Reaper of the Martial World

Book 10: Chapter 146: Scroll (1)

Dyon’s figure stood above the dome of red. However, what was more astounding than a random youth making a mockery of such a monumental event was the fact he had actually brought three women with him!

Instead of appearing afraid or apprehensive, each of the three were not only gorgeous, but they were completely indifferent to the situation at hand.

Even if this youth was oblivious to the tremendous harm his actions could cause him, could it really be possible that three others would also be just as ignorant as him? Just what was going on?

The elders, however, hidden deep within the Gathering’s coliseum, were frowning.

Laymen might not fully understand, but how could they not know who Dyon was? They had received multiple descriptions of the boy from that day.

But, even this wasn’t the end of their shock. The Immortal Blood Gong barrier was known to block any and everything, even a ray of sunlight would find it impossible to make its way in, which was why the surroundings had to be artificially lit after the array was laid.

Yet, not only could they very clearly see Dyon’s figure from the inside, something that should have been impossible, but they could also hear his voice as though he was speaking right beside them! How could they not be shocked by this realization?

Rose, however, seemed ignorant of these details. The only reason she knew the name of the array at all was because the elder Jade casually mentioned it in passing during their time together. Jade had spent quite some time helping Rose familiarize herself with Nephilim territory before heading to Soul Rending Peak, and this was just one of the few things she had learned.

But, Rose could have never expected that the reason her master knew the name of this array wasn’t because of her own breadth of knowledge, but rather because she had learned it from Dyon himself on the day he shattered that barrier and finally united the mortal plane!

Unfortunately, she was unaware, so seeing Dyon’s figure, she panicked.

“This idiot! Master wasted her life so that he could live yet he’s come here to throw it away so casually?!” historical

Rose flew into a rage, readying herself to interfere. She knew well that she wasn’t a match for even normal Higher Existences, let alone the true elite Higher Existences of the Nephilim and Sapientia. However, her master had still hoped she would protect Dyon while he needed it… She could feign ignorance if she was all the way across the mortal plane from him, but if she was right before him… She couldn’t in good conscience!

Dyon didn’t seem to hear the commotion below.

He curled his forefinger’s knuckle, using it to tap on the exterior shell of the array.

“Oh my, what a hard shell you all have here. Do you mind pulling it down for me, please?”

The faces of those below twisted. Was he really taking this to be a game? Since when could the Immortal Blood Gong Array be put up and taken down as some nobody pleased?

However, once again, Dyon’s actions caused the elders to be in no small shock.

The Immortal Blood Gong array couldn’t be touched simply because you were near it. In fact, the reason for its blood title wasn’t because of its red color, but rather because every touch sucked the life blood of the instigator away.

That was right. Not regular blood… But Blood Essence!

Those who understood this truth knew how shocking it was. Blood Essence was impossible to access without the consent of its owner. This was how beasts were able to protect their bloodlines from falling into the hands of humans. Yet, this array was actually able to forcefully snatch it!

But, even more shocking was the fact that Dyon casually touched its exterior without anything happening to him!

“Oh? No one wants to help me out?” Dyon frowned as though he felt wronged. After several seconds of no one responding to him, of course he had to follow up.

Unable to take it anymore, a member of the Giant Clans stepped forward.

“The Immortal Blood Gong barrier can’t be raised and lowered on a whim!” He roared.

It was clear that this Giant was enraged. He had been looking forward to displaying his battle prowess for the whole mortal plane to witness and maybe earn himself a place on the Heaven Scroll. Yet, some nobody was actually mucking up the proceedings.

“Why not?” Dyon asked innocently.

“An ignorant fool like yourself can’t imagine the amount of resources needed to put it up just once. This barrier can withstand the assault of dozens of Higher Existences for several weeks, even months if necessary!”

“So amazing!” Dyon’s mouth widened in surprise.

“Hmph. Scram!” The Giant roared. “Once the barrier is lowered, there’ll naturally be someone to deal with you!”

“I do have a question though.” Dyon said with a light smile, completely ignoring his threats. “What exactly is the point of this barrier? All of the elites of the mortal plane are already gathered inside and there isn’t some grand enemy on the outside, right? So why waste so many resources? It can’t just be that the Nephilim like to show off their wealth, right?”

The Giant’s face froze, because as Dyon was speaking, not only had he taken a casual step forward and slipped through the barrier… But so had the three women behind him!

Suddenly, everyone sensed the mocking intent behind his words… This person had come to stir trouble!
