Chapter 414 Heading Out

Cain's and Amber's soul connection couldn't be stronger. They only need a moment to understand their more decisive actions.

Cain then turned back over, nodding. "Lead the way, young master."

"Excellent." Zhou Ling didn't wait a moment longer. He shot directly into the skies, flowing quickly high and out of everyone's vision and ears.

Cain and Amber followed right behind at a leisurely pace.

As the geniuses left the field, discussions rapidly broke out.

"Isn't this a little too strange? Young master Ling is weaker, but he should have more money than them, right? Any of his issues should be resolved easily, right?"

"Now I'm really itching to know what's with all the secrecy."

A single line of thought ran through everyone's minds.

Just how can a high-ranking young master who already has an abundance of endurance needs a request from geniuses with zero previous backgrounds?

Though Cain and Amber are extremely powerful, it was quite obvious that the duo were perhaps the poorest geniuses around.

It was understandable, after all. Gathering money and resources was just another part of cultivation. At lower levels, no matter how high their prowess is, one still needs to do diligent work to collect what they need.

The only exceptions to this rule would be people born with powerful, influential statuses.

Thus, many couldn't help but wonder if some kind of hidden ploy was about to occur.

As the Tun siblings watched the do leave, slight worry crossed Tun Hao's face. She quickly transmission to her brother, 'Say...should we be worried about this? Young master Lei did tell us to treat the duo very favorably and help with any issues. Beyond that, I truly want to help them out.'

'Hoh? Truly want to? Already got swooned by Sir Lee's average yet overwhelming charm?' Tun Hong lightly teased.

A slight shade of pink crossed Tun Hao's cheek. Her mind nearly divulges into fantasy, just thinking off...'Ah! Stay focused, idiot! I'm truly serious here! Young master Ling could certainly still hold grudges for Sir Lee. Whatever that could happen may very well be insidious.'

'Alright, alright, just calm down, will you? I doubt young master Ling will try something like that after making a public show like this. Furthermore, those two probably have even greater items than ourselves to protect against greater threats. But, to appease your mind, I suppose it wouldn't hurt to ask young master Lei for more advice.'

'Ah. Then we'll do that.' Tun Hao internally smiled, feeling more relaxed about this sudden meeting.

....

After flying several miles into the skies, Zhou Ling suddenly stopped, prompting the duo to also stop.

Before either of them could ask any questions, Zhou Ling took out a small ring that spewed out a faint grey energy barrier.

When the barrier covered them, only then did Zhou Ling breathe a sigh of relief. "I'm glad that works. Only lords know how long this would've taken at any other busy day."

Zhou Ling had a surge of anticipation rising within his tone.

Catching on to this made the duo a little more suspicious. But they both knew they were completely safe while in the confines of the manor.

With a quick sweep of his Divine Sense, the duo detected this barrier was simply used to block off noise from leaking out. If Cain or hell Amber wanted to, they could shatter this barrier easily.

Cain cut to the chase, asking, "So? What is that young master Ling needs from us that requires so much secrecy?"

? "Trust me. This will not disappoint you. You see, I have various talented field scouts that constantly patrol out in the wild plains. Each of them is incredibly well-versed in the art of speed and gained several rare artifacts used for scoping out treasures. Just recently, one of my scouts picked up on an incredible find. He managed to pick out a cave leading to several fragments of Dao Cores! I trust you are aware of the specialties of Dao Cores." Zhou Ling had a devilish hint in his tone.

The temptation in his voice would be something even Divine Star experts would find hard to resist.

Cain and Amber were no exceptions. While their expressions remained calm, internally, they felt their excitement rise through their blood.

A Fragmented Dao Core!

These Dao Cores hold at least tens of thousands of times more Heavenly Dao essence than mere Dao Core Traces.

The Law essence and Nature Qi within any Fragmented Dao Core could even be helpful to a Primal Sovereign master. And this was an expect whose close to being equal with the Great Daos.

