Dyon’s divine sense stretched outward. Just like before, it was heavily restricted to just 10% of its original ability, even less than the Golden Fla Mystical World. But, for Dyon, this was still 20 000 km.
It seed that in his absence, but bull-bird had finally given birth to her children. Unlike their mother, these four children stood on all fours instead of twos. It seed their father wasn’t an exact match for their mother, but maybe that was best for the world. If these bull-birds were a species unto themselves, the future of this world would be ruled by these ugly beasts.
The children had sleek black bodies, and they gained horns from their mother’s side along with her overly large head. However, they were back to balance themselves better on four legs as opposed to two.
‘They seem quite… skinny.’ Dyon mumbled to himself. But, when he thought back to the pile of beast dung, he understood that that must have been saved by their mother for nurturing them.
When Dyon turned his senses to the bull-bird, he suddenly felt bad. The leg the bull-bird had used to kick him into the tree back then snapped in two. In fact, the bone still protruded out of what could be considered the heel of that leg. Even worse, it seed to be infected by so gross, overflowing green-beige puss.
‘No wonder her babies are so hungry, she can’t hunt with one of her two legs in that state…’
One had to rember that Dyon’s body weighed one billion jin back then. Although the bull-bird was powerful and had excellent body refinent cultivation, it wasn’t to the point of competing with Dyon’s constitution. Although it was strong enough to kick him away with such force, it wasn’t strong enough to co away unscathed. It was only now Dyon grasped the overbearing nature of his constitution.
Dyon sighed. ‘This is technically my fault, I can’t leave it like this. Although her babies are almost as ugly as her, they’re still babies.’
With a thought, Dyon tested his spatial will abilities. He found that he could flash about a hundred ters now, down from the almost ten kiloter improvent from in his real world.
‘This should be enough. Consider this a thank you for the energy I took from you…’ Dyon muttered to himself. If it hadn’t been for the bull-bird’s energy, he wouldn’t have survived Head Void’s attack.
Cultivation was all about karma. Although Dyon’s strength and comprehension was too low to understand this now, he was still a person who had a hard exterior but a soft disposition. He found it too difficult to ignore the plight of this family, so he took action.
In an instant, his body flickered and he appeared within the hidden den filled with energy stones. He rembered that the first ti he saw this place, he was filled with greed. But, now he was just confused about why this bull-bird mother hadn’t made use of this energy to help her children.
These energy stones weren’t the conventional type from Dyon’s ho. Instead, they were filled with various types of energies he had taken from the beast dung. The only difference was that they weren’t nearly as pure. Dyon estimated that it would take absorbing thousands, if not tens of thousands of one kind to match the equivalent of what the bull-bird had pulled off.
KKKKUUUUAAAAAAHHHHHH!
The mont Dyon appeared, the high-pitched screech of the bull-bird filled his ears.
It tried to stand up and storm toward Dyon, protecting its children to her back, but she stumbled and fell, a pained expression appearing on her large, furless and bull-like face.
The injury to her leg beca worse in an instant. The already protruding bone pushing out further as fresh blue blood began to mix in with the foul stench of puss.
Dyon sighed. ‘It must be that these creatures aren’t intelligent enough to cultivate a thod of extracting the energy from these energy stones, so they can only do it by eating other beasts and refining them within their bodies by instinct.’
Suddenly Dyon’s brows furrowed. ‘Even if these creatures don’t understand this thod, it has to be the case that so of them do. After all, this mother couldn’t have grown so powerful on a whim… Right? Since she ate other beasts with energy to grow powerful, so of them must have more advanced thods of their own.’
Dyon was only partly right. After staying in the den for practically her whole life, the bull-bird had indeed passively absorbed so of the energy of these stones. However, at the sa ti, there were so more intelligent creatures had learned higher level thods.
When these intelligent creatures gave birth with lesser species, this energy would be passed down. Then, unintelligent creatures like this bull-bird would eat their offspring and thus grow more powerful.
Dyon sucked in a cold breath. ‘These higher-level creatures must be the true overlords of this space… This bull-bird is nothing compared to them…’
Thinking about how powerful this bull-bird was, Dyon couldn’t help but cringe. It might have injured itself killing him, but think about it in another matter. This bull-bird was actually capable of sending one billion jin flying with a single strike! Even Dyon couldn’t do such a thing as matters stood.
Dyon held up his hands, trying to show that he was no harm. With a thought, he extracted so energy he had taken from the beast dung and sent it out as a stream of energy toward the four bull-bird babies.
This projection of energy was sothing only celestials could do. But, now that Dyon had stepped passed the normal realms of sainthood, he had gained so of the lesser abilities only a celestial would have.
In the next mont, the scrawny babies suddenly puffed up with life. They ran over toward Dyon excitedly, dodging the attempts of their mother to stop them.
Dyon smiled lightly. “It’s your turn now.”
