Divine Emperor of Death-Novel

Chapter 2337 Still Wolf

Davis and the others stared at the leaving silhouettes.

Once the Law Enforcement Vice Elder left, it was like a mountain that had been taken off their shoulders.

"Woah, so efficient. I wish to have a Law Enforcement like this for my big family in the future..."

Davis couldn't help but lightly chuckle, plopping his butt on Nadia's soft and fluffy coat of fur.

Eldia still hovered, but her body was shaky while Evelynn also plopped like him, seemingly having gone limp. The only one who didn't seem affected by the Immortal King Beast pressure emanated by the Law Enforcement Vice Elder was Nadia.

She appeared to heave a sigh of relief as she took a deep breath before a wide smug appeared on her face. After all, the fact that she escaped from the senses of an Immortal King Beast left her feeling immense pride.

"Fortunately, that crimson-robed man didn't turn into a Fire Phoenix. Otherwise, I would've found it hard to remain concealed amidst his intensifying undulations."

Only she knew how close to the limit she was from breaking the concealment that once the Fire Phoenix Immortal King started releasing his energy, she was inwardly sweating, afraid that she might lose focus and cause the concealment to collapse.

If that happened, they would all be toast within seconds if that Fire Phoenix Immortal King Beast refused to stay his hand.

"That Untouchable Dark Disappearance you uttered… is that a species technique?"

"Yes, master." Nadia proudly transmitted to them as her voice would be booming loud, "As my inherited memories became clearer, I found that I have nine species techniques with me. Without the Untouchable Dark Disappearance that belonged to my Dark-Winged Twilight Wolf Bloodline, we would've been found out. My normal concealment could in no way work against an Immortal King Beast's senses."

Davis nodded, understanding the gist, but he also couldn't help but feel excited. His Nadia retained all the powers of her previous bloodlines, and what's more, they were all incorporated into her nature which is death. This was the wonder of bloodline mutation.

However, they were considered deviants within the magical beast race and often discriminated against. Like deviants, variants were also discriminated against, but that was just how magical beasts moved out. Anything that is their species but did not look like them was an insult to them, to the bloodline they prided themselves upon.

To desecrate it was a sin and unless those variants were not strong enough, they would be easily discriminated against.

Nonetheless, he wondered how different Nadia was from a true Nether Springs Death Wolf.

Did it have three tails? Did it have wings? Did it have a pitch-black horn?

Perhaps that's why no one recognized Nadia, including Myria.

Still, Nadia was just too much of a monster with her current arsenal, able to cross an entire realm in concealment, although her battle prowess was still unknown, needing to be checked. However, he saw that she was still inexperienced as he saw her continue onward.

"Nadia, don't move. If I'm not wrong, that Vice Elder will return here within a few minutes, according to my guesses stemming from experience..."

"…!?"

Nadia froze in mid-air.

Evelynn and Eldia were also alarmed. That Immortal King would return?

Meanwhile, Davis stared at the ruins of the bandit stronghold below. He squinted his eyes as he activated the colorless tendril of Fallen Heaven. However, he couldn't see much karmic sin in the air, causing him to become disinterested.

The amount of karmic sin there was truly low for him to risk revealing himself.

Just as they stayed silent, it wasn't even five minutes before a sneaky figure appeared from the southern direction.

It was that crimson-robed man who had just left in that direction.

Although that crimson-robed figure had his undulations in check, his leaping silhouette that moved from tree to tree while hiding himself was plain for them to see because they had the altitude advantage.

"…"

He slowly neared them. However, the moment he stepped on a tree that was scorched, its branches withered, and the branch broke, causing him to lose his balance and fall.ʀᴇᴀᴅ ʟᴀᴛᴇsᴛ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀᴛ novelenglish.net . ꜰɪre.ɴet

Instantly, his undulations surged, causing him to freeze in mid-air as he saved himself from plunging to the ground. After that, he no longer bothered to suppress his undulations and flew into the air, his expression becoming unsightly.

"Fire Phoenixes don't have concealment techniques…?" Eldia's lips twitched.

"Eldia, don't laugh..."

Although Davis said that, even he was holding back his laughter while Evelynn had already folded into a fetal position as she trembled, doing her best not to laugh out loud.

