Divine Emperor of Death

Davis stored the valuable magical beast corpse and looked at the black-green herb, Evergreen Dusk Herb.

"It's not fully grown, otherwise it would've been even more effective..." Davis let out a dissatisfied sigh as he collected it.

The Evergreen Dusk Herb he collected was one of the main ingredients required to concoct a Soul Emergence Pill.

The Soul Emergence Pill was graded as Peak-Level Sky Grade Pill and was capable of increasing the quality of one's soul force to a certain degree.

The increase in prowess depended on the Soul Forging Cultivation of the person consuming it.

If a person who consumed the Soul Emergence Pill was at Adult Soul Stage, then their soul force would become five times as powerful then their normal counterparts.

Then if a person who is at Elder Soul Stage consumed the pill, their souls will become three times stronger.

So what will happen if a person who is at Mature Soul Stage consumed the pill? Their souls will become around two times stronger than their counterparts.

Davis's soul force was now actually normal like the others who had entered Elder Soul Stage, but because of the advantage he had before when his soul was 5 times stronger at the lower stages, his soul was slightly stronger, which in turn led to the situation of him being able to battle against people who are one level higher than him at the moment.

"Hehe, I found one Ingredient but there are six more to go..." Davis silently mocked himself.

In total, there were seven main ingredients that were required to concoct the Soul Emergence Pill, of which four of them were at Peak-Level Sky Grade while three of them were at High-Level Sky Grade.

Namely, the Evergreen Dusk Herb, Lunar Seed Fruit, Pyro Scalewood Herb, and Enriched Sunflower Grass which were at Peak-Level Sky Grade.

The remaining ingredients were a Sunflower Bamboo Extract, and a Bronze Lightning Fruit which was at High-Level Sky Grade.

He gained this pill recipe from Old Man Garvin, and this was something rare even from the perspective of the entire 52 territories.

Methods to increase the quality of the soul force were always unique and could cause a bloodbath if released into the world.

Even though the grade was low, this pill was and always been incredibly high on demand in the wealthy territories, so he doubted that he will ever be able to gain the ingredients in the stores of the Xuan Capital or even in this territory for that matter.

'It can't be that I have to tour around the world to search for the ingredients, right?' Davis increasingly got worried.

A few seconds later, he pushed aside his worries and concentrated on his current task since thinking about this wouldn't do him any good for now.

'One more Peak-Level Grand Beast Stage Magical Beast and I will probably be able to break through again...' He contemplated and was sure that was the case.

As his soul force quality dropped, the number of soul essences he needed to advance dropped as well.

Presumably, when he tried to break into the Mature Soul Stage, the Sixth Stage in Soul Forging Cultivation, he guessed a single soul essence comparable to that level will suffice.

Suddenly, he furrowed his brows and turned to look behind.

From the direction behind him, he sensed an energy ripple.

4 kilometers away from him, he saw a wide range of magical beasts gang upon a human entourage.

With all the short trees blocking his vision, he was only able to see some blurry sights at that distance.

If he extended his senses, he would naturally be able to see clearly, but if the other party had a Soul Forging Cultivator stronger than him, then he would be discovered.

Davis wasn't willing to be discovered, so he moved closer to them in the concealed state he was in...

He was sure that unless it was a strengthened Peak-Level Elder Soul Stage Expert and above expert, no one would be able to discover him.

As he neared into the 2-kilometer mark, he was able to view the entourage with perfect clarity.

There were actually 9 people, with at least 8 of them currently battling while the remaining one spent time leisurely looking at the battle with interest.

Soon, as minutes passed, the entourage killed the magical beasts that ganged-up on them without breaking any sweat.

The eight of them then scattered around as they set up a cauldron and placed cooking utensils to tend to the corpse of the magical beasts.

Soon, there were even luxurious types of furniture to sit around and a bunch of drinks placed on top of the furniture.

'What is this? A breakfast session? Is there a need to be this extravagant?' Davis turned speechless. This was the inner region for heaven's sake! If a Sixth Stage Magical Beast came to mess with them, wouldn't they still suffer a loss?

Confirming that there was no soul forging cultivators stronger than him in this entourage, he was no more than 20 meters away from them right now.

As soon as the cooking process started and continued till midway, an exquisite aroma swiftly spread through the air, making one's sense of smell get intoxicated.

A person quickly sealed the surrounding space by not letting it spread to the air around the area with a wind type technique.

Looking at the aroma filled space, Davis was actually tempted to steal the rich nutritious meat being cooked in the cauldron.

Calming himself down, he listened to the conversation of these men.

".... It's not like that, Young Master."

"Haha, don't be shy, we all know that you sneaked out on that day to visit her in that place..."

A middle-aged man hurriedly shook his hand as he tried to explain himself, yet before he could, he was embarrassingly exposed by the one he called as young master.

The other men surrounding them all burst out into a round of laughter.

Another middle-aged man with a smiling, yet calm expression, sat as he bit onto the piece of meat.

This person was the young master who exposed one of his men's deeds.
