Chapter 2267 - Empire (3) (1/2)

Seeing Dyon's surprised expression, Saru grinned.

This was no small advantage. Overlords who entered using their qi strength or their comprehension would always be directly rejected by the Heavens. However, those who entered with their bodies or their souls had much more leeway!

One only needs to look at Dyon to understand this. Dyon soul had long since transcended the bounds of the mortal plane. However, wasn't he still here?

This reality is what led to the convention the qi cultivation was the most important. Even one's tribulation's strength was entirely dependent on their qi cultivation talent. This was why Dyon had never dared to absorb the energy kernel despite having it by his side all of this time.

A comprehension breakthrough was slightly different. Eli could only use comprehensions up to the 9th Dao Realm. This was the hard cap of the Mortal Plane. Those who comprehended Laws were essentially forcefully creating a connection to the Immortal Plane, which is why they would be rejected by the mortal plane.

Qi Overlord. Body Overlord. Soul Overlord. And Ascended Overlord.

With Saru breaking through as a Body Overlord, she had suddenly become a massive trump card. Being able to use the strength of an Overlord on the mortal plane was massive!

When the second phase began and the Failed Clans could begin to enter their mortal plane, Saru's role would be crucial.

In fact, she wasn't the only Body Overlord their Mortal Empire had. The other was obviously his own father-in-law and Amphorae's father.

Body Overlords were incredibly rare due to the difficulty of the path. Of course, Soul Overlords like Dyon were even rarer, but this didn't make this formerly stated truth any less meaningful.

Dyon smiled brightly. ”This is great. I was wondering why it took you so long to breakthrough. It seems I was worried for nothing.”

With this, Dyon could finally sigh in relief. All of those he cared the most about now had the strength to protect themselves. Well… There was still Lilith left, but not everything could be perfect. He wasn't a God just yet.

In the last 80 years, he had refined pills like madman. He had hardly cultivated himself, in fact. But, this was the most fun he had had in a long time.

His wives thought he was crazy, but after the meeting ended with those Outer Powers, Dyon started from scratch, laying a new foundation for him.
