Dyon looked at the small skull in his hands. Off to the side, Madeleine sat in meditation. For her, these flames were an important source for increasing her comprehension of Life Will. Considering its important, life abyssal cores were even rarer than death abyssal cores. Such an opportunity was unheard of, so she took full advantage.

In truth, Madeleine Life Will was tied to her Ice Phoenix Flames, the issue was that this wasn't enough. The ice flames had the characteristic of life, even ranking ahead of Purgatory Flames to solidly place 6th, however, this characteristic had to be nurtured as it could very easily be suppressed by the flame's Piercing Cold characteristic.

Although Madeleine's flame will had reached the 9th intent realm, her life characteristic was lagging behind severely. As a Supreme Law, how could Life Will be so pitiful? Yet, Madeleine was unable to heal Dyon's body alone without support. This showed just how lacking her flame's life characteristic was.

The best way to solve this issue was to comprehend life will separately and slowly infuse this comprehension into her flames. Eventually, they would become one and Madeleine could focus on simply raising the grade of her flames as a whole.

Dyon turned back his attention to the baby skull. "What is this?"

"The path of death infused within this skull is very odd and complex, but it also has a very deep and rich history." Little Yin and Yang spoke as one as they often did when using their historical path time will.

"This skull was is from a species of Demon Royalty. The Demon Royal has long been extinct and disappeared after the Chaos Era. At least, this was the case in their true form.

"Smaller branches of Demon Royalty survived into the Primordial Era, but by then, they were mere shells of their former selves, were eventually replaced by the Devils that practice along the devil path. However, Demonic Royals are the originators of all such paths.

"As things stand today, the only remaining pieces of this history can only be found on the Ancient Battlefield where the beginning of time meets the end.

"This skull is that of a child from the Chaos Era, a True Blood Noble of one of the most powerful of the Seven Sinful Clans – The Pride Clan."

Dyon's eyes contracted. What did the twins mean the only remaining pieces? How could that be true?

Back when Dyon entered the Valley of Geniuses and captured the three kitsune geniuses, one of the Emperors that gung up on him was a member of one of these Sinful Clans too, wasn't he? His name was Chanzui and he was an obese young man who proudly touted that he was part of the 23rd ranked quadrant's Glutton Clan.

Even though the twins only named one of the Seven Sinful Clans, wasn't it obvious by the title of the Pride Clan? Everyone knew what the seven deadly sins were: Pride, Greed, L.u.s.t, Envy, Gluttony, Wrath and the Sloth. If the Pride Clan was a part of them, it followed suit that so was the Glutton Clan.

As far as Dyon knew, they no longer called themselves the Seven Sinful Clans, but rather used the Seven Dark Sins instead. He didn't know why this difference mattered or why a martial world that seemed intolerant of Devil Path cultivators would allow their root Clan to exist among them either…

"This child was of the main Pride bloodline and highly talented. However, he died an unresigned death far too early. Orcus then found this skull within the ruins of a Pride Clan burial ground within the Ancient Battlefield.

"After countless years, the resentment and deep seeded Pride of the youth birthed a novel phenomenon, forging a new path of death: Nihility."

"Nihility…" Dyon mumbled under his breath. The word simply meant nothingness. An apathy toward all of existence, a pride so bone deep that even the fabric of reality meant nothing to you. For this youth to create such a path even in death…

Now Dyon understood how Orcus cut off the connection between the slumbering ancestors and reality. By relying on this skull, he could tap into the path of Nihility and then use it to sever whatever awakening mechanisms they had remaining. Since the ancestors were technique toeing the line of life and death, it made it exceptionally easy to use it on them.

It should be noted that this concept of 'ease' is relative. If Dyon tried to replicate Orcus' deeds, he would die without even a corpse to bury.

Not only was his path too weak in the face of something like this, so was his death intent. Dyon even believed that this was also the case for Orcus. If Orcus hadn't had the Death God Body, he wouldn't be able to withstand the burden of using this treasure.

This experience opened up a whole new world for Dyon. The fact he had found such an otherworldly abyssal core wasn't even at the forefront of his mind. Instead, he felt like he finally understood what it meant to create a true path for one's self.
