Chapter 699 Dangerous Layers
A fiery competitive spirit burned through the duo. It reminded them of the old days. Comparing their talents in the martial arts to see who's the superior sibling.
Cain didn't stall any longer. Chaos energy rippled from his body. His Chaos law principles have the ability to phase through all suppression because of the unfathomable power of the Chaotic Emerald.
An invisible step forward instantly teleported Cain over hundreds of meters.
Deep into it, the suppression force had amplified. There were much more Dao principles than divine law principles.
But, of course, this couldn't stall Cain at all. His body vanished. Continually teleporting throughout the garden world at a breakneck speed.
It was at this time that a terrifyingly sharp icy sword light illumined the garden world.
An unfathomable force of law principles gushed from every strand of the icy sword light.
There wasn't an overwhelming amount of power rippling out. However, the speed of the icy sword light was amazingly swift, far superior to most late layer Holy Kings!
Kali's grandmaster attainment levels already made it an utter ease to faintly grasp the Dao principles swirling the atmosphere.
And her supreme combat prowess could directly slice through law suppression at lightning-like speeds.
She was slower than Cain. But, in just mere seconds, she was far out of the girls' sight.
The duo's extreme talents didn't disturb the girls. They already knew what to expect from Cain and someone directly related to him.
Focusing on themselves, Yulong's eyes were the first to flash open. Her pupils gleamed with dark divine lights, an unfathomable understanding emerging within her mind.
"Alright! I get it! Now it's-oh?" She suddenly paused. Her attention snapped around to see numerous divine lights glistening within the area.
Every one of these divine lights radiated powerful law principles. The density of their laws surpassed most of the younger generations.
Several divine lights in particular stood above the already great talents. And one of the dark divine lights streamed right toward Yulong.
It instantly manifested into the form of Death Long. His lips curled into a warm smile as he nodded at Yulong. "Junior martial sister. It really is good to finally find you! Your disappearance caused all of us great unease."
He seemed genuine in his relief. An extreme genius like Yulong really shouldn't be so long on her own. At least, that what's Death Long and many others in their Great World believed.
In comparison to Death Long's joy, Yulong was completely indifferent. A negative impression already formed in her mind after Death Long attempted to pressure Cain.
She barely smiled while saying, "Well met. Maybe we could stay for a chat. But there is a competition going on. So, see you later."
She didn't give Death Long a chance to react. Black divine lights converged around her body. A rumbling dragon phantom faintly bloomed from her back.
She soared forth in a surprisingly great burst of speed, far faster than what peak Divine Rulers can exude!
Death Long was left a bit speechless over getting so directly blown off. His eyes narrowed, and he soon heard a mocking voice boom into his ears.
"Hahaha!! Would you look at that?" Lord Hai was the one giving a burst of mocking laughter. She cared little for Death Long's terrifying glare, continuing to say, "Seems like your little prime junior far prefers being with that man. Well, can't say I blame her. I'm more interested in fighting that man than you. See you around."
With that, Lord Hai burst forth in a beam of electrifying crimson light.
"Hmph!" Death Long coldly snorted. Without another word, he too soared forward while surging his Darkness Divine Laws.
The other geniuses didn't dare comment on the interaction out loud. While the other great world geniuses were blasting ahead.
And it was at this time that Amber and the other girls slowly open their eyes.
Amber's smile was calm and confident. "I suppose its time to pick up the pace."
...
The 1st layer of the garden world was a real challenge to nearly all geniuses. They, including the great world geniuses, needed to pour their complete focus and highest divine arts to counter the suppression force.
Naturally, Cain reigns supreme in this department. Continuous Chaotic Teleportation swiftly brought him through the 1st layer.
It wasn't before long that Cain had reached the last borders of the 1st layer. He briefly stopped, surveying a faint, translucent barrier separating him from the next layer.
Cain's Chaos Soul Sense did a quick scan over the translucent barrier. The results were immediate. He detected that there were two ways to get through this barrier.
By either grasping a fundamental understanding of a small portion of its Dao principles and then manipulating its essence to open a path.
Or tearing through the law suppression and barrier with one's own cultivation art and understanding.
Both ways are tremendously difficult with no easy solution.
Cain felt a bit curious about how Kali would progress. But it was evident to him that her divine mortal prowess would allow her easy entrance.
There was only one correct way for Cain to go. His invisible step forward directly teleported him right through the void space. Instantly appearing on the other side of the barrier, directly entering the 2nd layer!
Upon entrance, Cain tightened his brows, promptly feeling an intense suction force claw at his body.
Power from his Inner World and Chaos energy suppressed the suction fore. But, trickles of the sensation still tingled his body.
Cain was very intrigued. To even leave a lingering sensation after the power of Chaos energy was no joke. Other extreme geniuses would be helplessly sucked along unless they stimulated a massive amount of power!
Cain calmly surveyed the situation. His vision was greeted by the same garden world, but now filled with numerous terrifying black holes!
These black holes gleamed with several Dao runes. Rippling sensation of various powers was mixed within.
Cain's Chaos Soul Sense could just barely identify that these mixed Dao laws had seemingly mutated. It was a forceful fusion. Not a natural one like his lightning and ice laws.
But even so, the forceful fusion spurred an intense suction force of Dao laws.
Mortals would be instantly vaporized to ashes. Their bodies would quite literally crumble beneath the mutated force of laws.
Only divine cultivators can barely resist. All because their entire being is infused with the supreme power of true divine laws.
Cain didn't get arrogant. His Chaos Soul Sense pointed him in the right direction, but he wasn't quick to make a large jump.
Testing the waters, he began to cautiously fly through without using Chaotic Teleportation.
The effects were immediate. Cain curled his brows from a great sense of suction straining on his body. Simply taking a few meters into this layer would stir the black holes of Dao law principles.
These black holes of laws not only had a deadly effect on mortals but also intense on cultivators with divine laws.
It would be as if all cultivators coming through here were a magnetic force. An irresistible attraction that the black hole laws would inevitably suck up.
Cain didn't want to know what could happen if sucked into any one of these black holes. It wouldn't be like the martial competitions he read about in his previous life. There was no projection or fail safe here.
If he were to get injured or possibly die, that would be it. This was a test meant to exert the younger generation to their very limits!
Of course, not only Cain, but many others were given life protection items from their masters. These weren't prohibited when considering the deadly challenges the younger generation needed to face.
The effect it was having on Cain was enough to tell him how terrifying this layer was.
