The Chaos Dragon Prince

Chapter 38 - Draconic Arts



'This is certainly interesting. From what Kali says, most Qi Seeds are just dark blue or align with one's elemental affinity. But this….nearly all gray with just a hint of green? No idea what this could mean.'

Cain carefully inspected the most he could obverse from his vague Qi Seed.

He didn't pay much attention to the size as Kali never mentioned anything critical about it. But that gray color left him with several questions.

At first, he assumed this could be chaos energy. But he immediately recalled that Chaos energy always comes out as bright green.

And while there was spots of an green light, the Qi Seed was nearly all gray.

Out of all the elements, Cain couldn't recall anything that was the color gray. And he hasn't practiced with any other affinity energy before, leaving this Qi Seed as a mystery.

Cain could only put this thought down for later. He then focused on the vague imagery of his Qi Seed.

This vague, almost phantom-like appearance was the beginning process of the Nascent Formation realm.

For this entire realm, Cain needs to fully form his Qi Seed into a completed solid image with stronger and stronger Nascent Qi.

At the first level, his Qi Seed is only at 10% of completion. And with the subsequent nine levels, his percentage completion would increase by 10% until the tenth level, the very peak of the realm.

At that moment, Cain started to wonder about sub-levels within each cultivation realm.

'So far, it seems like it's the standard set ten levels to breakthrough. At least in the mortal realms of cultivation. And we only have a three months time limit. I'm sure even if Kali and I ditch coming home, grandmother or our parents will just tear us away from here anyway. So really, we have to find a way to crazily increase our level and combat prowess.'

Cain didn't have the wildest hope in achieving high cultivation in just a short three months.

With just the resources they took from home, Cain predicted they could possibly reach the mid-ranks of the Innate Lord realm.

And while that shortcut would make it far easier to travel around, Cain knew that method was squandering their massive Martial Potential.

Even without it being explained to him, Cain already assumed adventures are the accurate way to go for strength.

His Martial Talent may be insanely high. But it can always go higher than even now. Cain even fathoms he could draw out incredible power hidden inside himself to gain more absolute edges in combat.

If he ever wants to experience a life full of freedom and luxury, he can't stay content no matter the level he achieves.

With all this in mind, Cain ultimately got rid of any slight lingering hesitations about facing the Liang Tribe head-on.

While they won't be able to take a whole, massively powerful organization on, Cain felt assured enough to tread directly through their base of operations.

The fights he experienced there would be a good stepping stone.

But before any of that could happen, Cain needed to wait for Kali's Nascent Formation breakthrough.

Despite the sibling duo both having monstrous Martial Talents, there was a fine dividing line separating them.

That dividing line grew even more as Cain merely used an hour to reach the Nascent Formation realm. While Kali was only touching upon the borders of a breakthrough.

Truly, Cain hopes this doesn't cause too many problems in the future.

It would certainly be refreshing to have a rivalry with his eager sister. But not to the point where it becomes toxic over ugly jealously or envy.

'Well, whatever happens, I'll just deal with it in a similar manner….'

For a brief moment, nostalgic memories nearly started to emergy in Cain's mind. But Cain quickly suppressed it down, focusing back on his cultivation.

Like this, Cain took the time to stabilize his great realm breakthrough.

….

Hours quickly shot by.

Cain wasn't fully aware of the time, but he assumed more than half of a day passed. During this time, he finally finished stabilizing his breakthrough to a perfect foundation.

Of course, Cain actually didn't need to take this much time. But it made for good practice for later cultivation realms.

And it was finally at this time that a tremendous change occurred within Kali.

'Hm? So she's finally breakingthrough.' Cain was pleased, sensing an overflow of Nascent Qi soar into Kali's body.

A bright white light brilliance exuded from Kali's Dragon Charm. Great waves Nascent Qi rolled out Kali like tumbling tidal raves; her prowess rapidly soared to unimaginable new heights.

Then, ten seconds later, Kali's Nascent Qi reached its breaking point.

'Bang!'

Similar to Cain, a powerful burst of Nascent Qi blasted out of Kali's body!

This incredibly pure wave of Nascent Qi signifies Kali as well reached the Nascent Formation realm.

Instead of opening her eyes to celebrate, Kali kept them close, promptly focusing on stabilizing her breakthrough.

