Chapter 29 - Interrupting
Cain and Kali were leisurely strolling through the dark shaded woods, feeling far more relaxed than just a day ago.
Previously, because they were still at low levels and unsure about their combat prowess, they had no choice but to be intently alert at that time.
No matter how mystical their bloodline is or how extraordinary their birthplace was, none of that matters when they're on their own.
However, all of their thoughts and stature changed within a short quick day.
From utterly crushing several powerful Liang Tribe members to now their current cultivation level, Cain and Kali had enough backing to support their more relaxed approach.
At this point, they both were wholly assured no other Spirit Opening being can ever be their match. Their densely powerful Spirit Qi can easily crush any other cultivator's regular Spirit Qi.
Moreover, Cain and Kali even had the thought they could fully cross over a great realm to contend with Nascent Formation cultivators!
Of course, this was merely an entertaining thought to them.
Initially, Cain considered that they genuinely can, but Kali was quick to shoot down this idea.
From her explanation, she said that it's actually extremely rare a genius among geniuses can ever fight above a great realm.
Even if that extraordinary genius was at the half-step stage leading towards the next great realm, it would still be tremendously difficult to ever fight against the full realm.
There was a variety of reasons that dictated this.
For instance, to the stronger aura suppression a higher realm would have, an evolved form of Qi Energy or even a tremendously powerful cultivation manual.
The only feasible way cultivators can make up this extreme difference is with talismans, unique artifacts, specially crafted powerful weapons, or a high-level World Spirit Force Master.
For items that can allow cultivators to perform seemingly impossible feats, it was an easy concept for Cain to grasp.
All that is just using external resources, not one's own strength.
However, what confused and intrigued him was apparently World Spirit Force Master having the ability to deal with cultivators who are at a higher realm.
Unfortunately though, Kali didn't have much information on this.
As far she knows, World Spirit Force Masters rarely needed to fight. Because of their own more useful mystical abilities, they would already have thousands of willing cultivators at their beck and call to fight for them.
Most of the time, World Spirit Force Masters are not known for their outrageous strength.
However, there are unforgettable legends forged by World Spirit Force Masters that are known across all God Galaxies.
Legends that include World Spirit Force Masters who are at far lower realm, brutally crushing higher realm World Spirit Force Masters and cultivators!
The most that Kali knows is that these World Spirit Force Masters used either powerful Spirit formations or simply raw Spirit Energy to cross over great realms.
Such legendary existence can't really be found in their current age.
But those tales reinforced Cain's ideals that he should take far more caution around World Spirit Force Masters. And that he should see if he and Kali could eventually become World Spirit Force Masters.
With that kind of power under their control, just how much more powerful can they get?
But that was a thought for later.
Since Cain and Kali started their leisurely stroll, around ten minutes passed.
From the map, they did have somewhat of a clear path to go on. But, they didn't want to end up a tribe that would enslave on first eye contact, so they opted to see if they could stumble upon this apparent Kong Clan.
The sibling duo hoped they would be more accommodating. And if not, they would just go with their usual course of action.
Right then, before Cain and Kali took another step, their Qi Senses went off. They both sensed the intense clash of Spirit Qi rippling through the air.
Even without their Qi Sense, the fact that the air was becoming hotter and the wind was stirring in a frenzy would inform anyone that a battle is nearby.
At that moment, broad grins split across both Cain and Kali's faces.
"Hmmm….just a bunch of seventh and eighth levels. Not really strong at all. Though, the fact there is such a large group may just be what needs Cain. Want to check it out?"
Kali had already set her sights on where the ripples of Spirit Qi was coming from.
Cain, of course, nodded his head, agreeing with Kali. "Yea, let's go. Although, when we get there, let's see how it plays out for a second. I'm curious to see if it's the Kong Clan or random passersby."
Kali wordlessly nodded. Without her even realizing it, she was quickly coming to terms with accepting Cain's orders as if he was the leader. It simply felt far too natural for her to honestly notice it.
At the same time then, Cain and Kali swiftly rushed over to the huge battle currently undergoing.
Neither were worried about getting sensed since Cain had reapplied their chaotic concealment.
In no time at all, the sibling duo quickly crossed over around 200 meters of distance. As they approached, they could already hear the sounds of bodies hitting the ground.
