Divine Emperor of Death
chapter-2992

"Ethereal Soulcleaver…"

One of the Fire Phoenix Clan's Ancestors uttered with a heavy breath as they knew it was a High-Level Immortal Emperor Stage Armament.

The blade's color was emerald, shining with a jade light. The crossguard of the oversized sword was covered in white fur, while the hilt of the sword was gray in color. The emerald blade appeared like a big fang, but its sharpness was incomparable to a true fang.

This was a true killing armament, specifically made to cleave souls with its unmatched sharpness in a single strike.

Davis was also outside the palace on one of its many platforms. He had his brows raised, wondering why the Starlight Jade Wolf King didn't deign to use it on him as he could feel the air of death on him from it.

It could certainly kill him in a single strike.

He felt like he had underestimated the reserves of the Starlight Jade Wolf Clan. Even if they were to die, they would cause mass destruction before dying.

Nonetheless, the Ancestors of the Fire Phoenix Clan possessed solemn expressions on their faces.

"Starlight Jade Wolf King. It's not too late to back out from the agreement you made with the Anarchic Divergent."

"You gained a few things and lost a few. That's how the world revolves…"

The two old-looking Fire Phoenix Clan's Ancestors advised him.

They had heard that the Starlight Jade Wolf King had reached the Immortal Emperor Beast Stage, but now that they were face to face with him, they could sense his vast, majestic aura. However, it still didn't affect them as he was not stronger than them, but when looking at the Ethereal Soulcleaver, they had to change their minds.

They could sense a sharp light aura from it, knowing that it gave the additional prowess to battle them.

"Seems like you people don't change no matter how many chances you are given. My brother's magnanimity is wasted on people like you."

The Starlight Jade Wolf King took a step forward, his figure dashing towards them as he raised the Ethereal Soulcleaver with both hands. His figure became covered by a jade light as she shot towards them with incredible speed, exiting the city as the barrier opened.

*Bzzzz!~*

The moment the Starlight Jade Wolf King made a move, the Fire Phoenix Clan's Ancestors also raised their hands. Oppressive undulations emerged from them as they tried to slow the Starlight Jade Wolf King while scarlet flames spawned like the waves from the sea as they turned into a tsunami, trying to engulf the Starlight Jade Wolf King in it.

"Die for the Third Ancestor Riyard!"

The First Ancestor and the Second Ancestor also made a move. Their cultivations were also at Level Six Immortal Emperor Stage, their undulations blaring as jade light emerged from their bodies. It shot towards the Fire Phoenix Clan's two Ancestors like a ray of light, seeking to pierce through the giant flaming scarlet wave.

The moment the jade light touched the flames, clashing with intensity, a luminary explosive burst occurred. It looked like a combination of scarlet and jade light mixed together, creating a massive force that rapidly pushed away all the scarlet flames around it, creating a few holes to punch through.

However, the Starlight Jade Wolf King didn't take any detours.

He went straight ahead, swinging the Ethereal Soulcleaver calmly. The sword's force swept through the air, releasing a trail of shimmering jade light that cleaved the scarlet tsunami into two.

"…!"

Although the two Ancestors knew that this would happen, they were shocked to see that the Ethereal Soulcleaver was so powerful.

*Whoosh!~*

They quickly retreated in two different directions, causing the Starlight Jade Wolf King to chase after one of them without missing a beat. Because of the light attribute, Patriarch Fenren Jadelight's speed was also breakneck, cracking the space beneath his feet with each step he took forward.

"Haaah!"

He lifted the Ethereal Soulcleaver and swung it upon the opponent he chose to chase with extreme force, causing the latter to instantly create a thick and strong winged barrier that enclosed himself into a scarlet sphere.

*Boom!~*

The Ethereal Soulcleaver directly smashed into it. The impact sent shockwaves of Late Stage Immortal Emperor undulations rippling throughout the surroundings, causing layers of space to crack again and again.

Surrounding the location of impact, as many as seven layers of space were broken.

Unfortunately, the unfortunate victim of this strike didn't seem to be able to regain balance as the scarlet barrier was still covered in a tempest of jade-hued brilliance, thousand of jade needles seeking to destroy the barrier.

The Starlight Jade Wolf King was about to continue attacking without a stop. However, he sensed an attack incoming from the other side.

*Booom!~*

The air sizzled as a massive luminary explosion erupted to his side.

The Starlight Jade Wolf King saw his two Ancestors backing him up before he nodded at them and plunged into the ground.

The second opponent, caught off guard by the Starlight Jade Wolf Clan's Ancestors, was unable to make a move to aid his fellow Ancestor.

"Hmph!" Nonetheless, he harrumphed and began exchanging blows with the two of them.

Surprisingly, he was able to fare better against both of them.

"Aha! Seems like the fact that the Starlight Jade Wolf Clan regressed over the years is entirely true." He mocked.

The First and Second Ancestors' expressions flickered, but they didn't seem to be provoked and kept him locked between their strikes. Scarlet flames and crimson light clashed every second, causing shockwaves to emerge as they hit the city's barrier, causing deep fear to emerge on the face of the onlookers.

"…"

Davis also witnessed this battle with a heavy heart.

This battle was something that he should participate in, yet it was being fought for him. The Starlight Jade Wolf King's prowess had only reached Level Five Immortal Emperor Stage, but because he held the Ethereal Soulcleaver, his prowess had reached Level Eight Immortal Emperor Stage.

However, there was a limit to how long he could last with his energy.

"Don't worry. The Legacy Armament made from my first immortal beast companion isn't something the likes of those two Ancestors can break."

Renfa Jadelight appeared at the other edge of the platform, her lips continuing to move, "Besides, isn't that the man you acknowledged as your brother? Have some faith."

"…"

Davis didn't know how to reply to this woman who was in love. However, just as he turned his head, he saw his pupils dilate as the Starlight Jade Wolf King's body shone brightly, causing him to understand that he was sacrificing his blood essence.

Without delaying a second, the Starlight Jade Wolf King seamlessly transitioned into a luminous emerald meteor and smashed into his opponent's sphere, unleashing a devastating strike that split apart the earth and the waterways, even causing space to split past the nine layers and breaking the tenth and eleventh.

The Fire Phoenix Clan's Ancestor barely had time to react over the flurry of sword strikes. His defenses shattered, and his body scattered amidst the ethereal jade glow.

Even his screams could be heard under the blaring explosion of the space tearing and earth splitting.

"…"

Davis was dumbfounded as he watched the dust settle.

The Starlight Jade Wolf King stood amidst the aftermath, his chest heaving with exertion as he remained clutching the Ethereal Soulcleaver tightly in his grasp.

The powerful Fire Phoenix Clan Ancestor's body lay in pieces, unmistakable marks of the Ethereal Soulcleaver's devastating power having almost completely destroyed his body.
