Divine Emperor of Death

Davis's gaze fell on the Void Dust Tree girl. He couldn't help but blink as he felt like he saw her appear bigger in the corner of his eyes.

Was it just his imagination?

His soul sense silently crept up on the Void Dust Tree girl but other than her spirit, he couldn't sense anything.

Finding nothing of concern, he turned his head and saw Klein Zyrus's tied-up figure.

With the slave seal, he knew that Klein Zyrus was already awake. Perhaps, he had already seen what he had done and came to the conclusion Mo Tian and Dead End were the same person. Still, no matter what Klein Zyrus found, it didn't matter as Klein Zyrus's life was still in his hands.

He only needed a single thought to cause Klein Zyrus's soul to collapse, so he wasn't worried. In truth, he was amused that Klein Zyrus tried to act as though he was asleep, perhaps because he didn't want to wake up to this reality.

Returning his gaze, Davis looked at the drop of blood essence that contained the profundities of the Earth Dragon. It was formed when his Grand Chaos Body Art seeped through every part of his body and extracted all bloodlines out of him, leaving the most concentrated form of blood essences available to him in the form of droplets stored in his middle dantian.

One of them was the Earth Dragon's Blood Essence. He could also use it to emulate the aura of Earth Dragon if he wanted to. The same went for the other two blood essences in his body, belonging to the Fire Phoenix and Blazing Thunderlight Kirin. There was also a bit of Ice Phoenix Blood Essence, but he already shared it with Natalya when he slept with her after shortly entering the First Haven World.

It did help her with Ice Laws, but she didn't choose to pursue the power of Ice Phoenix as those were, in actuality, flames. Despite already possessing diluted Ice Phoenix Blood Essence, she didn't train in it because it would be incompatible with her Forsaken Yin Lotus Manual.

Nevertheless, he was thinking of giving this Earth Dragon's Blood Essence to Evelynn or Isabella, but with Mira's transformation, there was no longer the need for that, allowing him to spend it as he pleased.

He burned the blood essence, and the resulting aura flooded the world, plunging in immense weight that even the distant Void Dust Tree started quavering as though it was going to collapse.

The Void Dust Tree's spirit raised her hands and quickly shrouded her true body from harm as a spatial barrier appeared around it. However, she didn't blame Davis but instead watched what was going to happen as her adorable eyes blinked.

'What now…?'

The 'asleep' Klein Zyrus couldn't stay still as his heart leaped. These were the same undulations Mo Tian possessed.

*Boom!~*

In a few minutes, a mild shockwave caused his body to be thrown into the distance as he rolled around, breathing in the void dust that caused him to almost sneeze. However, he kept his mouth shut, wanting to not exist as much as possible as he desperately tried to hold onto his last bit of sanity, still unable to believe that he would find himself to be enslaved when he woke up.

*Bang!~*

"Yes, another batch of heavenly wind blades…!"

There was a strange, excited cry that buzzed in his head.

What heavenly wind? What batch?

Was this even real?

Davis captured a heavenly wind blade and proceeded to refine it with his life energy after he broke it. He could sense the wind blade was stronger than the last punishment's second strike, but still, it was unable to harm him in the slightest.

His body tempered by the Grand Chaos Body Art using the Chaos Essence Orb was just too strong for it to break.

*Bang!~*

Another heavenly wind blade ripped through space, leaving countless ripples in a line before it got stuck before Davis's figure, unable to slice through his hold. It was also broken down and engulfed to be refined, causing the heavens to be infuriated.

*Rumble!!~*

The Void Dust Tree Spirit was scared that she flew back to the tree while Klein Zyrus finally opened his eyes, his eyelids parting as his gaze fell on the bright starry sky, unleashing a tiny ripple that started at some point, plunging towards a majestic black-robed man surrounded by five little azure curved blades.

*Bang!~*

It got stopped in the hand of whom he perceived to be Dead End like it was some kind of pebble.

'No… no… no...'

As he watched Dead End refine the heavenly wind strike with some kind of pure white energy instead of dying, his vision blurred, and a heart demon took over his mind, causing him to become unconscious again.

Meanwhile, Davis successfully refined the sixth strand of heavenly wind, keeping it around him. Instead, he looked at his right palm, where he found a scratch.

The sixth strike, or rather, the third strike of the second batch, was finally able to injure him somewhat.

Davis imagined if he pulled the same stunt again, he might become injured badly.

After all, if the heavenly wind blade was able to even put the slightest incision in him, it would only need to be a bit more powerful to be able to cleave him apart like it was cutting tofu. At that time, he wouldn't even know what struck him.

The sixth strike was also difficult to follow that he almost failed to catch it. Its speed was incredible that he didn't dare underestimate it any longer!

However, he still couldn't help but frown.

After all, he comprehended Level Seven Abstruse Intent for Earth Laws and created a mutated Supreme Immortal Earth Crest using the Earth Dragon's Blood Essence as a sacrifice and all the remnant energy around him that came from void dust and immortal crystals to fuel the transformation!

He thought he wouldn't encounter a punishment since he figured that cheating the restriction placed on comprehension for the same cultivation system wouldn't invoke a punishment, but now, he was proven wrong.

Becoming intensely curious, he couldn't help but ask Fallen Heaven.

"Sigh… you really want to know?"

"Why not?" Davis blinked at hearing Fallen Heaven's tired voice.

"Lad, you previously encountered Heavenly Wind Tribulation, but it was dispersed by someone else. You told me to remind you and forgot. Chances are that you would forget this information again in a few seconds."

"…!"

Davis became shocked. Quickly, a few fragments of his memory that he knew that it never existed replayed in his mind like a tidal wave washing over him, causing him to feel goosebumps.

There was a figure veiled by a tremendous light. He could only recall the silhouette reminiscent of a humanoid figure. With just the image, he couldn't tell what race that person belonged to, much less the gender. However, the numbing eeriness he felt at that time, as though the world had come to a stop, could only belong to one single person in his mind.

A person that both induced feelings of reverence and fear in his heart.

'World Master…?'
