Chapter 1216 Man And Beast

Dyon's titan diamond body and eternity's balance constitutions weren't the only ones to improve. In fact, maybe the fiercest of the three in terms of improvement was his silver mirror constitution. While he hadn't even grasped titan diamond body's hardening ability to even a small success level, and while he could only use eternity's balance to the highest degree after a moment of enlightenment and just for a few fractions of a second, his silver mirror constitution seemed to improve by leaps and bounds everyday.

The normal silver mirror constitution was able to reflect attacks by a certain percentage. However, Dyon's was on another level entirely.

During Dyon's travels, he had come across a total of 34 or so celestial embryonic beasts. Without fail, every time, he would immediately enter the demon sage tower and run. These 34 celestial embryonic beasts didn't even count the number of times his growing bestial instincts made him run even before laying eyes on said creature.

Obviously, since Dyon ran into celestial embryonic beasts, essence gathering embryonic beasts weren't rare at all, it was just that Dyon didn't add them to his win and loss counter and only used them for food and practice.

Long story short, these essence embryonic beasts… stood not a single chance.

Without even making use of his celestial body, Dyon was able to project shields of blinding silver light to repel their attacks. Over time, he realized that these beasts were perfect for honing his silver mirror constitution.

When facing low and middle essence beasts who essentially had the equivalent power of Dyon's energy cultivation, not only could he reflect 100% of their attacks, there was even a 10% boost hidden within this reflection!

As Dyon's energy manipulation abilities grew and he began to slowly reach the One with Self realm for numerous lower common grade techniques and even began to master some middle grade techniques, this percentage steadily grew.

What Dyon didn't know was that if he stopped sealing off his thoughts and began to apply his comprehensions to these new abilities, this percentage would spike upward to 150% if not more! The concepts of momentum and resonance that he learned within his tribulation trial were simply perfect for this constitution.

As time continued to tick onward, Dyon's abilities increased. By the end of the 11th year, Dyon had finally grown strong enough to defeat a middle saint embryonic beast! The experience shattered the bottleneck his titan will had been stuck in for so long, launching him into the 4th will level and giving him access to the second stage of Titan Emperor's Will.

Dyon continued to grow. Knowing that he wouldn't be able to access the third stage until he reached the 7th will realm, Dyon continued to throw himself into his battles.

By the end of the 15th year, the number of battles Dyon had fought skyrocketed to over 12 000 and his number of victories crossed 800. However, these victories were worth far more. He no longer counted lower saint beasts! By now, he had single handedly defeated over 400 middle saint beasts!

The mountain seemed to grow more and more difficult to climb. Maybe the only saving grace was that he had finally found his second middle saint grade infernal core within the body of a black-steel furred rodent.

Even after 15 years and his titan will growing to the peak of the 5th will realm, Dyon still found high saint embryonic beasts to be an impossible hill to climb. With so many handicaps placed on what he could do, the results were often devastating.

The good news was that even with his comprehension stunted with his thoughts cut off, Dyon's bestial instincts grew. Eventually, he began to master techniques using these instincts as a replacement for his thought. Although the process was far slower, he made progress. With the 15th year passed, he finally completed a large portion of his Master's asks to the high common grade level!

Energy manipulation, fist techniques, kicking techniques and movements techniques, 300 of each were mastered to the One with Self realm!

Over time, Dyon's mindless bestial state almost took the likeness of another kind of selfless state. He delved into the bestial path so far that he could learn techniques simply by instinct alone. Yet, even with all of these improvements, he lost to high saint embryonic beasts consistently, not gaining a victory against even a single one.

It wasn't until the end of Dyon's 18th year that he could finally fight toe to toe with such beasts and not until half the 19th year had passed before he gained his first victory over one!

By his side, the beast babies continued to grow. Each of them had chosen to follow the beast path strictly. As transcendent grade beasts, they had no need to rely on the human path to improve their future prospects. Although they would be weaker than Little Zaire because of this, they were never his equal in terms of talent regardless.

However, this didn't mean that they wouldn't be powerful. Who dared to look down on a transcendent grade beast? Linlin, Biibi, Shere and Sen were all the equivalent of 8 tailed kitsune at worst.

With Dyon pampering them with resources, their future prospects were boundless. If they could rely on Dyon's resources to restore their bloodlines to the supreme grade realm, boundless would be an inadequate descriptor!

Man and beasts together crossed Chaos Universe, side by side.

The strength of Dyon's body grew. By the end of the 22nd year, he had finally crossed the one million jin barrier giving him the equivalent weight of a lower Spiritual grade treasure! He also seemed to realize that his hardening ability progressed as he accepted larger percentages of hide body weight, they both scaled to one another.

While this didn't mean that Dyon could suddenly gain a thousand times the defense if he forcefully entered his one billion jin state, it did mean that if one day Dyon gained absolute mastery over his one billion jin state, he would then gain a thousand times the defense he currently had.

In addition to this, Dyon's instincts told him that once he crossed the one hundred million jin threshold, he would be able to enter the titan world once more. Unfortunately, at the moment, he didn't have control over this, but he was confident he soon would.

The potential resources to be found within the titan world couldn't be underestimated. Before, Dyon wasn't certain if he could take this into and out of that world, but when Ri teased him about being covered in beast dung when he came out, that unknown question suddenly had an answer. If that beast dung covered his skin even after he returned, doesn't that mean he had technically taken something out of that world?

Thinking about the ridiculous number of energy stones infused into the ground, Dyon couldn't help but salivate and train harder. Maybe one day he'd be wealthy enough to no longer care about money once more.

**

Dyon battle prowess soared. By the end of the 29th year, high saint embryonic beasts were finally within his sights. By the start of the 31st, he had gained his first victory over them!

If this sort of the battle prowess was translated to the real world, it would as followed:

In his deepest third selfless state, before Dyon awakened his constitutions, he was able to fight a middle celestial of the low order third grade. In fact, he was able to fight two of them without falling to a disadvantage while both of these opponents were only a single realm from the high celestial level – 6th stage Celestials.

However, outside of this third selfless state, Dyon's opponents would have to be 4th stage celestials for him to replicate this feat, and, of course, of the low order third grade or lower. Although this was only a difference of two stages, one has to remember how large the differences between realms were even in the saint realm, let alone the celestial realm.

After Dyon awakened his constitution, his abilities soared. He estimated that his absolute limit would be capable of fighting a lower order second-grade middle celestial. If he utilized his Titan Emperor's Will, breaking his master's rules, he would be able to fight toe to toe with a lower order second-grade expert of the 6th stage celestial to victory. He would also be able to eek out a long fight against a 7th stage celestial, before he would inevitably lose. Assuming he didn't make use of tricks and his intelligence.
