A clear, refreshing aura washed over Cain's entire being. From it, his consciousness promptly broke from being entranced.
Cain rapidly blinked his eyes, dazedly asking, "Dao Crystal? Is this-is this something from the Heavenly Dao itself?"
Even at Cain's cultivation level, it is well known throughout the God Galaxies that all legendary Heavenly Venerate masters stand at an equal height with the Heavenly Dao.
It wasn't an exaggeration at all to say that their Laws and profound Dao can directly bend portions of the universe to their Wills!
Just a trace of this terrifying strength nearly made Cain lose his mind. Internally, he honestly felt a rise of cold sweat.
A very rare feeling he barely experienced before began to slowly emerge.
At that moment, Nightmare Lord explained, "No, no. This Dao Crystal is the farthest from competing with the Heavenly Dao. However, the rainbow color lights you see are indeed traces of my previous cultivation of Dao Marks. This is one of the main reasons why my realm can thrive for so long. Why that even Holy King experts aren't able to set a single foot here without my permission."
"I see…" Cain stared at the Dao Crystal with a new light.
Right before him is the Law comprehension of a great Heavenly Venerate master!
If he could perceive just a sliver of his comprehensions, the benefits would be unimaginable.
But Cain felt far more hesitation than daring over this. The previous entranced sensation left a deep impression on him.
He chose to wait for the next instructions.
Nightmare Lord said, "Now here is the crucial step. You see, because I lack a body, a Spiritual Sea, and many other vital variables, I am unable to fully control the Nightmare. That includes the formation in the Dao Crystal. The most I can do is grow my Soul so I can at least use a greater portion of my own Heavenly energy and bring out the Dao Crystal Staff."
A momentary look of surprise crossed Cain's face. He didn't expect a peak being to actually encounter troubles that are unresolvable.
Noticing that look, Nightmare continued to explain, "If you want to continue your Martial Path, you must also realize that Heavenly Venerate is not invincible. The only qualified to say so are those beyond this realm. But that's not anything you should concern yourself with. Just know, unless you specifically cultivate the Soul, it will be a major weakness to nearly all across the Divine Boundless Heaven. The only advantages in the Soul are the high vitality, and remnants Law or Dao marks fused within it, providing it with a small portion of strength."
After a brief moment of pause, Nightmare Lord finally introduced his plan. "Now, boy, I need you to use all of the energies coursing your entire beings and pour it into the Dao Crystal Staff. I will control the Heavenly energy to remove your suppression. After this, the Dao Formation will activate."
An ominous chill swept through Cain. He warily asked, already feeling doubtful, "And just will this Formation do?"
"Simple. The miasma mist can act on a completely larger scale and suck everyone on the Mountain range. And it will spread into the Nightmare Realm, sucking up everyone here. From this, our spoils will be plenty and my whole status can begin to change!"
Cain's pupils shrunk to needle size. His mind filtered out the rest, only focusing on the fact that both Kali and Amber are still in the Nightmare Realm!
This formation will undoubtedly kill them!!
As he merely thought of the idea, a sense of disgust birthed in Cain's Martial Heart.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHowever, despite his chaotic emotions, Cain didn't instantly lash out. His thoughts moved a lightning speed, thinking, 'This Nightmare Lord should realize I have close relations to the girls. Or, is it...no, it is the fact he simply doesn't care. Whatever the specific reason is, it is almost certain he needs someone like me. But since someone like me hasn't appeared in tens of thousands of years, I'm sure I'm too much of an oddity. It's a bit of a gamble but…'
Slight confusion swirled in Cain's mind. His consciousness was briefly confuddled over ways to save the girls.
But it didn't last long at all.
In the end, the girls will always be superior in his heart.
And against an unfathomably powerful enemy like the Nightmare Lord, Cain relied on his instincts. He needed to act now and become brazen!
A moment later, an eerie resolute light flashed within Cain's eyes.
He spoke in a plain tone, pushing away all of his hidden doubts. "Senior Nightmare Lord, I will help you, of course. But, I will not be able to action unless the two girls I showed you before are with me and safe. I can tell, without me, the arrangements have very little possibility of proceeding. I am the only one who can make use of my Soul and tremendously amplify my energy. Without me, the Dao Crystal Staff simply can't do anything. Plus…"
An unwavering amount of confidence gradually infused into Cain's voice. "Even if you don't need me and can instantly kill me, I will self detonate my Soul! No matter what, it would be disadvantageous to both of us if that were to occur."
Soon enough, Cain finished talking.
A slow, stifling silence engulfed the area.
Not even a peep was heard from the Nightmare Lord.
But Cain could practically feel a chilling sensation of death! The hairs on his body went stiff, a freezing chill gradually corroded his blood, his Martial Heart was shaking to uncontrollable degrees.
Whether what he was feeling was fake or real, Cain couldn't even tell.
The mental pressure was immense!
