Rebirth of the Nameless Immortal God

chapter-1201
The token in Kaori's hand was known as 'Ancestor's Command'. Every clan was given three, regardless of rank. A command given forth with the use of this token was to be followed on penalty of death with few restrictions!
There weren't even records of when this token was used last, yet it had appeared here once more.
"From this day forth, the Supreme Kitsune Clan will go into seclusion. When next we see the light, the world will know of our strength!"
**
If Dyon had known about the happenings of the kitsune clan, he would have known that a formidable opponent had stepped up to the plate. This singular move by Kaori rendered all of Dyon's plans for the three kitsune geniuses absolutely useless. In fact, even when the kitsune clan reappeared in the world, they would never welcome Aki, Masako and Gin back… Not without proper precautions.What all of this did prove was that the Shruti would likely be wholly unprepared.
In Dyon's estimation, it was unacceptable for the Shruti to not have known that such a large number of elders of the Kitsune were making a move, but this was the truth of matter. They had no idea!
While the infrastructure of the kitsune was terrible, the Shruti were even worse. The consequences of such a thing would become very obvious almost too soon for recovery…
That said, Dyon wasn't thinking about any of this, yet, somehow, pursuing the perfect solution toward said problem. This wouldn't be in time to help against the kitsune, but it would certainly be in time to deal with similar situations in the future.
Much to Stella's disgust, Dyon was rodent hunting.
**
"What the hell do you mean you want to catch them?" Stella looked at Dyon as though she was staring down a madman. Despite being a whole head shorter, one might think she was actually taller than this uncle of hers."I mean exactly what I said." Dyon continued to grin.
At this point, even Sarid began to frown. "Uncle, those rodents are common grade beasts, how could they possibly be useful? They're just a waste of space and energy. It's better to kill them all."
Sarid felt odd calling Dyon God Father, so he settled for calling him Uncle just like Stella. However, his words weren't any less true.
Within the mortal realm, a normal animal like a cat or dog wouldn't be considered even lower common grade in the martial world. Of course, all of those "normal" animals were now extinct, but this was beside the point.
What Stella and Sarid disdained as common grade beasts could rival bear from the mortal realm if they were of the lower common grade. A middle common grade beast could defeat a grizzly bear easily.
These common grade rodents had about the power of a foundation stage expert, with their Kings having broken into the meridian formation stage.
By all rights, Stella and Sarid were right. This was far too useless… For now.
The moment Dyon saw the vat of Celestial Hamster blood, an idea bloomed in his mind like an uncurable infestation. If he could implement this properly, achieving the task his master set out for him wouldn't be impossible.
According to the lore of the martial world, no singular man had ever risen from no clan to an Emperor God Clan in a single lifetime. The man who had come closest, the Demon Sage, failed at the last step due to the scheming of his enemies.
Of course, the Demon Sage had his own treasures to rely on, that being the Demon Sage Tower. It was a war machine built for the transcendent plane, to say it was helpful was to sell it short.
However, Dyon's help far outstripped this… Not only would he have the Demon Sage Tower, but the treasure of the Jafari… If King Mino wasn't lying about its abilities… Dyon could quite literally cry tears of joy.
"I can't explain it to you now, but you'll understand in the future. Prepare me a map of the dens you do know of, I'll handle the rest."
Seeing Dyon's certainty, the two could only sigh and comply.
Stella herself was in a far happier mood after learning that her father's actions over the past few years were under the influence of a curse. A massive weight had been lifted off of her shoulders, so how could she have the heart to squabble with Dyon over some rodents?
However, just as the two were about to go and retrieve the map Dyon asked for, they stopped in their tracks, completely mesmerized by the sight they were seeing.
At the center of the throne room, Dyon floated in the air cross-legged, a warm and happy smile lighting his face as his eyes shone with a fierce gold.
Miniature arrays blossomed into the room, filling it with beautiful sparkles of light.
Stella's eyes shone. "Beautiful…"
Dyon's happiness seemed to make the universe clap in elation.
The truth of the matter was that although Dyon had broken into the saint realm, due to the universe's anger, it hadn't even helped him fill a single meridian. Not even 10% of his first meridian had saint energy within it.
Yet, the universe seemed to forget it was angry with Dyon the moment his delved into a One with World state…
After the hooded avatar was destroyed by his mask, Dyon suddenly felt that he had gained understanding of not only its realm, but the subsequent sword avatar's realm.
One with World was the 8th stage of the intent realm, but was often the most misunderstood and neglected. In fact, one of the benefits to mastering a supreme law is that this state becomes open to you before reaching the 8th intent realm. With a supreme law, this realm is accessible from the very first intent stage.
Before, Dyon had only noticed this One with World sense have an impact on his 6th sense, long before he entered the celestial realm with his soul. However, this feeling had disappeared later on and he soon forgot about it.
However, the near death experience given to him by the hooded avatar showed him just how profound this state could be…
What had been the point of the trial? Every weapon before it seemed to have some profound teaching related to momentum and resonance… But, wouldn't understanding the momentum and resonance of all things lead you to that perfect One with World state?... Where you could meld into the world so well that you would just… Disappear?
By the end of it all, half a day had passed and Dyon had unknowingly filled Belmont Palace to the brim with refreshing pill aromas that could make one's mouth water.
However, Stella and Sarid's lips were perpetually twitching.
Firstly, was it even human to create so many tons of practitioner grade pills from thin air? Secondly, why were the worst of them only of 90% purity? Thirdly, were those the legendary reinforced pills they were seeing? Pills that gave off rings of light and called down heavenly chimes?
But even worse…
"You spent all this time making snacks for beasts?" Stella felt like fainting when the palace alchemists charged in to identify these "works of art" only to find out that such artistry was used on Beast Nurturing Pills.
