Chapter 627 Savage Environment
After all, cultivation only became increasingly difficult with each proceeding realm.
Many Divine Star experts fail to become Divine Rulers even in the best environment. Those who become Divine Ruler would only become the most ordinary of ones. Failing to even touch the borders of the Holy King's realm.
Even if it's artificial, allowing the chance for any powerful organization to grow its forces is beyond amazing.
The benefits were all there. Not many would hesitate in securing this art, whether through open or discreet means.
But Cain held a certain belief against this kind of method. 'Even as their strength increases, their Dao Heart will grow weak and unstable. Not experiencing the true methodical process of cultivation, how can they ever think of creating their own Dao path? No matter what, artificial means can only take a person so far. Perhaps only stopping at the beginning of the Holy King realm.'
This was Cain's own belief in the whole of martial cultivation.
The mystical Laws of the universe weren't just about amassing great strength. Its everlasting purpose would and always will be to enlighten the people of the universe to greater heights.
To allow cultivators and any other lifeforms to understand how the universe works and perhaps grow past the universe that raised them! 𝗳𝘳𝒆𝘦𝑤𝐞𝚋𝗻𝚘𝘷𝘦𝙡.𝑐𝐨𝘮
Cain would still need to actually reach the Holy King realm to finalize his thoughts. But he could at least tell that the Holy King masters began to craft their own unique Dao in preparation for the Primal Sovereign realm.
It's why their Supreme Divine Laws become increasingly unfathomable. Reaching superior heights where their Laws can no longer be understood by the means of ordinary divine cultivators.
These thoughts alone stimulated Cain's Spiritual Sea perception abilities. His understanding grew deeper and deeper to touch upon the edges of the universe.
It was at this time that Cain detected a change in the brown robe cultivators.
They all began to erupt with blissful waves of laughter. Satisfaction rippled from their voices.
"This whole trip just went off perfectly! Alright, let's go home and consolidate our new gains. I'd say in about two weeks we'll be prime enough to go out hunting. Everyone got it?" 𝗳𝒓𝚎e𝚠𝒆𝐛𝐧𝐨v𝚎Ɩ.co𝓶
The brown robe group leader spoke with a commanding presence. His tone barked zero backtalk. All must listen to him.
"Understood!"
The other group members immediately nodded with determined smiles. Afterward, the group leader began walking down a specific trail in the forest.
Cain's interest was heightened. No matter his thoughts on the artificial way of cultivation. It was undeniable that the manipulation of their Laws was precisely unique from what Cain perceived from other divine cultivators.
Perhaps even Holy King masters failed to feel so mystical.
This Wizard Kun was a figure shrouded in mystery. Hence, Cain decided to follow these brown robe cultivators back to their home.
He didn't make a hint of noise as he continually teleported behind them at a reasonable distance away.
His presence was completely undetected. Cain peacefully stayed right on the brown robe cultivator trail.
The route they took wasn't anything complicated. At least on the surface, it seemed straightforward.
A few twists and a couple of turns made it seem like Wizard Kun's territory was easy to access.
But Cain became increasingly impressed at Wizard Kun's craftiness.
The brown robe cultivators were protected by the Law runes glimmering on their fabrics. It provided them with automatic bypass against the hidden detection array.
If it wasn't any other cultivator, the detection array would spew out subtle Law principles into the atmosphere, changing one's scenery without them being able to notice.
That required tremendous control over both Martial Dao Laws and Spirit energy Laws.
None of this was the work of an overtly arrogant person.
Cain could bypass all detection arrays due to his Chaotic teleportation.
Mere minutes into their walk, the scenery had actually changed.
Everything shifted not to the glorious sight the God Galaxy usually has. But something far more primal, more savage compared to others.
Cain was momentarily in slight shock.
The brown robe cultivators all wore blossoming smiles. As if this was the best place in the universe.
"Ahhh...good to be home after a tiring day!" One of them had even joyfully shouted. Though, the brutal atmosphere and scenery contrasted with their joyful mood.
Cain saw various bone-chilling sights. Just a few dozens of meters to his right were a group of three brown cultivators, all of who wore blissfully smile, standing above a mess of what was a human.
These brown robe cultivators all held the same Demon crimson Law lights rippling from their hands. These crimson lights brutally tore right into the fallen human.
His flesh continually peeled away, his organs dried up to useless husks and his expression stayed fraught with utter horror.
The most mind-breaking to the cultivator was the fact that every ounce of his Martial cultivation was getting torn straight out of his soul!
The standing brown robe cultivators held zero traces of remorse. One of them had even said, "With this, peak middle layer Divine Ruler isn't too far off for us. A shame about him. He got way too ambitious for his own good."
A woman in their group coldly snorted. Her eyes flashed with disdain. "We all have great ambitions. That doesn't mean we have to turn into some mindless demon! Honestly, Wizard Kun taught us far better than this. He strayed off too of the right path to ever come back."
"Mn. But even so, those who had strayed off at least still hold some value to all of us." The other man in their group calmly smiled.
It was a bit strange for Cain to hear their conversation. These three seemed like they believe to have a moral superiority. As if the values they taught were absolutely right.
Perhaps in the past, when first coming to this universe, Cain would've had a knee-jerk reaction. Even the common values in the God Galaxy would deem their action as demonic and villainous no matter how they want to spin it.
That all changed for the current Cain. His mindset and values became increasingly broader with his increasing cultivation.
Instead of demonic or evil, he simply sees these Wizard Kun people as great potential threats if they were to become enemies.
Nothing more and nothing less.
Just having this different mindset stimulated Cain's Spiritual Sea. He was far more willing to simply study their brand of Demonic Laws than feel put off by it.
Those three brown robe cultivators weren't the only brutal sight.
Across the whole forest were there various slaughter and cultivation suction taking place.
There was practically no sense of order here. A true law of the jungle. All that mattered was one's personal strength.
If there was no value in their strength, then that person was better off dead!
At least they wouldn't experience a miserable fate, such as their cultivation getting drained from their very being.
Cain briefly paused at the entrance of this new territory. He could just leave to where he came from and put this place out of his mind.
But the facet of curiosity could not leave Cain's mind. Everything just seemed so intriguing to explore.
And this Wizard Kun was shaping up to be a genuinely terrifying expert that he may possibly be unable to defeat.
Although, it was never Cain's goal to invade a territory for a brazen fight. He had other means to go completely incognito and simply obverse.
