The Epic Tale of Chaos vs Order - Chapter 1467
Chapter 1467: An Astral Supremacy Star inside the tomb (II) Chapter 1467: An Astral Supremacy Star inside the tomb (II) Cain felt the questioning gazes of the group, but instead of explaining with words, he reached for the Spear of Doom and swung it downward.
A sharp arc of Star Power shot forward, cutting through the air with terrifying precision.
The arc traveled several hundred meters before colliding with what appeared to be empty space.
“CRACK!” A resounding crash echoed across the plain as the air shattered like glass, revealing a massive magma waterfall.
The torrent was impossibly large, stretching hundreds of thousands of meters into the air and cascading into a molten basin below.
The group stood frozen, their shock palpable.
Had they continued forward as they had been, they would have plunged directly into the fiery deluge.
Even at their peak, the best-case scenario would have been severe injuries; in the worst case, they would have been incinerated.
Elrick and the others turned their awe-filled gazes toward Cain.
None of them had sensed the illusion, not even Mary, who was a master of the Laws of Shadows and Space.
It was clear that Cain possessed sensory abilities far beyond theirs, though they had no way of knowing it was the [A.I.
Chip Module] that had detected the mirage.
Elrick studied Cain for a moment, noting the young man’s composed silence.
Cain’s refusal to reveal the secret behind his extraordinary perception only solidified his mysterious image, and Elrick knew better than to press the issue.
They might be a team for now, but they were still members of the Gu Sect-a faction where betrayal was common.
Had it not been for Lady Azure’s orders, they might already have turned on each other the moment a powerful enough treasure appeared.
After a brief pause, Elrick nodded.
“Elder Laurifer, you will take the lead.
We will follow.” Cain’s sharp gaze swept over the group.
Leading was dangerous, but since he wasn’t willing to reveal the full capabilities of the [A.I.
Chip Module], this compromise was the only solution.
He nodded softly in agreement.
Taking his place at the front, Cain began guiding the group through the treacherous terrain.
The others positioned themselves close behind him, maintaining a tight formation.
Every few hundred meters, Cain shattered another mirage, each one more intricate than the last.
With each new illusion revealed, they adjusted their course, inching closer to the citadel.
Despite the mirages being manageable, thanks to Cain’s [A.I.
Chip Module] tools, their progress was soon hindered by another challenge.
“BOOOOM!” A deafening explosion shook the ground as a massive geyser of liquid fire erupted from the magma.
The radiant pillar of flames rose high into the dimension’s sky, its sheer intensity forcing the group to retreat.
Follow new episodes on the "N0vel1st.c0m".
Even the ones with the strongest bodies among them, like Auro and the Deus Behemoth brothers, would have suffered grievous injuries had the geyser struck them.
Flying above the ground would have mitigated the risk, but the overwhelming radiation in the skies left them no choice but to remain close to the surface.
The citadel was still far in the distance, and no sentient life forms had appeared yet.
But even without an enemy in sight, the dangers of the Sky Sovereign’s Tomb were proving overwhelming.
If they weren’t careful, this place would become their final resting place.
Elrick’s voice cut through the tension.
“Split up.
Remain behind Cain, but make sure you don’t hinder each other’s movements!” The group nodded and spread out slightly, ensuring they had enough room to maneuver to avoid the geysers while still staying within formation.
With a brief gesture, Elrick signaled for them to continue forward.
Cain kept guiding them, using the [A.I.
Chip Module] to navigate the illusions, while the others managed their own survival against the geysers.
Hours passed in tense silence, the group’s progress slowing considerably as exhaustion began to take its toll.
Cain had just shattered another mirage when his instincts flared.
His eyes widened as he darted to the side, narrowly avoiding a geyser of liquid fire that erupted from the magma directly beneath him.
Despite his speed, his right arm was grazed by the flames, leaving a series of severe scorch marks.
A deep frown crossed Cain’s face as he examined the burns.
Without hesitation, he silently activated his Concept of Life.
Warm energy coursed through his body, healing the wounds at a speed visible to the naked eye.
His eyes then swept over the rest of the group, who were watching him closely.
Cain’s voice was calm but firm.
“We need to rest.
Exhaustion is affecting my reaction speed.
If this continues, I might not be fast enough next time.” The group turned to Elrick, who remained the designated leader despite Cain’s role as their guide.
Elrick studied Cain for a moment before nodding.
He wasn’t foolish enough to ignore the dangers of fatigue in such a hostile environment.
Cain gave a small smile of acknowledgment before leading the group to a nearby cavern.
The rocky structure offered shelter from the geysers and provided some protection against the relentless radiation.
Without delay, the group settled in, using the time to recover their strength and replenish their energy reserves.
While the others focused on recuperating, Cain appeared to do the same, but his mind was elsewhere.
The familiar robotic voice of the Absolute Life Form System echoed in his mind.
[Task completed.
The Sub-Atomic Analysis with Energy Manipulation tool can channel the radiation through the Yang Runes covering the Vessel’s body, using them as a filter to remove the dangerous components of the radiation, leaving only pure and usable Astral Supremacy Star energy.] A wide, radiant smile spread across Cain’s face as he processed the news.
Without hesitation, he commanded the system to begin the process.
Within moments, the Yang Runes engraved on Cain’s body began to glow faintly, their intricate patterns coming alive with golden light.
The rest of the group noticed the change but dismissed it as part of his cultivation process.
They had no idea he was harnessing the energy of a Fire Astral Supremacy Star that was held inside the dimension.
