Reaper of the Martial World

Book 1: Chapter 28: Behind the Scenes

Dyon closed the door to his room, choosing to use a concealment and defensive formation as opposed to his metal disk. He felt safer that way.

Little Black flashed and entered Dyon’s storage ring, he didn’t like being confined to such a small space.

Madeleine giggled, “are you going to take that shirt off? It’s still wet you know.”

Dyon gave Madeleine an evil grin, “if you wanted me to take off my shirt, you just had to ask you know.”

Madeleine smiled, then reclined in a chair, crossing her legs. The flash of milky white Dyon caught through the leg slit of the dress made his heart beat quicken, “well? Go on. I’d better like what I see, or else I’ll have to replace you.”

“Oh? So, you like playing games,” Dyon smiled and walked to Madeleine.

He took off his shirt, causing Madeleine’s beautiful face to slightly redden. Her breathing quickened as Dyon placed his hands on the arm rests of the chair.

“So?” Dyon asked.

Madeleine didn’t seem to be listening as her delicate hand touched Dyon’s tanned chest.

Dyon leaned forward and lightly kissed her neck, forcing Madeleine to let out a breath.

“Passable,” she said faintly, rubbing her cheek against Dyon’s as if to ask for his lips.

Dyon gladly obliged, kissing her fiercely as he felt her hands wrap around his neck.

Dyon found his hands invaded by softness as they trailed their way up Madeleine’s dress, stopping on her irresistible hips and playing with the straps of her underwear.

Madeleine’s hands grabbed the sides of Dyon’s cheeks, unwilling to let his lips go. Her soft moans filled the room as she let herself go. Although she had been cured, the disposition of her god level body was inclined towards intimate contact. Add to the fact that she had been feeling pent up for weeks, and this release was exactly what she needed.

Dyon slowly pulled away, looking into Madeleine’s golden eyes.

Dyon grinned, “I have something I want you to wear.”

Madeleine looked surprised, slightly embarrassed that Dyon’s hands were still under the straps of her underwear.

Pulling back, Dyon flicked his wrists and a pair of grey sweatpants and a white T shirt appeared in Dyon’s hands.

An incredulous look appeared on Madeleine’s face, before she burst into a fit of laughter.

Dyon’s smile widened, “once you try it, I promise you you’ll never want to wear anything else.”

Madeleine said nothing else as she stood, allowing her dress to fall to the ground under Dyon’s disbelieving eyes.

A pair of pure white undergarments appeared before Dyon. It was laced and exquisite, but couldn’t compare to the woman wearing it.

‘don’t get a boner, don’t ge – ah fuck it,’ Dyon could only bitterly smile.

Madeleine smiled, pushing Dyon onto the bed, “you might as well give me a clean pair of boxers too. It’s only right I get the full experience.”

Dyon had never felt so happy before. With a beaming smile he pulled out a pair.

Madeleine smirked and turned around, gentle falling onto Dyon’s lap. Dyon groaned, ‘she knows exactly what she’s doing.’

Madeleine slowly raising her hands to her back, unstrapping her bra and letting it fall from her shoulders.

Dyon’s breathing was erratic as he pulled her tightly into his chest, almost imperceptibly rubbing his member against her.

“You’re so rowdy, how am I supposed to change if you’re holding on so tightly,” Madeleine said trying to keep her voice from shaking.

But Dyon didn’t seem to be listening as his hands found their way to her chest, “god bless.”

Dyon felt like he was heaven.

“mm,” Madeleine couldn’t help a moan from her lips.

She slowly slid her underwear down, letting Dyon run his hands along her body.

Dyon couldn’t help spinning her around, kissing her firmly.

Madeleine moaned as she felt Dyon’s strong hands grab onto her ass, pulling her into his lap.

Dyon looked up at the heavily breathing Madeleine grinning, “it seems the winter solstice really took a toll on you, hmm?”

Madeleine held onto Dyon’s face, looking down into his eyes with fervent passion, “hmph, you’re going to have to marry me before you get to have all of me.”

Dyon smiled bitterly, but then he grinned, thinking of something.

“I wonder what would happen if I used my aurora to increase your sensitivity,” an evil smile appeared on Dyon’s face.

“Wai – mmmmm”

Before Madeleine could respond, a delicate flame had appeared in Dyon’s hand, slipping slowly along her leg.

Dyon turned Madeleine around, gently kissing on her neck. A whisper sounded in Madeleine’s ear that made her shiver with endless pleasure, “how about we get rid of all that pent-up frustration?”

Dyon’s hands continued gently teasing Madeleine’s legs, letting the aurora flame slowly increase her pleasure by manipulating her energy flow.

Madeleine was gasping for breath, digging her nails into Dyon’s arm. Just as she thought this couldn’t possibly get any more intense, she felt Dyon’s hand finally reach her treasured place.

