The Chaos Dragon Prince

The duo didn't fly into the skies but rather stayed close to the ground as they sped off. Because of the map, they followed a specific trail that had limited Vicious Dao beasts and other Martial cultivators.

Their destination was close to one of the top cities of the entire Wintry World, Sky Bless City.

That city not only holds the strongest first-rate sect and other Holy Land but also powerful Martial Families that nobody would dare to underestimate.

With how fierce the God Galaxy competition is, the young couple hopes their luck would be good enough to find and trail behind a treasure-hunting group.

Doing things by the book or having a morally upright stance has never been either Cain or Amber's Martial way. In many aspects they were different, but in other aspects, they were exactly similar.

Case in point, their Martial nature to be indifferent to other strangers' lives in general.

If it can benefit themselves and each other, the young couple had zero qualms about overtaking things for themselves.

Using words was practically a hollow method within the God Galaxies. Only through the right amount of force can one step over the crowd and achieve their dreams.

With a safe route planned out, the young couple could certainly avoid a massive amount of troublesome situations. But it still didn't mean they could travel over tens of thousands of miles.

The young couple had to make numerous stops to restore their energy reserves.

Thankfully, with each of their pit stop, no Vicious Dao beast or rouge Martial cultivator intruded upon them.

Even though their situation was tense, Cain and Amber unintentionally fall into a serene system. They would push to their limits of speed when moving about. And when resting, they would confine into each other's bodily warmth that was amplified because of the Dragon link within their soul cores.

It was a strangely peaceful time for them both.

But soon enough, two weeks passed and the young couple arrived close to Sky Bless City.

They didn't go directly close to it and stayed around hundreds of miles from the city.

Because their looks didn't draw any suspicions, the young couple could sneakily obverse the types of groups walking the path either to Sky Bless City, out of Sky Bless City, or towards a nearby village.

For the first few days, neither Cain nor Amber spotted a group worthy of their interest. They mainly detected Martial cultivators with either bottom-tier, shaky foundations or simply average foundations.

There was a large forest area beside the main roads which allowed the duo to safely hid with Chaotic Concealment completely masking their auras.

On one day of their stakeout, the duo finally found worthy enough targets.

The clothes they wore were all top-grade craft forged from powerful World Spirit Masters. Even though it was just simple robes, Amber could detect that the Spirit energy coursing within them gave more defenses than any other type of armor.

This group also had powerful cultivation foundations. Each of them wasn't average or cookie-cutter. They all were true experts of both the older and younger generation.

Four older men surrounded a handsome youth, forming a tight protection.

When trying to detect the cultivation of the four older men, Cain and Amber were helpless. Their Spiritual Sea couldn't perceive anything, almost like trying to look through a fog. The best they could detect were their overwhelming natural auras.

As for the young man, he was a 5thfall, Divine Origin expert. A genius that is most likely on equal terms with those from the Sacred Martial Palace.

At least, that what's Cain and Amber could gather from his natural aura.

The fact alone that they couldn't sense the four men's cultivation was enough to get the young couple going. They assumed they all at least had to be Divine Star experts!

Such a sighting wasn't common at all. Even in this High Realm, the average amount of cultivators typically ranged from 3rdfall Divine Origin to the Great Divine Sea realm.

And even then, the stronger Great Divine Sea experts near the late of the realm typically travel in small or large groups.

Whoever these men are evidently had a glorious status and background.

With their minds made up, the duo followed close by the high-class group. As if lady luck was on their side, the group had veered off the main paths and walked side by side to the forest area Cain and Amber hid in.

With the forest as an excellent cover-up and Chaotic Concealment masking all of their presence, the duo stretched their soul senses to catch what the group was discussing.

"Young master Lin, do you believe it is wise to trust your elder siblings? The temptation of Dao Cores is indeed great, but it may also be a downfall."

The young man, Tian Lin, only had a nonchalant expression as he shrugged. "We from the Tian family are ruthless but not as ruthless as those dogs from the Zhao family. My elder sister sees potential within me, thus, she wants me to reach the Great Divine Sea realm as soon as possible. We together would be able to enter the sights of our eldest brother. Once then, we'll be one step closer to currying favor with a Divine Decree lord."

