The Chaos Dragon Prince

Chapter 288 - Enslaving A Heavenly Venerate



Nightmare Lord simply couldn't react to Chaos energy at all. He felt his Soul body get tightly wrapped as if a big python beast was trying to wring his life out of him.

Chaos energy had easily constraint the once-powerful Nightmare Lord. 

Streams of green lights coiled all around him, completely suppressing every facet of his being. 

The Chaotic Emerald violently tremble once again, pulsating like blood veins. 

A suction force discharged, causing the trapped Nightmare Lord to get slowly pulled over to Cain's Soul's Core. 

Nightmare Lord wanted to struggle, he wanted to break free, he wanted to live!

A grand Heavenly Venerate master like him still had so many unresolved dreams, aspirations, and grudges! 

"No-No!! How can I fall here! That bastard is still alive, the Sacred Martial Mansion is still thriving, and I am nowhere close to reaching the peak of Martial Arts! How can I-how can I…"

All sorts of memories flashed through the Nightmare Lord's consciousness. His Will was extremely unwilling to give up. 

However, no matter his stubbornness, it was all useless against absolute strength.

Seconds later, the Chaotic Emerald finished pulling Nightmare Lord into it. 

Within it, Nightmare Lord could fully perceive Chaos energy. And his consciousness nearly collapsed. 

His last normal thoughts were, 'This isn't Venerate essence. It is as close to True Source as possible. It's almost primordial…' 

Nightmare Lord could no longer soundly think after this.

Instantly, Nightmare Lord's Soul body became fused with Chaos energy! 

His soul didn't disperse, but rather, Chaos energy transformed it, rapidly turning it into something highly beneficial to Cain.

The process was only taking mere seconds. 

During it, Cain's Soul's Core pulsated, gushing out waves of refreshing Soul energy. 

An influx of Soul energy spread throughout Cain's entire being. 

Cain's consciousness was rapidly clearing up within seconds.

  … 

Back on the outside, Kai and Amber had severely grim expressions. Their unblinking eyes never left Cain's face for even a split moment.

They were still suppressed but weren't willing to just do nothing.

Since Nightmare Lord went inside Cain, only twenty seconds passed. 

Kali and Amber were expecting minutes or perhaps even hours to pass before something happened.

But when only a second more passed, Cain's body suddenly quivered. His eyes shook, his eyes lashes trembling as if he was having a tough time waking up. 

Slowly but surely, Cain opens his eyes.

Kali and Amber were watching in rapt anticipation as powerful suffocation hitched their throats. 

Finally, when it seemed like the girls' soul would burst with nervousness, Cain's eyes fully opened.

His pupils weren't Chaos greens, nor were they showing any faint odd colors. It was only his signature profound black eyes that carried a hint of superiority. 

"Haaah~." If Kali and Amber could move, they would have already fallen over with relief. 

Cain was curious at their reactions, expecting the girls to rush over to him. And it was then he felt a natural, instinctive sensation. 

Wordlessly, he raised the Dao Crystal Staff, sending a command with his mind to get rid of the suppression on the girls.

"Eh? I can move?" Kali and Amber simultaneously spoke. 

They stared dumbfoundedly at their hands, stretching over and over again without any problem. It was as if they were never suppressed in the first place.

Without any warning, the Heavenly energy vanished off from them! 

The girls were only shocked for a moment more before snapping their attention onto Cain like owls.

"Ah, Cain! Are you okay?" Kali and Amber rushed up to Cain as they swept their Spirit Sense over him. 

Neither of them even realized they could use their Spirit Sense now. Cain's health was a far higher priority.

Cain felt a little touch, especially at the fact that even Kali was showing a rare concern expression. 

All of his previous nerves and tensions drained right out of him, his body nearly shuddering at the relief. 

This moment left quite a profound impact on Cain. 

Truly, he never thought himself to be genuinely powerful since the scale of martial cultivation is immensely massive. 

But he really never got a full taste of disparity until now. 

It put things in perspective for Cain. Despite living two lives, his experiences most likely couldn't even match people like Huang Dai or Xun. 

He couldn't help but feel bouts of anxiety emerge within his very soul. Situations like this indeed can happen at any time. And the last thing Cain wanted to prematurely die before being able to mature.

At the same time, this experience was enlightening. 

Cain felt that if he could take some time to comprehend everything that just happened, he could broaden his horizon on this whole universe!

The greatest thing he realizes is that the Chaotic Emerald inside him indeed acts like very specific charm protection. 

At least, if it's experts with soul powers, he's safe from getting control.

Despite this, Cain genuinely didn't know how to feel. The emotions running through him were chaotically violent. 

One thing for sure is this was truly a mixed experience Cain felt he would continually look back on. 

For now, however, Cain kept his expression calm as to not worry the girls. 

