Book 7: Chapter 167: Cleaning (4)

“Now that I think about it,” Dyon mused, “This technique isn’t entirely useless to me for pills. If I used it for improving concoction speed instead of improving the pill formula, it could work…”

Dyon smiled. He felt that even if this had been the only treasure he received from this, he would have been endlessly satisfied. But, not only had he received this, he had also received the priceless star grade Divine Pulse pills. In addition to all of that, now that he had so many valuable items he could auction off, he didn’t need to place the Divine Pulse pills on the line now. It was best if no one ever found out about them.

With that thought, Dyon spent a few weeks to master what amounted to about a third of the technique. He felt that he would soon step into its second of three tiers as well.

‘Hopefully I’ll find the second and third parts… If not, it’s not so bad. It still counts as a divine grade technique.’

As expected, it wasn’t so easy to lower the requirements of Titan Emperor’s Will. He estimated he would have to master the third part to do that. But, with Dyon’s speed, he was confident in doing so within half a year, something that would be a pipe dream for anyone else.

Still, at just the peak of the first tier, Dyon was certain of lowering the requirements for any Earth Grade technique by as much as 40%. Even for Heaven Grade techniques, it was about 20%. Knowing this, common grade techniques didn’t even need to be spoken of. They were already at 60% or so for peak common grade techniques, even more for lesser grades.

With this, Dyon’s speed of reaching the One with Self realm had more than doubled. Plus, his energy consumption in using common grade techniques was almost negligible now.

One a particular day, Dyon’s eyes flashed open, a warm soul pressure emitting from him as complex arrays turned within his eyes. He had an odd scholarly air to him that was much different from his usual unrestrained, almost bestial style. But, he was still the same Dyon.

‘Small success of the second tier.’ Dyon breathed out, picking up the sleeping Madeleine in his arms and finally continuing to the next trial room.

On the top floor, the red-armored guardian was only growing more depressed. If Dyon hadn’t spent three weeks, he would have already cleared the sky castle. When was such an overwhelming genius born? It was borderline unfair. To think he did all of this with his sick wife in his arms. If he had been willing to let her go, he would have finished even faster.

The blackened doors continued to grow. There was a good portion of the treasures that remained useless to Dyon. More cauldrons, more alchemic robes, and more techniques. But, others were more useful in the sense that they would help him grow his empire.

He found a room filled with soul stones. Although the actual purpose of the room was to show of the formation at the center of it that sped up soul cultivation by almost 50%, Dyon didn’t care about it. This was because the [Dao of Array Alchemy] had a more efficient formation that increased soul cultivation speed by almost 100% percent.

What actually caught his attention were the stones themselves.

Much like energy stones could be created by great experts, so could soul stones. Dyon didn’t need these soul stones for himself, but he thought they could be useful to alchemists when they were on the final step of a concoction and needed just a little bit more energy.

Since there were several trillion of them, more than Dyon could bother to count, Dyon believed that using these would be good for building the foundation of his Empire. It wasn’t like he had the time to sit around and concoct every pill and forge every weapon.

Actually, soul stones had another use. In large scale formations that didn’t rely on the laws of Feng Shui, they were necessary for upkeep. They could also help Dyon create formations his soul was took weak to form right now. For example, creating a Planet Grade formation with mere Moon Grade strength. Of course, Dyon would have to research these formations heavily, but it was still possible.

Finally, there were a whole host of pills that Dyon found incredible as well, many of which fell between the comet and moon grades.

The first were Moon Grade Soul Foundation Pills. These were among the pills Stella asked for all those years ago. Back then, Dyon could only promise her 1, but here were several hundred thousand, just sitting and waiting.

These pills were able to give those without innate souls a baseline of soul talent and also expand the Mind’s Eye. If Dyon combined this with the aurora steps, the results could be devastating.

The second weren’t exactly pills, but rather, tea leaves. Or, more accurately, a stock of ten spiritual plants and seeds that produced these tea leaves. They were known as Heaven’s Selfless Breath and were Planet Grade plants.

They allowed one to sink into their selfless state without penalty. Or, sink into an even deeper selfless state than one you were currently in, again, without penalty.

However, the function that caused Dyon’s heart to beat the most was something the twins had said off-handedly when they saw the ten bushes that stood barely a meter tall. According to history, these plants were the best means by which one would learn the secrets of their Manifestation!

After being surprised by his own just weeks earlier, Dyon realized just how little he understood his manifestation. He remembered that those of the Elvin Kingdom had told him that awakening two manifestations wasn’t necessarily a good thing because it was so easy to confound which had which ability. It wasn’t until now that Dyon fully understood this…

Having a unique manifestation was about plotting out a path all on your own. No one would be there to help you…. At the very least, these heavenly treasures would help.

The last pills, ironically found in the very last rooms Dyon visited, were a myriad of healing pills – billions of grandmaster grades, one thousand comet grades, ten moon grades and exactly one planet grade. To Dyon, at a time like this, they were invaluable.

He didn’t give one to Madeleine because this was a trial she needed to jump over alone, or else her three newly formed meridians would become weaker than the others, thus defeating the purpose. However, these would be of great use for him and the celestial babies.