Looking at an Immortal King sneak around to find them was more comical than they imagined but noticing him fall and accidentally unleash his undulations was beyond comical. It could be seen that he was not used to suppressing his cultivation to sneak around.

On the other hand, only Nadia didn't laugh. For one reason, she couldn't laugh or risk dispelling the concealment. Another reason was if she had flown away, then that would've left a trail again, allowing that Immortal King to once again follow them. By that time, even if he couldn't detect them, he would've confirmed his suspicion that something fishy was going on in this area.

Fortunately, Davis had warned her, causing her to inwardly heave a sigh of relief.

"We wait for an hour." Controlling his laughter, Davis warned them.

The next few minutes were thrilling as the Immortal King surveyed the landscape and even the skies. Fortunately, he didn't come closer but shook his head and left.

In these fifteen minutes, Davis and the others only uttered a few sentences as the atmosphere was stifling but now that the Immortal King had left, they relaxed.

"Nadia, can you hold on a bit more?"

"Of course, master. I can hold this extreme concealed state as long as my energy lasts, which means I can last for two or three days."

Nadia confidently answered as she had already investigated her capability while remaining still for all these minutes.

"Awesome."

Davis's brows raised in joy, realizing that this was a passive species technique of the Emperor-Tier Dark-Winged Twilight Wolf. Moreover, since Nadia had just become an immortal beast and hadn't fully gained control of her undulations, making it difficult for her to conceal herself, this species technique of hers was only bound to be more powerful and energy-efficient in the future.

Even as a Level One Immortal Beast, she could deceive the senses of Immortal King Beast as long as she stayed still or moved very slowly. This was a matter worthy of celebration and praise.

"Well, all that's left is to wait until for some more time. We don't know if he will appear again."

Evelynn and the others nodded. They began waiting, passing their time in silence.

Quickly, Eldia became bored and started to roll around Nadia's fur, feeling that it was a luxury. Because Nadia had her death energy concealed inside her body, her fur wasn't particularly hurtful to them either.

Davis and Evelynn laughed as they watched the simpleton spirit. It wasn't long before Evelynn closed in on him, sitting beside him as she laid her head on his shoulder. He subconsciously reached out and began caressing her silky hair.

"Evelynn, I must say-"

"I know." Evelynn quickly answered, "It's unsafe to cross my immortal tribulation today."

Davis wryly smiled, "I apologize for being unable to provide you a safe place to-"

"No!" She raised her head and quickly turned to look at him.

"If I didn't have you, I wouldn't even have made it to this level, much less look for a place to undergo my immortal tribulation. Please don't apologize when there's nothing to apologize for. Besides, I just made up my mind not to undergo tribulation due to other reasons."

"I was about to say cite those reasons to convince you..." Davis nodded his head.

"Well, I'm already convinced after witnessing Eldia and Nadia's tribulation."

"Yup, it is far-fetched for the current you to cross your heavenly tribulation."

"I agree." Evelynn's lips curved into an ironical smile, "Even with my karmic virtue, to think that my heavenly tribulation is eight levels higher."

"…"

Davis didn't know what to say as he couldn't help but find this matter ridiculous.

There were various factors that made Evelynn's tribulation nine levels higher, and he felt that it was utterly ridiculous beyond comparison!

One, Evelynn had peaked all three of her cultivation systems, causing her heavenly tribulation's prowess to become a level higher.

Two, because she absorbed Misteltae's blood that had gone through a heavenly tribulation but failed, she was inflicted with her heavenly tribulation's prowess becoming one more level higher.

Third, she absorbed the blood of an immortal beast, causing her immortal tribulation's prowess to become two more levels higher. This applied to both humans and feys. Furthermore, since that immortal beast was an Emperor-Tier Immortal Beast, it added four more levels to the difficulty.

And last but not least, his karmic burden flowing down to her added one more level to the difficulty.

This made it so that her immortal tribulation was practically nine levels higher in prowess!

However, due to his act of bestowing her with bright-gold karmic virtue, her tribulation's prowess should decrease by a level in theory.

However, the immortal tribulation was still eight levels higher!

Even if he bestowed her with a purplish-gold karmic virtue, her tribulation's prowess should still be seven levels higher!

It would be on the same level as Nadia faced, even though it would not be an aggressive Destructive Immortal Tribulation. After all, the last three strikes would definitely reach seven levels higher in prowess, and it was unknown if Evelynn could endure those strikes!
