Chapter 155 - Devil Spirit Master
At this time, Cain and Kali were entirely unaware of the tremendous storms their results were wrecking across the entire World Spirit Master Branch.
The sibling duo simply put the rest of their time into cultivating as per usual.
And soon enough, night fell over Crimson Sea Academy.
As night came, Kali remained inside their house training room claiming she was nearing a great breakthrough with her Draconic Ice.
Cain offered to take a slight break but was, as expected, rejected.
Truthfully, during these last few days, Cain did pick up a more fervent light Kali has towards cultivation. It was like her drive for overwhelming strength was only increasing with each passion second.
The cause for this was evident enough. Cain wasn't dense enough to not realize he was continuing to aspire this drive within Kali.
It's something he's been aware of ever since the difference in their cultivation began showcasing ever since the Spirit Opening Realm.
Cain couldn't say he wasn't completely worried over this developing change. The possibility of Kali turning increasingly hostile because she feels suppressed is low but not impossible from happening.
However, like he told himself ever since the start of their journey, he'll deal with it when it comes.
In any case, her fervent drive in strength would be helpful in more ways than one. And it was incredibly entertaining to lightly spar with Kali and experience an actually good workout other geniuses couldn't grant him.
When recalling these thoughts, Cain could only wryly smile. A troublesome sister she is, but now wasn't the time to think about her.
As of now, Cain had reached the roof of his house to meet up with his lazy girlfriend.
Upon stepping on the roof, Cain promptly saw Amber comfortably sprawling out without a care in the World.
For a brief moment, he was honestly enraptured. Amber genuinely looked beautiful under the glistening moonlight glow.
Everything down to her crimson eyes, silver hair, and Natural Aura that emitted a soothing sensation, all was greatly amplified beyond unimaginable expectations.
In the brief moment Cain paused, Amber didn't even turn around but still called out to him, saying,
"Am I really that beautiful?
"
Instantly, Cain snapped out of his stupor. His lips curled in a soft warm smile as he blurred over to Amber.
Without any reservations, Cain pulled Amber into a soothing hug, allowing her soft body to rest upon his laps.
"Haah~. Is this your answer~?
" Amber contentedly sighed. She practically melted into Cain's embrace, her eyelids fluttering in pure bliss.
"Of course it is. I couldn't help myself when seeing you all alone out here. Sorry for taking so long with everything. Things got a bit hectic.
" Cain spoke while stroking Amber's lushes hands.
This small action of his allowed both him and Amber's Souls to soothe even more, causing slight tingles to jolt their bodies.
And when hearing Cain's apologetic tone, Amber ruefully smiled while shaking her head.
She said,
"You don't ever have to apologize for that. I know full well a crazy guy like you will have his schedule busy. And you know, I was actually upstairs sleeping when Alisha came around. So? All things went well? Actually, considering it's you, more than well, perhaps?
"
"I guess you can say that. I didn't tell Alisha, but when Kali and I took the Spirit test, we scored the highest. This is 4th Class red Spirit Energy. Apparently, at this level, we'll be untouchable. And even the 3rd Class would be enough to grow tremendously powerful. By tomorrow, news of this should get spread out crazily, and our status will be even more untouchable.
"
By now, hearing legendary achievement from Cain truly can't overly shock Amber anymore. After his advancement into Profound Soul, it's basically set in stone that he'll become a Divine Expert.
What couldn't be achieved if he puts his mind towards it?
Amber has truly and wholly beacamme slowly numbed to Cain's defying common sense.
Although his achievement did make her think of one old tale.
One of her favorite things to do with Cain is share out intriguing old tales, so she decided to say,
"You know, this reminds of another old ancient expert that shocked the whole continent. In fact, he came from right out of the Elite Martial Province.
"
Before Amber could continue, Cain furrowed his brows, asking,
"These legends…. I've also heard one from a Senior at the Branch, and you're chalk full of them. Just how extensive is this continent?
"
Cain's fully aware that not all legendary experts have to grow up in the God Galaxies. With how broad this extensive universe is, tremendous secrets are bound to be tucked away in the farthest of regions.
Areas that other Divine experts wouldn't even think to look at.
But with so many powerful experts rising out of the Heaven Sky Planet, it's like this place was specifically crafted by a true God!
The Heaven Sky Planet is indeed a high-ranking Lower Realm planet but is it really to this extreme degree where fated geniuses are born?
"How extensive this continent is?
" Amber's lazy expression suddenly turned questioning.
Thoughts that she never really paid much attention to began to rapidly resurface. In this instance, an almost realizing glint twinkled within Amber's eyes.
