The Chaos Dragon Prince

Cain's firm tone left absolutely no room for refusal. It didn't matter that there were a bunch of higher-level Profound Soul experts or a half-step Innate Lord powerhouse; Cain exuded an indomitable pressure.

His gaze unwaveringly focused on Liang He, never bother to glance at the other supreme Elders, treating as if they were thin air. 

This kind of indomitable momentum naturally affected all supreme Elders there.

They honestly couldn't say it was just ignorance or foolish arrogance. The pressure from Cain was honestly too immense! 

Each of them did have dark thoughts over Cain forcefully demanding their secrets, but there was nothing they could do.

All they could do was place their hopes in Liang He, hoping he could create some sort of miracle. 

At the same time, Liang He had surprisingly calmed down. His posture no longer had any vert tension.

With ease, Liang He pulled out his spatial ring, tracing it and flashing a brightly colored substance upon his palm. 

The instance the substance appeared, a wave of pure Lightning energy swept the entire room.

Streaks of miniature purple Lightning sparsely flashed from the substance, briefly lighting up the room as its potent Lightning Aura swept through all there. 

"Mn?! L-leader…" 

The supreme Elders couldn't contain their calm when seeing this substance. They all nearly jumped from where they stood. 

Even Cain, Kali, and Amber intently focused on the Lightning substance floating upon Liang He's palm.

The Lightning substance was of a brilliant purple shine and revolved into a circular shape. Peering into the depths of the Lightning ball, one can see tiny crystal bolts of thunder shimmering within.

As Cain poured his Spirit Sense into the Lightning ball, he became increasingly impressed. The Lightning Energy here was even more potent than what he perceived in Crimson Sea Academy!

This was no small matter at all. 

Crimson Sea Academy has been enriched with the best resources for hundreds if not, thousands of years. The mass amount of resources they can accumulate for their training realm is at a level nobody in the Tribal Domain can comprehend.

Furthermore, Crimson Sea occasionally receives resources and help from the World Spirit Master Branch. 

Realistically speaking the Elemental Energy they formed should be the highest within this whole region.

However, all of that gets flipped on its head when considering this small Lightning ball. 

In numerous aspects, the Lightning ball has Crimson Sea Academy far beaten.

Whether in terms of Lightning potency, Lightning perception energy properties, or pureness, this Lightning ball is far superior! 

Just how the hell does such a small level Tribe gets their hand on a powerful resource?

But then again, as Cain deeply thought about it, how the hell can a small level Tribe receive help from the World Spirit Master Branch unless they have incredible treasures like this.

If Martial cultivators were to catch wind of this, undoubtedly, they would force Liang He to give up this Lightning ball. 

Hell, Cain fathoms the more domineering Martial Sect would plunder the Liang Tribe because they have a great treasure like this.

But for World Spirit Masters, they would only care about receiving a continuous supply of valuable treasures like this. They didn't need it for their own strength but could use it to manipulate Martial Sect even more.

Not only did Cain realize this, but also Amber and Kali quickly understood this significance. 

As long they can prove to be useful, the World Spirit Master Branch would have no reason to outright ignore them.

Everything was slowly piecing together, but Cain didn't have too much thoughts about this. The greed in his eyes was evident as he practically treated the Lightning ball as if he already owned it.

When seeing that kind of look, the other supreme Elders became increasingly worried. 

Liang Je attempted to talk, his voice coming out as a mere whisper, "Le-leader…should we-"

"Shut up." 

Liang He's tone was forceful, leaving zero room for any discussion. His ice-cold Aura drilled into the other supreme Elder, shutting them up instantly.

Quickly shifting his expression back to a friendly smile, Liang He told Cain, "I see esteemed guests are greatly interested in this. You see, this is how our Tribe rose to prominence so quickly. Our ancestors left behind several Elemental Spirits that we can use bit by bit to infuse into Clansmen. With a specific World Spirit Master formation, our Clansmen were able to divide the High Human Grade Fire Spirits we had and tremendously boost their cultivation. I'm sure esteemed guests saw how powerful our Clansmen were when coming here."

Cain was silent, giving his tactic agreement. No wonder that all the Liang Tribe they killed only used Fire Energy. Their entire Mortal Body was tempered by the power of this so-called Elemental Spirit.

As Cain was quiet, Liang He continued to say, "Out of all the Elemental Spirits we had, most of it got sold off to your World Spirit Master Branch. But we do have ones that are of the utmost importance. This Lightning Ball is an Earthen Grade Lightning Spirit and is probably the most valuable in the whole City! It will be extremely beneficial to even esteemed guests."

"Hmm…Elemental Spirits, huh?" Amber suddenly decided to cut into the conversation. "That fellow isn't wrong, you know. Even for someone as crazy as you, it will greatly boost your affinity."

Curling his brows, Cain asked, "Really? Just how so?" 

"Ah, like this fellow was hinting at, Elemental Spirits can be infused inside that specifically attributed cultivator's internal body. This will permanently increase the rate of their Qi absorption and perception towards that Elemental Energy. It also can make one's foundation incredibly deep. For you, there is no other better reward."

