For a brief moment, Kali honestly didn't know what to say.
This feat Cain performed in just merely twenty minutes spoke more volumes to her than anything he ever achieved before.
Realistically, Cain should be struggling far harder with trying to utilize his soul energy. With his low cultivation aptitude, he essentially had no foundation for manipulating energy within his body.
And despite actually managing to reach the first level of the Spirit Opening Realm, Kali still had immense trouble manipulating the Spirit Qi within her muscles.
However, it appears none of these troubles applies to Cain.
Granted, Kali couldn't say she precisely knows how challenging the method Cain uses. But not only did Cain cause such an intense light show that forced her to close her eyes, but he can also now instantly teleport!
Instant teleportation was a feat that she didn't even see her genius Dragons siblings achieve!
And to think, this all started because their Eldest siblings attempted to poison his drink.
Kali honestly felt incredibly mixed over that. It genuinely felt like their Eldest siblings accidentally caused a hidden side of Cain to be unleashed into their universe.
But before Kali's thoughts could derail further, she became perturbed when seeing Cain tiredly sway his body.
"Ah! Brother!"
With speeds far surpassing what Cain ever saw in his previous world, Kali jumped right near him and wrapped him up in her soft, warm arms.
"Are you ok? Did you use too much energy?"
Kali immediately launched into rapid questions, her priority now entirely focused on Cain's health. Above all, if Cain's health is at a call for concern, Kali could care less about cultivation or anything related to power.
Seeing how much warm care Kali has for him undoubtedly soothed Cain's fatigue body and mind. It's times like this he finds doing things with a partner trumps over being a lone wolf.
It simply felt nice to have someone care hard for him.
Focusing past these warm thoughts, Cain promptly began to analyze that previous event. Before using the Chaotic Emerald, Cain could vividly recall that he could feel out the distance he could take in a single leap.
Once he did take that teleporting leap, Cain immediately felt the Chaos Energy leave his soul energy grasp, dispersing into nothingness.
Furthermore, Cain could feel that his soul energy reserve plummeted to near depletion levels.
This near-depleted soul energy reserve nearly caused Cain to pass out. But at the same time, Cain could feel his soul energy grow rapidly stronger from this attempt.
Just like that ancient book described, because he's combining his soul energy with Chaos Energy, it's providing him incredible improvements that will only continue to passively grow from here on out.
Even now, Cain wanted to immediately practice again, feeling that he would make even better progress this time.
Pushing down his fatigue, Cain slowly nodded his head and then asked Kali, "I'm….alright. Just a little winded. Say I don't suppose you have any more pills that can deal with this fatigue?"
"Of course I do!" Kali responded without missing a single beat.
Breaking off her tight hold over Cain, Kali had then reached into her pocket, pulling out a white color healing pill.
Immediately, the pill's refreshing healing fragrance drilled into Cain's noise.
Just from inhaling the refreshing medical fragrance, Cain already felt some of his fatigue clear away. Thinking about it, Cain realized for a powerful God Class Family like theirs, having Divine Rank pills would be effortless for them.
"Open wide." Kali seriously spoke without any hint of joking in her tone.
And like he was under her control, Cain snapped his mouth, and Kali tossed the healing pill straight into his mouth.
In an instant, the pill's incredible healing energy flowed throughout Cain's body, quickly clearing away his fatigue. And deep within his body, Cain could feel his soul energy reserves rapidly replenish.
"Fuuu~."
Cain released a breath full of energy instead of weariness. His eyes lit up brightly, and he could firmly stand on his feet without any hint of dizziness.
A relieved smile crossed over Kali's face from just seeing that he only had energy fatigue.
Initially, she had a more worrying thought that Cain might've damaged himself from exerting too much soul energy, but it appears those worries were unfounded.
Although, when Kali noticed a sharp glint surfacing within Cain's eyes, she had to ask him then, "Are you good to keep going, Cain? I mean, you could take a rest if you want. I don't want you to collapse or anything."
"No, I'm good." Cain promptly shook his head.
His expression was determined as he felt his soul energy rapidly improve with each second passing. There was no way he's going to let this opportunity pass up.
Then, at that moment, Cain gathered soul energy towards his palm and linked it with the Chaotic Emerald. This time, a slight green shimmer began to sparkle from the Emerald within just a mere second.
As Cain slowly grasped Chaos Energy, he turned back over to Kali, who watched on intently.
