Zhou Ping could only dumbly utter out, "Lee, Xun? You two actually reached the Great Divine Sea realm? This-this is just..."
Nothing but pure shock rose from the very being of Zhou Ping's soul. He may not have known when either Cain or Amber reached Divine Origin or their skeletal age, but at the very least, it couldn't possibly be older than a Divine Star Elder!
The duo had to be at least in their early 20s. Their Vitality force brimmed with a sun-like intensity, similar, to or perhaps, surpassing those of their ages.
If they were old, their Vitality force would be weak, dried up with a slightly sickening quality.
Of course, if Cain and Amber were high realm cultivators, then they would be able to easily hide their Vitality force. But given that their Divine Auras were genuinely in the Divine Origin realm and now firmly within the Great Divine Sea realm, their ages couldn't possibly be that high.
Yet already, the duo crossed the Great Divine Sea chasm. A chasm that takes exceptional geniuses like his eldest brother several years to cross.
No other words could accurately describe them other than freakish genius.
With a typical reaction, he had come used to seeing. Cain waved his hand and said, "We've just managed to get lucky during our time out. Come on, let's go somewhere to speak privately."
His words instantly jolted Zhou Ping awake. A more somber look cross his face as he solemnly nodded. "Yes, we have much to di-"
Before Zhou Ping finished speaking, three Divine Auras swept through the area.
Two of the Divine Aura specifically engulfed the atmosphere for miles, as if everything was under their control. The presence of superior Laws smashed down Great Divine Sea cultivator's souls, giving them a frightening chill that crawl through their entire beings.
Nearly everyone in the immediate surrounding froze dead in their tracks. Attention turned as fervent, awe-filled dozens of people's faces.
"Ah-ah! That's the Cloudsea prime genius! Just as beautiful as a fairy...but...who-who is he??"
"That man is far stronger than her and feels so cold. His gave...ugh...it feels like my chest is tightening on its own."
"He's also from Cloudsea! Holy hell...they can really produce geniuses like this so easily?!"
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"Hey, isn't that young master Ling with them as well? So the rumors were more than what was told!"
Indeed, what captured everyone's attention were three extraordinary people quickly flying over towards Cain's group.
One was the direct descendent Zhou Ling. While the other two wore matching disciples' uniforms and radiated suffocating presences.
One of them was a fairy-like woman, possessing a high beauty that seemed divinely crafted. Her face appeared cold, but not to a point of putting off people. But rather, she could gather a crowd of loyal fans with her otherworldly temperament.
As for the man, everything about him was faintly superior to the young maiden. His presence suffocated the weak Divine Star Zhou Elders. His natural Divine Aura made Great Divine Sea cultivators completely shiver in fear and the cold gleam of his eyes could make any Divine Origin cultivator's heartbeat stop.
He was an expert that cultivated far in the Divine Star realm, a Late Stage Divine Star genius!
These Cloudsea geniuses and Zhou Ling's Divine Auras fully crushed Cain and Amber. They didn't showcase any killing intent, but still tried to show off a strong position before even talking.
Many in the duo's position would already be gasping for air. Even Zhou Ping felt it was hard to breathe by just being in the duo's general vicinity.
Unknowingly, Zhou Ping had to retreat a few meters back. His cultivation, after all, was only at the Great Divine Sea realm. Much less the Divine Star geniuses, even Zhou Ling can greatly pressure him.
A faint sense of worry arouses Zhou Ping. His eyes snapped towards Cain and Amber but still didn't see any flickering emotions on their faces.
In fact, their clothes didn't rustle, nor did their hair wave from the triple Divine Auras. It was as if they were in their own little world, completely unaffected by the subtle presence of stronger Laws.
Zhou Ping could only silently stare at the duo in increasing awe.
At this moment, just like Zhou Ping's obverse, neither Cain nor Amber's expression even slightly changed from being stone cold.
Pure indifference rooted in their gazes as they causally swept over the three youths. They stared right back, not budging an inch and exuding faint, indescribable confidence.
All in surroundings hurriedly retreated at a comfortable distance from the scene. Not too far to lose what they're saying, but also not close enough to become implicit with the situation.
A few meters before the duo, Zhou Ling and the Holy Land geniuses stop. Gleaming lights crossed the Holy Land geniuses' eyes as they observed Cain and Amber from top to bottom.
