Book 10: Chapter 66: God (3)

Vassal States were a method of entering an alliance that didn’t require sharing Faith. It was essentially like gaining the territory without the effort of finding and conquering the universe spirits.

However, if there were no benefits for the Vassal State, why would they join?

The first benefit was obviously protection. The status of a Vassal State was easy to introduce, but it was also easy to retrieve. If a Vassal State was unsatisfied, a single thought was enough to sever the connection between them and their protectors. This gave Vassal States leverage in asking for assistance.

But, the second benefit was that Vassal States could borrow the Faith of their supporters when they faced a troublesome issue. Of course, they didn’t have access to the full Faith prowess, or else Dyon would have already turned tail and run. After all, even with his battle prowess, he nearly lost to a mere celestial who wielded the Sapientia Clan’s Faith. How horribly would he lose if four 12^th stage Dao experts attacked him?

However, even still, the battle prowess of the four Heads shot up considerably.

“Good!”

Despite the situation, Dyon grinned like madman. This was what he was waiting for. A battle to sharpen himself.

Things had been too easy recently. For Dyon who was used to struggling every step of the way, he almost resented the feeling. Even though he knew he earned his current strength, it didn’t stop him from feeling uncomfortable.

As for the Ancient Battlefield, he didn’t dare to play around in it. How well he performed on its stage would directly decide the Fate of his wives… of his daughter. Unless he had no choice but to fight, he avoided it in that realm, not because he was scared, but rather because his greatest strength was in Commanding large armies.

But now, he could completely unleash.

These four Heads… They would be his grinding stones!

‘You Higher Existences of the 99 Universes stay put for now…’ Dyon thought, a devilishly handsome smile on his face. ‘… I’m not quite ready to play with you all yet. But, these four…’

Dyon’s palms slammed together. A rippling current of concentric pressurized wind rippled outward, devastating the grounded below.

“[Nine Suns of Armageddon]!”

Nine beautiful pearls appeared above Dyon’s head. Four of them were a gorgeous silvery white, another four were a tempting, devilish flickering black, while the very last was a gentle combination of the two.

In an instant, they expanded to the size of nine moons, looming of Planet Profound with a menacing air.

Master Ores’ facial expression immediately changed.

“PUT UP THE PROTECTIVE FORMATIONS! NOW!”

He could sense it immediately. If they didn’t act… Their entire solar system would be ripped to shreds!

“Attack!”

Prince Nova trembled below, his eyes turning red. He hardly felt Tove’s small hand slip into his own in a bid to comfort him.

The difference between them… It was actually so large!

Dyon stood in the skies like a Moon Deity. To his right, four black moons curved in a large semi-circle. To his left, four white moons mirrored their formation. Finally, directly above his head, a beautiful grey moon flickering like a silver star sat, its aura menacing beyond compare.

The original [Nine Suns of Armageddon] was about mirroring the strength of stars. The Golden Crow Clan had the ability to borrow the strength of fire stars held to directly exponentially boost their strength. However, when they were away from stars, they couldn’t use these abilities… As a result, they created this technique in order to simulation the strength of stars!

But Dyon’s version was completely different. Not only could he borrow the strength of these stars… But they held power of their own!

Dyon grinned as he watched the four soar forward. The benefits of attacking with numbers was clear, but the disadvantage was also clear… They couldn’t use their True Domains!

“[Sun God Halo].”

Dyon spoke softly as rings of black and white appeared above his palms.

If [Nine Suns of Armageddon] was an auxiliary technique, [Sun God Body] was how it was used. However, Orcus found this technique incompatible with his Death God Body, so he modified it to become extensions of himself rather than its original purpose of directly fusing with the body. The result? [Sun God Halo] and [Sun God Domain]!

[Author’s Note: If you want a deeper refresher as to what the abilities of these techniques are, feel free to re-read the concluding chapters of the Golden Flame Mystical World arc. Should be in the chapters titled ‘Core Teachings’.]

Dyon’s white ring trembled.

“Repel.”

WOOONG

A nearly insurmountable barrier appeared before the four Heads. It felt like every step forward increased their weight by millions of jin. This was too exaggerated, no!

“Like I said, I’m fragile.” Dyon smiled lightly. “It’s best if you all stay over there…”

Dyon clapped his palms together once more, but this time, the result was even more devastating.

Laws of attraction and repulsion violently interacted, seeking to shatter existence itself.

Dyon raised his right arm into the sky as his left stayed in place as though in half prayer. For a moment, the devil that rained terror upon their 99 universes suddenly became a saintly buddha.

“Don’t worry… I’ll diligently guide you all…”

A golden palm appeared in the skies. Those below could only shiver as the gentle hand touched the surface of one of Dyon’s black moons.

“… [Patience].”

Like this, a palm and moon sped forward as one…

This power… How was it anything different from a God…?
