Chapter 253 - Single Moves
With just his base form, Cain certainly felt a noticeable pressure. But just this was far from enough.
Draconic Lightning Aura!
Soul Form!
Chaos Spirit Force!
With a loud bang, Cain unleashed all of his energies, transforming into his completed appearance!
Within a moment, before Amber, Kali, or even the phantom could react, Cain brought his golden Spiral Sword, causing his aura to surge even more.
Cain instantly swiped his sword, unleashing a single ray of a golden sword light!
The golden sword light soared like lightning, nearing the phantom almost instantly.
The phantom's light translucent eyes widen to extreme porpotions. An aura of pressure suffocated it as it instantly brought out its own Spirit Weapon in the form of a long katana.
Its arm moved at lightning speed, erupting with the full power of its dantain, slashing its katana directly onto the golden sword light.
'Bang!'
Turbulent airwaves swirled all around. Streaks of golden lights sparkled through the air, creating a dazzling scenery that impressed even Kali and Amber.
The golden sword light had blasted the katana away and sent the phantom flying like a broken sack, it flipping numerous times in the air before crashing hard onto the ground.
Both Middle Stage Sky Qi and Early Stage Minor Law essence didn't matter at all; Cain's overall prowess was far beyond it.
With a cold smile, Cain flapped his Dragon Lightning Wings and blasted forwards with soaring momentum!
He instantly reached the phantom, swinging his Spiral Sword at lightning-like speeds.
All the phantom could do was crazily revolve its energies, hoping to somewhat block against Cain's overwhelming momentum.
However, it was all for naught.
Like smooth butter, Cain's Spiral Sword sliced right through the phantom's defenses, cleanly beheading him in one stroke.
As soon as the phantom was beheaded, it combusted into a mass of Heaven and Earth Origin energy and infused into the environment around them.
Within just a moment, a powerful Middle Stage Sky Ruler expert was killed by Cain, akin to slaughtering a weak chicken!
This phantom wasn't any run-of-the-mill Sky Ruler master.
It was created by the special Spirit energy and Source Laws provided by numerous generations of old Huang Dragons.
Basically, if this phantom were to be placed in the Lower Realm, it would be a genius among geniuses!
Even in the Divine Plane and Low God Galaxies realms, it can still be counted as a formidable genius.
And yet, it was so easily dealt with.
Cain wasn't the slightest bit of surprised, however. After transition into the Innate Lord Realm, the density of his energies was amplified by several degrees.
In just his base form, Cain tested he could match even a Late-Stage Innate Lord genius.
Through his high Martial Perception, he gradually converted denser Innate Qi and even denser threshold Minor Law Essence and then perfectly fused it within his dantian.
Compared to previous realms, the dantian fusion process is far lengthier and arduous.
This was testing his comprehension of both the Heaven and Earth Origin energy and its Source Laws. And the higher the comprehension, the more could Cain convert denser energies, control it and then fuse it with his dantian, bringing about a massive qualitative change.
Furthermore, because of his attainments with Lightning Laws, his Draconic Lightning Aura was also greatly amplified, increasing his combat prowess.
And finally, was his Chaos Spirit Force.
Though Cain still hasn't many any noticeable progress with Chaos energy, the fact still remains that the Chaos Spirit Force amplifies all of his energies by tremendous amounts.
Moreover, with his greater energy comprehension and control, along with his gradual advancement with the Soul, he could more accurately utilize his Chaos Spirit Force to a greater extent.
Even now, Cain still wasn't sure of the exact multiplier. But he had a reasonably accurate guess that Chaos energy gives him at least ten times multiplier!
This may sound exaggerated, but if it was anything lest Chaos Energy would seem like a joke.
After all, Chaos Energy is one of the foundational energy of the entire universe. It's just as mysterious and ancient as the essence of Heaven and Earth.
But while this ability is heaven-defying, Cain came to the slow realization he wasn't even using it to its greatest extent.
