In a slightly eager stride, Cain and Kali finally walked out of the cave. Immediately, their sights were greeted by a dark shaded forest.

Cain found it both ominous looking and different from any woods in his previous homeworld.

The trees here were tall, and he was talking massively tall. Some trees even soared high into the skies, nearly touching the clouds. While back on the ground, there were numerous odd-looking bushes holding various unique plants or fruits.

The plants and fruits simultaneously looked the exact same and different to his previous homeworld. Some had traditional designs he could identify, while others had such an odd shape that bewildered Cain’s mind.

Although, the most striking quality of this wood came in the form of the smell permeating here.

“Our first step in the Heavens Sky Planet and somehow, the smell became even worse. Though, I guess it’s to be expected.” Kali had taken a quick whiff of the air and slightly scrunched her nose.

Indeed, the stench here was foul. Cain found it similar to standing next to rotten blood that has been eroded for weeks.

However, despite their current environment being slightly off-putting, Cain didn’t have any change in expression. He was entirely calm as he then said,

“I suppose we can use this to set the tone of our journey. Now then, what direction should we go in?”

Cain was searching his eyes through the woods, trying to see if there was anything close to another being around them.

All the while, Kali quickly got over the initial foul stench before falling into her relaxed facade.

The only reason she was so affected was because she actually hadn’t smelled anything this rotten before. Born in an imperial Palace all of her life, she quite literally never had the chance to encounter the stench of blood.

And now faced with the stench of rotten blood, Kali practically got over it within a mere moment. Her mind focused more on their upcoming fight.

Kali didn’t give any deep thought in choosing a direction, simply randomly pointing one way while saying, “I will mark this place in my mind so we can come back here to finish up cultivating. For now, let’s just go this way. Hell, these woods practically looked the same anyhow.”

“Mn.” Cain wordlessly agreed.

And just in case Kali doesn’t precisely recall this spot, Cain also made it a note in his mind to track their progress from here.

Then, without any more delay, the sibling duo began trekking down the path Kali pointed to.

They both calmly walked through the dark-shaded woods, not feeling any tension or fear. Here they were, all alone on a Mortal Planet without the protection of their Royal Family.

As of now, since they have no connections or establishment, Cain and Kali were highly aware they could end up in a perilous situation without even realizing how.

This is why the sibling duo was paying extra attention to their surroundings as they walked through the woods.

Eager as they are to experience actual combat, Cain and Kali know they also need to use their brain at every step of the way.

Kali was mainly determined to not let anyone on this Mortal Planet get the drop on them. She knows that they would need to form connections around this planet in the future if they want to survive and grow powerful. And there wasn’t any way she would let themselves get taken advantage of.

On the other hand, Cain was determined to avoid any foolish or obvious cliche that can unnecessarily bog down their journey.

No matter the situation they might encounter, Cain determined to have it be set at their pace.

As Cain and Kali got wrapped up in their own thoughts, they unknowingly walked a bit deep into the woods.

With their current body constitutions, walking great distances for a lengthy amount of time was nothing to them.

At that moment, Cain and Kali were about to stop to choose another direction. Still, neither of them sensed any presence around their vicinity.

However, just as this thought struck their mind, the sounds of grass crunching immediately caught the sibling duo’s attention.

At the same time, Cain and Kali’s Soul Sense picked up on two hostile presences rapidly approaching them. The sibling duo shot their gaze to their right side as that’s where they sensed the malevolent presences are.

And right then, from over forty feet away, two massive shadowy figures dashed out of a large bush of leaves.

‘Lions!’ Cain and Kali narrowed their eyes on the approaching vicious beasts.

Even though Cain remarked it as a lion, this beast held numerous distinct differences from his previous homeworld animal. This lion beast was over fifteen feet wide and tall, casting a large shadow over Cain and Kali.

Large spiky teeth that looked like mini blades protruded out of their mouths, and their eyes were glowing an intense red hue.

If any other first-time cultivators were to face off against a vicious beast like this, it wouldn’t be strange at all if they felt fear at its terrifying appearance.

But for Cain and Kali, not only were they calm, but a maniac smile spread across their lips.

