Qiu Lan was briefly stunned. Her eyes that were once dazed and confused started to change.
Indeed, wasn't this her number one goal ever since she began her Martial journey?
To reach the absolute peak of the Way of the Sword!
Not just her, but it was the dream of thousands of others in her own Sect. And many were still burning with absolute aspirations even with knowing about the Divine Mortals.
Qiu Lan could even see it within her own Sect Master. His confident, unwavering stride that was as sharp as a Sword never once rippled.
Would she just willingly accept her fate of never being able to surpass not just Divine Mortals but other great geniuses?
Qiu Lan looked deep inside herself, quite literally harmonizing with her Soul's Core.
A moment later, she came to her decision.
Of course she won't submit!
Her Martial Heart is unbreakable with an unfathomable momentum just like the presence of a true Sword.
No matter how many heaven-defying talents are out there, all that matter is her own Sword Way.
Qiu Lan visibly shook, her expression morphing back into her once natural calm.
The vigor in her eyes valiantly burned. It was as if golden lights of Sword essence were swirling within the depths of her pupils.
Qiu Lan nodded to Cain, precise determination plastered on her face as she said, "Thank you for the advice, Cain. Next time, I hope our duel can last just a little bit longer."
With that Qiu Lan swiveled around with newfound motivation and swiftly left the courtyard.
Cain gave a silent nod of approval at her departure. His intuition didn't fail him. That Sword genius girl just needed a slight push in the right direction.
Her mental state was and still is continually tempered by the Divine Essence of the Heaven and Earth. It was only inevitable that she could regain her footing so quickly compared to those in the Mortal realm.
The speed of her thoughts basically worked at a lightning-like rate when compared to Mortals.
At this time, Amber suddenly spoke up. "Still though, that tale was pretty intriguing. I was looking over the library but couldn't get a scratch about the Sea Realm Master's true past. It's always just legends of his glorious feats."
"That's because grandmother kept this jade scroll hidden from everyone else. Not sure why but since I have it, you two can now read it." Cain explained.
"No matter the past and what actually happened, I say, Cain, didn't you give that sword girl almost too much hope?" Kali's tone was extremely blunt.
She didn't hold back on her opinions as she said, "Truthfully, I can only see her going as far as a potential mid or late-stage Divine Ruler. I doubt she has the potential to even reach the Holy King Realm."
Her tone simply didn't hold a shred of sympathy. Cold and ruthless words as she is prone to be.
Cain didn't reprimand or defend against it. He actually seriously considered Kalis' words.
Nove l B(in).C OM
Truthfully, she really didn't say anything wrong.
Cain could tell that there are simply limits that no amount of determination or drive can overcome.
Unless Qiu Lan experiences a heaven-defying chance, her Martial Road most likely won't reach the height of even peak Divine Ruler.
But even so, Cain wasn't quick to knock off Qiu Lan. He gave a light smile, shrugging while saying, "Who knows for sure of her future? Don't forget, grandmother did say luck plays a tremendous role in anyone's journey. Perhaps she could enhance luck and reach the Holy King realm because she never gave aspiring for those lucky encounters. Either way, it won't hurt us having as another motivated rival."
Kali stayed silent, honestly mulling over the factor known as luck.
Although Cain said that Shi Wei taught them about luck, what they know barely scratches the surface.
Nove l B(in).C OM
Cain could only say he knew for sure of a couple of things.
Firstly is that all lifeforms are born with some kind of luck. It is scarcely known, however, of just the type of luck one can be birthed with.
Even the greatest Heavenly Venerates legends can only make educated guesses after hundreds of years of research.
,m Secondly is that luck is a genuine determining factor in how far a genius can grow.
Geniuses who continually push past their limits, reaching heights that can stand near the peak of the Martial World, all have had experiences of immense fortunes. There wasn't a single top expert who hadn't experienced a massive fortunate encounter.
Thirdly is that World Spirit Masters who invested in the Luck Path can directly tell what items can improve one's luck and the vague sensation of their luck.
It was an amazing ability on paper. But in reality, luck path World Spirit Masters are just as rare as Wisdom path World Spirit Masters. Their scarcity for entirely different reasons however.
Wisdom path World Spirit Masters can attain terrifying abilities that make even the strongest Heavenly Venerates master's foreheads drip with cold sweat.
If these people can't be completely controlled, then more violent means are taken.

Because of the nature of society, it was only inevitable that the higher up specifically targets Wisdom path World Spirit Masters.
Thus, either a Wisdom path World Spirit Master is dead or is controlled by quasi or full Heavenly Great Worlds.
