Divine Emperor of Death

Chapter 5160: Breakthrough, Level Four Empyrean Stage

“In fact, he was somewhat at peace with his death.” Davis looked at the fallen Thousand Windblades admiringly, “He probably has done his preparations to enter reincarnation after death.”

“That won’t do.” Evelynn narrowed her eyes, “Quickly end the very existence of his soul.”

“Precisely my intention.”

Davis chuckled, “If not for Calypsea and Lereza, our expedition to the Verdant Vale Lower Realm would’ve all been killed. We cannot live under the same sky, and that goes for all his incarnations. He had only earned himself reprieve from eternal torture.”

“Mhm.” Evelynn nodded satisfactorily.

She found it less and less in her heart to forgive someone after they were close to killing her family members. If it weren’t for Jillian Hayden redeeming herself before she could get to her, she might’ve given her more than a slap even after Davis pleaded for her so much.

“What about those two?”

Evelynn turned to look over at another corner.

They used three corners to tie up Girias and Harmon, Pretzen Grayscale and Wilxes Ingrimm, and then Thousand Windblades. The other corner was occupied by two audience members.

She gazed at Pretzen Grayscale and Wilxes Ingrimm amidst the dense midst.

“They’re still a bit useful when it comes to dealing with those elders outside. But we’ll kill them later along with Thousand Windblades.”

After grabbing Thousand Windblades into his life ring, Davis turned to look toward the Spirit Essence Spring.

“Let’s go bathing.”

“Mhm.”

“You two can also come and enjoy the benefits.”

“We can?”

Jillian Hayden stepped out of the shadows, her gaze a bit worried and doubtful.

After her, the roach movement guy also stepped out, his expression a bit tense, “I don’t want it.”

“Haha, don’t be shy. That’d be my repayment to you two.”

Davis laughed amusedly.

He could tell that they were thoroughly scared of him after witnessing what he did to his enemies. The most terrifying thing wasn’t the torture itself but how helpless they were to fight against it. Their miserable cries still resounded in their ears.

Evelynn also approved of them, so she didn’t say anything. She saw that Davis also intended to recruit Zevonn Malark as a talent since he had revealed himself to him, although she doubted if he wanted to recruit him as a talent or a son-in-law since she saw Davis treat him like a disciple as he had displayed some of his own concealment techniques to him to help him comprehend.

However, she warned them, “You’re only allowed within the outer edge and don’t absorb too much energy until husband breaks through. Only attempt to purify your meridians, strengthen your bones until then.”

Saying their piece, Davis and Evelynn flew towards the Spirit Essence Spring.

Davis landed at the center. He called for Evelynn, but she shook her head and landed at the inner edge.

He chuckled at her before quickly trying to meditate and gain focus, starting to absorb the thick and dense liquid heaven and earth energy into his body. His pores began to drink them greedily.

“…!”

Jillian Hayden and Zevonn Malark’s eyes widened as they saw the pool rapidly start to descend.

The Divine Emperor of Death was absorbing this pool like he was draining it out!

‘How strong is he!?’

They could tell this was a dense High-Level Primarch Grade Spirit Essence Spring. It would take hours and days before dozens of Peak-Level Autarch supreme geniuses could empty it, but it was rapidly draining as though he had opened some kind of drain mechanism inside.

*Bzzz!~*

After a few minutes, Evelynn was the first one to break through to the Level Four Empyrean Stage.

By this time, the pool was about thirty-five percent gone.

Time quickly passed, but neither Jillian Hayden nor Zevonn Malark entered.

They were not only scared but also had their own worries. Jillian Hayden didn’t want to break through to the Exalt Stage right now, and Zevonn Malark didn’t want to continue with his Primarch Stage Cultivation since Davis advised regression and re-cultivating to him.

He had accepted the Divine Emperor of Death’s power. However, he still planned to purify his meridians and strengthen his bones, so he planned to enter later.

Jillian Hayden was also the same.

However, with the pool rapidly draining like this, they didn’t think they would have anything left for them.

*Bzzz!~*

The undulations didn’t come from Davis but from Evelynn as she broke through Level Five Empyrean Stage.

It might seem like she was draining the pool faster with how fast she was breaking through with her cultivation base, but she barely absorbed three percent of the pool.

Davis was like a devouring vortex.

His body and soul demanded endlessly as they brought the Spirit Essence Spring’s capacity to a meager twenty percent when he finally broke through.

‘Heavens! He really is only at Level Three Empyrean Stage, finally managing to break through into Level Four Empyrean Stage…!’

Jillian Hayden and Zevonn Malark thought as their minds shuddered.

They felt he was just playing with them since he could manipulate their perception as he wished, but during a breakthrough, the undulations released could almost never be faked!

Seeing the Divine Emperor of Death enter the Level Four Empyrean Stage in two months of his tribulation, they were actually scared to death.

How fast can he cultivate if he actually had the resources lined up for him?

*Bzz!~*

At this moment, Evelynn also broke through into the Level Six Empyrean Stage. Her cultivation base didn’t destabilize at all since the spring constantly purified her meridians and stabilized her foundation, allowing her energy to flow better.

She felt like she could reach Level Seven Empyrean Stage before her cultivation reached a state of saturation for the current session.

“What are you two still waiting for? The pool cannot be taken away, or it would alarm the Hexadra Clan, so come inside and enjoy it.”

Davis’s voice echoed enigmatically, finally causing Jillian Hayden and Zevonn Malark to move.

They landed at the outer edge and began to purify their meridians and strengthen their bones as well as enjoy other benefits the Spirit Essence Spring gave them.

Time passed rather quickly.

The pool went dry as Davis managed to stabilize his cultivation at the Level Four Empyrean Stage.

Evelynn also entered the Level Seven Empyrean Stage, but her cultivation base was slightly unstable.

Jillian Hayden gained immense boons to her flesh, blood, and meridians, while Zevonn Malark also looked quite excited. His illness was thoroughly suppressed by this boon. He imagined it wouldn’t flare up until later in the Primarch Stage.

However, the Divine Emperor of Death seemingly had a cure for it already on top, allowing him to re-cultivate without consequences, so he was excited for his future.

“A pity…” Davis said with a sigh as he rose up, “If only we could go to the few other Bastion Cities which have these springs and plunder them right under the nose of the Hexadra Clan. Then, our Davis Family can collectively improve our cultivations by a high margin. It’s really a pity that we can’t go ‘resource harvesting’ right now.”

He flew out and exited the Spring Essence Spring as he landed on the damp surface that had traces of blood running over the crevices. It was obviously from Harmon and Girias.

With the Bloodline Suppression Hex, they can forget about making use of this flowing blood to attack or call for help.

Davis turned to look at their half-dead corpses. He expected some challenge, but with everything going smoothly, he didn’t know whether to feel sad at facing no challenge or be prideful of his strength.

Evelynn and the others also came out of the pool.

Jillian Hayden and Zevonn Malark thanked Davis and Evelynn.

“Time to deal with these elders standing outside patiently for us to finish.”

Davis walked towards the exit where the elders were waiting.

Having reached Level Four Empyrean Stage, his Will had also become tremendously powerful by a minor stage!

He wanted to see if he could corrupt their Wills in one go!
