Chapter 1373 There?
However, the matter was more complex than this. Obviously, not all celestial flames were created equal. The t.i.tle of celestial flame was similar to the t.i.tle of celestial realm cultivator. Obviously, not all celestials had the same power. So, Dyon could ignore Flames relative to the Unique Flame Rankings.
With King Level Presence, even the top 100 unique flames would have to bow to Dyon. However, the top 30 would do no such thing – they would require emperor level Presence. Finally, even Emperor Level Presence was useless against the top 10, and even Peak Emperor Level Presence had to give way to the top 3.
Currently, Dyon"s Presence was of the Peak King Level. That meant that if he had to face the rank 15 Purgatory Flames again, the abilities of the Sovereign Flame would be useless. Although Purgatory Flames are top 3 in offensive power, it is only 15th overall.
Dyon breathed out a soft breath, walking his way through the castle and back into the throne room.
By now, the third phase castle was in shambles. What once was the lofty and beautiful core of this mystical world had been shattered by Dyon"s tribulation.
In truth, none of the attacks Dyon faced were strong enough to break this castle. The material was far too st.u.r.dy. It was just that the Heavens had the ability to supersede the strength Dyon faced for a moment in order to expose Dyon to its clouds. Obviously, tribulation clouds couldn"t appeared within the castle, so it had to force Dyon out.
As things stood now, the still reddened skies above were viewable from within the tattered throne room as the roof had been torn apart.
Oddly enough, when Dyon and Madeleine appeared in the throne room, they found nothing. Other than the now empty skeleton of the Lord Creator and his supreme grade robes, there was nothing left. Well, there was the sea of blue flames, but Dyon didn"t believe it was worth all of this trouble.
Even Red and Green seemed to have died. Dyon had previously been able to sense their presence within his mind"s eye, but their life forces dissipated when Orcus breathed his final breath.
Of course, this was more understandable now. After finding out that Orcus had the Death G.o.d Body, Dyon understood that the guardians were actually just his corpse puppets. It now made perfect sense why they called him Lord Creator. As for why they had sentience, there were two possible explanations.
The first was that Orcus paid a price to maintain their minds after their deaths. This was what he had planned to do to Dyon.
The second was that he refined their corpses to such a great degree that they birthed corpse spirits. This concept was similar to item spirits. Corpses that birthed their own spirits were far more agile and intelligent in battle, not to mention far more powerful. However, it took a lot of effort to refine a corpse to this degree.
The difference between the two methods was obvious. One paid a heavy price upfront, while the second paid this price out on the back end. Both paths had their advantages and disadvantages.
"This isn"t right." Dyon said with a frown. "I"m certain that this mystical world is actually a legacy world, so where is the legacy."
Madeleine flew from Dyon"s arms, catching him slightly off guard, but when he saw her destination, he suddenly understood.
Grasping at the crown that sagged from Orcus" blackened skull, Madeleine sent her senses toward it before shaking her head in a daze. There were dozens of gems on this crown and each one was actually a vast hidden s.p.a.ce, containing innumerous resources.
Madeleine smiled, floating back to land in Dyon"s arms. "Take a look."
When Dyon"s consciousness entered one of the gems, he suddenly understood why it was that Orcus seemingly didn"t care about the resources on the ground… He had actually been acc.u.mulating them for years!
Before now, the amount of timeless and s.p.a.celess stones Dyon acc.u.mulated was only enough to cover a solar system. Also this was quite a large area, it was too small for Dyon"s needs. However, the acc.u.mulated amount here was enough for five universes! It was akin to a difference between heaven and earth.
Dyon was certain that there should have been far more. However, for some reason Dyon was unaware of, Orcus used much of it, or else how vast would trillions of years" worth of resources be? Dyon suspected that this was related to the fact that this wasn"t a true legacy world, but a hybrid of sorts. This was what allowed Orcus so many degrees of freedom. The Heavens likely helped out partially, but Orcus needed to make up for the rest.
Still, Dyon was satisfied. This much would be enough to last him for many decades until he was ready to reap the harvest of his plans.
As Dyon continued to look, he smiled at what he found, however he wasn"t over the moon. None of these things could count as Orcus" legacy… Unless…
Dyon"s eyes suddenly trained on the throne of black that sat untouched. Even with all the commotion around it, it was completely unscathed.
"Is everything not in there?" Madeleine asked, a bit confused. See had only taken a cursory glance, but even she was overwhelmed by what she saw. Aside from the timeless and s.p.a.celess stones, there were Moon Jades Dyon hadn"t been able to find – which made sense considering Orcus took a Yin path – not to mention enough body construction materials to build 20 clones of himself. The best part was that in Orcus" boredom, he had already constructed the vessels needed, meaning Dyon didn"t to waste time improving his runic vein mastery anymore, he could give his masters, the t.i.tle spirits and his clone bodies right now.
Knowing that this was Dyon"s main goal, Madeleine found it odd that he was looking for more.
"It"s not that I"m ungrateful," Dyon said jokingly, "It"s just that none of Orcus" core teachings are in this crown. From what I understand, there no way Orcus left those manuals with the Golden Crow Sect."
Madeleine nodded in agreement. All this time, the Orcus had just been using his descendants. For his goals, they were far too weak, why would he care for them? If he left his Core Teachings with them, they would have definitely been stolen away by a more powerful clan by now.
