Teleportation after teleportation, flash after flash, Cain, and Amber made great time approaching the Lake of Stars.
Any Vicious Dao beast wasn't able to track them down. And the duo opted to ignore other wandering cultivator groups.
These people's cultivation couldn't even match up to the late ranks of the Zhou family battle arena. Even as Cain was eager to test his might, these people would only be a waste of time.
Like this duo, had a leisurely time moving forward.
But when the duo crossed over dozens of miles, Cain suddenly stopped. Amber was confused but stayed silent when seeing the pondered expression twisting Cain's face.
At this moment, something truly felt peculiar. Throughout this entire travel, Cain did detect others, but everyone else wasn't on their specific path. None clearly knew about the Lake of Stars.
Yet at this moment, a group slowly flying above him was actually heading in their general direction!
Of course, this group had great uncertainty in their actions and most likely won't properly reach the Lake of Stars at all.
But Cain couldn't let this oddity go. After being made acutely aware of Wen Shao's plots, Cain held great suspicions about anything seemingly unordinary. He rather be overly cautious than put into a dangerous position.
Cain didn't have to worry about the group noticing him, so he extended his Chaos sense out, listening in on their conversation.
A young man was currently speaking. "If those sources are right...shouldn't this so-called Lake of Stars be around here? Or maybe it's a little bit further? Damnit! This map really isn't all that useful."
"Just be calm, will you? We're just lucky enough to get our hand on this news. Imagine if this was let out to the general public? Might as well kiss our chances for treasure goodbye. It makes sense we have to be thorough in our search." A woman in the group calmly spoke up.
"Still, I can't help but wonder how this news came about and why come now? Seems strange, considering most top powers are so secretive. Though, much stranger things are happening within our city..."
Cain listened for a few minutes longer but didn't receive any more valuable news. He then looked over at Amber and spoke in a sound transmission.
'Something a bit interesting. Seems like some people managed to get their hands on the general area of the Lake of Stars.'
Amber furrowed her brows, instantly drawing suspicion. 'Think it's Wen Shao doing? With his resources, it's reasonable to think he already knows about this place.'
'Well, I'm not entirely sure if this is Wen Shao's specific doing. He does have many subordinates under him. And these people above us are nothing to write home about. Some even have a low-tier Divine Aura foundation. But of course, them simply knowing about the Lake of Stars is suspicious in of itself.' Cain fell into thought.
The people above him are merely around Extreme Great Divine Sea to the Early Stage Divine Star realm. For the current him and Amber, foes like these are nothing.
But at the same time, suppressing a group like this will cause too much of an attraction. At the very least, Cain wanted to be near the Lake of Stars for any fight to keep it contained.
Thus, Cain shook his head while shrugging. 'It's good to keep this in mind, but let's keep going. If there is a group at the Lake of Stars, we will simply strike depending where they came from.'
Amber seriously nodded, and the duo continued on their journey through teleportation.
After a few more hours of traveling, the duo neared only a couple of miles from the Lake of Stars.
The trees were at their thickest in this area, a faint fog permeated the area and the bushes seemed to spring with vibrant life.
No Dao Vicious beast could be sensed over here. But there was one singular group of cultivators that finally managed to catch Cain's attention once again.
In fact, this group was even better than the last and would stand out anywhere in the wild plains.
For as they were all Divine Star experts! With one of them actually being in the Middle Stages. Furthermore, none of them had sloppy foundations. Each of them had quite the dense Divine Aura.

The cherry on top was the fact that these three wore Cloud Sea Holy Land signature disciple unfiorms.
Recalling Peng Fu's words once again, it was evidently obvious where this group came from.

Cain and Amber didn't have any fear as they flashed close to the Divine Star expert group. They only stopped when they were several hundred feet behind.
Unnoticed and undetected, the duo flickered into a large bush to cover themselves.
Looking out, they took a clear time to analyze this trio. Three young, friendly looking youths entered the duo's enhanced vision.
