Chapter 697 Staring Down A Dragon

The Heavenly Venerates paused, genuinely intrigued at what Cain will do.

While Zexi, Lan Rui, and Jin Ya began to go pale at Cain's sudden change.

Zexi mentally told him, 'Br-brother Cain! I know that you're crazily powerful, but this...this is a peak lord talent at half-step Primal Sovereign! His cultivation is unfathomable!'

Indeed, the mixture of Dao lights and holy lights coming from Death Long's body indicated he had taken a half-step into the Primal Sovereign realm!

He far transcended past a mere Holy King. No Holy King could ever be his match.

And yet, Cain acted like he didn't hear Zexi. In fact, he began to casually move his body. Completely unaffected by the half-step Dao principles!

Cain took a causal invisible step forward. He instantly tore through the law suppression, teleporting through the Void Space.

Like ghosts and gods, Cain silently reappeared mere meters from Death Long.

"This-is the Star Lord really intending on fighting now?"

Hushed whispers swirled all around. The anticipation was palatable within the atmosphere.

It was strange to feel so much emotion for a mere half-step Divine Ruler facing a half-step Primal Soverigen extreme genius.

But nobody could make a clear grasp of Cain's prowess. It seemed neverending as if he always has a card up his sleeve.

'Hm?' Venerate Ash tried narrowing his gaze on Cain. His soul suddenly gained this odd sensation.

However, the very moment he turned his attention onto Cain, a faint electrifying feeling rippled into his mind. His Dao powers were supreme. The principles exuding from his very immortal aura couldn't be touched.

And yet, this faint electrifying sensation made Venerate Ash pause. A clear sense of threat was within this electrifying sensation.

It did not matter at all that he was far within the Heavenly Venerate realm. All of his principles of the Great Dao faintly pulsated against this godly, electrifying sensation.

'Tch.' Venerate Ash directed his gaze straight at Azure Thunder. His deathly glare can cause worlds to crumble to dust.

But none of that had any effect on Azure Thunder. She fearlessly stared forward, matching Death Long's gaze with an indifferent look.

'Hmph. Her Holy Land may be weak, but she's still as troublesome as ever. As expected of a once top Divine Decree Lord talent.'

Venerate Ash declined from making any moves. That whole interaction occurred in less than a fraction of a second.

Nobody but Azure Thunder and Venerate Ash were aware of it.

And at the same time, Death Long was a bit startled at Cain's sudden appearance. His eyes narrowed, realizing that he didn't have any way to identify how Cain had moved!

Much less how he causally stepped through his Dao principle suppression.

Faint concern trickled his mind. But Death Long retained his supreme confidence, lightly nodding at Cain. "So it seems there are some truths to all these rumors. But still, do you know what you're up against? My realm isn't something any Holy King can match."

"Holy King?" Cain suddenly shifted his gaze. He stared at Death Long as if he was a complete and utter fool. "Whose say I can only fight with Holy Kings?"

'Bang!'

Supreme divinity exploded out of Cain's body! Intense divine lights filled the entire sky. Streams of glistening blue divine lights suppressed all opposing divine laws.

Chaotic whirlwinds tore through the land. The ground violently trembles.

All geniuses, even the Heavenly Venerates, stared up in shock. The divine lights quickly cleared away. What was revealed shook nearly everyone to their cores.

"Ah-ah! Two-two divine bloodline phantoms! He-he has two divine bloodlines?!"

Many geniuses shrieked in complete horror. Indeed, before they and everyone else eyes, two divine phantoms had manifested out of Cain.

One of them was his terrifying, divine lightning dragon. While the other was his horrifying divine Ice Phoenix.

Both divine bloodline phantoms majestically glisten right above Cain's head. These two immemorial creatures elevated Cain. His presence became overbearing and his law principles turned extremely suppressive.

Even peak Holy King masters were clutching their chests for air. They and many other geniuses needed to fly far away from Cain!

It was difficult for even the lesser geniuses to fly far. Specks of frost glisten across their bodies. While others experienced a painful searing upon their skins.

The law principles amplified by the power of a bloodline were supreme. Ice Phoenixes freeze anything in its path. While the thunder Dragon turned everything in its way into ashes!

Many geniuses exerted their Inner World. Energy rose as their powers shot up. However, many supreme law principles simply could not counter the terrifying cold or deadly thunder.

It was only when the Dao protectors and elders erected a divine shield around their geniuses that could they all rest easy.

Still, the horrifying force Cain was exuding worried many of these Dao protectors and elders.

"You..." Death Long's eyes were open wide. All arrogance vanished into complete smoke.

Before Cain, his soul experienced a very clear threat of immense danger!

"Hahh!" Not one to be outdone, Death Long exploded out a booming dragon roar.

Screeching cries of a noble dragon rippled into the divine world. Deep black divine lights blossomed out of Death Long. They had all converged into his bloodline phantom, manifesting into a full black divine dragon.

It turned into a tense standoff. However, it gradually became apparent who was more dominant.

Death Long's divine dragon phantom tremendously amplified his mixed Dao and Divine Law principles.

But, it simply stayed suppressed under Cain's frightening glare!

The terrifying divine law principles of death were meant to corrode all in its path. The divine phantom of Death Long could drain away lives with a mere stare.

However, these death law principles were either frozen into chucks or completely incinerated into ashes!

Specks of frost even began to faintly glisten across Death Long's divine Dragon phantom.

The power of peak Holy King laws. The power of faint Primal Sovereign Dao laws. These powers should be invincible across the Holy King realm. Even other half-step Primal Sovereigns doesn't dare to causally mess with Death Long.

And yet, his Dao Law principles simply could not match Cain in his current state.

How could it match it?

Previously, Cain was only slightly weaker than the Celestial Fey princess. And she was in peak Holy King while Cain was merely in late stage Divine Star.

Now, after progressing from not just the peak stage to half-step Divine Ruler, his prowess was utterly terrifying!

The faint power of grasping Supreme Divine Law principles was enlightening.

Amplified by his bloodlines and Chaos energy principles, this was more than enough to confidently stand against foes above the Holy King realm!

Cain casually smiled. His divine bloodline phantoms seemingly smirked as well. "Well? Do you want to have a quick bout?"

Death Long clenched his palm. He was seconds away from bursting right at Cain. The frost appearing on his divine Dragon phantom began to corrode into dust. His Inner World was nearly beginning to violently pulsate.

However, before Death Long could take any action, his eyes flashed. He paused, appearing slightly unwilling, but in the end regained his calm.

Death Long recalled his powers and nodded at Cain. "It seems I was in the wrong. I hope we can truly test each other soon."

With that, he quickly flashed right back to Venerate Ash Long. "I'll be waiting."

Cain calmly stated, while recalling his powers. As he flew down to Azure Thunder, the geniuses and even the Divine Decree Lords could not stay calm.

"This guy!" Lord Hao's voice boomed with crackling thunder. "What a badass! I rarely saw anyone make that dragon back off who wasn't in his own family. Alright, I've decided. I need to fight with him."

"He is indeed greater than the rumors or what's shown..." Lord Jian murmured in a slight daze.

While Nether Devil, Lord Hai, and Lord Zhihao went silent and focused.