Zhou Ling briefly narrowed his eyes, noting the duo's increased cultivation. If he can recall right, these two were merely Divine Origin nearly a week ago!
Even more frustrating, the faint Divine Aura they were currently exuding was densely thick, to an unbelievable degree. Such firm robustness caused a silent feeling of pressure to grasp Zhou Ling's neck.
Fear nearly crept through Zhou Ling's mind.
But at the same time, Zhou Ling quickly remembers on his own side were two Late Stage Divine Star geniuses!
No matter if they could cross into the Great Divine Sea from Divine Origin, could they really repeat that with the superior Laws of a Divine Star genius? At least, that's what Zhou Ling forced himself to believe.
Zhou Ling forced himself to dismiss the duo's calm as just simple confidence. Being at the front of the group, he tried to boldly speak out to gather an overwhelming momentum.
"Ah. If it isn't Sir Lee and Miss Xu-"
Before Zhou Ling could even finish saying Amber's fake name, the duo traded a brief glance that went unnoticed by many eyes.
Shattering any attempts at momentum, the duo took things into their own hands!
"Indeed, it is us."
As Cain decisively cut off Zhou Ling, his and Amber's Divine Aura slightly intensified. Though they just slightly exerted their Inner World, it caused an immense change in the surrounding area.
The domineering presence of both Cloudsea geniuses suddenly vanished. Any sensations of Divine Star Laws disappeared as if they didn't exist in the first place.
Cain and Amber's Divine Aura didn't clash with the geniuses, rather, they simply dispersed the geniuses' Law fluctuations altogether!
After all, Divine Auras are the outward manifestation of a cultivator's Inner World abilities. The principles contained within one's Divine Qi and Source Laws would ripple out through Divine Aura manifestation.
As Cain and Amber's Inner World contains Divine Qi and Law comprehension far greater than that of the Great Divine Sea realm, it was more than simple for them to disperse the surface-level Laws of these Divine Star geniuses!
"Wha?...This pressure? Or rather, lack of pressure?"
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"My lord, did they really just cancel out Divine Star geniuses' pressures with just a gaze?!"
Eyes widen at this incredible claim. Such a subtle way of utilizing already put the duo far beyond the capabilities of a Great Divine Sea cultivator.
Many Extreme Great Divine Sea cultivators within the surrounding crowd just knew they would be helpless in the same position. Even half-step Divine Star warriors doubted they could fair any better.
Unknowingly, a showdown of geniuses had already begun.
The prelude to any cultivator event would always be important.
When they need to show off, neither Cain nor Amber will shy away!
Even the slightest of gestures such as exerting their Divine Auras carried significant weight. It told many things about the duo's characters, cultivation comprehension, and their Inner World foundation.
The fact the duo can easily suppress the faint Laws of Late Stage and, equal to Late Stage Divine Star geniuses, spoke great voles.
Neither Cain nor Amber can simply be counted as simple Great Divine Sea geniuses. No, they should be counted as Divine Star prowess equivalent!
Zhou Ling and the two Divine Star geniuses instantly cleared away any of their previous overconfidence.
In fact, the young maiden flew in front of Zhou Ling and clearly spoke to Cain. "Sir Lee. Miss Xun. We've heard much about you and are rather curious to finally meet in person. My name is Du Hu. And this is my senior brother, Demon Tao. I must say, seeing you in person certainly surpasses all rumors surrounding you."
Cain and Amber definitely heard Du Hu's words, but they didn't listen to her at all.
At the mention of Demon Tao, for a single brief moment, Cain and Amber's attention intently locked onto Demon Tao.
Initially, they didn't they much about Demon Tao's looks. Things like fearing one's presence were lost on the duo. Their Divine Wills prevented such trivial matters.
However, as they got a good look at Demon Tao, Cain and Amber suddenly recalled a description of Demon Tao given by Zi Yan.
Because of Zi Yan, they were able to instantly identify Demon Tao. The annoyance who continually sent goons after them was right in front of their faces!
No matter how powerful Demon Tao is or his background, neither Cain nor Amber were going to hold back their thoughts.
It was not possible to kill or fight him right now...but other means are useable.
The duo didn't bother concealing their hostility. Their gazes illumed a cold chill as an overflow of killing intent gushed out of them!
It all locked down on Demon Tao, briefly trapping him in a deadly cage.
