Rebirth of the Nameless Immortal God

chapter-1179
Dyon's urgency reached a new level when the kitsune left the range of his relay array. That could only mean that they were already on Earth!
The voices around Dyon were drowned out completely as he focused on his task, but he could vaguely hear Ri telling her father that she had no intention to leave.
However, Ri soon saw an array appear in front of her as well. But, this one changed her appearance drastically from a world-toppling beauty, to an average Elvin girl. Her ears became more defined, the oriental features she inherited from her mother disappeared, and her bestial aura became overshadowed by a natural energy.
This action of Dyon's told the three exactly what was happening: the kitsune were coming!
"Go!" Dyon's gruff voice sounded out. "He doesn't know who I am, I will survive."Dyon couldn't move an inch. The scale of what he was trying to do was simply far too enormous. But, he was their only chance.
In the next instant, Dyon reached out toward the three academies. As expected, there were hundreds more elves within their pocket dimensions, but forming hundreds of arrays within another dimension entirely was too much for Dyon.
The last time he tried to do this, he had just escaped from Focus Academy and tried to project a concealment array outside of his Life Ring. However, he passed out unconscious before he could finish the feat and fell into a coma for more than half a year…
This time, the task was far more taxing.
The earth beneath their feet began to tremble as an oppressive aura appeared on the planet. Despite still being millions of miles away, the mere presence of Head Void caused the Earth to quake.
Blood flowed from Dyon's ears as Ri was dragged away by her father. Three arrays began to form within the academy pocket dimensions while their counterparts were saved within the Demon Sage Tower.
With a final roar, the entrance to the three pocket dimensions collapsed, trapping hundreds of them within. A moment later, the arrays floating before thousands of elves flashed, causing them to disappear and reappear in the basement floor of the Elvin Palace.Without a chance to breathe, King Acacia quickly ushered them toward the swirling blue portal that led to their tombs.
Thousands rushed in as quickly as they could, yet the pace still seemed too slow.
By the time the final elf disappeared into the portal and King Acacia turned to go and get Dyon, the aura of a dao formation expert suddenly violently crashed onto the Elvin Island, causing the King and Ri who clung to his hand to violently cough up blood.
"No!" Ri wanted to pull out of her father's grasp, but even without improving, King Acacia was still a second-grade middle celestial. With a last complicated look toward the room Dyon was sprawled in, King Acacia dragged his daughter into the portal, shutting it behind him.
Dyon violently coughed up blood as he lay on the ground, completely devoid of energy. Even for him, creating thousands of teleportation arrays, even if the distance was relatively short, was too much.
The speed of a dao formation expert, especially one specializing in void will, was much too quick. The fact he appeared above the Elvin Island already meant that it was too late. Had he not concealed Ri's bestial aura and appearance, he would have definitely stopped the tomb portal from closing. Plus, Head Void had already sealed the space, even if Dyon had the energy to teleport away, he couldn't.
Still, Dyon grinned. This kitsune bastard wouldn't get what he wanted.
A moment later, the roof of the palace was ripped away, exposing Dyon's sweaty and panting body to the eight emotionless kitsune above.
Dyon's eyes looked up emotionlessly, but the smirk on his features said it all.
The truth of the matter was that it wouldn't have been impossible for Dyon to split his mind just one more way and teleport himself to the front of the Elvin Tombs so that King Acacia could drag him in. The problem with that would be the pocket dimensions that the three academies were nestled within.
When Dyon first came to the Elvin Kingdom, he had thought that it was so cool that they have separate Mystical Worlds for their academy grounds, but at the moment, he hated it very much.
The reason Dyon stayed behind was to make sure that the kitsune didn't use their void will specialty to break into the now closed off Mystical Worlds. If they came to the Elvin Kingdom and found no one, Head Void would use his abilities to diligently search, and at that point, him finding those pocket dimensions would only be a matter of time.
