Chapter 1816 Forgive
Though this number was still less than the amount of such experts Clans like the Sapientia would have, what was the size of their territory versus Dyon"s? And also… Could their skill ever match up to Dyon"s?
[Author"s Note: It should be noted, in case of confusion, that it was stated that no experts above Moon Lord existed within the scope of the tower quadrant, *not* the outer quadrants].
Secondly, the Array Alchemy a.s.sociation was br.i.m.m.i.n.g with talents. Under the guidance of Dyon"s clones all these years, the innate aurora geniuses of Soul Universe were finally coming into their own. A few were even on the verge of breaking out of the Grandmaster Realm and becoming Comet Lords. By the time the Ancient Battlefield descended, the foundation of the Mortal Alliance would be untouchable.
Because of this, Dyon was at ease bringing the cauldron along with him to fulfill his promise.
The Battle Cauldron was already so close to forming its own spirit. Once that happened, it too would become a Pseudo Treasure of the 33 Heavens. Dyon suspected battle might be its key to breaking through.
Interestingly enough, though, the battle cauldron wasn"t the only one of Orcus" inheritances that Dyon could finally use. There were many techniques he was br.i.m.m.i.n.g with excitement to touch upon.
[Nine Suns of Armageddon]. [Sun G.o.d Body] and its branch techniques [Sun G.o.d Halo]. [Sun G.o.d Domain]. Dyon couldn"t wait to display their power.
In truth, [Nine Suns of Armageddon] couldn"t be used unless one had comprehended a 3rd grade Fire Dao. However, hadn"t Dyon"s reached the 4th grade after his soul comprehended Star Qi?
The technique"s overbearing name spoke for itself. As a Peak Divine Grade technique that had fallen from the Mystical Grade, Dyon didn"t know if a more potent attack technique existed on the mortal plane.
As for [Sun G.o.d Body]? It directly used the strength of [Nine Suns of Armageddon] to explosively increase one"s strength. The original purpose of the latter technique was to rip Star Power from true stars, making the Golden Crow Clan invincible when near one.
However, [Sun G.o.d Halo] and [Sun G.o.d Domain] were intriguing as well. Orcus created them using [Sun G.o.d Body] as a base because his death body didn"t allow him to infuse such powerful fire into himself because fire breathed life.
The former was able to instantly infuse Star Power into any technique to explosively increase its strength. The latter infused this Star Power into one"s Domain, strengthening it as well.
There was only one shame in all of this. Though he often broke the rule, when he wasn"t in dangerous situations, Dyon promised his master to first reach the One with Self Realm in the techniques she chose for him up to the Heaven Grade.
He had already master 100 common grade fist, palm, movement, and energy manipulation techniques, not to mention 900 weapons techniques.
After his comprehension skyrocketed, he cruised through comprehending 100 and 900 of the same earth grade category techniques even though his master only expected him to do 20 of each.
Then, he used the Soul Tome to comprehend 100 and 900 of the same category heaven grade techniques to their peak levels…. This experience made him realize just how deep the legacy of the Celestial Deer Sect was.
"Ah, forget it, Master will forgive me if I have a little fun, right?" Dyon grinned.
...
Dyon had comprehended so many Earth Grade techniques so quickly obviously in thanks to the Soul Tome. Though it was harder to reach the One with Self Realm after relying on it to perfect your comprehension, Dyon found the barrier to still be incredibly thin.
As a result, in just a single month, Dyon breached the One with Self Realm in all 1300 techniques. Or rather, his clone did. He was too busy with his vacation to bother. It likely would have been faster if he acted personally.
He repeated the process with Heaven Grade techniques directly afterward. Though he felt the barrier was a few times thicker, he didn"t feel it was impossible. He had already felt some inspiration for a few.
By his calculations, a decade or so would be enough to reach the One with Self Realm in them all. Unless his soul reached a higher realm, then the time would likely be cut down once more.
Dyon felt that this wasn"t only because of his own talent, but because the Soul Tome grew stronger as he did, allowing its owner to be less restricted.
The stronger he grew, the stronger the treasures of 33 heavens also seemed to grow. But this reality made sense. These were treasures that even Transcendents drooled over, who knew how many wars the Immortal Plane had fought over them? If this was the limit of their strength, it would be too disappointing.
In all likelihood, these treasures would only show their true strength when supplied with Immortal Qi. Unfortunately, Dyon was too far from such a state.
Still, he was satisfied. Currently, his soul was at the entrance of the Star Realm and still a way from its peak. So, he had a large bit of room for improvement before he had to consider breaking another barrier of cultivation.
Dyon realized after his battle with the Ancestor Sapientia just how important techniques were. He had hardly noticed because he usually crushed everyone in his generation, but he would be many times more powerful if he used techniques suitable for his cultivation realm instead of using common grade techniques all the time.
Thinking to this point, Dyon couldn"t help but sigh.
"Just why are you having me do such an insane thing, Master…? Comprehending 1300 common grade technique? For what purpose…?"
Dyon shook his head. He could only guess that Esmeralda had something grand in store for him.
Either way, no matter how great the Celestial Deer Sect was, they definitely didn"t have 1300 Divine Grade techniques. Even the whole of the Mortal Plane wouldn"t have that many. So, the Heaven Grade would be the last grade Dyon could learn such a number of.
At most, Dyon would be able to learn 3 of each category, putting him at 39. Even then, the celestial deer sect didn"t have this many. It seemed he would need to do a bit of… reconnaissance work.
If others heard how Dyon worded his clear intention to steal, their lips would twitch at his shamelessness.
