Book 9: Chapter 120: Choice (3)
Like this, the Celestial Quadrant became the domain of the Mortal Alliance. To many cultivators, just creating a King God Clan in their lifetime would be a momentous feat. In fact, for many throughout history, this was the absolute peak that could be accomplished in a single lifetime. Only the Demon Sage and a few others managed to become infinitesimally close, only to fail at the final step.
However, Dyon had succeeded. In fact, he hadn’t conquered just 25 universes, but a total of 101.
Soon, he began to sweep through the universe spirits one after another. In just three months, he had conquered 98 universes and the Faith of the Sacharro Clan surged.
At this point, Dyon ran into a bit of a dilemma. The only remaining universes in this quadrant were Chaos Universe, Soul Universe, and his home universe.
Unfortunately, each of these universes came with problems of their own problems.
Chaos Universe’s changes couldn’t be mapped by Researcher Ton’s Big Bang Formula. After going through a catastrophic change, the universe had deviated too much from its initial path of growth. In order to map its lands, a new equation would have to be computed. The issue was that it was simply too difficult a task to accomplish.
Chaos Universe was filled with pockets of time qi of varying wave lengths and densities. Essentially, even by taking a single step, you could enter a completely new environment with a completely different timeline. Trying to account for all of these changes, especially when they weren’t static, was near impossible.
Without an appropriate formula, it would be impossible to generate a map. Without the ability to generate a map, it would be impossible to find its Universe Spirit in a short time.
Clans sometimes spent hundred to thousands of years, even more, carefully mapping out universes before using complex astrological computations to find the location of Universe Spirits. Researcher Ton had cut all of this work out for Dyon, allowing him to instantly find their locations. However, now they were facing a roadblock.
Soul Universe was another issue. At this point, Dyon still wasn’t absolutely confident in taking control of it, he knew it would be a tough battle.
In reality, this wasn’t the biggest issue. Though he wasn’t 100% confident, he was still 90%. If Soul Universe was the 100th universe on his docket, he wouldn’t even hesitate for a single moment. Unfortunately, it wasn’t his 100th… If he conquered it now, it would be his 99th…
What was the reason the Uidah never went all out to conquer Dyon’s home universe? Of course, the Pakals were one reason, but if one had power waiting for them on a platter, would you let something like that stop you? It would be worth it to take a hit from the Pakals if it meant becoming an Emperor God Clan.
The most poignant reason is that every milestone of Faith provided a unique opportunity. The stronger the universe used as a milestone, the greater boon there would be.
[Author’s Note: This was the original reason given many volumes ago before the structure of Celestial Quadrant was explained. Both are valid reasons, just that one is more important than the other].
The Uidah were reluctant to have Dyon’s home universe as their 25th because it was simply far too weak. If they entered the Emperor God Clan ranks with it, it might be better if they had just remained a King God Clan. This was how important it was.
For similar reasons, Dyon wanted Soul Universe to be his Comet Grade Empire milestone. He wanted the day he conquered it to be the founding day of his Mortal Empire as well…
Also, Soul Universe held a symbolic meaning to him. This was the place the Celestial Deer Sect once thrived before it moved to his home universe. Using it as a steppingstone to form a Comet Grade Empire had endless depths to its significance. Such seemingly useless symbolism was quite potent when it came to accumulating Faith.
Still, this truth might have been ignored by Dyon previously if he hadn’t experienced it himself. After officially becoming an Emperor God Clan, he realized that these milestones began to really count once one became an Emperor God Clan.
For his 25th Universe, Dyon chose Pakal Universe just as an experiment. Upon completion, he smiled when he realized the significance, thanking himself for his foresight.
Now, those born within the Sacharro Clan would be born with bodies about 1% stronger on average. In addition, there would be a marginal increase body cultivation talent.
Though these matters seemed small, when applied on a scale of countless individuals, the benefits would stack up. 1% was marginal at the Foundation Realm, but what about the Dao Realm? Could it be ignored then?
After conquering 50 universes, this percentage increased to 2%. After 75, it increased to 3%.
Dyon realized then just what milestone universes represented. He couldn’t just nonchalantly choose as he pleased. These matters would dictate the future of his Empire.
Finally, there was Dyon’s home universe. Not much needed to be said about this at all. How could Dyon conquer a Universe Spirit that no longer existed? His hands were completely tied…
Dyon sighed. It seemed his only path toward becoming a Comet Grade Empire would be to either attack the 99 universes, or take the Mortal Plane Federation more seriously.
