Chapter 254 - Space Laws

Within the small world's martial field, residual Ice, Lightning, and Shadow energies tore the ground for several miles. 

From the destruction, any Martial cultivations would be able to perceive the signs of talented geniuses fighting.

As of now, several minutes have already passed since Cain's group entered the illusion-killing array. And each of them was making significant progress, stretching to the limits of their abilities again and again.

Each of them spared no expanse, going for the most efficient and quickest kill possible. 

Barely any of their phantoms could exchange propers moves with them. Even the ones that could had their defenses brutally tore through in a couple more moves. 

'Crack~!' 

With a sickening crunch, Cain had just finished crushing the skull of a Late-Stage Sky Ruler Phantom.

The phantom instantly combusted into origin energies and seeped into the atmosphere. 

Cain's cold smile was ever-present. He was experiencing the joys of fighting and crushing his opponents very thoroughly.

With this, he honestly couldn't wait until he was able to venture not this massive universe. The blood pumping situations would be endless! 

Even after fighting four opponents back to back, Cain didn't feel any fatigue.

In fact, he was feeling more vibrant than ever! 

With an eager step forward, a strikingly new phantom had instantly formed, releasing waves of a far mightier aura. 

"Oh?" This phantom piqued Cain's intrigue slightly more. 

Emitting out this phantom's body like a powerful storm ready to tear the earth was the aura of a peak Stage Sky Ruler phantom! 

Compared to all other phantoms, this one bearing underwent dramatic changes.

The energy flowing out of it was far more controlled, ready to erupt into massive attacks within just a second. Any Late Stage Sky Ruler falling under this aura wouldn't be able to ignore an considerable pressure.

The dividing layers within each cultivation boundary always represent a significant change. 

For example, from Late to Peak Stage Sky Ruler, one's dantian accumulation would be at least ten times superior. 

To a Peak Sky Ruler's Heaven and Earth Origin energy and Minor Law essence, both received continuous qualitative changes that make the difference in each minor boundary akin to a great chasm. 

Furthermore, the level of control one can exercise over their energies would enhance to grandmaster level, being able to draw out nearly the full power of the middle form of Heaven and Earth Origin energy; Sky Qi, and Early Stage Minor Law essence.

As for this phantom, its deep accumulation was powerful enough for Cain to curl his brows in interest. 

Truthfully, if this was a real outside world genius, he would treat this a bit more seriously.

But within this fake world, these phantoms could only rely on Spirit Weapons and their powerful foundations. 

So far, Cain hasn't encountered any phantoms that were using cultivation manuals Arts, or Martial Skills.

Furthermore, each phantom only displays roughly the amount of average intelligence rather than genius intellect. 

If these phantoms had all of these facets, their threats would be raised by numerous degrees!

After all, cultivation manuals Arts and Martial Skills can tremendously enhance any Martial Cultivator's combat prowess beyond their ordinary limits. These Arts and Skills also hold various specific abilities one wouldn't be able to have with just standard attacks.

Easier as it may be, Cain certainly wouldn't mind if he had to face enemies like this. Through repeated combat, he was perfecting his utilization of energies along with his battle instincts.

Both factors can be significant determiners in any life-or-death situation. 

But with a peak Stage Sky Ruler phantom, Cain was satisfied enough. His smirk rapidly grew as he raised his Spiral Sword, preparing to rush right in.

However, before he could even think to move, the phantom's hands were engulfed in a brown energy coat. 

The instant this brown energy appeared, the essence of Minor Earth Laws crazily spread.

Cain paused, faintly surprised. 'So these phantoms can use at least a minor form of skill!' 

The previous phantoms he fought would gather their energies through their Spirit Weapons to unleash a standard attack.

While this one was immediately revolving its energies in a specific pattern,  evidently summonsing a particular Skill. 

And within just the moment Cain recognized its mode of action, the phantom was already done preparing!

With a soft clap of its hands, the phantom clasped their palm together, causing Minor Earth Law essence to wrap around its entire body. 

The brown essence quickly formed into a solid Earth shield. Running along the entire Earth shield was numerous large brown spikes, each of its tips shimmering with Earth Law essence. 

Cain calmly analyzed the change, detecting just how much power output it was generating.

'Worthy of a genius foundation. Just this amount of power can defend against any zenith Peak Sky Ruler attack. Perhaps it can even defend against some Extreme Sky Ruler attacks. Still pointless in the end.'

Cain's analysis merely took a split second to form. His mind had thoroughly evolved under the refinements of Heaven and Earth essence where feats like this were easily achievable.

