Chapter 1395 - How Do You Want To Die?

Davis looked around as he panned his cold gaze filled with hostile intent that said if anyone were to make a move, they would undoubtedly die like Grand Elder Valerian and the sixteen others. His face and hands that were covered in blood also seemed to give him a terrifying look as though he were the reaper in various legends.

If some stranger had laid their eyes over him the first time in their lives at this moment, they would unquestionably think that he was from the wicked path!

Nevertheless, the blood that covered Davis's face wasn't fake but real.

It wasn't an illusion as Davis understood that it wouldn't be able to deceive the likes of these experts and powerhouses after a moment, but it wasn't his blood either. He collected blood from s.h.i.+rley's spatial ring that possessed the people she killed for offending her, their bodies still intact.

He wasn't just chilling in the crimson palace all this time but also made sure to be prepared. The blood was mixed with a lot of cultivator's blood that a Mystic Diviner would find it rather hard to find who they were tracing, only to trace dead people in the end.

Before this, he also made sure to give his possessions to s.h.i.+rley so that his spatial ring was practically empty right now. No one could find his origins unless they forced s.h.i.+rley to confess!

s.h.i.+rley's Crimson Palace was encased in a bright fiery defensive formation. She looked at the scenes from the projection with her lovely yet worried eyes remain steep with disbelief.

Where the h.e.l.l were those talismans he used to kill? She wasn't able to see them, nor couldn't she even tell if the bleeding was real or fake as he told her that he needed the blood of many bodies.

On the other hand, Esvele and Freya's expressions were seething with incredulity as they had their mouths agape. Then, it was as if they suddenly connected gazes with Davis, causing them to come out of their trance as they took a deep breath!

Davis removed his gaze from the crimson palace as he saw that it was still safe before his gaze stretched to the horizons at this moment, his eyes connecting with Sect Master Lea Weiss's as he looked at her with his ominous red, Death G.o.d Eyes.

'As expected, I couldn't see s.h.i.+t without sacrificing my soul essence. She's blocking me with her High-Level Law Rune Stage essence energy like Artur Schatz and Valerian did... quite cautious indeed...'

Davis mused while he wasn't surprised that she was here.

She was hundreds of kilometers away, but this kind of distance didn't matter to Death G.o.d Eyes as long as he could see them and differentiate their features like their face.

In fact, all the experts and powerhouses here already had their souls encased with both their essence energy and martial energy in fear of being attacked by his soul technique, except their martial energy did nothing to impede Fallen Heaven's deadly attack as they weren't Martial Overlords.

Davis's main body in the Purple Guest Palace was actually twitching right now in throbbing pain instead of twitching inside his wives. The seventeen percent of soul essence he had to sacrifice to kill Grand Elder Valerian had put a heavy toll of soul injury on the main body, but it wasn't anything significant, considering that he had it way worse before in the Purple Thunderflame Island, where he had killed hundreds of Scorched-Crystal Crimson Apes.

At that time, he had consumed thirty-eight percent of his soul essence, but this time, for just an Essence Gathering Cultivator who was a little above a stage and a level, it cost him a whopping seventeen percent of soul essence, actually more than killing a Scorched-Crystal Crimson Ape that was directly a stage above him in terms of the soul while Grand Elder Valerian's soul was only at Mid-Level King Soul Stage.

This fact also meant that Grand Elder Valerian was well within Davis's limit to kill without sacrificing his soul essence, but because Grand Elder Valerian's soul was protected by his strong Mid-Level Law Rune Stage Cultivation, it cost Davis seventeen percent of his soul essence to break that defense and kill him!

The consumption of soul essence was undoubtedly a far cry from before as he recalled that he hadn't had the need to spend this amount of soul essence for breaking the defense of an Essence Gathering Cultivator. And this was actually the result after he had strengthened his soul essence with all that refining of soul essences!

Clearly, the Ninth Stage influenced a ma.s.sive gap between its cultivation levels. Still, if considered in stages, specifically the Eighth Stage and the Ninth Stage, the gap these two cultivation stages const.i.tuted could be said to be the difference between heaven and earth!

'Seems like I have to do what I did in Supreme Soul Stage in King Soul Stage to kill Ninth Stage Powerhouses like cutting cabbages, but... where under the heavens can I find so many Ninth Stage Soul Essence for me to kill and collect?'

Magical Beasts were the answer because, publically, it was said that only nine Soul Emperors were present, and nine soul essences were clearly not enough for him!

"!!!"

*Bzzzz!~*

Davis abruptly raised his head in response to the overwhelming pressure descending on him!

"Insolent brat! You dare to kill my descendants!? Who let you be this unbridled in my Burning Phoenix Ridge!!!?"