Soon enough, another three hours flew by.

During this time, Cain couldn't help but wonder if the higher-ups in the Kong Clan were aware of their presence.

With the power they showed at the test, no doubt that Captain Liam and the higher-ups would want to see more out of him and his sister.

But throughout their entire cultivation, not a single person came close to their doors.

Cain just had to assume his Chaos energy barrier made it difficult to seek out their room specifically.

Whatever the case may be, Cain temporarily put it out of his mind for now.

At the same time then, Cain and Kali flung their eyes wide open.

Compared to just hours ago, the sibling duo's appearance changed just a slight bit. Now, their eyes was filled with Nascent Qi power, causing them to both subconsciously emit this enchanting glow.

With their breakthrough finally over, Cain and Kali felt incomparably refreshed and overwhelmingly powerful.

Kali tossed her eyes down to her fist, repeatedly clenching them, causing her joints to crack with power.

"The Nascent Formation realm, huh? Truly, a breeze for us descendants of Dragon Gods. And Cain? Let's not stop here; we'll keep this ball rolling even faster!"

A vibrant energy was waiting to be unleashed from Kali.

Her slumbering Dragon Pride surged with a burning intensity, desperately wanting to be unleashed from its shackle and show off its true might to the whole planet!

A similar sense of excitement inflated inside Cain. But he was able to retain his calm better and organize what they should focus on next.

Tracing over his spatial ring, Cain then told Kali, "Before we get too ahead of ourselves, let's began cultivating our manuals. This'll enhance our strength even more."

After saying so, Cain promptly took out the Lightning Draconic Manual from his spatial ring.

"Ah, right. Compared to reaching a new realm, this shouldn't take too long." At the same time, Kali also took out her Ice Draconic Manual.

Cain and Kali didn't waste a second, immediately unraveling their respective cultivation scrolls.

Upon Cain's Lightning Draconinc manual, there were five beautifully crafted symbols. Each symbol showcased different poses of a majestic Dragon surrounded by various states of Lightning.

These five symbols represented the five stages Cain needed to master in order to fully comprehend the Lightning Draconinc manual.

Just from staring at the Dragon symbols drawing, Cain could feel an indescribable natural aura flowing from it.

While Cain glanced over the scroll, he simultaneously praised the straightforward system this universe has for most cultivation manuals.

Once one Qi Sense reaches the required cultivation level needed, all they need to do is focus their Qi Sense on each cultivation symbol.

One of Qi Sense's incredible abilities is being able to permanently retain any kind of information.

For example, when comprehending cultivation manuals or Martial Skills, all information fully understood can never be lost.

Before starting this process, Cain adjusted his state of mind. He was fully aware that practicing this art would cause tremendous pain throughout all five stages of completion.

The lightning energy inside this cultivation manual isn't some ordinary lightning element.

This was imbued with the ultimate power of several great Dragon Gods who have near mastery control over the Law of Lightning!

No ordinary Nascent Formation cultivator would ever dare to comprehend this manual. Even with the tremendous power that comes with it, that would mean nothing if they couldn't keep their lives.

Cain, however, was fully confident in his ability to resist this Lightning Energy. To his Dragon Body and chaos energy running in his Qi Veins, he knows this is more than enough.

Taking one last breath, Cain finally poured his Qi Sense into the first Lightning Dragon symbol.

Immediately, an overwhelming influx of powerful Lightning Energy burst within Cain's body!

In a single instant, every inch of Cain's body was engulfed by Draconic Lightning.

"Nng!" Cain couldn't even resist leaking out a groan of pain.

This pain was truly something else. It was even worse than the time he first used the Ancient ritual to cross over into this universe.

Cain felt like his whole body was getting brutally submerged into molten lava, attempting to burn him to ashes.

Against this immense pain, Cain fiercely gritted his teeth.

This stage is the most critical step in the Lightning Draconic Art. If he couldn't resist this, then he'll never be able to use Draconic Lightning.

Mustering up all of willpower and determination, Cain forcefully suppressed the pain. He controlled his mind to become calm, blocking out any and all distracting thoughts.

Beads of cold sweat poured down Cain's face, but he didn't stop for even a second.

Then, slowly but surely, Cain focused on perceiving the powerful Draconic Lightning energy wreaking utter havoc inside his body.
