Chapter 1247 - First (2) (1/2)
Dyon didn't have much of a reaction to the entity's words. Maybe someone else might have been excited at the acknowledgement of a transcendent, but not only was he not in the state to care, even if he was in his normal state, he would have only seen this entity as an enemy.
Clearly, though, his flames were something even someone at that level couldn't ignore…
”So, what did my precious Junior Brother come here for?”
Dyon scanned the surroundings. He could still see the craters and residue from his battle 14 years ago… Even the death abyssal core hadn't faded away yet, but at this point, it was far too weak to be of any use to Dyon. After all, it was at the level of a mere essence gate when Dyon harvested it which meant it could only help him reach the 3rd intent level at best. Considering he was now at that 9th intent level, he even found it quite lacking…
”What's your goal?” Dyon suddenly asked.
”My goal?” The entity questioned. ”Isn't it obvious? The heavens control our fate like a puppet master, pulling upon the strings of our life without care or consequence. Even worse, no matter how shiny or entertaining we might be, this puppet master will eventually get bored of us one day and never lift us up to play again.
”Is it not the nature of the living to want to break free of this control? I'm just closer to most others at accomplishing my goal.”
”So the only puppet you care for is yourself?”
The entity laughed. ”Do you believe that I am cold and heartless? Let me tell you something.
”My Master and your grand teacher has five world defying abilities. Cycle of Reincarnation. Ethereal Permeation. Temporal Lock. The Aurora. And True Empathy.
”Each one of these abilities has reached an unprecedented level, while three of them have reached a level of absolute perfection, allowing them to fuse with the will of the universe and be passed on to later generations.
”These three were Ethereal Permeation, a supreme law among the very best. The aurora, the absolute central staple of secondary professions. And, finally, True Empathy.
