Divine Emperor of Death

Chapter 4655: Huge Gains

The marketplace’s next few days proceeded as planned without major incidents.

There were many items that were up for sale that caught his attention. However, his focus had been on fulfilling the cultivation requirements for his family members. After all, resources were of no use if his wives didn’t have the necessary manual to train in.

Hence, he made it a priority to obtain at least one Exalt Grade Manual for every attribute.

Primary Laws mostly consisted of Fire, Water, Metal, Wind, Wood, Earth, Lightning, Light, Darkness, Poison, Sound, Illusion, Charm, and any type of weapon, like the Sword and Spear.

For the fire attribute, he had already collected three cultivation manuals at the Exalt Grade.

[Three Heavens Flamepetal Revolutions], [Seven Nirvanic Flair Bloom], and an incomplete [Soulprism White Flames Records].

Out of these three, the first one he exchanged from that presumed Light Spirit Divergent who found it in a catacomb, and the other two respectively belonged to the Seven-Colored Phoenix Race and the Prismatic Soul Phoenix Race.

In addition to these three, he also obtained an ordinary flame-attribute Exalt Grade Cultivation Manual that came up for auction on the second day. He did it because he needed a pure fire attribute cultivation manual for reference. After all, the previous three required spirits or phoenix blood essences to cultivate properly.

Someone decided to sell it after killing someone from the Flameheart Autarch Sect. Later, it was revealed that the victim was a woman, a supreme genius who had been holding a copy of the Exalt Grade Manual of the Flameheart Autarch Sect for some unknown reason.

This allowed Davis to obtain the [Soaring Flameheart Blaze Arts].

Of course, no Exalt Grade Manual was an ordinary manual. He had only categorized it as a normal manual because he compared it with the previous three manuals. The quality was much greater, and the flaws were very few compared to the Flameheart Autarch Sect’s manual.

The Flameheart Autarch Sect was a major power under the Thundering Serenity Upper Realm, which belonged to the Stormsong Family.

Unlike this woman, it was unfortunate that the Stormsong Family didn’t bring any Exalt Grade Manual. They were much more careful or their security over their manuals was simply astounding.

Regardless, Davis obtained many Exalt Grade Manuals this way.

Perhaps because there was a cursed artifact sold on the first day, the plunderers and opportunists became greedier. After all, even a cursed artifact was sold when it should have been given to Heaven’s Warriors by all right. Compared to that crime, were their crimes extreme?

Even at the risk of their identity being exposed, they sold all sorts of secretive items like manuals, pill recipes, and techniques.

No one thought the second day of the auction would become boisterous and lively.

Davis was glad he stayed instead of leaving.

He obtained many manuals, most of them coming from magical beast clans who wanted to recruit supreme geniuses who were worth breeding and protecting to give birth to feys who would protect their clans.

For the water attribute, which no one in his family trained, he obtained the complete [Eventide Oceanic Surge Codex], which belonged to the Eventide Great Whitewhale Clan, a Great Saint Magical Beast Clan.

For the metal attribute, he obtained the [Indestructible Thousand Metal Codex], which came from the Stone Race.

For the wind attribute, he obtained the [Ephemeral Tempest Scripture], which came from the Greensky Tempest Roc Clan, a Great Saint Magical Beast Clan.

For the wood attribute, he obtained the [Evergreen Myriad Blood Sutra] and [Rooted Demon Vine Records]. The former belonged to the Verdant Myriad Lotus Sect in another galaxy, and the latter belonged to an unknown Demon Tree Race. The latter seemed to have been unearthed in one of the legacies that were found in the Shard Continent.

For the earth attribute, Davis obtained the [Heaven-Burying Mountain Scripture], which honestly made him exhilarated. Why? Because it was a cultivation manual from the extinct Stone Titan Species from the nearly extinct Giant Race. This had also been unearthed from the Shard Continent.

He also obtained the [Ninefold World Tremor Art], a manual belonging to a human race power from another galaxy. He obtained it while he ran the stall, so he didn’t know the origins of it.

Isabella was overjoyed to have both these manuals since the former represented absolute strength and the latter would aid her rumbling techniques. It was like it was practically made for her, except it was a pity that it couldn’t bring out her bloodline powers. Hence, she would also have to sit for years, research, and incorporate. Fortunately, she had Mira to overcome this obstacle faster.

For the lightning attribute, Davis obtained the [Azure Heaven Skybolt Scripture]. It belonged to the Skybolt Pavilion, another major power from the Thundering Serenity Upper Realm.

For the light attribute, Davis had fleeced the White Auspicious Tiger Race and obtained the [Sun-Auspice Illumination Scripture]. It was a light attributed with minor yang inclinations, which contained both the might of yang and luck.

There was also the [Radiant Lotus Resurgence Scripture] that he obtained while running the stall. Its origins were also unknown, but it was a pure light attributed manual.

For the darkness attribute, there was the [Soul-Devouring Yin-Yang Nirvanic Sutra] they had already obtained from the Soul Devouring Demoness. Vereina was now in possession of it, but Davis already had a copy.

Other than this manual, he had also obtained [Supreme Silent Shadow Art] from the Celestial Shadow Sect’s betrayer while running the stall. It was located in the Void Autarch Upper Realm and was one of their subordinates. Regardless, Davis didn’t care as long as he could obtain the manual for his family.

Then there was also the [Eternal Daynight Scripture] that accommodated both light and darkness attributes. It already belonged to Mingzhi. There were also some aspects of twilight in it. Otherwise, Mingzhi wouldn’t have been able to showcase her Supreme Laws in a greater manner during the battle with the Venerable Knights.

For the poison attribute, Davis had no luck.

A manual called the [Thousand Venoms Corrosion Sutra] appeared, but it was bought by Ophirya Kaelis after she sent a soul transmission saying that she would share it with him later, so Davis didn’t bid against her and perfunctorily thanked her.

Regardless, he wasn’t bothered since such a manual would be of little help to his Evelynn.

For the sound attribute, he had obtained the [Heaven-Piercing Symphony Codex]. It actually belonged to the seventh-ranked sect in the Celestial Transcendent Greater Realm, the Universe Melody Pavilion. It was said that they were not too constrictive with their manuals. Instead, their intent was to attract as many sound cultivators as possible to master music arts and protect the human race.

Therefore, he was able to obtain it from their sect member himself for a good price. It was also a way for them to earn wealth.

There was also the [Silent Heart Resonance Sutra], which made Davis’s heart pound while he was bidding for it because it might be a cultivation manual that deciphered the heart and soul. In other words, a cultivation manual for Enigmatic Heart Laws!

Its origins were unknown since it was obtained from the Shard Continent. However, it was a pity that it was a Divine Exalt Grade Manual. Otherwise, he would’ve certainly considered using it as a support manual.
