Such strenuous work even made Cain and Amber feel a bit fatigued at times.
However, all of their hard work paid off in the end.
Cain had finally breached Late Stage Great Divine Sea, forming over 200 essence Marks! Every essence mark was, of course, filled with exceedingly deep and highly complex energy principles.
His Divine Lightning Law comprehension as well reached the Peak Stage, giving him a full 70% control over Divine Lightning Law essence energy. This, of course, increased the base power of his already powerful Draconic Lightning essence.
Amber had made the exact same progress. She as well reached the Late Stage Great Divine Sea and Peak Stage of her Divine Shadow Law comprehension.
In her Spirit energy, she had finally reached the Peak Layer, giving her 80% control over red-class Spirit energy.
Thanks to the Source of Spirit Art, her rate of improvement has seen a monstrous increase. It would be even more if she didn't use it sparingly to cover herself from the masses.
With their improved cultivation, their prowess increased by leaps and bounds.
Cain simply knew that absolutely no half-step Divine Ruler can challenge him or Amber if she fully uses her Spirit energy.
But this all came at a cost.
The Heavenly Grade Dao Core Fragment, a very potent resource that can make highly talented disciple rush through the Great Divine Sea realm, now only had 10% of its essence energy!
This left Cain and Amber a little exasperated. They knew their Inner World was far more special than others. But they didn't think it would be to this degree where their essence marks need exceedingly rich resources to advance.
Soon enough, they were going to need similar quality resources to simply reach the Extreme Great Divine Sea stage.
But that was a problem for the near future.
While their cultivation resource left them a bit confused, Cain and Amber could at least take solace in that their Soul Cultivation has greatly improved.
To their shock, the Soul Nourishment Art actually went perfectly with their Divine Seal Art. Their Soul Cultivation has amplified by at least four times with it.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAs of now, Cain's Inner Soul World has 400 Soul Law Marks while Amber has 350 Soul Law Marks.
They still weren't close to the required standards of what an Inner Soul World was supposed to have at this point. However, this high amount of Soul Law Marks brought a qualitative change to their soul energy.
Their comprehension ability and energy control ability considerably improved. Performing complex Martial Skills came more naturally and used a little bit less of their energy reserves.
The improvement of Cain's soul especially helped with his Chaos energy comprehension. At the end of his hard work, he was now only steps away from reaching the very peak of the 3rd layer.
The Chaos Words no longer gave him a great migraine and started to make a small amount of sense.
Cain and Amber also didn't forget to improve their weapon energy comprehension. Their current comprehension made them feel completely at ease when using them in an intense battle.
It wasn't close to being 50% of its full power, but still enough to tremendously boost their prowess beyond belief.
With everything they have now, the duo knew it was finally time to complete Elder Heng's mission.
On this day, Cain and Amber had left their residency, flying and then teleporting straight into the general plaza of the Holy Land.
The duo was prepared to continue toward the transmission array that took them to the outside world. However, at this moment, a voice called out to them and a Divine Aura rapidly approached.
"Martial brother, sister! Wait up! I have decided!"
Amusement danced in Cain's and Amber's eyes. The duo looked over to see that Jin Ya hurriedly flying over to them. Determination filled her face as if she had just made a monumental decision.
Cain internally remarked on Jin Ya's current cultivation. 'She's just a step away from the Middle Stage. Her Divine Aura also feels much more denser and a bit misty. People on her level would barely be able to comprehend her Divine Aura at all. Not bad...'
On her own, Cain didn't believe Jin Ya could make such progress. He fully knew well she had such high achievements because of his personal training with her.
Jin Ya was a diligent student who took all of his teachings to heart.
Though, Cain was glad the teaching mainly rely on the precise manipulation of his lightning energy principles. Through this way could Jin Ya come upon her own discovery about her cultivation.
Xu Tao and Hu Wen were the others who also benefited from Cain's principles guidance. Although, their rate of improvement wasn't as significant as Jin Ya's.
Cain simply chalked it up to Jin Ya's more determined Divine Will of self-improvement.
At this time, Jin Ya had already stopped close to the duo. She calmed herself with a deep breath and then transmission to them, 'If you two have no trouble with it, then I would like to come along for this mission.'
