The Chaos Dragon Prince

Under the eerie silence of the dead cold night within the Misty Wilderness Tribal Domain, two youthful figures were sneakily dashing between trees.

This pair of youths movements was utterly flawless. It was like they were fish in water, smoothly maneuvering in between trees without any lack of direction.

Within the very southern part of the Tribal Domain, this could still be considered a risky action since one could potentially be caught by the Liang Tribe.

However, for Cain and Kali, they, of course, weren't worried at all about getting spotted.

Then, once they were far enough, Cain suddenly got slightly ahead of Kali and raised his hand, signaling her to stop.

"Oh? We're already here?"

Kali couldn't suppress her excitement from leaking out. When stopping on a dime, her grin curved up like a gleeful kid in a candy store.

From this seemingly beautiful and innocent-looking smile, no one could ever guess she has merciless thoughts continually swirling within her mind.

This kind of look on her made a natural smile form on Cain's lips.

If anything, one certainly couldn't deny Kali's influential excitement over heading straight into actions. Some might call her thoughts and reaction frightening.

And even Cain could admit Kali certainly isn't typical for even cultivator standards.

But despite that, he just couldn't help but find his little sister as sweetly cute.

Perhaps if he was all alone, Cain felt as if his mind would heavily damper, changing into a more reclusive personality type.

However, with Kali by his side, this dog-eat-dog world didn't seem entirely bleak.

And the more time he spends by Kali's side, the more Cain feels increasingly nostalgic.

Internally sighing to himself, Cain shook past these thoughts. He then focused on the present, and before he answered Kali, he began recalling their current plan.

'Ok, we're very close by. With our current prowess and the Emerald, even if we can't kill anyone, we can still cause hell before leaving.'

There was only complete confidence within Cain. Not even an ounce of doubt was in his mind.

Since the time they saved the Kong Clan's son, two days have passed.

Initially, Kali wanted to brazen all the way down to the Liang Tribe for that Spirit Key. She believed they could actually handle anything by just being first-level Nascent Formations Masters.

And while Cain could see why she was so antsy and pumped up, he also knew preemptively charging it would be wrong even for them.

Cain found that Lian was genuinely right. No matter their current skills and prowess, it wouldn't be enough to so easily deal with an entire Tribe.

Hearing this, Kali was a little bit dissatisfied, tempted at the idea of overcoming a seemingly impossible challenge.

But at the same time, she understood the other side of the argument. As prideful she is, she wasn't some stubborn fool.

So with her agreement, Cain and Kali then used a few days to reach the third level of the Nascent Formation realm.

For others, two small level breakthrough takes concentration and months of cultivation. But, for Cain and Kali, merely a few days were needed.

Their Martial talent truly was putting other geniuses to shame without them even knowing about it.

Although, during cultivation, Cain did pick up on a slight change.

While in the Spirit Opening realm, he needed at most hours to break past the next level. His comprehension and rate of absorption aided by the Dragon Charm was all perfect, allowing his cultivation speed to be hundreds of times faster.

However, for Nascent Qi, this speed was significantly cut down.

In terms of comprehension, Cain didn't experience any slow-down trouble. But for his Qi Seed, it was like this thing was a glutton for Nascent Qi energy!

Truly, Cain wasn't sure of the capacity he needed to achieve stronger levels of Nascent Qi. It felt like he was swallowing an entire ocean before making it past one level.

And Cain could mostly definitely fathom for other geniuses; they wouldn't need nearly as much Qi energy as him.

This immediately got Cain worrying.

Since the energy he needed is already dramatically rising to where even his Dragon Charm can't shorten the time, just how much would he need in future realms?

At that point, Cain could see that he'll need far more resources than what they brought from their imperial palace.

Even though Cain knows he can't expect everything to be smooth sailing, he still couldn't help but feel worried about being stuck over a proper lack of Qi energy.

Still, Cain had to sort this worry to the back of his mind for now.

The only solace in this situation is the fact that his Qi energy is incredibly dense. So dense to the point it can easily overpower those at the same level.

As for Kali, she didn't have an overabundant energy requirement. Her cultivation was simply slower than Cain's despite numerous advantages. And in the Nascent Formation, it naturally slowed down again.

While their cultivation speed may decrease, Cain and Kali were still satisfied with their current results.

Once they finally reached the third level, the sibling duo found it was the perfect time to challenge themselves.

