The Chaos Dragon Prince-Chapter 495 Smoother Cultivation

Cain quickly took out Zi Yan's contact ring this time and connected to him. Once the soul line was established, Cain wasted no time in saying, 'Zi Yan, I want you to find out more about Senior Master Juo and his intentions with Wen Shao. This guy had just tried to poison us through the Spirit Scroll. Of course, you must keep this a secret and prevent anyone from finding out your intentions.'

'Yes, master. I will find out as much as I can right now,' Zi Yan eagerly replied.

After the connection went silent, Cain thought about their next moves.

Because the bug had quite literally come out of the Spirit Scroll, Cain did consider the option of simply exposing Senior Master Juo for his vicious deed.

However, for a valuable World Spirit Master, how could Cloudsea spare majorly offending Senior Master Juo, much less outright killing him? His punishment would be considered very harsh at best.

,m Martial talent and Spirit talent are equally important. Both are forces that any and all Holy Lands absolutely need. However, in some cases, it wouldn't be uncommon to see Holy Lands prioritizing World Spirit Masters.

After all, World Spirit Master can spread benefits for the entire Holy Land rather than just one overwhelming fighting force. World Spirit Master is essential in keeping a Holy Land longevity.

Senior Master Juo could get heavy restrictions on his movement or long imprisonment in the best scenarios.

However, that won't be enough for Cain. The most important fact to him would be that Senior Master Juo would still be alive.

A threat like that being alive doesn't sit well with Cain at all. Senior Master Juo can potentially be more of a danger to him and Amber than Divine Decree Lord Wen Shao.

Furthermore, any World Spirit Master is highly intelligent. Who's to say that Senior Master Juo didn't plan around if his scheme was caught in the open?

No, Cain absolutely can't risk dancing around this issue. Since he has the ability to do so, Cain will take the most secure route. Killing Senior Master Juo without anyone, even the Supreme Elders noticing.

To achieve this, Cain knows he'll need more insider information to perfectly plan around cleanly killing him off.

Other than information, another essential ability he needs is greater personal strength.

Amber knew what Cain was thinking about just by the look on his face. She pursed her lips and asked, "Isn't that guy only as strong as an ordinary Early Divine Ruler? At full power, I'm sure you can instantly kill some average Divine Ruler."

Pausing for a moment, Cain scanned over himself and thought about the barrier to the Divine Ruler realm. Never once had he ever doubted his own combat prowess. He's fully assured about taking on an Early Divine Ruler at full power.

But this was only about matching and possibly defeating that cultivator. Not actually killing him.

Defeating a foe, capturing a foe, and killing a foe were all entirely different concepts. Typically, capturing a powerful opponent was the hardest of the three. The second hardest would be killing them.

Moreover, this wasn't a simple killing. Cain needed to have an instantaneous kill in order for the plan to succeed.

Cain lightly sighed. "As my comprehension increases, the more questions I have. They say Divine Mortals can always fight two realms above their base cultivation. But, if that's so true, then what about the Divine Mortals in the Primal Sovereign realm or the Heavenly Venerate realm? Shouldn't they be the absolute rulers of our entire Heaven? Even for how rare they are, it is confirmed that there are Divine Mortals in this present day. Yet, I haven't read any books about them being the absolute ruler of this Heaven."

Amber curled her brows. "So you're implying that despite having two realms above prowess, it's a special situation only to you? And that Divine Mortals are weaker than they seem? That's a little...I mean, didn't read stories of the past where Divine Ruler's Divine Mortals anticipated Primal Sovereign organizations all by themselves?"

"Hey, yeah? Didn't that happen to your family's first descendant? That couldn't be a lie, right? Is the Divine Ruler gulf really that immense?"

Cain paused for a long moment before speaking. All kinds of thoughts flashed through his mind. Settling his mental state with soul energy, he said, "These are just my guesses, but after fighting Du Hu and Delan, I did notice that I needed to use nearly 90% of my full power to overwhelm them. And those two weren't even the strongest of half-step Divine Ruler prowess. In all honesty? I wouldn't be surprised if history books and the higher up lies in order to give hope to the masses."

No matter whether it's the magical world or the mortal world, propaganda to sway the masses would be readily available. Cain honestly couldn't blame these people for using this method in any case, especially in this brutal world.

"Basically, it is as you said. I'm a special case in being to contend with Divine Rulers. Despite Divine Ruler having Supreme Divine Laws and their own Dao Origin, I can counter that with the raw power of Chaos energy. And if I want to cleanly kill Juo off, my base cultivation needs to be a bit higher." Cain finished explaining.

