"You-you two….your prowess was utterly insane!

" Tyler blurted all of his awe. He was still near disbelief over that magical-like battle.

nLiving out in the village area, Tyler needs to venture out to train and grow his strength to protect those he cares about at home. During his time, he had witnessed numerous high or even extreme talents.

nAnd all of those Crimson Sea Academy students held prowess that was far above the average batch of cultivators.

nIt always reminds him of the significant disparity that is nearly impossible to overcome within their society.

nHowever, all that he saw in that past can't compare at all to either of these two youths.

nThey stood at a level above all extreme talents!

nAre these two really just Crimson Sea Academy talents?

nNothing about them was even remotely similar to past great Martial Talents.

n

"But-but more importantly, you have our utmost thanks!

" Kai had the utmost gratitude in his tone.

"You two essentially save our whole village with this. Please, you have to come back to our village. We have nothing on ourselves that can properly reward you. But our village has special resources that'll make it completely worth your wild!

"

n

"Rewards, huh?

" The sibling duo quirked their eyebrows.

nInitially, Cain and Kali didn't want to get involved with the celebration of being some savior. They both are plainly aware neither of them is heroes or a good samaritan.

nThis was a simple task and nothing else.

nHowever, at the prospect of rewards, Cain and Kali felt their intrigue stimulate. Even if Kai was overexaggerating, free resources were still free resources.

nAnd what the sibling duo majorly needs now is an abundance of resources.

nTheir cultivation, while fast, can only maintain this state for so long. The sibling duo assumes it won't be long until they enter an arduous period of slow cultivation.

nEvery moment within these three months heavily counts. Neither Cain nor Kali can afford to waste a single second.

nThinking of this, Kali shot a look towards Cain, raising her eyebrows. Her curious expression was asking for confirmation.

nHaving the same line of thoughts as Kali, Cain took a moment for last consideration before eventually nodding. He snapped back over at Tyler and Kai, noticing their hopeful expressions.

nHe said,

"Alright, I suppose we ca-

"

n'RUMBLE~!!'

nSuddenly, the whole ground began to ferociously tremble, entirely cutting Cain off!

n

"Wha??

" Cain, Kali, Kai, and Tyler were all immensely shocked.

nTheir eyes widen as a strong vibrating force trembles their entire beings.

nTheir strength levels didn't matter at all. Cain, Kali, Kai, and Tyler were nearly knocked on their asses by this trembling!

nThe sibling duo instantly snapped out of their dazes, eyebrows furrowing in intense concentration.

nJust what the hell was going?

nTo Cain, this didn't feel like any typical earthquake. It was too powerful and intense, almost as if the whole earth was shaking apart!

nIn that instance, as the sibling duo furrowed in thought, Tyler and Kai became immensely distraught.

nTheir faces turned whiter than sheets of paper as utter terror filled their eyes. Tyler couldn't suppress his horror as he blurted out,

n

"Thi-this power!! Why-why is it here?! This has to be power belonging to legendary Profound Soul powerhouses!!

"

n'Profound Soul powerhouses?' Cain and Kali immediately felt their curiosity increase even more.

nBut before they could think further about this situation, fierce gusts of winds engulfed the entire area!

nSlight ripples appeared in the air from weakened yet still powerful energy aftershocks. These aftershocks sliced apart trees, splitting some half and knocking others straight to the ground.

nThe air also started to burn as if the sun was gradually descended upon them.

nJust the faraway aftershocks of this power can have a terrifying effect on the environment.

nIt was no wonder Tyler and Kai were utterly horrified!

nAt this moment, instead of panicking, Cain remained entirely calm. He didn't go fright with fear at all. In fact, he only felt a little bit of pressure.

nExtending his Spirit Sense, Cain instantly locked on two powerful presences.

nAnd as expected, these two presences surpassed anything from the Nascent Formation realm. They were the most powerful since Cain arrived in this Demonic Area.

nStill, Cain didn't lose his focus. As he perceived these two presences, he quickly picked up something very strange about them.

nSomething that he feels like can give him and Kali an absolute advantage to rob spoils!

nAnticipation rises within Cain. His eyes glossed over in greed, and he was just about to turn over to Kali.

nHowever, at that moment, several shadows suddenly flew out of the wrecked trees and bushes.

nWhen Cain, Kali, Kai, and Tyler saw these shadows, surprise blazed in their eyes.

nThese were all Crimson Sea Academy students!

nTypically, any Crimson Sea Academy student would have their heads held up high and exude a natural air of overflowing pride.

nHowever, these Crimson Sea Academy students didn't have an ounce of prestige.

nTheir uniforms were battered, fresh blood flowed out of several of their orifices, and complete horror filled their expressions.

nMost obviously, these students encounter something so harrowing that not even their mighty combat prowess can contend with!

nTyler and Kai stunted in their steps. Just what sort of monstrous beast can have these students running scared?

nThis situation had just spiral all out of control!

nIn the instance these Crimson Sea Academy students appeared, they all promptly noticed Cain and Kali.

nFlashes of shock briefly swirled within their gazes. However, it soon vanished in an instant as they recalled their critical situation.

n

"You two must leave now! I don't know how, but a group of Demonic Orge suddenly appeared over here!

