Chapter 532: Emerging from secluded cultivation
"It is my pleasure to be of assistance."
The Soul King showed a radiant smile as he performed a slight bow toward the Void King.
"Proceed as you see fit. I don't care about the cost, but we must kill that boy. He has already grown too much."
Once that was settled, the Void King turned to the Blood King, and his eyes began to glow as the starlight in them burst with overwhelming gravitational power.
"¡BOOM!"
Before the Blood King could react, a shocking gravitational force coalesced around his body, sending him crashing into the ground and breaking the chair in which he was seated.
The Blood King immediately tried to fight back, but just as he raised his head a few centimeters off the ground, the Void King appeared beside him and thrust his head back down.
"CRACK!"
The sound of breaking bones echoed across the room, and it seemed that the Void King was ready to shatter the skull of the Blood King.
"If it weren't for the fact we are at war, I would kill you here and now for lying to me. You are lucky, but there will not be a second time, as I will shatter every atom in your body the next time you fail me."
As soon as the voice of the Void King faded, so did the gravitational force. The Void King did not even bother to glance at the Blood King and left the room.
The Soul King and Shadow King stared at the Blood King with disdain and pity before leaving as well.
The skill allowed Cain to shift his position in space, which is commonly used to put distance between an Essence Cultivator and his enemies. Yet, a dual cultivator like Cain could use it to get closer to the enemy and take full advantage of his body's power.
After that, Cain waved his blade again, but this time, no attack came. Or at least not where his blade struck.
"¡BOOM!"
An arc of blood energy struck the wall on the other end of the room, nearly one hundred meters away from Cain's location. That was also a Crimson Void technique called Warp Strike that allowed Cain to teleport energy strikes to unexpected locations, striking enemies from multiple directions and unpredictable angles.
Cain couldn't help but smile as he saw the power of that strike. He clenched his grip over Slaughter as he reached the fourth level of the Crimson Void Cultivation Technique.
The Crimson Void Cultivation Technique had five levels, which were in order: Foundation Stage, Consolidation Stage, Blood Master Stage, Voidblood Nexus Stage, and Divine Voidblood Stage. Reaching the fourth level meant Cain's mastery over the technique was just as high as that of a Peak Apotheosis Master.
Not only would his attacks have more power, but he should finally be able to use the cultivation technique's signature domain skill.
Just as Cain was about to take out the Spatial Orb he obtained from Lord Zanginis, a message arrived through his [A.I. Chip Module].
"Boy, are you ready? We should not delay the ceremony anymore if we want you to enter the Astral Bloodline Realm."
Cain's eyes widened as he heard that, and he focused on the date, realizing there were already just three days until the opening of the Astral Bloodline Realm. He had lost himself in his cultivation and forgotten about the passage of time.
"I am heading out."
Cain took a moment to seal his Astral Wave and use the red mask that had fused into his flesh to hide his Astral Rebirth Path of Power. He could still use the sunlight energy to infuse his attacks and perform the range of skills granted by his Solis Lineage, but using Essence Wave as the fuel would diminish their raw strength.
"It is fine. Even if I only use my Essence Evolution Path of Power, I should be able to deploy battle power at the upper stages of the Apotheosis Realm."
