Chapter 692 The Galaxy Wide Event
The days quickly passed.
Cain, without knowing it, fell into a daily routine. He was still worried about getting back to Cloudsea Holy Land. But his time cultivating with Zexi alleviated a great amount of tension.
They practically spent every waking moment together. Both in the day and at night. None really questioned them considering Cain\'s immense status.
These serene days of cultivating didn\'t directly improve Cain\'s cultivation base. However, his understanding of divine soul laws was greatly enhanced. Nearly reaching the standards of Divine Ruler!
He was only a faint line away from Supreme Divine Soul law principles.
On this day, Cain was peacefully cultivating with Zexi as per usual within his courtyard. They were enjoying themselves without a care in the world. Their divine lightning beautifully intertwines with each other.
Neither of them believed anything special would happen. But everything changed within a second.
A presence rippled. Extending across the entire divine world, suppressing all worldly laws known to the heavens.
A voice boomed across every inch of the God Galaxy.
Indeed, not just the Central Starfield. But also the low, middle, and high realms!
"The Martial Heavenly Gathering will soon begin. The Dao Spring Princh Realm will open first!"
Cain and Zexi were completely frozen. Their eyes widened at such power rippling across the entire God Galaxy.
But only a moment later, the voice vanished along with its worldly suppressive laws. Everything returned to normal.
Yet Zexi was still in a stunned daze. While Cain curled his brows deep in thought. \'That voice...it was unfathomable. But my Chaos senses could detect it wasn\'t strictly the power of one Heavenly Venerate. So many Dao sensations...it had to be several peak powerful ones! Still, such a force is no joke.\'
A slight sigh escaped Cain\'s lips. He looked over to Zexi with a casual smile. "So? I take it this is some kind of annual competition among the younger generation."
"Ah?" Zexi blinked, quickly returning back to reality. She shook her head with a wry smile. "Of course, you\'re so calm about this. But my teachers taught informed me of this event. Those in the Heavenly Great Worlds announcing to all of a galaxy-wide competition. Where the best of the best talents participate. To anyone else in our Starfield, I would say it best to forget about it. But you, brother Cain, I can tell things are about to get very interesting for you."
These were the terrifying talents that stay at the summit of the entire universe that Zexi was referring to. Such talent that can frighten the hearts of old cultivation masters and grandmasters.
But all Cain had was a slight, casual smile. He was about to speak up, but a voice flowed through his mind.
An enthralling Dao force engulfed his Spiritual Sea. Azure Thunder had come to speak with him.
\'Cain, bring along Zexi to the imperial chambers. We have to discuss what just happened.\'
The line promptly went dead after.
Cain was a bit taken aback. \'Zexi too?\'
It wasn\'t as if Zexi was a bad talent. She\'s far superior to those direct disciples of Cloudsea Holy Land. But just this shouldn\'t be enough to enter the sight of a Heavenly Venerate.
Cain didn\'t disobey orders, however. He simply told Zexi, "Get up. Ancestor Azure Thunder wants to see both of us."
"An ancestor?!" Zexi couldn\'t shoot to her feet fast. Her face was in utter bewilderment. "Re-really? Bu-but why? I know my limits. And for damn sure, I\'m no better than my senior brother and sisters."
"I\'m clueless too. Maybe something special was considered? Or, I guess it\'s strictly because of our relations? But no point in guessing around. Let\'s go."
They were confused, but it was impossible to question a Heavenly Venerate\'s order.
Cain led Zexi as he quickly flew towards the same imperial chamber holding all of the Heavenly Venerates. The same badge brought him through the spirit formations and transmission arrays.
Before entering, Cain silently waved a pulse of Chaos energy over Zexi. Making sure her mind wouldn\'t be overwhelmed.
The duo soon entered the Venerate\'s chambers. Cain was quick to notice there weren\'t any other Heavenly Venerates sitting on the thrones.
Only one remained, who was the most powerful of them all.
"We greet ancestors!" Cain respectfully bowed while Zexi directly kneeled.
Her mind couldn\'t be more in wonder. To be in the face of a legendary existence, just how blessed is she?
The pressure and suppression were unfathomable. Sweat could be felt dribbling down. And yet, Zexi found it surprising she could still breathe properly.
Her eyes flickered to Cain, internally thinking, \'He\'s not even the slightest bit pressure. Is he also helping me out?\'
Her question wouldn\'t be answered at this moment.
"Rise, both of you." Azure Thunder calmly spoke. Her voice carried a mystical force that gently rose both Cain and Zexi.
Azure Thunder\'s gaze wandered all over the duo. Seemingly seeing right past their flesh and into their souls. She had to internally nod when seeing that the duo stayed completely calm while under her gaze.
"I will cut to the chase. This gathering is actually far sooner than expected. We estimated a few more years than mere weeks. Meaning, you two will need to stop whatever plans you may have and pour all of your focus into this." Azure Thunder told.
Without any resistance, Cain and Zexi nodded. "Understood."
Though she said it, Zexi was mildly panicking on the inside. She didn\'t honestly believe for a second that she was now near the level to stand on equal footing with a demonic genius like Cain.
But Azure Thunder continues to speak without any change in tone. "Since it is your two first time participating, I will explain the Dao Spring Peach realm. Here is a massive opportunity for you both. The resources inside can greatly benefit the Inner World and the Spiritual Sea. The environment is suitable for perception cultivation. And, the greatest prize, the Dao Spring Peach, can directly promote your cultivation perfectly without any flaw or unstable foundation."
\'So good?\' Cain\'s and Zexi\'s eyes brighten with greed. They had only progressed not too long ago. But already they were presented with a golden opportunity for further advancement.
Though, the duo knows gaining such an opportunity won\'t be easy at all.
Azure Thunder then tossed over a spatial ring at Cain. "In here is the in-depth information about the Gathering and those who will come. The Heavenly Great World is really generous. They will be personally sending out items to numerous intelligence networks that will allow those from lower realms to cross into the Central Starifled. Though a hefty price must be paid for it. Prepare well. All who will come is the very best the God Galaxy has to offer."
The big stages of the universe were finally coming to them.
Zexi treated this completely seriously. She had no other option but to face this as the greatest task in her life.
While Cain felt oddly enlightened. So many fights he\'s been in had always been won easily because of his superior talent. Now, he was about to face those seemingly invincible figures at the top of the universe.
He was hopeful. Wishing that this time, fighting against the top figures would bring him that blood-pumping thrill of battle.
Above all, he hadn\'t missed what Azure Thunder. The fact that it may very well be possible to meet Amber, Lan Rui, and Jin Ya!
There wouldn\'t be any hassle about transcending down to a lower realm and needing to specifically locate a single star planet.
Since all that needed to participate was simply cash, Cain sincerely hoped the girls will take this chance.
