Chapter 1631 Four
It didn\'t sit right with Dyon, but who was he to impose his values onto their family? Still, he would never get used to walking in on Ace, King and Jack taking turns mating with their only sister, Queen. That… He could definitely do without.
Dyon had tried to give their mother a proper burial many times before, but the four of them had stopped him every time. In the end, he chose to leave her remains here.
"Alright you four, are you ready?"
The sound of a horse\'s braying crossed with deep bestial growls filled the underground cave.
Dyon leapt onto Ace\'s back, stretching out his divine sense as far as it would go.
He only had 20% of his soul strength and the environment of his constitution\'s world only allowed him 10% of his normal range, so he could only see a span of 10 000 km. Still, that was far more than anyone else would have in this situation.
"Let\'s go hunting."
Dyon sped forward with four, streaking across his constitution\'s world for the first time. Since he was here, he might as well build and army.
It was currently impossible for Dyon to take anything that wasn\'t inanimate in or out with him, which was why even Little Yang and Yin couldn\'t follow him here but his treasures had. Maybe because his connection with his constitution\'s world wasn\'t strong enough. But, if there was a day he leapt over this hurdle, wouldn\'t it be nice to have such a thing ready and waiting for him?

Back within Calming Lake, 80% of Dyon continued to meditate silently, having still not moved a single inch.
He could feel the swirling thoughts around him. Each seemed capable of crushing him consciousness to nothing. But he continued to sit unperturbed.
He was an individual that sat atop the Fifth Trial rankings for a reason. Him losing his mind to his Chaos Flames wasn\'t about his own weakness, but more about just how powerful his flames were. Compared to them? This tier of the Calming Lake was nothing but a joke…
However, the streams of consciousness refused to acknowledge that, so Dyon took matters into his own hands.
\'Since you won\'t move forward for me, I\'ll step forward myself. Let\'s see if you dare to encroach upon my mind then.\'
If others heard these thoughts, they\'d sigh. Didn\'t you want to be more cool-headed? It\'s hadn\'t even been all of ten minutes yet, but you were already charging ahead…
A battle erupted in the middle of the dense forest. Dyon watched on as King, Queen and Jack pincered an opponent from all sides.
The creature was grotesque. It stood at about a meter and a half tall, but the length of its body was easily over 3 meters. Its skin was covered in the bumps and warts of a muddied toad, while its eyes took up more than 50% of its flattened face.
It could only be described as a cross between a frog, toad and fish. In reality, most of its body was formed of the former two animals, while it was just its face that resembled a fish, especially the vertical slits of its oversized eyes.
Much like one might expect, its jumping ability was exceptional. After springing itself down to its 1.5 meter height, it could explode from its hind legs with such force that even the ground Dyon found impossible to penetrate splintered.
Luckily, the four bronzed – a name Dyon gave them because it felt inappropriate to continue calling them bull-birds – were already stronger than their mother.
Whether she was injured or not, their mother had the ability to send Dyon\'s billion jin body flying tens of meters. That strength was on the threshold of a dao expert. So, for her children to already be stronger in what amounts to about 10 years was highly impressive and could be pegged to be a result of their evolution.
Their strength in combination with Dyon\'s intelligence made it difficult for any creatures to match their combined power.
This was another one of Dyon\'s advantages in this world. In this sort of environment, body refinement was highly incentivized, but qi cultivation was nigh impossible, especially with the low intelligence of these beasts. By extension, soul cultivation was practically mythos in this place, at least in the area Dyon was currently in.
In order to soul cultivate, one had to remember that it was necessary to make use of your cultivation technique to convert conventional qi into soul qi. However, in a place where it was already difficult to gather up conventional qi, how much more impossible would it be to create soul qi?
This reality made the beasts Dyon came across incredibly susceptible to his soul strength. As long as they were subdued, even with how much more difficult it was for Dyon to use his techniques, sealing them and bringing them under his wings was simple.
However, even though Dyon could likely wantonly do so, he had yet to subdue any creatures other than the four bronzed. What he wanted as a group of creatures as strong as these four, not a collection of the mediocre. So, he wanted beasts with the capacity for evolution.
Why? Because Dyon remembered very clearly that he had sensed human settlements in this place. And from what he knew… Humans were the far more dangerous creatures. If he wanted to make his constitution\'s world his own, he had to be prepared before he even thought of approaching those settlements.
Still, hunting this fish-frog creature wasn\'t useless to him. Much like their mother, the bronzed grew stronger based on what they ate.
They weren\'t the only ones either. Dyon pushed down his disgust and ate the meat of these grotesque creatures as well. As he did so, he felt his stagnant body cultivation steadily growing. It all looked the same inside his body anyway, who cared if what he ate looked gross. Its nutritional value was even higher than the Blue Whales he had subdued.
