Chapter 1237 - Battle God (1) (1/2)

One hundred proud dragon tailed lions twitched on the ground, completely unable to move.

Among the races of the cosmos, beasts were the most susceptible to intimidation. This wasn't because of their lack of intelligence, because even lower earth grade beasts had the potential to match the intelligence of humans. Rather, it was because of their innate born instincts.

Beasts had a stronger connection to the natural elements in comparison to other species, but that wasn't always a good thing. Often times, the mechanisms that tuned their senses to such high levels that, say, allowed them to dodge a will attack materialized in space by Dyon's divine sense, were the very same mechanisms that handicapped them to a sonic attack like the one Dyon just used.

Demonic Will was a hard a difficult will to master, but it was exactly because of this that it was so useful in this case.

In ancient history, humans and weaker species of the like were at a dramatic disadvantage in comparison to beasts. Although their intelligence was, on average, higher, they didn't have the techniques honed to an appropriate level to compete.

Their bodies were weaker, their affinities were weaker, and their connections to the heavens were weaker. This put the beasts at such an advantage that in those primordial eras, it was actually the bestial families that were the ruling class of clans and sects.

However, that was when demonic will was birthed into the world. The term demon didn't refer to some amoral villain. No… A demon was the name the ancient races gave to a human beast!

Why was demonic will able to intimidate? Why was it able to drastically increase the defenses of the body? Why was demonic will the basis for Dyon's Demon Emperor's Will technique? A technique capable of morphing the body into something… less than human?

It was because demonic will was a counter measure. It was what helped ancient races to level the playing field with the beasts!

When Dyon layered his demonic will with his music will and roared into the skies, he became in the incarnation of a primordial beast, warning the pitiful ants before it that they had entered its territory. The innate instincts of the dragon tailed lion couldn't ignore this!

Dyon loosened his fists, barely applying enough force to keep the Dragon King in his right hand.

The approaching armies didn't dare to continue charging. The armies that had blocked off Dyon's path backward had been blown away by the second stage of his judgement attack. It seemed like the only threats remaining were Bors, Percival and his daughters.
