Chapter 231 - Reveal
Through the power of Soul Yin-Yang harmonization Cain and Amber's cultivation speed transformed into something mind-shattering!
If it were to be known that they used merely minutes to breach a minor boundary, the amount of blood vomited could fill up an entire ocean.
Even for just the early realms of Mortal cultivation, this was a feat countless ancient masters would find hard to accept. After all, wasn't this just a slap to the face from all their massive cultivation accumulations?
But even if others were to know about their tremendous cultivation speed, neither Cain nor Amber would particularly care.
In fact, the young couple was actually feeling exuberantly joyful.
At the same time, Cain and Amber flung their eyes open, both of their expressions morphed in pure glee. Now when seeing others, they felt as if their minds were on the same page; they could almost understand each other without even talking.
Such a feeling was intoxicating, virtually addicting in a way.
"This was…this was amazing!" Amber excitedly exclaimed, her body springing up from a burst of vibrant energy.
A brilliant shine glinted in her eyes as she coyly stared at Cain, showcasing a sensual expression that could completely entrance countless cultivators.
She continued to speak, slyly asking, "Mnh~, just what was this art? I feel like a transformation in mind and body! Now…I feel far more closer to you in ways I can't explain. Hey, just what did you do?"
Full of curiosity, Amber couldn't suppress her simmering questions.
In all honesty, she was expecting an intriguing, in-depth answer from Cain. At this point in their relationship, there weren't any barriers of even the slightest of mistrust.
As Amber put it, they were inexplicably linked; their bond is at an absolute high point and can only grow from here.
When considering this, Amber instantly sobers up into a solemn expression as Cain's face slowly shifts.
By just his brows creasing and his eyes shining a bit more critically, Amber could already tell this was no ordinary subject matter. For this, she sat still and calm, waiting for whatever Cain had to say.
And in her Martial Heart, she knows she'll accept it at all.
'Hmmm…this Soul link really is wonderful…' Before explaining, Cain couldn't help but remark within his mind.
Amber's subtle shift in demeanor was all caught by his eyes. Furthermore, Cain didn't feel any lingering nervousness or anxiety over spilling his secrets. Through this talk, their relationship will only grow.
Such feelings nearly made Cain crack a small smile despite the severity of his upcoming words. Truly, he's glad his determination paid off.
To him, being together was much more fulfilling than a secluded path. This was his inherent human nature from his previous homeworld coming to play.
Suppressing these thoughts, Cain sorted his words and began to say, "Amber…at this point, our minds are nearly linked, and we can virtually tell our thoughts by just looking at each other. Still, I have to ask, do you have absolute trust in me?"
"Fufu~."
All Amber's response was to faintly smile, lean over and give a chaste kiss full of warmth and affection upon Cain's lips. The blissful sensation of her soft lips upon Cain's was simply filled to the brim of her feelings.
Pleasure that stirred directly from their Souls coursed between Cain and Amber, causing them to both instinctively shudder in happiness.
After only a few moments did Amber pull back, her lips still blossomed in a mesmerizing sun glow smile. "I truly wouldn't care if you make me do anything boorish. Because I know, I can completely rely on you, and you can pour everything onto me. Just…don't hold me to the same crazy standards like your stuffy sister. Now then, enough with the sentimental stuff, let's get down to business?"
On the snap of a dime, Amber regained her serious expression visage. Anything with Cain, she'll trust the issue with the utmost severity.
Cain similarly turned solemn, saying, "Basically, I am not from this planet. You see, I am from the same place that Old Nox Soul is from. The God Galaxies. Up there are my and Kali's true origins. Below this Realm is the Divine Plane. This Plane is how Lower Realms people reach the God Galaxies. As for Kali and I, we used a more direct teleportation method, allowing ourselves to skip all process and make it to this Lower Realm Planet without a hitch."
When hit with such world-shaking news, any Lower Realm person would be struck silly while also feeling a vague sense of fear.
A Realm higher than their world?
That is only the works of true Gods!
All Lower Realm Martial cultivators and even World Spirit Masters are in absolute reverence towards any higher realms. Even if the Lower Realm person has no proper knowledge of higher realms, they will at least faintly know it's something they couldn't afford to offend or mess with.
This deterrence manifested from higher realms' absolute strength!
It was simply how the rules of life work. The weak revere the strong in order to preserve their lives, a natural status quo that most Martial Cultivators and World Spirit Masters ascribe to.
Not only for just this far, crueler universe, Cain can also say this holds true in his previous homeworld.
To typical bullies who hold superior physical strength, wealthy people with powerful social connections, and countries with far higher military force, leading to higher political power, the weaker people all submit in order to preserve their lives and live something they deemed as an ordinary life.
