Chapter 1035 I Am Conten
Two months passed from that time, coming back to the present.
Davis entered seclusion at the start and remained to cultivate in his room on the eighteenth floor till the end of the second month. He successfully increased his Essence Gathering Cultivation by one level, entering the Mid-Level Law Manifestation Stage. Having more than a million Mid-Level Spirit Stones to spare, he did not even bother to count how many he used.
Even though it looked like he was wasting it, he was not as it required an enormous amount of energy for him to a breakthrough than it was needed for the norm.
On average, cultivators at Low-Level Law Manifestation Stage would need around 1,000 Mid-Level Spirit Stones to reach the threshold required to breakthrough to the Mid-Level Law Manifestation Stage.
Mid-Level Law Manifestation Stage Cultivators would require around 5,000 Mid-Level Spirit Stones to enter High-Level Law Manifestation Stage, and the latter would require around 10,000 Mid-Level Spirit Stones to enter Peak-Level Law Manifestation Stage!
However, Davis needed fifteen times the energy! He siphoned off the energy of 15,000 Mid-Level Spirit Stones like it was nothing! And its amount was more than what it was required to reach the Peak-Level Law Manifestation Stage. Furthermore, he absorbed all those Spirit Stones with the help of a Peak-Level Sky Grade Energy Gathering Formation that could fully utilize the extracted energy to boot!
So, in reality, the assumption that he could've needed more than fifteen times the energy could stand true!
He bought a Low-Level King Grade Formation for the same amount of Mid-Level Spirit Stones in the Ethren Empire before, but in any case, he had millions of Mid-Level Spirit Stones to spare like a rich upstart, so he didn't care one bit about the loss.
Still, the reason why he wasn't disheartened lay with his previous experiences where he had to spend more Spirit Stones than the norm. That made him resilient to this unbearable spending, and besides, his Essence Gathering Cultivation's prowess was also top-tier that he possessed a Superior Manifestation that let him be unrivaled amongst his current peers!
It couldn't be considered a loss as his cultivation allowed him to skip three levels, giving a frightening battle prowess! He felt all the Spirit Stones he spent ended up being worth it! And he possessed the same confidence that it would be worth this time as well, allowing him to face any peer with superiority!
During this time of seclusion, he discovered that the room to Nora Alstreim was accessed a few times, and when he checked with his Solitary Soul Avatar's soul sense, it ended up being Claire who visited all the time. However, he didn't know what they were conversing as his Solitary Soul Avatar was also in seclusion, naturally cultivating Soul Forging Cultivation while resonating the comprehension with heaven and earth energy.
Nevertheless, with a defensive barrier in place between them, Nora Alstreim wouldn't be able to harm Claire, and before he entered seclusion, he had given the token plate of the sealing formation to Claire.
With it, she would be able to easily curb Nora Alstreim from making any moves against her, although he doubted in the first place if Nora Alstreim would be even able to free herself from the chains made from High-Level King Grade Materials or the seal placed by the inscriptions, which wouldn't fade away for a decade!
Everything was safe in the Purple Guest Palace under his occasional soul sense watch, so he wasn't worried at all.
He exited seclusion, and the first thing he saw at the hall was the sight of two women smiling and laughing as their melodious voices echoed, making the rather dull hall brighten up as if the flowers have bloomed!
They were none other than Evelynn and Princess Isabella.
He approached them from behind and walked in front of them, and when he saw Evelynn holding her stomach, his heart skipped a beat.
However, looking at the small and slim tummy, as well as her expression as if she was just controlling her laughter and becoming shy after seeing him walk towards them, he mused that she didn't get pregnant with his child.
He couldn't help but feel complicated but, at the same time, also feel sorry for Evelynn.
Perhaps, the fault lay with him? But considering how virile he is due to his high vitality as well as the virility of a dragon, he didn't think that way.
If it was not him, then it should be because of Evelynn's capacity to conceive. After all, due to the blood essence of the Earth Dragon, conceiving should be rather difficult for her.
Princess Isabella noticed his expression towards Evelynn and couldn't help but teasingly smile, "I just heard from Evelynn that you tried to get her pregnant?"
Davis became unamused as he felt that it was too insensitive of her but noticing that Evelynn was still lightly smiling, it seemed that she wasn't offended at all.
"Yes, I did... So what?" But he couldn't help but get angry in her stead.
Princess Isabella became taken aback, "What are you getting angry for...?"
She pursed her lips before she slightly shook her head, "You do treat me differently in front of your true wives..."
'Fuck! Today is not a good day!' Davis's expression scrunched up in difficulty.
Why does Princess Isabella misunderstand him? Is this the real face of possessing a harem?
He couldn't help but say with a wry expression on his face, "Come on, Isabella. Didn't you say that Evely-"
"What are you getting all serious for? I am just kidding~" Princess Isabella giggled at him before turning her head to look at Evelynn, who sat by her side on the couch.
"What did I say? Didn't I say that he would be feeling sad that you didn't get pregnant?"
Davis became stunned as he saw Evelynn nod her head as she let out a suppressed breath. It seemed that she was relieved that Davis didn't blame her for not getting pregnant.
"Your worries are unfounded as the reason you have failed to conceive lies within the Earth Dragon's blood essence. The Earth Dragon has even warned me the same. You don't need to feel the responsibility for this matter, Evelynn. Okay?~" Princess Isabella consoled.
Evelynn nodded her head once before she shook her head and raised her head to look at Davis.
"Davis, I am content."
"Content?" Davis's lips twitched.
Was it truly the case?
He could easily stomach that Evelynn didn't get pregnant but could she?
Evelynn explained in a gentle tone, "Before, I couldn't help but think somewhere in my heart what if you really didn't want a child with me but after we did something like that, and even though I failed to conceive, I am convinced!"
"I feel assured waiting, and I will wait until the day till you truly want me to give birth to your child."
"Evelynn..." Davis felt moved.
So that was it...
"Davis, what are you giving her...? What did Evelynn call that? Uh... birth control pills?" Princess Isabella suddenly asked.
Davis froze in response as his moved expression stiffened.
In the entire cultivation world, as far as he could tell, only he used birth control pills. As Princess Isabella questioned him, he couldn't help but feel cold sweat forming over his back!