Cain and Amber felt their curiosity spike up. 'Divine Decree Lord...could that be...?' They both started to recall Shi Wei's lesson.

And at the same time, one of the older men said, "Mn. It still impresses me every day that the third young master was the one to gain the attention of Lord Shao. That Lord is one of, if not the most promising talent of the Cloudsea Holy Land in the last thousands of years. His backing is absolutely phenomenal. Truly, joining his faction will only bring far brighter future days."

It was at this moment did Cain and Amber's eyes brighten. They finally recalled just what was so special about a Divine Decree Lord.

'Those guys really are talking about the Divine Decree rankings. If I'm not wrong, those people who can make the list all have invincible prowess within the same minor boundary, have high Martial comprehension, and have high cultivation speed,' Amber transmitted to Cain.

Cain replied, 'Indeed they are. Grandmother claims they're the most talented in the entire Heaven, just under the Divine Mortals. And even then, grandmother also claims the top-tier Divine Decree Lords can somewhat match a Divine Mortal prowess.'

Divine Mortals have a deep-rooted history and are factually known to be the leaders of any generation.

But they are all incredibly rare. It wasn't feasible to create something like a Divine Mortal list because of the scarcity of them.

Thus, the second-best option was to create a ranking of all cultivators who can't fight above two major realms but still have immense prowess, comprehension, and talent compared to everyone else in the Divine Boundless Heaven.

Truthfully, neither Cain nor Amber really placed that ranking list in their eyes. From a mix of pure confidence and some arrogance, they genuinely believed themselves to be above those Divine Decree Lords.

Amber's passion had always lied with Spirit energy. And the feats of Spirit energy are definitely no less than either Qi or Law power. Moreover, at times, Spirit energy is greater than other sources of power.

With her immense Spiritual talent, the Divine Decree truly couldn't raise her curiosity before.

Cain's thought patterns were even more arrogant. As a Divine Mortal, he firmly believed that one day, he'll long surpass every single person on the Divine Decree ranking.

After all, none of them are Divine Mortals. No matter how talented they are, once Cain reached the same realm as them, it will be his complete victory.

These smug thoughts couldn't appear for either Cain or Amber as of now.

When ignoring their own prowess, it is known that all Divine Decree Lords have some sort of special background. Even the Lords who initially came from a poor background would have their status inevitable change.

There wouldn't be a single Holy Land that would feasibly reject a Divine Decree Lord. They would want to form direct, deep connections, thus providing these powerful Lords with amazing backgrounds.

Backgrounds were exactly something that both Cain and Amber need at this moment.

With a powerful background, their cultivation will soar beyond belief. Perhaps, if they join a force greater than their Huang Dragon Imperial Palace, their cultivation will become greater than it was at home.

But this was all something that the young couple took note of for the future.

To be able to gain backgrounds, they would need to improve upon their own prowess first. Otherwise, forget putting their names on the Divine Decree rankings. Not even a second-rate Sect would want to foster them.

This thought was the blunt reality of their world. But it only made Cain and Amber more determined to break past this situation.

After only a brief moment of thought, the young couple shook their heads and focused back up on the Tian group conversation.

Tian Lin was saying, "Hopefully, those Zhao family rats fail in impressing their Divine Decree Lord subordinate."

He then paused for a moment before asking, "By the way, has there been any news about the Soul relic? Surely, it wasn't taken by a group, right? I need the soul relic more than this resource cave."

The leader of the four older men had a somber expression as he sighed out, "Unfortunately, still nothing, young master. None of our own reported anything. And there haven't been any sightings of other groups with the soul relic."

Tian Lie's reaction to this was a mix. He muttered out loud, "That leaves me feeling both relief and worried. If anything, I wouldn't want the soul relic to fall into anyone else hands besides our own. But at the same time, I wish to find the soul relic all for myself."

Tian Lie suddenly perked up, his face flashing a determined expression. "Alright, let's hurry and finish this up. Afterward, we'll promptly set out for the soul relic. If I can just use this, my own cultivation will increase by leaps and bounds. Reaching the Divine Star realm would be shortened down by hundreds of years and I can perhaps become a Divine Decree Lord all on my own. Like I said, let's hurry this up."
