Divine Emperor of Death

chapter-1847
Eldia rejoiced with excitement even though she was deeply anxious. Her energetic eyes were glowing black as her energy body crackled with extinction lightning as it trapped the heavenly lightning.
Even though her extinction lightning was continuously seared by the heavenly lightning, the enduring nature of the extinction lightning was far higher than the damage the heavenly lightning caused, allowing her to retain them while battling more tribulation strikes!
As the seventh strike descended and got intercepted by her black lightning, she quickly made it disappear after weakening it, allowing the heavenly lightning to hit her.
*Bzzz!~*
Eldia trembled, feeling heavy and distraught.'There's only… two more...'
She thought to herself, wondering if she would be able to endure the last two powerful strikes, especially the last, as she was already feeling almost full in terms of being able to suppress the heavenly lightning from wreaking havoc in her energy body.
No matter what, heavenly lightning was still capable of piercing apart and searing through everything even though her own extinction lightning was powerful than it at the moment.
If she allowed it to get to her Will, then there was little doubt that she would die instantly.
Knowing that she could not relax or stay overconfident for a single moment, she surged with black lightning all over her body, intending to use the last bit of energy in her to survive while suppressing the heavenly lightning and fully believing in Davis, her master, to take over!
*Rumble!~*
The eighth tribulation strike began brewing under the terror of the tribulation clouds. The rumble made numerous spirits who were far away, out of sight, still shiver in horror and reverence. Although they could not see the person undergoing it as so many terrain obstacles blocked the view, they could still see the heavenly tribulation in the skies, brewing, getting ready to strike the tribulation-taker to ashes.*Bzzzz!~*
Blue lightning plunged with a certain heaviness. The vertical arc that came striking down heralded the end of the world for most who saw from a distance after being blinded by a flash of glorious and majestic light.
*Bang!~*
Eldia unleashed a concentrated thick strand of extinction lightning at it as they clashed, causing a booming sound to echo. However, the two bolts of lightning didn't quickly erase each other but fought over supremacy while trying to do so. Once Eldia felt that she had weakened the heavenly tribulation lightning to a handleable state, she purposefully erased the energy, causing the stopped blue lightning to continue falling onto her as it chased.
*Bang!~*
It struck Eldia's body, causing her to shiver as heavenly lightning ran rampant, trying to cause immense damage, but due to the enduring yet compact defense of the extinction lightning she had put up that cost more energy while rapidly exhausting, she was somehow able to capture them and suppress!
Eldia's energy excitedly trembled!
However, she quickly began to take the next steps to stop the ninth and the last strike while the tribulation clouds began seething with blue lightning as well, the shape of the lightning arcs being no longer a snake or thicker snakes but a dragon.
Davis watched this phenomenon and wondered if snakes evolved to dragons, but he couldn't tell as each arc of snakes possessed different faces that looked like lizards, wyverns, and drakes, perhaps even kirins. He didn't bother much with it and eagerly awaited the ninth strike while also feeling heavy and nervous for Eldia because not only was he worried for her, but once she crossed it, her transformation into a spirit might begin, and consequently, she would lose control over the heavenly tribulation lightning that she suppressed, essentially causing a massive surge around her that would destroy her!
Only he could take over and stop it, and that made him nervous, worried that something might go wrong as he had never tried this kind of maneuver before. It made him feel that he should've never recommended this untested method to Eldia, but wanting to reciprocate her trust, he began brimming with soul force as a grayish-white tint shone on his skin, strengthening himself to the point that he almost became impenetrable by any kind of force at the same level using Life Laws.
*Rumble!~*
A thick ten-meter wide dragon formed above, its prowess even more powerful than what Nightveil faced as its prowess almost reached two levels above Peak-Level Ninth Stage, just an inch away. Still, Eldia would've found this way easy to dispel if it weren't for the fact that she was concentrating on suppressing the overbearingness of the previous eight strands of heavenly lightning!
*Bzzzz!~*
The dragon roared as thunder resounded, plunging straight towards Eldia as a flash of blinding light overwhelmed the surrounding spirits. Eldia didn't dawdle and quickly struck with her own lightning!
It slithered like a snake through the air and met with the descending dragon, clashing with each other before her black lightning arc trembled and held on. No, it was more like the heavenly tribulation lightning was struggling to hold on, unable to gain an inch over Eldia's attack.
Davis didn't seem surprised, and neither did Eldia. What's important was the next step to trap it!
*Bzzz!~*
The black lightning disappeared on Eldia's move, allowing the lightning dragon to fall!
"Ahhh!"
It struck Eldia right above her, causing her to scream!
Davis's heart skipped a beat as his expression became solemn.
Did the heavenly lightning pierce through her energy body?
He quickly looked up and saw that the swirling giant tribulation clouds were dispersing.
However, it was so slow that Davis almost inwardly cursed but was anxious that it would react to his insult, making it unwarranted trouble.
"Master… help…"
"…!"
A weak voice echoed from Eldia, causing Davis to no longer give a damn as he rushed towards her. He didn't care if the heavenly tribulation completely ended or not, but life energy rushed out of him, encasing his figure before he neared Eldia, whereupon the life energy quickly rushed towards her eroding energy body, embracing the heavenly lightning.
*Bzzzz!~*
*Rumble!~*
The tribulation clouds above thundered angrily, seemingly slowing down in dispersing as lightning crackled as though they were beginning to brew.
Davis clenched his teeth, expecting this kind of thing to happen.
However, no matter what happened, the amount of tribulation lightning that fell was strictly restricted to nine by all previous records maintained. He didn't believe that it would send another strike, but it might just be different for him as his luck was dirt terrible sometimes!
*Bzzz!~*
Heavenly lightning seared his life energy, trying to penetrate out of it to pierce Eldia. It didn't even bother to target him, but still, Davis felt a bit of difficulty in holding it down as it ran rampant. It wasn't hard for him to extinguish it but to suppress with his life energy, it wasn't enough!
*Rumble!~*
The heavenly tribulation abruptly started disappearing, clearing away swiftly while on the other hand, Eldia's tiny figure was visible amidst the shattered strands of her black lightning where she was curled into a fetal position, black-purplish light beginning to revolve around her.
Davis clenched his teeth and pulled the remnant heavenly lightning strands around her to him, collecting all of them. He looked above and saw that there was no longer anything in the center while the tribulation clouds practically dispersed. At that moment, he sensed Fallen Heaven's presence and quickly used its life energy by invoking its white strands!
*Bzzz!~*
Lightning seared its way through the grayish-white life energy, but then, the grayish tint left, leaving a pure white glow that made the heavenly blue lightning which was voracious and deadly to become meek as it suddenly stopped injuring but instead revolved around the glow without attacking as though they were tamed!
Davis smirked as he looked that he had finally suppressed the heavenly lightning without making it disperse!
'Yes!!! I have once again done it with Fallen Heaven's help!'
He was inwardly ecstatic, struck with euphoria, thanking Fallen Heaven for this kind of ability, to even be capable of suppressing heavenly lightning and making it tame!
The resource in his hands was precious that it could probably even make immortals drool as they could probably refine it with their immortal constitution.
But for him, unless he could get his meridians level to two levels above Peak-Level Ninth Stage, which was just two or three levels higher than him in terms of prowess at the current moment, he could forget about it.
Nevertheless, he quickly began to refine the life energy, and after a moment of hesitation, his eyes that were looking at Eldia's transforming figure that was fully covered in a black-purplish glow turned determined as he directly sent the refined strand of heavenly lightning towards her!
