Rebirth of the Nameless Immortal God
chapter-1075

Although he had dealt with the gate, there was still one more way his enemies could easily come here: the master key teleportation arrays.

There were 30 arrays total, each of which had 10 subsidiary teleportation hubs according to the information the hamster twins gave Dyon, this meant that there were 330 arrays in total, more than enough to cover the wide expanse of this quadrant.

The good news was that the 23rd White Mother was very clever. The master key arrays only functioned when stationed in this universe. Because of this, all 30 master key arrays were in Dyon's possession.

However, the subsidiary arrays could be deployed anywhere, which meant that those of the Energy Path could directly teleport here if they so chose.

That said… If it was that easy, would the master key arrays truly be master keys? What a joke it would be if they couldn't control their own subsidiary arrays.

The reason why Elder Nova sneered when he told Dyon that they would be here the day after tomorrow was because he knew that the master key arrays were planet level arrays. He also received news that Dyon was a mere comet level expert. In his mind, Dyon had no ability to control the arrays because of this.

Unfortunately, he clearly showed off his ignorance of the soul path.

When the kitsune tried to stop Dyon and Ri from teleporting out of Central City, didn't Dyon manipulate a high-level array then?

The space the tower's inner world covered was unimaginable, it could even be compared to the size of an entire quadrant, maybe even larger. Yet, those arrays could teleport you to any location within the inner world.

What did that mean? It meant that Dyon had already manipulated a planet level array! So, what was the difference? Why could Dyon manipulate it then, but not when he needed to change the location symbols when he needed to at Soul Market?

The answer was obvious. When Dyon "manipulated" the array in Central City, all he needed to do was connect the dim portions to the lit portions. He didn't need to understand the symbols, he just needed common sense.

This time, shutting off the function of the subsidiary arrays was simply doing the exact opposite.

Elder Nova could only watch pale faced as Dyon completely diffused what could have been a disaster the moment his true body awakened.

At the moment, Dyon's main body was quite pale faced. Although the danger was resolved for now, he knew that he had less than 6 months before the gates opened. In addition, even after he repelled the essence gatherers they sent, to travel to a nearby universe could take as little as three to five years… Dyon was racking his brain to figure out how the hell he would gain the power to fight dao formation experts in just three years.

Since he woke up, he sent his 70% clone off to the master's palace to begin chipping away at the ridiculous number of techniques he needed to master.

Truth was, now that Dyon's soul had been improved to the peak celestial level, he should have been able to create a stronger clone.

One had to remember that according to his previous restrictions, before he had even broken into sainthood with his soul, he was supposed to be able to create a 75% once every other day that could survive for a week, in addition to two 50% clones, once a day, that could last for two weeks.

Yet, somehow, his best clone had dropped to a 70%, while it could last for three days at the most.

Well, it couldn't be forgotten that the Elvin Tomes didn't just describe how to awaken particular manifestations, they also treated these manifestations as techniques. How could Dyon, despite having invested no time whatsoever in the last nearly 30 years practicing any of these techniques, improve in them? It was a miracle that his clone percentage only dropped by 5%. If it was anyone else, it would have been more.

Luckily for Dyon, manifestation techniques like those found in the Elvin Tomes weren't ranked. Meaning one couldn't label them as "common" or "divine" because its level relied solely on one's understand of the manifestation.

This was good news for Dyon because the Florence family technique would drastically cut down the time he needed to master those techniques.

For example, Dyon could create an infinite number of 10% clones as long as he had the soul strength to sustain them. Despite only having 10% of his power, they had all of his comprehension because of Dyon's self-created split mind's technique. As of now, Dyon could easily split his mind ten thousand ways without any drop off in his cognitive abilities.

However, there were a few things Dyon's master was very angry with Dyon about.

"How could you use my and your martial uncle's blood essences to catalyze the Florence family technique? Reckless! Wouldn't you have gotten our affinities if you simply took the time to integrate with our blood essence?"

Dyon could only scratch the back of his head at his master's scolding.

Back during his first campaign, Dyon took the remaining 95% of his master and his martial uncle's blood essence to form two humanoid manifestations using the auxiliary ability of the Florence family technique.

To make a long story short, at the time, without anyone to properly guide him, Dyon assumed that since he had the demon sage's blood essence, his master's blood essence as well as his martial uncle's blood essence were both going to waste. So, instead of wasting them away, he used them as a catalyst to improve his affinity for wills.

As a result, Dyon gained a spiked affinity for wind, celestial and crystal wills from his master. On the other hand, he gained a spiked affinity for fire, demonic and darkness type wills from his martial uncle.

In truth, these gained affinities helped him very much, but his master still wasn't happy.

In the end, she could only sigh. She knew that Dyon had made a massive mistake, but how could she blame him? At the time, he was a kid who nothing of the martial world, so he did what he thought was right. It was her fault as a master for not being there.

"I'll explain so understand for the future." Dyon's master's tone softened considerably. She even came out in spirit form to lightly pat Dyon's cheek. "Although we couldn't provide as much strength to your body as the Demon Sage could, my and my husband's bloodlines are very special.

"You saw personally how heaven defying celestial blood was. It could force a pill into existence that had no business coming together at all. In fact, this could be said to be one of my bloodline's lesser abilities because it's a secret that I found myself after I had already died.

"As for your martial uncle's bloodline, you've already partially tapped into one of its abilities. Although you thought that it was rage that increased your battle prowess, the secret of the demon qilin bloodline is its ability to turn any emotion into power. Even the will to battle, or killing intent can raise your battle prowess.

"Demon qilins can essentially burn their blood essence with much less consequences than others. While a normal person burning their blood essence will experience a drop in cultivation, maybe even death. A demon qilin will only be bedridden for several weeks to months. A demon qilin would have to go severely overboard to kill themselves by burning their blood essence.

"You might think this ability is useless because of your Demon Emperor's Will technique's ability to boost your strength by 16 times. You might also think you don't need another strength boosting technique, but you'd be wrong. The demon qilin bloodline is more than just a strength boost, it has the bloodline manipulation techniques you need to increase your body's grade.

"In addition, whenever a Demon Qilin burns their blood essence, instead of their cultivation dropping, it increases. The more savage battles you fight, the more entrenched in war you become, the more powerful you become.

"The last ability of the demon qilin is hidden in that statement. The burning of your blood essence and surviving that pain, while also fighting continuous battles and wars, helps forge a very special kind of dao heart.

"You've already learned of the importance of a firm dao heart. While a faulty dao heart can completely destroy your battle prowess like Patia-Neva when his ice will fell from the 9th intent stage to the 1st will level, a strong dao heart can vastly improve your battle prowess.

"The most coveted secret of the demon qilin clan, the Demon Heart… That's what you gave up."
