n'This is certainly interesting. From what Kali says, most Qi Seeds are just dark blue or align with one's elemental affinity. But this….nearly all gray with just a hint of green? No idea what this could mean.'

nCain carefully inspected the most he could obverse from his vague Qi Seed.

nHe didn't pay much attention to the size as Kali never mentioned anything critical about it. But that gray color left him with several questions.

nAt first, he assumed this could be chaos energy. But he immediately recalled that Chaos energy always comes out as bright green.

nAnd while there was spots of an green light, the Qi Seed was nearly all gray.

nOut of all the elements, Cain couldn't recall anything that was the color gray. And he hasn't practiced with any other affinity energy before, leaving this Qi Seed as a mystery.

nCain could only put this thought down for later. He then focused on the vague imagery of his Qi Seed.

nThis vague, almost phantom-like appearance was the beginning process of the Nascent Formation realm.

nFor this entire realm, Cain needs to fully form his Qi Seed into a completed solid image with stronger and stronger Nascent Qi.

nAt the first level, his Qi Seed is only at 10% of completion. And with the subsequent nine levels, his percentage completion would increase by 10% until the tenth level, the very peak of the realm.

nAt that moment, Cain started to wonder about sub-levels within each cultivation realm.

n'So far, it seems like it's the standard set ten levels to breakthrough. At least in the mortal realms of cultivation. And we only have a three months time limit. I'm sure even if Kali and I ditch coming home, grandmother or our parents will just tear us away from here anyway. So really, we have to find a way to crazily increase our level and combat prowess.'

nCain didn't have the wildest hope in achieving high cultivation in just a short three months.

nWith just the resources they took from home, Cain predicted they could possibly reach the mid-ranks of the Innate Lord realm.

nAnd while that shortcut would make it far easier to travel around, Cain knew that method was squandering their massive Martial Potential.

nEven without it being explained to him, Cain already assumed adventures are the accurate way to go for strength.

nHis Martial Talent may be insanely high. But it can always go higher than even now. Cain even fathoms he could draw out incredible power hidden inside himself to gain more absolute edges in combat.

nIf he ever wants to experience a life full of freedom and luxury, he can't stay content no matter the level he achieves.

nWith all this in mind, Cain ultimately got rid of any slight lingering hesitations about facing the Liang Tribe head-on.

nWhile they won't be able to take a whole, massively powerful organization on, Cain felt assured enough to tread directly through their base of operations.

nThe fights he experienced there would be a good stepping stone.

nBut before any of that could happen, Cain needed to wait for Kali's Nascent Formation breakthrough.

nDespite the sibling duo both having monstrous Martial Talents, there was a fine dividing line separating them.

nThat dividing line grew even more as Cain merely used an hour to reach the Nascent Formation realm. While Kali was only touching upon the borders of a breakthrough.

nTruly, Cain hopes this doesn't cause too many problems in the future.

nIt would certainly be refreshing to have a rivalry with his eager sister. But not to the point where it becomes toxic over ugly jealously or envy.

n'Well, whatever happens, I'll just deal with it in a similar manner….'

nFor a brief moment, nostalgic memories nearly started to emergy in Cain's mind. But Cain quickly suppressed it down, focusing back on his cultivation.

nLike this, Cain took the time to stabilize his great realm breakthrough.

n….

nHours quickly shot by.

nCain wasn't fully aware of the time, but he assumed more than half of a day passed. During this time, he finally finished stabilizing his breakthrough to a perfect foundation.

nOf course, Cain actually didn't need to take this much time. But it made for good practice for later cultivation realms.

nAnd it was finally at this time that a tremendous change occurred within Kali.

n'Hm? So she's finally breakingthrough.' Cain was pleased, sensing an overflow of Nascent Qi soar into Kali's body.

nA bright white light brilliance exuded from Kali's Dragon Charm. Great waves Nascent Qi rolled out Kali like tumbling tidal raves; her prowess rapidly soared to unimaginable new heights.

nThen, ten seconds later, Kali's Nascent Qi reached its breaking point.

n'Bang!'

nSimilar to Cain, a powerful burst of Nascent Qi blasted out of Kali's body!

nThis incredibly pure wave of Nascent Qi signifies Kali as well reached the Nascent Formation realm.

nInstead of opening her eyes to celebrate, Kali kept them close, promptly focusing on stabilizing her breakthrough.

nSoon enough, another three hours flew by.

