Chapter 283 - Capturing
Kali and Amber dying?
A storm like no other whirled Cain's Martial Heart. It took all of his willpower to not outwardly lash out.
The main important thing is ensuring the girls' safety. Nothing else matters at that moment.
Still, before replying to the first question, Cain suddenly asked, "Senior, I have heard rumors circulating. Are you perhaps the remnant soul of Heavenly Venerate Nightmare Lord? My Soul Sense is highly perspective, as you know."
"Since you know and we will be working together, there's no harm to let you know. Indeed, I am Heavenly Venerate Nightmare Lord. And my plan is for an ordinary bodily revival. Thanks to you, boy, the nourishment of these Souls helped more than what I had achieved in these dozens of years. And now, what I need is a potent bloodline so the body can just barely hold a wisp of my Soul. Thus, you are a critical component for me."
Nightmare Lord exposed everything without a hint of hesitation.
Such confidence made Cain feel a crawling chill.
If he had this much confidence in broadcasting his plans, then most likely, his prowess isn't in the realm of comprehension!
There really was only one thought striking Cain's mind now.
Just how did an almighty Heavenly Venerate die?
And what exactly will Nightmare Lord do with a new body?
Cain's first thought latched onto revenge, considering the legend surrounding the Nightmare Lord.
But Cain had a faint guess that someone who stands above the Mortal World would have a more profound goal.
Naturally, Cain kept all his thoughts to himself.
He shakes his head, clearing distracting, and says, "Ok, I will capture them now."
"Excellent, you are quick to adapt to the situation. With me, minuscule forces like these ones will be a non-issue."
As the Nightmare Lord spoke, the power of space twisted around Cain.
In moments, he was sucked into a different black portal.
....
Bright white lights spewed all over.
Five Law Phantoms had simultaneously died under the hands of a handsome youth.
The youth stood proudly tall, his posture radiating superiority. His blazing eyes carried a cold indifference as if everything was little worries to him.
This young man wore the luxurious Ancient Phoenix robes. Naturally, he was one of the male genius Xun Ki.
A genius like him took a small breath after finishing the 15th round.
He slowly said, "These rounds are just brutal. No wonder we were told so many worries. But still, with these rewards, it more than makes up for it!" A brilliant smile spread across his lips.
After taking some moments to rest, Xun Ki was ready to face the next moment.
But out of the blue, something strange had happened.
The power of space started to frantically twist around the area.
It wasn't sucking in Xun Ki but rather exuding out an abundance of Space Dao Marks.
Xun Ki completely froze, watching with great intrigue as two black portals gradually appeared.
Out from these portals, a young man and woman suddenly stepped out.
Surprise promptly lighten Xun Ki's face. "Kang? Bai? What the hell is going?"
He didn't think for a second they chose to challenge him. Moreover, he never heard of two challengers appearing in the same area at the same time.
"This…" Puzzlement scrunched up Ye Bai's beautiful face. She searched for an answer but had nothing in mind.
Fu Kang was quick to get over his initial surprise as he said, "From this, I guess the same happened to Bai as well. Basically, a portal suddenly appeared before us and, without warning, sucked us right in. We were powerless to resist."
"Mn. You're completely right." Ye Bai nodded.
"Huh?" Even more confusion twisted Xun Kis' face. "If the three of us gathered together, this must be no coincidence. Do you think-"
Xun Ki's words couldn't finish when the power of space suddenly twisted around the room again.
Another black portal appeared just several meters before them.
Tension gradually increased between the trio Phoenixes. Their Martial Hearts couldn't help but quiver in such an unknown situation.
And the next moment, a person boldly strolled out of the black portal.
This person caused the Phoenix trio's breaths to hitch in their throats.
He was a handsome young man with an astound temperament. An enthralling profoundness, like the sensation of staring down an abyss, exuded out of him, creating a presence that can suck in a crowd.
This person was none other than Huang Dragon Cain!
The terrifying genius whose making tremendous waves in the Nightmare realm.
If this was any other situation, neither Xun Ki, Fu Kang, or Ye Bai would feel even the slightest bit of fear.
Cain's actual cultivation is too pitiful in their eyes. However, in the Nightmare Realm, his prowess was too fearsome!
Even the genius Phoenix trio could instantly tell when they were heavily outmatched.
Still, as talents breaded by a massive Holy Land, the trio didn't lose their calm.
They quickly banded up together, Fu Kang taking the lead as he confidently asked, "So it is a Huang Dragon. Just what is the meaning of this? I can sense you are a pretty astute guy. You wouldn't choose to do anything with us, right?"
