70 You idots have really done it this time... (1/2)

Jodye Trill and Xavier Tricko both wore black garments as they set out immediately for the fourth-subfloor entrance. With a thought, the [Cosmos Revolving Grimoire] flashed into existence in front of Jodye. Messages suddenly seem to appear in his mind as if he had always known them. The second function of the heavenly grimoire was now unlocked. His mental connection with the divine tome had been strengthened considerably. Also, the fifth page of the grimoire now contained a Spell called the Cosmic Purification Ritual. This spell was able to refine the tainted fiend force absorbed by his guardians and nourish his cosmic force geneses.

This was the [Cosmos Revolving Grimoire]'s second function: Purify! The purify function also had eight seals with only the first being released.

Actually, Jodye didn't even know how to cast spells very well. He really wanted to learn, but he didn't feel safe in Pangaea. His father was famous in the west, and apparently so was his mother. His unique appearance would easily land him in trouble here. The man… or rather boy named Jodye Trill may be many things, but he was definitely no fool. He would get the proper training and teachers he needed, but he didn't plan on doing it by laying low.

This was not in line with his personality.

Jodye had every intention to showboat, and challenge all the best fighters until he became the strongest! Nothing could stop him from doing this. Plus, Sylvester had brought them all the way to the South Ward! This was where the border was located. This was why Jodye decided that the best course of action would be for him to head to Rodinia, and start over fresh. He wanted to experience life outside of a voodoo state. There, Jodye planned to subjugate his own force, train them to become mighty, and storm his wave back home until he swallowed all of their enemies in a sea of blood!

First, he needed to become strong enough to travel abroad. It was no mere coincidence that only Dessa Chimes and Aiken Moon, but even Joseph Goldwolf, who the former two youths knew as Jupiter, all ended up in Dark Forest. This place had low levels of spiritual pressure. As the energy was mild and not very abundant here, it was the favored destination for lower ranking warriors. It was like a region safe for weaklings. There was so much more to the world out there! It was inevitable that Jodye would have to settle down somewhere while he fortified his foundation and utilized his resources.

However, he could at least make a small commotion under the guise of Jupiter right? Jodye felt he was far enough from his home so he would be long gone by the time any rumors managed to get that far. Jupiter had already become a liberator of those suffering from the abusive ways of these dark sages, and Jodye felt that this should continue. Of course, he wasn't entirely confident about no rumors of him reaching back home in this magical world.

Ultimately, Jodye needed more stability.

Especially now that he had a follower and that follower had a stalker boy.

”Can you help me learn how to cast spells?” Jodye suddenly had the idea to ask the heavenly grimoire for help through the dragon soul. This thing may not have an artifact soul, but it seemed to not be too typical. It was like it was alive. Sure enough, after the question left his mouth, an ancient method of forming incantation runes appeared in his mind. It felt as if he had known this method from the beginning, rather than learning just now.

Forming incantation runes required magic force. Magic force could invigorate and influence laws. By using magic Qi as a medium, practitioners could use mighty forces that they had not comprehended themselves.

It was at this moment that Jodye Trill recognized he had genuinely been under-utilizing his heavenly grimoire. The [Cosmos Revolving Grimoire] was able to transmit information to his mind directly, and its knowledge was vast as the ocean.

”This is actually only possible because you have released the second function. Information can be considered a way of purifying your mind and your thoughts, by filtering out false or erroneous information. On the path to becoming stronger you will see far more wonderful things,” Sylvester Tricko said in a cold and detached voice as he glided over to the dragon soul.

”The second function was released because I'm stronger now? I actually doubt that,” said Jodye Trill, unconvinced. What strength? This was still nothing in the face of that baldheaded perverted demon.

”The second function was released because my brother is reckless. The heavenly grimoire's unknown function had no choice but to activate, the absorption of dark energy was too great.” Sylvester's words left Jodye mildly confused. Seeing this Sylvester asked, ”Have you not noticed a lack of fiends around you?”

Sure enough, after Jodye spread out his divine awareness to the limit, he became aware that there were simply no fiends in his immediate surroundings. The closest fiends were either hiding in scattered corners or crowded around the entrance to the fourth sub-level. Jodye headed straight there with Xavier following directly behind him with Fenrir on his shoulders. As he approached the temperature slowly dropped with every step.

There were dozens of level 2 fiends at their destination, including Wraith fiends, Bully fiends, and even a few ice spirit fiends and level 2 vicious beasts known as Serenity Bats. The walls of this cavern where littered with C grade serenity crystals, that gave the dark cave a purple, pink, and white hue.

Xavier stepped forward ahead of Jodye, with Fenrir still draped over his small shoulder. Knowing first hand how excessive the weight of this sword was, Jodye was inwardly astounded by Xavier's internal strength. He carried his massive sword as if it was the weight of a broomstick. When they approached 100 meters away from the cavern, Xavier lifted the heavy sword Fenrir from his shoulders and rushed crazily ahead. A flaming golden atmosphere that was as sharp as a sword surrounded Fenrir in a blaze of force as Xavier stepped out of the corridor and slashed out. A black sword light surrounded in a fiery golden aura swept out from the slash ferociously. Jodye felt his origin energy deplete by a quarter of his reserves.

Fwoosh!

Terrible wailing was heard from the surrounding spirits as fiery black-gold energy rampaged through the crowd of dark creatures. Jodye Trill was shocked. How strong was this young sky jackal?

”Yang is the most dominant and active positive force in existence. When used against these fiends whose powers are steeped in the severely negative yin principle, it is the bane of their existence. They dread the mighty calamity power of pure yang!” Xavier Tricko was performing a beautiful sword dance as his words entered Jodye's mind directly, leaving the latter enlightened. Sword Qi and calamity Qi fused together with a mysterious Qi that Jodye couldn't understand to form vicious waves of lacerating energy that tore through the fiends one by one.

Jodye snapped out of his daze, withdrawing the two sabers from his space ring. A bright golden aura burst from his body as his three combat seeds glowed and increased his strength tremendously! In his head, the basic calamity force concept begin spinning as a golden crystal shard in his origin pool released scarlet flaming energy that flooded his origin veins in a relentless frenzy!

The calamity laws present in the atmosphere reacted to the rotation of the nascent concept and entered Jodye doors of origin, creating calamity force from his origin energy turning it a creamy scarlet color. His calamity force genesis was sublimated by this calamity purity as Jodye gathered power.

Jodye's origin force had a battle power of 23, or 23 BP! The C-grade combat gear, the phantom sabers, augmented his strength by 20% making it 28 BP! Sophomore rank S grade combat seeds gave him 15 BP each, or 45 BP!His advanced nascent level calamity Qi also gave him an additional 20 BP!
