Book 9: Chapter 155: Carnage (3)

“Oh? It looks like they’re here.” Dyon said casually.

The Gate Dyon chose for this battle had the flattest landscape possible. The only oddity were the countless floating islands in the sky. Some where only a couple meters across, while others were up to half a kilometer in diameter.

According to what he understood, these floating islands provided different advantages. Those with red-tinted soul sealed everything but your body cultivation. Those with green-tinted soil sealed everything but your qi. Finally, those with yellowish brown tinted soul sealed everything but your soul.

Depending on the area of the Gate, there were usually larger ratios of one floating island to another. These shifts in ratio impacted the flat lands before, suppressing and even improving certain paths.

The special characteristic of this Gate went a slight bit further than this as well. Along with Key Towers, these floating islands could be conquered. Once conquered, they could be moved and positioned at will.

As one might expect, the Shruti controlled most of the red floating islands while the Kitsune controlled most of the green floating islands. This much made sense, after all, the Shruti were body cultivators first and foremost, while the Kitsune, despite being beasts, were born with relatively weaker bodies. However, their control over the elements and their qi was exceptionally high.

This arrangement of floating islands was what resulted in the stalemate of this Gate and was the reason why the eight Key Towers were perfectly split – four to each side – between the Shruti and Kitsune.

Unfortunately, the yellow floating islands were practically entirely neglected. At this point, Dyon’s divine sense could no longer be described in simple kilometer measurements, he could easily see to the edges of this Gate.

He didn’t know it now, but he had reached a basic unit of what they called a World Seer on the Immortal Plane. Simply put, he was a First Grade World Seer, meaning he could grasp the intricacies of an entire ‘world’ with a sweep of his senses.

In truth, Dyon underestimated his own divine sense and had become too careful. He had become so used to not needing to use his divine senses to their maximum capabilities that he handicapped himself.

The Immortal Plane didn’t have ‘universes’ and ‘quadrants’. Essentially, being a First Grade World Seer meant that Dyon could see everything occurring in a single universe all at once. Even Dyon himself had yet to realize this, or else he wouldn’t have been so careful with his divine sense when he came to Indra City.

Dyon was entirely focused on something else. He laughed bitterly when he noticed that most of the yellow islands were pushed off to the side like Shruti and Kitsune had come to a mutual understanding between themselves to completely ignore them.

However, these bitter thoughts were immediately interrupted as yet another scrumptious scent filled his nose.

Saru smiled sweetly as she handed another large dish to Dyon. It was shaped into a bowl half of his body’s size, but Dyon didn’t hesitate to take it. He felt shock when he realized this dish weighed thousands of jin.

“This is one of my favorite creations. I call it God’s Nectar Soup. I seeped cleansing water with 76 different herbs and spices, but the secret base is dragon marrow. Then, I marinated dragon heart and thigh for three months in 134 different herbs and spices. Finally, I enclosed it all in nectar gold for a year, allowing it to be washed over with cleansing energies.”

Dyon completely forgot about the impending war.

Before, when he had said they were here, others hadn’t realized it just yet. Even with the flat lands and their high cultivation, the enemy army was still too far away to see. However, by this point, even the weakest warrior amongst them could see the charging warriors.

‘Fast!’

It was the only word they could all think of. The Six-Winged Dhino warriors could only be described in such a way.

They looked up toward Dyon with pleading expressions, as though to urge him to do something, but he was too enamored with the dish before him.

Emperor Shruti and Atlas could no longer hold bitter expressions, their visages could only continuously darken.

“Dragon marrow and meat?” Emperor Atlas muttered. “… Wasn’t that the gift I prepared for her becoming a True God? She’s giving it away so casually?”

Dyon tried to use a spoon to take a sip of the massive bowl of soup, but it completely bent under its weight.

Unable to take it any longer, Dyon’s qi swept forward, forming a spoon with enigmatic qi and bringing the rich brown-gold liquid to his mouth.

The moment it hit his tongue, he felt like he had been brought to a higher plane. He had never tasted anything so delicious in his entirely life. It felt as though hot blood was surging throughout his body. This single sip added almost 20 jin to his current body weight limit!  

He couldn’t help but roar to skies.

It wasn’t until now that Brahman understood just how powerful Dyon’s body was. Even compared to his Great Grandfather, he could only feel the latter was lacking… How was that possible?!

This wasn’t entirely true. After all, Grand Elder Vata had entered the peak dao realm while Dyon’s body was in the lower dao realm. Objectively speaking, Dyon was weaker in a pure bodily strength sense. It was only because he could perfectly fuse his vital and conventional qi that he was so powerful.

However, Dyon’s aura was impossible to match.

In the distance, Kaori spoke to Five who had long since come back from his scouting mission.

“Are you certain?” Kaori asked with a frown.

“I’m certain. Nothing has changed except for the addition of a single masked man. And, from what we can see, other than Princess Saru who treats him warmly, the discontent in the army is high.”

“… Is that so…” Kaori shook his head, unable to understand.

If this person was so powerful that they could upturn everything alone, the army wouldn’t be so discontent. But, if he really was the only changed factor, he couldn’t be weak either… Just what was going on?!

“… Stick with the initial plan. In fact, inform Seven to make her probe and retreat even faster.”

“Understood.” Five nodded.

Kaori had become even more cautious after Five’s report. He didn’t understand what was going on… And what he hated most was to not understand…

Unfortunately for the Six-Winged Dhino warriors, his worries were about to be proven correct.

“Watch closely, my disciple!” The hole in Dyon’s mask closed as his hand casually stretched out toward the charging Six-Winged Dhino warriors.

The scene was chaotic but had an odd order to it all. Each of the dhino warriors wore beautiful silver armor, three pairs of insect-like transparent wings fluttering faster than the eye could see on their backs. If one blinked, they would have already crossed tens of kilometers.

Brahman suddenly felt his heart shake. It wasn’t just him, but even the armies below and the two Emperors. Scenes of a bloody hell and murder sweeping through their minds.

“This is the power of a soul cultivator!”

Millions of blood red formations blotted out the skies, washing the Gate in a crimson light. historical

“[Judgement]!” Dyon’s eyes sharpened, golden gears spinning in his eyes as he strengthened the array many times over.

“[Carnage]!”
