Book 8: Chapter 206: Wyverns (2)

The male wyvern’s roar shook the mountain range. It pushed off, leaping up toward Dyon at terrifying speed.

Unfortunately for it, Dyon’s spatial will flickered, sending him clear of the enraged wyvern.

His palm shot forward again.

A brilliant crystalline formation appeared, glittering beautifully directly in the wyvern’s path. Since flight was impossible in this world – well, almost impossible considering Dyon’s current feat – the wyvern had no chance to change directions.

‘Let’s try this…’

Bold type qi awakened within Dyon’s body. In that instant, atmospheric qi responded to Dyon’s call, bending under his Presence and bowing to his will.

The wyvern slammed into the wall of crystal, its sorry figure reflecting backward even faster than it came.

‘So that works too, interesting…’

Just now, Dyon had utilized his Silver Mirror Constitution in conjunction with bold type qi and his crystal will to reflect the wyvern’s own leaping ability against itself. Bold type qi was able to give his silver mirror constitution an inconceivable boost in ability while crystal will was able to amplify things to the extreme. The result was something that made even Dyon feel bad for the wyvern who was currently a mangled mess strewn about on numerous jagged rocks.

Of course, the result was so great because Dyon used saint grade bold type energy and the fact his crystal will, something he usually neglected, was so much more powerful here.

Dyon had planned to use the wyvern to experiment with his power some more, but it looked like it had lost its battle prowess with just two strikes…

The scary part was that qi was still incredibly difficult to manipulate in this world. It was a bit easier when Dyon focused on just one type, instead of trying to gather conventional qi, but it was still difficult nonetheless.

Yet, despite only being able to gather a small amount of bold type qi, the result was so exaggerated.

Though he couldn’t experiment with the pitiful wyvern anymore, he had learned something else. Sensing and manipulating qi in this space was far easier when you had some of it already.

For example, just now, Dyon had switched the light type qi he entered the mountain range with to bold type qi. Not just that, he went from essence grade light type qi to saint grade bold type qi. He found that not only did having a similar type qi within his meridians make sensing and using the same qi easier, the higher grade of that type qi he had, the easier it became.

Dyon hadn’t been able to manipulate atmosphere light type qi when he had the essence grade version within him. But, the moment he used the saint grade bold type qi from the female wyvern’s nurturing pile, it was as though a doorway had opened up for him, one that hadn’t been there before. It gave Dyon numerous ideas he could experiment with in the future.

Dyon looked down. He had been planning on taking another glance at the mangled male wyvern, just to see whether it would be better to eat him or if he was worth healing and adding to his wyvern army, but something else caught his attention.

‘Green?…’

The color of his wills wasn’t something Dyon paid attention to, normally because their colors were obvious. However, there were some colorless wills. For example, his wind will or his music will.

That said, his wind and music will had colorful half-step daos. His wind will had a light, gentle green for it, while his music will was a rainbow of color.

The first thought Dyon had when he saw the green wind wrapping around him was that the color was an exact match of his half-step dao.

‘This Ancient Battlefield… Just keeps getting more and more interesting…’

Dyon realized he had to approach this world differently. This entire time, he had been treating these lands like another reality, but this wasn’t the case. This was a game. Though it was a game he could lose his life in, it was a game nonetheless.

This didn’t mean that Dyon would start taking this place as a joke, but rather meant the opposite. He had to take it more seriously. He had to stop treating it like a world he already knew all the rules of because he didn’t.

The most frustrating part about Ancient Games was the inability for individuals to share the rules with one another. Not only did you have to strategize to win, you also had to slowly comprehend the rules you were strategizing around.

Dyon had already made numerous mistakes in this world, assuming things he shouldn’t have. However, if he had approached this place like the Ancient Game it was, knowing he had to tease apart the hidden rules that shaped its landscape himself, he likely wouldn’t have made those mistakes.

‘Alright… I’ll play then.’

The roars of numerous beasts entered Dyon’s ears, causing him to smile.

Before, he thought that building a fort in these mountains was a pipe dream. He could only avoid them. But now, he had decided that this place would be his anchor to set a fire through the Ancient Battlefield. Though it wouldn’t be immediate, it was definitely a goal for the future.

Dyon sent a mental command to the cobras and bronzed, telling them to eat the female wyverns remains to their hearts content. He had something else to feast on.