For the sake of those students, Dyon had to find a way to distract their attention away from the Elvin Kingdom. Plus, his Uncle Acacia was still the Headmaster of Acacia Academy. The unfortunate part was that Dyon hadn't thought far enough ahead to have a plan…
'First and foremost, I have to recover my soul strength.' Thinking to this point, Dyon hated his home universe even more. With the Energy Core, he should have been able to do so relatively quickly. But, the energy here was so scarce that his attempts were pitifully slow.
Of course, he had the energy from the bull-bird dung, however, that energy also needed to be processed into soul energy. It didn't seem like that world his constitution was connected to had readily available soul energy like Soul Rend Quadrant did.
All of these things took time to go over, however less than a fraction of a second had passed since the kitsune ripped the roof of the palace away.
"Let me help you. The Queen told me I should." Dyon heard the delicate voice of a very familiar and arrogant little fairy princess, Isla. "Your soul is very big though… It will take me at least a 5 min even with all this energy you're funneling in."
In shock, Dyon's mind turned toward his Mind's Eye to see Isla fluttering about. Delicate magical circles floated around her as her gold butterfly wings flapped gently.
Dyon suddenly felt that his drained mental energy had recovered by more than 50% in an instant, but what was even more shocking was that the little fairy was converting energy into soul energy faster than even his divine grade Soul Rend technique!
'Ri is in another dimension entirely but the familiar summoned by her constitution can act autonomously? Just what kind of constitution is Elvin Queen's Reign?'
"Head Void," One of the kitsune turned toward the only dao formation expert in their midst, "It seems that this boy is the only one here. I can't sense anyone else."
"Do you think I don't know this?" Head Void sent a sharp gaze toward the speaker, causing him to involuntarily take a step back.
The pressure of a dao formation expert descended from the skies, landing directly on Dyon. "Tell me what I want to know, and maybe you'll have the chance to live."
Dyon remained silent. With his Presence, energy suppression, even of the dao formation grade, no longer worked on him. Unless Head Void funneled enigmatic energy directly into his body, he'd still have full range of motion. However, Dyon had no intention of allowing them to realize such a thing early on.
"Where are the elves?" Head Void asked sharply.
"I don't know." Dyon answered simply.
Head Void's brow furrowed. A mere essence gatherer dared to answer him so casually?
"Do you want to die?" Another Void kitsune stepped forward, roaring toward Dyon.
Dyon flinched for the sake of keeping up appearances, satisfying the vanity of the kitsune trying to get back into Head Void's good books.
"I'm human, how could I know where the Elves are?" Dyon said in a weak voice.
The kitsune blinked before they realized that Dyon was in fact telling the truth. However, Dyon was inwardly smirking.
Head Tudo was a beast with cultivation far deeper than any of these eight, yet with her dull senses as a beast, albeit partly due to her bias, she completely misjudged Dyon. Knowing this, Dyon didn't believe that any of them could see through him. Aside from being more handsome than usual, there was nothing special about him.
"Do you take us for fools?" Head Void growled. He normally would have swatted this child to death by now, but Dyon was his only clue to finding the elves. He was certain that there were four auras just moments ago, but then three vanished the moment his made his way above the castle, which was why he ripped the roof away.
"What could a normal human have to do in a Palace clearly built by the elves?"
"I said I didn't know where they went, but I never said that I've never been affiliated with the elves." Dyon spoke timidly. However, if one paid attention to something other than his tone, you would be able to sense the mocking disdain hidden within his sentence structure. "The elves have numerous failsafes in place, not to mention the ability to tell the future by sacrificing lives. My role in the castle is no different from a male prostitute."
Looking at Dyon's appearance, the kitsune couldn't help but believe his words. Plus, they also knew that the elves were an ancient race, and had also heard about their ability to sacrifice a life for the sake of telling the future.
Dyon coughed, his voice hesitating slightly. "I am duty bound to tell you this due to the seal on my soul, however. The reason I couldn't move before you entered is for this reason as well. The King told me to tell you that… You'd never see Aki Void again if you continued these attacks…"
