Reaper of the Martial World

Book 10: Chapter 126: Action (2)

“AAGGHHH!”

Dyon roared, grabbing hold of his eye.

Unfortunately, no matter how he tried, there was nothing he could do. A flame that sent shivers down his spine erupted.

A moment later, it burst from his eye socket. Alauna and Luna could only watch on with their hearts tightening as Dyon’s left eye burst into a shower of blood.

The turn of events was too great. In one instant, they taught Dyon to be on top of the world, but in the next he was screaming in agony as a side of his face erupted in flames that sent shivers down their spine.

Dyon remembered the words spoken to him in the past.

His pupil manifestation… He couldn’t evoke its true strength unless he met one of two conditions: either temper his body to the Fate Silk Realm, or find both Hell’s Right Eye and Heaven’s Left Eye.

Who knew that before he could find Heaven’s Left Eye, this baleful existence would actually trigger without his consent, even obliterating his left eye entirely? If Dyon hadn’t found Hell’s Right Eye by a stroke of luck thanks to meeting Legolas, wouldn’t he be completely blind right now?

Unfortunately, the arrogant eye didn’t seem to care about it master’s pain. It continued to become more corporeal, forcing the space around it to tremble and shatter.

The Sprite Capital was immediately filled with spatial qi that sprinkled like glass shards. The situation became incomparably dangerous in but a split second. If it wasn’t for Luna’s expression changing and her immediate action, the deaths that would have ensued could only be imagined.

Dyon couldn’t grasp just what was happening.

One had to remember that his body had reached such a terrible state that he hadn’t felt much of anything for several weeks already. Yet, he was actually screaming out in pain now.

Dyon had experienced having his body completely remolded more times than he could count, he had been more savage to himself than even his enemies, more cruel to his own body that even that of others.

But in all these instances, he rarely screamed like he was now.

In the end, Dyon savagely bit his own tongue. Though it wasn’t to the point of cutting it off completely, it was more or less halfway to such a result. One could imagine how much strength was needed to do such a thing considering the current level his Titan Diamond Body had reached.

His fingers were completely singed having reflexively covered his bleeding eye socket, his body was bent over, completely hunched in pain even as the trembling of space continued.

‘You fool, if you don’t want to destroy this quadrant in its entirety, you better swallow your grievances and evoke your sealed world again. If not, you can bear the consequences of killing your daughter and the mother of your child alone.’

An ancient voice resounded in Dyon’s mind. Who could it be if not the Dragon King?

The old lizard had been dormant for quite a long time. Dyon simply found that he didn’t need him very much recently. But, who knew he would provide such a timely reminder?

Dyon grit his teeth. He knew he had no choice. The momentum of his singular pupil was too savage.

It had been the very first of his six black-gold halos to awaken, yet it was taking its sweet time becoming corporeal.

‘Damned brat really makes one faint from shock. Awakening a damn Vajra Body on the mortal plane. Are you trying to commit mass genocide?’

Dyon spun his qi, gritting his teeth as he suddenly became to feel the pain hidden within his marred meridians.

A moment later, the grand seal that once covered their skies appeared again.

Though those of the Sprite Alliance were completely unaware, it was in that very instant that the trembling of the mortal plane ceased…

But even if they did know, they would have cared because the scene before them was too magnificent.

One’s manifestation was inextricably tied to one’s soul and one’s soul was inextricably tied to one’s Dao Heart.

Upon birthing an undefeatable spirit, those without manifestations would manifest one, while those with one would likely experience mutations. This was where the title of spirit came from.

With the fall of the elves, the manifestation was mostly an ignored path. How often had Dyon come across an expert who wielded a manifestation? Aside from himself and his wives, he couldn’t think of many if any at all. historical

It was no wonder then that upon breaking into this realm, even those of the Outer Powers believed that they were birthing something new and failed to connect it to their already present Dao Hearts. As such, the moniker of undefeatable spirit came about.

Today, Dyon hadn’t experienced a mutation. His manifestation was just the same as it had always been. Though he didn’t know the reason, this didn’t matter much to him. Because the result was beyond his wildest imaginations.  

His manifestation now had a corporeal body. It could influence the world itself rather than only himself.

Just how strong was Dyon’s soul? Currently, if translated into qi cultivation, Dyon’s soul strength was at the Higher Dao Realm, essentially the lower extremities of the Star Grade.

[Author’s Note: Do remember that soul strength splits into two paths after a certain level is reached. One keys in on senses (Immortal Sense), the other is essential the amount and level of soul qi that can be wielded – aka pure strength. This was explained earlier.]

However, if one translated Dyon’s strength based on his combat prowess… His soul already overshadowed Higher Existences!
