Divine Emperor of Death

Chapter 1598 – Ice Phoenix Mistress

*Sila!~*

Three Low-Level Law Rune Stage Powerhouses and a Mid-Level Law Rune Stage Powerhouse who were closer collapsed as they possessed a hole on their heads.

Evelynn lowered her hands and clenched her fists, biting her lips as she trembled from the usage of her Hex Laws. Her third eye that shone with a blue light acted as a sealing hex, causing those three powerhouses to be unable to invoke their cultivations.

She glanced down and looked at her purple hands. Her strength was clearly increasing at an alarming rate that she could feel that in her palms. It was only a few hours after she transformed, but she was already nearing the peak of the High-Level Ninth Stage while her prowess with Hex Laws made her abnormally strong!

It was undoubtedly the effect of turning into a fey. She drank the entire blood essence of the Three-Eyed Chromatic Hex Arachnid that was at the Peak-Level Emperor Beast Stage, so it was quite normal that she reached this level in a few hours and would continue to passively raise her level as time passes until she reached the Peak-Level Ninth Stage.

Added on with the Earth Dragonʼs Blood Essence that mixed, it just made her even more physically stronger but not physically stronger like Isabella.

Nevertheless, the price for gaining this power remained steep, but she didnʼt care for it with her eyes being clouded by vengeance.

”AHHH!!!”

In the beginning, Evelynnʼs green gaseous poison that she unleashed was spreading without stop, killing all the people below, massacring the entire Poison Lord Villa as fast as possible. However, she still wasnʼt satiated as she took a step forward and rushed at the powerhouses while their hearts almost jumped out of their throats.

”EVERYONE! RETREAT!”

In the Grand Sea Continent.

Clara reached Firzen Island and entered the hidden inheritance site, looked after by the current Grand Sea Alliance, especially the Loret Empire and the Ashton Empire. It had risen up to the surface but maintained a barrier that would only open at the time of the next opening but also allowed people who had previously cleared their trials to enter anytime possible.

Clearly, the Earth Dragonʼs Immortal Inheritance and the Fire and Ice Phoenixʼs Immortal Inheritances had different workings, requirements, and conditions to enter.

Clara entered the cave and walked down the stairs as if though it was leading to the tomb. The left side was filled with an icy surface, while the right side was scorching hot. Neither affected her as she carried her foot all the way to a junction and was forced to go either left or right.

She took the left path where it led to the Ice Phoenix Immortal Inheritance.

It was Claraʼs third time entering this beautiful icy cave aligned with crystalline quartz crystals. As for the second time, she went to get the treasures and not to participate in the Immortal Grade Trial. But now, considering her current age and prowess, she was more than qualified to clear such a trial and had the confidence to do so.

At this moment, an icy gas began to elevate before it reformed into the image of a beautiful bird with a sharp beak, gorgeous feathers atop its head and shoulders, possessing attractive icy-blue eyes that could charm people.

Clara deeply bowed, ”Ice Phoenix Mistress, I have come to seek help and clear the Immortal Grade Trial!”

”Excellent. Your progress within this time is splendid, while I also hope that you havenʼt skimped on making progress with your comprehension of laws. Nevertheless, what kind of help do you need?”

Clara nodded and hurriedly explained about Davisʼs health.

”So you say that a wolf that possesses Death Laws and the inheritor of the Earth Dragon who is at the Ninth Stage claims that this person is still alive but could not find this manʼs soul?”

”Yes, I want to hear Ice Phoenix Mistressʼs opinion on it. Could that man be saved?”

”There are countless possibilities, but the two most prominent ones are that his soul collapsed after he sacrificed his soul essence, leaving him to be a vegetable as his body has its own will to live or that he himself used a unique technique on his soul to hide in the confines of his body, perhaps his lower dantian or middle dantian, making it so that his body knows that he is still alive.”

”Is such a thing possible?”

”Little Clara.” The Ice Phoenix Mistress adopted a soft tone.

”Immortals are the amalgamation of body and essence combining as one while the soul is left out to grow individually like your current Soul Forging Cultivation. However, another cultivation route to immortality was also growing increasingly prominent in my time, called the Transcendent Path. When you become Transcendent, you combine your essence, body, and soul all into one, but the Immortal Path doesnʼt require such a state of combining all three systems; essence, body, and soul into one. So Clara, do you think that itʼs possible for a conscious to uniquely exist within the body while excluding the soul in this manner?”

Clara couldnʼt help but nod her head in a dumbfounded manner.

”If he is alive and intentionally concealing his soul, then that means he would eventually recover himself. However, the fact remains that no one knows his true state, and you did not bring him to me, nor would I let someone like that in as Iʼm no generous character myself. But since you, a potential inheritor, asked, Iʼll tell you that there is one way to save him.”

”What is it!? Please tell me...! Iʼll do anything!”

Claraʼs eyes shone with a hopeful glint while her expression was full of excitement.

”Good!” The Ice Phoenix Mistressʼs eyes shone with an icy-blue light, ”You have to inherit my Ice Phoenix Soul after you clear the Immortal Grade Trial, learn the Nirvanic Phoenix Soul Scripture, and perform the Revival From The Ashes Soul Technique, bestowing him the ability to recover his soul essence by burning the Phoenix Soul.”

”Really!? Thatʼs all I have to do!?” Claraʼs eyes were wide in shock and happiness.

”Remind you that thereʼs a good chance that you will lose the Phoenix Soul that you inherited from me and lose the ability to perform a nirvanic rebirth if you ever to be on the brink of death.”

”I donʼt care! All I want to do is to save my brother!”

Claraʼs face was full of smiles. She hadnʼt smiled like that for probably her entire latter part of her life as she held her hands together over her bosoms, feeling extremely fortunate to hear this information to heal her brother.

However...

”Brother...?”

The Ice Phoenix Mistressʼs confusion suddenly captured Claraʼs attention.

”I presumed that man was your lover since you were so happy, and Iʼve never seen you smile. In any case, if you could find your brotherʼs soul in his soul sea ordinarily, it wouldnʼt matter as at least thereʼs a chance to make him recover. However, you say that you cannot find his soul and his soul sea collapsed, leaving the only method to execute that fabled technique is to truly connect with him, which is to embrace him intimately, becoming one as lovers would.”

”...!?”

Claraʼs expression froze, but the Ice Phoenix Mistress continued.

”Two lovers usually do this in order to ensure full effectiveness of the Revival From The Ashes Soul Technique, as you can read so in Nirvanic Phoenix Soul Scripture. However, if you say that it is your brother, then it is truly a forbidden decision to make.”

Claraʼs expression shook as she heard its words. She was completely shaken, not knowing what to do as her mind almost went blank.

”What is it going to be?”

”I...” Clara couldnʼt help but open and close her mouth constantly, her purple eyes trembling for a few seconds before determination shone in her eyes.

”Iʼll still do it...”

The Ice Phoenix Mistressʼs eyes glowed with an icy blue light.

”I understand~”
