The Chaos Dragon Prince

"Of course, he would…" Kali muttered in frustration. 

Amber muttered in enraptured praise. She was the first to congratulate with a beautiful smile, "Of course. I expect nothing less from my man."

"Tch. What are you two getting so smug about anyways?" Kali's haughtiness returned in a split moment. 

She waved off the result, saying with fire in her ice-cold tone, "Next attempt, I will definitely leave you both far in the dust."

"I'm waiting to see it happen then." Cain smilingly said. A clear fighting spirit also burning within his eyes. 

After the trio's small interlude, they quickly healed up their injuries and reserves capacities. 

Then, without a moment of rest, they began cultivating all of their recent gains. 

Each of them assimilated into a cultivation state, bringing out several sun Crystal beads and Crystal Law Cores.

As their hands grasped the items, Elder Weilong decided to speak some words of advice. "Now then, you three must remember to not use all of your resources at once. Space them out and re-enter the Nightmare Realm. This way, you stretch your foundations to the limits for the next time you cultivate."

Cain, Kali, and Amber gave silent nods in approval. At the same time, their Soul Sense expanded, drilling into both the Sun Crystal Beads and the Crystal Law Cores. 

Their Soul Sense pulled out the essence within seconds. 

A faint rainbow color aura shrouded their body. It was the indication that the absorption process would be a perfect success. 

Cain's cultivation was specifically formulated at a faintly superior rate to the girls. 

Only those with an incredibly keen eye like Elder Weilong could notice it. 

'Such speed! Their attainment levels truly are high. The other Royal children will need at least a few minutes to obtain this state.'

Elder Weilong astonishment and praise only continue to increase. 

The trio only showed a short amount of talent. 

But Elder Weilong was beginning to see genuine hope. It was far quicker than any of the Royal children.

Essence from both Beads and Cores absorbed straight into Cain, Kali, and Amber's mental psyche. 

Comprehending and controlling double essence was an incomparably smooth process. 

Cain, Kali, and Amber all have varying degrees of success in both the Heaven and Earth path and the Source Law path. 

But in the end, each of them is firmly at the Advanced level. 

The degree of control a genius can exude in the Advanced level is dozens of times greater than any Adept level Peak success genius. 

It must be remembered that even a top-tier talent like Huang Rulong, a genius with high chances of reaching Divine Ruler, is still in Adept level Peak success for dozens of years.

His level of energy control is fundamentally inferior to Cain, Kali, and Amber! 

Cain controlled the double essences like moving another limb. The Crystal Sun Bead energy fused into his dantian, rapidly enhancing it.

While the Crystal Law Core essence fused into his mental psyche, similarly enhancing it. 

At the same time Cain was cultivating, he gradually felt the return of less the kind of gazes.

This time didn't dare use their Divine Senses because of Elder Weilong's presence. But even still, it was evident to Cain that his actions caused a violent yet silent storm.

These helpless Holy Lands did get Cain thinking. 

He has a clear advantage over all others, but what about his equally merciless and battle-hungry sister? 

Cain didn't open his eyes nor budged from his spot as he openly asked Kali, "Hey, I know you can just feel their hatred piercing into us. So? How many did you kill?" 

Kali nearly stifled her chuckle. "Obviously, nowhere near as much as you. Nobody is sparing Amber a glance, and only a few are glancing at me. But it's no matter. You're abilities simply work too well here. And in any case, who cares about unimportant people's feelings? This is simply the natural order in the works here."

Amber suddenly spoke up at this time, calmly saying, "My control is still inferior to you two. Trying to defeat or even kill one of the others would simply be too troublesome and cost-effective. I am grateful these robes drove off any potential energy wasters."

After she spoke, the trio promptly fell back into cultivation silence. 

Though, there was a clear sense of superiority running through the air around them.

.... 

At the highest mountain terrain, the Ancient Phoenix's terrain camp.

Three extraordinary youths stood tall and proud, their scorching gazes sweeping down below them. 

It was two handsome young men and one beautiful young maiden.

Each of them was wearing a similar design Phoenix robes as the Elders, but they held more intricate art. 

The two men were Fu Kang and Xun Ki. While the woman was Ye Bai.

These three were similar to Cain's group. Young uprising stars that have the potential to surpass those in their generations! 

They were carefully selected among millions of other disciples. Their intellect, foresight, and talent are far superior to the average genius. 

Thus, when gazing down the mountain terrain, the Phoenix geniuses merely spared a passing glance to the low to mid-tier Holy Lands.

And the Thunderous Sword Sect only earned a few glances but once realizing Qiu Lan wasn't there, the Phoenixes promptly lost interest. 

It was only when their eyes landed on the Huang Dragons did intrigue emerge on their faces.

