Book 8: Chapter 42: Five Species (3)

Unlike what Dyon believed, the blue whales fell under his command with absolute ease. Even the three colonies that came to their aid faired no better. The moment Dyon realized that his Presence could be used without reserve, these so-called beasts didn’t stand a single chance.

In just a half hour, Dyon captured 3 warrior colonies for a total of 36 blue whales. However, this realization made him apprehensive.

At the moment, he and Ri had exited the oceans, catching their breath on the golden yacht above.

Dyon helped Ri get rid of the excess cold qi still bothering her.

“The good news is that cold qi can’t be absorbed just because you want to absorb it. My ice will is only a step away from the half-step dao realm, yet I couldn’t handle it all even with your protective measures. The bad news is that the blue whales are too weak to Presence. If we take them into battle like this, they’ll be rendered useless in an instant.”

Dyon nodded in agreement. Though the problem was resolved so easily, it was more of a bad thing than a good. If they could deal with it so simply, that meant others could too. If they wanted to rely on the enemy’s lack of information, then that means it would only work once.

After going through so much trouble to capture these blue whales, they could only use them one time? How was that worth it at all?

“Something’s fishy.” Dyon said with a frown. “Presence is rooted in the body. How can beasts with such tyrannically large bodies be so susceptible to Presence? Even if they don’t have Presence of their own, they should be able to resist at least somewhat.”

“Maybe it’s not just Presence.” Ri supplemented. “They had to deal with fear of The Seal and my natural bloodline suppression of them as well. It might have been a combination of those three things.”

Although Ri said this, she knew that it was grasping at straws. The blue whales were mere common grade beasts, how hard would it be to find an earth grade beast to suppress them? Even for middle rung clans such a task would be too simple.

Even if The Seal wouldn’t necessary be easy to replicate, who was to say that weaker treasures wouldn’t work as well?

Suddenly Dyon brought his fist to his palm. “I’ve got a crazy idea.”

Ri tilted her head.

“Remember the Daiyu Ancestor?” Dyon asked with a grin.

“You mean?” Ri’s eyes widened. “But the [Dragon Refining Arts] you got from the second trial… I thought you said that you would need to fully comprehend Runic Vein Theory before you knew if it was real or not?”

“Originally, yes.” Dyon grinned. “But, I don’t need to now. We have the Demon Sage, don’t we? He has more understanding of Runic Vein Theory than I could ever imagine. If we combine the [Dragon Refining Arts] and the Dragon Souls we exploited from the Daiyu Ancestor, what are the odds that that would fix the weakness of the blue whales?”

Ri’s heartbeat quickened slightly.

Who in their right mind would waste something as precious as a Dragon Soul, even if they were just Bronze Grade ones, one a mere common grade beast? Maybe only Dyon would be so wild!

“With the tyrannical bodies of the blue whales, there’s more than a 99% likelihood that they’d survive the infusion of Dragon Soul.” Ri said. “I have no doubt that as long as it succeeds, their weakness to Presence would be quickly fixed.”

Dyon beamed. He had had millions of Bronze Dragon Souls and thousands of Silver Dragon Souls just sitting around for years now.

Originally, he had wanted to give them to his Demon Generals. If they could all fuse Dragon Souls to their pseudo domains, what kind of grand scene would that be? However, Dyon changed his mind…

The [Dragon Refining Arts] required humans to delve into a deep level of comprehension. This was why King Viserion was stuck at such a low stage for such a long time.

However, there was another path available in the [Dragon Refining Arts] as well. If one’s body was tyrannical enough, comprehension was wholly unnecessary. Obviously, the body of humans could never match the body of beasts, especially not beasts like the blue whales who could swat celestials to death without an ounce of cultivation.

To Dyon [Dragon Refining Arts] was completely useless now. It would only needlessly interfere with his already tyrannical titan blood. However, to the blue whales, it would be akin to giving them a path to Heaven!

Dyon and Ri directly spent the next few weeks plundering Earth’s oceans. It wasn’t long until they found just what it was the blue whales had been fighting, but unfortunately for those mighty creatures, they shared the same pitiful weakness.

There were five major races. The rest were too weak or didn’t have special abilities Dyon could be bothered to invest in.

The first were the Blue Whales.

Then there were the Seahorses that Dyon directly tied to the legendary Hippocampus, half horse, half fish. Unfortunately, these Seahorses were common grade beasts while the Hippocampus was of the supreme grade. Still, though they weren’t as large as the blue whales, they were still several kilometers tall.

The next creatures were Sea Serpents. They were massive underwater pythons with beautiful, reflective scales ranging from green to blue. Some were even purple.

Then there were the Jellyfish. They shimmered with gorgeous rainbow colors, but their conductive abilities definitely gave Dyon and Ri the most trouble.

Finally, the last was a species Dyon almost mistook for completely harmless. As a result, he nearly drove him and Ri to their deaths. They resembled Coral Reefs and Dyon found them in the deep recesses of Earth’s Oceans, a place that had heat far surpassing what Dyon had ever experienced before. In the mortal world of the past, they were known as Fire Corals.

From what Dyon knew, although the Fire Corals known to his mortal world could cause burns and scars, as long as they weren’t excessive, it wouldn’t be deadly. In fact, human contact could actually result in the death of Fire Corals themselves.

However, these evolved Fire Corals were nothing like their ancestors… Not only could they move of their own according… Dyon lost his right hand and forearm underestimating them.
