Reaper of the Martial World

Book 10: Chapter 123: Bring (2)

“You… You want to offend our Sapientia Clan as well?”

Of the Sapientia here, there were eight. To call them youths was inappropriate. In fact, they were a generation ahead of Dyon. Though, since they were Sapientia, they were respected wherever it was they went.

In the Tower Quadrants, the Sapientia were merely scholars. However, in the Outer Powers, their image took a drastic turn. Though they were still scholars and often took the side of neutrality, they had also displayed their grand prowess many times.

Within the Tower Quadrants, the Sapientia never needed to defend their territory. After all, many of their branches took the initiative to subordinate themselves to greater powers, while their main quadrant was protected due to the previously held taboo on inter quadrant warfare.

However, in the Outer Powers, there were obviously no such protections and the Sapientia stood alone. Over the years, how could there not be examples of Outer Power disputes and wars…?

Whenever such wars occurred, the Sapientia would always strike a resounding victory! In the long history of the Mortal Plane, there was not even one account of a Sapientia defeat!

As a result, though they maintained scholarly airs, the Sapientia were secretly feared by many, and rightfully so. There was a reason that only they were worthy of being a standalone power without the need for an Alliance!

“Offend your Sapientia Clan?” Dyon said lightly.

With a thought, what remained of the wisp of Oshire’s soul appeared in his hand.

On the Mortal Plane, souls had no forms of their own. It was only upon transcending that one’s soul would take on their likeness. As a result, Oshire, who had been a mere celestial, had a soul wisp that looked no different from a blob of light.

However… Every soul had unique fluctuations. For those deep within the dao realm, ascertaining these fluctuations was only a matter of focusing for a single moment.

In an instant, not only did these eight Sapientia know that this was the soul of a Sapientia, they also discerned by the purity of its fluctuations that this was the soul of a Sapientia Royal!

Without allowing them to respond, Dyon’s hand squeezed, shattering Oshire’s soul without remorse or blinking even an eye.

Dyon had saved this soul from the very beginning because he didn’t want the Sapientia to be aware of Oshire’s death. But more and more, Dyon was finding that he didn’t care about the consequences any longer. Those who slighted him would die. There was no longer room for negotiation in his heart. He didn’t care who he offended.

“Your Sapientia Clan offended me long ago. As for you eight… Since you wanted to kill me… You can just die as well.”

Dyon’s qi swept forward. Caught completely off guard and not thinking that Dyon would dare to do such a thing, none of the eight were fast enough to mobilize their Faith…

Eight heads spun into the air, fountains of blood permeating the populated streets.

Time seemed to freeze over.

In the minds of those here, the Sapientia were untouchable… Even more untouchable than the Nephilim.

If one of the Nephilim died, it was an irrelevant matter. The Giant race were similar to the Dragons in that they placed personal prowess over all. If one of theirs died, as long as there was no underhanded tricks, they wouldn’t mobilize their forces. At worst, someone with ties to the deceased would look for revenge personally.

However, the Sapientia were different. Though it wasn’t as though they’d mobilize an army, they most definitely would seek out an explanation for this matter and respond appropriately to whatever answer it was they received.

Since the Sapientia often maintained neutrality, they very rarely took action. But when they did… It was akin to thunder and lightning ravaging the Outer Powers.

“As for the matters of the Sapientia interfering with my affairs… I’ll be sure to ask for an explanation personally.”

A cold breath swept through the Sprite Capital. This young man… He was too arrogant, was he not?

In that moment, a sweeping change took place.

Dyon’s main body trembled.

“Huh…?” Dyon’s eyes blinked in confusion. Even Alauna backed away in slight shock. A moment later, she understood what was happening even before her father did, a surprising matter for Dyon.

“Dad… These are signs of an undefeatable spirit awakening!”

Dyon cocked an eyebrow. He had long since heard of this undefeatable spirit, but for some reason, he himself had never touched upon it.

What Dyon didn’t know what that the quality of one’s undefeatable spirit was dependent on too many things. In fact, it wasn’t just he who wasn’t fully aware, but the greatest powers on the Mortal Plane were completely in the dark as well.

However, today, Dyon had shed a final aware even he wasn’t aware.  

It had been too long since he was truly unbridled. The more he gained, the more timid he seemed to become.

Of course, for Dyon who had started at such a high level of arrogance from the beginning, his dulling blade was still incomparably sharp in the views of others… However, Dyon himself knew that he was slowly losing him.

It wasn’t until today that he truly threw the chains that had been slowly drowning him away.

The pulsing of his Dao Heart grew brilliantly. A moment later, the whole of the Mortal Plane began to quake.
