Chapter 540 Hostility

It's no secret that Cain and Amber allied with Wen Dao at first and subtly became enemies with Wen Shao. With how much rapid growth the duo experienced, many expected some grand event to play out.

However, the Divine Decree Lords still stayed deathly silent. They practically acted as if the duo didn't exist at all.

Some were befuddled at the lack of reaction, while others could faintly understand them.

Cain's and Amber's growth were just too fast for anyone to predict. The duo also never overstepped their boundaries and stayed to themselves.

Before one knew it, they both have already become direct disciples of the Supreme Elders! Not even other high-tier Holy Lands would dare to provoke Cain and Amber anymore.

The Divine Decree Lords' reactions seemed appropriate. Although, some couldn't help but think there was a mysterious storm brewing on the horizon.

On this day, inside the direct disciple quarters, at the neutral cultivation ground.

Flashes of electric dark blue and luminous icy blue lights filled the cultivation ground. Every light rippled with profound energy principles.

Space heavily distorted all around the area. The pressure from these lights could instantly collapse half-step Divine Rulers to their knees.

The cause for these light rays came from two figures who had their palms open while manifesting streams of their Law essence energy.

The lightning dark blue lights came from Cain's palm. While the luminous icy blue lights came from Lan Rui's palm.

Off to the side, Amber casually obverse them with a plain expression.

Cain and Lan Rui displayed the utmost focus as they analyzed each other essence energy principles.

Lan Rui was speaking words of advice, saying, "The Dao of Ice is an extreme, evolved force of the Yin Element. It counters the properties of Yang and can even seal off death itself with coldness. Your mind must be smooth as water to further your comprehend its properties."

While she spoke, all of Lan Rui's Divine Sense focused on Cain's Draconic Lightning energy principles.

Her Spiritual Sea had scanned many energy principles in the past. Some even left a lasting impression on her for life.

But Cain's energy principles struck a cord in her soul. Never before had she encountered energy principles so dense and complex, but also very enlightening!

One must not forget that the more complex an energy principle is, the far harder it is for a Spiritual Sea to perceive it. The Spiritual Sea would only experience a confusing misty sensation that throws a cultivator's mind into chaos.

Lan Rui, a genius with expert control over Supreme Divine Ice Laws, felt equally confused and enlightened over Cain's energy principles.

There were aspects she simply couldn't understand at all. Her own Supreme Divine Law principles wouldn't be able to compare!

At the same time, there were aspects that slightly broadened her mind. Topics and questions she never thought about before only revealed themselves the longer she study Cain's energy principles.

Internally, Lan Rui couldn't help but marvel at Cain's terrifying prospects. 'Such principles without attaining Supreme Divine Laws! When he does reaches Divine Ruler, just how much greater will he be? Even then, just what kind of Dao Source Core will he grasp just in the Divine Star realm? I'm afraid his talents still run deeper than we give him credit for. He even has Ice Laws under his control...'

Indeed, Lan Rui knew all about Cain's comprehension of Divine Ice Laws.

In itself, two Dao Laws wouldn't be the cause of considerable unrest. Many lesser talented disciples can just barely grasp two Dao Laws.

But of course, Cain's Divine Ice Laws were on an entirely separate tier from his peers. His Quasi-grandmaster attainment put his Divine Ice Laws at a near-equal level with Draconic Lightning in terms of complexity!

If this set of Divine Laws can truly equal Draconic Lightning, Cain's combat prowess would turn unfathomable.

Lan Rui didn't even want to guess how high Cain could go. She only felt a bit confused about why kept his second Dao Law a secret.

And in all honesty, Cain wasn't even particularly trying to keep his second Dao Law a secret. It was just that he never had a reason to show it off. His Quasi-grandmaster attainment was enough to sweep all other disciples and heavily awe the Elders. There wasn't really any point in showing off anymore.

Though, this didn't mean Cain would slack off in his Ice Law comprehension.

Lan Rui became a good source of training for Cain. With his black lightning stimulating his Spiritual Sea, many mystical principles of Ice Laws revealed themselves to Cain.

He was rapidly nearing true perfection of Divine Ice Laws. Naturally, his Lightning Laws were also nearing true perfection.

Cain could already complete his Divine Laws comprehension at any time. The only reason it was going this slowly was for his density and complexity foundations to be absolutely extreme.

A considerable amount of time has passed since the duo began their sessions.

Amber, who stayed silent in Spirit meditation, suddenly flung her eyes open. She slowly stood up, crossing her arms as she stared to her right. A slight sneer tugged the corner of her lips.

At the same time, Cain and Lan Rui were aroused from their cultivation state.

Cain dispersed his Draconic Lightning while maintaining a calm expression. Unending confidence exuded from his entire bearing.

Lan Rui's brows twisted in puzzlement. She slowly muttered, "So many of them at once? Really?"

Hearing her, Cain and Amber nearly chuckled out loud. Amber's tone was slightly exasperated as she transmitted to Cain, 'So they finally couldn't wait any longer, huh? How long do you think this will take?'

'With our rapid improvements, as long as we use near our full powers, it will be quick. Compared to others, we rarely have to worry about conserving reserves.' Cain stated as if it was a simple fact.

Not a single bit of hesitation could enter the duo's body.

At this time, space from hundreds of meters away from the trio distorted before cracking open.

