Chapter 2330 End (1)

It was only when Dyon saw Madeleine's eyes flutter open and felt her wrap her arms tightly around him did he finally breathe a sigh of relief. It was as though all the weight he had been bearing alone for so long had finally left his shoulders, allowing his body to feel lighter than it ever had before.

Finally, Dyon really had no choice left but to explain.

"Fine, fine. For you all, I really will make an exception." Dyon lightly smiled.

It had been too long since he smiled such a genuine smile. Maybe he never had since Madeleine's death in his first life. It could only be said that he wasn't truly free until this moment. UppTodated from nô/v/e/lb(i)n.c(o)/m

"In my first life... it could be said that my world was shrouded in darkness."

Dyon's wives and his daughter sat around him.

Each of them represented a different piece of his heart and had experienced different things with him. However, this would be the first time they would learn about everything.

"My parents were only Saints. In that era, such a cultivation level was pitifully weak. I wasn't meant to accomplish very much at all."

Dyon smiled lightly. He had been born in the warring era between the Primordial and Golden Eras. Back then, qi was so abundant that even Higher Dao Formation Realm experts could only be considered members of the younger generation. So, it was quite obvious just how poor Dyon's background was.

"Father and mother only managed to have me near the end of their lifetimes. It was already difficult for cultivators to have children, even as Saints. It could be said that they were

exceptionally unlucky, both to have me so near the end of their lives and to birth a son like me."

Dyon sighed. "You all know it well by now. I was born as the incarnation of evil, not much different from Jasmine of the Water Mist Sect. In fact, I was far worse than her. If it wasn't for the impact my parents had on my life, I would have become a devil's seed a long time ago.

"However... they were already old. I didn't have enough time to become powerful enough to help them break into the celestial realm, so I could only watch them die of old age.

"In order to vent my frustration, I made a lot of enemies in a lot of places. The morals my parents instilled in me began to conflict with my own inherent nature causing my personality to split into two lanes. On one hand, I wanted to make my parents proud. But, on the other, I was a man who sought after blood and murder.

"There were many times I nearly fell completely to those murderous thoughts and would have... had I not met Madeleine."

Dyon couldn't help but smile again, remembering those memories.

"I still remember that day well. I didn't have a good impression of her at all actually. I thought she was an arrogant bitch who thought too much of herself."

"Pft...!"

Alauna couldn't manage to maintain a serious expression.

Her father? Not liking someone because he thought they were too arrogant? Where did his hypocrisy end?

Dyon patted his chest with righteous indignation seeing those he loved the most in the world laugh at him like this.

"You all don't understand. She rode around in a blinding white flying ship and radiated golden white light all the time. She called her subordinates Holy Princesses, Queens and Empresses, and even called herself a Holy Goddess. How pretentious!"

"This led me to finding the Sapientia. I had always thought that it was them who were my

true enemies, so I prepared as such. But... I never expected that the day I sent myself into reincarnation, my disciples would be attacked and killed...

"I didn't know who did it, but there was only one person who knew I took any disciples at all."

Dyon's voice sounded quite sad at this point.

"The truth is that Abraxus' Cycles of Reincarnation technique is incomplete and far from perfect. It's the reason for his blindness... He tried to use it once and might have partially succeeded, but he paid a heavy price in return. In all likelihood, this is the true reason he could live for such a long time.

"However, I was able to perfect it because my soul reached soul quintessence. It allowed me to fuse with the Heavens in a way others couldn't imagine.

"It's quite ironic. I speak so much about hating the Heavens, but in the end, it's the reason for much of my power. Ultimately, what I came to understand is that it's nothing to be mad at..."

Dyon sighed again. He suddenly felt old.

In his 109th life, he came to understand this during his battle with Death. Often, the things we hated most in life didn't even put us in their eyes. They were things so far beyond our control that there was no point in hating them...

The best thing one could do was play the game with the cards they were dealt. Dyon had wanted to so badly defeat his master and third sister with his own two hands, but in the end, it wasn't his destiny to do so. He could only rely on what he had.

He had lived 109 lifetimes and learned this lesson 109 different ways. He didn't know whether he should be depressed or gratified

about it. But, what he did know was that he was feeling quite content at the moment.

"... I used my lifetimes to build up the armies you saw outside. But, I needed a way to do it in secret without others knowing. So... I created the Titan Diamond Body constitution and formed the Ancient Battlefield."

Dyon's wives and daughter widened their eyes in shock. If things were like this then didn't that mean that... the rise of the humans against the beasts in the Chaotic Era was thanks to Dyon?

They felt a headache thinking about the looping timelines. The cause and effect was too difficult to grasp.

"Thanks to the Ancient Battlefield, my army was able to grow in seclusion for many years. And, while the Sapientia suffered from the weakening qi of the world, my armies always cultivated in

the harsh environments of the Chaotic Era, making them several times more powerful.

"However, even then, I wasn't confident in dealing with everything, so I needed another contingency plan. Luckily, Apollos was born sometime between my 7th and 12th life..."

"That's right..." Jade started with a curious expression. "... How did you subdue someone who could defeat Abraxus while feeling unconfident that you could defeat him yourself?"

"You probably have an idea already..." Dyon said lightly. "... When I successfully merged the Ancient Battlefield with the mortal plane, the Heavens were re-established, returning the suppression they all thought was gone.

"This alone wouldn't be enough to defeat to him. The true issue lied in the fact that the Ancient Battlefield was also connected to the

Immortal Plane, allowing Apollos access to far more power than he had when I had to defeat him.
