Chapter 528: The Soul King
As Cain’s soul was full of joy at his newfound power, allowing his life force to evolve even higher and gaining over one thousand years of longevity, a person within the Sacred Home of another of the Ten Great Bloodlines was practically spouting blood and cursing his name.
"Damn human insect!"
An old man with a decrepit appearance shouted as rage and anger overwhelmed his heart. His eyes were sunken, and a powerful death aura soaked his body, making it clear just how weak his life force was.
Despite his weakened state, the old man still possessed tremendous power and energy in his body since he was a Peak Apotheosis Master, and the Kraken Bloodline ran through his veins.
This man’s name was Norkuo, Natuo’s father and High Elder of the Kraken Clan. The old man could not suppress the rage as he remembered receiving the news that his bastard son, who was supposed to return home, had been slain by a human.
When he found out, Norkuo’s first impulse was to find the human and break every bone in his body before crushing his brain, but he immediately discarded that idea. If that person could kill Natuo, who was stronger than him, what could an old man with a foot in the grave do?
Of course, not being able to fight Cain directly didn’t mean Norkuo would give up, and using the influence he amassed over thousands of years, he obtained the help of a Divine Ascension Master.
Norkuo expected that Marcellus’ power would be enough to seal Cain’s fate. Yet, not only did the human survive, but the old Deus Behemoth heard there would be a ceremony in the Godslayer Human’s honor as this one would become the Foster Son of the Patriarch of the Solis Clan and gain the title of Sun Avatar.
"Lord Norkuo, you should not get so angry. At your age, distress and anger will only put you one step closer to the grave."
Norkuo’s eyes narrowed as he heard those words that seemed to carry concern yet hid malicious mockery. The fact that someone managed to intrude into his cultivation room located at the core of the Kraken Clan Sacred Home was shocking, but the old man knew that very few things could stop this person.
