Zamuel and Lore looked at each other as they heard Norton's words. The Gravitas Clan was extrely powerful and considered at the zenith of the Ten Great Bloodlines.
Overall, the Gravitas Clan was actually even stronger than the Vulcano Clan. Unfortunately for them, the Vulcano Clan gave birth to a monster nad Eon, whose overwhelming individual power was unmatched by anyone in the Deus Behemoth Empire, which was why they were not able to secure the position of the Imperial Family.
Of course, even if they were not the Imperial Family, being on good terms with the Gravitas Clan was wise, especially since the Fenrir Clan was accused of robbery. Sharing their knowledge and helping find a thief would help right a wrong.
However, Zamuel and Lore were not naive. They couldn't simply believe Norton's words. Who's to say it wasn't the Gravitas Clan playing the thief, chasing a mber of the Fenrir Clan to steal from them?
If they were to help the Gravitas Clan, they would be accessories to theft and would gain nothing for it other than the animosity of the Fenrir Clan.
"Sorry, but the mbers of the Fenrir Clan are adept at hiding their tracks using the Law of Space. We have no idea where they went," Zamuel said without hesitation. He didn't want to be part of whatever drama was unfolding between the Fenrir and Gravitas Clans, and his statent was true since he had only managed to perceive a presence and could not pinpoint the exact whereabouts.
Norton's eyes narrowed as he focused on Zamuel and the rest of the Solis and Zanginis Clans for a few seconds before softly nodding, believing their words. However, before Norton led his group away, another mber of the Gravitas Clan stepped forward and focused on Cain.
"You are a master of the Law of Space, so surely you must have so insights regarding the whereabouts of the Fenrir Clan warriors. I am sure you want to do the right thing and help us."
Cain assessed the mber of the Gravitas Clan who spoke to him. Like his fellow warriors, the man had a massive body with fin-like wings on his back, and he emanated a remarkable gravitational power.
'He is Urik. He might not be the strongest of the Gravitas Clan's younger generation. Still, he is extrely wise and cunning, so don't underestimate him, Sun Avatar,' Zamuel's voice echoed in Cain's mind, revealing the identity of the Gravitas Clan man that pushed the spotlight on him.

Urik's statent directed the entire group's focus onto Cain, their stares laden with the gravitational power of their bloodlines.
Most would feel imnse pressure under such scrutiny, but Cain maintained complete control over his emotions. Even if he wasn't a Master of Order, the gaze of a group of Apotheosis Masters couldn't shake him. After all, he had faced True Titans and severed the arms of Divine Ascension Masters, so how could the group from the Gravitas Clan affect his mind?
"Well, do you know anything about it?" Norton asked, surprised by Cain's calm deanor.
"I know, but I see no reason to share that knowledge. Whether the Fenrir Clan mber stole from you or you want to steal from them, it doesn't matter to . I will not get involved in your problems," Cain responded directly.
As expected, the Gravitas Clan didn't take well to his reply, and a coldness appeared in their eyes.
"Are you sure about your answer?" Norton's voice was eerily cold, his eyes flashing with fighting intent. Despite the nurical disadvantage, he showed no fear and seed ready to fight Cain and anyone who dared to stand in his way.
Norton's behavior could be considered overbearing, but Cain's reaction was even more tyrannical. Barely after Norton finished speaking, he moved forward at shocking speed, Slaughter in hand, stunning everyone.
"Was that a threat? Because for , there is only one answer to a threat."
Norton's eyes widened as he saw the Godslayer Human standing before him. Even though Cain's head only reached his shoulder, he felt as if he were facing a giant, with no doubt in his mind that the Godsalyer Human was ready to attack with lethal intent.
"I asked you a question."
An eerie silence followed Cain's words. His eyes began to glow with a red light, a sundering force erging from him, ready to explode with the power of the Sundering Concept.
'How is this possible? I am an Astral Rebirth Cultivator, and he's an Essence Evolution Cultivator. This short distance is perfect for . Yet, my instincts are screaming to put space between us.'
