Chapter 1765 First Person
One had to remember that the beasts within Chaos Universe weren"t true Infernal Beasts, they were Embryonic Infernal Beast with hopes of one day breaking through to that next layer. The only true Infernal beasts left in the cosmos were within the Devil Quadrants, but even they paled in comparison to the height the Infernal Beasts of the past once reached…
In the eyes of those in these current times, the Celestial Beasts were still a lofty species, untouchable even after their fall to the transcendent ranks. But who then were their lifelong mortal enemies? Was it not the Infernal Beast?
Dyon didn"t need to think much to understand how Eve had accomplished this. With Eternity"s Balance, all qi in existence was bound to be in perfect equilibrium with yourself. This was the truth, the essence of Eternity"s Balance.
There was no question that her command of her const.i.tution far outweighed Dyon"s comprehension of it. Despite having stacked the const.i.tution twice over, Dyon had hardly spent any time reflecting upon it. In addition, it wasn"t his original const.i.tution… His body reacted far more favorably to his t.i.tan Diamond Body.
For the same reasons, Lionel was no match for his wife in this regard despite having her Primordial Yin.
Eve"s gaze fell upon Dyon. Her eyes were so calm that Dyon"s own couldn"t help but narrow. This expression… It was many times more fear inducing than the enraged Chenglei standing in the skies not far from her.
Even if Dyon explained he had goaded them purposely, it wouldn"t help a single thing. In the end, Eve would always want him dead.
"Tsk." Dyon shook his head. "Who"s the idiot who ranked Eternity"s Balance tenth among eleven G.o.d Const.i.tutions. I"d like to have a word for him."
Dyon"s thought had hardly finished when Eve, who had just been several kilometers away, suddenly appeared before him.
There was no warning, no piercing wind, Dyon hadn"t even seen her muscles twitch.
"[t.i.tan Emperor"s Will. First Act. Third Stage]!"
Dyon"s body instantly went through a marvelous change as his strength multiplied 80 times over.
But… It hardly mattered.
His body was sent careening, enlarging the crack Chenglei"s tail had created. Somehow, the first person to force the battlefield into silence wasn"t Dyon, but Eve.
Dyon steadily rose from the air, wiping crimson liquid from his lips. Though his blood appeared mercury within his body, much like how one"s veins appeared as a bluish green color, he still bled red.
The damage from Eve"s strike was surprising. Dyon could tell that there were secrets hidden within her fists related to comprehension rather than it being just pure power. Luckily, his battle changpao"s ability activated perfectly.
The Celestial Deer Sect"s heirloom had two main abilities. The second, Dyon had yet to use. But the first just activated. This was the ability to spread any force of contact uniformly across the battle changpao"s surface area. This significantly lowered the piercing power of any given strike.
Before, Dyon"s qi wasn"t anywhere near dense enough to activate this ability and he relied on the base defensive ability of the battle changpao. However, now, he was almost overqualified. Still, it wasn"t until the second ability was used that one would understand why a mere Spiritual grade treasure was chosen as the heirloom of such a mighty sect.
If Eve seemed surprised by how quickly Dyon shrugged off her attack, she didn"t show it. Her eyes were contradictorily seething with an eerie calm. But… It wasn"t her that attacked next.
Even if Eve could control the Infernal Qi within herself, the remaining 38 dao experts had no ability to. They had already shown inhuman restraint by waiting so long to attack, a fact that became blatantly ironic after one realized it had barely been a single second since Dyon triggered their transformation.
Chenglei completely ignored Eve and Lionel, it was as though the only person left in the world was Dyon and the only feeling remaining was his desire to tear him limb from limb.
Before the strike even landed, Dyon felt a headache coming along.
One might wonder why he would purposely make his enemies stronger. Why not defeat them in their infernal qi deficient state, then purge them of this qi?
The issue was that Dyon was aware that it was impossible for things to be so convenient. There was a 100% likelihood that their hidden strength would trigger as he was trying to subdue them. With how much they hated him, how could they allow him to win without fighting back with everything they had?
Knowing this, Dyon made the decision to force it out of them early. Under the influence of Infernal qi, not only would one be far more savage and deranged, but pain would be a distant memory while simultaneously existing beside obscene healing factors.
If Dyon tired himself out defeating them first, then triggered their infernal states, he would be forced to fight this battle in a fatigued state, something that would be peak foolishness.
However, despite knowing that this was the easier path, Dyon couldn"t help but feel irritated.
The fist of a draconic humanoid and a ticked off man collided.
Chenglei"s forearm snapped savagely, revealing the bone beneath, but he didn"t so much as flinch.
His injured arm flicked to his side, taking advantage of his quick movements to snap back into place, while his other arm launched another immediate attack.
36 dragon"s breaths pummeled down from the sky. The heat was so unbearable that weaker warriors below directly burnt to a crisp. No matter how much Dyon tried, it was impossible to protect himself and everyone behind him.
Even now, Eve was surprised once more.
A Dragon"s hybrid form was at least a 50 times multiplier within the celestial realm. However, in the dao realm, there was another ma.s.sive leap. Depending on how deep one"s comprehension of their human path reached, it wasn"t impossible for it to provide anywhere from a 100 to even 500 times increase in strength, maybe even more.
On top of this, infernal qi was yet another ma.s.sive boost in strength. So how could Chenglei so clearly lose multiple exchanges with Dyon? It was inconceivable.
"What is going on?" Eve frowned. What she didn"t know was that her confusion made Dyon even more certain of something. Whatever fist comprehension Eve had gained was what he truly had to pay attention to.
