Divine Emperor of Death
chapter-3800

Davis raised his hand and rubbed his forehead with his finger, slowly looking around.

There wasn't anyone else other than Tanya, Sophie, Ellia, Dalila, Tia, Bylai, Zestria, Yilla, Natalya, and Niera. They were the recipients of the Gilded Realm Ascendant Pills.

Tanya and Sophie were the recipients of Lower Realm Pills, including Stella, who had already completed absorbing it due to her being a Void Dust Tree. The others possessed Minor Realm Pills, currently absorbing them to improve themselves.

He couldn't see anyone else, so he guessed the pills that were split from the sixth Gilded Realm Ascendant Pill were still with Tina.

"Have you given some thought to who to give them to?"

"Yes~"

Tina answered, causing Davis to nod.

"Well, you didn't want others to be sad, but you might end up creating resentment for yourself from others if you don't choose them. Say who they are and give the pills to me. I'll give it to them."

Davis reached out his hand, "Or if you want to give it to them yourself, go ahead."

"No, I'll rely on your offer."

Tina hurriedly passed on the pills to him with an expression full of relief.

They wouldn't dare hold resentment towards him, but as for others, they were free to give the side eye. Although there were no such incidents, she didn't want to be the first to start one, as he said.

Davis almost rolled his eyes. Sometimes, he felt like they were overcautious, but it could be said he reacted to danger in similar ways by bringing in almost all the possibilities he could think of that could endanger them. In the same way, they were also afraid of their sisters secretly holding resentment against them and wanted to remove all, if not most, possibilities if possible.

Still, he couldn't understand it wasn't like it brought any danger to their position, so he guessed it likely had to do with their kindness, and Tina had always been a gentle woman who shared everything she got as though she had no limits.

Otherwise, she wouldn't be cooped up in alchemy chambers and keep making pills for everyone.

"Please give them to Nadia, Everlight, Lea, and Mingzhi. I presume for the amount of work they do, they deserve more, especially Lea and Mingzhi, who even went as far as to reject the pill."

"Yes, I bet they secretly regret it… but fortunately, they will be delighted because of you. I will be sure to secretly tell them you offered them."

Davis patted Tina's head, causing her to smile sexily.

She wanted to avoid resentment, but for goodwill, she wanted them as much as she could endure as she loved basking in it.

"Now that you mention it…"

Davis furrowed his brows before he turned to look at Zenova Artoria.

"Did you happen to have a Gilded Ascendant Realm Pill of Minor Realm that you can sell?"

"Maybe or maybe not…"

Zenova Artoria narrowed her brows, "Were you hoping to obtain that if I lose somehow?"

"Of course not."

Davis waved his hand, "As I said, this battle is without any strings attached. As long as you can defeat me, the Ruinbloom Cataclysmic Pear is yours."

He declared with a confident voice as though he wouldn't go back on his words.

However, Zenova Artoria saw that as confidence in his ability to defeat her.

She couldn't understand if he really knew what he was talking about. But considering how Evelynn wasn't panicking, she understood he had something up his sleeves.

'Could this space possibly have the effect of strengthening him…?'

She wondered before opening her mouth.

"I do have two Gilded Ascendant Realm Pills with me."

"Two!?"

Davis looked at her in shock, causing Zenova Artoria to giggle. She found his reaction amusing after being the master of more than ten pills, as far as she could see around here since she could feel the undulations of the pill essence.

Just how greedy was he?

"Yes. What is your offer? I might sell one if the price is right."

"How about you give us those two pills, and we'll dilute them into eight to ten pills, of which forty percent belongs to us, and the rest is yours."

"Diluting those two sacred pills feels like blasphemy to me."

Zenova Artoria frowned, "Besides, not everyone is trying to split the benefits with their favorite spouse, much less all spouses like you. Are you crazy?"

She may have sounded at him, but her gaze fell on Evelynn, Shirley, and Isabella.

They merely smiled, refusing to elaborate.

Davis raised his hand, "As you know, this is quite normal in the Davis Family. I'm sorry for being stupid and naive. Now, will you sell or not? If you don't trust me, then Myria will uphold the deal for you. You know she is a person of integrity, right?"

He gestured at Myria.

