Chapter 183: The Opening

'What a rich source of energy!' Cain was already impressed. 

This quality of energy surpassed anything from the Crimson Sea Academy by at least six times! 

In this kind of environment, it would be far easier to absorb and comprehend Qi Energy. Even the most average of Martial Talents can see a tremendous cultivation increase within weeks of cultivating here.

This was the richness of a quasi-mystic realm. An area that's been fertilized for thousands of years by the Soul of the World and the formation laid down by the ancient genius experts!

In the eyes of the Jade Sword Palace, Martial Immortal Valley, and all other young geniuses here, they faintly felt this Heaven and Earth Origin Energy was divine. 

"Let's get in already!"

The numerous groups of geniuses unhesitatingly rushed into the Crypt Grave. Their speed was swift as they sensed around the Grave with a reasonable amount of thick Heaven and Earth Origin Energy.

One of the last groups to leave was the Jade Sword Palace youths. 

As they reared to go, Lin Zhi briefly glanced back to Cain's group. Seeing that the trio just calmly stood did inspire some questions within him.

But he didn't pry, only telling them, "I wish you all receive good fortune on this trip." 

And with that, he and his other group members rushed into the Crypt Grave. 

As the last ones left, Cain, Kali, and Amber finally strolled into the Crypt Grave. 

Slowly walking through it, Cain took a moment to sweep his gaze around. The interior of this Grave somehow looked more magical than the outside.

Every Grave seemed far more luxuriously, each exuding an ethereal sensation. Some Graves have thicker Heaven and Earth Origin Energy. While others carried a distinct odd essence that seemed familiar to medical resources.

As Cain slowly peered around, he carefully watched the other groups of youths. When one group got within inches of one Grave formation, a blinding light shot out and engulfed the entirety of them.

Afterward, a visible ripple of energy streaked the air showcasing a tear in Space! 

Cain was highly interested in trying to perceive this slight space tearing. But within a moment, the space tear vanished along with the blinding light and that group of youths.

It was a little bit regrettable that these space tears vanished almost instantly. 

Because Chaos Energy evidently has a connection with the Power of Space, Cain believed he could make even more advancements with Chaos Teleportation.

But it seems like his Martial Perception is too weak to try and grasp anything around here. 

Suddenly, Cain was broke from his musing when he felt an impatient tap on his shoulder. Turning around, he came face to face with Kali pursuing her lips. 

"Hey, are you sure you don't want to fight anything around here? Doesn't the temptation of a test of might boil your blood in excitement? With her here, we're quite a formidable force."

After reading about all of those deadly perils these quasi-mystic realms have to offer, Kali naturally wanted to experience a life-or-death situation. Or, at the very least, fight to her heart contents. She wouldn't feel entirely satisfied unless she could do so. 

But, at the same time, Kali couldn't rid herself of the subconscious attachment on relying on Cain's decision.

When it truly comes down to it, no matter her rising competitive spirit, Kali just had to admit that Cain can safely preserve their lives without any trouble. That damn teleportation ability was just too good.

So that's why no matter her own eagerness, she kept her most patient face in front of Cain. 

"Say, shouldn't you consult me before brazenly deciding my opinion? I mean, I don't mind a little battle but nothing too extraneous. That's just not for me." Amber unhurriedly spoke. 

She almost had a faint smile as she matched Kali's intent gaze. Between them, they both knew who Cain would incline to take sides with. 

And Amber honestly felt a bit inflated ego whenever Cain went against his dear sister. It just shows she indeed does have a special place in his heart. 

Listening to the girls, Cain stayed silent for a few more moments.

To fight here would severely limit the number of resources they can achieve. 

At most, Cain fathoms he could contend with an Early Stage Innate Lord expert. If he were to go all out, he was assured of a complete victory. 

But killing an Innate Lord being was another topic on its own. 

Failing to land a killing blow and that Innate Lord existence could escape from his claws by performing some secret arcane technique or using some kind of forbidden essence.

All abilities that can potentially put Cain in a precarious position. 

Defeating someone means their strength is slightly above them. Killing someone means their strength completely surpasses them or at the very least surpasses their foe battle potential. 

In this quasi-mystic realm, all kinds of unprecedented danger can befall them. And if Cain were to make a move believing his own confidence can handle everything, a deadly consequence can fatality happen to either one of them.

No matter his insane Talents, it will all collapse under the force of absolute strength. 

Even just barring all the safety reasons, there was also another critical reason Cain was exceedingly hesitant to fight and not score the best resources.

That is, the time limit he and Kali have for this planet. 

After days of slowly cultivating, Cain made an educated guess that his and Kali's cultivation wouldn't see a breakthrough until about a couple of weeks.