In the Profound Soul Realm, he was only making use only a tiny percentage of this multiplier as his Martial perception was immensely lacking. His control wasn't able to handle so much amplified power.
Now, Cain could take a far greater reign of this multiplier, being at least 30% of its full strength.
If he could grow to a point where he could use 100% of the multiplier, just how terrifying would his strength become?
Cain couldn't say for sure. But his Martial Heart burn in intense excitement. He could almost imagine the days where his combat prowess could reign supreme even if his cultivation wasn't up to snuff.
A radiant smile graced Cain's lips. He casually swung around his Spiral Sword, eager to see how far he could test himself.
At the same time, Kali and Amber watched on with varying expressions.
Plain indifference crossed Amber's face, being wholly used to Cain's uniqueness. Above all, overwhelming combat prowess never particularly intrigued her.
She more so wanted to quickly end fights just to invest her time in something else.
Kali, however, had ice-cold eyes that seemed to blaze with intense fire. Her competitive spirit completely erupted!
Even if she currently wasn't a match for Cain, she will charge right ahead until this seemingly impossible hurdle is overcome.
Confidence filled every inch of her being.
Kali took a giant step forward, causing another translucent phantom to form dozens of meters directly in front of her.
Narrowing her eyes, Kali sensed the phantom's cultivation and audibly scoffed.
"Tch? Just a mere Early Stage Sky Ruler?
"
Draconic Ice Aura!
Soul Form!
A terrifying freezing atmosphere burst from Kali's body. Her appearance beautifully transformed as her aura powerfully surged.
Compared to Cain, the Minor Ice Law essence emitting from Kali was faintly denser than Cain's Minor Lightning Law essence!
The phantom's Early Stage Sky Ruler aura couldn't affect Kali at all. It was akin to a light breeze to her.
At that moment, the phantom perceived immense danger. But when the freezing atmosphere engulfed it, all of its movement slowed along with its thoughts.
At the same time, Kali's Dragon Ice Wings rapidly flapped, causing her to speed forward in a brilliant flash of blue.
Instantly Kali appeared like a ghost in front of the phantom and slapped her palm down, striking its skull.
'Chiii~!'
Unable to react at Kali's overwhelming speed, the phantom was rapidly frozen into a luminous icy block.
Within the Icy block, the phantom couldn't struggle at all.
Minor Ice Law essence froze its entire internal bodies, killing it within mere moments.
Just like Cain, Kali had also so easily crushed her opponent by seconds!
'Hmm? This Law essence…' Cain narrowed his eyes on Kali. Before taking the next challenge, he poured his Soul Sense into Kali, analyzing the density of her cultivation.
The results greatly shocked him. In terms of Heaven and Earth Origin energy, she was inferior.
But in terms of Minor Law essence, she was clearly superior! The density in her dantian had to be at most three times superior!
When comparing himself to Kali, it was like she was entirely in tune with the Law of Ice, as if she was a spirit of Ice itself.
And instead of feeling pressured, a roaring battle intent surged within Cain.
His smile significantly broadened. Like this, the days when they spar with each other will only become more interesting.
As if Kali knew what he was thinking, she snapped her gaze over, locking eyes.
Their bodies subconsciously shivered in anticipation. No words were spoken between them. But the sibling rivalry was burning like a raging inferno, impossible to burn out no matter the waves.
"Huuu~. Guess it's my turn…
" Amber sighed, causally shrugging over those crazy siblings' actions.
With a step forward, a phantom instantly formed dozens of meters directly in front of her.
This phantom emitted the aura of a peak Stage Innate Lord expert, engulfing Amber in its overwhelming presence.
Amber felt a noticeable pressure, but her expression didn't change.
Soul Form!
Spirit and Qi Fusion!
Minor Shadow Law essence sprawled out of Amber as her Soul transformed. Her prowess soared beyond belief, surpassing anything she had ever unleashed before.
