Chapter 573 Threat

In a solemn tone, Lord Chao openly asked, "Just what are you planning? Since you're not intending on fighting me, do you intend on fighting every other Divine Decree Lord who makes it to this area? Isn't that a little too overbearing?"

Curiosity plagued Lord Chao more than any other emotion. He honestly couldn't care at all about those weaker Divine Decree Lords. But the fact that Cain was holding this arrogant position, imposing and grand as emperor, looked a bit much, even for Lord Chao.

Cain didn't even glance back at Lord Chao. His smile was still casual as he said, "Does it matter if they are overbearing? Do I need to fear their retaliation? If they have the ability to resist, then they have the ability to resist. I can say nothing if such a case were to happen."

"Hmph." Lord Chao coldly snorted. He pointedly ignored Cain and focused on meditating on his own abilities.

There was nothing else he can possibly say. His own prowess is possibly inferior to Cain's. The scene from their previous battle emerges in his mind. Never before has he, a mighty Divine Ruler, a figure respected by Holy King masters and Primal Soverigen grandmasters of the like, felt so disrespected and frustrated.

That single battle lit up his Divine Will better than anything else could before.

A fiery light burned within Lord Chao's pupils. He vowed that with the star platform, their next fight will be completely different.

Still ignoring Lord Chao, Cain suddenly switched his gaze to another one of the twenty-five holes.

This time, the life aura he detected caused an eerie smile to stretch across his face. A smile that is comparable to a predator ready to prey on his food.

Moments later, another Divine Decree Lord appeared in the royal chamber.

His presence briefly exuded a molting sun heat radiance. In the outside world, his mere steps on the ground can melt the earth, striking directly to its core.

But this kind of intense sun presence was completely suppressed!

It was even to a more tragic degree than that of Lord Chao. This Divine Decree Lord could barely put up a resistance!

"Ah?! Lee?!?"

The Divine Decree Lord in question was an old enemy of Cain's. One who went off the radar for a long time for him.

Cloudsea Holy Land other Divine Decree Lord, Wen Shao.

All because of Wen Shao did Cain and Amber needed to survive several assassination attempts and schemes. Those enemies were quite vicious. One of them had even wanted to commit suicide against Cain.

Of course, none of these attempts ever got close to threatening Cain's or Amber's life. But still, to anyone who wants to take his life, Cain would never let them go!

The only reason Wen Shao was surviving throughout this time was that he didn't have a clear shot to silently kill him off as he did with Senior Master Juo.

Even now, Cain still didn't think he can kill Wen Shao without troublesome consequences.

Yet, just because he couldn't kill, didn't mean he couldn't make Wen Shao suffer.

"If it isn't Wen Shao? To think you would be one of the first ones coming here out of them all. Really, how great." As Cain spoke, he took one step forward.

This step alone gushed a whirlwind of pressure. The step of an imperial emperor crushing down on his subject.

Razor-sharp air shrouded Wen Shao. Small, blinding sparks flashed. Lights of Law runes sizzled from each flash before dispersing together.

Big chips of Wen Shao's protective Divine Aura had already cracked!

The looming sensation of death hunged over Wen Shao. Bursts of cold sweat rain down his brown. This had to be one of the most stressful situation he had ever been in!

In the face of a threat more insidious than an asura demon, Wen Shao tried to plead, "Fel-fellow Martial Brother. There's no need to go so far, right? We do come from the same sect, no?"

Cain coldly chuckled. His piercing voice sent chills down to the depths of Wen Shao's soul. "That's the best excuse you can come up with? Just scram out of here."

He didn't even use his Dragon Swift Sword or Chaotic Teleportation. A single step had several weakened space laws around Cain.

His body was an untraceable trail of light!

The rules of the starry earth realm were weaker around Cain. His speed became absolutely celestial, unable for any ordinary Middle Stage Divine Ruler to react to!

Cain flashed in front of Wen Shao, his lightning-ice-encased fist swinging out with a godly might. The shine of his fist filled the entire world!

"Ahh!! Fire Lotus!!"

Wen Shao used his only split-second to completely erupt every fiber of his power!

