Chapter 385 Divine Ascension (1)
Compared to other races, Dao beasts would be far more affected by a Dragon\'s presence. It was a natural process of their evolution.
Out of all monstrous beast races, Dragons will and have forever stood at the very top.
Immemorial Dragons exude a natural soul suppression on all inferior Dao beasts.
This python Divine Ruler beast, as powerful as the skies, couldn\'t help but shake in utter fear.
Cain simply smirked and pointed his finger straight at the python beast.
With its target chosen, the purple Dragon suddenly erupted a profound killing intent! All of its Divine aura specifically smashed right down on the python beasts. Its massive jaws snapped open as the beast unleashed a soul-stopping roar.
"Houu~!!"
The purple Dragon soared forth, flickering right out of Cain and Amber\'s visions.
In the next split second, the purple Dragon was right upon the python beast.
There wasn\'t any complicated cultivation art used or unique energy flow exuded out. A Spirit Artifact serves only one unique purpose.
And for this purple Dragon, its purpose was to crash upon its foe with a monstrous striking power!
The purple Dragon shimmered in a blinding flash. All of its Divine Qi and Divine Law Source engraved within its long body erupted all at once!
This was a full strike by a Divine Ruler. Its mere aura fluctuations caused 300 feet deep craters to burst open the ground enforced by Divine essence.
From far back, Cain and Amber were protected by a faint purple light. Without this, their bodies would\'ve already turned to dust by the aura fluctuations.
At this time, the python beast savagely hissed. Green poison Law essence shrouded its huge head, forming its greatest defenses.
The beast had no other options but to ram the purple Dragon head-on!
\'Bang!!\'
A terrifying explosion of energy violently shook the land for hundreds of miles.
The shock waves carved out a huge portion of space. A spatial tearing of about 50 feet had appeared within the energy collision.
Shooting out from the wild shock waves was a huge green light.
The Dao beast got sent flying like a shooting star. Its massive body blasted out for hundreds of miles within a mere second.
Spurts of its sickly green blood dyed the land wherever it soared. This green blood melted the ground and sizzled anything else it touched.
Even the blood from a Divine Ruler beast was this terrifying.
"Now!" As the Dao beast flew off, Cain and Amber flew off, making a beeline straight towards the grass moss cave.
They turned into streams of light as they instantly crossed over 100 meters, entering inside the grass moss cave.
At this time, the Dao beast was hundreds of miles away. It also couldn\'t even detect the duo under Chaotic Concealment.
When entering the cave, Cain and Amber were promptly pulled by the sudden space Law essence. Their surroundings twisted all around.
Blinking their eyes, the duo saw that they had ended up in a strange altar room.
The design here was too complex and unique that neither Cain nor Amber could identify anything. It felt like they had entered into a space belonging outside of the Divine Boundless Heaven.
As Cain silently gazed across the altar room, he suddenly felt a tingling sensation in his palm. He looked down, open his palm, and saw there was now a small little relic charm.
The relic charm had a beautiful translucent blue skin and was engraved with the exact same design patterns decorating the altar room.
Cain briefly looked behind him, only to see a wall blocking where they came from.
Turning back around, Cain slowly said, "It seems this is some kind of cultivation formation. Grandmother told me about this before. But she said such a thing takes a tremendous amount of energy and Law sources from high realm cultivators. I\'m surprised something this precious is simply sitting out in the open."
"Out in the open but protected by a beast that can turn invisible and is at the Divine Ruler realm." Amber retorted.
She quickly spread her Spirit Sense and furrowed her brows. "You know, this does have a similar style, at least to the cultivation formation I previously read. But...why can\'t I sense any presence of energy?"
Cain slowly caressed the relic charm in his hands. His Spirit Sense swept over it, just barely detecting a hint of essence.
The essence was very similar to what he detects when studying other souls\' cores!
A thought sprung into his mind as Cain. "This soul relic must be related to a Heavenly Venerate with soul laws attainment! I can just barely perceive soul essence, even with my underdeveloped Spiritual Sea. Alright, since we\'re here, let\'s not waste time."
The duo cautiously walked towards the center of the altar room. Though things appeared harmless, the duo didn\'t completely leave their defenses down.
But, even when reaching the center, nothing tried to jump out at them. With everything appearing to be safe, the duo recalled the procedures of a cultivation formation.
