Reaper of the Martial World

Book 7: Chapter 69: Infernal (3)

While all of these things were happening, Dyon had long since left his home universe. The only matters he left unsettled were that of the remainder of the Mortal Clan, but Dyon didn’t think much of it.

Firstly, they were given the opportunity to leave and chose not to. Secondly, even if the kitsune came once more, the task of finding them without knowing that they were there was simply impossible. Earth was too large. And, lastly, he wanted them to fester for a bit. He wanted them to understand just how much of a dead end their way of living was and that the only way to do that was to show them the difference between the 36 geniuses and them.

As for the matters of the Sapientia, Dyon was confident that Ri had handled it well. Although there might be some remaining animosity due to his decision, it was all he could do.

Ever since he stepped into the martial world, he had a bad feeling about the Sapientia that just wouldn’t go away. This bad feeling was only reaffirmed after the hamster twins gave him the history the Master Key teleportation arrays. Obviously, even his Master’s ancestor felt an uncomfortable aura circulating around the Clan.

What was odd to Dyon, though, was the fact he hadn’t sensed Connery Sapientia during his entire stay. Considering his history with the Main Branch Head, this was a bit too weird. Still… It made things easier. Maybe Madeleine’s parents had dealt with him.

This aside, due to lack of funds, Dyon had no choice but to power his demon sage tower with celestial stones, severely slowing down his progress toward Chaos Universe. In the end, it took him almost three months just to make it to the entrance.

As expected, he found a dormant and unused gate on an abandoned planet. There were no enemies on the other side, so for obvious reasons, there was no need to have inhabitants on this planet either. Other than a few emptied energy stone mines, the planet had nothing of note.

Dyon sighed. ‘I need to invest in finding some energy stone mines…’

He knew very well that large clans weren’t always business savvy. Most of the time, their wealth came from obnoxiously large mines. Unfortunately, the energy of this universe was so scarce that such things were rare.

As for Soul Rending Peak, their mines had been emptied out as well. The culprit? Likely those of the 99 universes. Why would they leave resources lying around?

Of course, a universe was large. It was impossible to have emptied out every energy stone mine. However… The process of finding them was simply too difficult.

Dyon’s divine sense stretched 100 000 or so kilometers, but that wasn’t even enough to cover 1% of a single solar system, let alone a galaxy or an entire universe. This was why such things relied on specialized treasures and experts, things Dyon simply didn’t have…

Well, he did have an expert: Meiying. The issue was that Meiying’s cultivation was too poor for her will to be used on such a large scale. It wouldn’t be until she became a dao formation expert and graduated her feng shui compass will to a dao that she could use star maps to locate resources.

Unfortunately, due to the fact the gate was closed, Dyon had to wait another three months for it to open and allow him to enter. By the end of this half of year stint, Emytheus and Ri were just making themselves known.

As for Dyon, he was completely focused on the task at hand, mentally preparing himself for what he would face in the universe of chaos.

Yet… Nothing could have prepared him for the world he saw.

Dyon exited the other side of the gate only to find a world of fiery hell.

In a normal universe, there would be an expanse of dark space with stars twinkling in the distance. However, there was none of that here.

For one, the planet the other side of the gate was meant to connect to had become nothing more than a broken piece of rock barely ten square meters. It floated around the space without clear direction, colliding with solar currents and bending to their will.

The distance, instead of having a black hue, was filled with an eerie dark red color as though someone had dyed the night sky with blood. In fact, the space seemed to dance with a black-red fog that sometimes behaved like the hottest flame in the world, and other times behaved like a cold gas.

Dyon had to immediately coat the beast babies in his white flames after they began to whimper. Although they were almost a year old now, they were still babies. Not just normal babies, but celestial beasts who were incredibly sensitive to impurities like the heavy chaos will in this universe. Despite being within the tower, protected by a shield, they still couldn’t take it.

“Just what happened here…” Dyon muttered to himself.

Although he said this, Dyon was partially aware… According to lore, the final battle of the phoenixes occurred here. Supreme beasts of the highest grade fought against the Dark Phoenixes to the very end… This was also the place Amethyst transcended after leaving her legacy to the Belmonts.

“Be careful Dyon.” Little Yang shivered along with the beast babies. “We sense a lot of embryonic infernal beasts here… There are easily millions of them, if not more…”