Wordlessly and fearlessly, Cain flapped his Dragon Lightning Wings, bursting forth in an extreme burst of speed, turning into a blue light trail. 

Just meters away from the phantom, Cain narrowed his eyes.

In that split moment, the Earth Shield's spikes burst forward, soaring straight at Cain's body, entrapping him in a pincer move. 

At his momentum, it was nearly impossible to stop. And it was nearly impossible to revolve his energies to quickly summon forth any form of defense. 

For any rash, battle-hungry person, this could be considered a decent strategy to slow down their momentum. 

However, Cain didn't have any intentions to change his motive of action in the slightest. 

Indifferently, he swiped his sword at equal lightning speeds, unleashing numerous rays of golden Sword light in just a split moment!

To any weaker cultivators' eyes, it would look like Cain was making one single sword swipe. 

But in reality, Cain's arms were moving incomparably fast to the point where he could slash his Spiral Sword multiple in just a moment!

Evidently, Cain didn't slack off his Sword Sage Art training at all. 

The numerous rays of golden Sword light violently crashed right onto the Earth Shield's spikes, creating a sparkling collision.

But, the collision lasted only for a mere second; the rays of golden Sword lights tore right through the spikes and heavily struck the phantom's Earth Shield! 

'Bang!'

The Earth Shield shattered like fragile glass, sending the phantom flying like a broken sack as it vomited light translucent blood. 

Within only the split second the phantom flew, a bright green flash had instantly shined a few meters behind it.

The bright green flash was Cain instantly teleporting like a ghost! 

And without losing momentum, Cain surged his Minor Lightning Essence, blasting out a mighty Draconinc Lightning Claw from the tip of his Spiral Sword.

'Bang!' 

Without any suspense, the Draconcinc Lightning Claw utterly obliterated the phantom, turning it into pure origin energy. 

This whole entire exchange occurred within just two seconds.

After getting crushed by Cain's previous attack, the phantom simply didn't have any chance to react, leading to a perfect killing setup. 

Lowering his Spiral Sword, Cain inwardly nodded at this kill.

It all seemed effortless to perform, but Cain actually had to use a considerable sum of energies to perform Chaos teleportation and then unleash a strong enough attack to vaporize the phantom.

Just one slightest mistake, the phantom would've been able to leave his grasp. 

Of course, this wouldn't matter in the end. But Cain found this precise control as good practice for when he faces truly powerful opponents.

As for showcasing his Chaos teleportation, Cain didn't care. In fact, he would be glad if those that are watching either thought his speed is immense or he touched upon the mysterious Space Laws.

This way, he, Kali, and Amber would receive even more attention since his own attainments can't be ignored in any aspect.

Turning around forward, Cain was eager for the next target practice.

And at this time, on the outside world, silence had engulfed the entire chamber. 

Shock, clear shock, and awe filled the space of these high and mighty Huang Dragons.

Not only were Huang Dai, Xun, Jielong, and Rulong staring with eyes that nearly threatened to pop from their skulls, even Shi Wei unknowingly slightly gaped her mouth in genuine bewilderment. 

Nothing was said for a short moment until Huang Xun quietly muttered, "I only just seen his leg just slightly move, and yet…he instantly teleported! This has to be, no, this is Space Laws!"

Whether intentional or not, each Royal children sharply intakes a breath of cold air. If they didn't see and sense it for themselves, they would always believe this would be an utterly ridiculous concept.

But right before their very eyes, Cain, a great genius who is still only at the Minor Law Threshold stage, somehow traced the mysterious concept of Space Laws! 

"This damn kid…cultivators with Space Laws, aren't uncommon among the Divine Boundless Heaven. I know for sure that several of Heavenly Great World geniuses cultivates it. But, none of them could even toucher the Threshold Control Stage until half-step Divine Origin! The requirements for Space Laws are just far too high. So how could he…"

Huang Rulong slowly spoke out loud, his tone unable to conceal his genuine awe. 

His words fiercely shook the other Royal children, causing them to reevaluate Cain in a new light.

Before, they all felt genuine pressure from Cain's group. And now, they all felt that Cain specifically is far too unpredictable! 

Huang Jielong couldn't help but add, "I know of a legend that talks about some legendary genius grasping Space Laws in the Minor Law dimension. It was said that his foundation and accumulations alone allowed him to have an extreme cultivation speed and peak combat prowess! The time he needed to reach large success cultivation was still tens of thousands of years, but he had blazing cultivation speed compared to other geniuses! Damn it…is Cain really going to reach this point as well?"

As the Royal children were shivering in such terrifying thoughts, Shi Wei had already regained back her calm. 

Although, there was a noticeable purple light glinting her gorgeous eyes now.
