Chapter 1344 World
Someone who could come close to building an Emperor G.o.d Clan in a single lifetime would most definitely have to be one akin to a Higher Existence. That meant, at a minimum, their lifespans were 1.2 million years. Some Higher Existences could live upwards of ten without seeing the end of their lifespans. Yet, they never succeeded!
Of course, it had to also be said that in ancient times, conquering universes was even more difficult that it was now. During Dyon"s second trial, the Viserion Clan that seemed to rule everything as an Emperor G.o.d Clan was nothing but a plaything in the hands of the Beast Alliance quadrants. And, those very same Beast Alliance quadrants were nothing but a joke before Dyon"s parents.
The levels of existence during that time were incomparable to what they were today. Yet, the Elvin Kingdom was the ruler of the Era that ended their reign!
The Chaos Era, The Primordial Era and finally, the Elvin Kingdom"s Golden Era. Although it might have been the shortest, it was the brightest!
A gentle smile coated the faces of Ri. She didn"t care about the treasures that lay before her, what she cared about was the fact she had finally accomplished something to help her husband. With this, the gap between Dyon and those monster factions had closed, although it was slight, this was a good first step.
Clara shook her head when she noticed Ri"s grip involuntarily strengthen on her hand. But, she too knew how Ri felt. Why had she neglected her cultivation for so many decades, diligently building up the Internet and infiltrating the Sapientia Clan? Wasn"t it to feel what Ri was feeling now?
They had toiled together for more than two years to finally reach this point, how could they not feel good?
In the back of their minds, they knew that these treasures were just a terrible foreshadowing of the struggles they would face in the future. If these were the mere remnants of a major faction, just what kind of acc.u.mulations did those rulers of this Modern Era have? However, they forgot such thoughts for now, allowing themselves to be happy.
In truth, the sister-wife duo were overthinking this. Although they were right to fear the acc.u.mulations of these major factions, they were fearing the wrong type of acc.u.mulation.
It was true that the treasures here still fell short of those factions, but it wasn"t by much. What they should truly fear were the powerful base of strength they had. Not only did these factions have far more talents and experts, much like others, they had a profound base of Ancestors to call upon when they faced true danger.
This was why Dyon was risking his life now. If he didn"t manage to rip that treasure away from the Lord Creator, accomplishing his goals would be nothing more than a pipe dream. No matter how powerful he became, what could he do to a Sect or Clan that could call upon a dozen Higher Existence Ancestors at once?...
"Alright, we"ve looked enough. Let"s start sorting everything appropriately. Then we can discuss how we can deal with the natural resources hidden in the Dark Ocean Seabed." Ri said cheerfully.

Dyon and Madeleine walked into a sea of blue flames. They immediately understood that had it not been for the improvements they made after entering this mystical world, they would have suffered under these flames. Just these blue flames alone were enough to burn anyone below the higher celestial realm to ashes in an instant.
"These flames… They contain more life essence than even my ice flames," Madeleine said in slight shock.
Dyon frowned at these words. More life essence than Ice Phoenix flames? How was that even possible? To make things more confusing, despite sharing the same color, these flames were most definitely not phoenix flames. If they were, Dyon and Madeleine would feel a bone chilling cold, not this overwhelming heat.
Suddenly, something caught Dyon"s attention. With a thought, a bland grey bow appeared in his hand.
His arm became a blur in the air. The moment he released Madeleine"s hand, it seemed an arrow had teleported onto his string. In the next instant, a blinding light tore through the sea of flames, shattering the head of a skeleton that had only just risen up.
However, despite the result, Dyon"s frown deepened. Although it was true that a common grade bow limited the strength of his strike, with the help of true weapon"s will and his saint qi, the entire skeleton should have been obliterated even if it had the strength of a middle celestial.
There were only two possibilities for why the head shattered but the body survived. Either the head was the only fragile part of this skeleton"s body, leaving the rest of it tempered to the extreme. Or, there was something about these flames that supplementing them.
When Dyon shot his arrow, the only part of the skeleton that had left the flames was its head. The rest of its body had still been buried in the sea…
Almost as though to confirm Dyon"s suspicions, the skeleton, that had fallen back into the blue flames, suddenly rose up once more, its head fully intact after sinking back into the sea.
"What the h.e.l.l is this?" Dyon questioned Red and Green.
"Even Lord Creator can"t escape death," Red said solemnly, "So, before he sealed us all in this mystical world, he made plans for reforming himself a body and ensuring that his spirit remained whole. The skeletons here are filled with not only beasts from the ground below, but also exceptionally talented cultivators who have tried to seek benefits from this world."
Dyon"s eyes contracted. He suddenly thought back to the first door of the first phase invisible castle. It had such a great reward at the end, but the consequences of entering were unimaginable for anyone who wasn"t Dyon.
The truth was that according to the Laws of this Mystical World, for a correspondingly hard trial, there must be an adequate reward. It was due to this that the Lord Creator had no choice but to place what amounted to one of his most precious treasures in that room.
One might wonder why that was, but Dyon suddenly understood it all. This wasn"t a Mystical World, it was a Legacy World! Despite there only being a one word difference between these terms, it was actually akin to heaven and earth.