Before Cain became too focused on Chaos Energy, he decided to ask her Kali first, "Say, Kali, while my soul energy is great, I don't think we can simply rely on this to quickly grow stronger. What other plan did we have in mind?"
Even though Cain was splitting his focus, he had a much easier time feeling out Chaos Energy now.
He still felt that volatile sensation in his body and a high pressure against his soul energy. But he already improved so rapidly to the point where he didn't need to put his utmost concentration to just feel out Chaos Energy.
"Ah, this is a bit more complicated. You see, we've planned out a journey to quickly become stronger far away from here. In that ancient book, you said that we could use that Emerald to fix our low cultivation aptitude and do other wonderful things for us." Kali laid out their plan.
Hearing all of this caused Cain to abruptly stop gathering his soul energy. "So it can do even that? Let me check it out before I continue practicing."
With curiosity intently rising, Cain walked back over to his bed and opened the ancient book.
He quickly skimmed through the first page but didn't spot anything relating to cultivation. Since the first page was a bust, Cain flipped to the next and almost immediately found what he was looking for.
This page had several topics detailing the other abilities he can achieve at the complete mastery of the first Chaotic Layer Link.
And under one section, it was explaining the various upgrades he could perform to his energy cultivation.
By pulling Chaos Energy directly into his Qi Veins, he could either awaken the dormant power lying within or even repair a broken set of Qi Veins!
This method would make it possible for anyone to practice cultivation!
If anyone were to know of such a heaven-defying ability, it would cause significant waves even in Cain's Royal Family.
Furthermore, the book says that Chaos Energy will change one's Martial Talent upon infusing it into one's Qi Veins. But the results will vary.
For all the heaven-defying abilities this Chaotic Emerald can perform, Cain was surprised there's a random, unpredictable chance of a result. At the very least, the book did explain that all results will only be positive, but some would benefit more than others.
Putting the ancient book back down, Cain started to ponder his next moves. For their plans to even begin, Cain realized he needs to master the first Chaotic Layer Link.
Initially, this seemed like a daunting task that would take a while to achieve. But after practicing for only one time, Cain felt as if his entire being was innately adapting to using Chaos Energy.
He estimated that if he relentlessly practices, he could very well master the first Chaotic Layer Link within just hours!
Wanting to test out his hypothesis, Cain began to quickly gather his soul energy.
Once again, the Chaotic Emerald began to shimmer a slight green glow as he poured his soul energy inside it. Again, the volatile sensation and pressure wracked Cain's mind and body, but it felt even easier to manage this time.
Like last time, Cain fell into his magical concentrated trance, completely separating himself from any distractions.
Minutes began to trickle in as Cain gradually seized Chaos Energy into his soul energy.
Five minutes passed in a flash.
On the outside, Kali watched with increasing surprise as Cain rapidly improved with Chaos Energy. Already, the green glow radiating out from the Emerald got to a point where it was difficult to gaze upon.
As she watched on, Kali furrowed her eyebrows.
Hasn't it only been a short while?
Kali calculated five minutes at best went by, and yet Cain just seemed to have no limitations in improving. At this rate, she was beginning to wonder if their plan would come far sooner than she could ever have expected.
At the same time Kali was making quick rearrangements for their plan in her head, Cain reached a critical point in grasping Chaos Energy.
He could already feel that he was approaching the wall for 5% of Chaos Energy. And this time, Cain had a far calmer stance.
Only a few beads of sweat rolled down his forehead, and his body remained as still as a statue.
Then, another five minutes swept by, and at the ten minutes mark, Cain's Chaotic Emerald illuminated a blinding ending green light!
'Chi!'
Kali was once again forced to shut her eyes from the sheer intensity.
After only a second, Kali flung her eyes back open and-
"Ahh!!"
Kali cutely squealed as she nearly fell on her behind in utter shock. Standing just mere inches away from her face was a teasingly smiling Cain.
Compared to last time, Cain looked far less fatigued, appearing as if he only went for a light jog than dead tired.
Cain wasn't even focused on how much soul energy he used as he felt incredibly amused by Kali's entirely shocked face.
Before he could even tease her, Kali immediately snorted with an expression that morphed into a glaring pout.
"Don't do that!! You-wait….that was so quick!"
Right as Kali was about to but heads with Cain, she suddenly realized he teleported with such ease this time!
"Indeed it was. I can feel it, sis. It will only take me hours to master the first Chaotic Layer Link at this rate. But before I continue, I wanna know what you have in mind for our journey far away from home.." Cain said as a plethora of ideas was already forming within his mind.
