Chapter 1218 Scram

After healing, Dyon streaked across the universe, an odd elation taking root in his heart. He didn't know why, but he was very happy today. When he thought about it, he chalked it up to his vast increase in strength. He felt that soon, he'd be able to conquer the third floor of the demon sage tower and learn the secret Evangeline hid from him. What he didn't know was that the moment he awakened his Eternity's Balance truly, he could already withstand the backlash of learning of his alternate timeline.

Looking toward the beast babies, Dyon nodded with satisfaction. Although Little Yang and Yin hadn't grown, the other four had by quite a bit.

Lilin's shell had already gained a more than two-meter diameter and had a frightening weight of 50 000 jin. This weight was as light as a feather to Dyon, but for an essence gatherer like Linlin? It was impressive that she carried it without much issue.

Biibi and Shere had already grown into their own bodies as well. Each were about two meters in length and reached up to Dyon's waist on all fours. They had already begun exuding the proud auras of rulers. Dyon felt that if they could take one more step and have a breakthrough in their mentality, they could become Kings of the transcendent grade.

As for Sen, the only male other than Little Yang, he could stand to Dyon's shoulder now. Considering Dyon was 6'6, this made Sen at least 6' at only 3 years old!

Often times, Sen's aura was far more imposing when he leaned forward on his massive fists. But, he liked to imitate his elder brother and walk on his feet. Oddly enough, despite being an ape, Sen had two long twin tails that packed quite a punch.

When Dyon asked him about it, it turned out that Sen had a bulky form and a slim form. One resembled a traditional ape more, while the other was more monkey-like.

Still, Dyon had to say that the form he was biased toward were the beast babies' human toddler forms. They didn't turn into humans often, but when they did, they were absolutely adorable.

"Alright, report your progress to me. It will take about a week at this pace to make it to the central galaxy, so I have some time to set your paths." Dyon said, having relaxed enough.

Shere leaped onto the couch Dyon sat upon, laying her large head on his lap. Biibi followed suit as Sen sat across from Dyon, chewing away at a saint fruit. As for Linlin, she had turned into the adorable three-year girl in Dyon's arms. She didn't like moving very much, so she realized that being in her human form made it easier for Dyon to carry her around.

"We'll break through to the saint stage soon." Biibi spoke first. It seemed that she was the only responsible one among the four of them. Still, it was cute listening to such an immature voice try to pretend to be corporate and serious.

"Do you guys understand how tribulations work, then?" Dyon asked. However, the response he received was a fit of giggles.

"Stupid. Celestial Beasts don't have to face tribulations if they strictly follow the beast path. It's another ability of their bloodlines." Shere lazily teased as the rest laughed.

Dyon shook his head. 'Life is so unfair…'

He almost forgot that beasts were practically gifted all the information they could ever need within their bloodlines.

"Linlin." Dyon rubbed the small head of the little girl in his arms. "Your path is one of wisdom. Spending time together with the twins with benefit you greatly. Try your best to soak up all the knowledge you can from them.

"Your Celestial Turtle Clan is famous for their defensive abilities. Slowly learn to apply the knowledge you gain toward this path."

Linlin's large black eyes blinked as she looked up at Dyon. "What do you mean, big brother?"

"Imagine that you're facing an opponent whose technique you understand. Would facing such an opponent be easier or harder had you not had this knowledge?"

"Easier." Linlin responded easily.

"Exactly. The world of defense is very complex. The way to counter and even reflect various attacks often has a nuance that changes based on the opponent, even if they all use the same technique. The best way to become a great defensive specialist is to have enough knowledge to counter anything you face. Do you understand?"

Linlin nodded, her eyes brightening. "Linlin understands!"

"Shere." Dyon looked toward the white tiger that lay on his right lap. "You follow the slaughter path. Yet, you're already three years old and still haven't killed yet! Can you even call yourself a celestial tiger?!"

Shere pouted, knowing that her big brother was getting her back for teasing him.

"From now on, we'll hone your Slaughter Heart." Dyon smiled.

"Sen!" Looking toward the mischievous ape more worried about the fruit in his hand than him, Dyon shook his head. "Your Celestial Ape Clan follows two paths. A path of absolute power and a path of flexible agility. My plans for you requires learning the battle axe and the staff. Until you break through to the 3rd will realm in both, no more fruits for you!"

Hearing this, Sen finally looked up, an expression of horror on his features. However, Dyon didn't mind him and continued.

"Biibi, your Celestial Deer Clan's Purity Path makes you excellent healers. Your path will be one of learning array alchemy, botany and Healing of the Magic path."

A week later, the demon sage tower had finally broken into the central galaxy. In just a few hours, Dyon had homed in on a particular planet.

From outside the planet's influence, Dyon saw swaths of rocky and tall jagged mountains. The rivers and oceans that ran across its surface were even an eerie red color, making it look like a molten rock of red and black from above.

However, just as Dyon was about to descend, his eyes trained of a foggy barrier that covered about 20% of the planet. 'It must be there.'

Looking back toward the beast babies, he spoke. "You four stay here. Little Yin, Little Yang, you can come with me."

Although the four beast babies wanted to protest, they could only accept that they were still too weak to follow Dyon. In the end, they headed off toward their training rooms before rigorously starting on the techniques Dyon gave them.

**

Within the odd fog barrier of the planet, there was an entirely different world.

Extending for several thousand miles more than what it seemed on the outside, there were lush green grasses, tall and strong trees, and even healthy and raging rivers. This was clearly a Mystical World! Not only that, but a Mystical World that was easily accessible.

"This mine is my property! If you want it, you'll have to claim it over my dead body!" A young man with beady purple eyes roared as he watched the approaching enemies.

"Don't be like that. Aren't your and my clans friends? Haven't you learned to share?" A group of three slowly and cautiously approached, greed clear in their eyes.

Usually, a mine like this wouldn't be too rare. This was because this Mystical World lived in a pocket of accelerated time where a single day was worth only a portion of an hour in the real world. Yet, at the same time, unlike the other areas of Chaos Universe, the things here grew along with the accelerated time. It was obvious to anyone who knew much of anything that this was due to an otherworldly expert bending the laws of the universe and forcing it to accept this new timeline.

As a result, whenever the five-clan alliance came to this universe once every 1.2 million years, the marker for a new generation, the spiritual fruits, plants and mines had all had over 120 million years of growth!

Although Dyon had experienced 53 years in this universe, because of the volatility in time, others experienced much less, while some experienced more. Thus, despite having had a 50-year time limit given by their 12th elder, the beast alliance clans were still here.

In the sky, Dyon shook with rage. This wasn't because he cared about the young man being bullied, it was because his divine sense could cover the entire Mystical World and he could see the Legacy that should be his being taken by others. The Demon Sage really was too careless in making this world.

"Scram!" Dyon roared from the skies, causing the four beast men to look up before their eyes widened in fear.