"So it really is those three, huh?" Xun Ki started off. "Never would I expect two previous cultivation wastes and some Lower Realm waste to actually experience this amount of change. It still seems ludicrous thinking about it."

"Not only that, but that guy specifically sure is ruthless enough. Almost all despair is being caused by him. It really seems like he has some amount of skill to back up a portion of the rumors." Fu Kang calmly analyzed. 

Ye Bai blinked her pretty eyes as her lips curled into a faint smile. "With how ruthless he is, I wonder if he will come for us? These Huang Dragons are truly daring. They even dare to stand against the Radiance Luster Holy Lands."

Xun Ki lightly chuckled, incomparable ease smoldering his eyes. "Yea, and see how many times that were successful? These Huang Dragons are mostly likely to bark without a great bite. That fellow will know better than daring to challenge anyone of us."

"Still, his potential is evident. For now, let's continue to just gather information on him for Senior Brother Kun. Any potential unknown is better to be dealt with immediately." Fu Kang concluded. 

The trio Phoenixes took one deep glance at Cain before settling down to cultivate their own gains. 

...

At the far lower section of the mountain range. 

All the way down here contained the terrain camps of weak low tier Holy Land forces.

These Holy Lands can just barely match stronger low-tier Holy Land forces. And any mid-tier force can absolutely dominate them.

  Still, despite the massive power difference, even these low-tier Holy Lands have the occasional formidable experts.

At one of the far-off, secluded terrain camps, only a pair had gathered here. 

It was two men, one middle-aged and one in his prime youth. These two wore classical royal robes befitting of a Holy Martial Family.

They specifically hail from the Rong Martial Family. And this weak low-tier Holy Martial Family actually managed to produce several Divine Star experts! 

One of their Divine Star experts accompanied the peak genius as his protector for the Nightmare realm. 

Although, because these two arrived later than the others, they chose to bide their times a bit, wanting to get a scope of the competition.

After listening in for a small while, the Divine Star Elder and the young genius wore a solemn expression. 

The Elder warily and seriously said, "Lei'er, if you were to even sense a Huang Dragon, admit defeat without even turning around. Only then do you have a chance to preserve your life. The added threat of them does elevate this Nightmare Realm. But only with a true challenge can your potential fully take flight."

The young man Lei nodded though there was evident unwillingness filling his eyes. 

He had to ask, "Elder Lie, just how is one of the Huang Dragons so strong? Shouldn't we all have the same combat prowess in the realm?"

Elder Lie sighed, helplessly shaking his head. "I have no idea of the means he's using. But no matter what it is, it is coming from his own abilities. The Heavenly Venerate Dao Diagram would automatically dispel any foreign objects. Cheating is utterly impossible."

Lei was just about to respond when suddenly his and Elder Lie's vision turned dark. 

They both instantly stood to attention. 

Their gazes and Divine Senses spread all around them, only to witness something truly strange.

The black miasma mist that always stays just a few feet on the ground, far below the mountain range, had suddenly covered their entire mountain terrain camp! 

The mountain terrain was hundreds of meters above the ground floor and stretched on for a width of 2,000 square meters. 

To cover this entirety requires a considerable sum of energy.

And yet, the black miasma mist easily reached to engulf the terrain camp, completely secluding the Rong Family's duo off from everyone else! 

"Thi-this mist?! What the hell-"

Elder Lie had already revolved his Inner World, enhancing his defense but still couldn't finish his sentence. 

Not when the black miasma mist suddenly drilled into his and Lei's bodies!

Pain like no other exploded within them. Elder Lie and Lei's eyes nearly popped of their skulls, their bodies continually spasming. 

They wanted to shriek, but their mouths could no longer open anymore.

The miasma mist instantly corroded their Divine defenses to absolute nothingness. It rapidly wreaked havoc in their internal body, infusing into their organs, flesh, and bones. 

The miasma mist tore straight into their Inner World, similarly infusing all throughout it. 

Elder Lie and Lei's lifeforce rapidly slipped away at sonic speeds. Their last thoughts were warped with horror. 

Just what the hell kind of formless energy can kill off even a Divine Star exper?! 

A question never to be answered in their lifetimes. 

As merely seconds later, both Elder Lie and Lei's entire being was absorbed into the miasma mist.

They both silently vanished from this world for eternity. 

Within the miasma mist, a human-like figure could be seen. This figure seemingly curled its lips, a hoarse voice slowly leaking out from it.

"That Dragon is just too good. So much time was greatly shaved off because of him. Naturally…I have to graciously reward him." 

Afterward, the black miasma mist cleared away from the mountain terrain, returning to the ground level as if nothing had ever happened.
