Divine Emperor of Death

As Davis concentrated on absorbing and digesting the third blood essence of the Blazing Thunderlight Kirin, he regularly felt an overwhelming feeling that his Essence Gathering Cultivation would have a breakthrough at any moment if he didn't consciously suppress it.

Having the blood essence alone helped him induce an anchor that wouldn't fade his foundation in Essence Gathering Cultivation but helped it, letting him have a breakthrough without encountering any problems. Besides, his foundation was already Perfect, with the Firestorm World Ode having no flaws. The foundation would only drop depending on the damage done to his meridians and dantian. However, his foundation became more Perfect with the blood essence boosting him with kirin's flames and lightning.

But still, he hadn't re-molded his Fire and Lightning Law Seas, which he was going to do next with the energy derived from the drops of blood essences that he suppressed from causing him to breakthrough, ready to be used for this purpose.

Time passed.

"Ha…"

Suddenly, a yawn could be heard, prompting Davis to stop digesting the third drop of blood essence before he turned to look at Eldia waking up, her figure looking accentuated and glossy under the light of the burning fire, making her appear admiringly gorgeous.

He looked at the fire burning beside and smiled with derision.

It was none other than the Blazing Thunderlight Kirin's Firestorm World Ode Manual.

Davis found the Immortal Grade Firestorm World Ode Manual hidden underneath the blood essence vials. He didn't notice it at first because he wasn't looking for it but later noticed a small compartment between the three vials. However, the manual was trash as Davis found that it was an individual copy and had been tampered upon, which largely told him that the inheritor of this tomb most likely didn't have good intentions to their successor.

Usually, people wouldn't be able to notice if they did not possess the original. He, who possessed it straight from the fickle or carefree Blazing Thunderlight Kirin Immortal, was able to differentiate it without a problem.

Davis couldn't believe how devious this immortal inheritor was, but he had enough as killing intent kept forming against this person. As evidence suggested, this person had gone to extreme lengths to control their inheritor, making him willing to ruin this person's life upon meeting as it just so happens to be him.

This also reminded him of the responsibilities the immortals asked of his wives to fulfill when they inherited the inheritances.

No matter what lies ahead, if he didn't like it, he was going to break the promises his wives made to the immortals, unreasonably if needed so.

"Master, I'm ready."

Eldia floated beside him, causing him to stand as he floated with her.

The Prismatic Intramural Soul-Spirit Pact required the ability to trust foremost, which many spirits lacked when it came to humans. Even Iesha and Nightveil had no choice but to trust him initially as he metaphorically had them by the throat, which then later slowly caused them to trust him after seeing his actions and character, although he wasn't sure about Nightveil as it could've just been an act.

Nevertheless, he started forming the soul-spirit pact with Eldia as he held her hands like Natalya and Iesha had formed.

The technique that was cast by both of them went smoothly without a hitch and ended up forming a vast connection in their souls.

Instantly, their level of connection reached the advanced level, the second level! Unlike them, even Natalya and Iesha had only reached the basic level, the first level. Therefore, it instantly made him understand the kind of trust Eldia had in him that spoke volumes. However…

'The fact that it didn't reach the third level means that I don't trust Eldia enough to leave my back to her…?'

Davis couldn't understand. He had relied on Eldia so many times to protect his family.

Could it be her fault? That she did not trust him enough to leave her back to him?

'No, Eldia had always been accompanied by Evelynn or Nadia in defense… so it could be said that I'm the one who doesn't trust her completely to have my or my family's back, perhaps because she's weaker than me...'

Davis introspected and felt like he understood. Meanwhile, Eldia was purely happy as she revealed a joyful smile on her face, feeling wonderful. Never had she felt so protective of anything that she felt that she had to have this connection with him always, no matter what.

"Oh, there's two people here…" Her eyes went wide as she suddenly noticed.

"That's Evelynn and Nadia…"

Davis pointed at the formless connection he had with Evelynn's third eye and Nadia's shelter in his soul sea. Nadia wasn't with him, but Evelynn certainly did see through his eyes occasionally, checking on him, like every ten minutes.

*Bzzzz!~*

Black lightning began to crackle in a minute arc as they swirled around her. However, it was tinged with a white tint, appearing different from her usual extinction lightning.

Eldia instantly made a breakthrough in her Body Cultivation, entering Mid-Level First Stage. Clearly, it was because of the soul-spirit pact she formed with Davis, allowing her to rapidly increase her Body Cultivation!

However…

"Woah, your Body Cultivation exudes the aura of the heavenly tribulation lightning more than your other cultivation system..." Davis looked astonished as he spoke.

"…"

On the other hand, Eldia remained dumbfounded, witnessing the effects of the Prismatic Intramural Soul-Spirit Pact firsthand as soon as it formed, but it caused Davis to nod in understanding.

"No wonder your hair is white and silvery like Iesha's when it should be in all right, pure black, indicative of your extinction lightning like I've seen in all other spirits. It seems like your body is affected the most, re-molded by heavenly lightning."

If Eldia's lightning could be divided into ratios, he would say that her Essence and Spirit Cultivation possessed a ratio of 8:2 with extinction lightning and heavenly lightning. On the other hand, her Body Cultivation was 5:5 with the two types of lightning!

Davis heaved a sigh of relief, smiling at Eldia. Fortunately, the transformation that was aided by refined heavenly lightning didn't seem to have affected her body negatively and perhaps, only affected her outer appearance, but it couldn't be said to be negative as he was totally smitten with her looks!

She was just like the purple-skinned Evelynn that was intimate with in the woods, having him recall that wonderful experience that he had no way to regain but now did in the form of Eldia. However, Eldia was a companion spirit and not his woman, which made him suppress the thought whenever it arose. Besides, she vaguely appeared just like an innocent little child in his eyes despite her mature appearance, looking so happy to be born with flesh.

How could he bear to touch her that way?

"Eldia, you can now cultivate both your cultivation systems at a faster rate and quickly catch up, although I muse that it would take a longer time for you to increase your Body Cultivation as it is new. Here…"

Davis gave her a Peak-Level Emperor Grade Spatial Ring, her very own one to bound. Eldia still looked happy as she bound it. However, she was astonished to find many vials in it.

"Yes, those are Million Emerald Vines Calamity Nectar vials, which will help you vastly improve your Body Cultivation."

"Thank you so much, master!"

Eldia nodded her head so happily while Davis couldn't help but chuckle as he closed his eyes, knowing that Eldia was a gluttonous Spirit Attribute Source who dared to go out of her way to ask for the first strand of heavenly lightning he possessed despite understanding the consequences if he denied it.

Her innocent and joyful expression was just too bright for him.

"…!?"

However, he suddenly froze as he felt a warm and tingling sensation on his lips. It caused him to open his eyes wide, looking at Eldia, who kissed him while having her arms wrapped around his shoulders. The feeling of her big breasts squishing against his chest was very real, and with her voluptuous body wrapped around him, it made him flinch in shock!

Davis quickly pushed Eldia away as his hand touched her shoulders, causing her to stumble back a few steps in the air.

"Eldia, what are you doing!?"
