Chapter 1483 Never
[Author's Note: If you guys still don't remember what these matters are referring to, think back to when Dyon traveled with the 99th quadrant geniuses to the Sapientia Corner in order to get pills for their entry into the Valley of Geniuses. Back then, Dyon saved Virvor – who turned out to be his loyal follower – from Rand, the prince from the Grand Templar Sect, whose father also happens to be the biological father of Giralda's son, Ryu.]
However, there were many other things that made Aritzia's skepticism tingle fiercer.
Firstly, aside from the top 3 quadrants, the 99th, 100th, and 56th quadrants were the only ones without Sapientia influence.
The top 3 quadrants made sense because they were too powerful. The 100th quadrant also made sense because it was practically a primitive society where the most powerful individual were of the mere essence gathering realm, allegedly. There was no need for the Sapientia to be there.
The 56th quadrant gained another pass as well. This was because the 56th ranked quadrant was the current rank of True God Sacharro's Celestial Deer Quadrant!
But what about the 99th quadrant? On the surface, they had no real reason… In fact, when Aritzia wanted to investigate why, she found that a massive taboo was attached to the 99th quadrant, even she, with all her authority, couldn't touch them, on orders from the Esteemed Ones.
Secondly, how was it possible for a genius like Clara to just pop out of anywhere? Also… Judging by the record Dyon set during his first trial, didn't Clara appear at the same time?!
One coincidence was enough for Aritzia to raise an eyebrow, but so many at once?
Then, what happened today was a straw that broke the camels back.
No one even knew Abraxus' name, yet that Lady Sacharro not only called him an old geezer, but also knew that he was a transcendent!
If the Sacharro Clan was so familiar with Abraxus, could it be possible that Abraxus would bend the rules a small bit for them? Just enough for their dirty dealings to fly under the radar?...
Things simply kept piling up. In the end, Aritzia even put Clara's relationship with Ri into question. Could they really just be friends who hit it off in the Valley of Geniuses? Or was there a deeper connection between them?
Could the masked wife stealer and True God Sacharro be the same person?!
If this was true, didn't that mean that True God Sacharro had a hand in the 4th ranked, 9th ranked, 56th ranked, and the enigmatic 99th ranked quadrants?!
Aritzia felt that something was brewing. Even she couldn't be certain of any of this. So, she needed a plan.
The first step was to catch Virvor. With her network, finding his whereabouts was incredibly easy. She had already sent numerous individuals to catch him. He was the one who would most likely recognize Dyon.
The second step was to lure Dyon with a honeyed trap…. The best part was that she didn't need to lay this trap on her because Dyon suggested what it should be for her!
Aritzia smiled a light smile, one that sent a shiver down her elder brother's spine.
"I'll give him what he asks for… But can he afford to take it?" Aritzia mused.
It turned out Abraxus was right. A man really should never piss off a woman.-

Dyon was unaware of Aritzia's meeting with her elder brother, but that didn't mean he hadn't prepared for this sort of potential situation. If he had to prepare for the less than intelligent individuals, how could he not prepare for those true geniuses?
Still, whether he prepared or not was irrelevant to the challenging road ahead. Duping someone with Aritzia's level of intelligence was no joking matter. Whether or not he succeeded would be decided by a thin blade's age.
At that moment, within the Celestial Corner of the Saint Floor, a familiar figure awoke from his meditation. This man's face was covered by a silver-gold mask, and he was draped in luxurious royal blue robes embroidered with refined silver. However, none of these things were the most striking feature about this young man.
Around his body hung flickering creatures. One was in the shape of a small white tiger. Another was shaped like a mischievous little monkey. Yet another was a small, shelled turtle with skin smooth and white beyond compare. And the last was an adorable bambi-like deer, blinking with an innocent cuteness.
However, when one looked closely, it became obvious that these creatures weren't the same as Dyon's beast baby companions. No.. Instead, they were formed of white flames!
This was none other than Dyon's Creation Characteristic Flames displaying the full extent of their abilities. As for the young man they all hung around, it was none other than Dyon's clone!
There were many questions to be had here. But, there were none more important than two very glaring issues.
The first was the most obvious. Dyon's clones had a range limit. This range was limited by the extent of his divine sense. Dyon couldn't even cover the whole of the lower celestial floor with his senses, so how the hell could he sustain a clone on an entirely separate floor?
The next problem was more hidden, but it was just as glaring. Even Dyon's highest end clone could only survive for 3 days. But, it had been 6 months since Dyon last left the celestial floor, and even longer since then that he was on the saint floors at all. So how was his clone here at all even if he managed to circumvent the first problem?
Surprisingly, both questions had the same answers: Dyon's Purity Flames!
Back in the Golden Flame Mystical World, Dyon had taken a treasure known as Heaven's Selfless Breath. They were tea leaves which allowed one to enter a deep selfless state and were especially known for their ability to aid a cultivator in comprehending their manifestations. Luckily, Dyon's two flames were counted among his manifestations, so, he had learned quite a lot about them.
One of the most important abilities Dyon gained thanks to Heaven's Selfless Breath was a comprehension that his flames didn't have multiple characteristics, but instead, just one, overarching characteristic that grew more powerful as his soul strengthened: The Creation Characteristic.