He then stroked Amber's lushes hair, causing her to gain a blossoming smile, and said, "It's a bit of a long story, actually. You see…"

Cain quickly went on to explain this whole situation from the very beginning.

All throughout, the girls' expressions were warped with surprise. 

To think they had just encountered a true Heavenly Venerate master!

Moreover, they had narrowly avoided death because of Cain's willingness to sacrifice himself for them. 

Naturally, Kali and Amber believed his every word. They were suddenly transported, just like he said, after all.

Amber was direct in her appreciation, hugging her arms around Cain's neck and giving him a loving kiss. 

"Ahh~." She melded into the sweet kiss, sighing in pure bliss as her body practically melded onto Cain.

As Cain wrapped his arms around Amber, firmly pulling her into his broad chest, they looked like an artistic painting of a beautiful immortal couple. 

That is until Kali impatiently clapped her hands, saying, "Yes, yes, I greatly appreciate that Cain saved my life as well. But save this for later. I can't stop rolling my eyes. Just take out that emerald and let us see this legendary expert!" 

She simply didn't care about ruining the mood. Moreover, it always just slightly ticked her off seeing these two become so engrossed with each other. 

Cain and Amber merely smiled as Amber slightly backed away.

As she did so, Cain took one glance at the Dao Crystal Staff still in his left hand, feeling zero reasons to ever let this go. 

Opening his other palm, Cain stirred his Soul's Core. A flash of green bubbled upon his palm.

A second later, the Chaotic Emerald has made its appearance. 

"Ah. So this is the wonder jewel?" Amber curiously inspected the small green gem. It was her first time seeing it as she had no real reason to check it out previously.

"So it is. Hm? Wow! Would you look at that? There really is someone inside!" Kali practically shoved her face close to the Chaotic Emerald. 

Indeed, the small green gem hasn't made any noteworthy changes in its appearance.

It was still shaped perfectly and intricately designed that making it seem like the strongest World Spirit Master crafted it. 

But now, within the center of the Chaotic Emerald, a noticeable clump of blue lights could be seen.

The clump of blue lights formed into a human-like figure. 

Who else could it be but Nightmare Lord's soul body! 

Cain, Kali, and Amber suddenly felt very queer. 

Right before them is an expert who can wipe them and their whole Imperial Family with mere waves of his hand.

Even when discussing his past achievements, a hint of reverence was evident in everyone's tone. This was the might of a legendary Heavenly Venerate master. Their history alone holds massive weight that couldn't be disrespected.

And such a godly figure…was trapped inside Cain's Chaotic Emerald. 

Never in Cain, Amber, or Kali's wildest dream could they ever expect for this to happen.

It was almost too surreal.

Suddenly, a devious thought streaked into Kali's mind like lightning. She couldn't stop her lips from maliciously curling as she said, "Hey, since this 'Lord' is stuck in the emerald, shall we make full use of him? When we were trapped by the energy here, you raised this staff, Cain, and freed us. Yet, I didn't sense any energy coming from you. So I'm assuming that you sent some kind of command to the staff, allowing us to become free, right?"

Cain thoughtfully nodded, recalling how distinct that sensation was. "Indeed I did. Are you going to suggest some kind of enslaving method to keep him under our control?"

"Hahaha!!" Kali wildly laughs, her expression twisting into unending joy. "Exactly, I am! Sure, he may be trapped inside there, but what if he finds some way to influence you? Or worse, escape your grasp? We shouldn't underestimate even the weakest Heavenly Venerate master, much less one that is well known in history. Thankfully, I was recently studying a Dragon enslavement cultivation manual as I felt it was a bit interesting. And now, it will be perfect in your hands, Cain. Don't worry about him being a human soul; the enslavement method works all around."

"So we're really going to enslave such an expert! If this were to be known, I bet those Heavenly Great World would completely tremble." Even Amber couldn't stop her eyes from brightening up in excitement.

Cain merely thought about it for a second before similar intense flames of anticipation burned within his eyes. He firmly believed no other sane Martial Cultivator would pass up this golden opportunity.

Even the ones who have actual moral and bottom lines, Cain didn't expect any of them to reject this opportunity. 

In reality, just how could they? 

It would be like choosing to ignore a spring pool in the middle of a hot and dry oasis dessert.

That decision would simply be foolish and potentially hurtful in the long run. 

When massive opportunities and benefits are presented, it becomes the first priority for many, especially for Martial Cultivators. 

In their merciless universe, it is almost like an unspoken rule engraved into the massive population. 

Within moments, Kali passed off the Dragon enslavement manual to Cain, and he promptly comprehended it.

His eyes lit up like lightning as his Soul Sense rapidly swept through the jade scroll. 

After perceiving a small portion of the manual, Cain closed his eyes.. He promptly assimilated into a trance.
