Divine Emperor of Death

Different from Evelynn who had her natural proficiency in Poison Laws unlocked by the Diluted Sage Tree Pill Essence, the others had to come in contact with enormous knowledge of poisons before they could comprehend Poison Laws.

However, there was also another way to easily come in contact with Poison Laws, that is, to cultivate in a Poison Attributed Cultivation Manual.

”Perhaps, you also have Poison Attributed Cultivation Manual?”

The alchemist blinked his eyes before he straightforwardly spoke, ”It is something that you cannot afford, even if you have more of those Pill Recipes.”

Davisʼs lips curved without even a bit of hesitation, ”What if I said... that I can take out a King Grade Pill Recipe?”

The alchemistʼs pupils dilated as he inadvertently took a step back, his breathing became disarray as his heart pounded!

King Grade Pill Recipes were sold in the thousands! Thousands of High-Level Spirit Stones and he didnʼt have such wealth to buy one! Such luxury and grandeur!

ʼWho is this esteemed alchemist!?ʼ

It eventually took some time to recover himself.

He then saw outside that no one was entering his store and wasnʼt surprised since people recognized poisons like a plague. Even if this was a store that sold poison antidotes, not many people would visit due to the exorbitant prices, nor did any people want to offend an alchemist who was well versed in poisons.

He gradually opened his mouth, ”For now, just letʼs exchange information at the Sky Grade.”

”Sure!” Davis acted like he wasnʼt hurried.

However, in truth, he was worried if the transaction would not be accepted by the other party.

It wasnʼt even an hour into the time they entered the Alchemy Convention, but he had already found a clue to solve Evelynnʼs Essence Gathering Cultivation problem.

Like this, he felt that there was a major chance that he would come across many people who are Poison Masters and are also in possession of a Sky Grade or even a King Grade Cultivation Manual.

Nevertheless, the reason why he was anxious about the transition rested in the alchemistʼs words.

Because, by the other partyʼs tone, he could tell that either the alchemist didnʼt have a Poison Attributed Cultivation Manual and was just bluffing up to deepen his mysteriousness or possessed a King Grade Poison Attributed Cultivation Manual!

Such a transaction from a person who had lower cultivation and lower status was almost impossible to encounter! And Davis thought that he had encountered such a person!

He didnʼt believe that it was his luck! Perhaps, it was Evelynnʼs fortune to encounter a person with a key to her current problem.

He wanted to finish the transaction and was prepared to even use Misdirection on the other party if he so needed and if things took a turn for the worse, he wasnʼt aversed on using Fallen Heaven either.

After a few rounds of discussion and exchanges, a few people visited, browsed, and left but Davis finally managed to obtain knowledge on matters relating to poison. It even went as far as to collect the personal notes of the alchemist since the matter couldnʼt compensate half of the last Pill Recipe.

In total, Davis had exchanged these for 14 Peak-Level Sky Grade Medicinal Pill Recipes.

”How about now? Can we trade the thing I asked before?” Davis prompted with a smile.

”This...” The alchemist frowned before he said, ”How can I be assured that you will not leak this matter to others?”

Davis was taken aback before he realized, ʼSo heʼs worried that I will sell him out? Could it be that this cultivation manual is a stolen property?ʼ

The more he thought about it, the greater he became convinced of his own reasoning.

Letting Evelynn train in this cultivation manual might possibly become a future source of danger. However, if he were to cower just for this, was there any meaning for him to continue cultivating or hold his head high as a man? Her man?

He put the thoughts of danger to the back of his mind and said, ”I can swear to the heavens, but you should also swear to the heavens to not leak the matter of our transaction, is that fine?”

The alchemist pondered for a whole minute before nodding his head, ”I can agree to your demands but do you really possess a King Grade Pill Recipe?”

”I do...” Davis laughed in a casual manner, as if he had this transaction under control, ”And if that is not enough, will High-Level Spirit Stones suffice?”

The alchemistʼs eyes lit up as he lost his quiet persona in excitement, ”Suffice! Will suffice!”

He had been waiting to amass High-Level Spirit Stones and use it along with the necessary pill to break through to the Law Dominion Stage in a single shot! Doing so will help him become a Low-Level King Grade Alchemist in the future, further enhancing his status and ability!

In reality, his age was just around two hundred but he dared not to reveal this information to anyone, afraid that he would be targeted. His parents were conservative and he was their only worthy heir, and he knew that to gain power that he would have to sacrifice something.

In this case, he became willing to let go of his family heirloom, something that was passed down with each generation.

After this, Davis, Evelynn, and the Alchemist who belatedly introduced himself as Johann Strauss when swearing to the heavens completed their oaths to not leak about their transaction to the others and to not kill each other for the sake of benefits!

Reneging on this oath will create a heart demon in their souls, making them unable to cultivate unless they could break the heart demonʼs influence through some uncanny methods.

John Strauss, the Peak-Level Sky Grade Alchemist and also a Poison Master heaved a sigh of relief visibly as all inhibitions and burdens he had come off his mind and shoulders.

”In truth, this cultivation manual that Iʼm about to take out is a Peak-Level King Grade Manual that is passed down through generations as my familyʼs heirloom! However, my family was ultimately destroyed and plundered about more than three hundred years ago in the Poison Lord Villa Territory.”

Saying so, Alchemist Johann took out a rather thick yet worn-out book.

”Itʼs best if you donʼt use it in the Poison Lord Villa Territory as the chances to be noticed by the one who destroyed the Strauss Family greatly increases....”

Davis became shocked before he smiled peacefully.

To acquire a Peak-Level King Grade Poison Attributed Cultivation Manual in exchange for the aggression of a potential Emperor Grade Power? Although not entirely pleasant, it was still worth it.

Besides, that Emperor Grade Power is so far away and that the enmity incurred in the past has probably been forgotten or put aside by now. He didnʼt need to be worried that a person from that power would suddenly be able to find them for no reason.

”In exchange for this Essence Gathering Cultivation Manual, I need that King Grade Pill Recipe you mentioned, and depending upon its value, you need to pay the rest with High-Level Spirit Stones!”

Alchemist Johann Strauss put forward his conditions as he eagerly waited for Davisʼs reply.

Davis then took out a parchment again and engraved the details of the Low-Level King Grade Medicinal Pill with his soul force. He then flicked the parchment, turning it into a scroll before passing it on to Alchemist Johann.

Alchemist Johann scrutinized the Pill Recipe but wasnʼt able to decipher much.

He became awkward and fidgety as he turned to look towards Davis.

Davis quickly caught on to the other partyʼs worry and raised a brow, ”You want me to swear to the heavens again?”

Alchemist Johann Strauss nodded his head in embarrassment.
