Chapter 685: Back to the Zafiro Sector (II)
Although they could see it with their own eyes, it still shocked the group that such a majestic and gory tribulation was Cain's Bone Calamity.
Over half of those present followed the Astral Rebirth Path of Power, and they very clearly remembered the Bone Calamity and how every bone in their bodies shattered to pieces. It was an excruciating pain, but no one faced anything even remotely similar to what the Scarlet King was going through.
There was no doubt in their minds that the pain Cain faced was much worse than the ones they experienced.
"Clearly, the Bone Calamity of the Scarlet King is of a much higher level than the one we faced, and the explanation is simple: his foundation allowed him to awaken a much more powerful response from the world force and the Astral Rebirth Laws."
The great generals nodded as it made sense. The stronger your foundation, the more powerful your Calamities and Tribulations would become, and no one had a mightier and more robust foundation than the Scarlet King.
"The Scarlet King is a great general and a fearless warrior who would not hesitate to face even Dark Kings, but his cultivation must take focus."
The Collapsing Lightning Duke paused at this point, his eyes growing sharp as he continued.
"The Scarlet King is the greatest genius of all Aether, capable of the impossible, achieving dual cultivation beyond the Apotheosis Realm. I dare say that securing the Scarlet King's cultivation would be worth losing the war for the north of Gaia."
Silence reigned the next second, and the eyes of the First Collapsing Lightning Pillar, Angar, and the great generals widened as the Collapsing Lightning Duke stated that the cultivation of one person was worth more than twenty Sectors and hundreds of billions of lives.
However, as the Godslayer Humankind Divine Ascension Masters contemplated those words, they slowly began to nod as they saw the reasoning behind them. By all measures, Cain was a monster capable of facing Gods without a problem and exchanging blows with True Titans, yet he was just at the first stages of the Apotheosis Realm.
If the Scarlet King became an Astral-Essence Divine Ascension Master, his battle power would reach a level none could even dream of, perhaps capable of killing True Gods with a single blow.
With that power, the Scarlet King could go through any battlefield and secure the victory of the Godslayer Humankind, to the point he could guide them into Atlas, a feat that only the First Titan was able to achieve.
Although the Scarlet King would eventually have to leave Aether after his cultivation base surpassed the Peak Divine Ascension, there would be decades or even hundreds of years before that. All their enemies would have been scorched under his flames by that point.
