Rebirth of the Nameless Immortal God



At the same time, Dyon didn't want his people to close themselves off from the martial world entirely, so he slowly implemented certain things. For example, instead of rebuilding them 'the internet', he had them slowly begin to use the Mortal Network instead, allowing them to become familiar with arrays and their functions.

In addition to this, Dyon also added many other miscellaneous things. He replaced much of the travel with teleportation arrays, he filled libraries with both mortal world knowledge and rudimentary martial world knowledge, and he made certain to show them some of the fanciful life cultivators could enjoy.

To accomplish the latter, he relied on the 36 geniuses. At the same time that he used them to ease the mortals into the martial world, it was also a method of easing their minds as well.

Dyon hoped that this would help them climb over their final mental barriers and become the talents they were meant to be.

By the time the Ancient Battlefield descended, the population of mortals unable to cultivate would be long gone. However, Dyon didn't see this as a bad thing. Though it was foul that their chance to cultivate was taken from them, it was better for them to not see what was to come…

Dyon believe 5 to 10 years would be all it would take for the mortals to begin showing their true potential, the potential The Entity tried to snatch from them.

After accomplishing these tasks, Dyon wanted to head to the celestial floors, but then he remembered it would be inconvenient for him to lose control over Low Gold City. Instead, he sent Zaire and the new functions of the Mortal Network to directly speak to the Flaming Lily Sect disciples still holed up in Middle Lily City.

By now, those who had been in the city were in lockdown, while those who were foolish enough to have left had likely been slaughtered by the Sapientia already. For now, they were safe. But, it would only be a little more than a year before the protection Madeleine left was gone. The Zaire could implement his won rewards on top of that as well. But even still, time was limited.

Dyon was also certain that the Sapientia wouldn't be likely to allow him to implement his own rewards on this city so easily. They were likely waiting by the celestial doors to the middle tier to intercept him. The next time Dyon stepped onto the celestial floors, he had to be powerful enough to take whatever they threw at him.

However, that didn't mean Dyon wouldn't do anything in the interim. He realized that he had been falling too far into the martial world's school of thought and trying to use his fists to solve everything. It was time he kept a calm and rational mind and used his head.

Even if he couldn't take full control of the Flaming Lily Sect now, he could definitely lay down the building blocks to do so. After all, didn't he have the perfect mole right beside him?

The Sapientia closing off information acted as a double-edged sword. While it was true that not many outside knew what happened that day, it also meant that the Flaming Lily Sect wasn't aware of Yandevere's true affiliations either.

Dyon quietly organized the disciples and fed his plans for Yandevere to execute.

Finally, he was prepared to enter Calming Lake.

...

"Beyond this space is Calming Lake, Sect Master." Damaris took on an incredibly respectful attitude that stunned the elders of her Clan that remained. They had assumed she would hate Dyon's guts just like all the other True Gods did, but she had actually brought him here… To grow stronger?... And why was she calling him Sect Master?

However, the elders had something else on their minds entirely. Just a few years ago, they had suffered untold humiliation at the hands of a single red-haired little girl, and yet she had just casually reappeared here as though she hadn't almost killed them all.

"There are a few things you should know about our Calming Lake first, though." Damaris explained slowly. "It is rare for us to allow those not of our kin to enter. Calming Lake is the culmination of several conscious streams from the very dawn of our Agios Clan, until now.

"I'm sure you already know, but we allowed Little Sister Lyla to enter so easily precisely because of this reason. Her stream of consciousness is levels above others because she is a True Empath, the depth of her mental state is unlike anything we've ever seen before. In reality, her entering our Calming Lake was less of a help for her, and more of a help for us. Our Calming Lake has never been more effective than the day Little Sister Lyla chose to enter."

This was right. There was no such thing as a free lunch in the martial world. Even as a Dragon Clan that would never harm children below their station due to their ingrained arrogance, the Agios Clan would never allow just anyone to enter their Clan's treasured place as they pleased.

However, Little Lyla was an exception because of this Stream of Consciousness concept Damaris was speaking about. Lyla's views were far broader than anyone could imagine, even at such a young age, because of her existence as a True Empath. Though the Calming Lake helped her, it was probably more accurate to say that she helped the Calming Lake.

"This Stream of Consciousness is a concept of our Agios Clan and it's tied to our comprehensions of mental state.

"Mental State is a difficult to comprehend notion and I'm not fit to explain it to you, but what I can say is that it's tied to one's Dao Heart and mental stability.

"One's Stream of Consciousness is the culmination of your thoughts, experiences, and mental acuity. How intelligent you are, how deep your thoughts are, how sure you are in those thoughts … The ideas it encompasses are endless. So, as you might have guessed by now, entering the Calming Lake is also extremely dangerous…"
