Chapter 383: From energy to matter
"Wood Law Teleportation! Dammit!"
The shock of Cain’s power distracted the Azure King long enough for Krane to use his trump card, merging into one of the trees and teleporting using the vegetal life of the area.
Krane was no coward, but he understood that the only outcome of staying behind would be his death. So, he chose to flee and seek help, a wise decision that Cain would have completely supported.
Although the Azure King was annoyed, there was no fear in his eyes regarding the fact that the middle-aged man could reveal what had happened here, as if he knew that no information could escape his domain.
’It will take time to find him. First, I will kill the boy, and then I will take care of the witnesses.’
The Azure King managed to calm his mind as he charged his sword with Azure Lightning. Cain’s willpower was surprising, but even an Ego Wave at the Third Realm was insufficient to bridge the gap between their powers.
Cain’s Ego Wave was dozens of times stronger than before, but using it to enhance his Astral Wave would cause his body to explode from the excessive energy. Moreover, attacking by manipulating matter might be enough against an Apotheosis Realm Master but would not suffice against a Divine Ascension Cultivator.
"Azure Lightning Tempest!"
The Azure King summoned a storm of ethereal blue lightning bolts that struck from above, all aimed directly at Cain’s barrier.
Cain’s eyes remained empty as he seemed not to notice the barrage of azure lightning bolts. He continued to stare at the corpse in his hands as the red force field emanating from him grew stronger and stronger.
