Divine Emperor of Death
chapter-1149

Around the time Davis left for the Hundred Devil Thunder Archipelago, the Solitary Soul Avatar had also set out for a journey to find Ellia and Princess Shirley, mostly keen on the latter since Davis felt that Princess Shirley should be present in the Burning Phoenix Ridge.

He felt that there was at least a fifty percent chance as that was the place to go if Princess Shirley wanted to get stronger in Fire Laws. Otherwise, he felt that he would've at least heard about her in the Alstreim Family Territory since it was also a Territory that specialized in Fire Laws, but since the two of them ran down the Falling Snow Sect, he mused that Shirley could've only reached the Burning Phoenix Ridge.

With that decided, the Solitary Soul Avatar silently left the Grand Alstreim City and reached the southeast Territory Gate that led to the Tripartite Alliance.

Davis's soul body speed was tremendously fast that it reached five hundred kilometers per second on average! It reached ninety percent of his limit.

Compared to fleshly bodies, which needed to deal with the air resistance and space restriction, soul bodies were an existence that only needed to deal with the space restriction, and that made their speeds abnormally fast that any physical existences at the same stage and level!

To compare... while Law Sea Stage Experts can travel at a maximum flying speed of a hundred kilometers per second, the stage lower Supreme Soul Stage Experts can use their soul bodies to travel a known maximum of five hundred kilometers per second!

This comparison also meant that any Low-Level Supreme Soul Stage Soul Body's speed is greater than any Peak-Level Law Sea Stage Cultivator!

Only Martial Sage Stage Experts could compare with those Supreme Soul Stage Soul Bodies as their fleshly bodies are simply strong enough to split or scatter the air resistance in front of them.

Nevertheless, Davis's Solitary Soul Avatar crossed a hundred and twenty thousand kilometers in five minutes as he quickly arrived at the Tripartite Alliance Territory. From there, he directly shot towards the south, heading to the Territory Gate that led to the Falling Snow Sect.

Yes, usually, Davis would think of the southern direction as the Desolate Plains, but after obtaining the entire Fifty-Two Territories general map, he came to understand why the Territories in this region were called Nine Western Territories.

It was because they were undoubtedly at the east side of the entire Fifty-Two Territories, with the Tripartite Alliance being the east most Territory present on the map.

Davis didn't know about this information first when he first came here, or the second time he came here, so he naturally wasn't aware. Now that he was aware, that changed the map he had in his mind. His mind-map got promptly rewritten, and so, the Desolate Plain was now towards the west, and the Territory Gate leading towards the Falling Snow Sect was towards the south.

In five freaking minutes, he arrived at the Territory Gate, but it took him another five minutes to enter and exit the Territory Gate, entering the Falling Snow Sect Territory like a normal human being after paying the toll. The cultivators there were not even able to recognize that he was similar to a soul-body but thought of him as a normal human cultivator. After all, the strongest cultivator present in the Tripartite Alliance was no stronger than Peak-Level Law Dominion Stage Experts.

Nevertheless, it was the same for the other end.

However, Davis was a bit flabbergasted to see the ice-veiled beauties flying over them for security and defensive purposes. He knew that they were Falling Snow Sect disciples just from seeing their lovely yet icy white attire. One of them seemed to be an Eighth Stage Expert causing him to nod his head in appreciation just for her temperament and bearing.

The atmosphere was seethed with a bit of chill, but to Davis, it was nothing. He took flight and shot past the horizons, directly making his way towards the south again!

As a small-sized Territory, the Falling Snow Sect Territory also had three Territory Gates linking up to the Tripartite Alliance in the northeast, Weapon Refining Villa in the southwest, and the Dual Lotus Manor in the southeast!

Davis was directly making his way south to head towards the Dual Lotus Manor. He needed to travel a hundred and fifty thousand kilometers, almost the same distance he traveled from the Alstreim Family Territory Gate to the Falling Snow Sect Territory Gate to reach the Dual Lotus Manor. He could directly arrive in five minutes if he so wished, but the scenery around him made him do otherwise.

Pink, yellow, and purple blossoms bloomed around him. He was just suddenly taken aback by the scenery, slowing down as he saw the magical beasts roaming around on the mountain ranges. He had no idea what this place was called, but it seemed so peaceful and serene that nature remained in harmony with heaven and earth energy.

Davis fell into a trance before he arrived at a river between a mountain passageway while the colorful blossoms bloomed on both sides, feeling like he had stepped into an immortal fairies mountain range.

Well, that was until he saw a thirty-meter wide wingspan eagle devour a ten-meter long waterfall snake in a bloody manner!

Davis's eyes twitched.

He realized that he was wrong for needlessly fantasizing.

Nevertheless, he couldn't refute that the beauty of this blossoming mountain far outclassed the aesthetics of any sceneries or even the floating palaces and buildings he saw in the Grand Alstreim City.