The aura of Burning Phoenix Flames exploded in the distance as a figure directly arrived at this place, his widened expression looking enraged while his long white hair was seething with burning phoenix flames as if he were a true fire G.o.d.

Davis possessed difficulty hiding his endangered smile as he saw the monstrosity that arrived in front of him in an instant, having no fear towards his death-attributed soul force. His lips moved, wanting to say something.

"An-"

"Brat, how do you want to die?"

Davis pursed his lips as his eyes momentarily went wide, feeling the s.p.a.ce around him suddenly become airtight, locking him up in place!

'This is spatial laws!!!'

In the Crimson Palace, s.h.i.+rley's expression became aghast as she saw the character towering above Davis. Her arms began to shake, her palm threatening to break the spatial talisman she had had in her hand. However, would Sect Master Lea Weiss be able to battle with this incredibly powerful character?

An Ancestor-level character in their Burning Phoenix Ridge!?

Indeed, Sect Master Lea Weiss's expression became a bit twisted.

She was reeling in absolute disbelief and happiness when she saw Davis kill Grand Elder Valerian like it was nothing, but she also didn't let it show on her face as she knew that she couldn't be framed for this ma.s.sacre on the grounds of allowing it to happen.

Nevertheless, looking at Ancestor Magnus Rein, the person who had lived for around twenty-five thousand years, almost five times her age, she gritted her teeth in anger. He was the man who always stopped her from making a decisive killing move on Grand Elder Valerian. Except for this time, he seemed to have been too slow to react to save Grand Elder Valerian.

'No, it is this mysterious yet terrifying elder, Elder Chu Feng who was faster!'

She couldn't help but recall the time she spoke to him, unaware of his terrifying prowess in Death Laws.

[

"What if I said that I could kill that hateful Valerian for you...?"

"!!!?"

Sect Master Lea Weiss turned to look at Elder Chu Feng, possessing a confused look on her face as well as feeling amused.

"s.h.i.+rley, is your protector crazy, or is his main body just strong enough to spout nonsense like this?"

"Whether I can kill or not is none of your concern." Davis blinked his eyes, looking indifferent, "However, if you accept, you have my word that you will see Valerian drown in his own blood."

"Don't tell me you're going to ambush Valerian outside because that isn't enough, and-"

"There's an Ancestor-level character behind Valerian, right?"

Sect Master Lea Weiss's expression withdrew, looking at Davis with a reevaluating gaze for a few seconds before she nodded her head.

"There's a character called Ancestor Magnus Rein whose living status is unknown to the public but known among us upper echelons of the Burning Phoenix Ridge. Just like how I have given a spatial talisman for s.h.i.+rley, Ancestor Magnus Rein has given a spatial talisman to Valerian that keeps him from facing absolute death, so no matter what your plan may be, it is inevitable that you would end up dead instead."

She then saw Davis's expression become tinged with a teasing smile.

"So you're convinced that I would not be able to kill Valerian, huh..."

"You cannot...!" Sect Master Lea Weiss unamusedly spoke, "And you have no need to kill him since I'm already looking after and protecting s.h.i.+rl-"

"I'll kill both of them..."

"...!" Sect Master Lea Weiss's expression became dumbfounded behind her veil as she subconsciously let out a bellow, "Do I hear you right?"

"You're going to get yourself killed! The Ancestor is a powerful High-Level Law Rune Stage Powerhouse whom even I cannot afford to battle and hope to win! Even if you're able to kill Valerian somehow, you'll still end up being killed like an ant, being stepped upon in an instant!"

"So what?"

"...?"

Sect Master Lea Weiss didn't know what to say as she looked at his confused expression that turned into one of overbearing confidence.

"I only need you to promise me one thing..."

]

Sect Master Lea Weiss's fists clenched tightly.

'I should save him using my authority... He has done enough...'

She released her fists, about to make a move that might brand her a heretic, but her expression abruptly froze as her body became stiff.

The Grand Elders who had thought this maniacal protector's berserk actions came to a stop with the interference of absolute power like their Ancestor also had their expressions change!

"I want to die by committing double suicide. Care to tag along to the reincarnation cycle with me?"

"You!?"

*Boom!~*

Davis's voice echoed as a crazy smiled filled his face, his body abruptly exploding into a blood shower as Ancestor Magnus Rein's scalp went numb! The blood splashed all over his face and robes as he tried to shake it away, but the light in his eyes also dimmed as he dropped dead like everyone else whom Elder Chu Feng faced.

"..."

Utter silence permeated into the dusky Burning Phoenix Ridge, making them doubt their eyes for the third time in their life for a single day! Looking at the Ancestor, whom they did not even know existed, fall and splat his white head into the ground, some of their eyes rolled back into their sockets as they fainted, especially the Rein Family Elders and Grand Elders who knew that they had their lost their Ancestor!