Norton clenched his fists. Even though Slaughter hadn't moved, he felt its edge at his neck and doubted he could withstand its attack without sustaining devastating injuries.
Norton's personal power and background usually justified his arrogance, but now he felt cornered. His pride urged him to attack Cain for his overbearing attitude, but his instincts advised otherwise.
In the end, Norton's instincts prevailed. He took a step back and gave Cain one final glance before moving away, promptly followed by the rest of the Gravitas Clan.
As the Gravitas Clan departed, the warriors from the Solis and Zanginis Clans breathed a sigh of relief. The situation had been imnsely tense, and despite their nurical advantage, they didn't want to fight such a powerful group.
So looked at Cain with awe for his attitude, while others thought he was too overbearing, preferring the more relaxed approach of Zamuel and Lore. Of course, no one dared to reprimand the Godslayer Human.
Cain didn't oppress people out of pride or fun, but that didn't an he would let others walk over him. It was better to crush those who thought they could walk over you, or else they might think you were afraid of them and would not stop bullying you.
Cain felt no need to explain his behavior and glanced at Lore and Zamuel as the group continued marching forward, searching for another of the Six Chambers. His eyes constantly used The Flow to detect strong energy frequencies, and a smile appeared on his face after another five hours of travel.
"There!"
Hearing Cain's words, everyone's eyes shone with anticipation and displayed grand smiles. They were utterly confident in Cain's abilities, so his pointing in a direction ant they were close to another chamber.
"Let's go!" Lore shouted, and the Solis and Zanginis Clans warriors eagerly marched towards the indicated route. It didn't take them long to encounter monsters resembling beasts made of coagulated blood and sharp bones.
Upon seeing these monsters, the warriors' eyes widened with thrill. On the other hand, Cain showed a complicated smile and sighed.
The stark contrast in their expressions related to the function of the next chamber. While it would work wonders for Zamuel, Lore, and the others, it would be less effective for Cain.
However, that didn't an Cain would slack off. Without hesitation, he brought out the nine Space Spheres and activated the Nexus Blood Domain to help the group handle the horde of Blood Monsters.
Although the Blood Monsters were powerful, with their coagulated blood being extraordinarily toxic and their ability to heal themselves by sucking blood from any wounds they inflicted, they were utterly overwheld by the combined power of Cain and the others.
After going through three of the Six Chambers, the group had beco very powerful, improving their battle power by at least 20%. Not to ntion that now Cain had reached the Law of Space's Law Fragntation, the power and range of his domain improved by at least 50%.
"¡BOOM!" "¡BOOM!" "¡BOOM!" "¡BOOM!"
Explosions echoed across the path as the warriors from the Solis Clan and Zanginis Clan wreaked havoc, destroying more and more Blood Monsters. It didn't take long for the ground to be covered in blood and broken bones.
Once the group finished with the horde of Blood Monsters, they began to sift through the broken skulls to obtain gems containing Starwyrm's Essence and Starwyrm's Blood. However, no one touched the coagulated blood. Even mbers of the Zanginis Clan, who possessed a unique affinity with the elent of blood, dared not interact with it due to its toxicity and poisonous energies.
In fact, the blood was so toxic that the mbers of both clans stayed airborne to avoid contact with it.
Cain gazed at the toxic coagulated blood on the ground and focused, using the Law of Blood to take control of it. He raised tons of it, along with the broken bones. It all disappeared before the warriors from the Solis Clan and Zanginis Clan could ask what he was doing.
Although the coagulated blood was nothing but toxins for others, the [Gluttony Module] could effortlessly handle it. The Solis Clan and Zanginis Clan mbers, having already seen the Godslayer Human devouring various toxic forces, did not dwell on it and continued flying forward.
There were many crossroads on the way to the chamber, but as before, Cain used The Flow to guide them correctly. After nearly a day of flying and facing several hordes of Blood Monsters, they finally saw it.
