Chapter 1871 Mistake

Chapter 1871 Mistake

The greatest weakness of universes was just how much empty space there was. There were countless trillion habitable planets, yet only a few dozen would be occupied at most, each of which would be a mind boggling number of light years apart. Even with teleportation arrays between them, such a matter was simply too inconvenient, especially when it came to defending.

Over these last more than ten years, Dyon had taken advantage of his Immortal Sense to find enough timeless and spaceless stones to activate the Jafari Clan treasure once more, but he felt like even this wasn't enough.

He knew through Luna that the Sprite Alliance had a space sprite Higher Existence among their ranks. Such a person would only need a few centuries to break through the defenses of the Jafari Clan treasure, at worst, it would only take a few decades.

Of course, these estimates were only if this person was allowed to freely attack without any interference, but Dyon didn't like leaving things up to chance. So, he decided it was best that if his Mortal Alliance had both outer and inner protections.

Making use of the Sage Tower's ninth form, Dyon began to rearrange his controlled universes.

First, he changed the layout of his universes, arranging them such that a single universe only gave access to at most two other universes through the Gates.

In the mortal realm, arranging your cities in a straight line was about the dumbest thing you could do, but in the context of universes, it was safest option.

As one might expect, this terraforming took a ridiculous amount of resources. Dyon simply didn't have such funds on hand. In the end, he could only grit his teeth and use the origin crystals left behind by the celestial deer sect. This decision resulted in the effective destruction of a valuable master key planet grade array, but Dyon was at the point where he didn't need to value them so highly. Still, the loss of a master key array was a painful choice to make.

Luckily, the origin crystal showed its worth. Despite moving several universes to form a V shape which protect Soul Universe at its point, Dyon could sense that the origin crystal still had over 50% of its energy left.

This was a matter than astonished him. He had steeled his heart, ready to sacrifice more origin crystals, but even after moving the universes and even the planets and galaxies within them as he pleased, it could still do the process all over again and still have some left over!

The best part about this was that this meant he could once more use the master key array he thought he had forever lost.

Dyon really wanted to know just how the Celestial Deer Sect got their hands on such a thing... If the outer powers also had these crystals... He had to be more careful than ever.

In the end, Dyon decided to put these matters to the back of his mind and continue working.

After arranging the Celestial Deer Quadrant as he saw fit, he arranged their circumstances within as well.

He moved all of the habitable planets and most valuable resources of each universe to its very center, creating an interconnected network of planets and abyssal cores. Then, he created several protective arrays formed of countless stars and even blackholes to surround them in a protective cocoon.

Even he, with his Immortal Sense, would find it difficult even to make it out from within, let alone others attempting to make it in from the outside.

Then, Dyon proceeded to devour stars. Using the seventh floor of the Sage Tower, he was able to convert the deaths of these stars into energy. The only reason he hadn't done this to provide energy previously and instead used the origin crystal because he emphasized speed back then. He didn't feel comfortable leaving his Alliance unprotected for so long.

Devouring stars seemed great, but each star took several days to weeks to devour depending on its energy density. And, to match the energy of a single origin crystal, one had to devour ten thousand stars. One could see from this why Dyon would be anxious about time.

But now that he was confident in the protections of his lands, he began to devour the stars he hadn't used in the protective arrays. Like this, he could not only make it more difficult to navigate his territory by forcing his enemies to lost reference points, but he could also slowly gain a store of energy that would be an effective trump card in the future...

Maybe the biggest change to the Mortal Alliance, though, was the fact it had officially become a Comet Grade Empire!

After awaking his Immortal Sense, Dyon no longer needed Researcher Ton to find universe spirits. He easily conquered the universe spirits of the Dark Ocean, all while making Soul Universe his 100th conquered territory and making Chaos Universe his 200th conquered universe.

As for where Dyon gained 200 universes when before he only had 131, the answer to that question could be found with his vassal states. Not only had he succeeded in roping in the Kong Clan the heir of which was the sworn brother of Ryu's father, he had also succeeded in taking in the Grand Templar Sect, the very Sect he rampaged in after losing his mind to his Chaos Flames.

In truth, Dyon almost lost his life many times in battling the Soul and Chaos Universe spirits.

The Soul Universe was once the home of the Celestial Deer Sect before they moved to Dyon's home universe. In the end, it retained some of that strength of Faith and was incredibly difficult to defeat.

Originally, Dyon had been confident in easily taking it on. After all, it was a soul path universe, and his strongest path was his soul. But he could have never imagined it would be difficult to that extent. It could only be said that the former Celestial Deer Sect had an overwhelming amount of Faith. It was no wonder why despite only controlling two quadrants in the past, even the outer powers feared it.

Dyon didn't know exactly what this secret was, but he believed that the answer lied in the hidden Legacy of his Celestial Deer Sect.

[Author's Note: Remember that when he found his master in the Valley of Geniuses, she gave him the star coordinates of the Celestial Deer Sect's legacy. But, back then he had been far too weak to go and get it. Currently, that legacy is still within the 99 universes and *hint, hint, wink, wink* likely has the secret to why Dyon's master made him master all of those techniques.]

Luckily, in the end, Dyon prevailed and made the Soul Spirit his 100th universe spirit. As a result, the children of his Mortal Alliance were all born with 20% more soul talent than they otherwise would be!

This reality was shocking to Dyon.