Madeleine gasped, moaning “Dyon…”

Dyon shivered hearing her call, but that just spurred him on.

Soon, Madeleine was sleeping soundly in Dyon’s sweat pants and shirt after they had taken a shower.

Dyon gently moved her hair from her face, letting her sleep on his bare chest. He soon fell into a relaxed sleep too.

“Are you certain, Chenglei?” An elder shrouded in darkness spoke with a raspy voice.

“Yes, father. I am certain he said he was a member of the Celestial Deer Sect.”

“…, since he’s so confident, it is likely that our current clan strength can’t deal with the life saving treasures he has…”

“Father, he killed an essence gathering expert like it was nothing. I’m afraid if we want to deal with this situation, we’ll have to awaken the ancient ancestors from their slumber.”

“Absolutely not. What kind of laughing stock would we be using those experts against a child. However, you are right. His threat cannot be underestimated. According to the records, the 25^th White Mother was a very prideful person. I am certain that she would rather the whole clan die out than let someone subpar be the successor. His future will be bright… He must die as soon as possible,” the raspy voice said faintly.

“Should we enlighten the other clans?”

“Impossible. Although we won the war, the toll was heavy. For now, we’ll see if we can handle the situation ourselves. Did you receive a quota to enter the land?”

“Yes, father. I hid myself well. I managed to earn an inconspicuous spot.”

“Good. If I’m not wrong, this opening is special. Those stupid big sects don’t even know what they’re getting themselves into. If it wasn’t for the Pakal Clans blood sacrifice technique, they could have spent 10,000 years more trying to properly charge their treasure before finally managing to open the world.”

Chenglei’s eyes widened, “just who made that world?”

“If I’m not wrong, he or she was definitely an existence that surpassed the Doa Formation stage.”

Chenglei drew in a sharp breath.

“In fact, I’m certain that if it wasn’t for the world wanting to be found, those weak sects would have never even come close to it… what I don’t know is why it wanted to be found…”

Chenglei remained silent.

“I’ll give you a treasure. When fighting for the inheritance, it will come in handy. But, you must remember that your top priority is to kill this successor. Although such an inheritance would speed up our comeback, I believe the opening of a world of this magnitude wouldn’t escape the notice of the God Clan younger generation. Although you are talented, you’ve been stifled by our lack of resources. Until we can fix that, you won’t be enough to fight them I’m afraid…”

“I understand father. The Daiyu Clan will rise again.”

“Ai. Although you won’t be able to gain the main inheritance, there should be plenty of other treasures. Gain what you can while protecting your life. You are our future.”

Chenglei nodded heavily, bearing the responsibility on his shoulders.

The alluring aroma of food slowly woke Madeleine up, “mm.”

Opening her eyes, she found a banquet laid out on a table that definitely wasn’t in the room before.

Madeleine’s eyes widened, giving a confused look to Dyon who was looking at her with a gentleness that made her blush, “it’s just the two of us, why’d you bring all this food?”

Dyon was stunned by Madeleine’s appearance. Her cascading hair. The way her braless chest bounced through his white T shirt. The adorable look she had wearing sweat pants too many sizes bigger than her. Dyon was intoxicated.

“oh!” Dyon said with a grin, “This feast is actually for me, but you can have some of it if you want.”

Madeleine looked at Dyon like he was crazy. But, the look soon disappeared as he watched him eat plate after plate after plate.

“you’re a glutton,” Madeleine said exasperatedly.

Between bites, Dyon unleashed his devilishly handsome smile.

Soon, Dyon had Madeleine in his arms as he fiddled with a projector system. Madeleine rested her cheek against Dyon’s, watching him work.

“What exactly is this for?” she couldn’t help asking.

“I’m about to set up some of my favorite movies for us to watch together,” Dyon said with a smile.

“Movies?” Madeleine looked confused. She had learned a whole bunch of new things about the human world from Dyon. Sweat pants was one of them, and she had to admit that they were very comfortable.

“sometimes it surprises me what your martial world does and doesn’t have. But, I guess it would be kind of weird if such powerful people wanted to watch people do superhuman things they could already do.”

Madeleine gently placed her hands on Dyon’s after he released the projection into the air and wrapped his arms around her.

“Movies are just plays on a screen. They tell stories about the most fantastical things. Although they’re probably decidedly less fantastical here.”

Madeleine watched with curiosity as a list of options appeared.

“Choose whichever one calls out to you the most,” said Dyon with a smile.

“hmm,” Madeleine thought for a moment, “the one with the short man looks odd, let’s watch that one.”

Dyon selected The Lord of the Rings and watched in satisfaction as Madeleine lost herself in its world.

Tammy stood silently, looking on to an Elder and a young man who were sparring with each other.

