Rebirth of the Nameless Immortal God

But the Lilith that was here right now was nothing like that. She was flustered, she had lost control of her emotions, and she was too quick to snap back. Dyon would be lying if he said he hadn't lost some respect for her.

Dyon suddenly stretched out his right arm, causing Lilith's two younger brothers to shift forward, blocking his path.

"You two are a bit annoying." Dyon sighed. "Go away for a bit."

Lilith's little brothers were very talented. Dyon remembered that they were only 7 or 8 years old last time he saw them. But, even still, they weren't as talented as their elder sister. So, even though it had been about ten years since they last met, they were still in the saint realm. How could they be a match for Dyon?

They found themselves forcibly suppressed within a defensive array. Dyon left them in the room so they wouldn't go too wild thinking he was raping their sister or something nonsensical like that. But at the very least, they couldn't move freely, nor could Dyon hear their voices anymore.

Lilith's venom-like gaze turned toward Dyon, but she found it difficult to do much of anything. She felt that her body was a complete mess. But that was when Dyon's right fist suddenly clenched and something Lilith could have never predicted happened… Dyon's forearm disappeared into a sprinkling rain of golden dust.

The reality hit Lilith like a ton of bricks. Dyon hadn't used his left hand to disrespect her. If anything, it was a sign of respect at the time as his right hand was now his weaker. And, on top of that…

'He's missing 9 of his meridians…' Lilith's heartbeat sunk.

Dyon knew exactly what she was thinking. She probably believed that as long as the Sapientia Auction happened, she could finally comprehend celestial qi and move forward. After she broke through, she thought that Dyon could never be her match.

But, she had no idea that Dyon was handicapped himself.

"Now that we've gotten that out of the way, have you collected yourself enough for us to have a real conversation?"

'He showed me his weakness to calm me down…' In the end, Lilith turned her gaze away and nodded slowly, dying of shame within.

"In reality, I think that your Devil Quadrants will become very useful to me soon. At the very least, I'll likely need information they have. At the worst, I may need to visit myself."

"… That's impossible. It took us years to get here and that was with our Devil Quadrants being directly adjacent to Chaos Universe."

"We have planet grade arrays. As long as you know the coordinates of your quadrant, getting there is simple. Of course, that would also require your fellow Devil Path cultivators giving us permission… Which is where you come in."

Once a universe is truly conquered, teleporting to it freely isn't possible. Permission of its owner is needed. Of course, this doesn't stop individuals from going the long way around. This was what those heading to The Conference now were being forced to do because of the Star Clan.

There was another way around this, of course. And that was to place a connecting formation there, much like what Amphorae, Lyla and Zaire had done in Star Clan territory.

"…" Lilith tried to hide her shock. Of course, she knew that Soul Universe had planet grade arrays, however they were never able to take them, not with the 99 universes monitoring them, anyway. It was part of the deal they signed keeping the 99 universes silent about their true identity.

And… As embarrassing as it was to say…. The devil cultivators didn't have any Array Alchemy Planet Lords despite being an outer quadrant… They didn't even have Array Alchemy Moon Lords…

"Of course, I don't plan on asking you to do things for nothing… How would you feel about me giving you that Sovereign Spark you've been chasing for all these years?"

BOOM!

Lilith suddenly felt like her world was collapsing.

Lilith froze.

"What did you just say?"

"How about it? Do you want it?"

"This… How do you even know this was my wish? There could be a million reasons why I want to go the Sapientia Auction. And, it's very much possible that I simply don't have enough talent to sense celestial qi."

"Don't be ridiculous." Dyon laughed. "If you really can't sense celestial qi, then I'll cut off my other arm for you. Do you think you can deceive my eyes? You can comprehend comet qi, but not celestial qi, the far easier of the two?"

"You…"

"You think I'm unaware? I'm the one who healed your soul, remember? Something it seems I might have to do again." Dyon shook his head.

Lilith's eyebrow twitched. 'He's … annoyed… I'm the one being taken advantage of … but he's the one who's annoyed …'

"Plus, the Sapientia have been advertising their big-ticket items for the longest of times, why else would everyone be so excited about the auction to the point of even your quadrant being drawn in?

"On top of that, I can see that while devil qi makes your qi far denser and your bodies much stronger, it has a negative affect on your soul. It makes it even more obvious what you want your Sovereign Spark to do."

Everyone was aware that the difference between taking the sovereign spark before the celestial realm and after was like night and day. Oddly enough, this only referred to one's energy cultivation, not your soul or body. This was because the Sovereign Spark, even if it could be used to amplify one's soul, was a fundamentally energy type treasure, therefore its highest potential was seen before celestial qi was comprehended.

Some might choose to fuse their spark with their meridians, that would make their ability to manipulate and use energy skyrocket. However, Lilith wanted to take an unconventional path and fuse it with her soul instead. She had the utmost confidence in her talent, but her soul would begin to hold her back in the future. This spark was her solution.