Fragment Dao Cores are specifically required for any Great Divine Sea cultivator to reach the Divine Star realm. It wasn't an exaggeration to say that a Fragmented Dao Core dictates a cultivator's future.

During their stay here, Cain and Amber read a lot about their future cultivation path. They were indeed more than aware of the value of Fragmented Dao Cores.

Because of their lack of ignorance, the duo was obviously not quick to jump on their offers.

Even a small amount of Fragment Dao Cores would be tremendously valuable, enough to a point where a Holy King would be tempted to move out.

Yet Zhou Ling, a Great Divine Sea genius, one whose urgently in need of Fragmented Dao Cores, is so causally telling them about this.

Only a fool wouldn't be able to smell the suspicions.

'Either this guy truly changed his ways or he is so desperate to kill us with this blatant plot. Maybe he's also banking on our arrogance to agree. No matter which way, this guy is most likely planning our downfall.' Amber instantly transmitted to Cain.

Killing intent had almost swelled within her. But she managed to suppress it, knowing it would do no good here.

Instead of sounding equally serious or grave, Cain's tone was completely relaxed. 'There's no need to be so on guard, you know? On pure power alone, we can dominate even Middle Stages Divine Star experts. On escaping from threats, not even a Divine Ruler can stop the power of 50% Chaos energy. I can't possibly match the Laws of a Divine Ruler. But tearing through their aura pressure with Chaos-space Laws is effortless. And besides...I kind of want a challenge. Been suppressing these weak people for far too long. My blood itself is getting restless.'

'You...haah...fine. Not like Chaos energy ever failed us before.' Amber relented with a blink of her eyes.

Not as if Cain said anything wrong in any case. Only a Divine Mortal like him can continually create great miracles.

Their conversation happened within only two seconds because of their Divine Sense abilities.

As Cain blinked his eyes, he gave a calm smile to Zhou Ling. "Alright then. We very much appreciate this generosity, young master Ling. In the future, we will be sure to pay you back."

"Excellent! Oh, and don't worry about any debts. Your trust is more than enough." Zhou Ling quickly tossed over a spatial ring. "In there is the map directly leading to the cave. I wish you two future success with your cultivation."

With one last encouraging smile, the talisman barrier around them shattered apart and Zhou Ling quickly flew off into the horizon.

Cain didn't spare another glance at him as he swept his Divine Sense through the spatial ring.

Bringing out the map, he and Amber's curiosity trailed it over.

Only a few moments of reading and the duo's eyes lit up. Amber pointed at one spot, saying, "Hey...this region? If I'm recalling right, this has to be close to where the Lake Of Sea was? Maybe after we finish this little ploy, we go back over there to test our look?"

Cain needed only a moment to think it over. Greed lit up his eyes. "As we are now, I think that would be a great idea. For now, though, let's go appease those two siblings and then finish up our real business."

...

In the foresty area of Wintry World's wild plains.

The forest here truly was of enormous size. It had to expand over at least hundreds of thousands of miles wide!

N0 v el Next. CoM

For a person like Cain who had already experienced numerous grand sights, he's always just in admiration at how expansive everything is. The rules of the Heavenly Dao really do wonders to the entire environment.

If Cain didn't have a correct map, he didn't doubt he would get eternally lost in such a massive area.

But above the forestry area, the wild plains were even larger than that! Perhaps it was several million miles long and wide.

Traveling across the wild plains or forestry area takes a considerable amount of time, even for Divine Star cultivations.

Not only does one have to deal with the constant threats of powerful Dao Vicious beast, but also the stronger World Source Laws permeating the atmosphere.

In lower God Galaxies, Divine Star experts can more easily travel through the Void Space by relying on the power of their Laws. This can't be accomplished in High realms as the average Divine Star expert can, at best, heavily distort space.

Only geniuses can break space apart through sheer power.

For Cain and Amber, there was no need to fly or use sheer power. The greatness of Chaotic teleportation tremendously helped with shaving off time.

They made great times that would leave even Divine Rulers green in utter envy.

Cain and Amber's destination was soon in their sights except for one minor hiccup.
