After all, the Pakal Universe only gave him small percentage points. And, from his understanding, even when evolving to the comet grade, the difference shouldn't be been so drastic. He had been expecting 10% at most, yet it was actually 20!

It was then that the Soul Spirit informed him that its true potential should have been closer to 200%, similar to Planet Grade increases, however it had weakened far too much.

Despite this reality, Dyon wasn't disappointed. In fact, he was pleasantly surprised. Thanks to the Soul Spirit's influence, the Pakal Universe which should have increased from 3% to 5% after he entered the Comet Grade, actually now gave the newborns of the Mortal Alliance 7% stronger bodies than they would otherwise have.

Finally, Dyon faced the Chaos Universe. He could have never expected that that battle would have been even more difficult. In fact, the first time Dyon challenged it, he had no choice but to retreat.

The Chaos Spirit had become a corrupted and malignant spirit. Before, Dyon hadn't wanted to conquer it at all, for fear of what it would do to his Alliance. However, the Soul Spirit encouraged him to do so, claiming that it would have no problem suppressing it.

According to the Universe Spirit, the Celestial Deer Sect had wanted to subdue the Chaos Spirit long ago because of the benefits it would bring. Unfortunately, they didn't have Dyon's Immortal Sense and couldn't find it to begin with. In the end, they were destroyed before they got the chance.

Dyon knew that he was too weak to take hold of the spirit after his first attempt, so he had no choice but to train his body further. Thankfully, he had two great resources to accomplish this: his constitution's world and chaos universe itself.

Dyon, who was no longer afraid of chaos universe's corruption, began to [Devour] beast after beast. Last time he came here, he was only able to battle essence and saint embryonic infernal beasts, but now he could challenge even celestial and dao infernal beasts.

Thanks to [Devour], his efficiency in assimilating their strength increased as well. In the end, he was able to add 40 billion jin to his weight and reach the midway point of the Golden Silk Realm.

Even this was only barely enough to defeat the Chaos Spirit, and that was after Dyon used [Titan Emperor's Will]. But, when Dyon sensed the changes, he felt that it was all worth it.

After conquering 200 universes and reaching the Second Comet Grade, the newborns of the Mortal Alliance gained 16% stronger bodies, 40% stronger souls, and from the Chaos Spirit… beasts gained 50% more bloodline talent and fertility!

Dyon suddenly understood why the Celestial Deer Sect would want after Chaos Universe so much. The Celestial Beasts had both bloodline and fertility problems. To gain a 50% boost couldn't be looked down upon!

After this change, not only did the former Five Beast Clan Alliance begin to steadily grow in power, but the Kitsune who had migrated into Dyon's territory began to slowly regain their might.

These numbers were great, but to Dyon, it was an incredibly sobering experience. If he gained this many benefits from just 200 universes, how many benefits did the Sprite Alliance gain since they controlled over 8000? What of the Sapientia and the Nephilim?

He couldn't lower his guard at all. In fact, he had to press forward with even more fervor and ambition.

Since the Kong and Grand Templar Sect hadn't been qualified to attend the Federation's Parliament, Dyon's conquering of them flew under the radar.

Dyon secretly used the Jafari Clan treasure to move their territory into his own. This way, he wouldn't have to worry about others claiming their universes with their own points.

Still, to maintain the guise of playing nice, Dyon used his excess points to claim not only the 99 universes, but also the Grand Templar Sect territory which was adjacent to the 99 universes, and Kong Clan territory, which was adjacent to the Grand Templar Sect.

The end result was Dyon having 430 universes under his care. Of course, Dyon was arrogantly counting the 99 universes among this 430 number, but he had only actually conquered 299 of them. This was because Dyon had yet to find an appropriate universe to take as his 300th. He didn't want a universe that could only provide mediocre benefits, or else it would adversely affect the foundation of his Empire.

In the end, Dyon turned his gaze toward Luna's territory. The 18 quadrants she controlled were without a doubt the best choice. They would be able to provide the newborns of the Martial Alliance with deep elemental affinities, after all, it was Sprite territory.

However, Dyon knew he had to be careful. Any dip in Faith, even if it was only a single universe, would be immediately sensed by the Higher Existences of the Sprite Alliance. In addition, they would be able to tell it came from Luna's territory as well.

If he acted brazenly, he wouldn't only put himself in danger, but Luna as well. For now, he could only forget it. 299 universes was already enough for him to not be at a disadvantage in the tower quadrants. Instead, he felt like he should invest more time in solidifying what he already had.

In truth, with his current defenses, he didn't believe any invasion of the Ancient Battlefield would have an easy time, especially considering Dyon had trump cards even within the battlefield itself. But, he had to be cautious… this wasn't a game, there were no second chances.

Though Dyon had undergone vast improvements in just the last few years, he knew well that he was still unable to battle even the weakest Higher Existence, let alone a Higher Existence who chose to use Faith.

This wasn't the time for him to become comfortable… Especially since his end goal wasn't to battle a mere Higher Existence… He was aiming for something much greater.
