Novel Full Chapter 353 Following Behind
A wave of energy force shot from the ground directly into Cain’s body in an attempt to restrict his movement! The energy force constricts his muscles like a snake coiling its prey.
Cain’s response was instantaneous. A swirl of Sacred Sage qi stormed through his internal body and vaporized the invading force with ease.
With his movements free, Cain shot directly up towards the skies.
During his sudden flight, Cain felt the heat rise significantly. He briefly glanced backward, only to see that where he wanted the stand, a pillar of flaming hot lava tore out of the ground!
The lava had a similar appearance to the sky and ocean. It appeared almost crystal-like, having a luminous shiny luster that seemed to have been fermented for an unknown amount of time.
The crystal-like lava only rose a few feet in the air before crashing back down to the ground.
A wave of pressure continually exuded from the lava and contaminated the surrounding for a few meters.
Any 1stfall Divine Origin coming close here would be hit with great suffocation of pressure.
Cain narrowed his eyes. He only felt a slight sense of threat from the trap’s overall prowess.
But the fact remains that if it wasn’t for his Chaos enhanced Soul Sense, he would’ve failed to detect the trap in the first place!
“Tch. If that’s the case….” Cain trailed his eyes towards the location of the treasures.
The Chaos enhanced Soul Sense pointed him in a direction around 300 miles away. To get there, Cain would undoubtedly encounter many more unpredictable traps.
Normal people would have no choice but to endure traps.
However, would someone like Cain need to endure?
Cain smirked, deciding to himself to screw away with tradition and go his own way.
Chaos energy engulfed Cain’s body again as he teleported through the Void Space, entering right where the treasure was located.
Cain blinked his eyes to a moderately spacious, abandoned-looking room. What promptly caught his attention was the massive Dao Vicious bear-beast slumbering on the ground mere 100 meters before him.
Behind the Dao Vicious bear stood a cracked and rusted podium. Upon the podium laid a small brown cosmo sack.
The cosmo sack exuded the faint yet potent sense of the Sea Qi and Law crystal.
Cain felt a bit surprised seeing such a primitive item.
The cosmo sack had gone out of the market for thousands of years already. Spatial rings were simply easier to make and hold a wider arrange of ability.
But at that moment, Cain had no time to wonder about antiques of the past.
The Dao Vicisous bear beast had awoken. It snapped its crimson-colored eyes open as a 2ndfall Divine Origin aura rushed out of it.
A whirlwind of air gushed all around. Aura pressure descended upon Cain, causing his clothes and hair to slightly flap in the wind.
Bearing this pressure, Cain didn’t change his expression.
A storm of killing intent erupted from the Dao bear. Fresh prey, ready to be eaten, was right in front before its large grasp!
But before the Dao bear could move a single muscle, Cain briefly activated his Chaos Spirit Force, unleashing a powerful aura that suppressed the beast’s Divine aura.
Cain then flicked his fingers, sending out a stream of Draconic Lightning essence right towards the beast’s head.
The Draconic Lightning essence stream sailed at speeds naked to any 2ndfall expert eyes.
A sickening sound similar to a watermelon being smashed open reverberated as the Dao bear beast’s colossal head exploded into a mix of ash and gore.
The Draoncinc Lightning stream effortlessly shredded its defenses, frying the beat’s brain to ashes, instantly killing it.
Cain indifferently deactivated his Chaos Spirit Force and paused to think.
With what little he had experienced, Cain came to a different decision. He clenched his hand, sending out an invisible stream of Sacred Sage Qi that engulfed the cosmo sack before pulling it towards him.
For sucking things up akin to telekinesis, even Profound Soul commoners could achieve this. Qi energy has such a smaller array of abilities that makes the small things in life much more convenient.
Cain had received the cosmo sack without moving out of cautiousness. He lightly caressed the cosmo sack while sweeping his Soul Sense over it.
Moments later, slight disappointment crossed his face.
He thought to himself, ‘Some decent enough stuff here but not really worth the effort. Moreover, the danger here is just too low to really threaten me.’
The stamina of his energy reserves basically made it perfect for him to fight at full power for several hours. Even if he’s unlucky enough to run into a tight situation, it won’t hinder his progress. Moreover, he also has regular energy recovering pills, just like with his Soul energy.
Cain quickly used Chaos Teleportation to reappear in the crystal-coated skies. His Chaos enhanced Soul Sense spread out once again as he quickly flew forward.
This time his traveling speed was around half of his average flight speed.
Still, an amazing speed as he was blasting through dozens of miles within only a few minutes.
Five minutes of flying later, Cain soon started to experience a change.
The pressure, which wasn’t noticeable before, began to slowly increase. It felt as if a small stack of weights decided to drop right down onto his body.
Cain’s interest was slightly piqued. He took a moment to pause completely.
Upon doing so, the pressure intensifies by two times.
Curling his brows, Cain flew black just for several feet. This caused him to experience a powerful gust of wind.
The wind felt as if it was trying to sweep him into its momentum and blast him out of this dimension.
Cain stopped, surging just a small portion of his Sacred Sage Qi to get rid of the slightly troublesome pressure.