Soon, the young man let out a roar before using the last of his stamina. The elder calmly reflected the blow, allowing the young man to catch his breath.

“Your rate of improvement is impressive. Go and rest. I don’t want you cultivating for the next few days so you can be in optimal condition for the world opening. You’re our future, you must do your best to gain this inheritance. I’m sure you understand that we slowed our plans substantially by diverting power to ensure its opening. Don’t let us down.”

The young man stood tall after catching his breath. He was clearly a man of few words, but, his aura was suffocating. His blue eyes were sharp and his blond hair reached the ground. His muscles rippled as he stretched to his full 2.5 meter height. After nodding towards Tammy, the young man slowly left.

‘First brother’s progress is indeed impressive…’

Without turning to Tammy, the elder’s voice rang out, “your talent only pales to your elder brother, Tammy. Your talent allowed you to not begin cultivating until you were 16, yet even without possessing a god level constitution, you’ve already broken to and now stand firmly in the meridian formation realm. Both you and your brother will do us proud…” he said faintly.

After reaching a throne, the elder sat down slowly, “so, what brings you here today?”

“Father, I believe Baal has put us in a bad situation.”

“Hmm? How so?”

“In the Elvin Forest, he raped and killed Ava, the younger sister of a boy we killed for discovering our plans that time.”

The elder’s aura darkened, “I hope you’re not asking me to seek revenge for your friend. Although Baal is unruly, he is still a talent. So talented that even Dagon or Blade might not be a match for him if he’s serious. I allow you all to compete amongst yourselves. Once you can defeat him, then you can seek your own revenge.”

Tammy shook her head, “that isn’t it father. This Ava survived and is also not scared of appearing before us. Even to the point of glaring at me. I’m sure you can realize what that could mean as much as I do.”

The elder’s aura sharpened, “this… could indeed be troublesome. You may go… I’ll also allow you to choose a suitable punishment for Baal. Do not cripple or kill him…” the elder’s voice sounded faintly.

After Tammy left, the elder fell into deep thought, ‘it seems we much prepare for the worst case… war may be inevitable. Let’s hope that this girl just doesn’t understand how high the heavens are… but if it’s a case of her having suitable backing to oppose us, I may need to alert the supreme elders…’

Outside the room, Tammy was clenching her fists, ‘this could work in my favor too… this could work…’

“Let’s go out tomorrow,” Madeleine said, lying comfortably in Dyon’s arms.

Dyon was quite enjoying the time they spent in his room. In fact, he was quite content with staying in, but he couldn’t say no to Madeleine, “sure, we can go,” he said with a smile, “I haven’t been anywhere in the martial world besides here honestly.”

Madeleine looked confused, “didn’t you leave and find a master?”

“This secret doesn’t matter too much anyway, but even if it did I wouldn’t mind telling you. The Celestial Deer Sect’s remains are actually at the bottom of Focus Lake. I found it shrouded in a formidable concealment formation.”

“Oh? So that’s what happened,” Madeleine never asked about Dyon’s adventures or questioned how he got things done. In fact, she was never surprised when he did something amazing. She had borne a strange confidence in Dyon.

“Then I’ll bring you to some good places on the main continent,” she said with a smile.

“alright. Then we’ll do that.”

Madeleine turn to Dyon with a mysterious glint in her eyes, “so you’re not going to tell me?”

Dyon looked at Madeleine, confused, “tell you what?”

“How did you make it feel so good?” She asked with a slight blush.

Dyon shuddered, thinking back to when he was still at the bottom of focus lake. He had been trying to sort through his master’s memories, when he stumbled upon a whole section of dual cultivation techniques. That was also where he learned how beneficial it was to take the virginity of someone with a god level constitution. But, he was severely disturbed. Suddenly gaining thousands of years of sexual experience? Good. Stumbling upon memories of 2 massive beasts copulating? Not so good. The vomit was held back by watching his master have sex in her human form, but that just made him feel dirty.

‘she was clearly too close to death to think about filtering some memories out,’ shivered Dyon. But then Dyon thought about how his master had time to put a block on some of the memories she thought Dyon wasn’t ready for yet, then that just sent him down another rabbit whole, ‘my master’s a pervert?…’ Dyon shook his head viciously, confusing Madeleine.

Dyon decided to tell Madeleine the version that didn’t include bestiality, “the Celestial Deer Sect had thousands of dual cultivation techniques. So, I thought if I fused the best circulation methods with celestial will and my innate aurora flame, I could amplify their effects even more. What could be more effective at manipulating energies than the aurora flame? Not only does it have a healing factor that gives a pleasant feeling, considering its use in manipulating precious resources into pills and manipulating energies to form arrays, using it to circulate particular paths is easy.”