Luck path World Spirit Masters are scarce not for the threat they exude, but rather the difficulty to study luck was unfathomably high!
It was said that only World Spirit Masters who are nearly equal to Divine Mortals can achieve success in the luck path.
And there isn't any need to go in-depth about just how scarce the birth of a Divine Mortal is.
The Divine Boundless Heaven is an extremely large Heaven that seemed practically endless.
Experts truly are as common as the cloud in the skies.
But even so, the luck path is one of the biggest mysteries plaguing society.
Its mystery makes luck a mix of danger and great rewards.
Cain could at least say he believes in a random variable known as luck, then something as vague but also incredibly restrictive as fate.
Cain shook his head at these thoughts. He opened his mouth, about to suggest continuing training.
But right then, a flash of blue sparkled within the sky.
The flash was bright to an unimaginable point. It even outshines the radiance of a Sun created by a Fire Path expert!
N0 v el Next. CoM
Cain, Kali, and Amber snapped their gazes to the skies. Their eyes started to widen in gradual amazement.
The blue streak seemed like a stuff from legend.
It was quite literally tearing the sky in half!
Within the blue streak was an abundance of blue light that all exuded the essence of space laws. These blue lights converged together, taking the appearance of a luminous wormhole.
That tearing of Space Laws was clearly perceived by the trio. Smiles full of eagerness simultaneously appeared on each of their faces.
Kali suddenly broke the silence, speaking with fervent excitement. "Well, would you look at this? It's almost time for the party to begin!"
....
The Divine Boundless Heaven is an infinitely mysterious Heaven. It's exact size is nearly impossible to tell.
Many peak Martial Cultivators and World Spirit Masters attempted to explore every inch of it, only to come out as failures.
But while it is impossible to fully explore the Divine Boundless Heaven, its inhabitants were able to tell its structure.
The Void Space in the Divine Boundless Heaven is separated into six realms.
These realms have invisible borders that separate from one another. Only through unique means can one traverse through these invisible borders, either accessing a lower or higher realm.
At the very bottom of the six realms were the Mortal Lower realms. Here, the natural essence of the environment was Heaven and Earth's Origin energy. The poorest quality of all nature energy of the Divine Boundless Heaven.
Above the Mortal Lower Realm was the Divine Plane Realm.
The Divine Plane still had an abundance of Heaven and Earth's Origin energy. But there was also a considerable amount of Heaven and Earth's Divine Essence.
Though this Divine Essence ran incredibly thin compared to even Low God Galaxies realms.
From Low to Middle and then High God Galaxies, these three realms were practically the central hub of the Divine Boundless Heaven.
Over half the Heaven's population gathered in one of these three realms.
And above these three realms was the absolute summit of the Divine Boundless Heaven. Heaven and Earth's Divine Essence had thousands of times greater purity and richness here.
The World and all other various Source Laws fueling this realm were similarly thousands of times more superb quality than all other realms.
The Void Space geographical environment had an endless variety of sights.
To colorful divergent realms, extremely massive primary planets that were millions of miles in diameter, dangerous asteroid belts filled with mysterious powers, it would be hard to not get lost in this endless sight.
Any mortal simply living here could directly become a cultivator with Martial talent considered outstanding for the Mortal Lower realms.
Indeed, this beautiful realm was the Heavenly Great realm, where all Heavenly Great Worlds reside!
The very summit of the Divine Boundless Heaven lies here. Here was where the legendary Heavenly Venerate Masters and their unfathomable disciples live out their extraordinary lives.
One of these massive primary planets held a noticeably darker complexion.
A dreadfully dark aura exuded out of the planet, creating a mysterious black smog that engulfed a thousand-mile radius in the Void Space.
Such a unique style of environment could only belong to the Dark Dragon Heavenly Great World!
At the direct center of the World contained its most impressive sight.
A glorious immortal palace the size of at least two mortal continents took reigns there.
The immortal palace was a sight to behold.
Floating celestial mountains with crystalline spring waters, other smaller-scale floating immortal palaces, and a luminous shiny sea that exuded lights of Water Law essence were all sights to behold even from hundreds of miles away.
An overly grand structure like this could only contain the peak forces of the Divine Boundless Heaven.
Naturally, it was the imperial palace of the noble Dark Dragons!
This imperial palace couldn't be put on the same level as the Huang Dragon's imperial palace.
Peak level Martial cultivators and World Spirit Masters alike gathered here to form a force that is quite literally Heavenly.
Mere peak Middle-tier Holy Lands such as the Radiance Luster Sect couldn't hold a single candle to it.