He could only think, 'As expected of the Falling Snow Sect Territory. The environment was as beautiful as those flowers in the Falling Snow Sect.'

As he slowly traveled at a speed of ten kilometers per second at the height of a kilometer, enjoying the sceneries and sights of cultivators battling against magical beasts to gain resources, he spotted a city.

It spanned around millions of square kilometers, and people were bustling to and fro on it, seemingly without any problems. He took his eyes off and continued his journey.

However, he suddenly noticed that Eighth Stage undulations were flaring off like an alarm in the distant mountain region. Specifically, they were becoming chaotic and disturbed.

Davis's attention was caught as he narrowed his eyes. The entire scenery was one of cherry blossoms and greenery, but his eyes caught four to five figures fighting on the other top of the mountain range before they fell towards the other side.

However, his eyes went wide as he noticed a familiar person.

"Urghhh..." A white-robed woman voiced out a low grunt as she was flung out of the mountain range. The white-crystalline sword she had in her grasp burst apart into many crystalline pieces while the icicle barrier in front of her broke as she spat a mouthful of blood!

She had been injured, taking a hit to her dantian, making her unable to circulate her chaotic energy.

"Obediently come with us!!!" Flames blazed from the hilt of a hammer as a red-robed bald man was propelled downwards. He plunged towards the abyss and swung like a monster with brute strength as his arms grew like a gorilla's!

*Boom!~*

The hammer struck right on the white-robed woman's stomach, but an amulet-shaped protective artifact emerged out of nowhere and suddenly glowed with a white hue, crystallizing the red-robed man's attack into a plethora of icicle shard spikes before it shot towards him in a blinding speed.

'Mid-Level Emperor Grade Protective Artifact!'

The red-robed man's scalp tingled as he instantly retreated with his legs moving in a distinct way, dodging the icicle shards that came flying at him. The last of it had had just shot past his side, scratching his face when another white-robed woman suddenly came flying at him, her sword targeted right at his glabella.

His scalp went numb as he brought his hammer towards his face and blocked.

*Clang!~~*

He was sent flying as a result!

"Tanya, escape no matter what!" The white-robed woman with the pristine white sword screamed at the other white-robed woman who uncontrollably plunged towards the foot of the mountain.

This white-robed woman who witnessed Tanya's plight instantly threw ice sand on those two opponents who held her back and came to help. Now, she didn't go help Tanya but shot towards the red-robed man with the hammer and uttered with hostility seething in her voice, "Die!"

The red-robed man with the hammer clenched his teeth and swung his two-meter tall hammer in rage! Icy sharpness clashed with the hammer's blunt end that was covered in flames!

*Boom!~*

An explosion echoed as flames and ice shattered the surrounding mountain. Both of them were encased by the resulting explosion, their silhouettes nowhere to be seen among the smoke. Their undulations also became undetectable due to the explosion making the surrounding space turbulent.

"Haha! Boss, we'll take care of our sweet Tanya then!"

"Idiot, I'm going to capture her before she falls and princess-carry her!"

The two other red-robed men with short black hair didn't bother about the white-robed woman and flew towards the falling Tanya.

"Kill!" The white-robed woman's veil fell, revealing a middle-aged but mature face.

She pointed at the two red-robed men who went after Tanya as an ice-veil suddenly appeared between them and Tanya, blocking their route.

The two red-robed men went utterly red-faced as they were once again held back even though they were all three of them were Mid-Level Eighth Stage Experts!

"Idiots, fall back!" The red-robed with the hammer shouted, his bald head gleaming as he uttered, "Domain!"

Instantly, a fiery atmosphere filled the entire region, threatening to lock the white-robed woman. However, she danced like a fairy in the air, twisting her body with the sword in her hand, a low sound echoing from her pale lips as she pointed the sword at them.

"Stranded Ice-Thread Domain~."

Glittering strands of ice ballooned, overwhelming the fiery atmosphere as it was pushed back. It traveled towards the front, encasing the two dumbfounded red-robed men.

The ice-veil hanging suddenly turned transparent, turning the entire space transparent as the flora disappeared. It was as if ice-veil impeded the reflection of light, hiding the surroundings' perception as a result. The strands of ice from the domain suddenly connected with the ice-veil, entering it. The two red-robed men were instantly caught in that strange domain technique, unable to leave as they looked as if an ice prison flattened them.

However, a huge flaming hammer arrived and smashed the ice veil, shattering it into it millions of glittering crystals.

However...

"I was late!" The red-robed man who threw the hammer saw one of his men had been crushed flat, blood spurting out like a fountain. Despite the body being utterly decimated by crushing ice, a soul body shot out with fury.

"Ahhh!!! You old hag! How dare you!?"
