The Chaos Dragon Prince

Since all the attention was on him, Cain did seriously consider Jin Ya's question. Even at a distance away, his eyes roamed over Jin Ya's entire body.

Once again, it wasn't a stare of lust or beauty appreciation. But rather, her pure worth as a Divine realm cultivator.

Perhaps if it was a day, years ago, Cain would've felt a bit strange about judging someone's worth based solely on their Martial cultivation. He would feel some sort of empathy for those with lower talent but high dreams.

Nowadays, it wasn't as Cain lost his empathy, rather, he just had realistic expectations. His mind had truly fused with the value of the God Galaxy society and even began forming his own idea.

The life of a successful Martial cultivator to Cain was all about recognizing one's strengths and weakness.

Even when faced with tremendous adversaries, seemingly impossible-to-overturn situations or a mountain that is higher than the heavens, a true Martial cultivator would know when to risk it all, when to compromise, when to retreat and when to fully show off.

It's why Cain paid a bit more attention to Jin Ya than Ren Bao and Fan Fu. Jin Ya specifically has the tenacity to know her limits but still strive for her own greater heights.

In only the short time they spent together, Cain had a faint perception of Jin Ya's unique Martial Heart. This was a person who, if they don't meet an untimely end, would break past limits and bring shock to all. A mistake would be to underestimate her because of her slightly lacking Martial talent when compared to other higher Divine Talents.

Cain was just about to speak when Amber suddenly transmission to him. 'This one makes me remember of someone...remember all the way back to the Heaven Sky Planet, Azure Lightning City?'

Slightly startled, Cain sorted his memory about that place. Despite it being some time since then, his Spiritual Sea could perfectly picture that place as if he had just been there yesterday.

He curiously said, 'Yea, what about?'

'Mn, I was just thinking she reminds me of this number one genius from the Azure Lightning Sect. A guy so upfront and in my eyes, crazy enough to make wild demands all so he can further his Martial Path. Fufu, thinking about it, you two probably would've gotten along for a bit.' Amber spoke in a light-hearted tone.

Cain nearly cracked a smile. 'Yea, but during that time, maybe Kali would've scared him off with her, well, aggressive personality. But in any case, I know what you're trying to suggest. This is your roundabout saying she has some worth, right?'

'I suppose you can say that.' Amber mentally shrugged. 'Just feel like this nut will be obsessed with us, mainly you, to the point where can make some great feats.'

Whether it was mortal or divine, the perseverance one had toward Martial cultivation must always be firm. But more often than not, cultivators tend to be loose on this ideal when their lives become comfortable.

Perhaps there was more worth than what Cain sees on the surface.

'I see...alright then.' Cain already had his mind up. But after that conversation, he felt further reinforced about his decision.

Only moments of silence later did Cain let out a small chuckle. "Heh, alright. If you can make it in, I won't deny any request you might have."

"Ok. It's a promise!"

Once she finished speaking, Jin Ya promptly closed her eyes, adjusting back to her full focus. Her mental state quickly returned to calm in a single instant.

Jiang Ling lingered his gaze on Jin Ya for a moment before shifting back to the duo. While nudging his head up, he tossed over two cloud design badges to the duo and said, "Follow me. If you have never been to a Holy Land before, it will be quite a surprise."

Jiang Ling took the lead as he turned into a trail of light that pierced the clouds.

Despite having the natural speed of a half-step Divine Ruler, Cain and Amber had zero problems following closely behind.

Elder Heng finally turned back her attention to the other youths. Now, her attention focused specifically on Jin Ya as she waved her hand and wrapped the three up in her unfathomable Aura. "Now then, don't let that whole battle discourage you. Give it your all and you may end up obtaining a chance of a lifetime."

Out of the three, only Jin Ya showcased considerable confidence. Ren Bao and Fan Fu can feel the sweat pouring down their brows.

But never once did Jin Ya re-open her eyes, truly attaining the most focus possible. She was utterly determined to make her promise to Cain fulfilled.

...

In only a few seconds, Cain's group had approached the beautiful sea of clouds. These batches of clouds were incredibly distinct.

Through Cain and Amber's eyes, they were able to faintly spot colorful energy runes sparsely flashing within the clouds.

