Chapter 662 A New Venture
Chapter 662 A New Venture
"Ah!" Zexi jolted up and forcefully shook her head. It was still a bit shocking to her to see so many cultivators willingly obey without another word.
But then again, it only makes sense for Cain to have this kind of prestige.
Focusing herself, Zexi quickly explained, "Truthfully, I'm not all that sure of these crystals origin either. All that I know is that these crystals' source energy can directly enhance special physiques and special race physical bodies. This also extends to very special bloodline users. Apparently, there's a rumor of more divine purple crystal mountains. But I have the faintest of clue where they could possibly be located."
"Mn. In any case, let's hurry this up." Cain waved his hand as he spoke.
A suction force rippled into the atmosphere. Without any reason to worry, Cain continually sucked in purple crystals, storing them right into his spatial rings.
He wasn't too greedy, however.
Zexi was similarly able to suck a good chuck of the divine purple crystals.
Within a few minutes, the duo had already sucked in all of the divine purple crystals. The cave finally lost its once luminous purple shine.
Crystals in hand, Cain asked, "And? What's next?"
A more serious expression crossed over Zexi's face at this point. "We'll need to save someone. A person decently important in my sect. It'll be much easier to see than to explain. Follow me."
With divine steps forward, Zexi leads Cain through the skies.
The chaotic situation was still developing underneath the duo. But nothing could disturb their moods.
It only took a couple of minutes to reach a seemingly unimpressive, small house. There barely were any law runes covering this place. One wouldn't expect anything important to be held here.
But Cain simply followed behind Zexi.
The duo stepped inside, both of them instantly feeling the sensation of space violently twisting and pulling around them.
Cain was a bit impressed. Only when he used his Chaos Soul Sense could he detect the transmission array hidden deep within the entrance of the house.
When Cain blinked his eyes open, he was greeted by an eerie sight.
? A young man stayed completely chained up in the middle of some kind of ritual formation. The chains were embedded deep within his body. And yet, strangely enough, blood wasn't flowing out.
Cain had detected strange formations of divine laws permeating the formation and in that young man's body.
It all was in a dormant state. A state where the young man was practically kept on life support. With just a simple flick from whoever controlled this formation, something harrowing would instantly occur.
There really wasn't any expression on the young man's face. Not as if he suddenly went dead, giving up hope in life. But more so focusing to keep his sanity intact.
Zexi quietly sighed at this scene. "This Lao Heng. One of the uncommon talents with Divine Lightning Roc bloodline within our sect. The Astral Demons were using his Divine Blood for experimentation and other such cruel methods to enhance their own cultivation. I have no idea what their final plan was. But now..."
Cain didn't need any more prompting. A wave of his hand gushed out Chaos Chains that pierced through the space.
All Divine Laws were suppressed. The ritual formation and the formation chains violently pulsated instantly.
These both held the power of Holy Qi energy and the power of Supreme Divine Laws of several Holy King masters. But these were mere pebbles against the storm of Chaos energy.
The Chaos Chains vaporized the ritual formation and formation chains into complete nothingness.
"What?!" Lao Heng's eyes sprung open.
Without warning, he slumped to the ground, his mind not being able to understand just what the hell was going on.
It was finally at this time did his Divine Sense detected two presences.
One familiar. And the other terrifyingly mysterious. As if there was just a fog of incomprehensible laws within the room.
Lao Heng wasn't able to question anything as he heard Zexi's cheerful voice cut into the atmosphere.
"See what I tell you? It would all over be over soon! Those Astral Demons finally got what coming to them."
"Re-really?!" Lao Heng snapped his gaze up. He didn't stare at Zexi, but at Cain.
No Divine Aura was rippling out of him. His divine light was extremely faint. And yet, Lao Heng nearly forgot to breathe.
This mere presence exuded a suffocating sensation. As if the tiniest of divine laws from Cain could crush his soul into tiny pieces!
Lao Heng was quick to realize a true threat and how could Zexi even reach him in the first place. His voice held a slight quiver while saying, "You-you really gotten a genius to help us! This...I can't tell whose luck is good in this situation."
"All that matter now is that we're free!" Zexi eagerly nodded. With great respect, she pointed to Cain, "You can refer to him as brother Cain. He had already killed the Holy King masters here, so let's hurry and get back to our base."
"Those masters are dead?!"
Lao Heng expected some sort of news about the Holy King masters. The Holy King masters would've been alerted to anyone trying to enter this chamber.
But even so, hearing that four Holy King masters, experts who stand above countless low divine planets, were now dead struck his mind like violent lightning.
"I know. That was my same reaction. Come on. I'll get you caught up to speed while we get back to base. I have no desire to be here any longer than needed." Zexi's tone held evident disdain. Really, staying in this chaotic slave camp was making her skin crawl.
Lao Heng still had many more questions. But he forced them down for later.
It took several minutes for Zexi to heal Lao Heng back up to the point of being able to fly. She still held an abundance of healing items.
Plus, Lao Heng needed to be kept in a stable condition because of his bloodline. Thus, he wasn't too injured compared to the slaves.
Once everything was finally done with, the trio took the skies. None of them glanced back even once. They all wanted to put this horrid experience out of their minds forever.
...
There wasn't any stopping Cain, Zexi, or Lao Heng.
Zexi and Lao Heng took the lead as they guided Cain through this new world.
Now that there wasn't any pressing issue bearing down on Cain's neck, he could finally start collecting some information. He asked first, "Now then, before discussing anything else, can either one of you tell me just what realm and planet is this? Let's just say it was a mistake for me to come so far out here."
"A mistake?" Zexi and Lao Heng glanced at each other. Things were actually starting to make a bit of sense from that.
Zexi's smile was ever-present charming as she said, "It really does explain why someone like you can be so unknown if you're not from around here. Practically, all geniuses are well known. You see brother Cain, this realm is the Central Starfield. And we're on the Starfall Planet."
'I've really come here like that?' Cain slightly curled his brows.
It's not as if he didn't want to come to the Central Starfield. But he would much rather prefer it on his terms and with much more protection on his back than having to rely on simple Holy King master prowess.
After all, the Central Starfield is just under the Quasi and full Heavenly Great Worlds. Any mistake here can really cost him his life.
