Chapter 1479 - Torment (1) (1/2)

Dyon stood upon a gold formation, raining down hell upon the Demonic Gorge. By now, his use of Soul Aid had reached such a scary level that his already formerly overwhelming soul strength had only become all the more so.

Since he entered the marital world, Dyon's favorite array to use had always been his Weapon's Hell array. Even with his master banning him from using his weapon's hall manifestation, the ability was still powerful beyond belief.

In the beginning, it was a mere 3rd stage array, corresponding to the lower practitioner realm. However, Dyon made improvements to it until it shone a purple-gold and entered the 5th stage, or the lower master realm.

After Dyon found the [Dao of Array Alchemy] within the Elvin Tombs, he learned that the versions of the weapon's hell array he was using had several levels above to go. In the end, he was able to form a new version capable of destroying peak saints in a single strike, shedding its purple-gold color to transcend into the grandmaster realm.

However, it was also at that time that Dyon learned of the highest form of weapon's hell: [Judgement]. It was also then that Dyon understood just where the name 'weapon's hell' stemmed from.

Broken into nine levels, [Judgement] was akin to nine levels of hell, each new level delving into a more savage and depraved landscape. Within these nine levels of hell, the first punishment was [Carnage]!

Unfortunately, the truth of the matter was that Dyon was still too weak to evoke the true strength of even this first level. Although his divine sense was far vaster than even more high dao formation experts, his energy grade was lacking the umph that was necessary.

As things stood now, Dyon could wield the lowest form of moon soul qi. Although its quantity was vast, its quality was far below planet soul qi and leagues from star soul qi. As such, it was impossible to bring out the full strength of these techniques despite having such a vast soul qi reserve. It was also for this very reason that high grade heavenly treasures could hide from his detection and why he had to rely on Little Rain.

Up to now, the only way Dyon could use [Carnage] was by purposely introducing faults into the array. By making it imperfect, he lowered its requirements, but also significantly lowered its power. The issue here was that his methods were crude…. However, what if Dyon found a systematic way to lower these requirements? For example… By using the very technique he had just learned?

Dyon no longer had to stumble around or strain himself to the absolute limit. He had gained the equivalent of a heavenly formula. All he had to do was enter his requirements and an answer would be calculated for him.

[Soul Aid], at Dyon's current level, had four options open to him. Weaken, strengthen, slow, and accelerate.