Throughout all this time, Cain had his Spirit Sense spread far out. However, he didn’t detect any lifeforms in his immediate surroundings.
Everything that occurred indeed did come from the environment itself.
𝑂𝓥𝓛xt.𝗇𝓔t
This valuable information processed within Cain’s mind. He then stopped delaying, continuing his quick flight forward.
Cain had already crossed over a distance of dozens of miles. And yet, his Chaos enhanced Soul Sense failed to detect any other special resource.
At this time, Cain wished he had an item to detect treasure. Unfortunately, even in his entire Imperial Family had no such item that could detect treasures on the level of Heavenly Rank.
Cain didn’t know how much farther he flew. But it was around a couple of minutes later that he finally detected two cultivators!
He stopped, pinpointing his focus on an abandoned island merely ten miles to his right.
Cain’s Soul Sense didn’t detect anything special about this island. However, the people on it were decently powerful enough, causing his intrigue to increase significantly.
‘Two 4thfall ones, and both look to be around middle-tier. Let’s see what they got.’
Thankfully, the two on the island had their Divine Senses preoccupied with the dangers that lies around them.
Although, even if they did discover him, it wouldn’t worry Cain in the slightest.
Cain quickly cast Chaotic Concealment on himself and then flew close to that specific island. His swift approach didn’t alert the two still wandering the island.
When reaching around 100 meters from the island, Cain stopped, summoning Chaos energy once again to use Chaotic Teleportation. He instantly vanished in a faint green light.
The next moment, he appeared on the island, merely 300 meters away from two youths walking up ahead.
All of Cain’s action was silent, moving like a ghost.
Even now, the youths ahead still didn’t notice any strange sensation brewing behind them.
Chaotic Concealment not only shields him from Divine Senses but also a Martial Cultivator’s instinct to a threat.
If it was just aura alone, these two youths would assuredly be able to perceive the silent danger Cain could bring. Unfortunately for them, the abilities of Chaos energy are unmatched even for a Heavenly Venerate.
The two youths with 4thfall Divine Origin cultivation slightly surprised Cain. Their clothes weren’t of the Ancient Phoenixes or a similarly powerful middle-tier Holy Land.
No, they both hail from an independent Martial Family power!
Cain’s understanding of Holy Lands and Martial Families led him to believe that Holy Lands will commonly be superior.
His own Imperial Family was an exception considering they all have a natural racial advantage that allows them to be superior to even Royal-Ranked bloodline humans.
The typical Martial Family, however, wouldn’t have such significant advantages. Their military force and quality of geniuses would commonly be far lacking compared to genuine Holy Lands.
And yet, these two youths have superior cultivation to Cain’s own royal siblings!
They most likely have something special going for them. So Cain decided to take particular note of their actions.
The youths in question were a young man and woman.
They both had good looks that were very pleasing to the eyes. And they both wore the same style of clothes consisting of blue classical robes that had unique symbols inscribed on their backs.
The blue-clothes youths were currently in a unique situation. Their Divine auras had surged, causing them to exude a powerful presence that seemed into the atmosphere itself.
A large golden metallic barrier covered the blue clothes youths.
The metallic barrier looked beautiful, flickering gleaming golden lights that sparkled like a ray of sunshine.
But more than looks, Cain could sense a powerful amount of energy exuding from that barrier.
A considerable amount of surprise arises within Cain. The energies exuded the sensation of Metal Laws. It felt sturdily powerful, as if there wasn’t a thing on Heaven and Earth that could breach through it.
That feeling really encapsulates what Cain was currently seeing.
The blue-clothed youths were carefully walking while being completely protected by the metallic barrier.
Traps continued to rain pour down on them.
From glowing crystal lava, sharp water energy arrows, long piercing spikes, and even poisonous fluids, it all clashed on the metallic barrier with little effect.
It was an awe-inspiring display, to be sure. But Cain could see just how careful the blue-clothes youths needed to be.
He silently followed behind, taking close notice of how focused their faces were. They weren’t exerting themselves but clearly had to maintain a considerable amount of concentration.
This walk continues for only around five minutes.
Before the blue-clothes youths knew it, they had reached the end of the traps!
Joy alight their faces. The metallic barrier vanished after they didn’t detect any more danger.
The young girl’s broad smile showcased her pearly white teeth. She eagerly examined the rewards before them while saying, “Just look at this, Feng! So many Sea Law Flowers! They can even nurture our Law Marks compared to the crystal cores. And there still is a cosmo sack here.”
Indeed, at the end of the traps, the youths had ended up in a spacious yet ruined room.
And right before them was a bed of white flows that all had a similar crystal luster of skin. Next to it was a podium with an ordinary-looking brown sack.
Both treasures exuded an abundance of rich Divine Essence. Their qualities were both low-grade Heavenly Rank.
At this time, the young man pulled a small blue compass from his pocket. The compact had a pretty glow and exuded a clear trace of potent Spirit energy!
The young man had admiration in his eyes when staring at the compass. He eagerly said, “With this, we truly can find so many wonderful treasures. If we can find, even more, I have no doubt we can increase our prowess and perhaps gain the greatest rewards here!”
