Reaper of the Martial World

Book 11: Chapter 39: Geniuses (3)

The battle cauldron descended from the skies, revealing the form of two blue pills wafting a frosty fog.

Depending on the level of reinforcement, a different degree of tribulation would descend. In the case of a one time reinforced pill, just a single strike of lightning would fall. For a two times reinforced pill, two sets of two strikes would fall.

Since there were nine sets of nine strikes for a total of 81 this time, this was without a doubt a nine times reinforced pill on the level of a half-immortal grade pill.

In truth, this could be seen as partly in thanks due to Ascelyn’s blood. The ice phoenix Overlord first entered the Overlord realm by the easiest means: the qi facet. After this, he continued to choose the body facet hoping to reach the two facet Overlord realm through it. Since he was a beast, after all, this was likely the best choice as the comprehension facet was the most difficult excluding the soul facet.

Thanks to this, his blood was infinitesimally close to the Overlord realm, helping the quality of the pill to improve.

“Is this your Endowment of Multiplicity? How magical.” Madeleine said softly.

Dyon nodded. “It only seems to work when I refine half immortal grade pills. It’s a shame, if it worked for lower grade pills, some things would be much easier.”

“It’s probably because lower grade pills aren’t capable of communicating with the heavenly dao to the same extent, so it’s impossible to evoke an Endowment through them. But maybe if you reach a realm of returning to simplicity… Then it’ll work with any pill you refine.”

Dyon’s eyes glowed at these words. Sometimes he forgot his wife was a cultivation genius few could match. But her advice made this clear and obvious to him once more.

“Here.” Dyon said with a slightly evil grin, handing his wife one of the pills.

“There’s only one reason you look at me like that, you’re getting more bad.” Madeleine said with a teasing expression.

“I’m innocent.” Dyon said righteously. “It’s just that in order to refine this pill properly, your body is still a bit too lacking. You’ll need to siphon off my vital qi in order to succeed. It just so happens that dual cultivating is the most efficient method.”

Madeleine shook her head with a content smile, sinking into Dyon’s arms as they vanished from their position in the sky. It seemed the couple had completely forgotten about the chained ice phoenix.

As the husband and wife pair spent a few lovely moments together, the Ancient Battlefield had been sent into yet another uproar.

Last time, it was the centaurs. But, this was something many could still ignore. Though it was shocking for such a powerful clan to be eradicated, they were still ants in the grand scheme of things.

But now, the mighty Phoenix Clan had actually had their tail stepped on! Not only this, but one of their Overlords had gone missing! To make matters worse, this missing overlord actually had a great chance of reaching the second facet! To say he was valuable to the phoenix clans as a whole was an understatement, yet he was gone, just like that.

All the phoenix clan was aware of was the visage of a couple with violet hair and oppressive fire dao. This was all those who survived the ordeal could relay…

Unfortunately, there were simply none that fit this description on the Ancient Battlefield. But that was when another piece of information was released that sent a massive wave through the prison of failed clans… The couple actually gave off the qi signature of Invaders!

Suddenly, the discourse within the Ancient Battlefield completely shifted. This should have been their opportunity to leave this prison, to enter the mortal plane once more… However, with each passing day, more and more monsters of the mortal plane were appearing… Wasn’t it supposed to be easy for them this time around?!

One has to understand that the prisoners of the Ancient Battlefield can’t just sneak off when the second phase began and find a small land for themselves to live in peace. If this was possible, how many would truly fight at all?

If one doesn’t claim a territory during the second phase as a former prisoner, once the second phase ends, you would be fiercely rejected by the Heavens, leaving the only result as death.

However, how difficult was it to find universe spirits? It was nearly impossible without thousands of years of research and calculations. Not everyone was like Dyon and had Immortal Sense capable of blanketing a universe.

What did this mean? The only way to succeed was by using the second phase’s rules to your advantage and defeating a ruling Clan or Sect. Due to the special rules in place for this period, the ownership of the universe spirit would be automatically transferred over.

What was the point of saying all this? It was to say that if the enemy they thought was so easily had suddenly becoming so enigmatic and powerful, how would they dare easily descend for the second phase?

Once they chose to descend… There was no going back! It was either they grasped victory, or they died a horrible death!

For the first time, panic overwhelmed the Ancient Battlefield, creeping up even into the 12 Overlord Clans and reaching the ears of the 13 three facet Overlords…

Unfortunately, the torrent of bad news kept flooding in.

First it was a blue haired elf. Then a violet haired phoenix bloodline human. Then it became a nine tailed void kitsune. Then a red haired, crimson winged angel…

Geniuses of a level far beyond what the Ancient Battlefield could even imagine cropped up one after another, descending them into chaos.

Not even 5 years into the first phase, and more than half of the top Clans below the 12 Overlord Clans were completely annihilated.

All the while, no one noticed that the southern region was slowly being unified by a power led by races of creatures no one had ever seen before.

A mighty race who called themselves The Bronzed. Another that called themselves the Cobras. And the final that called themselves the Emperor Dragons…
