This maiden's expression was focused, her gaze taking in every inch of the maze, down to the smallest corner. Continuous frost rippled from her natural presence, inspiring cold chills to sweep down hundreds of divine cultivators' spines.
Her Divine Aura was only at the early stage of Divine Ruler, but the faint sensations of her energy principles were mysterious. As it could transcend the early stage!
Amber's lips curled into a slight smile. She causally called out, "So it seems Martial sister is having a bit of trouble with this ss of a maze?"
Lan Rui's body shook. Her lips also curled into a slight smile, though she didn't yet turn around. "I have no sha in admitting so. I can tell that Martial brother Lee had done sothing to enhance my perception. But even with his assistance, trying to discern the highest Great Dao sensation is far too difficult."
"Mn. It's not so easy for either. But, I have learned quite a lot from that nut. Follow my directions and then we'll band up to leave this place." Amber casually spoke, as if this was a simple task for her.
Any other Divine Decree Lord saying this, Lan Rui would've scoffed at such confidence. She wouldn't even believe that Yulong could achieve detecting the highest Great Dao sensations.
But Amber was a case beyond the standard of common thinking. She was second best to Cain. Which ans she was still miles ahead of everyone else and other Divine Decree Lords.
Lan Rui placed a great amount of faith in Amber. Without any hesitation, Lan Rui followed along Amber's guide, reaching a point where she stood inches apart from Amber.
Not a single trap had activated along the way.
Up close, Lan Rui wanted to speak but had suddenly taken notice of the distressed state of Amber's clothing. It was evident to anyone that she had been in a close-quarters fight.
Lan Rui asked with genuine concern filling her tone, "Martial sister? Is everything alright? I can tell your body is completely fine. But, against these traps and potential Divine Decree Lords, they can leave behind remote energy principles."
"It's fine. Don't worry about it." Amber casually waved. "I had only encountered one crazed Divine Decree Lord who had gotten far too comfortable for his own good."
"So you really were attacked by a Lord? But...just why would he do that? Doesn't he know that he risks retaliation if he were to fail?"
It wasn't an exaggeration at all to say there wasn't a single Divine Ruler that was even just slightly foolish. Their innate awareness has been greatly evolved by the principles of the universe. Every life experience was engraved in their souls, never to be forgotten.
Lan Rui knows for a fact most Divine Rulers only act with great assurance.
Amber's expression beca a bit solemn at this point. "I had no intention of waiting around to see, but I fathom that the one I fought had so sort of ans to disable my escaping talisman. He most likely wanted to use this ans to trap and kill off with a trap so no suspicion can fall on him."
Furrowing her brows further, Lan Rui asked, "Did you catch that Lord's title?"
"Apparently, he goes by the na of Lord Que. Didn't catch anymore before I decided to get the drop on him."
As Amber spoke, Lan Rui filled through her mories. Within just a mont, her eyes brightened as she said, "Ah, I have so knowledge of this person. He cos from the Lightning Valley Heaven sect. A high-tier Holy Land slightly weaker than ours. They have always been rather, how do I say it...extre in their personality. Truthfully, if Martial brother Lee wants to find trouble with him, then I doubt he'll be able to kill him, but making him suffer would be more than possible."
"I'm sure that crazed nut will. But for now..."
Amber cast a critical gaze over Lan Rui. While not as bad as her, there are noticeable signs of battle damage on her clothes as well. "Are you alright? Seems like this maze wasn't treating you all that well, either."
Lan Rui shook her head. "Nothing to be a concern of. All just minor injuries from weak traps. Truth be told, I barely made any progress since the ti we got separated. It feels like weeks have already passed, yet I had stayed in this sa area."
"Is that right? Well then, with us together, I'm sure we can finally charge out of this place before we lose it. Let's get going."
At her words, Amber took the lead between the two of them. Lan Rui followed behind without any question.
Both of these won were of the quiet and reserved type. But just as their previous et-up went smoothly, both won had problems staying quiet and making conversation with each other.
It was a serene sense of harmony that caused zero discourse to fall between them. Like this, the extrely talented young won trudge their way through the starry maze.
...
Beyond the starry maze.
The circular royal chamber.
Within the royal chamber, Cain was in the sa ditative position. He truly had a great amount of patience.
But with so much ti passing, Cain nearly began to wonder if this starry maze was about last for several months.
At the very least, with the ti to perceive the Great Dao sensation perating the atmosphere, he was able to refine his fundantals, inching closer to increasing his Quasi-grandmaster attainnt levels.
Just when Cain thought he would spend many hours ditating alone, he finally detected another life aura appearing within the royal chamber. His eyes opened and snapped to his right.
A subtle, hostile aura greeted Cain. But while it showed their intent dislike, they didn't dare to go overboard.
The level of Divine Aura Cain detected also made him go into slight contemplation.
At one of the twenty-five holes, an extre above extre Divine Decree Lord had appeared.
The Saber Law runes glistening from his luxurious robes were far too blinding, near overpowering to stare at. It could pierce eyes with just their natural presence alone.
He was on the cusps of completely surpassing the Divine Ruler. Near absolute perfection over the power Divine Ruler can grasp, above nearly all others in the sa realm.
Such an overbearing Divine Decree Lord was indeed Lord Chen, the great genius at peak Divine Ruler!
Lord Chen locked gazes with Cain for a full mont. A simring fighting spirit blazed his eyes. But looking at the grander picture, Lord Chen didn't act on his desire.
He rely snorted, stating, "It'll all be over when the starry platform finally activates."
Deep within his soul, he could barely suppress his killing intent. But at the sa ti, he was more than aware of the strength difference between him and Cain.
Even without using his Dao Origin, he absolutely knew that no other peak Divine Ruler wouldn't be able to survive, much less counter and overpower two full-power attacks from him and Lord Chao!
Even a half-step Holy King would need to treat their double attack with caution.
Thus, Lord Chen wanted to make a breakthrough on the star platform. Naturally, it wouldn't be a breakthrough into the Holy King realm. But an advancent to his Supre Divine Laws would lead to an increase in his overall strength!
'Really, I really want to see just how calm you can be when facing once this is all over.'
Lord Chen was about to ditate and maintain a state of absolute focus.
But before he could do so, Cain suddenly spoke up. His tone was completely indifferent as if this was a minor matter to a person of his stature.
"If you really think you can win after so minor advancent to your laws after the star platform, then I more than welco you and any other Divine Ruler to try."
Suprely confident. No hesitation or what could be taken as shaless boasting.
This was Cain's sharpened Divine Will. Nearly ready to be unleashed onto the God Galaxy.
Lord Chen paused, genuinely a bit taken aback. There was one fact Lord Chen couldn't deny about Cain. Which is that he is a genuine Divine Mortal! Only Divine Mortal can continue to perform feats far, far out of the realms of other top geniuses.
For a mont, Lord Chen couldn't help but wonder if there was genuine truth to Cain's confident words.
But instead of focusing on possibilities or bantering, Lord Chen chose to ignore Cain, ditating on his own abilities.
The royal chamber soon regained a serene quiet.
Ti flew by as Cain and Lord Chen practically treated each other as thin air.
Hours to a day passed.
It was finally at this ti that Cain detected another aura appearing at one of the twenty-five holes.
Cain looked over to another extre Divine Ruler genius.
The Divine Decree Lord in question was a beautiful young woman. A dazzling radiance poured out of every pore of her body.
She shined gloriously brightly, her very natural presence illuminating higher than stars in the night skies. Even her long purple hair shined a dazzling purple radiance. All eyes would be attracted to this shining star of a woman.
Topping off her appearance was the uniform of the Purple Radiance Holy Land.
