Chapter 2108 Ignorance
?Dyon's arm pierced through his own belly, ripping a golden seal from within him out.
The Overlords trembled. The moment those two treasures lost Dyon's shroud, their true fluctuations shook them to their core.
Heavenly Treasures! The Treasures of the 33 Heavens!
"Get away from me!"
Dyon threw Hell's Right Eye and The Seal. In a blink, they had soared over the horizon, out of sight of their gazes and out of range of their senses.
Greed filled the gazes of the Overlords. Once they got rid of this threat, wouldn't they have a path to the Immortal Realm? If they had such a treasure by their side... Their rise would be guaranteed! Right now, they were nothing but ants to the Immortal Plane. But if they had such backing, it would only be a matter of time before they grasped true strength.
Kaori and the normal young man stood in the air rooted in place.
Looking down at the Dyon who had blood running down his eyes and body, they felt more shaken than they ever had in their entire lifetimes.
To think that he wouldn't even want such weapons purely because they had been blessed by the Heavens. Just a single slight and he wanted nothing to do with it anymore.
Ancestor Golden Crow immediately gave up pursuit of Dyon, chasing after the thrown treasures.
"Didn't I say... To fight together?!"
Dyon's senses turned back toward the small shard in his hand. It was quite beautiful in a morbid kind of way, especially since he could see Ancestor Golden Crow's soul screaming in agony from his vantage point.
"How interesting."
With a thought, Dyon crushed it. Ancestor Golden Crow's last horrified scream filled the air, turning into particle sized red-
gold dust that sparkled between Dyon's fingers.
The white flames around Dyon blazed to life. They jumped from a gentle simmer to a raging typhoon, spiralling around Dyon with an illusory light.
The world around him shook and quaked.
A moment later, wavering runes began to appear within the dust particles. They seemed similar to the ones that perpetually floated around Dyon, except they were far more complex. In fact, there were also many more of them.
The bronze runes that appeared were a deeper bronze. The silver runes that manifested were a brighter silver. The gold runes trembled the space around them were a more lustrous gold.
Dyon had been thinking for a long time already. If he really were to break free from the Heavens entirely, just what would his path be? He had already completely discarded his inner world. And now that he had abandoned his qi, it might completely collapse any time now. However, he wasn't worried. He felt that his own path was far more powerful. It was a path so unprecedented that even if another had thought of it, they would abandon it immediately.
Dyon's master had opened up a whole new world to him by passing on her legacy to him... He realized that he had been too tunnel-visioned in the way he viewed array alchemy. Even after that, Madeleine's words truly woke him up. His lovely wife understood him better than even he understood himself...
Array Alchemy was about snatching heavenly laws as you pleased. This was what reigned supreme at the core of it all. Who said it had to be executed with heavenly herbs? Why couldn't he do it with the flesh and blood of beasts? Why couldn't he use the human body as a cauldron as he did with Ri? Why couldn't he use the beast core in his hands at this very moment...?
'Give them to me. The laws that made you a Golden Crow. The source of your strength, your blood, your flames...'
The runes around Dyon trembled as though fighting against his command.
