Book 10: Chapter 58: Havoc (1)
The Universe Spirit was completely enveloped by Dyon’s technique. [Cleanse], especially when casted with holy type qi and Dyon’s purity flames was simply too potent.No Universe Spirit was born this way, similar to how no creature was born evil. Actually, Dyon wasn’t certain if this was the case anymore after meeting Jasmine… But this aside, Dyon understood that this Angel Spirit hadn’t been like this in the beginning.Think logically for a moment. When a universe was born, why would it have the characteristics of a specific race? Yet, somehow, this angel spirit reflected the image of a handsome angel male…The answer was obvious. Over years of tempering, the spirit came to hold the image of its owners, growing steadily more powerful over time.[Author’s Note: The reason the universe spirit of the Five Beast Clan Alliance looked like a cherub was a random event and a path chosen by the spirit itself. Those beast clans are incapable of grooming a universe spirit as they see fit. The Angels are on another level].What Dyon was doing now was cleansing the angel spirit of all of these influences!To be capable of doing such a thing, one can imagine just how powerful Ancient Grand Circle Magics were… To cleanse the efforts of the Angels themselves, its might was unquestionable!The angel spirit immediately lost its form. Maybe it wouldn’t have been so easy to do this at its peak, but now that it had continuously weakened over not just one, but over the course of three total Eras, it stood not a single chance.Soon, all that was left was the nucleus form of the universe spirit.It bobbed like a gentle pulse of light, before it began to slowly reform itself. Now that it had lost the influence of the Angels, it would take whatever form it pleased.The Chaos Spirit was a chaotic mesh of red and black energy. The Soul Spirit had chosen the form of a three-year-old girl with adorable large golden eyes. The Asura Spirit, under the influence of the Pakal Clan, took the form a six-armed demon. As for this angel spirit…Soon, the faint image of flapping wings caught Dyon’s attention.At first, he frowned. Wings? Did that mean his [Cleanse] had failed?But after a few moments he relaxed. The humanoid shape of the angel spirit no longer took form. Instead, it became a beautiful white dove, staring at Dyon curiously.The connection between them had already formed. Though Dyon had only cast [Cleanse], this was already the equivalent of defeating the universe spirit. As a result, it had become his 300th conquered universe.In the Mortal Alliance, the auspicious changes could already be seen.Little Alauna felt her Faith swell once more, as did Dyon’s wives. The energy density increased by a fraction, and many felt an inexplicable feeling of happiness even though they weren’t entirely certain of what had just happened.Still, the faintly understood that… Their Mortal Alliance had grown stronger once more!Sensing the changes, Dyon smiled.‘Even weakened, this dove spirit provides a 40% boost to energy cultivation talent. It’s no weaker than Soul Universe in this regard.’As one conquered more universes and quadrants, their abilities would begin to provide a synergistic effect. Eventually, after enough years, the benefits of every universe would become equally spread across the whole of the territory.To put matters simply, given enough time, the soul qi density of Soul Universe would be distributed and shared, for example. Not only would this not decrease Soul Universe’s usefulness, but it would actually increase it!Dyon also believe the previous angel spirit wasn’t so simple. However, it had lost this strength after being cleansed.Still, Dyon wasn’t regretful of this. He believed that the Olympus Clan had too many underhanded schemes. What if they placed other contingences to hurt those who tried to take advantage of what they left behind? Dyon refused to get caught with his pants around his ankles. It was better safe than sorry.“Alright, let’s go. You all can slowly enjoy the benefits of this place later. For now… We have more universes to conquer!”The Emperor Giants watched in awe as Dyon made something that should have been as difficult as finding universe spirits look as easy as taking a stroll.They felt a faint bit of heartache as their Faith decreased right before their eyes, but reaffirmed their resolve after seeing Dyon’s strength. They were certain that their decision was correct. If they didn’t have someone so powerful to rely upon… Their only ending would be death.Just a month later, all 100 universes of the Emperor Giant Quadrant had been added to Dyon’s strength. It was hard to believe, but they had all personally witnessed it. This was something they could only accept.Finally, they reappeared within the Emperor Giant Grand Hall, harboring dazed expressions.Was this truly the strength of a Higher Existence? Why did it seem even more exaggerated than what they initially believed?Dyon smiled. “Now that you have become one of my own, I guess I should fulfill my promises, right?”Dyon scanned them all with a calm expression, observing their excitement.“Now… Which of you will be the first to become an angel?”
