The worse part was that if he used that, it would definitely damage Orcus' skeleton. If that happened, his clone would have to settle for a weaker start than it could have had. The cascading effects were definitely annoying to deal with.

"I'll skin you alive!" The Lord Creator's roar resounded through the third phase castle.

'Big Brother Dyon, if you're willing, we could take a risk.' Little Yin said timidly.

Dyon frowned, looking toward the hamster twins that always rested on his shoulders.

'Risk?'

'Mm As you know, my brother and I are of the royal line of Celestial Hamster. As such, we're in the minority of our race who are capable of unlocking our Battle Bloodline. For an enemy like this Lord Creator who's lived through so many epochs, the technique I'm referring to is particularly effective on him. The more lines of karma the target has affected through time, the stronger this technique becomes.'

'There has to be a reason you haven't brought this up before. Why is that?' Dyon said seriously.

'Because time will might be considered a superior will, but it's the will of karma that's actually considered the Supreme Law. According to the history my and my brother have seen of you, before you even began to cultivate the energy path, you had already learned time will. This is because time will is only a small part of the much larger and more substantial karmic will.

'While the universe forgives using time will fairly easily, even allowing you to use it when you were barely 14 years old, the use of karmic will can result in death. As the will entails, every action has an equal and opposite reaction.'

Dyon shook his head. 'It's not worth it. The exchange for the death of a Higher Existence isn't something that I'm willing to pay.'

'Let her finish.' Little Yang interjected.

'Big Brother Dyon, do you really think me and my brother are just historians? With our help, due to both of us choosing you, the Heavens won't punish you as badly as it would someone else. This is why using your Eternity Pupils only resulted in a stamina drainage. If you hadn't had a bond with us, you may have died after activating the true abilities of the Eternity's Balance constitution.'

Dyon's eyes constricted into pin holes. His Eternity Pupils were capable of seeing the lines of karma, allowing him to directly effect the future by taking the path with the highest odds of victory. He had never thought such a thing would have such a high price.

'You two are still beating around the bush.' Dyon recollected himself. If it was really so simple, they would have already suggested this.

'A normal celestial hamster would have to trade the equivalent of the trillions of years Orcus has experienced in order to execute this technique. But, we as members of the royal bloodline only have to pay a fraction of that. And as twins executing it together, this price is further lessened.

'To use this technique, there are only two requirements. The first is that the target must be restrained, and the second is that we must be willing to fall into a dormancy for a set period of time. By my calculations, Little Yang and I would have to sleep for 50 000 years.'

'Absolutely not.' Dyon's words had no shred of hesitation in them. If he had contracted himself with Little Yang and Yin to use them as tools, he would have accepted their proposal when they first hatched within his inner world.

Their sleeping for 50 000 years was just a nice way of saying that they'd give up 50 000 years of their lifespan. If they were sleeping, how could they be living?

'Big Brother, don't be so quick to turn us down. If we had absorbed more ancient aura, we'd only have to sleep for a few decades, but unfortunately, we're still too young. Everyone else is helping you, let us do something.'

In truth, this technique was a life saving measure of the celestial hamsters. It was impossible for regular cultivators to see through their concealment, however, once a celestial hamster was bound to their chosen masters, they had to have the ability to protect this master. This was because the death of the master was directly followed by their deaths as well.

This may sound odd, but it was incredibly logical. Celestial Hamsters used their masters as anchors to a specific timeline. This made it so that they could appear and disappear at will without fear of being lost in the stream of time. If this anchor was suddenly lost, the results were devastating.

'The answer is still no.' Dyon said firmly.

He stepped forward. Although the conversation between him and the twins felt like it took a long time, in reality, not even a single second had passed since they communicated via qi.

Little Yin and Yang looked at each other helplessly. But, the light of happiness in their eyes couldn't be hidden either. Maybe they had finally begun to understand just why Dyon had initially rejected them.

With a thought, a book appeared in Dyon's hand.

"The Soul Tome?! How did you get your hands on the sacred treasure of those damn Elves!? Wait, this is the Acacia Clans Tree of Life and Death! You're an elf?!"

Dyon was stunned by the hatred in Orcus' voice. Even under the torture of the life essence that was constantly being poured into him, he hadn't sounded this angry. Just what was this Lord Creator's history with the Elves?

That said, he wasn't entirely at fault for his false perception.

Thinking back, Dyon became the master of the Soul Tome the day he awakened his manifestation. At that time, he had caused a massive commotion of the Elvin Island.

Back then, the Soul Tome had been sealed within block of stone. If he recalled correctly, after his manifestation awakened, a phenomena was triggered. However, just as that phenomena attempted to etch the True Name of his manifestation into the stone, the stone itself shattered to pieces, causing the phrase 'You Don't Qualify to Name Me' to be etched into the skies.
