Divine Emperor of Death

Chapter 908 Hence Proved

Davis smirked in a casual yet knowing light.

Ancestor Dian Alstreim raised his brows as he became taken aback, ”You donʼt seem surprised to know that I know?”

”Of course, Nadia had already sensed an unfamiliar presence in the estate when I was outside, busy ʼprotectingʼ the Conferred Queen from adversaries.” Davis chuckled.

”Nadia... The King-Tier Dark-Winged Twilight Wolf...” Ancestor Dian Alstreim nodded his head.

It was able to hide from his senses, so he didnʼt find it odd.

Nadia was hidden the whole time during the battle exchange, quietly watching over the estate for any kind of intruder so that she could quickly take them down. Ancestor Dian Alstreim wasnʼt able to find her concealment as he didnʼt check too much.

On the other hand, Nadia noticed that there was an anomaly, but by the time she arrived, the anomaly had already disappeared, only leaving the presence of extremely tiny undulations that reverberated in the atmosphere, tickling her senses.

It made her suspect that there was a person who had intruded the estate, so she had informed Davis at an appropriate time.

However, what Ancestor Dian Alstreim didnʼt know was that Nadia hadnʼt even mutated at that time. She managed to evade his senses even while being a Twin-Tailed Dusk Wolf!

”Arenʼt you afraid that I would kill you?” Ancestor Dian Alstreim pulled his hands to his back and clasped and pushed out his undulations in a threatening manner while he stood with a grand demeanor.

”Why would I be afraid?” Davis smirked, ”After looking at this bloodline chamber, I can already read your intent. However, it seems that you miscalculated. If you wanted to check my bloodline, shouldnʼt you have brought my real body to this place?”

”I donʼt think a leader of an entire family could make a silly mistake such as this!” he laughed.

Ancestor Dian Alstreim chuckled and spoke in response, ”I have many reasons not to bring in your real body with the main reason being that you might be scared and resort to outrageous measures like a child who is helpless against a magical beast. Besides, I wanted to see how your current body would react to my sudden attack, but it looks like you were prepared to sacrifice your soul body.”

He shook his head in lament, ”You didnʼt even bat an eye.”

”Hehe...”

Davis just chuckled and didnʼt say anything, letting the misunderstanding remain.

Ancestor Dian Alstreim profoundly smiled and gestured his hand towards the altar, ”Even though it is clear that youʼre related to Claire Alstreim, Iʼd still like to check whether if you truly belong to the Alstreim Family or not.”

”How?” Davis became speechless.

Thereʼs no blood in his soul body. How was Ancestor Dian Alstreim going to check if he belonged to the Alstreim Family or not?

”Donʼt underestimate the Alstreim Family. We possess the expertise to check the relation between the souls. ʼThe relation of the blood only extends to the current life, but the relation of the soul extends to numerous lives of your every incarnation.ʼ”

”Who knows?” Ancestor Dian Alstreim chortled, ”The mythical Reincarnation Cycle might very well be real...”

Davis became taken aback before his eyes lit up, ”You believe in such a thing like reincarnation?”

Ancestor Dian Alstreim shook his head, ”The quote I said is a famous saying from time immemorial. Since it became a famous saying, it should hold some sliver of truth to it. In any case, get on the altar.”

”The soul has a distinct aura similar to your mother and father, just like blood runs deep in the family. However, unlike the blood, it is almost undetectable, even to our soul sense. Furthermore, the distinction and similarity keep decreasing as the generation gap keeps increasing. However, this Soul-Bloodline Chamber is precisely able to find the relation between two souls, although its accuracy only extends to thirty-six generations.”

”Inside the Soul-Bloodline Chamber are the strands of soul essences from all the Ancestors, including me, and as well as our Revered Founder. Iʼve checked the records, and it stated that Claire Alstreim is a descendant of Rave Alstreim, who was the last reigning Ancestor before the advent of my two brothers and me. If youʼre truly the descendant of our Alstreim Family, then the Soul-Bloodline Chamber would not throw you out since I know from the ancestral line records that Claire Alstreim is the twenty-third generation from Ancestor Rave Alstreimʼs line.

”That would make me the twenty-fourth generation from Ancestor Rave Alstreimʼs line.” Davis pursed his lips.

”Thatʼs right!” Ancestor Dian Alstreim fiercely nodded his head, ”Now walk up to the altar! For the Alstreim Familyʼs future, I must be thorough with everything as the last surviving Ancestor!”

”...”

Davis stared at Ancestor Dian Alstreim without avoiding eye-contact.

...

..

.

A minute passed just like that, but neither of them refused to back down or speak any words.

Davis let out a breath before he moved his gaze away from Ancestor Dian Alstreim and walked up to the Soul-Bloodline Chamber. It was not that he lost, but he came to understand the answer that he needed to know.

The excitement and anticipation in Ancestor Dian Alstreimʼs eyes could not be faked. Perhaps, it was Ancestor Dian Alstreim who cannot bear to see that he is not an Alstreim Family descendant. His eyes were so expectant but hidden that his wish could not be seen clearly but could be felt!

Besides, Davis felt that he needed to seek his own answers.

Davis walked on the flat and tiled surface before he stepped on the altar. He stopped for a moment, and observing that nothing seemed to happen, he stepped forwards and moved to the center where there was a mysterious pattern of a circle carved into the surface. It made him remember the spatial formation, but obviously, the markings werenʼt anywhere near the same as he saw on the spatial formation.

He moved into the circle, yet still, nothing seemed to happen.

Ancestor Dian Alstreim waved his hand behind him, and the Soul-Bloodline Chamber started to rock, and the intensity seemed to increase as seconds passed without halting.

*Rumble!~*

Blinding light abruptly flashed over him!

Davis creased his brows as he felt a mysterious power invade his soul sea. However, it was unable to enter his soul sea as he blocked it. The Soul-Bloodline Chamber started to tremble even more, and Davis felt that he would be kicked out of he were to still keep the probe out of him.

It became obvious to him that this formation wasnʼt powerful that it could overwhelm him.

Ancestor Dian Alstreim noticed that Davis was resisting, and just when he was about to remind that it was not dangerous, his expression changed into surprise as he noticed Davis stopped resisting.

Davis took a deep breath before relaxing, and the moment he did, the mysterious power invaded as it entered into his soul sea. It did a sweep and scraped by his soul essence for a while in waves.

Nothing seemed to happen for a while when a blue light suddenly flashed across the entire altar!

”Hahahaha!” Ancestor Dian Alstreim uproariously laughed.

He seemed to have become elated and euphoric with the results of the Soul-Bloodline Chamber.

”...”

However, Davis inwardly heaved a heavy sigh of relief.

Finally, without Claraʼs unearthed power, he was able to ultimately check whether if the current him, Davis Loret, was truly Tian Longʼs next reincarnation or not! And Ancestor Dian Alstreimʼs laughter was more than enough to prove that Davis Loret was indeed Tian Longʼs next incarnation; next life!
