The Chaos Dragon Prince

Chapter 290 - Flashes Of The Past



Huang Dragon, Imperial Palace, Shi Wei's hidden chambers. 

Currently, the unfathomable Ancient Dragon Empress had an unreadable expression plastering her face.

The news from Cain may have been the most shocking she ever received in hundreds of years! 

Only her little Cain could report such news with absolute confidence. 

Right then, a thought streaked Shi Wei's mind. 

She swiftly took out another contact ring, injecting soul energy and promptly contacting another Ancient Huang Dragon. 

And it wasn't just the regular Ancient members.

"Senior Maolong, are you there? I urgently need to speak with you." 

Indeed, the one Shi Wei is contacting is their great leading Ancestor! 

Even during regular times, Shi Wei doesn't dare to make the call. However, in this situation, she had no choice. 

After only a moment, Huang Maolong's aged voice sounded from the contact ring. 

"Ancient Wei? What seems to be the matter?"

"Senior Maolong, I didn't believe it when you first went to that wisdom expert. But now, I have no choice but to believe. Everything went according to that vague prediction. Cain did manage to subdue the soul of a Venerate! He's now in control of that quasi-mystic realm!"

Shi Wei still couldn't believe as she spoke. This all seems far too overwhelming, even for great geniuses like Cain. It was all suspicious, far too suspicious. She needed to thoroughly investigate this later.

Huang Maolong's response came a few seconds later as if he was deeply contemplating this scenario, "At this point, it is undeniable that at least Cain has very strong luck. There wasn't any mistake during his birth like you, and I suspected. His luck may rival those from the Heavenly Great Worlds."

"As for fate…I do believe this is why Kali and Amber are with him. They must have strong ties to fate together, which allows them to experience continuous fortuitous encounters. In the end, we must nurture each of them until they all completely surpass us. For now, we will keep the Nightmare realm a secret. Analyze the situation once you arrive, and we will go from there."

"Understood." Shi Wei solemnly nodded. 

For the first time in years, her mood was thoroughly stirred, feeling as if turbulent waves were washing over her Martial Heart.

When planting her feet on the ground, Shi Wei abruptly stopped. 

For a very brief moment, her eyes slightly clouded, her mind recalling flashes from the past. 

Years and years ago, a younger, more youthful version of herself along with Leading Ancestor Mao stood high in the skies. 

The scenery under them was a vast, beautiful forest in full spring bloom. Above was the eerie darkness of the skies, creating a direct contrast to the bloom of the ground. 

Young Shi Wei and Leading Ancestor Maolong stood shoulder to shoulder, their gaze piercing through the skies. 

Their bearing, presence, majestic might were amplified by qualitative degrees. 

It may even surpass what they had become in the present! 

There was only silence permeating between the two for a few seconds.

Then, it was Leading Ancestor Maolong who first spoke, surprisingly asking Shi Wei, "Supreme Elder, has Song Lin transported here successfully? Furthermore, are the predictions coming soon?"

Young Shi Wei's response was quick, "Neither Lin nor Laolong knows what is about to transpire. The Spiritual Wonderous Dream Art will last even for the duration of the tribulation. As for the timing of the tribulations predictions…it should be right around now."

Before the memory continued, Shi Wei blinked her eyes, dispersing the scene. 

Her expression was blank for a moment before her brows knitted because of the surging waves of emotions. 

A flash of unease filled her face. 

The majestic nerves Shi Wei usually have couldn't appear at this moment. However, the moment quickly passed as soon as it came.

Shi Wei's expression returned to usual calm as she ignited her spatial ring, pulling out a small white-grey disk. 

This unique disk differs from the Dao Disk Cain used to leave and return to the God Galaxies realm.

Shi Wei had taken out a Spirit-Space Dao Disk. 

To breach into the lower realms certainly isn't a low cost. But if one is willing to pay a considerable price, then a God-level master of Space Laws can form Space Dao marks that can teleport right through the Divine Plane, teleporting into the Lower Realm.

After all, from higher to lower realms, the Void Space naturally gets less stable and weaker. The Source Law fueling the environment losses its incredible potency, causing everything to become more fragile.

Thus, it is possible for a God-level master to breach into the Lower Realms. 

But for God Galaxies' Void Space, the Source Laws fueling the environment are akin to impenetrable steel walls.

Only those at the Divine Star Realm can just distort the space surrounding them with a powerful enough attack. 

For directly travelling, it added on numerous complicated issues.

One has to take into consideration the space-time channel that is filled with dangerous space and time vortexes. Plus, there are also unidentifiable dangers that are threats to even Heavenly Venerate masters!

These dangers are why the standard method to travel is large Spirit Ships utilizing the Great Void Shift technique. 