Two of them were young men and only one was a woman. Each of them had some degree of seriousness in how they carried themselves. None of them would be caught off guard if they needed to battle. But overall, their stances appeared more relaxed.
They appeared to have everything under control as if nothing around the Lake of Stars can ever hope to threaten. It was a bit arrogant, but this group had some qualifications to feel more confident than the average group.
Cain was honestly a bit impressed with them. The two Early Stage experts' dense Divine Aura surpasses that of what most mid-tier prowess can exude. While not high-tier, they certainly wouldn't lose out to any other mid-tier expert.
While the Middle Stage Divine Star expert had a Divine Aura of clear high-tier status. His presence slightly overshadowed his partners. It alone could scare off even a weak Divine Star Dao Vicious beast.
'A Middle Stage Divine Star warrior! So that Wen Shao really wants us dead or just coincidence? Not banking on the latter, this is too nice of a crew to just causally bring out. Either way, this will be fun...'
Cain couldn't stop his lips from curling into a devious grin as he transmitted to Amber.
The same amount of eagerness wasn't apparent on Amber's face. Her face more so warped into genuine curiosity. 'Middle Stage, huh? Is that really so much of a difference? I do recall Senior Wei mentioning that the chasm of minor boundaries increases with each proceeding realm.'
'That's right. In fact, grandmother had said it starts to become extremely apparent in the Divine Star realm. The more power one can draw from their Dao Source Core, the wider the chasm grows. Those Dao Source Cores are all great portions of a Heavenly Great Dao itself. It's not surprising the power differences become massively wide. And it's no wonder why geniuses like us are so highly valued.' Cain patiently explained.
Afterward, he spread his Chaos Sense and said, 'Alright, let me hear what they're saying before quickly end this.'
At this moment, the trio had stopped moving, simply looking around their surrounding area with a casual gaze.
Cain heard the man in the middle speak first.
"Hopefully, Senior brothers don't take too long. It really shouldn't be too hard to track Divine Origins down, no matter their combat prowess."
"Speaking off-" The other man spoke up. "Brother Yan, don't you think this is too much just for them? I get it to not underestimate Emperor-tier geniuses. But three Divine Stars who have a Middle Stage in their squad? I mean, us together, even a Late-Stage, would have trouble killing us. Even though Lee and Xun could match half-step or possibly a weak Early Stage Divine Star, they can't hope to match our combination."
Brother Yan or Zi Yan didn't speak, casting a blank gaze at Shi Cai. After a moment, he turned over to the only woman, asking, "What do you think, sister Mei? Is this going too far?"
Xie Mei crossed her arms under her ample bosoms. Thoughts fluttered through her mind, causing her to sigh and shake her head.
"I can understand brother Cai's feelings. But...perhaps a squad like us really is required for great geniuses. I know you two may not think about it a lot, but I do believe a destiny of a genius has some merits. At least, geniuses with seemingly limitless potential are incredibly hard to kill. Just look at Lord Wen Shao or Lord Wen Dao. They have multiple stories to live and tell about facing extreme dangers. Even with their backings, their lives were at stake more than once. Yet, every time, both Lords come back only stronger. Snuffing a genius out really does need overwhelming force. Because if we fail...well, our roads will end very miserably."
The word destiny buzzed in both Shi Cai and Zi Yan's minds. Their reactions were slightly mixed.
Zi Yan furrowed his brows while Shi Cai visibly scrunched up his face. Something like destiny only seemed like an elusive concept for them and many other geniuses on their levels.
In fact, across the God Galaxies, not many can truly understand the concept of destiny.
What Xie Mei explained is the most common explanation concerning the destiny.
Whether it was true or not, nobody could say for sure. But at least, it got Zi Yan and begrudgingly Shi Cai to take this mission with more focus.
Zi Yan shrugged and said, "Alright, alright. Let's focus up. When we see either one of those two, don't get conceited and strike them with our full power."