Sorting her thoughts in order, she slowly said,
"Because of you, all these informations I thought was useless is slowly becoming interesting. Oddly enough, legendary geniuses come from the Nine Provinces, the Central Divine Region, and some faraway place called the Infernal Devil continent. And actually, I've heard a lot of dangerous existences hail from that so-called Devil Region.
"
"Devil Region? That's a pretty damning label. I'm just assuming this continent is too far away for any true war to happen between them?
" Cain asked, ultimately interested.
Initially, all he thought about was exploring the Starry Heaven Continent before returning home. But now, his sights were piqued by this sudden new Devil region.
Of course, Cain was quick to assume that people over there probably practice some famous cultivation method that makes them seem like devils.
He doubts such a powerful race can exist in the Lower Realm, similar to his Dragon God Race. But, he was willing to have an open mind and explore what's genuinely over there.
"You're probably right about the distance. I've only heard that the Devil Region clashed over here a few times before suddenly stopping altogether. Afterward, both continents mainly kept to themselves. Though some adventurous people like to travel down there for the same old, increasing their strength. In fact, the guy I'm about to talk out went down there and experienced some earth-shattering change. He was a greatly talented Martial Cultivator and World Spirit Master but only truly blossomed in the Devil Region.
"
As Amber continued talking about this legend, her expression started to unknowingly turn slightly sour. In fact, her tone even turned a little darker than before.
Cain immediately picked up on this and asked,
"The Thunder Spear Emperor was a decisive person who grew up in this continent, right? He didn't even get chased out of this place. So, what's this guy deal? Did he truly embrace devil-like ideology to grow powerful?
"
"Heh, funny you say that. Because before he went to the Devil Region, that guy was already known as an Infernal Devil child, somehow born into our continent. His Talent was tremendous. But his character even makes me scrutinize him. Just think of all the most horrible things we as cultivators can do. And now, imagine these horrible things getting amplified with his aid of Spirit Energy. There you have the Devil Spirit Master.
"
"Devil Spirit Master?
" Cain furrowed his brows.
It didn't take long for him to imagine the most deplorable ** these people can do with the aid of immense powers.
If this Devil Spirit Master is as horrible as Amber claimed, then actions like rape, slavery, mindless slaughtered, blackmail, manipulation, and who know what else are all on the table.
Judging someone else character wasn't really Cain's style. He honestly was going to feel some righteous anger for atrocities committed in their universe. If it doesn't directly bother him, he genuinely won't care.
Still, this didn't mean he didn't have a bottom line. And for people like the so-called Devil Spirit Master, he certainly would go out of his way to avoid monstrous existence like that.
With a slight snort, Amber continued to say,
"Hm. That guy only got this title when he grew up in the Infernal Devil continent. There, he truly went on a rampage. Every possible avenue for power there was, he would take it no matter which in his path. And when he visited one place that supposedly holds an immense treasure for all this killing, he transformed into an unstoppable expert. With all this power in hand, weirdly enough, this Devil Spirit Master didn't stick around to terrorize the World. After crippling the peak powerhouses of his generation, he simply ascended to a higher plane of existence.
"
"I see.
"
A person like that can possibly either create a terrifying region in the Divine Plane. Or simply quickly perish due to his overly horrid nature.
Either way, Cain certainly had no plans to ever seek this guy out compared to the Thunder Spear Emperor.
Still, there was one thing of interest Cain took notice of in that story.
"By the way, you mentioned a place where killing gives treasure? Any more information about that place?
"
Amber contemplated hard about it before slowly shaking her head.
"Nope. Nothing at all. I mean, you can probably tell how it is over here. All organization that preaches for some kind of fairness and righteousness heavily rejects brutal notions. We have these kinds of organizations as the top powerhouses in the Nine Provinces and the Central Divine Region. Basically, the only reason we know this place exists is because of the Devil Spirit Master. But no matter these guys' beliefs, nobody is crazy enough to commit some kind of destruction in the Devil Region. It'll go against their so-called Morals. And the real truth, they're simply not strong enough for it.
"
"Is that so? This place truly is vaster than I thought. It'll be intriguing to scourer all around here when we're strong enough.
" Cain basically made an indirect decision about their future plans.
And Amber's response was to simply hum in peaceful contentment.
The couple fell into a comfortable silence for a few moments until Amber suddenly decided to talk again.
Her tone returned back to her usual lethargicness as she said,
"By the way, do you want to visit my home in a few days? Once all of your crazy news gets spread around, it'll eliminate all troublesome things about you coming over.. And this will also get my troublesome parents off my back.
"
