Chapter 2434: Dominating the Blade of the End of Times
Of course, Cain would not march directly into the Dark Blood Realm.
He was powerful—extraordinarily so—but he was not delusional.
The only reason he had managed to defeat the Kings of the Aztorus and Kalous Kingdoms was because he had carefully engineered the conditions of their battle.
The duo had been grievously wounded and severely exhausted before their confrontation even began, and the boundless vitality of the Ocean of the Blood Sun had surged through Cain’s veins throughout the fight.
Had the Scarlet King faced Eonar and Lortar at their peak, the outcome would have been very different.
"At most, I could have defeated one of them, and that was with me putting my life on the line," Cain assessed calmly. "But both together would have overwhelmed me."
Without the Ocean of the Blood Sun supporting him, Cain estimated his raw strength to be near the limit of a Late-Stage Alpha–Omega Overgod. And given that his cultivation had only reached the Early Stage, that was an astonishing feat of power and talent, which resulted from his incredibly hard work in forging a Flawless Ancestor Drop.
Cain allowed himself a faint smile.
"I’m satisfied with the talent and potential of this third body," he murmured. "And the best part... is that I can grow very fast."
The smile on his lips turned cold.
Without hesitation, Cain plunged his hands into the chests of Lortar and Eonar, extracting their still-beating hearts. Flames infused with the Power of Chaos and the Flow ignited around his hands, engulfing the organs and burning away everything except the Ancestor Drops belonging to the kings.
The lifeforms of Paradise had been designed, from the moment of their creation, by the laws and rules of this universe, to devour one another in order to grow stronger. Nowhere was this more evident than among the Blutlinie Race, who could consume their own kind to purify and strengthen their lineage.
