Chapter 208 Declaration Of Ownership
There was definitely a reason and an explanation for why there were so many beings here as well as why they could absorb Zero Energy like superpower users. The only way for Dante to find out was to directly involve himself with them, and he had an idea of how to do so.
He left the Solaris Horizon E7 and returned to his base on Earth. Seeing the now silent base that had become less active due to the reduced workload, he felt like he had made significant progress from when it was first built.
He smiled and entered the Vitality Pools area, choosing to enter his usual pool. Upon dipping within, Dante simply sat cross-legged and started chanting the Inferno Ascension Technique’s mantra.
Usually, right after raising his SDI, he would raise both his magical methods by one level, but he had been left unsettled and distracted due to his quantum connection with his persona on Earth, so he had rushed back to deal with all these things.
Now, he could deal with his capital and foundation in both universes, his own personal power. Without enough strength, he could still remain powerful, relying on his technological advantage, but that would forever be his limit.
What Dante wanted was to surpass being a mere user of technology and become its very god. So to start taking the steps on that path, he needed to have a strong fist to subdue all those who would compete with him for that spot.
Dante remained cross-legged while chanting for what seemed like a few minutes to him as a blaze of great blackish-red hellfire erupted around him, but the actual truth was that he spent more than 6 hours like this.
When the fire finally converged into his body and merged into his large pill-like dantian, which was suspiciously similar to a golden core, it caused the core to split up like a cell and become two, doubling its existence.
With this doubling, though, came a direct increase in Dante’s Internal Force capacity by twofold. However, it did not stop there as Dante’s two core-like dantians which contained burning hellfire split again, making four.
They then split again, making 8, then 16, then 32, to 64 and 128. One would think it would stop here, but they continued splitting and doubling until they reached 1024!
One thousand and twenty-four dantians full of Internal Force! Even if Dante did not use his now 2-kilometer-wide/high/long spirit sense to retrieve his flames, he could likely fight for weeks on end at high-intensity consumption without even trying to conserve anything.
[Magical Powers: Inferno Ascension Technique (Level 5: Greed’s Ember Flow, 7%)]
[Level 5 – Greed’s Ember Flow: Upon reaching this level, the user can harness the undulating energy of greed, creating a second and even third dantian to contain more Internal Force. Their Internal Force capacity soars by at least twofold, and the exact exponential increase is based on their constitution as well as the number of activated sub-dantians.]
Even better was that Dante could now use the method to condense Orbs of True Force that could detect the Internal Arts talent of others. Usually, Internal Force masters sparingly created such things because the Internal Force used to condense them was difficult to replace.
However, with Dante’s current ‘wealth’, he could create them like a production line if he had enough time. Ah, that even reminded him, he had not yet given the one he collected from Hao Donglei to his base AI to research, so he did just that.
If he could find a way to replicate the testing methods, he could then capture all the Internal Arts talent in the True Martial World, chip them, and then train them. At that point, he could even begin his conquest of quantum worlds and become a Quantum Lord.
He set that aside for now and began working on the Void Speaker chant. This one was more direct as the clumps of spiritual power had long been generated when he reached 2000 points in his Intelligence.
He simply gathered them into a gleaming spiritual core the same size as the three before it, then diligently filled it with space element power. This was far faster than his other magical method in terms of progression, though Dante was using a ‘cheat’ method to do this.
Soon, the core rippled with spatial power as it was perfected and lined up with the other three, a faint line of connection forming between them that seemed to enhance their power greatly.
[Magical Powers: Void Speaker Chant (Level 5: Elite Wizard (5th Rank), 5%).]
[Level 5: Elite Wizard (4th Rank)
At the Elite Wizard level, spatial manipulation evolves further. Elite Wizards can phase through objects and create temporary portals for instantaneous travel. Elemental spells can now be woven together for combination attacks, such as a flaming tornado or an ice-infused lightning strike.]
Dante immediately felt the difference between the previous realm and this one. From the 3rd to the 4th rank was one big power-up just as from the 6th to the 7th rank was such; this was in the notes of the meditation technique.
However, reading it and feeling it were two different things.
Dante got up and out of the Vitality Pool while cracking his neck in satisfaction. He received a report from his flagship that everything was ready and he nodded his head as he returned to the Solaris Horizon E7.
“Solaris AI, broadcast my words to the minds of all sapient beings around the Zero Gate using the auto-translate system,” Dante commanded the AI with a calm expression and folded his arms behind his back.
“Acknowledge, Master Dante. You can begin at any time,” Solaris AI responded immediately.
Dante breathed lightly and began speaking to the void. “All species that situate themselves around the Zero Gate, greetings. My name is The God of Technology. Like my namesake, my technological prowess has surpassed any and every power in this universe, that I can assure you.”
The various meditating beings were startled awake and looked around rapidly to see who was speaking to them and if so, whether everyone else could hear it. Looking at the similar actions and expression of those near and far, they realized that it truly was someone reaching out to all of them at once.
The very idea baffled many technologically inferior species because even the power that controlled the spots for the Mysterious Gate that also supplied them the necessary technology to survive here could not do this.
“You are all meditating in front of an entity called the Zero Gate. Judging from your collective confusion and mental responses earlier, you do not even know the name of this gate, which means that none of you have come into contact with a high-dimensional being.”
There was a hint of disdain in Dante’s voice that added pressure to the minds of all those listening. 𝘦𝘯𝑜𝑣𝘦𝑙.
“In light of what I will do next, I will give three free pieces of information to you all. This information is valueless to me but can start a crazy universal war for your various species.”
“Firstly, this Zero Gate leads to a unique space in which the method to acquire superpowers can be obtained.”
Immediately, the eyes of all the beings became bloodshot as they stared at the Mysterious… no, the Zero Gate with greed.
“Secondly, the energy you are absorbing is called Zero Energy, a byproduct? released from the gate that allows those with genuine natural-born as well as acquired superpowers to advance.”
Immediately, many froze as if this was a thunderous revelation that no one knew, which made Dante more convinced of his actions. His eyes sharpened, and he spoke the last fact with a slightly cold tone.
“Thirdly, superpowers and this gate are only the beginning of the path into the true secrets of the universe as well as how to ascend to higher dimensions.”
There was a significant reaction among the aliens once more as they began to wonder what Dante meant by the higher dimensions, while many wondered if he was a higher-dimensional being himself.
“Anyway, that’s enough. I only told you these things out of kindness. Now, all beings are to vacate the area within a million light-years in all directions around the Zero Gate in the next 7 days.” Dante laughed coldly as he said this.
“Don’t worry, I don’t plan to intimidate you with bluffs and words; I have my army to back me up. Why don’t you all take a look?” Dante finished as he forked his finger forward slightly.
Immediately, all the species around trembled as they saw space shift, in which hundreds of powerful and threatening spaceships built for combat exited warp space one by one, until a giant behemoth that dwarfed the others appeared at the forefront, the flagship of the armada itself.
Dante teleported into the observation deck of the Stellar Vanguard II and sat down in the captain’s chair. From his seat, he could see everything that was going on before him, from the perfect formation of his army to the endless fear on the faces of all species.