Cain silently took in the information. Indeed, there would be no better reward but, his mind focused on the fact that this Tribe needed World Spirit Master help with these Elemental Spirit.

He felt as if there was something this Liang He wasn't telling him. After all, a quick increase in power always comes with drawbacks. 

Turning his attention back on Liang He, Cain asked, "Just where do these Elemental Spirits comes from. And how exactly did your Clansmen absorb this?" 

Liang He didn't hesitate nor show any varying expressions. He promptly answered, "I'm sure Sir has heard of Quasi-mystic realms before? Well, you can say these Elemental Spirits are similar to that. They're the acclamation of the pure various Origin Energy of our World. The Will of the World birth not only Elemental Spirits but also all other kinds of Energy Spirits. They can be related to the Sword, Spear, or any other kind of unique energy. The known ranks are Human, Earthen, and Heaven Grade. And just Earthen Grade alone can make the entire nine Provinces go wild with greed!"

"As for absorption, our Tribe has to pay a tremendous sum for your World Spirit Master Branch for help. It's not impossible for a Martial Cultivator to absorb a Spirit on their own, but doing so will almost assuredly lead to your death or cripple. A World Spirit Master makes the process entirely smooth, allowing even the weakest of Martial Cultivator to absorb these Spirits."

"I see…" As Cain rubbed his chin, seemingly in thought, he actually spread out his Soul Sense to cover the Earthen Lightning Spirit. 

And it wasn't just his ordinary Soul Sense but was linked to his Chaos Energy!

Under this state, Cain could perceive even the most minuscule of essence he wouldn't be able to before. 

During this whole time, Cain felt increasingly weird that Liang He was putting such a big chip on the table.

Because of his World Spirit Master status, it would make sense that Liang He would try to desperately curry favor. But, out all past transactions Liang He had with the World Spirit Master Branch, only now did he take out such a valuable treasure?

This was far too suspicious. 

And as Cain's Chaos enhanced Soul Sense covered the Lightning Spirit, his heart turned ice-cold. 

But, to not arouse suspicions just yet, Cain confidently smirked and said, "Really is a priceless treasure. Since that's the case, I'll accept it on behalf of the World Spirit Master Branch." 

Even at this point, Cain still didn't see any change of expression on Liang He's face. Even his Aura attempted to stay calm. 

But, nothing could escape Cain's Chaos Enhanced Senses. For the briefest of moments, he picked up on a twinge of excitement and decisiveness from Liang He's Aura.

Evidently, this wasn't any ordinary dark intention. This maliciousness that came straight from his Martial Heart, his very Soul! 

When a Martial Cultivator has the extreme Will and or desire to kill or crush someone, it will manifest within their Souls.

If that Martial cultivator is strong enough, their Killing Intent can unleash an essence that could cut the fires of anyone's life! 

At a weaker level, it can cause innate fear to be born.

This was a fear similar to seeing an executioner blade right above their heads. The cold shine of a deathly blade was far too oppressive, almost like seeing the jaws of death right there!

And such a Killing Intent emitted from Liang He for just a split second. 

In that moment, Cain probed his Senses around the room. And to his expectations, nobody, not even Kali or Amber, reacted.

But this didn't bother Cain in the slightest. 

Without saying anything, Cain raised a single finger, summoning a trail of Draconic Lightning Energy to cover it.

Streaks of blue light flashed, and only a tiny portion of Cain's Aura was released. This was barely even a quarter of Cain's power. 

However, despite how minuscule it was, the Supreme Elder and Liang He were all taken aback.

Their Spirit Sense detected a sizable threat just from that small trail of Draconic Lightning Energy! 

This heavily dense energy was similar to being dozens of meters away from a wild hurricane; there was an evident slumbering power within this boy!

'This… he's just an Early Stage Profound Soul kid, so why is this Aura so dense…' 

Liang Je and all other supreme Elders had the same line of thoughts. 

Even for a genius, isn't this far too exaggerated?

Liang He was similarly taken a bit back by this density Aura but wasn't too largely affected. All he waited for was Cain taking the Earthen Lightning Spirit.

When putting on this show, Cain's primary purpose was to simply disguise his Chaos Energy. The fact that these men and women felt a little threatened was just an added bonus.

Deep within his Draconic Lightning energy, to the point nobody else could see, it was a trail of Chaos Energy. Wanting to be as cautious as possible, Cain didn't hesitate to pull out his best arsenal.

And with a flick of his finger, Cain sent out a small stream of Draconic Lightning energy. 

The Draconic Lightning stream instantly wrapped around the Earthen Lightning Spirit, simultaneously engulfing it in Chaos Energy.

In this briefest of moments, Kali, Amber, and the supreme Elder intently looked but didn't have that much change in expression. Nobody was expecting anything unexpected to suddenly pop up.

At the same time, Liang He couldn't help but keep his eyes glued to the Earthen Lightning Spirit.. He was waiting for something to happen, something that could entirely shift the balance of this meeting.
