Chapter 1742: Martial prowess beyond the Soul Realm
Cain’s smile stretched wide, his entire presence radiating overwhelming strength and divine confidence. Yet beneath the surface, hidden behind the golden glow in his eyes and the calm aura he exuded, exhaustion simmered. The dramatic entrance had taken its toll.
It would have been far easier to use the Demon King Castle to traverse across the ocean. But Cain had chosen a different approach. Morale was crucial. The dragons and saintesses hadn’t seen him in years, and for a moment of such magnitude, he had to appear as more than a legend—he had to become myth.
So he deployed the full might of his cultivation, flashing through the First Realm, crossing countless kilometers in days, and crashing into the landmass with the raw momentum of his journey. The impact alone was enough to shake the Bloodmar Continent to its roots.
Of course, such a feat consumed colossal amounts of energy. But energy was not something Cain lacked.
He took a deep breath, and under the stunned gaze of every vampire and werewolf in the fortress, he opened his mouth wide. The massive storm that had heralded his arrival—the very tempest that had blackened the sky—began to spiral toward him.
And then, Cain devoured it.
The sky churned violently as black clouds and purple lightning funneled downward like a cosmic whirlpool. In under three seconds, he had swallowed the entirety of the storm—and he wasn’t done. He kept going, drawing in more and more ambient energy, as if he intended to consume the very sky itself.
A wave of primal dread swept through the hearts of those watching. They felt it—the sheer, horrifying truth. This man wasn’t just strong. He held dominion over the fundamental laws of the universe that no one in the Bloodmar Continent could compare.
And they weren’t wrong.
Cain was likely the only being in the First Realm with an Oniric Truth comprehension at 50%. While that alone wasn’t enough to evolve his Black Hole to the next level, it allowed him to bend reality itself in ways that Peak Void Eclipse powerhouses would struggle to understand.
Tania and Hercule stood frozen as Cain casually absorbed every iota of energy in a radius of more than fifty thousand kilometers.