And as of now, they were close to the Liang Tribe's compound.

"Yea, we're close enough. Spread your senses out and take a look right over here." Cain spoke with a clear, determined mind.

When he finished talking, his and Kali's Spirit Senses spread out miles ahead of them. Almost immediately, they both detected numerous powerful presences.

Nearly everyone they detected had an incredibly powerful aura. Though they couldn't compare it to their own levels at this distance, it did get Cain and Kali to become serious.

Then, at the same time, the sibling duo poked their heads out and around the tree. Their eyes narrowed on a massive sight a few miles away from them.

At this part of the Tribal Domain, there weren't many trees or bushes. Instead, for most likely hundreds of miles, there were a plethora of various buildings, pavilions, and temples.

All of these structures didn't look as futuristic as the Kong Clan's structure. The appearance here gave Cain a more rural feel.

Still, most of these buildings extended well high up in the skies, painted with intricate art designs, and emitted faint glowing lights.

On the dirt road leading to this place, dozens of men and women wearing brown leather armor walked in and out. Even from a distance, Cain and Kali could accurately spot the expressions on these people's faces.

Each of them looked incredibly haughty, as if they owned the whole world with a flip of their palm.

Compared to the Kong Clansmen, these people didn't look like they were in a war at all.

And, of course, this place was none other than the Liang Tribe's compound!

Though Cain and Kali were at a considerable distance, anyone walking in and out of the Liang Tribe's compound still should've been able to sense them.

But, with the extraordinary abilities of the Chaotic Emerald, this problem was nill for the sibling duo. They both stood right under a behemoth of tribe noise without anyone noticing.

This achievement alone would frighten even the greatest of masters.

"Fuu~. Look at this?" Kali quietly whistles, her lips curving up in increasing excitement. "So many powerful Nascents here. And don't even get me started on the Profound Soul figures. Truly, I wish we could go wild."

In her lament, Kali had to force down her Dragon instincts to take on a great challenge and dominate the Liang Tribe.

She may be proud of her breakthrough, but it wouldn't matter at all in the face of a Profound Soul expert.

Hell, she knows a peak Nascent Formation Master can slap her and Cain down in a single strike. It was nasty thought to sallow, but she had no other choice but to suppress herself.

And Kali wasn't the only one needing to suppress herself. Cain as well had to force down his rising Dragon instincts to fight.

Though, compared to Kali, he had a much easier time doing so.

After all, he had plenty of experience suppressing his true desires because it was the most logical choice.

Calming himself, Cain then said, "Remember, we're just here for the key, that's it. The temptations are just too great to pass up."

"Right, right, brother. Still, I suppose this would be far more interesting than following some minor human clans rules. So, you ready to get started?" Kali turned his eyes from the compound and asked Cain.

With a thought, Cain surged his soul energy, bringing out his Chaotic Emerald. "Indeed. Give me a second now. It takes some time to extend my soul to its fullest limits. Hopefully, what that guy told is true."

In terms of range, on their own, Cain's Spirit Sense is superior to his Soul Sense.

However, when Cain uses Chaos Energy and connects with the Chaotic Emerald, then his range massively trumps his Spirit Sense.

When he was in the Spirit Realm, Cain could causally teleport 50 miles ahead with the Emerald.

And now, after crossing over two levels in the Nascent Formation realm, Cain felt his soul grow slightly stronger.

Though it's just a slight increase in power, it still managed to extend the range of his Chaos Energy soul sense.

With all this in mind, Cain was banking that he could specifically detect the key's Spirit Energy.

Promptly when he brought the Emerald out, Cain shut his eyes. In an instant, he grasps 5% of Chaos Energy with his soul energy and then spreads his Soul Sense to its maximum limit!

As his soul sense swept across the Liang Tribe's compound, Cain creased his brows.

His senses naturally detected thousands of other presences and various forms of Qi energy. Trying to find the key's Spirit Energy would be a bit tricky, but Cain wasn't discouraged.

He stayed still, lost in complete focus as he sensed around for any trace isolated Spirit Energy.

Seconds quickly trickled by, soon turning into minutes.

And throughout this entire time, Kali remained patiently silently. Then, just as Kali was about to close her eyes to think about other matters, Cain flung his eyes back open.

Kali stood to attention, and Cain had a fiery glint burning within the depths of his pupils.

In a hushed tone, he told her, "It took a bit, but I finally found it.. Come on, it's time for an invasion."