The stench of blood permeating the air, and a considerable portion of the area was ruined by clashes of Spirit Qi energies.
Before Cain and Kali got extremely close, they swiftly dashed behind a vast tree. As long as nobody could see them, the sibling duo can essentially go entirely undetected.
Right then, Cain and Kali slowly poked their heads out from the side of the tree and focused their eyes just merely 100 feet away from them.
'Oh? It seems the battle is already done.' Cain couldn't help musing to himself.
Indeed, a hundred feet away, the battle of two groups was already over.
One group was identical to the one Cain and Kali previously killed.
There were seven of them, all wearing the same brown leather armor design. Five out of the seven were all seventh-level Spirit Opening cultivators. While the last two were eight-level powerhouses.
Without a doubt, these were Liang Tribe members.
As for the other group, it also consisted of seven young men. The difference between them was they all were wearing uniquely designed red leather armor.
And each of them was only seventh-level Spirit Opening cultivators.
With just a glance, anyone can tell the outcome of a battle if these two groups fought without even having to see them fight.
If it was just one eighth-level Spirit Opening cultivator against several seventh levels, then the balance would obviously tip in the other side's favor.
After all, at least in the Spirit Opening realm, the difference in levels isn't so monumentally significant as compared to later realms.
If one side has overwhelming numbers and powerful items, they would have the chance to surmount a single higher level.
However, such wasn't the case here.
With the Liang Tribe members not only having several seventh levels but also two eighth levels, their win was only inevitable.
Blood was spilled all over the ground at their battle site. Each Liang Tribe member stood tall and arrogantly over the red leather armor group.
All the while, everyone in the red leather armor group was kneeling on the ground, bleeding profusely out of their pores and intensely panting.
Seeing the red leather armor warriors all pathetically kneeling to them caused the Liang Tribe members to gain disdainful smiles.
Then, the leader of their squadron took a bold step forward, setting his sights on one specific red leather armor warrior.
"Do you now realize how useless this battle was? From the beginning, you should've known this would be the only outcome. And now, you only have two choices. Obediently accept the slave seal or die!"
The leader of the Liang Tribe had a frighteningly sinister smile as he spoke. From behind him, his other members also started to make low snide comments, relishing in their absolute superiority.
Most obviously, barring any practical reason for their actions, the Liang Tribe members took great satisfaction from being mercilessly cruel to their foes.
However, no matter how disadvantageous their position was, the red leather armor cultivators never showed a single expression of fear.
The red leather armor group leader ferociously glared at the Liang Tribe members and practically spat out, "Fuck off! Kill us if you want; our Kong Clan will be the last standing in this war!"
"Peh. Pathetically delusional. Brother Shao, it seems like they all want to be loyal dogs in the end." A person right beside the Liang Tribe leader viciously spoke up.
Shao also carried the same vicious light in his eyes and tone as he then started to say,
"It appears so. Well then, since we're going to finish this, I suppose we should make an exa-"
Suddenly, Shao couldn't finish his sentence. An intense gust of wind blasted by them all, nearly knocking everyone to the ground!
Before anyone could question the sudden intense wind, two horrifying sounds boomed into everyone's eardrums.
'Ka-Cha!'
The brutally horrific noise of bones shattering to bits rocked everyone's mind. Fresh crimson blood squirted high into the air and rained down to the ground like a fountain.
No wails of anguish were even heard.
All in an instant, everyone can sense that two of the seventh-level Liang Tribe members had died.
At that moment, everyone from the Liang Tribe members to the Kong Clan members froze. They didn't know just what to think.
In a split moment, two seventh-level Spirit Opening cultivators died without a trace?!
Plus, none of them could even sense who did it?!
Terrifying….far too terrifying!
The previous arrogance the Liang Tribe members had shattered in an instant. A creeping fear surged into the remaining members.
Each of them felt like their deaths were coming next! And yet, none of them could force their bodies to move; the fear was too great.
Right then, as if to amplify this terrifying scene, a sweet-sounding woman's voice cut into the air.
"You Liang Tribe people… ..it's natural to act so boastful with a lot of power. But, aren't you all a bit too cruel, no?"