Even Amber, during her meeting with Old Nox Soul was absolutely left terrified in the face of such overwhelming strength. His powers were something she believed that no mortals could ever grasp.
Because of that time, one would expect that Amber would feel some kind of instinctive fear towards Cain's earth-shattering words.
However, all Amber merely did was curiously tilt her head, making her seem like a cute, curious cat. Her eyes shined with brilliance as her intrigue wildly surged.
She didn't hesitate to say, "No wonder…no wonder you have all these crazy achievements. You're quite literally beyond this world! So just what kind of place can even foster someone like you?"
Towards wanting to find out more about her boyfriend, Amber naturally couldn't suppress her questions.
The reverence of a God Galaxy?
The danger that can potentially come with it?
Amber didn't care about any of that! For as she has absolute faith in Cain to whether any and all storms together.
Absolute blind faith was the unmistakable symbol of their unbreakable Soul Link.
And naturally, such a response left Cain incredibly pleased and at ease. He then said, "As you guessed before, I'm not a human. I am actually from the Dragon Race and have Royal Tier Dragon blood flowing through my veins. Originally, I couldn't cultivate at all, but after a stroke of luck, I transformed my zero cultivation aptitude. Then with only Spirit Opening cultivation, Kali and I came down here for a little bit of pretraining."
"Eh? You couldn't cultivate?" Amber's brow knitted, almost in disbelief. "Then…just how long has it been since you reach here. I mean…even with your crazy Dragon blood, you wouldn't be able to look this young without cultivation."
"Oh this…well, she and I actually started cultivating just two months ago."
A causal bombshell was dropped. Not many things could genuinely stir Amber's emotions into a complete shock state.
But Cain's words were too much even for a disinterested Martial Cultivator like herself!
Her eyes nearly popped, her pretty little jaw slightly hanging open as she stuttered out, "Two-two months?? It really is two months…now I'm half attempted to call you two the insane siblings. You know the Azure Lightning Sect Master is said to have the highest Martial Talent here, but he only reached the Profound Soul Realm after 6 years of straight cultivation. Aiyaa…I really should numb myself by now…"
With this bombshell, Amber gently sighed, quickly dispelling all of her thoughts. Once again, she was taught that common sense and logic evidently don't apply to the crazy siblings.
Although she was a bit intrigued by how such extreme Martial and Spiritual Talents could be even birthed into existence.
They both seem like acts that were directly challenging the Heavens!
Such thoughts sound a bit…ominous.
'But…if they were like that, surely they should've been snuffed out or smited…ahhh… I'm just not going to think about it…' Amber shook her head of all thoughts that caused this uncomfortable suffocating sensation.
Pursing her lips, she then asked, "After knowing this, you know I have to ask, right? How come you and that stuffy girl didn't just stay in your Royal Palace? Surely, they would go crazy with this kind of Talent. Hell…I'm 100% assured that the Divine Kingdoms here will crush our small city for you two."
"Ah…the thing is…maybe it was cowardice or foolishness on my part, but I didn't feel safe showcasing extreme Martial Talent with zero cultivation. Even if my grandmother could protect me, I just didn't want to be chained down. Having all my decision decided for me, being implanted with whatever ideals that my parents or Elders have for me didn't sit well with me at all. Personally, I believe with our Talent, Kali and I have nothing to fear for visiting a Lower Realm planet with zero cultivation. And after three months, when we returned, I believed we would have a much higher chance to path away for our freedom in the family. But now…I have different thoughts."
"Hm? What changed? Truthfully, I'm actually in agreeance about not wanting to be shackled down. Though, I still think you should've taken more liberties before coming here. Just imagine if your luck was bad? That would be horrible, wouldn't it?"
Amber actually started to admonish Cain in a light, reprimanding tone. She wouldn't care about freedom or anything if it came at the cost of Cain's life. It was horrifying for her to think about.
Cain didn't offer any counterargument, completely agreeing with her. "I know, I see that now. And I suppose this is partially related to how my thoughts changed. I was always used to being a complete loner with only a few people that I actually care about by my side. And when I finally found the means to grow on my own with only Kali on my side, I believed it would be smooth sailing. However, there is no such thing as smooth sailing in life. My running away was only delaying the inevitable. And I also lacked the courage to effectively use my family to our advantage even if they are far more powerful than me."
"But now…after perceiving and comprehending the Heaven and Earth, transforming my mind, and staining my hands with this world, I understand that everything needs to be dealt with step by step and embrace any obstacle that hampers my way. Of course, I wanted to be a bit stronger because of my cautious nature. But, Innate Lord is good enough for us."
Sharing all of his beliefs and shortcomings honestly felt enlightening for Cain. It was like his mind was slowly alleviating itself of shackles he didn't even notice before.
"Mn…mn…nicely said…" Amber was nodding in approval until a critical light glinted within her eyes.