Cain and Amber weren't surprised at her proposal. In fact, Cain was the one who informed Jin Ya of Elder Heng's mission. It wasn't particularly a great secret in the first place.
Moreover, Cain felt that Jin Ya would genuinely benefit from real-world experience.
Before coming here, she practically lived a life of a wandering vagabond to steadily improve on her cultivation. Higher intense situations should be able to provide much more benefits to her mind.
Amber only kept her faint amusement towards the situation. She transmitted to Cain, 'Had a feeling a similarly crazed cultivation nut wouldn't miss out on this chance. She better be mentally prepared.'
With a small smile, Cain transmitted to Jin Ya, 'Alright, since you decided, you can come along. But, you'll need to listen to our instructions. Is that okay?'
Jin Ya nodded without any hesitation. 'Naturally. It's already enough that you two are gracious to take me along as I burden. I won't do anything else to drag you down.'
She spoke as if she was just a damsel latching onto the duo. But truthfully, Cain and even Amber know Jin Ya can contend with ordinary Middle Stage Divine Star warriors.
When considering the average masses, she's far cut above the general populace of Divine Realm cultivators. But at the same time, it's also a good mindset to know one's limit and when they're hopelessly outclassed.
Cain nodded at Jin Ya and turned over to Amber. 'Alright, come on. And when we leave, don't resist any energy that comes around you.'
The trio made great haste without a second of delay. They smoothly enter into the transmission array leading to the outside world.
As the sensation of space twisted and sucked them, the trio opened their eyes to the clear skies right above Sky Bless City.
Cain scanned his gaze over the enormous metropolis of a city below him, noting that it's been some time since they have last seen the outside world.
Amber wore her typical plain expression while Jin Ya took one look over Sky Bless City before settling her attention on the duo.
She curiously asked, "I've wanted to ask before, but just how will we travel? Do you have a secret transportation out here? I would've believed you would already have gotten a beast's mount before leaving."
It's no secret that Divine Realm cultivators are unfathomably powerful and extremely fast. Just with their Inner World alone can some Divine Star cultivators surpass the sound barrier.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe rare cultivators with space affinity can traverse countries in mere minutes.
But for long-distance traveling, going at high speed was cost efficient.
Not everyone was like Cain with abnormal energy reserves that allow them to continually use power like its nothing.
Even Primal Sovereign Elders utilize long-distance transmission arrays, beast mounts, or Spirit Ships. Some beast mounts and Spirit ships signify the great status of a cultivator.
Cain could've used a beast mount to showcase his high status as a Holy Land top disciple. But he didn't want to waste time with that kind of white noise.
He simply told Jin Ya, "In my cultivation, I have a movement art that's better than using external means. Don't resist my energy."
As he finished speaking, Cain waved his hand, casting out Draconic Lightning essence. Streams of electricity converged around the trio, forming a solid barrier.
Unknown to Jin Ya, Chaos energy flowed all throughout the Lightning barrier.
Jin Ya perked up. She scanned the barrier's energy principles with her Divine Sense and began perceiving its complex principles. Throughout it all, she never once sensed Chaos energy principles.
However, Jin Ya wouldn't get the time to obverse. Not when she felt the sensation of space rapidly twist.
Before her eyes, the scenery turned into a complete blur!
Her Divine eyesight couldn't make out anything. It nearly felt like she was getting teleported through a transmission array!
Only difference is that this is of Cain's own prowess.
Jin Ya couldn't help but think, 'Is this his actual ability? Then again, in all of his fights, whenever he moves, it's practically instantaneous. The rumors Lee has a space affinity might not be false after all...'
At this time, Cain hurriedly teleported them to the mission point. His Divine Sense could route out the perfect way as he recalled Elder Heng's map to the absolute t.
In only a few seconds, the trio had teleported out of Sky Bless City and into the massive wild plains.
Cain didn't stop teleporting, crossing hundreds of miles of distance in seconds.
Nearing the peak of the 3rd layer granted him further ease with controlling Chaotic teleportation. Plus, his Inner Soul World also cut the cost of teleportation and minimizes the strain on his soul.
Nobody could stop the trio even if they wanted to. Cain simply went far too fast for any Great Divine Sea or Divine Star cultivator to respond to.
Around twenty minutes later, the trio had ended up in the same jungle they used to head towards the Lake Of Stars.
