Book 10: Chapter 127: Action (3)

Could Dyon now fight Higher Existences with his so-called Vajra Body? He was unsure.

He knew his soul was completely overshadowed Higher Existences, but he didn’t know if this was a perfect one to one translation with his Vajra Body. Either way, it was something he would have to slowly figure out. If he couldn’t get some benefits from losing an eye, wouldn’t it be too pitiful?

Dyon violently coughed up blood as he sat on all fours. It was truly unsightly of him, but he had never experienced such a thing before.

That eye was truly too frightening. Without regard for even its own owner, it did as it pleased. What the hell kind of ability was that?

It wasn’t as though Dyon needed his eyes. At his current level, his Immortal Sense could more than make up for it. But that didn’t mean it was a pleasing feeling to suffer such a loss.

‘What the hell is a Vajra Body old lizard.’

‘Even my main body isn’t in a high enough position to answer that question, what the hell do you expect from me?’

Dyon sneered. He wasn’t in a very good mood, so he seemed apt to take it out on the poor Dragon King.

‘Are you telling me that the Mighty Dragon King is a mere snake on the Immortal Plane?’

‘What do you know, boy. Us ascenders are at a terrible disadvantage once we reach that place. Though we’re not as discriminated against in comparison to those with mortal bodies, it’s barely a step above. One is an ant and the other is a worm. Barely a difference at all.’

‘Abraxus is definitely an ascender, so your complaints are falling on deaf ears.’

‘How do you know that name?’ The old lizard’s monotone voice finally turned to surprise.

‘It seems my connections are better than yours too, old lizard.’ Dyon said as his body was wracked with pain. ‘Not only have I awakened something you never have, but I know people you don’t. Isn’t this too pitiful?’

Maybe if the Dragon King had any tangible form, he would be gritting his teeth now.

‘Abraxus and his disciples are obviously a special anomaly. Only they and a handful of others have reached such heights after ascending from the mortal plane. I naturally cannot compare to them.’

‘Are you not only number 3 behind the Dragon Emperor and Dragon God of the mortal plane’s Dragon race? How are you in such a state?’ Dyon stopped joking around and asked seriously. At this very least, since no one dared to approach him in his current state, this conversation took his mind off of the pain he was experiencing.

The Dragon King sighed. ‘Beasts transcend by shattering Heaven’s Chains, but this isn’t all it’s cracked up to be.

‘On the mortal plane, it makes your cultivation speed incomparably quick. However, that is all. On the Immortal plane, anyone with an Immortal Body turns their nose up at such a thing.

‘In addition, after shattering Heaven’s Chains, one must then create their own path. Which means that the later one succeeds, the worse off you are. I may have been the Dragon King, but I didn’t manage to throw off these fetters until I reached the Peak Dao Realm. Though this was already better than most Dragons who only manage to succeed after entering Half-Step Transcendence, it was still too late.

‘The Dragon God succeeded in the Saint Realm. The Dragon Emperor succeeded in the Celestial Realm. They’re obviously not individuals I can compare to.’

Dyon frowned, thinking of Chenglei and the beast babies. They had all succeeded only after entering the Dao Realm, especially Chenglei who had already been at the Peak Dao Realm. He had originally been very happy about this, but who knew there were such hidden troubles?

‘It seems I have to have those five focus on their comprehensions… But this Vajra Body, even if you don’t know it all, tell me what you do know.’

‘The Vajra Body is one of the pinnacle abilities of the soul path. To those with small attainments, its most important toward amplifying one’s comprehension. However, to those with great attainments in the soul path, it’s a great battle weapon.

‘For example, some with sword manifestations upon reaching this realm would make their Vajra Body into a nascent weapon, making it into their lifelong partner. Some of the best treasures on the Immortal Plane are the nascent weapons of long passed experts forged of their Vajra Bodies.

‘However… humanoid manifestations like yours are exceedingly rare. Even I can only think of a very select few who have living manifestations. What you can do with yours should of course far surpass this narrow option.

‘Still, you need to be exceedingly careful using your Vajra Body on the Mortal Plane. It’s not an existence meant to appear here…

‘You still have little understanding of the Immortal Plane, but even Immortal Law Realm experts aren’t guaranteed to form Vajra Bodies. The attainment in Dao Heart State needed are simply too high.

‘If you use this Vajra Body too freely, you may very well catch the attention of the Heavens. At that point, it may forcefully send you to the Immortal Plane!

‘One half of the reason why I told you to evoke your sealed world was to protect this plane, yes. But the other half was to help you hide from the eyes of the Heavens. If you exhibit strength too far exceeding the Mortal Plane, it will take action without a doubt. By then, all you have built here would be for naught.’