"No, your words are trustable." Zenova Artoria lightly waved her hand, but her brows frowned," It's just that— when I see you take actions like this, it disappoints me. Don't make me think I don't have eyes."

"…"

Davis looked amused. He appeared like he wanted to say something but gestured.

"Fine, I'll try to meet your expectations. As a first step, why don't you try defeating me and see for yourself how good your eyes are?"

He shot a smirk before leaving towards the distance.

"Arrogant…"

Zenova Artoria also smirked and followed him. If she was defeated, her eyes were good despite her being weak? If she won, then she was strong rather than her eyes being perceptive? She couldn't help but scoff at his arrogance, which seemed to have reached the apex. However, she also contradictorily loved it as she felt that a man she had acknowledged should be like that.

The rest followed behind. The ones who were cultivating also summoned their soul bodies to follow.

How could they miss such a peak battle?

They followed them but were suddenly transported three hundred million kilometers away by Stella.

With this, their cultivation wouldn't be affected by the battle. Even their positions were decided as Davis and Zenova Artoria were placed a hundred kilometers between each other while they were all at a distance of a thousand kilometers with an invisible spatial barrier protecting them.

Seeing Stella being thorough, they were proud. They felt she had grown, but more than that, they knew she was also excited to see this battle.

It was their man battling, after all.

Davis looked at Zenova Artoria in the distance. He could feel the immense pressure from the surroundings, even though there were only a few members. Honestly, he didn't know where Zenova Artoria's prowess lay at the end, but as she said, he was confident in his cultivation, perhaps arrogantly so.

"Are you ready?"

He signaled with a raised hand, pointing his index finger at her.

"Long before you were born~"

The moment Zenova Artoria's melodious and seductive voice fell, a flash of silver light encompassed the area as a bolt of crimson-silver lightning traversed the hundred-kilometer range in a matter of milliseconds and struck Zenova Artoria.

*Bang!~*

A resonant boom reverberated across the vast void dust space, causing a shockwave to spread from Zenova Artoria's location as the void dust on the surface flew up like dust, their forms shifting and undulating before quickly disappearing within space as though dissolved by space itself.

A rolling mass of annihilative heavenly lightning sparkled around Zenova Artoria, slowly revealing her figure, which was absolutely unharmed.

"How marvelous~"

Zenova Artoria's voice echoed, her undulations brimming at the Peak Immortal King Stage, and she seemed to have suppressed her cultivation. Her Level Nine Immortal King undulations made the rolling arcs of crimson-silver lightning fade quickly.

Yilla and the others' gaze flickered.

It had been obvious to them that Zenova Artoria was very strong, but to see her take an attack that was eleven levels higher head-on without a single hint of defensive measure and remain absolutely unharmed, they had to nod their heads in admittance of her power.

However, what's more surprising was that Davis managed to increase his Essence Gathering Cultivation base's prowess by one, reaching eleven levels higher in terms of base prowess.

"Looks like comprehending Wind Laws to Level Three Quiddity through the comprehensive essence of the Celestial Luminescence Pill has completely harmonized his powers…"

Myria commented and inwardly thought it also had to do with dual cultivation with Fiora, but more importantly, his constant encounter with Annihilative Heavenly Tribulations was also a factor. Without them, the Celestial Luminescence Pill could've never made him understand the essence of heavenly annihilation.

After all, such a comprehensive property wouldn't be in the Celestial Luminescence Pill since heavenly properties are more or less karmic-burdened and would eventually disappear, refusing to stay within the essence of the Ethereal Lumina Tree's Fruit.

Consequently, the annihilative property in his comprehension had probably reached the peak as far as she could tell, allowing his base prowess to increase from ten to eleven levels higher.

That was indeed marvelous, a piece of good news for all of them as it meant his Essence Gathering Cultivation was also growing.

'His Tempestuous Firestorm Obliteration Physique had just taken shape and has tremendous room to grow…' Myria thought.

He hadn't even mastered Obliteration Laws yet, which would significantly boost his physique's prowess, so she could only imagine his bright future in Essence Gathering Cultivation.

Myria touched her cheek, feeling it becoming warm over feeling proud. However, her gaze flickered, making her wonder if she was proud of her man or her... son?

Her cheeks reddened more, blaming him for reminding her recently. She wanted to forget that such a thing ever happened.
