The Chaos Dragon Prince

Similar to Cain, Amber may have experienced immense changes, but her core personality didn’t change at all. Her smile was calm without a hint of excitement as she said, “The Great Divine Sea realm, huh? I can admit, that experience was quite refreshing when you ignore having to basically cripple yourself for a moment.”

“Even I can say I wouldn’t want to experience that again. But hey, at least we got through it. And now…” Cain gripped his fist in eager excitement.

He and Amber rose to their feet, their joints crackling from pure power, a subtle shift of air swirling around their rising presence.

Cain took a deep whiff of the air, feeling as if he finally took a new step towards the meat of the God Galaxy.

It was the smallest thing that held the most significance for Cain. In the Divine Origin realm, his senses became accustomed to the environment. Whether or not the air was foul with impurity, his Spiritual Sea simply couldn’t tell.

However, now, with the advancement to the Great Divine Sea, Cain could smell, feel and see how purer the Divine Essence of the Heaven and Earth is. Even with the lowest form of Divine Essence being superior to anything within the Lower Realms, it simply couldn’t compare to the Middle Form of Divine Essence.

In that instant, Cain had a small epiphany. The greater perfection of the environment symbolizes his stronger perception of the world and how everything builds up to near perfection.

Cain wasn’t sure if there was anything, even the Great Dao, that could be called perfection. It seemed like an impossible concept considering how seemingly endless the thousands of Great Dao are.

Still, the Divine Boundless Heaven is an environment where beings continue to evolve to break new limits and reach higher perfection. No matter how many natural disasters occur or how many bloody wars break out, the entire universe continues to evolve without any limits.

Cain and even Amber could safely say they had finally gained a stable footing on breaking through the endless limits of the Great Dao. Sensing, smelling, and feeling the purer Divine Essence was akin to a gateway of an infinite journey.

Closing his eyes, Cain sighed with blissful contentment. He then slowly said, “As we are now…heh. I wonder if we can find a true challenge within the Divine Star realm. Above all, we’re one step closing to dealing with those so-called Decree Lords.”

The confidence shooting through Cain and even Amber couldn’t be higher. Their thoughts actually swirled to contending against Divine Rulers.

If they can achieve this in the near future, that’s a huge step towards the high-class of God Galaxy society!

Amber felt amused at this prospect. But she also felt equally drained. Stretching her arms, cracking her neck, she said, “Right, right. But those issues can be for later. For now, let’s get on home and relax for a bit. I grow weary of cultivating in these depressing caves.”

“I can agree with that.” Cain smilingly nodded. Grasping Amber’s hand, he radiated Chaos energy with just a blink of his eyes.

Taking an invisible step forward, the duo vanished in a green flash.

…

Cloudsea’s Hidden World, Demon Tan and Yan floating royal house.

At this time, within Demon Tao and Yao’s royal house, the duo engaged in typical cultivation seclusion. Their bodies radiated an eerie black glow as they swirled around them like a blanket of darkness.

Compared to just days ago, their Divine Aura grew even more suffocating. They were only a few steps away from achieving Peak Stage Divine Star!

It was quite an emasculate achievement. Especially when considering the duo has only cultivated within the late stage for only around a few dozens of years.

Normal cultivation speed is bogged down by the accumulations of one’s needs within their Spiritual Sea and Inner World. Only when one can faintly grasp a breakthrough sensation, one that felt like a barrier to a higher form of energy, would a breakthrough be possible.

Furthermore, there was also the Inner World nurturing any Divine Realm cultivator needs to maintain in order to keep their foundation from drying up and limiting their Martial potential.

Neither Demon Tao nor Yan experienced any mishaps within this step. Their Divine Aura that rippled with demonic essence was powerfully dense and thick. Merely releasing Divine Auras could make weak Divine Star warriors feel a painful suffocation.

Although, not everything appeared to be all smooth. The Demon duo’s faces appeared a bit paler than before. Their expressions, which would be usually relaxed, appeared tenser. It was as if their souls couldn’t forget a pressing issue.

But instead of uselessly worrying themselves about potential issues, the Demon duo threw themselves into unrelenting cultivation.

Unworried about outside concerns, Demon Tao and Yao believed nothing would hinder their mental states.

But right at this moment, their eyes suddenly fluttered open as they detected a potent presence just outside of their doors.