His body violently trembled, waves of boundless energy inching through every part of his cell. Sizzling lights of Supreme Sun Fire Divine Laws condescend out of his body.

The birth of a true sun had taken place within the royal chamber.

Wen Shao's Supreme Sun Fire Divine Law manifested into a gorgeous Dao Origin Lotus. Within the center of the Dao Origin Lotus gathered an extreme concept.

The birth of a revolving sun, containing extreme heat, ready to melt across the entire world!

The amount of genius, peak Middle Divine Ruler who can face Wen Shao can be counted on hands!

However, no matter how much power Wen Shao generated, it was all utterly useless!

The lightning-ice-encased fist was invincible, rippling an extremely powerful concept. Two mutated forces of Great Dao Laws!

Mixed together was a power impossible to resist by all those under Late Stage Divine Ruler!

'Bang!'

Violent streaks of energy shockwaves chaotically swirled all around the royal chamber. Harsh collision of Law lights burst like atomic bombs, nearly destroying small sections of space.

'Tch!'

Lord Chen and Lord Chao were forced to hurriedly retreat a greater distance, the pressure sitting uncomfortably in their chest.

At this time, Cain's lightning-ice-encased fist casually smashed down on the Sun Lotus, crushing it with a weight greater than thousands of mountains.

Numerous large cracks split across the Sun Lotus. A big chip of the Sun Lotus had even smashed off!

"Ahh!!"

Wen Shao vomited massive mouthfuls of blood. Every fiber of his being was under grueling pain.

Numerous bones throughout his body cracked, his organs ruptured, and his Spiritual Sea violently trembled.

All of this came with just one part of his Dao Origin Sun Lotus being chipped off!

There wasn't any other option for Wen Shao. Mysterious power instantly activated from his soul. Black lights spewed out, engulfing Wen Shao and his Dao Origin.

The profoundness of the black light had easily blocked off Cain's lightning-ice-encased fist and tore open the Void Space.

Only a spark of killing intent streaked in the air. Without any parting words, the black light carried Wen Shao through the Void Space, instantly teleporting him out of the Starry Earth Realm.

With the dust finally settled, Cain recalled his powers. He ignored the intent stares of Lord Chen and Lord Chao while casually assimilating into a meditative state.

The drain on his energy reserves really is starting to become far more noticeable. He may be dominating these fights, but not a single opponent was a slouch.

In fact, Wen Shao and Lord Yue had the right to rule over a lower-level domain in the God Galaxy!

They would be absolute overloads in the lower planes, such as the Divine Plane and Mortal realms.

Across the God Galaxies, even Heavenly Great World geniuses would have challenging times simply equaling to them, much less matching them.

Yet, Cain could still utterly decimate them, as if they were nothing but dead dogs.

This was something that both Lord Chen and Lord Chao couldn't possibly ignore. A threat far too big to ignore would only keep growing if nothing was done.

For the first time in a long while, Lord Chao willingly contacted Lord Chen in a sound transmission. 'You only saw him pushing out that Mid Divine Ruler. Just before this, he casually beaten Lord Yue! In fact, he had the slight possibility of outright killing her by destroying her Dao Origin.'

Lord Chen sighed in his mind. 'This guy's energy principles is just too suppressive. Neither you nor I have the ability to outright destroy Dao Origin. That's only possible if we can suppress their Supreme energy principles on a fundamental level. Is this really the standard of Divine Mortals? Just...why does he seem so grossly exaggerated?'

Not responding for a moment, Lord Chao kept a critical eye on Cain. His Divine Sense can only perceive the faintest sensation of a fog. But within this fog was a speck of absolute extreme power.

Only a fine line away from transition into a new realm of cultivation!

Lord Chao's eyes narrowed. 'I can just faintly feel it from this guy. If he were to get to the star platform, his cultivation will surely increase to the Divine Star realm! Once that happens...'

Lord Chen snorted. 'Tch. No need to tell me twice. The power he'll have will simply be incomprehensible. It may be not my way of doing it, but we'll need to team up if we want a chance of blocking this guy. Us together would be enough to distract from taking the center spot on the platform.'
