Reaper of the Martial World

Book 7: Chapter 277: Four Color (6)

Dyon, after making himself a pair of comfortable sweatpants and cradled Madeleine in his arms, leaping into the skies. Since he was unable to control his new strength, he accidentally left a crater spanning 500 meters wide and a hundred meters deep, but he couldn’t be bothered to care.

He smiled as he saw the beast babies happily floating around in the skies. But, his focus was on something entirely different.

Before, he had been so focused on the matters surrounding the Lord Creator that he forgot something incredibly important: Christian III was the key wielder of the 4^th ranked quadrant! The sort of leverage this key gave him was invaluable.

Dyon remembered that back then, Titus had ransacked their corpses. Could it be that he took the key for himself? Although taking the key of another quadrant was taboo, Titus didn’t seem like the kind to care about such a thing…

As expected, Dyon was disappointed when he found the corpses of the five Golden Crow Sect disciples. They had practically been stripped naked.

“It’s not too big of a deal.” Madeleine consoled. “If anything, the fact Titus has the key takes some pressure of us. Also, since Titus was the one to kill him, that alleviates our pressure even more.”

Dyon sighed, but in the end he nodded. He preferred to have Madeleine control the key… Its use in war was too great. With its help, Dyon had confidence in using the Flaming Lily Sect to take over the territories of the Fiery Lotus and Flame Rebirth Sects before the Golden Crow Sect could form an appropriate response. But, without it, this was impossible…

With Dyon’s soul having truly broken into the dao realm now, he could finally use the true strength of the [Dao of Array Alchemy]. The level of formations within it were unlike anything these tower quadrants had ever seen before.

The only unfortunate part was that Dyon’s soul qi had been forcibly raised to the planet qi realm. He didn’t have the comprehension that came with it. However, with his soul talent, he was confident in as little as half a decade he’d be as proficient as any 1^st Level Planet Lord.

‘The auction will be a good place to gather the materials I need for laying these large-scale formations… if what I have already isn’t enough, that is…’

Dyon took a step forward, gliding toward the open doors of the third phase castle before he suddenly froze.

‘Those five spatial rings!’ With a thought, Dyon caused the five spatial rings Titus tossed at him to appear. They gently fell into Madeleine’s hands who still happened to be in his arms.

In the next moment, a very family elaborate golden key appeared before the both of them. The last time Madeleine saw this key, she thought Dyon had died a horrible death. It was a kind of full circle irony for her to see the same image with such happiness now. Although she had said that everything would be okay before, seeing this key here was actually a great relief.

Unlike the Celestial Deer Corner, the Golden Flame Corner had hubs on both the celestial and dao floors while those hubs of the celestial deer corner were either already taken over, or left dormant. This key was the best way to take control of them. Plus, that didn’t mention its use militarily.

Dyon was about to sigh a breath of relief when the key suddenly tried to fly away at blinding speeds. Madeleine’s expression changed. How could she forget? The most powerful Clans and Sects placed contingency plans on their keys in case anything unexpected, like the death of the wielder, happened. The only reason that Dyon’s key just floated up, waiting for anyone to take it, was precisely because he didn’t have such a plan in place. It was no wonder Titus left the key in God Goldeen’s spatial ring, he knew this would happen.

However, did they really expect that their contingency plan was enough? Dyon was a Planet Lord now, albeit only in power and not in comprehension, it was enough! historical

Dyon’s hand reached out. Suddenly, an overwhelming Presence fell from the skies. No, it wasn’t Presence, it was soul qi!

In that moment, thousands of small formations shattered, causing the key to fall harmlessly from the skies and onto Dyon’s palm.

Madeleine blinked. “That easy?”

Dyon laughed, handing the key to Madeleine. The formations protecting this key were actually Magic Circles. However, they hadn’t been properly maintained. In addition, the Magic Comprehension was of the Moon Lord grade at best. In the face of Dyon’s Presence infused soul qi, it was nothing but a wet piece of paper.

“I guess it’s time to see what that Lord Creator bastard left behind. The Heavens wouldn’t allow him to form a Legacy World without using a true Legacy as its core…”

Plus, even though Dyon didn’t say it, he knew that Orcus’ most valuable treasures, the ones he definitely couldn’t bear to see taken away, were in this third phase castle. After this, Dyon and Madeleine could take their time in scoping out the remainder of the world and then they could take it away. This way, Dyon’s Empire would have 3 Mystical Worlds as long as he could find a way to stabilize this world from fading away.
