Chapter 2034 Who?
?2034 Who?
Sonic booms resounded through the skies as a familiar Overlord cut through the air, making his toward them. But just as he was about to enter with a kilometer of the fiery white suns, he was suddenly hit with a vicious forcefield.
His handsome face distorted to the point of near comedy. It was as though he ran directly into a glass screen he hadn't seen coming.
Without suspense, his body was flung backward miserably as he crashed through the once snowy mountain ranges and collapsed.
He coughed, a mouthful of blood ruining his pristine white robes.
His expression turned gloomy. This was Ice Phoenix Territory. Who had ever dared attack them directly in the last several million years? Even those other 11 Overlord Clans didn't dare to do so because attacking them was tantamount to provoking all three of the Phoenix Clans. Each one of them alone was already more powerful than the Deity Clan. But the three of the together were in the top ranks of the 12 Overlord Clans. Who would dare do such a thing?
"Who are you?" Overlord Ascelyn.
"You… You're decent, I guess…" Dyon looked toward Ascelyn as though he was looking through him. He might as well have been air.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtWith Madeleine by his side, he could pull on her Fire Law comprehension. This was one of the abilities of the Dragon and Phoenix Dual Cultivation Technique. In this case, his white flames were a level more powerful without him having to risk comprehending a Law himself.
With this husband-and-wife pair standing together, a single one facet Overlord simply wasn't worth much. Though, it was curious that only one Overlord had appeared to now.
With Dyon's Immortal Sense, he could cover the entirety of the Ancient Battlefield with only a single odd exception: that mysterious core region. However, due the fact he wasn't 100% certain if there were any who had entered the Overlord Realm with the soul facet, he restricted himself a bit so as not to give away too much of his strength too soon.
Still, even with him restricting himself, it was still an easy affair to cover a single territory. He was well aware that the only Overlord in Ice Phoenix territory currently was this one before him now.
A moment later, Dyon stretched out his hand, causing a seal qi that threatened to collapse everything to surge forward.
The Seal appeared in the skies, covering the lands below with a golden glow as its numerous complex gears began to churn.
Ascelyn's expression changed drastically. Understanding what was about to happen, he turned and ran. He didn't care for the shocked expressions of his fellow Ice Phoenixes, nor did he care for his own face. If he didn't leave now… He would face a fate far worse than death!
However, would Dyon really give him a chance?
With a snap of his fingers, the world changed. Those beautiful nine suns flickered and disappeared, replaced by nine raging black suns shimmering with flames that seemed descendant of hell itself.
What once was an irresistible push became a pull so powerful that Ascelyn's made sprint halted in an instant.
"No!" He roared. But, it didn't matter.
He clawed at the ground as he was pulled toward the couple in the sky, a helpless rage reddening his visage.
Nine golden pillars of sealing qi descended from The Seal above, crashing into his body in a rhythm that seemed to resonate with heavenly laws.
"My wife has needed a mount for a very long time already. You'll do just fine." Dyon said without emotion.
Ascelyn was forced out of his human form, the gorgeous image of an ice blue bird flickering into existence.
"You dare do this to me?!"
A roar shook the once icy landscape, but it was immediately followed by cries of pain. How could The Seal so easily allow an enslaved beast to have thoughts of rage and murder toward its new master?
Madeleine smiled and shook her head.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Is this really what you meant? You're so bad." She couldn't help but giggle. In reality, she felt a little bad. This Ice Phoenix had probably ruled over countless individuals with impunity for so long, yet now he was in this state.
"There's no need to feel bad. He sentenced billions of dwarves to death on a whim just a few weeks ago for his own purposes, yet I gave him such a blessing in return. This is already his best outcome."
Madeleine smiled, but didn't respond.
She felt that Dyon's manor of speaking had changed. It wasn't that his words were different per se, but rather that he spoke from on high suddenly… As though everything was beneath his notice.
Something was bubbling up within her husband, she could clearly see it. If this world pushed him too far… He really might destroy it all.
"Was this the foundation for the four facet Overlord Realm you talked about?"
Dyon shook his head. "This is actually just a convenient detour. What we really needs is Phoenix flesh and blood."
"You mean… Your master's pill concoction path?"
Dyon nodded. "There are no phoenixes on the mortal plane aside from Mia and Bella. But, even if I was willing to use them for such a thing, they are Dark Phoenixes, so they aren't truly compatible with you. Luckily, there are so many phoenixes here.
"What you're lacking in is your bodily strength. Though Amethyst reformed your body to a certain extent, both your Sapientia bloodline and your Goddess' Disposition constitution are qi centric. You don't inherently have a very powerful body, unlike a beast would. So, reaching the Overlord Realm with your body will be very difficult for you.
"If we want to change that, we'll have to slowly start reforming your body and make it more bestial. If I concoct some pills with Phoenix blood, it would naturally be the most compatible with you. At that time, reaching that realm in all four facets won't be impossible."
"But…" Madeleine's brow furrowed. "… I have a feeling that there's a reason no one has reached four facets before. It's likely that the Heavens simply don't allow it."