One wrong move could mean the end for all of them. And the thought of Kali or Amber dying greatly stirred his Soul more than his own life-ending.
Of course, Cain held an incredible will to live. He wouldn't ever needlessly sacrifice himself for anyone, friends, close friends, or his Dragon Imperial Family.
But those girls drilled too deep into his heart, causing his whole mindset to change.
Thus, Cain took a great risk.
His hope wasn't insanely high to begin with. He was merely acting confident since it was his only advantage against a legendary Heavenly Venerate warrior.
But as the silent seconds slipped by, the unease his Cain's mind could move even oceans.
Before Cain could think further, Nightmare Lord's voice plainly spoke to him.
"Quite daring and in-depth analyzer. Your foundations aren't too shabby. So I will admit, I am indeed in need of your assistance. Ruining the relationship gives both of us zero benefits. So, here you ago."
Hearing this, a great sense of relief flooded through Cain. His daring gambit paid off!
Thankfully, it seems like the Nightmare Lord is quite the character, uncaring to give into a weak junior demand.
Still, Cain kept his expression calm.
Moments later, Heavenly energy rapidly swirled around the area.
The Heavenly energy formed into two black portals, both exuding powerful Space Dao mark essence.
At the same time, two beautiful young maidens suddenly shot from the portals. Their delicate bodies crashed to the ground, their expressions twisting in confusion.
"Eh…eh?" Kali and Amber dazedly looked around for a moment until noticing each other.
The next moment, the girls snapped their gazes over to Cain, causing even more confusion to warp their minds.
"Cain?" The girls simultaneously spoke. Just moments before, both were prepared to take on another round.
But Cain simply raised his hand up, saying, "Just wait a moment."
His tone was incomparably serious, nearly exuding a commanding sensation.
Kali and Amber followed their instincts, staying quiet while tossing curious gazes over at the Dao Crystal Staff in Cain's hands.
Cain didn't hesitate anymore. He stimulated his Soul energy, pouring streams of it into the Dao Crystal.
Soul energy linked through the staff part, rapidly shooting up to the Dao Crystal.
And the very instant a mere trace of Cain's Soul energy touched the Dao Crystal, an intense suction force gripped Cain's entire being!
'Hm?!' Cain's brows fiercely shot up. He could barely control his Soul energy!
Without his input, massive streams of Soul energy poured out his Soul's Core, continually draining his Soul reserves capacity at a monstrous rate.
It wouldn't take long before he was completely dried up. And if that were to occur, Cain would be at his absolute weakest.
And against an enemy like the Heavenly Venerate Nightmare Lord, it would be a horrible situation.
Cain wracked his mind on how to escape this predicament. However, nothing good came into mind.
But it was at this moment that a faint flickering green light gushed from Cain's Soul Core.
The faint green light fused with one of the streams of Soul energy and then rapidly absorbed into the Dao Crystal.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmA bright rainbow flash briefly engulfed the room.
The Dao Crystal Staff began to vibrate, waves of black essence flowing out of it.
Cain gritted his teeth, focusing on controlling his Soul energy. Because of that Chaos energy, it rapidly speeds up the formation to unbelievable degrees.
Inspecting himself, a cold chill swept through Cain.
His Soul reverse capacity was already at 30%!
Only mere seconds passed, and he was already drained like a sponge?!
"Eh-Ah?!"
Cain was soon broken out of his thoughts by Kali and Amber. He squinted his eyes at a new sudden change.
The Dao Crystal Staff was suddenly engulfed by deep black essence. This was not ordinary essence but rather a mass accumulation of Space Dao Marks spewing Space essence!
Cain, Kali, and Amber starred at the Dao Crystal unblinking.
Suddenly, the Dao Crystal Staff slightly trembled, two streams of Space essence discharged out of the Dao Crystal.
The Space Essence quickly formed, gathering a massive amount of Space Dao Marks, transforming into dark portals.
In one of the portals were the numerous challenges of the Nightmare Realm. While the other led to the outside world.
"This is?"
At this point, both Kali and Amber stood right up. Their gazes linger on the portal for a moment before snapping over to Cain.
Worry and shock alight their eyes. They couldn't remove their gazes from his eyes.
A pure, beautiful green light engulfed both of Cain's pupils. He stood rigidly tall, unmoving, just like a statue.
At the same time, a mystical aura continually exuded out of him. It infused into space itself, bringing about a qualitative change.
Specks of backlights continually appeared around the white space. And black Heavenly energy spewed from these black lights, converging into a stream similar to a dark waterfall.
Kali and Amber weren't able to pay attention to the surroundings, however.
Not when their Spirit Sense was enraptured by Cain's mystical aura. They couldn't properly react, only feeling an instinct that drew them to get closer to Cain.
Or, more specifically, get closer to the Dao Crystal!
But before they even took one step forward, a small portion of Heavenly energy suddenly rushed into one of the portals.
It shot through the portal connecting to the rest of the Nightmare Realm!
