Chapter 1711: The plan is ready
“Great. It doesn’t require mastery over any new Laws—just advanced energy control.”
A wide smile spread across Cain’s face as he absorbed that critical detail from the Blood Burst technique. The last thing he wanted was to go hunting for cultivators skilled in the Law of Blood or the Law of Emptiness. That would’ve been a frustrating and time-consuming detour and could risk blowing up his cover.
“In essence,” Cain thought, “the technique consumes a portion of my life force and blood, transforming me into an untraceable beam of blood-light capable of outrunning even an Archdeity. Perfect.”
For most cultivators, such a cost would be deemed reckless. Burning one’s life force for a burst of speed wasn’t worth it—weakening them for decades or even centuries and risking permanent injury or cultivation deviation. But Cain was different.
For him, the act of burning life force in battle was routine. Thanks to the protective buffer of his Royal Rebirth Mark, there were no permanent consequences unless he pushed far beyond his current limits.
“And that boundary is only going to grow stronger once the Ouroboros System is fully implemented.”
A cold, calculating smile played across Cain’s lips. Still, he forced himself back to focus. He sat cross-legged, closed his eyes, and began to meditate, internalizing the Blood Burst technique. He could not afford even a moment of failure with this ability. His life will depend on its flawless execution.
Despite the aid of the Soul Enlightenment Mist, it took Cain nearly a week to fully master the technique. But once he did, the transformation was profound. He exhaled slowly, centered his mind, and focused on a distant point. Then, without hesitation, he activated the Blood Burst.
In less than a fraction of a nanosecond, Cain’s body erupted into a crimson flash. A streak of red light tore through the air, traveling countless kilometers in an instant before reforming into his human shape. As he stabilized, Cain let out a sharp breath, feeling the toll on his energy reserves.