These runes weren't simply made up of Divine Qi. Rather, they were formed by pure Source Laws. Thus, these combined Law runes could create a more hypnotic sea of clouds compared to what the duo previously experienced.

Already, Cain and Amber can admit a Holy Land was impressive if this was simply the entrance.

When reaching close to the higher plane of clouds, the badges within Cain, Amber, and Jiang Ling's hands pulsated. Flickers of light steam from the badges and directly split open the sea of clouds.

Flying right through the opening, Cain and Amber felt as if they had truly entered a new world.

The air was utterly pure to the point it felt like their bodies were experiencing baptism. The dense Heaven and Earth's Divine Essence lived up to the legends of a Holy Land environment.

Nothing the duo experienced before could match up to this. Furthermore, the central area of Cloudsea Holy Land was immense in its size.

With only causally looking around, Cain spotted pavilions as wide as countries and celestial mountains as wide as continents. There was also a divine bird beast of various exotic species tearing through the air.

Amplifying everything, a soothing melody permanently flowed through the area. It was faint, but still noticeable enough to calm the mental states of Divine Cultivators.

These massive areas may appear as overwhelming, but when seeing the population of people in just this main area, Cain and Amber immediately understood why Holy Land or Sects like these needs to be so immense in size.

Disciples, Elders, World Spirit Masters, and even young children were continually shuffling in or out of these areas.

From the immortal palaces, heavenly pavilions, great temples, or some other celestial sight, there wasn't a single place that didn't have people flowing in and out.

The massive size of the God Galaxy wasn't just for show. With the continuous innovations of Martial Cultivation and World Spirit Masters, it has become effortless to reproduce.

It would be rarer to find places that lacked some kind of lifeforms. And those areas would be dangerous places for any God Galaxy inhabited.

Cain suddenly had a thought. He subconsciously transmitted to Amber, 'It really isn't a wonder why our competition is so intense. There may be a great number of people, but the Great Dao and the Heaven and Earth can only produce so much...'

'Now you see why I'd rather do everything quietly? Things get too complicated with so many people around.' Amber sighed, feigning exhaustion.

As they conversed, Jiang Ling noticed their expressions and was delighted to see the duo enamored. He caught their attention by saying, "You can call this the central hub of our Holy Land. Here, you will also have direct access to the lower levels of the sect. But for now, let me show you to your new residency."

Once again turning into trails of lights, Jiang Ling led the duo straight towards the prime genius living quarters.

Halfway through their flight, Jiang Ling suddenly detected several familiar auras rushing over to them.

He stopped and turned over to Cain and Amber with an apologetic expression. "Sorry about the delay. But you two are quite famous even before coming here, so..."

"We don't mind it. In fact, I've expected to get stopped earlier." Cain causally shook his head with an indifferent look.

Truth be told, Jiang Ling had actually chosen the quickest and most secluded route to get to the genius living quarters. But it appears that word-of-mouth spreads very quickly.

Moments later, Jiang Ling spotted several familiar youths rushing up to him.

Leading the pack was a handsome young man along with other extraordinary youths. Each of them rippled with powerfully dense Divine Aura and exuded the faint presence of Laws that can affect the world of them.

Cain and Amber took slight notice of these youths. They all were Divine Star warriors and the one leading was a late-stage genius on a similar level as Du Hu or Demon Tao.

Furthermore, neither Cain nor Amber doubted that these geniuses have upper-tier prowess, which would make them incredibly hard to fight against for even higher minor boundary warriors.

The duo took notice of the standards of geniuses for when they inevitably go on to higher realms.

Any Holy Land foundation can't be underestimated. If not careful, they may end up in troublesome situations with people they look down upon.

At this time, unaware of the duo's critical thoughts, Jiang Ling wore a calm smile as he waved to the youths. "Junior Long. It's good to see you again. And it seems like you made some progress with your cultivation."

Junior Long, whose real name is Kei Long, bashfully scratched his head with a sheepish smile. "You flattered me, Senior brother. I've only managed to get into some lucky encounters. And..."

As Kei Long trailed off, he and the other youths all placed their attention on Cain and Amber. The moment they did, everyone in Kei Long's group felt as if their hearts briefly stopped.
