The Chaos Dragon Prince

Witnessing that fiery look simmering within the depths of her brother's eyes, Kali narrowed her eyes. More than anything, she could tell how their proceeding conversation would go.

Even if she has her own opinions, it won't matter much at this stage. 

This was evidently the most troublesome path, but if Cain didn't choose it, Kali knew she would feel a bit of disappointment more than anything.

This was the mere influence of her own pride, never wanting to back down, always ready to face the greatest of challenges. 

"I think this doesn't need to be say, but truly, I don't intend to pull Amber away from me. That would be a mistake I won't ever forget."

Not a single hint of hesitation was present in Cain's eyes, only precise determination. His gaze was unwavering akin to a will of a true emperor; nothing could change his mind about this decision.

Kali didn't think she would feel particularly thrilled over this decision, given her lack of care towards Amber. But that fierce determination enrapturing Cain did cause her to let loose a slight smirk.

This kind of expression suited them the best. Moreover, it also spawned an idea within her mind. 

Kali swiftly said, "Well, just do as grandmother said. With that Soul Link, she won't fall that behind in cultivation and would be at least enough for the borderline standard of God Galaxies. Plus, we should just use this moment to reach the Innate Lord realm. Our accumulations are perfect. Staying any more time in the Profound Soul realm is just a waste."

"Mn…" Cain lightly nodded, finally on the same page as Kali's haste to cultivation. 

While the Sky Ruler realm is currently impossible, reaching Innate Lord in just merely three days was more than enough.

Such boastful words and thoughts were causally shared by the siblings. But if the outside were to hear this, their intestines would turn green from this incomparable arrogance. Even God Galaxies geniuses wouldn't dare to say they can breach a Great realm in mere days.

But compared to them, it can be said that the Heavens shined particularly brightly on Cain and Kali. 

At least as of now, the Heavens shine upon them.

Still, even with Cain's high confidence, a flash of worry glinted his eyes. His brows furrowed as he spoke out loud, "You know, we speak with full confidence on cultivation. But…I'm not 100% sure if Amber will match for this Soul Link. And even if it does, I rather not have it influence her decision makings."

"Aren't you worrying too much?" Kali casually shrugged. "I may not have a firm grasp over such things such as feelings or intimate emotions. But, as Martial cultivators, we hardened our Will, allowing ourselves to have a much tighter grasp on our emotions. If it works, then it is all on Amber's violation. If it doesn't, then…it was never meant to be."

Her words were a bit blunt, practically without a hint of empathy. But these were words that Cain needed to hear. His assurance rose though he still had one more worry swirling his mind.

"Ok…ah, damn. I should've asked grandmother about revealing our origins. The drop that I am a Royal Prince from a different plane isn't small at all." 

Listening to this, Kali finally put in a bit more serious thought. She wanted to be helpful, so she sorted through her mind, searching for everything she knew about the Soul ritual. 

Soon enough, her eyes slightly flashed, and she said, "I wasn't taught a lot about the specifics of this Art. But I do recall grandmother saying that the first part of the ritual is creating the foundation for the Soul Link. This would be the test of true feelings. If you could pass, this signifies your absolute trust in each other. Next stage would come fully forming the Dragon Mark. In essence, pass the first stage, and you can tell her anything without worry."

Thinking upon it, Cain briefly fell silent. It wasn't that he held a slight distrust towards Amber. But he rather covered all of his corners before taking on a massive decision like this. 

Being overly cautious is better than mistakes happening.

His silence only lasted for a few seconds. Afterward, determination shined upon Cain's face, his mind clear as water. 

It was finally time to start preparing to return home. 

…

Around nearly an hour later, Cain was the only one left his training room. 

Kali had already left, going off to prepare herself for her next breakthroughs. Because of her lesser Martial Talent, she would need to take far more extra time compared to Cain.

Her speed was still monstrous compared to all others. But the fact that the chasm between her and Cain only continues to grow fueled Kali's determination to unending proportions. 

Afterward, Cain had contacted Amber, asking her to come over for help in cultivation. And though Amber had a natural disinterest towards cultivation, she instantly agreed to Cain's request.

She didn't even ask what he needed, only just for some time to get ready as she was in the middle of reaching a new small boundary in a Spirit Art. 

With all the efforts she put into Spirit energy, Cain could say Amber was only a step away from the Perfection Layer.

Considering only a few weeks have passed since the Spirit Annual Exchange Event, this feat was indeed monstrous. Hell, it was even eclipsing his and Kali's performance. 

Although, Cain knows neither he nor Kali was taking Spirit energy as seriously as Amber.

Nevertheless, her results were praise-worthy. But Cain didn't pay too much attention to it. 

During this small duration he had to wait, Cain adjusted his mental state to his absolute calmest and quickly studied upon the Dragon Union Arts.

Because of his extreme perception abilities, it was a simple task to learn the steps to the Soul Ritual. His mental psyche already traced the essence contained within the Art's words.

What Cain truly focused on was sorting out his desires.

In all honesty, after experiencing the flavors of feelings, Cain knew his Martial Nature accepted emotions rather than completely rejecting them. His Martial Heart does indeed desire to explore the truths of the universe Heavenly Dao, but he wasn't going to abandon all other emotions for it.

