"This is a martial saint pill. Be sure to take it before you begin to cultivate, and also hide it from your mothers. They'll kill me if they find out I allowed you to start cultivating." Dyon wiped a cold sweat from his forehead.

He and Junior had reached an agreement. When together, they were brothers. However, they'd still be father and son to the rest of the world.

It was best if no one knew that Dyon had a clone as it would cause more trouble than anything else. Luckily the Death God constitution changed Junior's appearance just enough for it to be viable.

Junior took the Martial Saint pill and grinned.

Taking the martial saint pill before or after one began cultivating had some large differences. If one took it before cultivating, you'd gain both the divine pulse and True Deity meridians. This meant that Junior could gain something Dyon took more than a hundred years to gain immediately.

"Do you want to cultivate my cultivation technique? Or do you want to follow Orcus' methods?"

"Why wouldn't I choose the best cultivation technique ever created? But I do want Orcus' other core teachings."

Dyon nodded. "I'll give them to you when your cultivation is high enough. They're mostly divine grade and higher techniques, so you can't use them until the dao realm.

"You can practice my Soul Rend soul cultivation technique, but you need a higher level of body refinement to use Orcus' body refinement technique, even I can't use it yet."

Junior nodded, clearly excited. He happily put everything into his little spatial ring. He usually carried it around for food, but he found a much better purpose for it now. It seemed he shared Dyon's appetite too.

"Now." Dyon said, standing to his full height and sighing a breath. "Do you know anything about the life stone?..."

Dyon proceeded to explain everything to Junior. He already felt like he was talking more to a brother than a son, it made it feel much more comfortable this way. Now, he didn't feel the need to avoid Junior like he had been doing before.

"I've heard it calling out to me, but Granny Celest said I wasn't ready to see it yet." Junior said. "She also told me that it was the center of this world, so if I took it away, the world would collapse."

Dyon seemed to have confirmed his theory with these words. The Life Stone really did have something to do with death. But, there were a few other odd things.

Madeleine had Ice Phoenix blood running through her veins. By all rights, if the Life Stone was truly about life as well, then it should have called out to Madeleine too, no? A treasure of 33 heavens always sought out the best master. Who could be a better master to it that the embodiment of life on the mortal plane?

This made Dyon believe that maybe the abilities of the Life Stone weren't so balanced after all. Or maybe there was some other reason he was unaware of.

"But." Junior said after thinking some more. "If what you said about the passive and active abilities is true, then it can't the life stone's fault that all of this is happening. There are two possibilities.

"Either you're right and the life stone is uninvolved. Or, you're only partly correct."

"Partly correct?"

"Yes. If you're right and the passive ability is known, then it can't be the life stone. That's because that would mean that the active ability was what was causing the problems. But, since I haven't even seen the life stone, let alone taken the control of it, how could I trigger its active ability? Let alone the fact I don't have any cultivation.

"But, there's also the possibility that you're only partially correct. Maybe in addition to the fact we don't know the active ability, we only partially understand the passive ability. If that's the case, maybe this phenomenon is also part of the passive ability and we just have no way of knowing.

"Of course, there's the third possibility that none of this has to do with the life stone at all."

In the end, Dyon could only ignore it for now.

After he left Junior with Delia once more, he went to view the phenomenon himself, but he didn't get very far.

He punched the ground and watched as the wisps of death came up. In fact, he even absorbed a few and felt his death will creep forward in comprehension, something that was incredibly rare considering Dyon had already formed a half-step dao.

'This death qi is incredibly pure. Purer than anything I've ever come across. But, it's also incredibly weak. The best way to describe it is as an incredibly refined path of death will, one that stands among the best paths to take, but of a low level… Not higher than a third level will…'

Dyon was slightly embarrassed. He had a 9th level intent, but a mere 3rd level will actually improved his comprehension.

But, there was something even more pressing about this. Dyon had gained his will comprehension by sacrificing his lifespan. Back then, Dyon had sacrificed thousands of years for the perfect comprehension. Technically, it should be impossible for any comprehension to be better than his assuming it was at or below his comprehension level. Meaning, no will below the 1st dao level should be able to help him improve his comprehension.

However, something that refuted that truth was right before him. This death will was an even higher order than the death qi he gained sacrificing his life force…

'How depressing… Just what is this thing?...'
