Chapter 2231 Bright
Dyon snapped the fingers on his left hand, stopping the three beast heads from continuing their rampage. However, even then, the once high class building seemed that it really might collapse any time now.
At that moment, Dyon froze. It wasn't because some formidable enemy was coming, but rather because he felt that he was wrong before. It wasn't just that Little Rain was too powerful... But he was certain that this had something to do with the Soul Tome as well!
"You... You can increase the strengths of techniques directly using my soul? Why the hell didn't you tell me this earlier? I would have squashed Emytheus like a bug."
The Soul Tome trembled as though to say 'didn't you think I was useless'?
Dyon stepped forward as though he really was about to rip out its pages, causing the Soul Tome to have no choice but to hurriedly explain itself to avoid being humiliated. Having its pages ripped out was no different to a woman being stripped bare.
'So that's how it is...'
Dyon finally understood. He had known that the treasures of the 33 heavens would become stronger and display their abilities after coming back to their home plane, but he didn't know it would be this heaven defying.
Just then, he executed a dao grade technique... but it was no weaker than a mystic grade technique! The technique he had used was of the peak dao grade, yet when executed, it was almost at the middle mystic grade. That meant that when the Soul Tome was present when using a technique, it could raise the technique's strength by a step and a part half!Updated from novelbIn.(c)om
Maybe the best part was that Dyon could use the Soul Tome wantonly in this place. Though these puppets seemed incredibly real, they were still puppets in the end. Even if by some miracle someone was really able to see through the shroud of his immortal sense and realize what kind of treasure the Soul Tome was, it didn't matter.
This was simply the way of the martial world, and it was all the more exaggerated in an underground crime world like this one. The strong were respected and the weak were abandoned. Dyon was young, ambitious, and most importantly: Strong! Such a thing was an asset no matter where he went.
Though he was a bit overbearing, which talented youth didn't have a bit of arrogance?
Still, if the old man let things slide so easily, it would be difficult to rein in the disappointment of the others. Though he disdained to do such things, he was helpless. After all, not everyone was as talented as Dyon. The foundation of any organization would be made up of these lesser people, so it was important to appease them.
"While I appreciate your talent, young man. You should exercise forbearance in your every action. Had you not killed them, we would have still had room for discussion. But, since you have, there are consequences."
Dyon was a bit helpless in this regard as well. He hadn't planned on killing them, it was just that the Soul Tome had hidden its true abilities so he overcompensated.
At that moment, the Soul Tome vibrated again as though pleading its case. Dyon had suddenly pulled it out after ignoring it for several decades, when would it have had the time to explain anything?
The old butler lightly tapped his foot and appeared before Dyon.
Dyon sighed. "[World. Cage.]
Little Rain's body shot from Dyon's arm, shooting toward the ground then suddenly rapidly wrapping around Dyon's body. However, it couldn't be considered a cocoon. Dyon's form could still very clearly be seen through several gaps.
