Book 12: Chapter 112: Long Enough (3)
The most powerful treasures in all of existence had souls of their own. However, just like how human souls had divisions among them, treasure spirits had divisions among them as well.
At this moment, Dyon was quite happy that the other groups had been too scared to stay in his vicinity and had directly left. If not, he would have likely had to put his life on the line in order to kill them all. It was simply not in his best interest for others to know that he carried such a treasure, and so much of it at that.
How the Earl had gotten his hands on such a treasure? Dyon wasn’t sure. However, everyone had their own luck and it seemed that the Earl’s hadn’t been bad until he decided to act against him. And now, Dyon had the perfect treasure he needed to awaken Reaper and bring Little Chibi to the top of the world with him.
Both of them had been in a deep slumber ever since they absorbed those high grade ores. Though the potential of a treasure spirit could be slowly raised over time by taking in ores that were compatible with them, the process took an extraordinarily long time.
However, the greater the potential of a treasure spirit, the faster this evolution would go. Which meant… Dyon had the confidence to awaken them both right now!
In fact, this wasn’t all. Treasure spirits could be considered beloved children of the heavens as well. As they were born naturally, just like sprites, they could break rules that normal individuals could not. The best part was that even though Reaper and Little Chibi had broken free from the Heavens, they could still break these rules!
Without hesitation, Dyon gave Reaper two drops and Little Chibi three. That was right. While humans and beasts and various other races could only consume a single drop, spirits and sprites like Reaper and Little Chibi weren’t restricted by this at all.
In that moment, a violent surge erupted within Dyon’s inner world.
After reforming his inner world, Dyon had gained a great ability. Though on the surface it didn’t seem like a big deal, it was showing its might right now: the inner worlds of himself and his clones were all connected as one!
As a result, there was no need for Dyon’s clones to leave this world and send these treasures back to his main body because they were effectively in Dyon’s hands already.
Little Chibi surged into the skies. Her treasure gained a gorgeous luster, shimmering in deep reds and endless blacks as it pulsed with a golden light.
Her uproarious yet adorable laughter surged as he felt her potential skyrocket. In the blink of an eye, her treasure spirit went from the venerable grade, crossed into the empyrean grade, broke through the god grade, and slammed against the pinnacle of that level.
Right beside her, Reaper didn’t lose out.
Its body was somewhat different from the past as well. Before, its body was perfectly smooth and without the slightest bump of scratch. It could blend into the darkness seamlessly and without equal.
But now, though it could still sink into the darkness, its body had gained character it hadn’t had before.
Its long pole had lengthened, reaching almost 4 meters in height. It was still just as slender and sleek as it had been in the past, but now, it radiated a faint black light that made the space around it tremble. If others saw this, they would be shocked without end. Just how sturdy was the space of the immortal plane? And what kind of weapon could affect it?
However, it was Reaper’s blade that underwent the most drastic change.
It was no longer sleek. It looked like an irregularly cut gem, curved menacing at almost 5 meters from end to end. The irregular shimmering shapes on its surface flickered even more savagely than its polearm. Within each one of these shapes, if one focused with all of their might, it was possible to see a singular closed eye.
However, as though its surface was a house of mirrors, it was difficult to tell whether there really were hundreds of these eyes, or… if there really was just one…
Much like Little Chibi, its treasure spirit skyrocketed to the pinnacle of the God grade, radiating outward with an imposing aura.
With both of his most valuable possessions increasing their potential to such a level, Dyon was immensely satisfied. Now, the two of them would be able to absorb the precious ores he fed them instantaneously. In addition, any bottlenecks they faced were completely erased up to the pinnacle God grade.
In addition, now that they were God grade treasure spirits, they could completely suppress any weapons they came across with the exception of the treasures of the 33 heavens. The only thing stopping them from entering the god grade now was the fact their bodies were made of inferior materials.
But… Dyon wouldn’t let this last for long.
Just as Dyon was about to turn his attention back to this immortal legacy that had grasped his interest, his footsteps suddenly paused.
After a moment, his smile widened.
‘Hey little guy, I think it’s about time you wake up. You’ve made me wait long enough, don’t you think?’
Without a drop of hesitation, Dyon took an untouched bottle soul nurturing elixir, sent it into his inner world, and shattered it above where Little Rain was in his deep slumber…
