Lilith's eyes widened. 'What nonsense is he talking about… Is he even aware of what saying such a thing to me means?'
"I know what you're thinking, but is there a need to try and see so far ahead? Even if we'll be enemies in the future, grasping hands together now is for the benefit of both sides. I believe even your father would agree, don't you think?"
"You… You know about my father?"
"I know a lot more than you think I do."
"Right… You are the celestial deer sect's successor…"
Dyon smiled, but didn't say much more. He couldn't tell Lilith the real reason he now knew these things.
"My conditions are simple. I don't expect the Devil Cultivators to move on a large scale. In fact, just you few are enough."
Lilith's eyes widened. "Just us?"
Dyon nodded. "The value of you all is more than you think. You were all sent here for what reason?"
Lilith suddenly understood. "We were sent here to gain experience and become strong pillars of the devil quadrants in the future…"
"That's exactly right. If you all grow with me now, I can raise you into excellent pillars. Come the future, when you grasp your positions as the leaders of your Clans and Sects, our alliance will only grow stronger. We'll sweep through the Mortal Plane together.
"If there comes a day where we must point our swords at each other, so be it. But, I'm sure you and your people won't care very much for my idealism, right?"
Lilith unconsciously nodded. No one had even formed an Emperor God Clan in a single lifetime, how could anyone unite an entire Plane in a single lifetime. That was ridiculous.
If anything, Dyon being so open and upfront about his goals now would make this alliance happen in a much smoother fashion. Also, this was something Lilith could decide for herself as well. They had all come here to gain experience. She wasn't supposed to go back home until she could help her father carry his burdens… By the enemies their Clans faced… She'd have to become a Peak Dao Expert at a minimum before she even thought of returning.
"I accept. Me and my companions will become soldiers under your flag and represent the Devil Quadrants in this alliance. What you give us today, we will return in the future."
"Good." Dyon nodded. "You, Sokzac, Rolrol, Asyna and Baccar will represent your Nightmare Palace, Fulgur Clan, Eclipse Sect, Mathilde Clan and the Infernal Beasts respectively as Core Disciples of my Soul Rending Peak. The geniuses that followed you will be named as Inner Disciples. You will receive the same treatment as anyone else who has taken this title.
"Once you break into the celestial realm, I will appoint you as a Vice Commander, your company will include those who followed you here."
After saying these words Dyon's finger flashed, revealing the third Sovereign Spark he had ever formed.
It was only then that Lilith comprehended something major… Dyon had the Sovereign Flame…
**
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
Soul Planet was filled with the fireworks of battle. But, it wasn't an invasion. Rather, it was Lilith unleashing her pent up rage on her celestial trial.
Just minutes ago, Dyon gave Lilith her Sovereign Spark and she seemed to eat it up as though she hadn't seen food in years and the small golden flame was a juicy steak.
But, what happened next made Dyon's lip twitch. She closed her eyes for what might have been only two or three seconds, and in the next instant, a surge of celestial qi unendingly rolled toward her.
Was it even possible to comprehend a higher energy form in two seconds?! And was it really necessary to call down your tribulation with Soul Palace?!
If it wasn't for Dyon's quick reaction, immediately locking everyone down within range of the tribulation and teleporting them away, Lilith would have recklessly caused a disaster. But, somehow watching her swing her sword so fiercely in the air… He lost the will to be angry.
'She didn't even wait to become a pseudo celestial first… But I guess she must have felt she spent enough time tempering her body before…'
Technically speaking, re-tempering the meridians could be done after entering the celestial realm. The reason individuals did it before hand in a pseudo realm is to give themselves an advantage during their trials. Obviously, someone with properly tempered meridians can use their new energies easier.
Dyon never bothered with his pseudo realms because he followed the body refinement path, so any tempering his body needed would be handled by it. In addition, considering how much the Heavens seemed to hate him, that tempering wouldn't matter much. It'd probably just call down an even stronger tribulation like the petty bastard it was.
'Well, at least she can give the disciples something to work toward…'
Many close to where Lilith triggered her tribulation came to spectate. It was a great way to raise the morale of the Mortal Alliance's people. Usually, experts would do these sorts of things in private so that potential failure wouldn't dampen their Clan's Faith, but the people under Dyon were quite confident. Lilith didn't even consider failure.
'This is good too. This is a strong second step…'
The truth of the matter were that Jade's words weren't all she left for Dyon. Within the Life Saving Jade, there were great amounts of information, more information Dyon could ever dream of having.
After Dyon recollected his emotions, the tower spirit unsealed one portion of Dyon's mind's eye locked away by Jade. With it, he found that Jade didn't leave him with just vague hints. He found endless stacks of information… The most important of which were tied to massive future events and the outer quadrants.
The Devil Quadrants.
Jade said to ally with them. Under normal circumstances, this would be stupid. Even if they believed that Jade was still here and Dyon had a Higher Existence by his side, Higher Existence Ravana was far stronger than Jade had ever been.