Because she knew her ordinary prowess wouldn't be enough, Amber decided to have Cain connect her dantian and Spirit Space, allowing for the fusion of these polar opposite energies.
And just like the siblings, her prowess is great to extraordinary degrees because of the fusion of two separate great energies Sources!
The instant Amber transformed, she pushed out her palm, gushing out several Shadow tendrils.
The Shadow tendrils blitz across the field, reaching the phantom within just moments.
Sensing the immense danger, the phantom erupted its dantian, pouring out all of its energies.
A broad sword flashed within its hand as it desperately slashed at the Shadow tendrils.
'Bang!'
Effortlessly, Amber's Shadow tendrils shattered the broad sword, blasting it into pieces of origin energy.
And without stopping, the Shadow tendrils tightly wrapped around the phantom, instantly sealing its movement.
Amber's expressions were as indifferent as she clenched her palm, causing the Shadow tendrils constricting the phantom to burst apart!
With a loud pop, the phantom exploded into pure origin energies instantly.
Once again, in just a single move, Amber dealt with a formidable phantom genius.
Compared to Cain and Kali, her prowess was less extreme. But at the same time, Amber possesses four times Qi energies density, two times Law essence density, Dragon essence in her Soul, and the fusion of Qi and Spirit energy.
Additionally, she also had a considerable amount of Cain's Dragon God bloodline now flowing through her veins.
All of this was enough for her to easily skip three minor boundaries.
To Cain, Kali, and Amber, they all were performing such feats as if it was just a casual walk in the park.
On the outside of the separate dimension, back in the Huang Dragon's chambers, the reactions were very mixed.
Huang Dai, Xun, Rulong, and Jielong couldn't suppress the emotions flashing across their eyes.
The energy projection by Shi Wei gave them a perfect view and allowed them to perceive each of their energies.
From this, nothing could be mistaken or misconstrued.
"One hit…just one damn hit. Dammit. When I was a mere Innate Lord, the density of my energies was nowhere near as outrageous! Just where did they get this kind of damn comprehension?
" Huang Rulong was unrestrained in his curses.
As arguably the second strongest talent of the Royal descendants, it was extremely difficult for him to see such inferior cultivation greatly surpass him.
The drive for him to improve on his cultivation has never burned so intensely as of now!
Surprisingly enough, Huang Jielong's once indigent expression turned cold and calculating.
"If they just have this amount of comprehension for the rest of their lives, even Primal Sovereign Holy Lands will find them greatly valuable. None of them are even trying yet, so their limits are far higher. Like this, Cain has the possibility to even reach peak or extreme Sky Ruler! And after this, in the Dragon Celestial Pool, all of their abilities will tremendously improve. By the time they reach just the Sacred Sage Realm, we all may be in for a chaotic future!
"
Huang Jielong's nails dug into her palm, feeling the pressure that she wouldn't even be able to feel from Crown Prince Zilong.
As geniuses, their pride may be immense, but none of them are blinded by it.
The thought that combat prowess weakens over time is only a fool's hope. Especially with the resources of a Divine Ruler Order Martial Family, it is 100% guaranteed that Cain, Kali, and Amber's cultivation will soar like dragons with wings!
They all only witnessed just a single move from each of them. But with their genius perception, Huang Jielong, Rulong, Dai, and Xun could make insanely accurate guesses.
However, even with an unpredictable future ahead of them, none of the Royal children felt their Martial Hearts even slightly waver.
Huang Dai spoke with a burning will,
"I can foresee in just years or maybe even months they can easily reach our cultivation. But, so what if they can? By that time, I will already form my Great Divine Sea!
"
"Mn, cultivation still requires massive accumulations. Just because they have incredible density doesn't mean they can quickly reach our realms. Even if they want to rush through, their dantians fundamentally require massive surges of Qi and Law accumulation. Comprehension can only shorten it by so much.
" Huang Xun thoughtfully commented.
And throughout their entire discussion, only Shi Wei remained silent, a mysterious smile gracing her beautiful face.