Madeleine shook her head bitterly. Dyon spoke of manipulating cultivation techniques like it was as easy as breathing. He was clearly unaware that the same task he did on a whim was impossible for most people, let alone amplifying their effects.

But then, Madeleine smirked, “are you trying to tell me all you need to do is touch a woman and she’ll feel hundreds of times more sensitive than I used to on the winter solstice? Pervert.”

Dyon grinned, “I didn’t even think of that, but now that you say it, I guess I’ll have to try it out.”

Madeleine playfully hit Dyon, “but this sounds interesting… what is celestial will for it to have that effect?”

“Well,” Dyon released his celestial will, causing his skin to glow slightly. Infinitesimally crystals began to fall around him and Madeleine, “you can feel the purity, right? Celestial will is like the ultimate form of gentleness, but it is at the same time an absolute defense when its power is at a high enough level. Imagine washing away your opponents attack by purifying it. At the same time, celestial will allows you to impose your will on others because its purity is so alluring, which helps when you want someone to feel as good as you do. Which is even easier considering the calming and good feeling the will gives you in general,” Dyon smiled, “the final and probably most important, is that it makes opening more than 72 meridians possible.”

Madeleine looked up at Dyon in shock, “really?”

“mm. As you know, there are a total of 108 meridians. But, since ancient times, due to the loss in density of the energy of heaven and earth, more and more martial artists have begun to rely on cultivation stones to improve in later stages. Like, common stones for foundation stage, profound stones for essence gathering stage, and so on. The problem with that approach is that the energy lacks purity. So, even the best of geniuses can at most open 81 meridians. In fact, many essence gathering experts have only opened 54 meridians to reach the minimum requirement for essence gathering, before using treasures to force their cultivation upwards.”

Madeleine nodded, knowing much of this already, oblivious to the fact that Dyon had glossed over the loss in density of energy. Even Dyon didn’t know the full explanation, he had a pretty good guess. Amongst the geography books in the central pillar library, he found that the size of earth was many times smaller in the past. But, for some reason, it had expanded by millions of times. Allowing the human and martial world to stay perfectly isolated from each other. This obviously had the added affect of thinning the energy.

“The problem with that, is that your future cultivation is restricted. For every 9 meridians you open, you gain access to 1 level of essence gathering. So, today, most martial artists can’t access the 10^th, 11^th and 12^th levels of the essence gathering stage which correspond to 90, 99 and 108 meridians being opened respectively. Usually, if you open 54 you’ll be capped at the 7^th essence gathering stage. If you open 63 you’ll be able to push past with treasures and reach the 8^th saint stage. If you open 72, you’ll be able to reach the 9^th celestial stage and so on. So, the amount of foundation you have at the meridian formation stage is directly correlated to your future potential. Of course, these are just absolute caps. Usually, martial artists wouldn’t even reach those levels.

So, the only way to bypass the impurity of cultivation stones is by purifying it. And the only way to do so is through celestial will. Although there are rare treasures in the world that may allow geniuses to reach the 10^th and 11^th stages of the coming realms, from what I understand, only celestial will evolved to a high enough state will be able to purify the cultivation stone energy enough to allow you to reach that ultimate level. This is because other wills that have the ability to purify simply don’t have the quality that celestial will does.”

“wow,” breathed Madeleine, “you’ll be pretty amazing in the future then, won’t you,” Madeleine said with a slight pride in her eyes.

“I think you mean we,” Dyon said with a smile, “the truth is, I’m only able to sense and understand celestial will because my master gave me her essence blood before passing. But, now that I have sensed it, I can purify your energy for you when the time comes. In fact, I could leave a bit of celestial will within you so you not only have a little piece of me, but you could also make use of your god level constitution to comprehend it. I could help you, but the effect would be the best if you have celestial will of your own. With Goddess’ Disposition, your affinity towards purity is unmatched by many. I believe in you,” he said with a smile.

Madeleine pouted, “and here I was hoping you could place it in me like you did before.”

Dyon grinned, “there is actually another even more efficient way for you to sense celestial will.”

“Oh? And how’s that?”

“I could put a baby in you,” Dyon said grinning widely.

Although Dyon was partially joking, the truth was that if Madeleine had a baby in her that shared the blood of the Celestial Deer running through Dyon’s veins, it would indeed be more efficient.

“hmph,” Madeleine said being playfully angry, “don’t try your tricks on me. I’ve yet to see a wedding ring.”

Dyon smiled mysteriously, “then how could I not oblige with my woman’s will? I warn you though, the more practice you give me using this technique, the easier it’ll be for me to seduce other girls in the future.”

Madeleine was about to respond, but Dyon’s rough lips were already on hers as he slowly pulled down the sweats she was wearing.

“mm,” Madeleine moaned, letting the pleasure wash away all the pain she had held in her heart.