The trio expected some kind of response out of Cain.
But their hopes never came. Cain was utterly expressionless. He didn't care about consequences at all; there was only one goal in his mind.
In that instant, a beautiful green Chaos light flickered within Cain's eyes.
His hand flicked at out terrifying speed, surging a massive amount of World Source Law essence.
From that very motion, several Law essence Chains discharged, blasting straight towards the Phoenix trio at lightning lightning-like speeds!
"You!!"
Fu Kang, Xun Ki, and Ye Bai's eyes widened at unparalleled sizes, their pupils shrinking to needle sizes. Their bodies instinctively tensed for battle.
Their minds couldn't comprehend this decision-making.
This Huang Dragon didn't even hesitate nor speak when attacking!
Does he not fear any sort of consequence at all?!
The Phoenix trio all had clear, rational minds. But no matter the logic behind their reasoning, it all collapsed in front of absolute strength. ''
Fu Kang, Xun Ki, and Ye Bai still desperately tried to form a hurried defense.
World Souce Law essence surged out of their bodies, formulating into a hastily made white light barrier.
A combination of three geniuses' essence control would be no joke.
Even Kali would be helpless against it despite her superior attainment level.
However, how could they ever even slightly compare to Cain's Chaos Spirit Force? They were massively outclassed by dozens of amplification!
'Chi!'
A soft clash sounded out, the Phoenix's barrier shattered into wisps of white lights.
The amplified Law essence chains went unhindered. Their speed was like a light as they tightly coiled around Fu Kang, Xun Ki, and Ye Bai!
Cain nearly let out a smirk in this situation. It did give him a sense of satisfaction to manhandle Divine geniuses with little work.
But even so, Cain kept his face expressionless.
His hand roughly pulled on the Law essence Chains, yanking them as if he was pulling a dog along.
With an audible bang, the Phoenix trio violently smashed into the ground.
"Ahh!!"
The trio spit blood from both an intense amount of invading World Source Law essence wreaking havoc in their internal bodies and frustration birthed from the Martial Heart!
Their scorching heated gazes fearlessly latched onto Cain, their expressions twisting into pure ruthlessness.
If looks could kill, Cain's entire being would be dismembered into hundreds of pieces.
After all, none of them have ever been so humiliated like this!
It was one thing to just instantly kill them. At least it would all be over. But it was another thing to capture and parade them!
The Phoenix trio absolutely couldn't accept it.
However, no matter their thoughts or ruthless gazes, their position couldn't be changed.
In the Nightmare Realm, they were nothing more than weak tigers without claws or teeth. They had no other option at this moment.
"Dammit!! We will remember this! I admit defeat!"
"I admit defeat!"
"I admit defeat!"
Fu Kang, Xun Ki, and Ye Bai simultaneously called, their tone completely unwilling.
What should happen is space twisting around and then a portal sending them out.
However, at this moment, absolutely nothing happened. There was only silence accompanied by Cain's mocking gaze.
"Eh-eh?? This…" The Phoenix trio felt the foreboding sensation in their Martial Hearts intensify beyond belief!
Because Cain chose to not kill them, they believed he was a brute flexing his prowess. But now, far more despairing thoughts swirled their minds.
The threat of death was still very real!
Fu Kang, Xun Ki, and Ye Bai wanted to speak up, hoping to find some kind of salvation.
Their mouths had just opened when their visions had suddenly darkened.
"Huh?!"
The Phoenix trio fell into a crisis. Their pupils heavily contracted when recognizing the cause of the sudden darkness.
In front of their faces was now the black miasma mist! The so-called cause for leading Divine Star experts to their deaths.
Naturally, the Phoenix trio didn't believe such rumors and didn't attach much importance to the miasma mist.
Now, however, questions exploded in their minds.
Just how did the mist appear here?
What was it going to do them?
How the hell could a Huang Dragon control it?!
All questions that were fated to never be answered.
The next moment, the black miasma mist directly drilled into their opened mouths! Hellish pain flared within them. The miasma mist fused into every part of their internal bodies, almost as if it was Qi.
The Phoenix trio wanted to shriek in pain. However, not even a single syllable was utter from their mouths.
Just moments before, they were proud geniuses of the noble Ancient Phoenix Sect.
Now, they were helpless dolls in the face of absolute strength.
Moments later, their lifeforce vanished.
Three Phoenix talents had fallen within the Nightmare Realm.