They sat and assimilated into a cultivation state while keeping their eyes open.
Cain exchanged one more glance with Amber, nodded at her, and then set his sights on the charm relic. He surged his soul energy and slowly poured it into the soul relic.
A stream of soul energy absorbed into the soul relic, causing it to slightly pulsate. Over time, the pulsation began to rapidly increase.
The soul relic violently trembled before suddenly leaping out of Cain\'s palm and flying straight towards the altar at the back wall.
The soul relic seamlessly fused into the altar.
A moment later, the whole altar room gleamed with a brilliant white glow!
Cain and Amber were shocked. They felt mesmerized by the beauty of the white glow and detect a strange, unknown essence suddenly pouring out of the altar in massive quantities.
This essence contained power that neither Cain\'s nor Amber\'s Spiritual Sea can possibly comprehend.
The altar\'s white essence split off into different streams and then soared into Cain\'s and Amber\'s bodies separately.
It was like the altar had a limitless supply of white essence. It continually absorbed into the duo\'s bodies without any sign of stoppage.
The duo experienced numerous potent sensations all at once. They had to close their eyes and focused on the various changes occurring within their bodies.
Their cultivation rapidly soared, their Spiritual Seas advanced at an unfathomable pace, and a load of information entered the duo\'s mind.
Cain was utterly ecstatic. This altar\'s essence is actually the mysterious soul essence! And not just any soul essence, this was the soul essence the mysterious Heavenly Venerate Soul dutifully cultivated!
Any Laws a Heavenly Venerate cultivates are on equal standing with the grand Heavenly Daos.
So naturally, Venerate Soul\'s soul essence provided tremendous and automatic benefits for Cain and Amber.
The power of the soul was just like the power of the Heaven and Earth or the power of Spirit Laws or the power of Source Laws. It is another great source of energy that can rival the power of a whole universe!
To cultivate the soul was a mystical process. It requires one to have a tremendous amount of belief within themselves.
This belief can transcend what Martial Cultivators develop within their Martial Hearts. It\'s a mental fortitude that can never be broken and only grow continuously.
If one wishes to cultivate the soul, the process would take an unfathomably long time.
Even though Cain and Amber were directly absorbing a small portion of Venerate Soul\'s essence, it would still take them a bit of time to digest it all.
However, within Cain and Amber\'s clothes, a silver light flickered out. The light carried the majestic presence of a True Dragon.
It was indeed the precious Dragon Charm that can greatly benefit the duo cultivation.
The Dragon Charm acted as if it had spirit within itself. A refreshing aura released out from it and engulfed the duo\'s body.
Under the Dragon Charm\'s aura, Cain and Amber\'s bloodline started to intensely stir. Dragon essence within their veins surged and released an intense suction force!
Upon contact with Venerate Soul\'s soul essence, their veins greedily sucked in the soul essence at an astonishingly fast rate.
Through their bloodline veins, Venerate Soul\'s essence could smoothly and quickly travel throughout Cain and Amber\'s entire being.
In any cultivator\'s body, the bloodline veins are the central hub that connects all magical spaces and independent dimensions. It connects to the dantian, Spirit Space, Soul Space, Astral Space, and the Spiritual Sea.
Typically, absorbing any type of energy through the veins is a dangerous process. One wrong mistake could cause one\'s bloodline veins to combust from an overload of energy, directly crippling them.
Or worse, dying outright!
However, there was one difference Cain has that even extends to Amber. That is the presence of Chaos energy within their bloodline Dragon essence.
The power of Chaos energy stands at the absolute summit of the universe.
As far as Cain could tell, it\'s perhaps a source of power even greater than the Heavenly Dao themselves.
Considering that pure Chaos energy can even hide from Heavenly Venerate Nightmare Lord\'s Divine Sense and even trap his remnant soul so easily, that assumption wasn\'t exaggerated at all.
No matter the case, Chaos energy had caused Cain\'s bloodline Dragon essence to be immensely sturdy. Even under great pressure of an abundance of energy, it barely shook.
And because Amber continually sucks Cain\'s bloodline essence into her veins through her innate vampiric abilities, she too has an immensely sturdy bloodline vein.
Thanks to the Dragon Charm stimulating their bloodline Dragon essence to unleash the suction force, Cain and Amber were now experiencing improvement at literal light speeds.
