a Lower Realm planet all that they want.
There were numerous barriers, such as the danger of traveling through Space Channels and encountering deadly Space and Time storms or dangerous spatial Vicious beasts.
But, if one truly wanted to go, it certainly wasn't impossible.
Pay a good amount price, and a powerhouse with extremely high attainment with space and time Laws can personally guide someone to the Divine Plan. From the Divine Plane, one can enter upon a transmission array to reach a Lower Realm planet.
Alternatively, one can take an even easier way by directly requesting a World Spirit Master to create a teleportation disc array that will allow someone to appear instantly in a Lower Realm planet.
But gaining a teleportation disc array was easier said than done.
The ghosts were clearly aware that the price needed for one would be at a sky-high value!
This is why the ghosts didn't make any violent rash decisions, aware that revenge from a powerful God Galaxy Family was real.
However, their worries were entirely in the wrong direction.
A Profound Soul junior somehow has the means to bypass and tear Divine Source Laws like it was fragile glass.
Just thinking about this statement seems like the worst joke anybody had ever heard. But the reality couldn't be changed.
Somehow, a terrifying ability had actually appeared on someone so young!
"Ju-just imagine if he were to correctly grow in the future…when he actually comprehends the essence of Laws, just how much more terrifying will he grow? I shudder to think about it."
One of the ghosts breathlessly said.
And his words caused the other ghosts to feel a chill creep through their very cores.
Then, one of the ghosts asked their leader, "Dian…can't you detect where they may be heading to? Maybe…maybe we can cut them off? Your Divine Source Laws should still be prime. And your Divine Sense was always shaper than others even when compared to people stronger than you."
Dian certainly heard his question, but he barely reacted. He only spoke in a tone that sounded incredibly horse.
"I simply can't identify what type of energy has had use. Furthermore, I can't track down their presence anymore. It's like they just up and vanish. And even if were to I sense them, they most likely headed to the Divine Haven Pool. A place none of us can enter anyways. This…there's absolutely nothing we can do."
After Dian spoke, things fell silent again.
Each of these ghosts lived for countless generations. Though they stayed in the same spot for long, they witnessed numerous Divine Talents.
Divine Talents who either just barely managed to survive the grueling tests here. Or ones who persisted to the very end before unfortunately perishing.
But out of all they met, they've never felt more suffocated than what they felt at this moment.
….
At this time, Cain was soaring through the torn open Space Tunnels.
Because the Space Tunnels were far more stable than anything he felt before, Cain could directly feel how his Chaos energy was tearing through an unfathomable power.
This was a power of space that went far beyond the limits of the Mortal Realm! If Cain were to experience just the slightest touch of this immense power, his body would directly disintegrate into ashes!
In this instance, Cain poured his utmost concentration. He didn't dare to make any rash moves, only trying to see if his Mental Psyche could perceive the properties of this higher-order power of space.
He was hoping that he could accidentally stumble upon some sort of enlightenment concerning space.
If he could, his Chaos teleportation could grow even more than what it is!
But, Cain encountered an immediate problem.
When spreading out his Spirit Sense along with his Soul Sense, he only felt a painful blocking sensation strike his mental psyche.
It was the equivalent of smashing his head into a brick wall; the properties of space were far beyond his current Martial Perception!
It was a little bit regretful, but Cain knew it was only par for the course.
After all, his brain and Mental Psyche has only comprehended and been refined by Profound Qi.
No matter his immense Martial Talent, wanting to perceive the Divine order space power was akin to striking an egg toward a huge stone.
With no other options, Cain simply withdrew his Senses. And by the time he did, he finally landed in a new room.
As their feet touched new ground, Cain, Kali, and Amber instantly shivered, feeling incredible fresh waves of energy drill into their bodies.
The trio stood at attention, their expressions melting into a slow-forming bliss.
From their Qi Seeds and Spirit Cores, Cain, Kali, and Amber felt it shudder in refreshing warmth. It was like they were receiving nourishment from a divine quality of medicine!
When sensing their Qi Seed and Spirit Cores, they could even feel that their foundation had just slightly improved!
And the shock didn't just end there.
For Cain and Kali specifically, they felt the Astral Energy seeped into their bones shudder. Their slight Astral foundation also slightly improved from basking in this environment.
For a moment, Cain, Kali, and Amber basked in this incomparable sensation. They simultaneously sighed, inhaling the rich, fragrant air here.
Then, the trio simultaneously flung their eyes open.
