Chapter 1599: Triggering a continent cataclysm
Cain calmly gazed at the Gu cultivators gathered before him, then raised his hand and unleashed the power of his Ego Wave. Immediately, heart-wrenching screams of pain erupted from the Divine Transcendence Masters. Their agony was intense, nearly unbearable, but oddly enough, within their anguished cries, a faint trace of relief and exhilaration could be discerned.
They felt a powerful yet ethereal force grasp onto their Gu Insects, violently pulling the monstrous parasites from their bodies. While the removal process tore through their flesh and spiritual channels, causing deep and painful wounds, these injuries were a small price to pay compared to being freed from the ticking time bombs within their bodies.
With one final surge, every single Gu Insect was torn away from the cultivators’ forearms. The countless insects, monstrous and overflowing with sinister energy, surged toward Cain like iron filings drawn inexorably to a magnet.
Under the astonished gaze of every Gu cultivator present, Cain opened his mouth wide, unleashing a devouring force that instantly consumed thousands of these dreadful insects in a single moment. As the horrifying swarm disappeared into his body, his Ego Wave began to radiate with even greater intensity.
A faint but unmistakable smile appeared on Cain’s face as he absorbed this tremendous influx of energy. Now that he had broken through and achieved Mind and Body as One, he had grown powerful enough to not only control but directly devour these insectoid Third Realm phenomena, no longer relying on external power to kill them. His newfound power was exhilarating, but his smile did not linger long.
The next instant, Cain extended his hand again, swiftly grabbing hold of another figure amidst the stunned cultivators. This time, the person who fell under his grasp was none other than Lady Azure. The old Anima’s face contorted in absolute horror as she stared into Cain’s cold eyes. Her body trembled uncontrollably, and desperation filled her voice as she attempted to plead.
“Have mer—”
Her words were abruptly cut short as scarlet tendrils surged from Cain’s hand, rapidly encasing Lady Azure’s entire body in a crimson cocoon. The scarlet energy invaded her flesh and soul, sealing her so thoroughly that she could neither move nor even think.
As he observed the imprisoned figure, coldness and disdain appeared plainly on Cain’s face. With a dismissive gesture, he sent the cocoon into his Soul Dimension.
