Chapter 454 Multiple Breakthroughs
Chapter 454 Multiple Breakthroughs
Numerous times did Amber experience the magical phenomenons of Cain's powerful breakthroughs. But this specific one was specifically more intense than his others.
Even hundreds of meters away, Amber was completely engulfed by Cain's overwhelming aura. The hint of panic within her eyes vanished as she assessed the situation.
Her Spirit Sense focused and caused a small rise of a surprise to surge through her mind. "Wha? Already?"
Amber calmly gazed over at Cain. Her Divine Sense could clearly detect the tremendous amount of power rippling from Cain's aura. It was distinctly unique this time as Cain wasn't utilizing extra boosts from Chaos energy or his soul.
She wasn't afraid, but her soul still alerted her that this one attack contained an immense amount of danger. Even if she were to use her full power to defend, Amber doubted she could escape with only light injuries.
A considerable amount of fascination surged through Amber. No matter what, she can always admire Cain's utter dedication to cultivation. When he puts his mind to something, he truly advanced thousand of feet per second.
His fanatic determination nearly made Amber want to practice her own cultivation. Though, the calmness of Spirit energy Laws appealed to her on a much greater scale.
In that moment, an intriguing idea coursed through Amber's mind. She assimilated into a cultivation state and intently focused.
This time, she didn't stimulate her regular Divine Sense, but rather her Spirit energy senses.
With her Spirit energy senses, it was harder to properly perceive the principles within Cain's Draconic Lightning. It felt like sticking her head into a mist that also exuded an indomitable pressure.
But at the same time, Amber's Spirit energy senses as detecting traces of principles that her Divine Sense simply can't ever perceive. These traces had a deep connection to the ever-shifting principles of Spirit Energy Laws.
The Laws of Spirit energy were deeply complex. It could be domineeringly powerful, light as a feather, heavy as a mountain, weak as an ant, completely full of life, or as mighty as a god.
This is why Spirit energy had such versatility. Its Laws didn't focus on one domain, but rather on an interconnected one that is compromised of identical and different elements.
As for Cain's upgraded Draconinc Lightning, it was a force that came from the fusion of Dragon god blood and Lightning Laws. All energy principles within it had mutated into a new force of energy that was exceedingly complex.
Amber used her Spirit energy senses to just faintly detect the deeper mixture of those energy principles. And even by just faintly detecting those principles, Amber could feel her Spiritual Sea gradually broaden.
Her palm opened as a swirl of Spirit energy began to slowly form. Compared to all other times, the red Spirit energy was slightly darker than its usual color. It was very subtle, to the point regular cultivators won't be able to understand, but other World Spirit Masters would become shocked on the spot.
The raw power of Amber's Spirit energy actively increased by the second while simultaneously gaining more profound energy principles.
With only sensing Cain's breakthrough, Amber managed to perceive her own inspiration and began reaching the next steps of Spirit energy.
She had stayed in the Early Layer of 4th Class for some time now, and now, inspired by Cain, her breakthrough to the Middle Layer was inevitable!
Amber didn't even realize that she had perfectly assimilated into a Spirit trance enlightenment. Her connection with the Spiritual Dimension turned increasingly deeper, allowing her insights into the nomological truths of Spirit energy Laws.
Seconds soon turned into a few minutes.
In only this short period of time, a dark flash covered Amber's swirl of Spirit energy. Pure power and the mysteries of Spirit energy rippled from the Spirit energy ball.
Purely by her own talent and inspiration, Amber had reached the Middle Layer of 4th Class Spirit energy!
Similar to martial cultivation, comprehension was of the utmost importance for Spirit energy. Without sufficient comprehension and mental accumulation, Amber would have never been able to grasp Middle Layer Spirit energy with her soul energy, control it and then absorb it into her Spirit Space.
At most, Amber accumulated her 4th Class Spirit energy for several months. In less than a year and she already reached the Middle Layer. Such a feat would make the genius World Spirit Master absolutely dumbfounded.
When Amber opened her eyes, her beautiful black pupils briefly flashed a luminous red light. As the light dispersed, a pleased smile graced her lips.
In that moment, Amber stood up, feeling satisfied with the new Spirit energy coursing within her. But suddenly, her Divine Sense wildly fluctuated.
Amber snapped her gaze over to where the intense overflowing aura was coming from.
Upon looking over, a sudden change, one that stunned Amber speechless, occurred within Cain.