As the scenery entered their vision, shock exploded on their faces, their bodies trembling in surging anticipation.
"That's…I have never seen such a beautiful pool before! It's almost ethereal in a sense." Cain muttered his impressed remarks.
Indeed, just meters before the trio was a dozen of miles long rainbow color pool. This pool looked absolutely stunning, far more beautiful than anything they've come across before.
Faint wisps of rainbow lights bubbled out of the pool, almost akin to a beautiful sea of molten lava.
Cain, Kali, and Amber honestly couldn't tear their eyes from such an ethereal appearance.
Slowly, their feet moved forward on pure instincts, wanting to experience this full refreshing sensation.
This miles-long rainbow pool was where the incredible energy waves came from. And the closer the trio stroll, the stronger the sensation turn.
Each of them was silent, letting their Spirit Sense basked in this pool's Aura. Purely because of this sensation, they all felt their Mental Psyche slowly improve.
It was like they were discovering hints of new enlightening information that was never discovered before.
And with Cain, Kali, and Amber's already high Martial Perception, they were able to understand all that was perceived by their Spirit Sense.
It was when Amber got just a few meters towards the pool that memory suddenly flashed in her mind. She paused, her eyes widening in realization.
Her voice came out as slow and loud as she said, "Guys…I think I know what this treasure is. Or at least…tell me, what do you sense from here?"
Hearing her question, Cain and Kali also paused. Peering over to Amber, the sibling duo fathoms that she would have the highest chance to figure this out. Her trivia knowledge is actually quite helpful for many situations.
After only a moment of thought, Cain said, "The Auras are Qi, Spirit, and Astral Energy. Each of the purest order. We've only been around Azure Lightning City. But perhaps this may be the purest Energy of the entire continent. After all, that Master Pristine was a Divine Realm expert."
"I see…" Amber closed her eyes for a brief moment.
Scrunching up her expressions in thought, her mind flashed back to the mysterious symbols of the last room.
Using her near picture-perfect memories, she lined up those symbols with an incredibly ancient text. She recalled that this text had to be the oldest she had ever read!
And what she saw in that text eerily matched up to the symbols of the previous room!
As her eyes slowly opened, she explained, "This place…I believe it is or, at the very least similar to the pool of Havens! You see, one of the founding fathers of our City ventured across the entire continents, exploring the pre-quasi-mystic realm. One realm he stumbled upon had symbols nearly matching the last room. And at the center of that realm was said to be a miles-long pool that had the purest Qi, Spirit, and Astral energy. That same founding father basked in that pool and experienced dramatic changes that massively transformed him, turning him into the first number one expert of the Nine Provinces."
"So it has a rich, deep history like that? Did that guy experiences leaps of cultivation breakthrough all at once?" Cain asked. He felt that it couldn't be something so simple.
Rapid cultivation could just mean an impure foundation and could get eventually passed by other outstanding Martial Talents.
Amber answered, "Not at all. In fact, that founding father's cultivation didn't increase at all. But, it was said that he instantly gained both the ability to use Spirit and Astral Energy. Furthermore, in all aspects, his talent was at a Divine level! During his time, he was an unrivaled talent that made even first Divine Kingdoms scared witless."
"So, if it's something like this exists, I'm guessing it got snuffed out? Or is it possible we managed to stumble upon that same earth-shattering treasure?" Kali asked while also feeling a bit begrudged.
A Lower Realm planet that should be naturally inferior holds so many amazing secrets. This was almost getting to a ridiculous point.
Out of everything, Kali never wants to have results that are inferior to any Lower Realm being. She almost had the drive to find every secret on this planet just to see if everything told is worthy of the hype.
Before answering, Amber gained a puzzled expression as she said, "It's odd…basically, that Haven Pool was used by several of the first cultivators after Azure Lightning City's founding father discovered it. But, the founding father was a cruel one. He killed all those who used the Pool and desperately tried to ward off anyone else from coming. In the end, after some grand battle, the Haven Pool was destroyed, and that founding father was never seen again. All that was left was what was recorded in these ancient texts. My guess…perhaps Master Pristine found another Haven Pool or at least tried recreating it. That guy prowess is probably great enough to achieve such heaven-defying feats."
For a short while, Cain simply contemplated these past matters. But, just moments later, he shook his head of these thoughts.
He told the girls, "No matter if this is that Haven Pool or not, let's still dive in.. Obviously, this is our reward so let's take full liberties."