Five beautiful youths slowly walked out of the space crack.

Three of them were extreme Dragons amongst men. A majestic bearing exuded from their natural presence. If placed in the mortal world, even the air itself would lower to them. As if the natural rules and Laws of the world are starting to lose their hold over them.

Their Divine Ruler's Aura rippled out at full force!

These were Cloudsea's brilliant direct disciples!

The three men were Lin Zui, who the duo met previously, and two newcomers, Ji Zhao and Hao Han.

Out of the three, Lin Zui's aura stayed the calmest. While the newcomers had a subtle aura of hostility.

Heat, extreme heat, rippled from Ji Zhao's eyes. One would feel they were being tossed into a boiling volcano by simply getting close to his presence.

While Hao Han had a far deadlier sword presence than what Jin Bo could possibly exude. His entire domain was the sword. Stepping into this domain and would have to face the sword that can reap their souls from existence!

Towards the overbearing momentum of Ji Zhao and Hao, Cain and Amber barely regarded it. Their minds barely felt a trickle.

Turning to the other two disciples, one was who they could identify and held the weakest aura of them all. She was the energetic, beautiful Dragon maiden, Yulong.

Despite being next to Divine Rulers, she was able to walk at a comfortable pace. Not because of her own prowess. But because of a special brace on her wrist that exuded a faint white glow.

Next to Yulong was another beautiful maiden. Every step this maiden took seemed to vibrate the ground but also appeared as if she didn't step on the ground at all.

Sturdy and powerful, yet also mysterious and elusive. With a single stomp of her foot, she could sink an entire country to dust! At the same time, a stomp of her foot could teleport her through an entire country!

She was another powerful direct disciple, Yi Jun.

Her Divine Aura wasn't as overbearing or intense as the others. However, she still presented a firm stance against Cain and Amber. Her pride, just like the others, had a hard time believing everything that had occurred within these last days.

Cain and Amber lightly regarded the group of Divine Rulers. Top-tier geniuses of this generation weren't enough to make the duo even crease their brows.

Before they could speak, Yulong had suddenly run up forward. She ignored everyone else and eagerly spoke to the duo, "Martial siblings! It's always good to see you two. But it seems trouble is brewing your way."

Her tone wasn't concerned. But one of great confidence. As if the ones the duo were about to face weren't Divine Rulers, but some ordinary targets.

Yulong mentally transmitted to the duo at the same time, 'Cain, Amber, I'm sure you know Lin Zui. But those men are Ji Zhao and Hao Han. The girl is Yi Jun. They certainly come to stir a scene. If this is a problem, I can get these pompous fools to fall back very easily. None of them dare to provoke me.'

Cain and Amber briefly snapped their gazes at Yulong. A small feeling of sentiment gave birth. It wasn't necessary for this situation, but Yulong really did bring the utmost sincerity to their relationship.

They are working together to get home. But Yulong still takes that extra steps for them.

Cain faintly smiled at Yulong. 'There's no need. Things will be over quickly.'

'Mn. I thought so. This will be exciting to watch! And you don't have to worry about the shockwaves for me. Elder Rian gave me a bracelet for these kinds of situations.' As Yulong spoke, she quickly shuffled to the sides.

At the same time, Lan Rui furrowed her brows. Her tone was a bit colder as she said, "Martial siblings? The meaning of this? It appears you all are quite eager to stir up a storm."

Lin Zui was actually unwilling to participate in the impending chaos. He shuffled a distance apart from the others.

While Ji Zhao, Hao Han, and Yi Jun calmly stopped in their tracks. They spared Lan Rui a single glance before focusing on the duo. Rising fighting intent was clear in their eyes.

Ji Zhao confidently said, "There's no need to get worked up yourself, Martial sister. We all hold competitions amongst ourselves all the time. Since they are direct disciples, things shouldn't be different, right?"

Hao Han nearly broke out into a smirk. He was mentally transmitting to his partners, 'With those two overconfidence, it's very unlikely they'll accept help from Lan Rui or...her. I really want to see just what kind of cheap tricks they can pull out before we thoroughly show them disparity.'

Yi Jun giggled while transmitting, 'Hopefully, they'll last longer than a couple of moves. Otherwise, it'll be too embarrassing!'

Ji Zhao, Hao Han, and Yi Jun's bearing didn't hold any hesitation as well. Even though they knew clearly what happened during Lin Zui and Lan Rui's first spar, they were completely unwilling to believe non-Divine Rulers were on the same level!

Supreme Divine Laws are a small portion of power from True Great Dao Laws. While Divine Laws are merely the Superficial Great Dao. The difference can't possibly be crossed no matter what!

Even Lan Rui went a bit cold to herfellow direct disciples. 'Those three are always ready to make an enemy...'

Lan Rui had genuine admiration for Cain but still couldn't get rid of her biases. After all, they didn't go all out in their first duel.

Thus, Lan Rui started to slowly stimulate her Inner World, ready to put a stop to the other arrogance.

Before anyone else could speak up, Cain loudly chuckled. He clasped his hands, putting everyone's attention on him.

His calm gaze swept through the Divine Rulers geniuses who stood at the top of the younger generation. "If you want to fight, don't waste time or words. What truly matters is our action!"

In that moment, a slumbering aura furiously roared out of Cain and Amber and washed away the clouds!
