Divine Emperor of Death

Chapter 2959 Reverse Card

*Rippp!~*

As the scythe fell on Patriarch Killian Zenflame, almost beheading him, a resplendent scarlet glow tried to overwhelm Davis, causing him to feel a great pull that felt like he was going to be severed if he resisted.

'Now!'

However, he abruptly disappeared from the location, leaving behind a soul body in his place as the soul body abruptly kicked something out of the way. It wasn't even milliseconds before his soul body disappeared amidst the scarlet glow, and it extended even more to cover the something that had been sent flying with a kick.

However, the scarlet glow was unable to absorb that object before the light faded away, causing the Nine-Phoenix Locking Relic to float in mid-air with no one to take hold of it.

The Starlight Jade Wolf King watched this scene in shock, his apprehension second only to the scene of losing his Ancestor in this battle. The sea of scarlet flames released by the powerful talisman in between only served to widen the gap, causing him to be unable to make it there.

But the next moment, he saw a tiny floating palace beside the Nine-Phoenix Locking Relic, causing his eyes to widen.

'Could that be…'

Just as he wondered what was going on, inside that floating palace, Davis revealed a victorious smile.

'I was right! The sealing artifact is incapable of sealing this inheritance palace!'

He couldn't believe the prowess of the Nine-Treasure Immortal Ordeal Palace. He thought it was a Peak Immortal King Grade Palace, but he stood corrected. It was still a Peak Immortal King Grade Palace but its defensive layers in the very middle were made up of Immortal Emperor Grade ores, some unknown kind that seemed to be capable of transforming states into liquid from metal when refined and used.

Therefore, the moment he activated the true defenses of the Nine-Treasure Immortal Ordeal Palace using High-Level Immortal Crystals, the seemingly liquid metal interior turned into hard metal, leaving any form of attack or pull that could act on it and break its initial defenses useless.

"This is a special palace intended to aid the path of someone special. It won't get easily destroyed by Immortal Emperor Grade attacks at the very least, much less pulled into a space when you don't allow it."

A pink-robed woman descended on a dragon cloud, causing Davis to blink.

"Lereza, do you understand that you would die with me if I made the wrong move?"

"Ridiculous. I'm this palace's spirit. I was meant to be together with the master of this palace even in death, even if it's someone as naughty as you."

Lereza condescendingly smirked as though looking down on him, causing Davis to laugh before he shook his head, his gaze changing ever so lightly as he saw what his soul body was witnessing. Needless provocations fell in his senses, causing him to sigh and hurriedly investigate the artifact.

'I see. Although this artifact seals the individual inside, it is not capable of sealing senses…. Which means that it doesn't teleport one to a different space upon absorption. It's the pocket space of the artifact itself, capable of-'

*Whoosh!~*

Abruptly, the Nine-Phoenix Locking Relic flew away, causing Davis's eyes to widen at it in shock before he hurriedly teleported himself out and chased the fleeing Nine-Phoenix Locking Relic!

He had tried to maintain distance and not get himself caught up in the Nine-Phoenix Locking Relic's absorption, as it was extremely dangerous. However, it seems like he would not be able to hold himself back.

*Bang!~*

The Nine-Phoenix Locking Relic easily broke the barrier of the sealing formation he had set up without even struggling, continuing to move forwards.

But at this moment, it suddenly came to a stop, seemingly shuddering as though it was going to release a glow of scarlet light.

The other Ancestors also watched in shock, not daring to near it.

At the same time, Davis appeared before the Nine-Phoenix Locking Relic and grasped it with his bare hand, no longer giving a fuck about being sealed as he directly absorbed it into his Nine-Treasured Immortal Ordeal Palace.

*Whoosh!~*

The Nine-Phoenix Locking Relic disappeared, appearing inside the palace.

But just as it started moving again, intending to crash into the wall, Davis tried to restrict it with formations.

*Bang!~* *Bang!~* *Bang!~*

But it was of no use! It rammed through barriers and even through the walls like tofu, appearing to be on the verge of breaking out!

*Boom!~*

However, it finally struck a layer of the walls that seemed unable to be broken by the Nine-Phoenix Locking Relic's pure physical might. It was the unique wall of Immortal Emperor Grade Metal located in the middle, seemingly impervious to the overwhelming physical might of the Nine-Phoenix Locking Relic!

"Aha! Success!"

Davis roared.

Lereza also appeared beside him, her presence instantly causing everyone to freeze, even the ones who tried to make a move on the Emperor of Death.

Seeing the Nine-Phoenix Locking Relic still rampaging, Davis knew his Nine-Treasured Immortal Ordeal Palace could be destroyed, but he didn't care. Not only was it empty, but all the treasures were in Lereza's spatial ring. No matter what price he had to pay, he was prepared to bring down Patriarch Killian Zenflame, the reason for all this mess, even if he had to use Fallen Heaven.

That was how incensed he was, especially after hearing all the garbage that came out of his mouth.

Nonetheless, he turned to look towards the source that actually stopped the Nine-Phoenix Locking Relic from fleeing, witnessing Hirona and Sierra radiating an immense phoenix aura. Blood was leaking out of their lips, making him understand that these two worked in tandem to stop the Nine-Phoenix Locking Relic from leaving by using their blood essence.

Had they called out to the artifact spirit? But why? Why were these two helping him?

If they hadn't called out to the Nine-Phoenix Locking Relic, perhaps, he might have never caught up to it. It was too fast, being capable of traversing within the void if it could smash through walls like that.

Davis gazed at them with a complicated look before his gaze fell on Great Ancestor Zenflame, whose lips moved, telling him to flee.

"Didn't I tell you all to leave, or else you are all my enemies when the barrier breaks?"

However, Davis spoke with suppressed fury as though he was a volcano about to explode, causing the Ancestors from the other powers to turn deeply wary of him as they slowly retreated, each of them taking out a treasure to either protect themselves or deal with him.

"Before I turn and see your faces, I'll give you all one last chance. Scram!"

Davis roared.

It caused the expressions of numerous Ancestors to shudder greatly. Even that one strange female Ancestor and Cyan Soul Rat Clan's Ancestor were no different.

After seeing what had happened to the Fire Phoenix Clan's Ancestors, they had this bad premonition that they couldn't stop their minds from imagining it.

It was unknown what happened in the next second, but when Davis turned to look, he only saw the Light Dragon Clan's Ancestor head plunging to the surface. Casting a look above, he saw Venerable Warrior Zermatt descend with a sword in his hands, his body appearing crystalline as though he was a diamond.

"Did the Light Dragon Clan's Ancestor die?"

"No, he's one lively old man. He escaped with his soul, but I pierced his immortal vessel. With that, he's going to die sooner or later…"

Venerable Warrior Zermatt responded to Davis's question before he raised his sword that shone like a diamond.

"Now, obediently bow and reach out your neck. I promise to make your death painless."
