Chapter 769: Ascension Stage
As the Collapsing Lightning Duke's foundation and abilities to perceive cosmic forces increased, so did the attunement of his instincts to danger, and right now, he felt immense danger coming from the Silver City.
Although the Collapsing Lightning Duke knew Cain was incredibly powerful, and his mastery over the Law of Space made it nearly impossible for someone to bind him to a single place, his instincts still screamed whenever he focused on the Silver City.
Cain stared into the Collapsing Lightning Duke's eyes and could see their worry but shook his head before sighing.
"It is not so simple. Even if my Ego Wave had already risen to the Third Realm and could sunder my soul in two, I would not be able to evolve since I have yet to reach the peak of the Apotheosis Realm."
The Collapsing Lightning Duke and the First Collapsing Lightning Pillar grew confused as they heard Cain's words.
"My King, you have already completed the Four Tribulations and the Two Calamities, and yours were flawless and able to draw the world's true power. Your cultivation base should already be reaching into the Divine Ascension Realm."
Cain once again shook his head, looking up, his gaze piercing beyond the [Samsara Arsenal Module]'s First Layer and gazing into the sky of Aether.
"I had suspicions after completing my Bone Calamity, but it became clear once I survived the Fire Tribulation. There are more than Four Tribulations and Two Calamities in the Apotheosis Realm."
Shock and awe appeared in the eyes of the Collapsing Lightning Duke and the First Collapsing Lightning Pillar as they heard those words. The Four Tribulations and Two Calamities were an unbreakable truth of Aether's cultivation civilization, yet it turned out there were more!
It was not hard for the duo to figure out why they were kept a secret. To unlock those Hidden Tribulations and Calamities, one needed to undergo the True Four Tribulations and Two Calamities, not the fake ones everybody before Cain considered to be real.
