Chapter 1706 - Marry Me (1)

Dyon was unaware of Aritzia's meeting with her elder brother, but that didn't mean he hadn't prepared for this sort of potential situation. If he had to prepare for the less than intelligent individuals, how could he not prepare for those true geniuses?

Still, whether he prepared or not was irrelevant to the challenging road ahead. Duping someone with Aritzia's level of intelligence was no joking matter. Whether or not he succeeded would be decided by a thin blade's age.

At that moment, within the Celestial Corner of the Saint Floor, a familiar figure awoke from his meditation. This man's face was covered by a silver-gold mask, and he was dr.a.p.ed in luxurious royal blue robes embroidered with refined silver. However, none of these things were the most striking feature about this young man.

Around his body hung flickering creatures. One was in the shape of a small white tiger. Another was shaped like a mischievous little monkey. Yet another was a small, shelled turtle with skin smooth and white beyond compare. And the last was an adorable bambi-like deer, blinking with an innocent cuteness.

However, when one looked closely, it became obvious that these creatures weren't the same as Dyon's beast baby companions. No.. Instead, they were formed of white flames!

This was none other than Dyon's Creation Characteristic Flames displaying the full extent of their abilities. As for the young man they all hung around, it was none other than Dyon's clone!

There were many questions to be had here. But, there were none more important than two very glaring issues.

The first was the most obvious. Dyon's clones had a range limit. This range was limited by the extent of his divine sense. Dyon couldn't even cover the whole of the lower celestial floor with his senses, so how the hell could he sustain a clone on an entirely separate floor?

The next problem was more hidden, but it was just as glaring. Even Dyon's highest end clone could only survive for 3 days. But, it had been 6 months since Dyon last left the celestial floor, and even longer since then that he was on the saint floors at all. So how was his clone here at all even if he managed to circ.u.mvent the first problem?

Surprisingly, both questions had the same answers: Dyon's Purity Flames!

Back in the Golden Flame Mystical World, Dyon had taken a treasure known as Heaven's Selfless Breath. They were tea leaves which allowed one to enter a deep selfless state and were especially known for their ability to aid a cultivator in comprehending their manifestations. Luckily, Dyon's two flames were counted among his manifestations, so, he had learned quite a lot about them.

One of the most important abilities Dyon gained thanks to Heaven's Selfless Breath was a comprehension that his flames didn't have multiple characteristics, but instead, just one, overarching characteristic that grew more powerful as his soul strengthened: The Creation Characteristic.

However, months later, Dyon comprehended an even greater use for this ability. His white flames carried a life character to them that was perpetually linked with himself. If he used this connection, then he could create clones that could theoretically exist without range limitations or life limitations. As long as his flames continued to provide that link, his clones could last in indefinite time and range!

Dyon immediately took advantage of this. Before he left the saint floors, he created his highest grade clone.

In the past, his highest-grade clone would have 70% of his strength and last for 3 days within the range of his divine sense. However, after Dyon's body stacked so many constitutions, it became harder and harder to create high grade clones even with his level of soul prowess.

As of now, Dyon's highest grade clone would only have 20% of his prowess and last from half an hour at most.

That said, with bad news came some good. Before, Dyon's clones couldn't use soul path techniques. In fact, they couldn't even use wills. They were restricted to the body and energy path. However, something magical occurred after Dyon's Presence fused with every fiber of his being.

Not only did his clones gain 20% of his body and energy path prowess, they also gained 20% of his soul and will comprehension prowess as well!

20% of one's soul prowess might seem insignificant to most, but understand for a moment just how powerful Dyon's soul was. It was already in the dao realm! As a result, even if this clone wanted to take on the role of Moon Lord, there would be no issue whatsoever.

This put Dyon's clone in the perfect situation. Because he could tap into 20% of Dyon's will comprehension, though it couldn't produce life-like white flame creatures itself, it could definitely sustain already created ones. This feedback loop of sorts could keep it in existence indefinitely.

The best part was that these white flame creatures could take on the role that Dyon's true beast companions would have filled and could draw a dividing line between this identity and Dyon's once more. Plus, everyone knew it was almost impossible to travel from the celestial floors back to the saint floor… With Dyon's true body currently battling in such a high-profile manner, this was a great opportunity.

The young man's eyes opened. He smiled lightly, stroking the life-like creatures clinging to him.

"It seems it's time for Jaws to make an appearance."
