Reaper of the Martial World

Book 7: Chapter 379: Just Minutes (3)

Dyon explained his plan to Ava simply so she wouldn’t worry, but it was actually more complicated than he let on.

Even if Dyon closed off access to Low Gold City and its teleportation formations, others could still take the long way to reach the gold danger zones. Although several silver danger zones surrounded them, for the enemies Dyon had angered, they would be no more than a joke. In fact, Gods wouldn’t even waste their time on danger zones below gold, let alone True Gods.

In order to handle this loophole, Dyon directly used his remaining silver danger zone claims on the 9 silver danger zones that surrounded the pagodas. To do this, he had no choice but to relinquish the rights to 2 of the 3 silver danger zones he claimed from the Enigmatic Sect.

With those danger zones under Dyon’s control, along with his monopoly of Low Gold City, no one would be able to enter this area without his permission.

The only unfortunate part was that unlike his territory protection, he could only lay claim to danger zones for the next 6 months. This left his Demon Generals half a year to use the pagodas to their heart’s content. By the end, Dyon would need to come up with another counter measure to deal with the inevitable anger of True God Aurum, Lux and Nativus, not to mention the Daisho and Star Clans.

However, what did Dyon have to worry about? Since he had chosen to do this, let them come! Nothing was more important to him than helping his Demon Generals pursue their path of cultivation. They had helped him out greatly when he was too weak to protect himself. Now that their roles had flipped, he wouldn’t forget about them.

With this in mind, Dyon got to work doing what he did best. With Meiying’s help, he grasped full understanding of the Feng Shui in and out of Low Gold City. With this firmly in mind, he started mapping out the largest formation he had ever built himself.

Even back during his second trial, although Dyon provided the formation, it was actually Amphorae’s mother of her first life that handled laying it down. After all, his soul was sealed back then. And, even if it wasn’t, he was a mere grandmaster at the time. However, now, things were different.

Dyon chose to lay two formations. One was a defensive formation that relied on pockets of heavy earth will, and the second was an offensive formation.

The defensive formation was known as [Gaia’s Will]. It relied heavily on a comprehension of sturdiness and stability inherent in earth will.

Obviously, Dyon had no comprehension of earth will. As a result, he could only rely on Meiying’s abilities to supplement what he lacked. This was the power of a Feng Shui Master.

Dyon didn’t have years to lay down the full formation. After all, he was only one man. Usually, such large scale formations were laid down by entire teams of array alchemists, which was why he created an entire Faction dedicated to them.

Unfortunately, that Faction was nowhere near prepared. Many of them hadn’t even broken into the saint realm. So, Dyon was alone. As such, he couldn’t even replicate 1% of this Comet Grade Formation.

The second formation was known as [Infinite Heart]. It was actually a puppet master formation.

What puppets struggled with most were appropriate energy sources. A large part of why Dyon never used the puppets the Demon Sage Tower awarded him was precisely because of this.

Luckily, the [Infinite Heart] formation mitigated this issue. The only problem was that it limited the range a puppet could travel in. Obviously, if a puppet left the range of the formation, there would be no more energy supplementing them.

[Infinite Heart] came in 3 tiers with each tier separated into four grades. The lowest tier could power saint puppets, the second, celestial puppets, and the third, dao puppets. As for the grades, it corresponded to the divisions within those cultivation realms, lower, middle, higher, and peak.

Though Dyon met the minimum requirement for drawing the dao tier as a planet lord, he, once more, didn’t have the time. In addition, [Infinite Heart] was a Moon Grade formation, as such it was even more difficult to draw than [Gaia’s Will].

Dyon could only settle for the peak celestial tier version of the formation. Even more unfortunately, with the two-month time limit he gave himself, his puppets had a range of 100 km from the center of the formation at most. Considering how large the celestial floors were, it was near negligible. Luckily, a 100km radius covered the most core portions of Low Gold City. As for the outer regions, [Gaia’s Will] would have to protect them.

The last piece of the puzzle Dyon needed were the energy sources the [Infinite Heart] formation would need. These were provided by energy stone veins it was once more up to Meiying to find. Luckily, she didn’t let him down.

Even though Dyon was greatly dissatisfied with his performance in laying these two formations, all of the Low Gold City was completely mesmerized.

Videos of Dyon’s overwhelming soul qi sweeping through the city for almost two months took up what seemed like the entirety of the Sapientia Forums.

When the Sapientia Guilds caught wind of these videos, they sucked in a cold breath. Months ago, when they heard Dyon’s demand of 30 turned 40% of the Sapientia Network, they had snorted in disdain. Dyon might be a genius in combat, but the secondary professions were a completely different beast.

But, seeing these images, they could only shrink back at their own inferiority. It was then that Aritzia was called in for a meeting with the Sapientia upper echelon…

As these things were occurring, Dyon wiped off a final bead of sweat as he finished etching in the final symbol. He had invested more than just his own stamina into this, large scale formations required an ungodly amount of resources. Dyon easily spent half a million dao stones gathering what he needed, and these were just two formations! The price would have been even worse had it not been for relying on Feng Shui.

Just as Dyon was finally relaxed enough to finally check out the gold danger zones, he got a message from Clara that froze him in his tracks.

“Dyon, hurry! The twins won’t last more than a few more minutes… They want to see you one more time…”

Dropping everything, Dyon left at his fastest possible speed.