Demon Tao’s expression turned into a slight scowl, his eyes narrowing with slight intensity. “Now he comes after so long? The loot he got better be amazing for taking days.”

Indifference only plastered Demon Yao’s face as he shrugged. “Just open the door.”

Snorting and waving his hand, Demon Tao pulled the door open with Divine Qi, revealing Zi Yan, who stood with a slight concern expression.

The demon duo found the slight behavior a bit strange but didn’t bother to put much thought into it.

Demon Tao hurriedly ushered Zi Yan in while saying, “Finally, decided to show up, eh? Hurry up and tell us how it went. Lord Wen Shao is paying particular attention to this news.”

Both Demons expected the absolute best results. Failure simply wasn’t an option. Of course, how could they powerfully, expert team possibly fail? If so, then that would only be a concerning impossibility.

Demon Tao and Yan ignore a weird looming sensation in their souls as they intently gazed upon Zi Yan.

Before stepping in, Zi Yan took a sigh, seemingly filled with complex emotions. His footsteps were wary as he strolled in.

Glancing between the demon duo, Zi Yan honestly spoke. “I might as well get this out of the way. No, we didn’t manage to kill either Lee or Xun. They still managed to beat us back almost too easily.”

While under Cain’s control, the nervousness in Zi Yan’s tone wasn’t fake at all.

Not because of disappointing Wen Shao, but rather of the consequences of failing the mission. If not careful, his days could end up very miserable.

At the very worst, he could end up severely injure or possibly dead! While death appeared like an unlikely possibility, Zi Yan couldn’t deny a slow tension filling his body.

It all came from his ‘senior brothers’, who would typically be cool as ice. Now, an ominous feeling already crept through Zi Yan while he watched the demon duo’s reaction.

Both Demon Tao and Yan slowly stood up. Their faces contorted between shock, confusion, and simmering killing intent.

Demon Tao quickly spoke up. “Tch, and don’t tell me. You didn’t manage to record the battle, right?”

Zi Yan had no choice but to ‘regretfully’ shake his head. “Despite being three of us, we had to run for our lives against them. There simply wasn’t any chance of recording any of them.”𝗈𝑣𝗅xt.𝗇𝓔t

Truthfully, the demon duo understands their plight. They too would rather keep their lives than uselessly throw them away. Their self-preservation instinct would still reasonably override their loyalty to Wen Shao.

But even so, their frustration still built upon this lack of information.

Just how could two Divine Origin cultivators be so freakishly strong? Especially when up against a group of Divine Star experts?

Demon Tao asked first, “Did those two use a lot of external items to drive you into running? Although…just saying it out loud, to make Divine Star experts running, they wouldn’t even need items at that point.”

“That’s practically the case. Lee and Xun are simply freaks of cultivation.” Zi Yan sighed with genuine wonder.

“There’s no point in underestimating or mistaking them anymore. The first time we can just blame it on sending only one Divine Star expert. But this time, not only did they beat back three Divine Star experts, but one who is also at the Middle Stage. Even if they continue to use external items, the energy reserves they need to utilize them would be far surpassed something Divine Origin cultivations can factually handle. I can only think of three possibilities. Either some high expert really are shadowing them. Their prowess surpassed the standards of even our Holy Land geniuses. Or…their true cultivation is being expertly hidden.” Demon Yao’s tone was cold as ice.

A glint suddenly gleamed in Demon Tao’s eyes. His tongue clicked as he said, “Tch. For the first time, we should’ve paid more attention to what Peng Fu had to say about their abilities than just assuming they had items. Haah…no matter. We’ll correct that mistake now. Zi Yan, just what are their powers like?”

Hesitating for a moment, Zi Yan sorted through his thoughts to give the least amount of relevant information while also passing suspicion. A moment later, he calmly said, “Honestly, what we see in their previous battle recordings is their main move set. Neither of them showed anything new. It’s just that Lee and Xun exude far denser and thicker energies, probably hundreds of times more when not on the battle stage.”

“Hmph. I had a feeling that would be the case. In every battle, they went in anyway, neither ever once showed even the slightest sign of exertion. All of their actions were far too casual.” Demon Yan critically analyzed.

In that moment, the Demon duo subconsciously decided within their hearts. Unknown threats like Xun and Lee must be eliminated.