However, despite how fast these Spirit Ships go, the time it takes to travel is quite lengthy. Especially if one wants to travel towards another planet or another Great Realm entirely. 

But there is a far quicker way to travel short and long distances through the God Galaxies.

That is the Spiritual Dao disk. 

These disks are combined with both Space Dao Marks and Spirit Law Marks! 

The perfect combination allows the disk to directly manipulate God Galaxies' firm Space Laws, allowing for near-instantaneous teleportation.

Getting such an item is a monumental cost. Only during extreme situations would Shi Wei even consider using the Spiritual Dao disk. 

However, concerning Cain, Kali, and partly Amber, a great sense of urgency always filled her.

No hesitation filled her Martial Heart; she promptly stimulated the Spiritual Dao disk with her soul energy. 

The Spiritual Dao disk spewed a unique white-grey space essence that engulfed Shi Wei's body.

Fluctuations of space essence continually spewed and fused into the atmosphere. 

Space, instead of shattering, directly pulled apart, revealing the black void. 

The Spiritual Dao disk had then shot right through the black void. 

… 

Nightmare realm, mountain range. 

A few miles above the desolate mountain range, white-grey space essence pulled apart the Void Space.

Shi Wei stepped through the black void, directly arriving right above the mountain range. 

Immediately, she snapped her gaze down and swept out her Divine Sense. 

What she perceived and saw left her honestly astounded. A clear expression of shock twisted her face. 

The once unique-looking mountain range that was filled with colorful stones was now completely engulfed by an ominous black miasma mist. It now had a gloomy atmosphere with a faint distinction of death. 

Even miles away, one would feel a sense of pressure weighing down their souls by merely gazing upon the engulfed mountain range.

'Just how did it get like this?' 

Shi Wei wasn't unfamiliar with the miasma mist. When scouting this place out for safety, she evidently came across it several times. 

But never have it reacted like this.

A chill crept through this zenith Divine Ruler master's bones. 

Just where was everyone else? 

Just how did Cain take control of this terrifying realm? 

Shi Wei had no other option but to call Cain. She didn't dare get close to that ominous miasma mist. 

However, the moment she thought about Cain, a formless force suddenly coiled her body! 

'Hm?' Shi Wei's eyes flicker with surprise. 

She calmed herself as this strange black essence quickly covered her body. Inspecting it with her Divine Sense, she identified it to be Space Laws. 

Shi Wei couldn't offer any resistance. She was sucked right inside a black portal.

The next moment, Shi Wei blinked her eyes, her sights gradually coming to an entirely different space. 

Bright white enter her vision. And a troubling sensation suppressed her entire being.

Shi Wei wanted to spread her Divine Sense only to perceive she couldn't use any of her internal energies! Everything was entirely suppressed by the Source Laws fueling the environment. 

In an instant, Shi Wei adapted, stimulating her soul to spread her soul sense. Moments later, genuine wonder plastered her face. 

"The Dao Diagrams here are marvelous! Even with my cultivation, I wouldn't be able to comprehend a single percent. As expected of a Heavenly Venerate master."

As she muttered to herself, Shi Wei slowly walked around. Although it was only seconds later that Cain's voice called out to her. 

"Grandmother? That really was quick."

Shi Wei turned around and saw Cain, Kali, and Amber approaching her. Her gaze flickered over the trio, inspecting that they were healthy before settling on the Dao Crystal Staff in Cain's hand.

An immediate sense of attraction enthralled Shi Wei. That Dao Crystal exuded the greatest Law attraction she had ever perceived in her long life. 

"Little Cain, just what is the situation exactly?" Shi Wei hurriedly asked. 

Cain nodded and launched into a full detailed explanation of the Nightmare Lord. 

Listening to everything, Shi Wei was fully engrossed. Her mind closely analyzed every detail Cain spoke.

And at the end of her explanation, Shi Wei stayed silent. She gave a deep look at Cain that lasted a few seconds. 

At that moment, Cain, Kali, and Amber felt that Shi Wei suddenly turned even more unfathomable. That unreadable expression didn't betray any of her thoughts. 

Soon enough, Shi Wei broke the tense silence, asking in a gentle tone, "Little Cain, you lack the knowledge, of course. But, to enslave any Heavenly Venerate master would not be possible for me, a Primal Sovereign or even a Zenith Superior Heavenly Venerate master. Only those above the Heavenly Venerate Realm, the mystical level of cultivation, have a high chance to enslave a Heavenly Venerate master." 

"When reaching the Heavenly Venerate realm, one would go through a qualitative transformation that is millions or really, hundreds of millions of times stronger than all previous realm. Even if we don't cultivate the soul, the natural defenses surrounding it because of Dao Marks and Divine Essence Marks isn't something any under the mystical realm can handle.. This feat goes beyond just heaven-defying. How did you do it, little Cain?"
