BXBX NOVEL Chapter 665 Weapon Hunting
Considering the lack of help Master Xing had earlier, it made sense for there to be a shortage of Holy King masters.
But Cain could now see why the Astral Demons and Moon Order masters were disdainful of the Lightning Wind Rocs.
Under Master Xing\'s lead, nobody stopped them from going deep into the base. The group quickly entered a small manor, eventually reaching the imperial chamber where all important meetings were held.
"Haah..." Zexi, Lao Heng, and Master Xing all breathed out slight sighs of relief. It felt much better to be in their home base. Plus, with the presence of Cain, it felt noticeably safer to be in the comfort of their own home.
Cain could understand their feelings. But at the same time, he really did desire to go back to his realm and find Kali as soon as possible.
He spoke up, directly asking, "So, I don\'t mean to hurry you all. But I am a man of action. Mind telling me what these divine spirits\' golden blood is? And for that matter, just what is going on overall here?"
The three Rocs were quick to sober up. None of them would dare displease someone like Cain.
Master Xing took the lead as he explained, "To spare you a long explanation, basically, us disciples are sent out here for the experience and to achieve certain tasks that\'ll promote our cultivation. It\'s true for us and the other two Holy Lands. Our current task involves collecting the elixirs of the divine spirits\' golden blood as you might have heard. It\'s a powerful resource used to enhance our Inner World and Spiritual Sea. There\'s both an abundance of heaven and earth\'s essence and high-graded dao principles within this blood."
"And naturally, the other Holy Lands can\'t simply accept you all taking such a valuable resource." Cain nearly scoffed as he spoke. Treating the issue of two holy land pressures as a nonissue.
The three Rocs all nodded with a grimace.
Zexi said, "Indeed, we have garnered far too much attention than we like. And our forces...well, as you can see, are not the greatest. I hate the others with a furious passion. But even I can see the disparity of disciples."
"Mn." Master Xing exuded a long sigh. "Our own Divine Decree Lords are in close-door cultivation. And there aren\'t any available middle stage masters to lend us assistance. The only possible option we have now is to forcefully make our peak early stage master breakthrough. But that will only make their combat prowess weak. And time won\'t wait for us. What\'s worse, the Divine Decree Lord of both the Astral Demons and Moon Order is here on the same mission. They are called Master Pan and Master Yi. While not as ferocious as other Decree Lords, they\'re not something any middle stage would ever want to face."
"And I\'m assuming that unless you can complete this mission, it\'s impossible to return home, right?" Cain questioned.
And Lao Heng gravely nodded. "It\'s just how things are run out here. It really is sink or swim. But at least we have some time to come up with a plan of action, thanks to brother Cain."
At this time, Zexi slightly narrowed her eyes. A question was on the tip of her tongue. But she hesitated, unsure of how to bring it up without having her hopes crushed.
After all, what were they really offering Cain besides simple information and a small base? He really didn\'t have any obligations to stay around to help.
However, before anyone could say anything else, Cain suddenly spoke up. "This seems a bit interesting, so I\'ll lend a hand. Plus, those Astral Demons simply annoy me. Now then, do anyone of you happen to know where I can get a low-grade Saint Weapon for free. It could be from a treasure spot. Or even a base from an opposing force..."
His words rippled through the atmosphere. Master King, Lao Heng, and Zexi jolted up.
Was this a god given opportunity?
None of them were quite sure what to make of it. The luck of having an extreme power like Cain on their side would possibly be enough to turn the tide in their sect\'s favor!
The three Rocs didn\'t hesitate to latch onto this opportunity.
Zexi smiled with glee as she cheerfully giggled. "Oh, this is just perfect! So many times have those damn Astral Demons raided our base without care! Hehe~. Alright, here\'s the thing. There\'s one particular base of the Astral Demon with a terrifying weapon. It\'s called the Frost Slicer. A peak, low-grade Saint Sword that can power even amplified the most ordinary of cultivators to an extreme genius level! The trade-off is its high energy usage. But I don\'t think this will be an issue for brother Cain."
"Perfect. Zexi, come with me and show me the way. This will get done in an instant." Cain naturally barked out orders.
Really, any Saint Weapon would suit him at this point. But having one related to his main law principles was a great bonus.
"Ah-" The three Rocs were a bit surprised at Cain\'s decisiveness. Zero hesitation at all about assaulting a base most likely crawling with other Holy King masters.
But their minds quickly recalled that last dominating display. With prowess like that, why hesitate?
"Alright. Let\'s go!" Zexi quickly calmed herself and got next to Cain.
"We wish you luck." Lao Heng and Master Xiang calmly nodded.
The situation was developing at a lightning-like speed. But, they are cultivators with Divine Wills. They know when to quickly adapt. Plus, with Cain\'s prowess, it would be better to go with the flow than put themselves in danger that could\'ve been easily avoided.
Cain calmly nodded, grasped Zexi\'s shoulder, and took an invisible step forward.
The duo teleported through the Void Space, instantly appearing high in the skies.
As the faint green lights disperse, Zexi blinked her eyes. She was in a bit daze. Having the ability to simply teleport like taking a stroll is simply far beyond her comprehension.
But despite her awe, Zexi didn\'t delay. Divine lights rippled out of her pupils. Her vision transformed, showcasing a world completely different from any other cultivator.
Her gaze pierced through space, specifically locating one special base of the Astral Demons.
Several mystical lights glimmered within her vision. Everything primarily being suffocating silver astral essence.
But Zexi heightened her mystical eyes. She tore right past all the silver astral essence, specifically locating a faint trail of icy blue light.
Simply staring into this icy blue light caused a shiver to trail through her very soul. This ice law principle was far beyond her standard of comprehension.
A force that existed within the Holy King realm!
Zexi held a slight smirk. She pointed forward and said, "Right over there is the Frost Slicer. Brother Cain shouldn\'t have too much problem taking them down."
"Right." Cain calmly spoke, though he did flash a brief, curious gaze at Zexi.
Her mystical eyes had actually managed to see the principles of a Holy King level force. A worldly force that no Divine Ruler expert could even think about seeing.
Those mystical eyes truly have amazing, supportive abilities. And Cain wonders if they could be used in combat in any way. Such as seeing the weak point of law attacks to weaken the foe\'s force.
But that was all for another time.
Cain wasn\'t a particularly bloodthirsty person. There was hatred for the Astral Demons. But he wasn\'t about to unleash a massacre on every Astral Demon he sees.
He took one teleportation step to get close to the Astral Demon slave camp. Close, but shrouded in his Chaotic Concealemeant, no other Astral Demon could possibly sense him.