Cain's expression was devoid of any emotion. His face was blank and his eyes appeared completely vacant even with the immense power running through him.
On pure instinct alone, Cain's body engraved the following movements into his muscles.
Taking a single step forward, Cain suddenly erupted into sound-breaking speed! His body was intensely exuding unending waves of Draconic Lightning.
And emerging from the Draconic Lightning was a stream of essence that instantly formed into a phantom of a majestic Dragon!
Everything happened within an instant.
Thunderous booms of roaring lighting, the terrifying roar of an immemorial Dragon, and the presence of overwhelming Laws, all engulfed the entire atmosphere of the courtyard!
Amber's eyes tightly closed while she subconsciously retreated dozens of meters back. The after shock waves of this attack nearly shattered her eardrums!
For sure, a weaker Divine Star warrior would've been easily swept into the chaotic air pressure exuding from Cain's new attack.
This Martial Skill could be considered one of, if not, Cain's most overwhelming attack.
However, only a moment later, the horrifying presence controlling the atmosphere instantly vanished.
Amber slowly open her eyes and witnessed astounding scenery.
The courtyard now has a massive, 500 meters long fissure splitting straight through the middle!
Black lights of torn open space could be seen for a second before they dispersed into the wind.
Thankfully, their courtyard is a couple of miles long to accommodate them. But still, to cause this kind of destruction, even with the reinforced environment of the God Galaxy, was a chilling feat.
This wasn't even counting the fact that Cain wasn't even at his full power!
Feeling curious, Amber flew over to Cain, who was now standing calmly without any lightning aura.
He silently stared at his palms, clenching them as if he was in a trance.
Suddenly, Cain snapped out of his trance as he detected a change within Amber. Praise flashed on his face as he happily said, "You already reached the middle layer? Did you really break through just from studying me?"
Normally, Amber rarely felt smug or overly prideful in front of others. But just with Cain, more of her emotions began to surface.
She spoke with great pride when saying, "When I want to be, I can be my own kind of freakish genius. Of course, you played a bit part in this breakthrough."
At this point, Amber recalled just how overwhelming Cain's breakthrough was and simply had to shake her head.
She curiously asked, "But my was only a mere minor breakthrough. You? That attack could blind Divine Origins just from the aftershocks. Just what was that?"
A smile of great satisfaction graced Cain's lips. "That was the second Martial Skill of my arts. Draconic Flash. With this, my speed reaches the very limit, and my striking power condensed into a powerful singular point. Furthermore, whoever I lock onto with this attack would experience the Laws of Space locking around them. Quite the powerful skill, I must say."
In his arsenal of Martial Skills, Cain always felt that while he may not have the quantity, he certainly makes up for it in quality. Every Martial Skill he had learned all plays a huge part in his striking power.
But the Draconic Flash skill is the only Martial Skill that has qualities of extreme speed, Law affecting abilities, and precise piercing power. All of his other skills either have one or two of these aspects, while Draconinc Flash combined them all into one powerful attack.
Above all, the Draconic Flash only took a little more drain on his energy reserves.
Sensing himself, Cain detected the Draconic Flash only took around 10% of his overall energy reserves.
For an attack so powerful like this, Cain could safely say it was well worth the cost.
Turning back over to Amber, Cain suddenly asked her, "What about you? Did you advance with the Spirit Web Arts before or after reaching the middle layer?"
"Ah. That I did. It was actually before my middle layer breakthrough. At this art second layer, I can create hundreds of Spirit Web and each of them is far more potent when slowing down the area around a person and the person themselves. These webs can overlap and create a very potent domain that can entrap multiple people. Really, even for people far above my cultivation, one wave of Spirit Webs could incapacitate them within a few seconds." Amber proudly smiled.
Out of her Shadow Laws and Spirit energy Laws, the latter far more suited her combat style. If she can instantly defeat her foe by exerting too much strength is like a godsend for her.
Although, the absorption ability of her Shadow Law essence wasn't forgotten about. Amber just needed to find the appropriate cultivation art to really expand her Shadow Laws to new limits.
Moreover, comprehending more of her bloodline will help with her Shadow Laws, as her blood essence has an innate affinity with it.
For now, Amber was ultimately content with just the Spirit Web art.
As they both have reached a new layer in their prowess, Amber had another idea on how they should spend their remaining time.
She actually couldn't believe she was the one bringing this up, but it was absolutely necessary to consider.
