Divine Emperor of Death



Silence reigned amidst the tense atmosphere outside the hidden temple.

The young heavenly geniuses of the true immortal world couldn't fathom how strong this immortal was as they hadn't heard of any such genius even in the Abandoned Immortal Lower Realm, not that they would know as it was sealed off for the most part in order to preserve the Immortal Cultivation method.

Still, it was somewhat fine as they would hear top immortal geniuses compare to Kingly Monarchs, but to be able to capture an attack like that and break it, causing its entire essence to shatter without receiving any damage whatsoever, even Empyreal Monarchs were not capable of that feat.

They were horrified over what kind of level this person's body cultivation had reached.

As far as they knew, only an Empyreal Monarch from the Azure Dragon Upper Realm would be capable of this feat, and even a Kingly Monarch from the Azure Dragon Upper Realm could thrash this successor to the Rapturous Throne Lower Realm into submission.

That's how powerful they were, but this purple-robed man seemed as strong as them!

"Greetings, Immortal."

Suddenly, an orange-robed man with red fiery patterns stepped up to the front. He aligned himself in front of everyone boldly, and not a single one of them batted their eye. In fact, they gazed at him as though he could diffuse the situation.

"We have heard that you have come from an ancient and mythical land that had once shaken us to the core. Perhaps it is the same today, but we youngsters have little to no idea how majestic and honorable your world is. I am well aware of how badly we have treated your people, so if you may find it in your heart to excuse us, I would appreciate it. After all, we're displaying the same amount of hostility to other Transcendents if we think we have the opportunity to slaughter them all to enrich ourselves."

"…"

Davis's jaws almost dropped.

There was finally someone who could engage in a dialogue instead of just attacking? He almost mistook the other party for a monk.

However, considering he had proved himself to be a foe that they couldn't offend even after thinking twice, he didn't feel any good impression of them.

"So you're saying that it's okay to bully the weak as long as we know we can bully them endlessly?" Davis asked with an amused expression.

"Respected immortal, don't put words into my mouth."

The fiery-orange-robed man still smiled, "I said that we bully them endlessly as long as it means our growth. However, I still don't condone such behavior, so my Astral Pill Upper Realm has decided to give asylum to the immortals from the First Haven World. In the northern direction, a few million kilometers away, there's our temporary base where we are safeguarding the immortals who have decided not to engage in any kind of slaughter and treasure hunting."

Davis raised his brows.

There was such a thing?

He didn't know if the other party was telling the truth or not from his emotions as he didn't have his Heart Intent active in front of all these geniuses. Still, if it was true, then he felt like his impression of the disciples from the Astral Pill Upper Realm slightly improved.

However, being cautious was his nature, and it would occasionally push him into being overcautious.

"What's the point of giving asylum to the cultivators of the First Haven World when it is said that the Astral Forgeheart Minor Realm is going to collapse and take everyone except a few along with it?"

"That is what my Upper Realm and the Forgeheart Peak Upper Realm have spread together, but I don't believe such things as my realm always stood for righteousness. Even though the Forgeheart Peak Upper Realm is also involved in hosting this deadly competition, I still believe that when the realm is almost on the brink of collapse, our seniors would appear to evacuate us."

"…"

Davis was speechless.

'What the… if your seniors could appear, I imagine that they would've appeared by now considering the trouble I caused, inviting annihilative tribulations and whatnot…'

Davis imagined that there was no way they would let a calamitous being like him remain in this calamitous world that could collapse anytime. After all, what these seniors were banking on for the realm concoction was the karmic luck of all these geniuses.

Remembering all this once again made him remember his blunder of letting the Apocalyptic Flame Essence face its tribulation, causing his kill switch to almost flip.

Nonetheless, he suppressed his anger but suddenly noticed a few figures pop out around the hidden temple.

'They're teleported out…?'

He narrowed his eyes at them, wondering what kind of mechanisms were in the hidden temple obstructing these heavenly geniuses from getting to the Celestial Luminescence Pill, but returned his gaze to the disciple of the Astral Pill Upper realm.

"A positive mind is exemplary, but I'm sure the others don't agree with you as they have hunted and tortured the cultivators from the First Haven World. Isn't that right, Stormsong Family?"

"…"

The four disciples of the Stormsong Family froze in place as they heard a familiar yet intimidating voice that horrified them to their core.

The Astral Pill Upper Realm's disciples turned to look at them along with the others before he returned his gaze to Davis.

"I haven't heard anything from them, and even if they did do that, then it finally makes sense why they appeared without their Empyreal Monarch. You killed Aric Stormsong, didn't you?"

"…!"

The Transcendents reacted to the Astral Pill Upper Realm's disciple words in utter shock while the silver-robed man flinched again, actually putting even more distance between him and the purple-robed man.

This man killed an Empyreal Monarch? They were stunned as this was a huge thing. After all, not even a single Empyreal Monarch has fallen here till now!

"Oh, he's still alive, although he's constantly begging for his life. Did you geniuses forget to temper your Will, devouring the resources instead like a glutton? That's a sorry scene I didn't expect from an Empyreal Monarch."

"…"

Davis blatantly mocked them Transcendents, but they didn't dare to say anything. The Astral Pill Upper Realm's disciple also appeared a bit shaken as if the man in front of him could really take down an Empyreal Monarch and have him beg, then that meant that he was qualified to even go toe to toe with the Azure Dragon Upper Realm's disciples in terms of strength.
