Book 6: Chapter 402: Vats (2)
‘I wonder… Is this efficiency more or less with the tower?’
Of course, the reason Dyon was interested in this blood wasn’t only because it had great effects for his body, but also because of the second-floor formation that Evangeline unlocked for him.
According to the tower spirit, the formation was similar to the first floor formation, expect for beasts. It even allowed the use of regular blood instead of blood essence.
However, listening to the explanation of the twins, Dyon became much less excited about it.
‘Maybe?…’ Dyon’s mind went into overdrive.
‘What would happen if I infused Primordial Energy into this regular blood? Is it too late? Or could it still improve?’
Primordial Energy was something that Dyon had an obscene amount of. Although he still didn’t understand just how it happened, the Energy Core, as though it was programmed, took with it the Primordial Energy of the entire universe before it left with Dyon.
This was, obviously, something Dyon chose not to dwell on. He didn’t like speculating about things he didn’t have enough information to figure out, and this was one of those things.
Still, that didn’t change the fact that he had more of that ancient energy than he could use in his entire lifetime. After all, that Primordial energy didn’t just represent all of the energy for that given time… To suck in the entire energy of a universe meant taking in all of the energy it prepared for its entire lifetime, which amounted to trillions upon trillions of years worth.
Just that thought alone proved how heaven defying the Energy Core was…
That aside, Dyon knew that Primordial Energy was the key factor in the twins hatching. Not only that, but according to the entity, even the First White Mother believed that it was the key returning their bloodline back to its origins.
There was no need for Dyon to waste time learning Ethereal Permeation because he had all the Primordial Energy a person could ever ask for.
Dyon slowly walked along the path, scanning the walls from afar.
What surprised him was that there were beasts etched into the wall he hadn’t expected to find. Of course, there was the vat of deer blood with the likeness of a deer etched above it… There was an ape, and a tiger, and a turtle, but there were other more shocking and vivid images that seemed to exude more powerful auras from their blood.
Nearer the end of the world, there was a fox etched to the left. However, it looked very different from kitsune.
While his mother in law’s true form was no larger than two palm lengths, this fox was as large and imposing as his master’s true form.
Dyon could still remember when he first entered the Celestial Deer Sect ruins. After the mischievous and newly born Little Black was caught by him, the imposing aura of his master appeared in the sky like a heavenly deity.
Her true form had been hundreds of meters long, and the tufts of swirling gold fur amid the soft white made Dyon feel incomparably relaxed despite his certainty that she could kill him with a thought.
The fox etched into the wall was very similar. Despite having only a single tail, it seemed far above what a kitsune could match.
Dyon had always wondered why the kitsune were a head of a mere 30th ranked quadrant while dragons controlled the 2nd ranked. Were they not both supreme level beasts?
But, seeing how lacking they were in comparison to this Celestial Fox… Dyon suddenly understood.
Still, the aura continued to grow more imposing as Dyon walked.
To the right, there was a mastiff, with a mane as thick as a lion and a momentum as fierce as a dragon.
Just like its celestial beast relatives, it was entirely bathed in white fur that exuded a palpable pride. Dyon almost felt as though the depictions were becoming more and more life-like.
Even further along were the first two birds Dyon had seen among the Celestial beasts.
To the left was a prideful bird that held its head high above all as its beautiful shimmering feathers fanned outward… A Celestial Peacock.
To the right was a bird emitting a killing intent that made Dyon’s heart skip a beat. Unlike the Peacock, it seemed to fly through the skies, its wings spreading majestically… A Celestial Falcon.
Suddenly, as Dyon lifted his foot to proceed forward, he felt a roar pierce through the skies causing his head to snap forward. His heart beat quickened, feeling the air thicken to the point where it felt as though his every move was taken in water.
‘A Celestial Lion…’
After witnessing such fantastical creatures of the martial world, whether it be the multi-tailed kitsune, or the mighty qilins, or the prideful dragons, to see such… normal creatures depicted in such a grandiose light… It was truly an odd cognitive dissonance.
Still, there were two creatures left, one of which carried such a magnificent aura that Dyon felt his analysis of these beasts as “normal” was more stupid than anything else.
It almost looked like a dragon, glistening with beautiful scales as it soared through the skies. However, Dyon was absolute certain that it was a fish… But since when were fish so imposing? So awe inspiring?
Its fins, all eight of them, were more like the delicate, crystalline wings slicing through the air completely unimpeded… A Celestial Kun Peng…