Perhaps he was far more similar to his kind and caring grandmother than he even realized. Either way, Cain had zero intentions of failing this Soul ritual. 

As Cain peacefully meditated, he finally detected a presence casually approaching the door.

Soon enough, the door swung open, revealing Amber's beautiful form. Her enchantingly crimson eyes flashed with exuberant happiness as a peach blooming smile graced her lips. 

Anytime she sees Cain, it's like a pleasurable lightning bolt jolts throughout her entire being. Legimtately, just seeing Cain would always brighten up her days, virtually being the highlight of it.

"Hey~." 

Lightly tapping her toes, she flew right into Cain's chest, her snow-like arms tightly wrapping around his neck as she mashed her soft body onto him. 

An intoxicating fragrance trailed into Cain's noise, and he soon felt Amber lightly pecking his lips. They both melded into the kiss, feeling the warmth spread from their very core.

After several seconds, Amber pulled back, overt affection clear in her eyes as she asked, "So, what exactly you need me to? And for that matter, what kind of Art will we be practicing? Hope it isn't something crazy. I won't have the energy for it."

Cain faintly smiled, hiding away any submerging nervousness. "Of course, it isn't anything extraneous. In fact, this is enjoyable and beneficial for the best of us. And it requires barely any movement. We will be using a family art of mines that will help with our cultivation and harmonize our feelings with each other."

"Hoh? This is mysterious…I'm intrigued." Genuine curiosity plastered Amber's expression as she quickly sat right up. 

Because it's Cain, her mind instantly thought of mind-breaking Arts there out there.

She didn't even think about any hidden intentions or ask about Cain's family origin. Whenever he becomes ready to share, she would be prepared to listen with completely open arms. 

Until then, she was fascinated to peer into the mystical means of Cain's mysterious family. Only he, an existence that can single handly shatter rules that shouldn't be broken, can greatly intrigue Amber's Marital interest. 

"I'm glad you are. All you need to do is simply hold my hand and don't resist the incoming essence from me. From there, revolve your soul energy in accordance to the sensation of this essence."

After explaining, Cain and Amber promptly linked their hands together. Their eyes simultaneously closed, assimilating into a cultivation state. Seconds slowly trickled by as Cain and Amber adjusted themselves.

Considering the amount of time they spent with each other, simply relaxing in their presence, it didn't take long at all for them to perfectly assimilate in sync. 

When Cain sensed that even their breathings were aligned, he began revolving the Dragon Union Arts.

Days before, he had already taken a considerable amount of time to comprehend the surface level of the Dragon Union Arts. He initially believed he could gain some insights into Dragon essence as a whole and apply that to his Draconic Might.

His results didn't return favorably, but Cain managed to engrave the Dragon Union Arts outline within his mental psyche. 

And now, after studying up on the Soul Layer of this Art, he didn't take long at all to begin the Soul Ritual.

The Dragon Union Arts were divided into two layers: the bloodline layer, which focuses on mixing all energies in both parties' internal bodies into perfect harmonization.

And the Soul Layer focus on creating an unbreakable Soul Link between both parties' Soul's Core, allowing a Soul Dragon Mark to form and for easier absorption of yin-yang bloodline energies.

When studying the Dragon Union Arts, Cain had great respect for the Ancient Dragons that created this. 

The essence contained within this Art was a mixture of Yin, Yang, and Soul Laws. And there were also massive accumulations of the purest of Dragon essence. 

The Martial cultivation they needed to achieve would be incomparably high. Most likely, it underwent hundreds of thousands of years until it reached the perfection it is now.

And as Cain revolved the Soul Layer of the Dragon Union Arts, Dragon essence, and Soul Laws essence released from his mental psyche, spreading down and through his internal body.

At the same time, Cain's Soul's Core stimulated, gushing out streams of Soul energy. 

Cain's Soul energy instantly flowed right into the Dragon Essence and Soul Laws essence, rapidly combining and harmonizing to perfection.

With Cain's extraordinary perception and control, his Soul energy quickly took hold of the Dragon Essence and Soul Law essence. Then, he directed this essence flow straight into his palms, guiding it to absorb into Amber's palm.

Cain was delicate during this process, making sure not even the slightest bit of the essence flow leaked out of his control. He was meticulous, going at a steadfast pace while directing the essence flow into Amber.

If Amber had any the slightest intentions of hesitating, Cain would've felt an instant block within his Soul. 

Like his grandmother and Kali explain, this Soul ritual requires absolute feelings between both parties. 

The slightest mistake means absolute failure. 

Calm as he wants to be, Cain couldn't suppress a bundle of nerves over the possibilities of failure. Even though Cain told her not to resist, deep within Amber's Martial Heart, she could have hidden scrupulous she doesn't even realize which will cause the ritual to fail. 

If that were to happen…he would be placed in a truly difficult position.

But thankfully for him, Cain didn't feel any block on his Soul! The whole process flowed as smoothly as a stream of water. 

Under Cain's thorough guide, Amber fully accepted the Dragon Essence, Soul Law essence, and Cain's Soul energy!