“Tier 1 beasts! Let’s get ’em, brother!”

Kali shouted with ferocious battle intent. Her excitement dripped right onto Cain like a tidal wave.

Without any words needed, Cain stimulated the Spirit Qi in his muscles and tendons. Indescribable power fueled his entire body, giving Cain a sensation like he was on top of the world.

Then, when the vicious lion beast reached around thirty feet from them, Cain sprang right towards the left side lion.

‘Hua!’

A massive gust of wind swirled around the area as Cain shot off like a speeding missile!

Cain’s speed was immense, reaching the vicious beast in just a mere second! In only a second, he crossed thirty feet of distance with a single leap.

And amazingly enough, Cain wasn’t disorientated at all. Instead, he was in complete control of his insane movement speed despite this being literally the first time he performed anything like this.

It’s almost like he was born for this. Everything felt so natural and smooth as if he had done this hundreds of times before.

And at the very moment, Cain reached his lion, he didn’t hesitate. He sent a clean, powerful fist straight at the beast’s enormous head.

The enormous vicious lion beast couldn’t react at all to Cain’s insane speed.

By the time its mind started to register what was going on, Cain’s fist already crashed onto its colossal head, causing a sickening impact to sound out.

‘Bang! Bang!’

Two horrifying sounds of skulls getting bashed open echoed out in the quiet, dark-shaded woods.

In just a single hit, Cain tore right through the vicious lion beast’s defenses like it was made of fragile glass. His densely powerful Spirit Qi simply overpower the beast’s Spirit Qi without any resistance.

The end result of their single clash was a gory mess.

It was a terrifying mess of dark red blood, brain matter, and bones in front of Cain’s feet. All that was left of the vicious beast was its overly long body.

And right next to this headless beast corpse was another headless beast corpse.

Precisely the same as Cain, Kali’s single punch imploded the lion’s large skull like it was a bloody watermelon.

“Hehe~….I guess we already have too much strength. I mean, that was a true tier 1 beast from my senses.”

Kali was sheepishly giggling while scratching the back of her head. In all honesty, she was expecting to be powerful, but not to this extent!

Even as she’s the more experienced with using Spirit Qi, Kali was nearly taken off guard by her newfound speed.

She very nearly tripped up before the vicious beast but was able to snap back her focus in a split moment. Just from this small, brief exchange, Kali felt immensely eager to discover where their new prowess lies.

Cain could practically see how excited Kali still was with that broad grin plastered on her face. And he could precisely understand how Kali felt since he, too, felt practically eager to engage in another battle.

Looking back down at the gory mess at his feet, Cain wasn’t put off by it at all. He could easily retain his calm and spoke in an even voice,

“Actually, I would be more surprised if we did struggle with weak beasts like these. After all, we have the blood of dragons running through our bodies. We naturally have a superior advantage.”

“Hmm, yea, that’s true. By the way, do you also feel that your foundation is basically rock solid already? I barely feel any imbalance with using Spirit Qi.” Kali raised another topic as her mind recalled their brief fight.

Cain nodded and begin to say, “Yep, even before fighting, my Spirit Qi is near perfectly smooth, and I can sen-”

‘RWAA!!’

Suddenly then, a mighty beastly roar interrupted Cain’s thoughts.

The ground slightly trembles as two massive beasts brazenly barrel through the woods at top speed. Cain and Kali snapped their attention to their right, and their eyes narrowed in on an exciting sight.

From over a hundred feet away, two enormous black fur bears were knocking over trees, trampling upon bushes as they barrel down towards them in a frantic charge.

And just like with the vicious lion beast, these bears were far more fearsome looking than any bear in Cain’s previous homeworld.

These two black fur bears had to be at least twenty feet! Out from their mouths were massively protruding razor-sharp teeth, and their eyes were also colored in a crimson red hue. And on random spots on their black fur were patches of either dried-up blood or fresh blood.

Admittedly, Cain could say these beasts had a more terrifying look than the vicious lions.

However, their more fearsome look only fueled his and Kali’s drive to clash with them head-on!

Cain and Kali exchanged one brief glance, both of them spouting a broad battle-hungry smile.
