Book 7: Chapter 288: Core Teachings (2)
As things stood now, if Dyon decided to name himself the second ranked defensively among those of his cultivation, he was almost willing to bet his life that no one would dare to claim first place. The effect of having two of the top three defensive constitutions was far too potent. This was especially so when Dyon activated his Titan Emperor’s Will or used Bold type energy.
Knowing this, it was pretty obvious why Dyon would be unwilling to waste his time learning a defensive technique. However, this one was different.
When used in conjunction with [Nine Suns of Armageddon], this technique becomes one of the most dangerous ones in all of existence.
The basic use of [Sun God Body] was to absorb flames. Once these flames are absorbed, they’re directly translated into your strength. For the Golden Crow Clan that had once built their Clans atop of Stars, this made them nigh undefeatable in their home territory.
‘How did such a Clan decline…’ Dyon couldn’t understand it. The more he read, the more shocked he became. To turn the power of stars into your own… That was ridiculous!
One had to know that even a higher existence might not survive the temperatures at the center of a star. A dao expert might be able to withstand surface temperatures within a few hundred miles, but that was their limit. It had to reiterated, once again, that the only reason Dyon and the various Fire Dao geniuses were so comfortable so close to the hottest star in the tower quadrants was precisely because so many dao experts were shielding them.
Afterward, the trial to enter this Golden Flame Mystical World mitigated the heat of the star with a barrier, only using a portion of it as a test.
With this technique, if one was nearby a star, they could use the cultivation of a higher dao expert to battle a peak dao expert! This may seem like only a single tier of difference, but the reality was that the gap between a higher dao expert and a peak dao expert was akin to more than five times the gap between a lower celestial and a peak celestial!
However, after this technique was created, the Golden Crow Clan remained unsatisfied. The requirement of having a star nearby was good, but they desired more flexibility. This led to the creation of the [Nine Suns of Armageddon] technique. Although using it was still weaker than having a true star, it could replicate at least 70% of the [Sun God]’s true power.
Of course, Dyon wasn’t interested in this technique just for this purpose. Firstly, he already had a technique that explosively increased his strength in Titan Emperor’s Will. In fact, even for his subordinates, they had Demon Emperor’s Will. After unlocking Titan Emperor’s Will, Dyon had given all of his Demon Generals the full copy of Demon Emperor’s Will.
Within one of these booklets was Orcus’ diary. It was because of this diary that Dyon understood Orcus’ thought process behind stowing away his skeleton army.
One thing Orcus always lamented was that fire had always been tied to the breath of life. The creation of fire was tied to the true awakening of all races, especially the human race. It represented hope and innovation. Due to this fact, Orcus’ Death God Body always clashed violently with his Golden Crow bloodline and he found it difficult to balance them.
Of course, there were always flames like the Dark Phoenix’s Death Flame, but those were the exception, not the rule. For Orcus, who was born with innate golden flames, he didn’t have the luxury of having a Death Flame.
In the end, Orcus found it difficult to use [Sun God Body] at all. Infusing such flames with his death qi ridden body was too tall a mountain to climb.
After years of lamenting the fact he was unable to use his Clan’s most powerful technique, Orcus decided to finally do something about it. Over millions of years, he slowly modified the technique.
Using the condensing and concentration characteristics of [Sun God Body], Orcus began to apply the technique externally. Instead of infusing the power into his body, he split the technique down two new paths. The first was what he called [Sun God Halo] and the second was what he called [Sun God Domain].
[Sun God Halo] explosively increased the power of any technique by applying Star Power – a different concept from Star Qi. This was the case even for techniques completely incompatible with the fire dao. In fact, this didn’t even require Dyon’s ability to perfectly fuse wills either!
[Sun God Domain] was exactly what it sounded like. It infused the fire dao into your Domain regardless of whether it was compatible or not. By relying on the domineering nature of Star Power, one was able to explosively increase the dominion they had over their Domain.
When concepts of [Sun God Halo] and [Sun God Domain] were put together, especially with the [Nine Suns of Armageddon] technique, one was able to explosively increase their attacking power without putting any strain on their bodies at all! The only stamina drain would be that of the soul due to the control of the fire dao these techniques would require.
The best part was that if one was capable of perfect fusion like Dyon was, the power he could display would be even greater! Once Dyon mastered this technique, his use would be far more agile and versatile than even Orcus, its creator!
