Chapter 1594 Emerged



Hearing the Nephilim Clan mentioned, Dyon remembered the Emperor Giant Clan. According to what he understood, they fell under that umbrella. It seemed that if he wanted to use his "blessings" appropriately, he had to find individuals with angel blood. That left only Amphorae and their potential children, but the Emperor Giant Clan was another possible avenue... If he could subdue them properly, they'd become a very powerful pawn for him. It was too bad he didn't like Anak very much...

Finally, after ranting for an obscene amount of time, Lillianna finally snorted.

"You want to gain the Goddess' Legacy, but are you even worthy? Do you even know what holding up her mantle entails? You might be a great soul talent, but controlling the Wings of Blessings isn't related to the soul at all.

"Blessings are an ancient form of magic. The only magic that can stand its equal in terms of ancestry and power is Dragon Tongue."

Dyon suddenly thought back to the Dragon Saliva he gained from the golden flame mystical world. If he recalled correctly, the twins said Dragon Saliva was the result of accumulated dense magic from repeated use of Dragon Tongue. It seemed that maybe it was more valuable than he gave it credit for.

"You don't understand even the most basic magic, yet you want to comprehend Blessings? What a joke.."

Dyon waved his hand. "Just tell me what the Blessings are. I need to decide whether they are worth my learning or not."

"You! Did you just imply that they might not be?!"

"It's not that I'm looking down on your Goddess. But, I truly don't have the time to spend in just any fashion. Even if I split off a clone from myself, that still requires some thought. I can only form one of my highest-level clones at a time.

"Junior's soul hasn't broken into the celestial realm yet, so our experiences aren't shared yet either. And, even if he had, he's more suited toward Curses instead of Magic due to his constitution, so I can't make use of him either.

"So just tell me what I can expect. How about it, teacher?"

Lillianna's small face suddenly brightened when Dyon called her teacher, she even puffed out her chest a bit, smiling with pride. She was truly too childish.

"Since my student has asked so politely, I'll have to oblige." Lilliana said proudly. "Every pair of wings represents a new level of blessings.

"Angel wings have new meridian circulation paths that normal humans do not have access to. Every new set of wings complicates these circulation patterns to a higher degree. Essentially, having angel wings gives you access to angel magic and these "circulations" are where the term "magic circle" comes from.

"Black wings contain body reinforcement magic. White wings contain qi amplification and control magic. Red wings contain battle magic. Gold wings contain the magic of blessings.n0VelusB.c0M

"I can say that with your battle prowess now, if you suddenly comprehended all of the magic circles hidden within your wings instantaneously, you'd be able to battle a dao expert even if you never healed your arm. Though, with the true power of blessings, regrowing an arm is child's play."

Dyon who had been listening passively almost stood up abruptly. Had it not been for Amphorae who was on his lap, he really would have done so.

"What did you just say?"

"Oh? Is student very interested now?" It seemed it was Lillianna's turn for payback.

"Though you don't know about magic, you should know at least this much: the 108 meridians of a magic master represent 108 'Cores'. The more Cores a magic master can control, the greater strength they wield. However, this 'Core' limit is just for normal humans and beasts. Beasts and higher race humans that have deep magic ancestry can do away with those limits.

"Without Cores, magic becomes more free flowing and becomes a better representation of your imagination... it almost becomes more like creation, like the work of a Goddess.

"Different species have different methods of doing away with this limiter. Dragons use language, but angels use our wings.

"If you can will things into existence just with your thoughts and words, you can wield unimaginable power. Hmph, magic is far better than array alchemy."

Dyon's lips twitched. He had a feeling she said this because the First Disciple she hated so much was the founder of array alchemy...

But, Dyon couldn't exactly refute her. It was just that both disciplines were good for different things. Magic was just far better for combat. If Dyon could use his soul for battle the same way magic could be used, maybe he would already be unafraid of a Higher Existence...

"Because of that odd manifestation of yours, you seem to be able to tap into three of the four angel magic disciplines. However, that's not necessarily a good thing. Learning and mastering just one is difficult enough, let alone three. Also, when I was alive, I was an angel with white wings while Holy Goddess was an angel with golden wings, so, you have no one to help you grasp body reinforcement magic. You can only rely on yourself.

"Is that so..." Dyon nodded. "I'll give you ten years with my clone."

Lillianna was stunned awake from her high. "Clone?!"

"Like I said, I don't have time. If learning magic is as hard for me as it was learning runic vein theory, it might be better if I don't attempt it at all." Dyon sighed. "Why can't everything be as easy as array alchemy?"

Lillianna's lip twitched while the Demon Sage who was hiding not far nearby so he could make sure Dyon didn't take advantage of his daughter felt a keen sense of kinship with Lillianna. He had felt this same exact way when he heard Dyon say this before.

Though Lillianna said array alchemy was inferior, there was no doubt which discipline was more difficult. There was a reason array alchemy was split into formation theory and alchemy. Just the two lesser disciplines that made it up were an equal for magic, let alone them fused together. The difficulty was even higher than just the sum of its parts.

Dyon was oblivious to the feelings of his two mentors. All he could remember was spending 25 years slaving away over runic vein theory tomes, yet he was barely at the standard of a decently high-level practitioner now.

Simply put, when it came to his talent in disciplines not named array alchemy, he felt he was trash. Of course, he didn't take into account that the Demon Sage was teaching him by ancient standards. By modern day standards, Dyon was nearly a Grandmaster Runic Vein Master.

But, even still, Dyon was very close to becoming a Planet Lord Array Alchemist by ancient standards. So, he obviously wasn't satisfied with his slow progress in the other fields. It seemed he was a bit spoiled by his array alchemy talent.

That said, although Dyon said he'd only give Lillianna ten years, he planned on seeing this through to the end. The battle prowess he was promised was no joke. If it really was so exaggerated... The day he mastered angel magic would be the day he was unmatched on the mortal plane.

As Dyon was preparing a clone to leave with Lillianna, and another to leave with his father-in-law, the martial world was in an uproar, because less than 30 years after Dyon, yet another name had appeared within the ranks of True God!