nDuring this time, Cain couldn't help but wonder if the higher-ups in the Kong Clan were aware of their presence.

nWith the power they showed at the test, no doubt that Captain Liam and the higher-ups would want to see more out of him and his sister.

nBut throughout their entire cultivation, not a single person came close to their doors.

nCain just had to assume his Chaos energy barrier made it difficult to seek out their room specifically.

nWhatever the case may be, Cain temporarily put it out of his mind for now.

nAt the same time then, Cain and Kali flung their eyes wide open.

nCompared to just hours ago, the sibling duo's appearance changed just a slight bit. Now, their eyes was filled with Nascent Qi power, causing them to both subconsciously emit this enchanting glow.

nWith their breakthrough finally over, Cain and Kali felt incomparably refreshed and overwhelmingly powerful.

nKali tossed her eyes down to her fist, repeatedly clenching them, causing her joints to crack with power.

n

"The Nascent Formation realm, huh? Truly, a breeze for us descendants of Dragon Gods. And Cain? Let's not stop here; we'll keep this ball rolling even faster!

"

nA vibrant energy was waiting to be unleashed from Kali.

nHer slumbering Dragon Pride surged with a burning intensity, desperately wanting to be unleashed from its shackle and show off its true might to the whole planet!

nA similar sense of excitement inflated inside Cain. But he was able to retain his calm better and organize what they should focus on next.

nTracing over his spatial ring, Cain then told Kali,

"Before we get too ahead of ourselves, let's began cultivating our manuals. This'll enhance our strength even more.

"

nAfter saying so, Cain promptly took out the Lightning Draconic Manual from his spatial ring.

n

"Ah, right. Compared to reaching a new realm, this shouldn't take too long.

" At the same time, Kali also took out her Ice Draconic Manual.

nCain and Kali didn't waste a second, immediately unraveling their respective cultivation scrolls.

nUpon Cain's Lightning Draconinc manual, there were five beautifully crafted symbols. Each symbol showcased different poses of a majestic Dragon surrounded by various states of Lightning.

nThese five symbols represented the five stages Cain needed to master in order to fully comprehend the Lightning Draconinc manual.

nJust from staring at the Dragon symbols drawing, Cain could feel an indescribable natural aura flowing from it.

nWhile Cain glanced over the scroll, he simultaneously praised the straightforward system this universe has for most cultivation manuals.

nOnce one Qi Sense reaches the required cultivation level needed, all they need to do is focus their Qi Sense on each cultivation symbol.

nOne of Qi Sense's incredible abilities is being able to permanently retain any kind of information.

nFor example, when comprehending cultivation manuals or Martial Skills, all information fully understood can never be lost.

nBefore starting this process, Cain adjusted his state of mind. He was fully aware that practicing this art would cause tremendous pain throughout all five stages of completion.

nThe lightning energy inside this cultivation manual isn't some ordinary lightning element.

nThis was imbued with the ultimate power of several great Dragon Gods who have near mastery control over the Law of Lightning!

nNo ordinary Nascent Formation cultivator would ever dare to comprehend this manual. Even with the tremendous power that comes with it, that would mean nothing if they couldn't keep their lives.

nCain, however, was fully confident in his ability to resist this Lightning Energy. To his Dragon Body and chaos energy running in his Qi Veins, he knows this is more than enough.

nTaking one last breath, Cain finally poured his Qi Sense into the first Lightning Dragon symbol.

nImmediately, an overwhelming influx of powerful Lightning Energy burst within Cain's body!

nIn a single instant, every inch of Cain's body was engulfed by Draconic Lightning.

n

"Nng!

" Cain couldn't even resist leaking out a groan of pain.

nThis pain was truly something else. It was even worse than the time he first used the Ancient ritual to cross over into this universe.

nCain felt like his whole body was getting brutally submerged into molten lava, attempting to burn him to ashes.

nAgainst this immense pain, Cain fiercely gritted his teeth.

nThis stage is the most critical step in the Lightning Draconic Art. If he couldn't resist this, then he'll never be able to use Draconic Lightning.

nMustering up all of willpower and determination, Cain forcefully suppressed the pain. He controlled his mind to become calm, blocking out any and all distracting thoughts.

nBeads of cold sweat poured down Cain's face, but he didn't stop for even a second.

nThen, slowly but surely, Cain focused on perceiving the powerful Draconic Lightning energy wreaking utter havoc inside his body.

n
