Book 7: Chapter 289: Core Teachings (3)

Dyon continued to the next technique, making a mental note to begin practicing these techniques once he grew strong enough.

After all of the pleasant surprises today, Dyon thought that Orcus had run out of things that could stun him. Yet, when he pulled out the next technique, Dyon’s jaw almost hung open. This time, it wasn’t a technique of the Golden Crow Clan, but a technique from the Fire Phoenix Clan!

Dyon often spoke to his wives about cultivation, so he was very much aware of what troubled them. Madeleine had always been worried about her comprehension of Life and Reincarnation. Now that the problem of Life was being solved currently, what she needed was comprehension of the latter. Unfortunately, that didn’t come easy.

Although Madeleine had Amethyst’s legacy, it had to be remembered that the union between Amethyst’s parents was never accepted by the Fire and Ice Phoenix Clans. In fact, it was due to their pursuit that her parents died horrible deaths after her birth. Knowing this, how could it be possible for Amethyst to have learned any of their core teachings? All her life, Amethyst had forged her own path.

Even after Amethyst got her revenge and destroyed all three Phoenix Clans, she was forced to transcend directly afterward, so she never laid a hand on their teachings. Yet, here was one of them in Dyon’s hands now.

The technique in Dyon’s hand had a purpose so shocking that his hands trembled. The technique was titled [Reincarnation of Heaven’s Staircase]. To make a long story short, this technique could be used three times in an individual’s life. For each time it was used, one would be guaranteed a breakthrough without tribulation!

If all three of one’s chances was saved until the day they reached the peak dao realm, those three attempts could be traded in to reach the Higher Existence realm in one leap!

However, there was one very important caveat to the use of this technique. It could only be used by those with the Rebirth Flame. If one attempted to use it without those unique flames, all that awaited you was death!

It was likely because they knew this that the Fire Phoenix Clan didn’t keep a tight lid on this technique. Dyon laughed as he read about how Orcus got swindled into trading his comprehension of the Death Dao for this technique, only to realize he couldn’t use it even if he wanted to.

At the time, Orcus was worried the Elves would interfere with his Higher Existence tribulation, so he wanted to skip the tribulation entirely if he could. He had always heard that the Fire Phoenix Clan had an exaggeratedly high success rate, so he went to them with some offerings. Since they were both Flame Bird Clans, they had a fairly good relationship to begin with.

Still, none of this mattered now. Madeleine ended up benefitting greatly!

Those with weaker talents in the Fire Phoenix Clan usually used this technique after entering the celestial realm. With one use, they could jump from the Lower Celestial Realm to the Peak Celestial Realm. With a second use they could enter the dao realm. And with their last use they could enter the middle dao realm!

Essentially, you were practically guaranteed to become a decent dao expert as long as you entered the celestial realm.

For those who were slightly more talented, they would wait until they became dao experts first, then enter the peak dao realm with their three attempts.

In the end, only the most talented cultivated to the peak dao realm under their own power before entering the Half-Step Transcendent realm in one step!

The best part about this technique was that there were no side effects. There was no drop off in strength or a penalty of cultivation. The only thing that would be lacking was comprehension, but that could be slowly fixed over time.

However, even that wasn’t a big deal. Reason being was that after using this technique, a person’s comprehension of Rebirth would skyrocket and they would grasp a key understanding of the cycle of life and Samsara. If one held back and entered the Half-Step dao realm in one swoop, there was even an incredibly small chance they could advance their Reincarnation Dao into a Law!

The only limitations Dyon hadn’t spoken of was the comprehension of Reincarnation that was necessary. In order to advance into the Higher Existence realm in one fell swoop, a 7^th ranked Reincarnation Dao was needed.

Dyon smiled in excitement, not for himself, but for Madeleine. Because the Fire Phoenix Clan felt bad about swindling Orcus, they left their comprehension of reincarnation as well. Since Orcus’ lineage was connected to the Sovereign Flame, they thought he had a chance of one day finding an unclaimed rebirth flame. With this, both of Madeleine’s problems had been solved.

Finally, there were only four techniques left.

One was [Shadow Escape], a fused movement and defensive technique of the middle divine grade. The next was [Lord Creator], a mystical grade corpse refinement technique. The third was a high divine grade cultivation technique, [Demonic Lore]. And the last was a technique that intrigued Dyon. It was a Dual Cultivation technique titled [Death’s Melody].

Unfortunately, even after going through all of the techniques, Dyon didn’t find what he was looking for. He was hoping that the remaining portions of [Soul Aid] were hidden away here, but unfortunately, they weren’t. Dyon could only hope to find some clues in the future.
