Reaper of the Martial World

Book 9: Chapter 142: Pawn (2)

Dyon had comprehended so many Earth Grade techniques so quickly obviously in thanks to the Soul Tome. Though it was harder to reach the One with Self Realm after relying on it to perfect your comprehension, Dyon found the barrier to still be incredibly thin.

As a result, in just a single month, Dyon breached the One with Self Realm in all 1300 techniques. Or rather, his clone did. He was too busy with his vacation to bother. It likely would have been faster if he acted personally.

He repeated the process with Heaven Grade techniques directly afterward. Though he felt the barrier was a few times thicker, he didn’t feel it was impossible. He had already felt some inspiration for a few.

By his calculations, a decade or so would be enough to reach the One with Self Realm in them all. Unless his soul reached a higher realm, then the time would likely be cut down once more.

Dyon felt that this wasn’t only because of his own talent, but because the Soul Tome grew stronger as he did, allowing its owner to be less restricted.

The stronger he grew, the stronger the treasures of 33 heavens also seemed to grow. But this reality made sense. These were treasures that even Transcendents drooled over, who knew how many wars the Immortal Plane had fought over them? If this was the limit of their strength, it would be too disappointing.

In all likelihood, these treasures would only show their true strength when supplied with Immortal Qi. Unfortunately, Dyon was too far from such a state.

Still, he was satisfied. Currently, his soul was at the entrance of the Star Realm and still a way from its peak. So, he had a large bit of room for improvement before he had to consider breaking another barrier of cultivation.

Dyon realized after his battle with the Ancestor Sapientia just how important techniques were. He had hardly noticed because he usually crushed everyone in his generation, but he would be many times more powerful if he used techniques suitable for his cultivation realm instead of using common grade techniques all the time.

Thinking to this point, Dyon couldn’t help but sigh.

‘Just why are you having me do such an insane thing, Master…? Comprehending 1300 common grade technique? For what purpose…?’

Dyon shook his head. He could only guess that Esmeralda had something grand in store for him.

Either way, no matter how great the Celestial Deer Sect was, they definitely didn’t have 1300 Divine Grade techniques. Even the whole of the Mortal Plane wouldn’t have that many. So, the Heaven Grade would be the last grade Dyon could learn such a number of.

At most, Dyon would be able to learn 3 of each category, putting him at 39. Even then, the celestial deer sect didn’t have this many. It seemed he would need to do a bit of… reconnaissance work.

If others heard how Dyon worded his clear intention to steal, their lips would twitch at his shamelessness.

Dyon shook his head. He came here for a purpose and he had gotten swept away in a whirlwind of mystery. When the time was right, his master would tell him the truth.

“It’s about time to pay that Kitsune Clan a visit. I hope you like fox meat.” Dyon laughed as the cauldron hopped in his hand, almost as though to say it was his favorite.

‘Hm, after learning so many weapon techniques, it seems my Weapon’s Master Will might break into the intent realm soon…’

**

“Can you do it?” Dyon asked, looking toward Fox.

It was quite ironic, he was just speaking of eating fox meat when he realized he would need Fox’s help.

Fox, of course, wasn’t an actual fox. He was a Heaven’s Child with the ability to duplicate inanimate objects as long as he was provided with adequate energy or an adequate sacrifice.

Fox frowned as he looked at the mask in Dyon’s hand. He innately felt that no amount of energy in the world could replicate this mask.

“No can do, Unblemished Emperor. I can feel a strong force of life within this treasure, it definitely has a powerful soul sleeping within.”

Dyon nodded. “I see… Just as I thought.”

Even now, Dyon had no idea a Lightning Sparrow was slumbering within the Lightning Willow Mask… A majestic beast cursed for its beauty with the greatest speed in existence… It was so fast that no one could appreciate it even when it appeared.

Dyon had been hoping to duplicate the mask so that Amphorae and Madeleine could wear it. Though he was going to interfere in the matters of the Kitsune-Shruti Quadrant, he didn’t want too many people to know just how strong he was now, or else it would affect his plans for the Federation.

As for bringing Amphorae and Madeleine along, he had two reasons. First because they were the only two of his wives capable of displaying the strength of Dao Realm experts, and second because he simply wanted them by his side. If it was up to him, he’d bring Ri and Clara along as well, it was just that they were still too weak.

Dyon had even brought out the Demolition Cube, a Pseudo Weapon of the 33 Heavens he took from the Daiyu Clan long ago but rarely used. He wanted to see if Fox could use it as a sacrifice for the duplication, but it seemed even it wasn’t enough.
