Chapter 803: Codex of Infinite Pathways (I)
Cain was shocked to see just how much rage and hatred the creator of the Samsara Flame harbored toward the Depraved Race. However, this also made him smile.
The Depravita Race seemed to come from a plane or world that was countless times more advanced than Aether, so he was happy to see that while they were powerful, they also had very strong enemies that wanted to see them burn.
The intent did not vanish as it seemed to focus on Cain, causing a strange light to appear in the young man's eyes. It was as if someone was watching him from the other side of the flame, but the distance was so great they could only hear their voices, like two people shouting from hundreds of miles apart in a street covered by thick fog.
"Choose, young man. Do you follow the Path of the Warrior, charging alone into the most dangerous situations, rising and depending only on your power, or the Lord's Path, guiding the world and its people, using their power as yours?"
Cain's eyes widened as he heard those words. It seemed that the intent inside the Samsara Flame would help him with the Gift instead of just relying on luck. He knew this was a critical question, so he did not take it lightly and put a lot of thought into the answer.
Finally, after a minute, a sharp and decisive light appeared in Cain's eyes as he spoke.
"I follow the Lord's Path."
Although Cain liked to rely on his own strength and had always paid extreme attention to his talent and cultivation, he had increasingly come to rely on the people around him, and they did not disappoint him. Even during the fight for Silver City, when he was captured inside the Crown Prince's black hole, he would have perished if not for the dozens of powerhouses striking from the outside.
The more his warriors grew powerful and nurtured, the more benefits Cain received, and every time they proved he was doing the right thing by keeping them by his side. Of course, he would not disregard his own power but would use this opportunity to improve his warriors, who had put their faith in him and gained his trust.
The will inside the Samsara Flame remained silent for a moment before a small laugh emerged.
"Hahaha, good. I like that. Some say that your own power will never fail you, but the right people will never disappoint you."
Cain could not help but smile as he heard the approving tone in that voice. The person on the other side must be a hegemon among hegemonies, and he was glad to see someone like that would approve his path.
The next second, a massive amount of Fortune in the ceiling began to condense, and before long, a book appeared. It was small, with a size not different than an encyclopedia, yet a sense of utter awe assaulted the hearts of Cain and the First Collapsing Lightning Pillar as they watched it.