Only a small flicker of emotion showed on Amber's face. "You know, I suppose I haven't thought about Divine Mortals that hard. Then again, I don't really put much thought into the Martial Way in general. But either way, I have a feeling about what we're going to do now."

Cain faintly smiled. He quickly took out the Heavenly Grade Lightning Dao Core Fragment.

The small blue core shimmered with a hypnotic glow. Pulsation of mysterious Source Laws flowed out of the Dao Core Fragment and nearly engulfed the entire atmosphere.

Subconsciously, Amber's eyes stayed attracted to the Dao Core Fragment. Her soul couldn't resist the pull of Source Laws on a fundamental level.

Cain gained a small smirk as he said, "Say since our attainment level saw a small rise, shall we see how faster we can absorb these Cores? I'm sure we'll be in for a surprise."

Shrugging and taking out her Heavenly Grade Shadow Dao Core Fragment, Amber caressed the core while saying, "The higher our cultivation is, the better. And I suppose I am a little bit curious where stack now."

The duo then promptly assimilated into a meditative state, their left hands tightly clutching their Dao Core Fragments. In their right hands, at the same time, Cain and Amber brought out the Dragon Charm.

The very instant the duo poured soul energy into their Dao Core Fragments and Dragon Charm, a change silently occurred within their internal body.

Black lightning stimulated out of Cain and Amber's blood cells and soared straight into their Spiritual Sea. Moments later, the faint marking of a black Dragon rune emerged at the center of the duo's forehead. 𝑓𝓇𝑒𝑒𝚠e𝘣𝓷𝘰ѵe𝑙.com

Upon the active activation of the Dragon Charm and the subconscious activation of the black lightning, Cain and Amber's Spiritual Sea perception abilities reached newfound heights!

As Cain and Amber gained better and better resources, the need to purify resources' impure energies with the Dragon Charm became unnecessary. But even so, the pure Dragon blood essence within the Dragon Charm still provided immense support for their Spiritual Sea.

The martial comprehension of past ancient Dragon gods was in the pure Dragon blood essence. It caused a great, passive enhancement to the duo's Spiritual Seas.

This, coupled with the mysterious black lightning that can tremendously enhance their perception abilities, Cain and Amber surpassed all common sense of cultivation.

Cain's and Amber's bodies visibly jerked. Surprise crossed their faces for only a brief second. Afterward, their lips boomed into beautiful smiles.

The sensations of the Dao Core Fragments weren't confusing or really mysterious. Its energy principles nearly seemed simple to the duo.

Like filling in the blanks of easy tests about math or some other subjects, Cain and Amber comprehended their Dao Core Fragments at an alarming rate.

These Dao Core Fragments were the highest they can be. Heavenly Grade ranking, meaning their energy principles would be exceedingly deep and complex.

Many Divine Decree Lords would need long periods of time before reaching any sort of progress with any Heavenly Grade Dao Core Fragments.

Yet, things couldn't be smoother for Cain and Amber.

The sensations of Divine Lightning Laws and the sensations of Divine Shadow Laws. Both elements relate heavily to the principles of Yin and Yang.

Lightning Laws are more special as it contains principles of both life and death. The essence of lightning can both help create life and take that same life away within a second.

Mastering Divine Lightning Laws completely would require Cain to control lightning as a part of his body. He has already taken steps toward this, as he has great control over Draconic Lightning essence, being able to turn that raging force into a calm stream that can erupt with immense power.

As Cain comprehended his Dao Core Fragments, he took greater steps in turning Divine Lightning Laws into an extension of his entire being.

Divine Shadow Laws relate mainly to the combination of Yin and Yang. It wasn't pure darkness, but rather a force that is born from the Light of Yang and then the shadow of that very light.

As an aspect of Yin Laws, Shadow Law Force can absorb other energy forces, engulf a person into a world of endless shadow, or even sneakily creep up on any person.

Contrary to regular Yin Law Forces, Amber can either utilize her own Shadow for powerful attacks or simply create her own Shadow by the Law essence marks within her Inner World.

This provides Amber with a separate source of energy reserves, actually giving her deeper reserves as she doesn't need to pull more from her Inner World.

The shadow she creates or the shadow she already has would have its own supply of energy to attack with.

As Amber gained a deeper understanding of Divine Shadow Laws, she realizes her creation of Shadows can be extended to far greater heights.

Just like how Yang can't exist without Yin, the force of a Shadow will be ever-present, even in the darkest of areas.

Mastering Divine Shadow Laws would lead Amber on the path to drown out any room or even larger spaces with complete shadows.

The quiet calmness of Shadow perfectly blended with Amber's already somber personality. Under her heightened perception state, her cultivation speed was only slightly slower than Cain's. But even this far surpassed a massive number of other core-level geniuses.