Because he wants perfect Martial Perception of Profound Qi and all of his other abilities, the sibling duo had no other choice but to take it slow. Their Martial potential and Dragon Charm could only do so much after all.

By the time they make it back to the Family, Cain at least wanted to be either Sky Ruler or Sage Core. That also goes for both Amber and Kali. 

If he could show his grandmother, his entire Royal Family that he can reach the Sky Ruler Realm in just three months, the benefits would be immense!

He would effectively show that his Martial Perception in Qi and Laws is at a genuine heaven-defying level, giving his Martial Road countless advantages. 

Plus, by showcasing that his combat prowess can eclipse an entire boundary with all of his incredible abilities, it'll suppress any and all doubts that he and Kali used special medicines to cheat their way up.

As of now, Cain has a true passion for surpassing the geniuses of his generations. He had legitimately gained a Spiritual Dependence on everything concerning Martial Cultivation. 

Comprehending Qi Energy is broadening his mind to new horizons that he never felt before.

And no matter how much he perceives, Cain still feels as if he's just a frog very deep at the bottom of the well. 

Furthermore, it was the utmost exhilarating to fight battles that'll make his blood absolutely boil!

This was a true passion for battle, to showcase to the entire world what he had spent days meticulously cultivating to perfection. All of this makes Cain feel completely alive, something he could've never achieved in his previous life.

And to reach the point where he can ruthlessly suppress his genius Dragon siblings, the best cultivation resources will absolutely be needed! 

Within just moments of thinking, Cain arrived at his conclusion.

"When leaving here, we can experience blood pumping action then. For now, I don't want any mishaps to happen, and I want us to gain the best rewards. So with my teleportation, we'll head straight for the thickest Grave's energy."

Cain had an absolute order in his tone. The drive within his heart incredibly surged when reaching his decision. He wasn't going to accept any other options. 

"Mn. Fine with me." Amber casually shrugged, not having much varying opinions in the first place. 

"Hmph. Well, whatever, let's get to it then." It took all of a moment for Kali to relent. 

When it comes down to it, she couldn't suppress a faint innate suppression that unknowingly stems deep within her Soul Core. 

Then, wasting no more time, Cain stimulated his Soul's Core, spreading his Soul Sense far out.

Compared to his Spirit Sense, his Soul Sense has a far easier time discerning thick Heaven and Earth Origin Energy or any other type of unique essence. 

Within moments, he found his target.

Settling his sights on particularly unique-looking Grave meters ahead of him, Cain confidently strolled forward. 

As they headed deeper into the Crypt Grave, Cain picked up that most of the other geniuses had already settled on their Graves.

But these youths didn't tread too far in. Their maximum limit stopped around 100 meters. 

No matter if they had Innate Core masters in their group, it would be impossible to overcome situations that even powerful Sky Ruler geniuses couldn't cross. 

By the time Cain's group was 300 meters in, there was nobody else around them. And at this distance, something strange occurred. 

Cain, Kali, and Amber arched a brow as they felt considerable pressure drop on their bodies.

Instantly, they revolve a small portion of Qi Energy, causing the pressure to alleviate significantly. Though they calmly dealt with it, the trio raised their guards. 

Kali and Amber narrowed their eyes, focusing square on the single Grave Stone just 100 meters ahead of them.

"The cause of that sudden pressure….is it coming from that?" Amber curiously asked. She was genuinely intrigued as this single Grave Stone appearance heavily differs from all others.

This Grave Stone looked too rusted, almost entirely decrepit. Large cracks split along its surface, gross-looking moss spread all over, and it had a far dimmer shine compared to all other Gravestones.

But, despite its ancient appearance, the Heaven and Earth Origin Energy were actually the thickest here! 

Moreover, when pouring his Soul Sense around this Grave Stone, Cain's eyes deviously glinted.

Closing his eyes, he poured the utmost focus into his Soul Sense. As he gradually harmonized with his Soul Sense, he slowly said, "Indeed, that Grave is exuding that pressure. In fact, if we're to go forward, the pressure will get even worse. And when we make it towards a certain threshold, we'll get forcefully teleported without even our knowledge. Around 10 meters from this Grave Stone, I can perceive that there is a separation of Heaven and Earth energy. I'm not sure what's causing the separation, but I am 100% sure that beyond this is the best resource here!"

As they listened in, Kali and Amber felt their shock increase. 

If the borders already had this kind of considerable pressure, what would 50 meters be like?

"Seems like this is a true test of geniuses. Perhaps only the extremely high-level talents can make it through here. And even then, they'll have to face a trial before the final trial." Kali threw out her analysis. 

It sounded reasonable to both Cain and Amber. But in the end, little trials like this lost all meaning to them. 

As his lips curled into a devious smirk, Cain said, "Well then, let's see just how impossible the final trial is."
