BXBX NOVEL Chapter 256 - Future Benefits
Left all alone, the previous strange atmosphere started to slowly emerge.
But Cain didn\'t want to deal with Kali\'s little amusement as he knew she would definitely provoke the Royal children.
So he took the initiative asking, "I glanced at the information mystic realms a few times now but nothing too in-depth. Just what is the Nightmare Realm?"
Also not wanting to drag things out with needles provocation, Huang Xun cut first in front of the Royal children, telling Cain, "The Nightmare Realm is a Heavenly Grade mystic realm. Here you will be able to greatly enhance your energy utilization control, Law essence control, combat instincts, and perception abilities. The best facet about this place is that you will be able to directly enhance your cultivation with zero negative effects. But that\'s only if you make it extremely far. And don\'t believe this place is simple. It is highly fraught with true dangers for even our cultivation levels."
Huang Xun paused for a moment allowing the news to sink in. After all, she and the other Royal children are at the Divine Origin Realm, a level of power thousands of times superior to any Mortal Path\'s realm.
However, none of the Royal children even saw a flash of worry glint in their eyes.
In fact, Kali eagerly grinned over the thought of danger. Amber appeared causally indifferent as per usual while Cain crossed his arms.
As if sensing their invisible questions, Cain said, "High danger but not high enough danger, I presume? If it was a danger that had a great possibility of death, I doubt the Dragon Emperor, Ancestors, or our parents will take such risks at this stage of our lives. Moreover, others Holy Lands are coming here too, right? So there must be something special about it."
"You…" Huang Xun and the other Royal children paused for a moment.
All just from one snippet, he managed to deduce this?
Huang Xun quickly shook her head and continued to say, "Yes, you are basically right. Heavenly Grade mystic realm is special as they have unique Dao Diagrams Essence continually empowering them. The Essence abilities vary from mystic realm to mystic realm. For this one, it directly suppresses our cultivation, giving everyone an equal playing field. From here, it exclusively tests our energies controls."
"So it\'s like this." Cain thoughtfully nodded. "So besides us, just how many are coming? And are there any limits in the first place?"
Huang Xun replied, "Only those under 21 can enter the realm. Even for Great Ancestor, it is impossible to forcefully penetrate inside the Nightmare Realm. Venerate Nightmare Lord\'s previous cultivation was at an unfathomable boundary, far beyond our world. As for whose going…beside you three, the results are still undecided."
Right as Huang Xun was going to speak more, she and the other Royal children\'s spatial rings suddenly ignited in a faint glow.
As the Royal children looked down at their rings, Cain\'s group clearly saw a glint twinkling within their eyes.
A moment later, Huang Xun flashed out a jade scroll, throwing it to Cain as she said, "Here, just memorize the contents in here for the realm. I and I assume the others must go."
\'Hm?\' Cain, Kali, and Amber felt a vague interest in the sudden leave. But none of them raised any questions.
Wordlessly, Huang Xun, Dai, Rulong, and Jielong all took one last deep look at Cain\'s group. Thoughts rummaged their minds as they silently left the hidden chambers.
Caressing the jade scroll, Cain briefly swept his Spirit Sense over. Flashes of information appeared in his mental psyche and gradually retained there.
By the Innate Lord realm, any Martial cultivator mental psyche would be evolved enough to nearly have a photographic memory. And even then, reading basic information doesn\'t take long at all.
Cain was suddenly pulled from his thoughts when hearing Amber speaking out.
"Say, I saw that you were about to provoke again if it wasn\'t for Cain. I don\'t really intend to meddle in, but…should you really relentlessly provoke them so much? Each of them doesn\'t seem easy to deal with." Caution slithered into Amber\'s tone.
As a Lower Realm genius, she was naturally wary of all these powerful God Galaxies geniuses. She didn\'t have any significant opinion on them but could recognize their potential danger.
Kali, however, carelessly shrugs, a cold sneer curling her lips. "What does it matter if I vent a little? What are they going to do, scheme against us? I really would like to see them try with our new status, it\'ll make things a bit interesting. Besides, when we do become their match, it\'ll be that more rewarding for me!"
"Haah~." Amber sighed, shaking her head. "Too aggressive and proud as always. Just putting it out there, we could keep them as allies. Would be much better than potential antagonistic people. People, may I add that are all formidable in their own rights."
"Those guys as allies? Heh…alright, we\'ll see in the end." Now, a mysterious smirk, in slight resemblance to Shi Wei, hung from Kali\'s lips.
