Reaper of the Martial World

Book 9: Chapter 112: Reunion (2)

Dyon calmly watched as his clones demolished the blue armored army. For an army made up entirely of Lower Dao Formation avatars, there was nothing difficult about the task.

The Mortal Alliance watched in awe. Was a dao tribulation meant to be so easy?

Maybe the Heavens were enraged, but by the time the second tribulation descended, it was almost easier than the first.

Dyon’s qi was sealed, and his body’s movements were locked in place. Not long afterward, yet another army descended, but the difference this time was that Dyon was given an army of his own as well.

It didn’t take a genius to understand that this was yet another War God Tribulation, except this time, Dyon was tasked with taking on the role of Commander.

Unable to use your own prowess, the tribulation was without a doubt meant to be quite difficult. In fact, the War God himself struggled with this trial very much as a man who believed in his own strength first and foremost. historical

But, the Heavens made one mistake… While his qi was sealed and his body was restricted from movement, there were no such measures taken on his soul at all.

Commanding his troops, Dyon systematically dismantled the opposing army. His attacks and counterattacks were so precise and ferocious that Emperor Pakal could only lower his head in respect. Both he and Lord Odin had already been unwilling to fight back any longer after the first 4 weeks of Dyon’s battle with Oshire, but now they found it hard to raise their heads.

Much like the first two War God trials Dyon faced, these two came with rewards of their own.

The War God Avatar trial taught Dyon True Weapon Wills, a path many sought for all of their lives but could never find. Yet, Dyon had grasped the start of not just one, but nine of them.

The War God Heart trial laid the very foundation Dyon used to form his Dao Heart. It may have seemed that the Pride Clan was the sole reason, but the truth was that Dyon had been slowly laying the groundwork for his breakthrough for a long time. In truth, even now, he was still doing exactly that. The secrets of his Dao Heart were a mystery even to him…

Maybe it was quite apropos that Dyon’s Dao Heart was just as arrogant as himself.

This aside, this time around, Dyon gained some interesting benefits as well.

His first dao trial, the War God Army trial, gained him an interesting new energy he didn’t exactly know how to classify. It was kind of like Presence, but also like a Domain at the same time.

It was only after slaughtering half of the army that Dyon came to realize exactly what it was… It was War God Martial Intent!

When Dyon saw this, he immediately stopped going through the motions of his trial, activating his soul qi halo and basking in the feeling. It would be too late to regret it if he didn’t comprehend as much as he could before the tribulation ended.

Like he expected, Dyon wasn’t disappointed.

War God Martial Intent, it was a Martial Intent that stole the will of others by killing them. Essentially, the more enemies one faced, the more one killed, the stronger you would grow through battle. It was like exchanging the life of your enemies for strength.

When outside of battle, the intent would fade away, slowly bringing you back to your original strength. But despite this, Dyon was very intrigued. He often fell into unlucky situations where he was forced to face many enemies at once, who knew that such disadvantageous situations could bring him benefits?

Dyon’s second Dao Trial, however, made him realize that he had comprehended only a portion of the true War God Martial Intent.

Being able to strengthen yourself was one aspect, but the strengthening of your subordinates was the second aspect!

The War God Commander trial showed Dyon exactly this. Not only could he now gain strength from the kills of the warriors he commanded, his warriors could gain strength from the kills he gained as well!

This was why he felt that the new energy was both like Presence and a Domain. It was like Presence in that its first form could only benefit him, but it became like a Domain when its second form was fused with the first. Now, anyone within the Martial Intent’s range of influence would gain the same benefits!

Dyon suddenly became very happy that he didn’t actually skip over these tribulations. If he had, who knows if he would have ever comprehended such a useful Martial Intent? He hadn’t even known Martial Intents could be used in this way!

At this point, Dyon couldn’t help but wonder what other rewards there were for clearing the War God Trials… Unfortunately, he wouldn’t face any other tribulations until he became a Higher Existence, and he didn’t even know if War God tribulations would appear then.

Could this Martial Intent have more pieces? He had no way of knowing…

As though to disappoint him, Dyon’s final dao trial gathered tribulation lightning clouds.

Those below trembled, their mouths twitching when they saw Dyon’s disappointed face.

Why are you feeling disappointed?! Those are Six-Color Tribulation Clouds! Usually only Higher Existences would face such a thing!

But the result made them lament they ever said something.

… Forget it, the difference between him and us is too much… We’ll kill ourselves if we think about it anymore…

Dyon raised a beautiful silver-gold mask to the skies, standing patiently as it absorbed the tribulation lightning to its heart’s content.

Finally, the Lightning Willow Mask was complete, becoming a 12^th Stage Supreme Grade Treasure – a mighty Pseudo Treasure of the 33 Heavens.
