Book 10: Chapter 136: Of course (3)
Dyon released Luna. Though he liked the soft feeling of her waist, there were still too many matters to handle. Now that he had forcibly locked the Sprite Capital for two days, the Outer Powers were likely all in massive turmoil right now trying to find out what happened.
First, he had to conquer all of Sprite Alliance’s universe spirits. With Luna tying down their Higher Existences and all of their Fallen dead, this really was the best time.
Dyon had to say he was quite lucky. If it hadn’t been for Apollos’ existence, those Supremes would have never been bold enough to enter Luna’s territory so wantonly. Without that, they would have never been able to round them up so easily. So, quite frankly, Dyon had to thank the little guy.
Of course, all of this luck would have been useless had Dyon not planned in advance. But the sentiment was still the same.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSecondly, Dyon had to make his stance clear. If he couldn’t introduce himself to the world with enough strength and momentum, those other Outer Powers would think his Sacharro Clan was easy pickings. Instead of dealing with the headache that came from that, Dyon would rather blast them all away in one swoop.
Luckily, the Nephilim Gathering was occurring very soon. This would be the best opportunity.
Dyon wasn’t certain of the limits of his own strength currently, but he was still confident in dealing with the universe spirits of the Sprites since their Higher Existences were incapacitated.
Even now, Dyon wasn’t supremely confident in dealing with Higher Existences. This was mostly because of the current imbalance in his qi and body strength.
The greater the disparity between the two, the less perfect their fusion was, and thus the smaller the boost in strength that came with combining them became. The fusion would always be limited by the weaker half. Thus, though Dyon’s body had the strength of a 10th stage Dao Expert alone, he was only fusing it with his qi at the 6th Dao Stage.
This wasn’t too big of a deal. Dyon had only been slowing his qi cultivation down in order to keep it level with his body strength which was much harder to raise. Now, though, he didn’t have to worry about it. It would only take a few decades at most to fix this imbalance with his cultivation speed.
Of course, if he used half-step immortal grade pills, this speed would be much faster. But, how could such pills be so easy to refine?
There were no immortal grade spiritual herbs on the mortal plane. To refine the Essence Mending Pill, Dyon was forced to combine hundreds of star grade herbs to replicate the effect of just one immortal grade herb.
Not only was this taxing on his mind considering the countless calculations needed, he couldn’t use such a vast number of resources for just one pill without impacting his own conscience. historical
If Dyon wanted to do this, he would have to first allow Eli some time to plant and grow these once extinct star and planet grade herbs.
Thankfully, Eli had become far more adept at using his talents. So there should be results soon.
“Hey dad, before you leave!” Alauna called out just as Dyon was about to disappear.
“Hm?”
“Two things actually.” Alauna said with a sweet smile. “One, your alchemy cauldron birthed a spirit but she’s ignoring you because she thinks you ignored her. Second, can I have the second pill?”
“Oh?” Dyon paused.
The first was already enough for him to stop. But the second made his eyebrows furrow.
“Second pill?”
In the distance, those watching on could finally hear the family of three’s words once more. So, hearing Alauna’s request, they almost fainted. Even if you were spoiled, there had to be a limit to how much you were spoiled, right? This was a half-step immortal grade pill!
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmUnfortunately, these people did not know that Dyon once tried to give his daughter a Treasure of the 33 Heavens.
“Yes, there was a second pill.” Luna used her qi, sending the pill over to Dyon.
“This…” Dyon’s eyes widened.
Dyon immediately thought of something from the [Dao of Array Alchemy], but that was impossible… right?
Endowments were the pinnacle Blessings of Alchemy. Even unique flames paled in comparison to them.
When one delved into the path of Alchemy deeply enough to forge a Dao, it was possible to infuse Heaven’s Secrets into one’s pills. By infusing The Dao into a pill, it allows an Alchemist to break the laws of reality in an instant of time to produce something impossible.
Endowments were the result of breaking these laws. The problem was that Endowments were an existence only Alchemy Gods could touch! Even the greatest geniuses might only elicit one near the peak of the Alchemy Empyrean Realms!
Even then, in those extremely rare cases, those geniuses would only evoke the weakest Endowments.
For example, the Endowment of Elevation, which could raise the Grade of a Pill by one stage as long as it was below the Top Grade. Or, the Endowment of Stability which could allow the forceful condensing of a pill as long as one reached the final refinement step.
However, for a second pill to appear in Dyon’s refinement… It meant he had awakened the Endowment of Multiplicity! Even among the greatest Endowments, it stood at the very top! Even above the Endowment of Reinforcement which was the evolved form of the Endowment of Elevation.
Dyon smiled, tossing the pill over to his daughter.
“Of course you can have it.”
With that, he grabbed hold of an adorably stubborn little cauldron and vanished.
