Rebirth of the Nameless Immortal God-Novel

Chapter 1708 Rainbows and Sunshine

The little girl always seemed fearless when she was in Dyon's arms, but she was much more timid when not. Being told she had to go away from her father when there was clearly a problem didn't sit right with her. Follow current s on (f)ir(e).nᴇt

Dyon felt a deep rage bubbling upward. He had made such grand improvements, thinking he'd always have everything in the palm of his hands from now on, but he couldn't even comfort his own daughter.

'You damned thing, what the hell are you anyway? If you're going to reside in my body, how about you earn your keep?'

Dyon's inner eye turned its gaze toward the rainbow gem embedded into the chest of his nascent soul.

'Come on…'

Dyon had little information about just what this newly formed dao heart was. It was truly an odd event. Usually, one would have to comprehend something or gain something deliberate in order to form a dao heart. For example, Zaire was forced to meditate for decades to form his Chaos Heart.

It didn't make much sense for one to have such a small understanding of their own dao heart, it defeated the entire purpose. Yet, here Dyon was.

All he knew was one word: Control.

The strength of heart to control everything. Those were his only thoughts when he formed this dao heart.

Dyon's eyes closed, seemingly falling into a deep state of meditation while standing.

Alauna's little chubby face was like a guiding light, leading him forward.

Every hidden crevice of his body was laid before. Unknowingly, his manifestation loomed into existence. An illusory image that usually struck fear into all those who saw it suddenly made the small Alauna who was struggling against her mother's embrace relax.

Dyon's raging mercury blood became as calm as the surface of an undisturbed lake, several pathways between his meridians and blood vessels becoming blocked off by strong sealing energy.

It was only then that perpetual pressure in the room suddenly dropped. They hadn't realized it until now, but Dyon's body had been suppressing them all… Almost like the feeling lesser beasts felt when faced with greater ones. Well, everyone except Clara and Little Alauna that is.

"Daddy!" Little Alauna was the first to react, taking advantage of her mother's stupor, she leapt toward Dyon with a happy expression on her little face.

Amphorae was about to take a step to stop her, but she realized that Dyon had gotten a grip on himself faster than they would have expected.

Dyon caught Alauna in the air, raising her high. He couldn't help but feel good as he was serenaded by his little girl's giggles.

"For now, I've only used some stop gap measures." Dyon looked toward Luna, Amphorae and Clara. "I need more time to control it. It seems my thoughts of entering the Higher Celestial Realm have to be shelved for now."

Dyon smiled bitterly, sending an inward gaze toward the seals within his meridians. What a terrible showing, he suddenly gained a massive boon in strength, but had no ability to use it.

Well, that wasn't entirely accurate. If he had no worries about harming those around him, he could unleash unprecedented strength. However, even in that case, if his strength wasn't controlled, what could he even do with it? For example, how could he execute techniques if he couldn't control his own energy?

"That's the exact opposite mindset you need to have."

Suddenly, the voice of the Demon Sage sounded once more. It seems Luna finally let this father-in-law of his off the hook.

"Not only do you need to reach the Higher Celestial Realm, you need to reach beyond that if you want to have any hope of controlling yourself. It's alright if your energy is stronger than your body, but the opposite is bad if you want to have thoughts of control.

"Blood is too used to rampaging about as it sees fit. Whenever you have an injury or infection, blood rushes to it. Whenever you work a muscle, blood rushes to it. Even the areas of the brain you use to think, blood rushes to them.

"Blood acts on instinct, only energy is completely deliberate and controllable. You need more energy if you want to use this strength."

The Demon Sage had put away his envious expression and looked toward Dyon with the utmost? seriousness.

"If you had been born with it like you were supposed to be, this wouldn't be difficult for you. I had to make sure that my energy and body were perfectly balanced. I could have broken into the Higher Existence Realm with just my body long ago, I didn't need to rely on the Epistemic Tower to reach that realm along that path. But I was held back by my energy cultivation."

According to what Dyon knew, the Demon Sage needed to reach the top floor of the Epistemic Tower in order to reach the Higher Existence Realm. The problem was that there were restrictions placed on the tower. One couldn't step onto the dao floors unless you had the Faith of a King God Clan backing you, and you couldn't step onto the top floor unless you had the backing of an Emperor God Clan.

There were restrictions on the celestial floor as well, that being the requirement of a Royal God Clan. Luckily, Dyon had taken control of Soul Rending Peak, which freed him of this restriction. But, he had yet to conquer Soul Universe, so he couldn't count as a King God Clan quite yet. This wasn't because there were hidden Clans within Soul Universe, but rather because Dyon had to personally subdue the universe itself, something he wasn't quite powerful enough to do yet. Though, this mutation in his meridians might change that…

The Demon Sage turned his gaze toward Little Alauna who was in Dyon's arms. "This little pup is already leagues better than you in that regard, likely because it's all she's known since birth."

Little Alauna blinked, too enthralled by her father's embrace to listen to Sargeras' words.

"If I were you, I'd need to reach the dao realm before even thinking of undoing those seals. But since your body is unique and it seems you're from a race of people meant to take this path, you won't have to go so far. Maybe the pseudo dao realm will be enough?"

"Pseudo Dao Realm, huh?" Dyon smiled toward Little Alauna, it seemed he was more interested in playing with his daughter than listening to the Demon Sage's words.

The Demon Sage snarled. "It's all rainbows and sunshine until she falls in love."

Dyon glared at Sargeras. But, remembering that this was what the Demon Sage had experienced with him and Amphorae, he couldn't help but laugh. If his little girl could find a man as good as him, wouldn't that be a good thing? Though if he tried to have other wives, Dyon would break his legs.

"Daddy, daddy. Do this!"

Dyon's attention turned back to his little girl, only to see her eyes glowing. The hazel of her hazel green eyes suddenly deepened in color, becoming a bright, complex gold.

Dyon blinked in astonishment. He wanted to call out to Alauna to be careful, but it was already too late.