Seeing this, Amber turned over to Cain, nudging him, asking, "Hey, stop being so mysteriously quiet. She usually listens to you, so?"
Picking his attention up, Cain only gave the girls a small smile. "Ah, let\'s not think too hard about this matter. It is still early to tell. For now, let\'s just get back to the room and review this information. Just from a glance, I can tell this realm will be a great opportunity for us."
…
Days peacefully passed in the Huang Dragon Imperial Palace.
For the regular members, nothing of great significance vastly changed for them. Although, some were claiming that the Royal children are acting slightly different from usual.
It was like each of them was hit with considerable, impacting news.
But nobody really knew what was going on with them; that information was tightly sealed.
At the highest imperial chamber, Huang Zilong\'s room.
Inside the imperial chamber, Hunag Zilong and Linlong had once again met up.
Compared to last time, Huang Linlong now had a genuine contemplative, serious expression. It was like she was genuinely pondering numerous vital matters that would directly impact her entire life.
As for Huang Zilong, despite the news he learned, his expression remained indifferent. His deep black eyes were calm, just like the flowing waves of the ocean.
When Huang Linglon carefully observed just strangely indifferent he was, she couldn\'t help but knit her brows.
She curiously asked, "You seem pretty adamant on thinking for a long time before. Have you thought enough about it now? By this time, those three should be heading to the Celestial Dragon Pool. Are we going to change our motives from here on out?"
An extended period of silence settled between them.
Huang Zilong merely blinked his eyes a few times, a light seemingly bubbling up within them. It was as if after all this time, the dark clouds parted to reveal a very faint stream of light.
But this faint stream of light was all that he needed.
Soon enough, a slight smile formed upon his face as he said, "Nothing will change. We will still continue on the path of maximizing our benefits. Because if I\'m being honest, those three will most certainly surpass in a short amount of time. The accumulation and perception needed for Mortalhood truly aren\'t much. Moreover, the pool\'s essence will enhance and speed up their cultivation by at least dozens of times. But you know, even with such a large, imbalance scale, you know what I still feel?"
Huang Linlong deeply gazed upon Zilong, carefully studying his subtle slight smile. Her eyes soon flashed, slight surprise emerging on her face.
"You…don\'t tell me that you still have such a grand motive on greatly surpassing all in the younger generations? You said it yourself. Those three will definitely surpass us in a short amount of time. Moreover, in the future, they will most certainly surpass most Mid and High God Realms!"
In the face of her reasonable words, Huang Zilong lightly chuckled. "Why shouldn\'t I still have a goal like this? Honestly, Linglong, surpassing the younger generation is just a stepping stone for practically all geniuses across the God Realms, including the Heavenly Great Worlds. Only when we can contend with the old monsters in all aspects, whether its combat prowess, cultivation realm, comprehension, and experience, can we truly call ourselves great geniuses. And for this, obtaining benefits from those three will be the greatest springboard we can achieve."
"Haah~. You always speak of sight loft ambitions." Huang Linlong quietly sighed before sitting up straight. "But still, do you even have a plan for this? From what I managed to gather, Kali still holds an intense dislike for all of us. Cain is largely indifferent to almost an unapproachable degree. And Amber outright has zero interest in any of us."
"As of now, I don\'t have a depth plan yet. Basically, when each of them does match our level, we will find opportune times to go on adventures with them. You should be more than aware that anything can happen on these adventures. The risks can give us ample chances for even the smallest of connections. The others siblings aren\'t worth it. But those three certainly are." Huang Zilong calmly explained.
No matter how much pride he and Linglong have engraved into their very souls, they both were more than aware of when to take step backs.
At their levels, geniuses like them would have a very tiny portion of experiencing the withers and rains of their merciless reality.
Huang Linlong seriously ponders it over before slowly nodding. "This…it could potentially work. But we must not make it obvious in the slightest. No doubt they would just distance themselves from us more if our intentions come to light. Still, even with this semi-plan, what should we do until then? Their cultivation speed would surpass us, but it will still be months or perhaps a few years until they reach our levels."
"Obviously, we can\'t afford to go slow anymore. You know, even when I lost to Liao Wu, I didn\'t feel much pressure. However, those three are all the suitable pressure we need. Experiences are a huge part of our cultivation growth, and it\'s time for us to start breaking past our limits."
A true fighting spirit ignited Huang Zilong\'s entire being. His drive to improve has never been as high as it is enough. His Martial Heart was entirely discontent with settling for less!
And towards this, Huang Linglong\'s gaze was equally determined.. Her Martial Heart blaze with fighting spirit, realizing the time for significant changes is now.
