Book 6: Chapter 432: Birth Right (1)

Dyon’s body continued to float as motes of light sucked in so much Primordial energy toward itself that half of Dyon’s supply disappeared in an instant.If Dyon was fully conscious, such an event would have shocked him to no end. He had an entire universe’s worth of Primordial Energy, meant to be capable of fueling one for trillions of years. How in the hell did half simply disappear?!Even when filling the celestial beast’s world, Dyon had only used ten planets worth, something they wouldn’t be able to use up completely even with a hundred lives, let alone their one.Yet, one thing was clear… It was in direct response to half of that energy disappearing that the shattering of glass was heard.Dyon had no idea what that sound was. It had nothing to do with him transcending some barrier or comprehending something… And, although he could feel his demonic will crumbling to form something new just like his sword and spear will had destroyed themselves to make room for his weapon’s master will, he was certain that it wasn’t related to that either.There was no way for him to know the kind of reverberating effects he had had on the immortal plane…Still, as though nothing at all had happened, the Titan Diamond Bodies slowly coalesced into one, beginning the steps of forging Dyon’s bones.Normally, someone born with this constitution would be three meters tall at the shortest. In most cases, they’d even dwarf the Emperor Giants to stand over ten or even twenty meters tall. These men wouldn’t just be humans, they would be beasts.However… Dyon had no will to be so large. He felt that his current height of 6’6 was already pushing the limits of how large he wanted to be. Although Eli was his close friend, he had no desire to match his 7-foot-tall height.‘Condense. Condense. Condense.’ Dyon’s sub-conscience seemed to roar in denial. He didn’t want to skewer his wives, for god’s sake.Still, no matter how much Dyon protested, the first vague outline of his skeleton was over 2.5 meters tall, even while he was sitting down.‘I said condense!’Dyon was asking for something almost impossible. The hardness of a material was correlated with not only its structure, but also its density. You couldn’t just arbitrarily condense such already tough material.Those born with Titan Diamond Body would have their bodies forged of some of the hardest materials in the world, especially their skeleton. In fact, so-called comprehension of this constitution entailed raising the quality of your skeleton to new heights.There were nine main stages broken into three watershed moments.The first three were collectively known as the Gem stage. The constitution wielder’s body would become hundreds of times heavier than one of their size would normally be. Their skeleton would no longer be forged by the normal parameters of organic carbon, but would rather gain a far denser and complex structure comparable to that of the hardest substances in the world.This stage contained an almost unbreakable defense. Even if a wielder of this constitution’s flesh was incinerated into nothingness, their essence would still be trapped within their bones. In fact, as long as they had enough life force, it was possible for them to regenerate.Reaching this stage was similar to have gained an undying body and tenacious life force, but it had its major drawbacks as well.In addition, the skin of those at this stage would be akin to a sheet of metal and their muscles would be like cords of steel.That said, while the skeletal structure of this stage would be nigh-indestructible, their muscles wouldn’t be able to handle the burden. There were often cases of tendons snapping quite frequently in wielder’s stuck in this stage because they would try to use power beyond their capability of bearing.The second three were collectively known as the Mesh stage.  At this stage, muscles would be reconstructed once more, taking the cord steel like structure from the first stage and overlaying them, completely shattering the upper limits of the first stage.Their muscles would be able to bear far more weight. In fact, at this stage, it would be the skeletal structure that was the limiting factor, not the muscles. There were many cases of wielders using so much power that their bones would be crushed to dust…However, the final stage was the most sought after… It was this stage that only the Emperors of the Primordial Era ever touched, a stage so godly that it brought the user a body bordering on immortal.This was known as the Silk Stage.While there were only three documented levels to this stage, the reality was that there were six…According to the current knowledge, the first three stages were bronze, silver and golden… In the final golden stage, the body would constantly emit a warm light caused by its being forged by fine lines of golden string barely a few atoms in width.However, the hidden steps above were the first, crystalline, the second, diamond, and the third… fate.Crystalline Silk… Diamond Silk… And finally, Silk of Fate.The trouble with this constitution was that moving forward even a single step was impossible. The appetite of the Titan Diamond Body was insatiable… It required an eating regimen that far surpassed even Dyon’s normal standard. Yet, the problem was that Dyon could already eat celestial beasts without issue… Simply put, the beasts of this era didn’t have powerful enough bloodlines to fuel this constitution…Wasn’t it was quite curious that Dyon’s normal disposition tended toward eating a lot, wasn’t it?
