792 Second Trial 111 (1/2)

Dyon took a deep breath. His anger from the past few days was starting to calm, so he felt more focused.

His eyes remained closed as he continuously went through his memories of the first 9 pages. It didn't make sense for there not to be a way to gain acknowledgement, and Dyon doubted that the originator of this technique would want their successor to give up their talent in order to gain his or her acknowledgement. That would make too little sense, wouldn't it?

The problem was that if this was the case, then it was likely that the originator would want whoever received their tome to cultivate to the 9th stage before being allowed to see the 10th. If this was the case, then that would truly be a depressing reality. No matter how intelligent or talented Dyon was, cultivating this technique to the 9th stage within a day was simply impossible. This was especially so since he didn't have any Dragon Blood to even begin with.

For the Viserions, they had long since lost the need for dragon blood because their ancestors passed on this blood to them. So, from birth, the had the necessary materials within them. Unfortunately, Dyon didn't have any ancestors with Dragon Blood running through their veins.

Suddenly, Dyon's eyes flashed open, and intelligent light sparkling throughout them. Yet, they held a cold and unfeeling depth to them that made it clear that although he had buried his anger, it was very much still there.

That aside, those previous thoughts of his had led to an interesting conclusion…

Let's say that the tome really did need its owner to cultivate to the 9th stage first. On the surface, that would make this a helpless situation. However, Dyon saw this differently.

To someone from a science intensive world, Dyon saw everything as a chain of cause and effect. For the tome to be able to recognize someone only once they reached the 9th level, there had to be a certain trigger. That trigger could be any number of things.

One example could be vein surface area. Another could be Dragon Blood Integration. Yet another could be Dragon Soul strength. The list was endless, and it might even be a combination of things. However, tis all meant one thing: There had to be something within the book that was capable of checking such things. That meant that Dyon's first task before doing anything else, was to find what this thing was.

Admittedly, this would have been a task that was easy beyond belief if his soul wasn't locked away. However, he had no choice but to accept the reality that it was, and therefore, he had to rely on other things.

The most obvious possibility was an array. Dyon didn't think there were many other things capable of fulfilling such a responsibility.
