Book 7: Chapter 116: Second Life (2)

“Wow…” Even though he was standing in his own corner, a corner where his name rang like thunder in the ears of others, Dyon was completely stunned.

Just a few moments ago, him and Amphorae had made it to Celestial Deer Corner. Originally, Dyon had only planned on making a quick stop here before heading directly to Soul Rend Corner, but he was frozen by what he saw.

Currently, he stood on a teleportation platform. As for Amphorae, she was hidden within his inner world. For obvious reasons, she couldn’t appear on the saint floors. Apparently, she had long since climbed to the dao floors but had likely lost the right to enter again because she was no longer affiliated with a King God Clan. However, that was a matter that would be fixed quite soon.

‘You really went all out, huh Meiying?’ Dyon was legitimately impressed.

The buildings themselves were an odd mixture of modern and ancient. It was a melding of two worlds that shouldn’t have worked, yet still filled Dyon with a sense of comfort. His every breath was infused with such spirit that he felt the celestial realm barrier rattle again. In the end, he was forced to temper it down once more, knowing that this wasn’t the right time to break through.

In the distance, Dyon could see a collection of towering glass buildings designed with intricate metals and shimmering jades. It only took a moment for Dyon to realize that Meiying took inspiration from the Elvin Kingdom for those.

In another direction, Dyon saw beautiful uses of nature. Ancient trees, spiritual flowers and fruits graced natural buildings that melded into them perfectly. Dyon had no doubt that Eli had a great hand in growing them to such a level.

Yet, the greatest attraction was a massive dome that took up the center of the Corner. It looked almost like a spider web from above, but it was made entirely of white jade. Although white jade was less expensive that moon and star jade, it was still an extravagant expenditure! Especially since the entire dome structure was over a kilometer in width and length!

Below the spider web of white jade, there was a dome of shimmer rainbow glass, the product of smelting numerous metals and thinning them to the point that they could be seen through. On one hand, they maintained the aesthetic of glass while on the other being far sturdier and more durable than normal glass!

What Dyon didn’t know was that this dome was the main attraction of the Corner. It was known as Sacharro Dome and sold all of the most valuable pieces Dyon had to offer. In fact, they had begun renting stalls to ambitious merchants while taking a share of their profits as well! In addition, Masters of the arts would often set up exhibits within it, attracting large crowds.

Dyon hadn’t implemented this idea, actually. It was Clara who decided to do so in his absence, and it was absolutely genius.

Of course, they only allowed products of a certain caliber to be sold. This way, they could maintain the high-class persona of the Corner. At the same time, they didn’t allow anything that stepped upon markets the Sapientia covered. This gave the Celestial Deer Corner a good reputation that even the Sapientia couldn’t openly complain about.

Dyon couldn’t help but subconsciously float into the air to get a better look, but who would have known that he would be scolded within his own corner?

“Hey! Get down here!” A good willed individual yelled at Dyon from below. “Flying is prohibited in Celestial Deer Corner! If you go too high, the Demon Generals will spot and punish you!”

The good willed young man shivered at the thought of the Demon Generals. They really were far too cruel and powerful.

Hearing these words, Dyon chuckled. But, he obediently came back down in the end.

“Thanks!” Dyon grinned toward his ‘savior’ and flashed forward. In an instant, it was as though he was never there.

The young man couldn’t help but rub his eyes and blink. A saint shouldn’t have the power to do what Dyon just did. Was he seeing things? That must be it…

He muttered to himself as he walked away.

“This is your empire?” Amphorae asked pensively, looking around with a glint in her eye. It seemed she found it quite beautiful. Meiying had put no less effort into Soul Rend Quadrant in comparison to the Corner.

Dyon smiled lightly. “It doesn’t deserve to be called an Empire quite yet, but it’s a decent start.”

Although he tried to remain calm, the former Cathedral City, now known as Soul City, blew his expectations out of the water once again.

Before, he had been skeptical about just how much Meiying could accomplish in just 3 years, but by the looks of it, it was he who underestimated her. He was still thinking of construction times in terms of his mortal world… For example, Sacharro Dome would have taken mortals at least a decade to construct!

However, it should have been obvious to him that cultivators could build things far quicker…

“Let’s go and take a tour before heading to Soul Rending Peak. I’m quite interested in how things are going.” Dyon said after another moment’s pause.

“Mm.” Amphorae didn’t have any objections. Technically, she knew that Dyon could layer the entire planet with his divine sense to find out what he wanted to know. But, her heart warmed knowing that he was taking it slow for her. After all, she had been stuck in a pod for more than twenty million years.

Just like that, stories of an ethereal red-headed beauty began to spread all throughout the former Planet Cathedral, now known as Planet Soul…
