Asyna’s scream seed to shatter the air, screeching and clawing its way through as though it ca from the mouth of a banshee.
The energy radiating from her seed to have about the sa level of prowess as saint energy, but its density was such that it was very clear that if it was used to power Asyna’s attacks instead, the results would be far more devastating.
Dyon frowned, imdiately leaping backward to avoid Asyna’s slashing claw.
Before, Asyna already had an off-putting, murderous air about her. But, now, it seed to have multiplied several hundred-fold, causing all those who saw her to involuntarily shake.
What those of the audience didn’t know was that the do was constantly filtering the energy Asyna released down, not allowing them to fully understand just what was happening. Of course, this wasn’t for the sake of those here, they weren’t even worthy of coming into Lilith’s line of sight. The ones Lilith was worried about were those powerful entities who frequented Soul Market. Although they tolerated the existence of such a place because it brought them endless benefits, what they didn’t know was that it was their Devil Path cultivators that were the masterminds behind it.
However, Dyon was feeling the full brunt of it. It was just that he didn’t have the sa amount of knowledge as those old fogies. No matter how intelligent he was, there were so things that wouldn’t be found in books and could only be passed on through wisdom and word of mouth.
That said, this didn’t an that Dyon didn’t have so guesses of his own. One thing he knew for sure was that the reason this energy was so similar to saint energy, yet not at the sa ti, was because it originated from a different path of cultivation.
After eting Luna in the second trial world, Dyon had been opened up to the world of energies. He had even begun to think that if so many different types of energies existed, was it really necessary to use the conventional thod of cultivation?
Normally, a martial warrior would build an energy foundation, first tempering the body with essence energy, before allowing it flow into one’s ridians. Then the process would be repeated with saint energy, then celestial energy, then enigmatic energy. However, what if there was another path? What if there were hundreds of other paths that allowed one to build themselves a different foundation?
Clearly, Asyna had a foundation built on the conventional thod, or else she wouldn’t be able to use saint energy. But, now it seed she had tapped into a different thod of cultivation entirely. What did this an?
Asyna slowly stood, piercing toward Dyon with a blood red gaze even as the eye in the sky pointed toward him as well.
Her hand stretched toward her spear in the distance, causing it to wobble once before shooting out of the ground at blinding speeds and charging into her grasp.
‘What the hell was that…’ Dyon’s frown deepened.
Dyon had never heard of such telekinetic abilities existing in the martial world. In theory, one would be able to imitate such an ability with wind will, but Dyon’s Perception would have caught on to that if she had. If Dyon wasn’t wrong, Asyna had just made her spear, that was no doubt several hundred thousand jin in weight for itself, fly toward her without using a will at all.
‘Old Lizard,’ Dyon communicated with the Dragon King, ‘Was that her weapon’s spirit that did that?’
The Dragon King snorted, filling Dyon’s ears with an ancient and rumbling voice. Clearly he didn’t like Dyon’s nickna for him. They rarely communicated with one another, but Dyon still dared to be so casual with him as though he wasn’t a lauded transcendent being.
‘No. That weapon is a Supre level one, but it’s still not good enough to have its own spirit. Usually only Legendary path weapons would have them. Also, I’m sure you’ve noticed already, but you should be careful of this do, or that white haired little girl’s words will co true, you really won’t know how you died.’
‘Then do you know what’s going on here?’
‘She cultivates a different path, it’s known as the Devil Path. Or, rather, she cultivates both the Devil and Conventional Path. I didn’t think it would still exist at this ti.’
‘The Devil Path?’ Dyon’s frown deepened as he prepared to receive Asyna’s strike.
‘You should be careful, she’s easily about five tis more powerful than before. It would be as much as ten tis if your Conventional Path quadrants didn’t heavily suppress those of the Devil Path. That said, you should be very wary of her once you enter the tower. Either that, or you should probably kill her now to avoid such future problems.’
‘Is this Devil Path anything like the red crystal will of the Ipsum clan? Because if she’s been sacrificing people for her power, I’ll have no qualms with killing them all right now.’ Dyon’s anger congealed. That white haired beauty had already pissed him off enough for him to kill her, if they had sothing like this on their list of sins, Dyon wouldn’t mind going all out with them.
‘No. It’s nothing like that. Although the Devil Path do have so cultivators who do such things, they’re in the minority. Just like there are so of the Conventional path do horrible things for power as well. There’s not much of a difference between the paths in terms of morality. The only reason why they are enemies is the sa reason why those of the Soul Path and Energy Path warred against each other in this quadrant: Greed.’
