The Epic Tale of Chaos vs Order

Chapter 502 Crimson Void Cultivation Technique

Lord Zanginis spoke in a friendly manner as he smiled, but he saw that Cainʼs eyes were still vigilant.

”Brat, our clan has always helped honorable warriors without reservation. We are indeed binding you from a certain point, but only through friendship and gratitude, nothing more.

The seven wives and fourteen children turned toward Cain with smiles, and there was no trace of deception in their faces.

Cain was momentarily at a loss for words and couldnʼt help but be amazed at the level of this scheme. It was direct, and unless you were a complete bastard who would betray those who helped you, it would work. He indeed felt at a loss since, as someone who liked to repay all his debts, he would certainly not forget this help.

”I see, then I can only say I will remember this grace.”

”Thatʼs more like it.”

Lord Zanginis smiled as he stood from his chair and looked at the rest of his family.

”The dinner is over. All of you return to your training or whatever you were doing.”

Everybody was already used to the easygoing attitude of the family Patriarch, so they all stood up from their chairs and, after saying goodbye, left the room, except for Desmond and Kouto. The duo was interested in seeing what kind of technique Cain would choose and wanted to tag along.

Cain didnʼt mind, so he just nodded to the duo, and the trio followed Lord Zanginis out of the castle. They calmly headed to a large black building embedded into the base of the Blood Volcano.

Many members of the Zanginis Clan were in the area, but they all moved away as they saw Lord Zanginis bowing to the man. However, they also couldnʼt help but focus on the young Godslayer Human following him, who could walk side by side with his sons.

Cain was already used to being the center of attention, so he ignored those gazes and observed the surroundings. As soon as he entered the massive black building, he noticed several shelves with rows and rows of starry gems of all types and plaques describing the names of the techniques.

There was a force that stopped him from sending out his Ego Wave. Cain didnʼt think too much of it, understanding that such measures were necessary to protect the contents of those starry gems.

Lord Zanginis did not stop walking as he headed to the rear of the building. It didnʼt take long for them to reach a massive gate, one that the rest of the Zanginis Clan members did not dare to get close to, but the man just waved his hand, and the next second, it opened up.

Cain followed Lord Zanginis into the room, and once they were inside, the door behind them immediately closed. As soon as that happened, the restrictive force hindering his Ego Wave faded, which confused him.

Since this place clearly held the strongest techniques, it would make sense that it was the most protected one, yet that did not seem to be the case.

”Anyone who has the right to enter this place has earned my trust, and there is no need to be vigilant around them.”

Lord Zanginis noticed the confusion in Cainʼs eyes, so he dispelled the young manʼs doubts.

Cain nodded as that explanation matched the nature of the man in front of him. When there was someone Lord Zanginis wished to help, he would trust them and treat them like family.

After clasping his hand to the old man, Cain began to look around the room and saw fifteen pillars, each topped with a starry gem.

”These are the most powerful techniques of the Zanginis Clan, capable of cultivating into the Divine Ascension Realm. Look around and tell me what interests you.”

Lord Zanginis uttered those words and remained silent, as did Kouto and Desmond. None of them wanted to influence Cainʼs decision, as this was something that could define his cultivation path for a long time.

Cain nodded to the Patriarch of the Zanginis Clan and began to examine the starry gems. He saw several Saint Cultivation Techniques of the Astral Path of Power, but they followed the Warlock System, so they would not help him much. Besides, he was supposed to have his Astral Rebirth Heart crippled, so he paid proper attention to those of the Essence Evolution Path.

The Saint Cultivation Techniques of the Essence Evolution Path of Power followed the Inner Universe System, which was the same for the Godslayer Humankind and Deus Behemoth Race.

All the techniques had extraordinary abilities, with some capable of generating gargantuan beasts capable of leveling cities with a single wave of their claws. However, Cainʼs eyes sharpened as he gazed upon the last one.

”Crimson Void Cultivation Technique.”

Cain was immediately attracted to the technique as he saw it was a Saint Cultivation Technique that could be used at close range, something that most Essence Evolution Cultivators would only do in a desperate situation. However, it was a feat he could fully exploit since it would allow him to use the full power of his body and Astral Rebirth Path of Power.

The cultivation technique focused on the power of the Law of Blood but also required domain over the Law of Space. Although it would have been better if it focused on the Law of Darkness, there was not really a problem since he was already getting used to the idea that his Lineage would soon change.

Taking a moment, Cain closed his eyes. He sent his Ego Wave into the starry gem, and the next second, he was transported into an illusion featuring a stoic middle-aged man with a thin yet muscular body covered in bloody scales.

The middle-aged man assumed a meditative position in the sky as suddenly, the space around his body grew denser and denser, exponentially increasing the gravity and pressure around him. Nowhere was this effect more potent than in his Evolution Core.