"

nOne of the students hurriedly exclaimed at them. After saying, so he didn't stop running, bursting right past them, going into the far horizon.

nTwo other students flew past Cain and Kali as well, and the last one was just about to dash right out of here.

nBut before she could, Cain shot his hand forward, grasping her shoulder as she passed him.

n

"Wh-what??

"

nThe student was utterly confused. How the hell did some Nascent Formation kid grab her? She's a half-step Profound Soul warrior!

nBut before she could even turn to face Cain, his voice had already drilled into her ears.

n

"Just tell us who is fighting. Right now.

"

nCain didn't want to bother with any rash irrationality, so he infused a bit of Aura in his voice. His tone became far colder, almost steel-like. It was a tone that you wouldn't dare refuse no matter the situation.

nIn the student's battered and weakened form, this Aura-infused tone had a significant effect on her.

nShe simply couldn't bring up proper defenses to resist! So in a hurried tone to get away from another monster, she said,

n

"It's Senior Sister Hiyashi! She took on all of the Demonic Orges so we all could escape! We were too weak, so we only got heavily beaten by merely one Demonic Orge. Senior Sister Hiyashi managed to kill all but one at the cost of grave injuries. She's facing the last one now, and let us escape as she doesn't know if she can win her state!

"

n

"I see.

" Cain simply said and let go of the student.

nIn that instance, the student immediately took off, fleeing far into the Demonic Area.

nSeeing this great haste, Cain slightly shook his head.

nThese students really want to preserve their own lives. At least Kai was willing to die for Tyler until he shouted for him to leave.

nIn any case, Cain quickly shuffled those students out of his mind. He then turned back over to Kali and caught her increasingly eager grin.

nAs they matched gazes, Kali didn't immediately jump to action. She gripped her fist in eagerness, asking Cain,

n

"I know you were analyzing the situation all this time. So? Do we have complete odds of plundering everything for ourselves?

"

nTime was of the essence, and Cain only used a split second to think. He formulated all of his thoughts in a moment and then said,

"Very high odds with little risks. I say around 90% chance we won't even get scratched. The two fighting now are heavily weakened enough for us so we can take this chance.

"

nEven now, as Cain spoke, he could sense the last two presences Auras gradually decrease.

nIf these two were even at half of their full strength, Cain wouldn't consider this plan at all. After all, Profound Soul prowess is something that's he not quite at the level of.

nBut the Aura those two presences were emitting are exceedingly weak. Weak enough for either of them to get killed by his and Kali's Martial Skills combined together!

nMoreover, the situation was perfect enough where they both could simply hide with their Chaotic Concealment and then ambush at the ideal time.

nIt wasn't a 100% sure-proof plan. But there were minimal risks that Cain calculated.

nEven if they do get caught before they're able to unleash their attack, they can simply teleport away and wait for the battle to finish.

nCain didn't really care about this Senior Sister Hiyashi. But since she is noble enough to sacrifice her own for her group to escape, he'll at least try to help if the opportunity presents itself.

nEither way, this was the time for them to gain some Profound Soul vicious beasts Cores!

n

"Come one, I'll explain the rest of the plan as we go. But remember to move carefully. This needs to be perfect.

" Cain explained.

nKali pumped her fist, seriously nodding at Cain.

nThen, without another word, Cain and Kali dashed right towards where two Profound Soul powerhouses were currently clashing.

nTheir steps were light yet swift. In just a few moments, they were already out of Tyler and Kai's sights.

n

"Ah-ah!

"

nAnd it was only then that Tyler and Kai reacted. Everything happened so quickly they had no time at all to adequately respond.

nBut since everything was already done, there was nothing left they could possibly do.

nTyler sighed while shaking his head.

"Come on. Even if we worried, there's no way we could follow them. We'll only bog them down. Let's just pray they do make out a life.

"

n

"Ah….I guess you're right.

" Kai sounded a bit dispirited. But as Tyler said, it was absolutely impossible to follow.

nThe duo only took one last glance behind them before rushing out of the Demonic Area.
