Chapter 1887: Spread the glory and supremacy of the Scarlet Path
Seeing that everything was in order, Cain allowed Leviathan to return to his Soul Dimension before turning his attention toward Minxet and the rest of the Chief Counselors.
"Go to the Gu Sect and begin assimilation. There is more than enough space there to accommodate all of you," he instructed calmly.
The Gu Sect was vast, and after the destruction caused by the Gu World tournament and the Omega War, many lives had been lost, leaving extensive unoccupied areas. Immediately, all six Chief Counselors respectfully bowed to Cain before turning and swiftly moving with flawless coordination toward their new home. It didn’t take long for the masses to follow their lead, gradually leaving the expansive coastal area empty once more.
Soon, only the Prima Deities and the battle-hardened forces of the Scarlet Path remained behind. Cain’s powerful mind effortlessly scanned the path to the Gu Sect, ensuring everyone would be safe in transit. With matters concerning normal people arranged, it was now time to address his warriors. With a simple wave of his hand, he signaled for his soldiers to assume a perfect military formation before him.
At the forefront stood the Prima Deities, led by the Sky Sovereign, Alucard, Pation, Karter, and Lancer. Behind them were Magnus, Rylanor, the Thirteen Stars of Doomsday, and the rest who had successfully cultivated Sovereign Scarlet Leviathans within their souls. Further back stood thousands of men and women who, although not yet able to kill Peak Divine Transcendence Masters individually, were still incredibly powerful and held boundless potential, with the gates to the Third Realm open for them if they fought hard enough.
Cain’s gaze swept across each and every warrior, feeling their fiery determination as their eyes glowed with radiant scarlet flames. With another wave of his hand, he summoned the Scarlet Throne into existence. His attention shifted back toward Alucard, Pation, Karter, and Lancer as he gave them a solemn nod, opening the majestic gates of the throne.
Smiles immediately appeared on the four Prima Deities as they channeled every ounce of their energy, soul force, and psychic power into their Scarlet Leviathans. Each of these massive serpents had already reached the absolute peak of the Sovereign Rank, and now they burst forth from their masters, ascending into the Scarlet Throne itself.
Witnessing this, all the warriors of the Scarlet Path watched in awe as the Leviathans entered the throne and began devouring immense waves of psychic energy. Soon, their serpentine forms started evolving, transcending their previous forms, and transforming into massive, brilliant scarlet stars. Each star took command over a distinct section of the throne, reinforcing and stabilizing its immense power.
"BOOM!" "BOOM!" "BOOM!" "BOOM!"
Four explosive bursts echoed simultaneously, releasing overwhelming waves of psychic energy and soul force from the four Prima Deities. Each one felt their strength and talent in the Ego Eternal Path of Power rising exponentially, an exhilarating sensation that filled them with excitement and pride.
Naturally, the throne itself greatly benefited from this evolution. While these newly-formed Scarlet Stars took dominion over parts of the throne, they simultaneously enriched it by providing their insights, spiritual aura, and refined psychic essence. The throne’s foundations were strengthened immensely, allowing it to safely expand and grow without limitations. Moreover, each Prima Deity could now independently open their own gates to funnel the souls and egos of defeated foes directly into the throne, ensuring a constant influx of psychic and spiritual energy.
Excitement surged within every warrior present, yet soon their focus sharpened once again as they saw Cain’s expression turn solemn and serious. After briefly analyzing their new powers and nodding with satisfaction, Cain began to speak.
"There will be a brief period of peace. Divine Calamity is severely wounded and will not move against us until his soul recovers. Since I personally incinerated nearly a third of his soul force, even with his immense resources, it will take him several months to recover. Nevertheless, once healed, he will gather his allies and call upon every favor owed to him, seeking revenge with overwhelming force."
Tension instantly filled the hearts of the Scarlet warriors upon hearing these words. Divine Calamity was an ancient and powerful figure, wealthy beyond measure, and he undoubtedly possessed countless allies who would gladly support his cause in exchange for substantial compensation. Although Cain’s strength was extraordinary, his revolutionary vision naturally antagonized the entrenched powers ruling over the Everstrife Empyrean World.
After allowing a sense of urgency and a thirst for strength to spread among his warriors, Cain continued firmly, "In the coming months, I will execute plans granting me the power to deal decisively with any supreme powerhouse who dares invade our domain. Your responsibility is simple: grow stronger—as powerful as possible. I will handle the Archdeities myself, but you will face the rest."
Determination and unwavering resolve ignited fiercely within the hearts of every Scarlet Path cultivator present as they resolutely nodded.
Cain’s voice grew louder, echoing with unmatched authority, "Now, you will march upon the Endlesslight Continent and spread the glory and supremacy of the Scarlet Path throughout every inch of its lands."
A meaningful glint appeared in the warriors’ eyes, fully comprehending the heavy implications behind their King’s command. To spread the Scarlet Path meant eradicating wickedness, evil, and all those incapable or unwilling to adapt to the new order. It implied subjugating every organization across the continent through brutal and absolute conquest. Undeniably, it would be a tremendously bloody and ruthless endeavor, but it also represented an extraordinary opportunity. Countless souls and powerful bodies would fall into their hands, fueling their cultivation and driving their strength to unparalleled heights.
Cain offered no further words. Instead, he calmly turned to the side, clenched his fist, and punched forward into the empty sky.
"CRACK!"
The very fabric of space-time shattered spectacularly, opening a colossal vortex—a portal allowing swift passage directly to the Endlesslight Continent. Traversing such a gateway was perilous for ordinary individuals; the immense spatial fluctuations alone could tear normal bodies apart. However, for the warriors standing before Cain, this posed no threat whatsoever.
