Divine Emperor of Death



Davis slowly took a step forward, moving in a straight line towards Grand Elder Seil Zenflame, who shuddered.

"Don't release the flaming walls. His attacks may be powerful, but he's still an Immortal King whose body shouldn't be able to withstand multiple impacts from our attacks even if he is able to successfully defend. Don't let him escape even if it's your end."

Grand Elder Seil Zenflame and the other Grand Elders received soul transmissions from the Ancestors.

Their expressions appeared to be stifled as they clenched their teeth, wondering why they should stay here if the Ancestors were going to sacrifice themselves anyway. It wasn't their duty to sacrifice their lives for the clan yet, at least until they became withered existences who lost most of their blood essence and didn't have much of a future to look forward to.

They were Grand Elders, the powerful ones at that. They could still reach Level Nine Immortal Emperor Stage and someday ascend as they were still full of vitality and hadn't even wasted their rebirth. Yet, they were to stay here where the Emperor of Death could merely raise his hand and cause them to die? In fact, even if the Emperor of Death didn't deign to do anything to them out of some miracle, the powerful Ancestors could also roast them alive if they got caught in the crossfire.

Even their defensive talismans wouldn't help if Level Eight Immortal Emperor Stage attacks fell on them.

As they suddenly regretted their decision to come here despite all that had happened, one of the Ancestors suddenly blocked Davis's path.

lightsnοvεl "You don't need to be a calamity anymore."

Davis's eyes closed and opened ever so lightly as he saw this Ancestor who had not spoken a single word, unlike the other Ancestors. He merely uttered in a gentle voice as though he understood his actions but disagreed with his entire soul and wanted him to rest in peace before he could cause more calamities to occur.

"You're being polite." Davis smiled ever so lightly in response.

The next moment, the Level Seven Immortal Emperor exploded right in front of him, engulfing thousands of kilometers of space with scarlet flames. The air sizzled into purgatory, and many layers of space simply evaporated, leaving a bit of strong spatial layers intact whereafter it would be the unknown void.

Nonetheless, the explosion didn't end in the center.

The fiery scarlet shockwave spread to the ends of the fiery walls and churned within, making the space inside grow even hotter and tumultuous.

If the energy barrier of their Ancestors didn't protect the Grand Elders, the Grand Elders would've turned to cinders by now.

Outside, the people of the Fire Phoenix Clan and even a vast number of onlookers from many powers saw this scene with their hearts pounding.

The incredible undulations and the size of the destruction within the scarlet flame wall could only mean that an Ancestor had sacrificed his life. The skies above the flaming sea were thunderous and stormy. They knew that one of their Ancestors chose to self-destruct to take down the calamitous Emperor of Death who managed to push them this far, causing the denizens of the Fire Phoenix Clan to shed tears in sadness as they imagined that they lost a guardian today.

But inside, the situation was as tense as ever.

Soon, the sea of scarlet flames weaving inside receded.

Grand Elder Seil Zenflame kept his arms in front of his face and bore the brunt of the heat behind the barrier, knowing not even a Level Seven Immortal Emperor would come out of this unscathed. For an Immortal King to come out unscathed would be unlikely, but his heart didn't calm at all.

"…!"

And just as his fears predicted, a pitch-black silhouette appeared in his view in the skies.

'Bastard… he survived… with that technique he used before…'

Davis wore a black cloak over his purple robe. Like his scythe, it was also a manifestation, but it was not a simple solidification of energy, but the manifestation of a complex Divine Technique!

"The Ghost Tear Hall's Divine Technique, Deathward Seacloak Dominion."lightsnovel

An Ancestor slowly spoke in awe, causing Davis to turn to look at him when another Ancestor spoke.

"We've already seen that as one of our Ancestors fell prey to this attack of yours when protecting Killian Zenflame. Now, you cannot use it again anymore."

"…"

Davis didn't say anything in response, but indeed, he did kill that Ancestor with the Deathward Seacloak Dominion Divine Technique.

It was a technique used for absolute defense where the energy of an attack is pulled into a deathly abyss where every form of energy is extinguished, ceasing to exist as they dissipate, never to see the light again. However, this wasn't only the case for energy, as physical entities could also be pulled in and extinguished, able to be used for offensive attacks.

Still, it was mainly a defensive technique that devoured every kind of attack thrown at him, and the consumption would leave him exhausted depending on the strength of the attack. However, with Fallen Heaven's energy aiding him, he didn't feel much energy was wasted, just like before.

"However, that Ancestor had already wasted ninety-two percent of his blood essence and was barely alive. He would be the first to go out among us since his cultivation also fell with his blood essence shrinking to that level, so we weren't disheartened when we heard you killed him, but regardless, his death wasn't in vain along with Fourth Ancestor's death who sacrificed himself just now." The last remaining Ancestor added.

Davis also cast a gaze at him. This ancestor seemed to be a magical beast, while the other two were humans.

Right now, there were only three Ancestors and seven Grand Elders, and the Ancestors seemed decisive enough to kill him, so he guessed they wouldn't try to escape, causing him to revert his gaze to Grand Elder Seil Zenflame.

He raised his hand towards him.

"No!"

Grand Elder Seil Zenflame felt his scalp turn numb.

*Crack!~* *Crack!~* *Crack!~*

He shattered and activated every defensive talisman in his arsenal, creating a barrier of nirvanic flames, a soul barrier with karmic defense, and a few other barriers with various properties designed to specifically counter certain elements.

At the same time, two Level Seven Immortal Emperor Stage Ancestors shot toward Davis.

Davis removed his black cloak and threw it toward one of the Ancestors, causing the latter to stop in his tracks in an attempt to evade the cloak, as they knew what it could do.

If he got caught in it, then he wouldn't be able to extricate himself from its absorption, which leads to death.

As for the other Ancestor, he was upon Davis, his old face appearing to be extremely solemn.

Having burned his entire blood essence and pouring them all into his essence energy, he extended his arms like they were wings and sucked in a deep breath full of scarlet flames, his energy expanding behind him into the brilliant scarlet wings of a phoenix.

"Inferno Celestial Phoenix Blaze~"

The Ancestor unleashed a Divine Technique of the Fire Phoenix Clan, causing tempestuous gusts of scorching wind filled with nirvanic phoenix flames to barrage the Emperor of Death.

Davis had just finished throwing the black cloak on the other Ancestor when he was abruptly bombarded and engulfed within the scorching purgatory. With each wave of nirvanic flame gust, the smoldering wisps soared into the air, burning the space along with it.
