Divine Emperor of Death

Chapter 3529  A Similar Problem

Davis's gaze narrowed as he saw the new arrivals.

Did the World Master actually descend instead of bringing them to her tea party?

"Master~"

Eldia grinned and shot towards him, dancing around him like an arcing lightning strand.

"Eldia…"

Davis saw that she was okay and caught her hand. He asked her if something was done to her, to which she shook her head.

"We did do something, and the World Master said nothing would befall you, and I didn't think I could decline the invitation since I know I would die easily in front of her when she introduced herself to me, so protect master, I had to go! Sacrifice myself~"

Eldia explained herself, appearing ecstatic, "However, the World Master was good to me, so all was fine."

"…"

Davis was speechless, not knowing what to say as Eldia was a smart spirit who knew to avoid danger, so she would've fled if she was truly in danger.

"So what did you do?" He asked a question instead.

"That's… a secret!"

"…"

Eldia appeared cheerful, so Davis didn't think she was necessarily harmed but turning to look at the World Master, he wondered what kind of thoughts the World Master put into her.

He knew she might not answer and might serve to anger her, so he sighed and pointed into the distance.

"Why is this place sealed…?"

"Just a precaution." The World Master's voice was calm, "You two possess a high amount of karmic burden that even without you bringing down a tribulation, someone in the true immortal world might pick up your aura and descend. I would like to deny that plausible situation for anyone who may try to take advantage of our weakness or the ones who want to punish us in the name of justice."

"But wouldn't do that-"

The World Master interrupted, "Yes, needless karmic burden for me, but I can't just watch and do nothing as you two bring uninvited guests into my world, placing me in a precarious position and placing this universe in jeopardy each time…"

"…"

Davis and Myria averted gazes, appearing guilty. It seemed that they both respected the World Master enough that they accepted their mistakes, looking like children in front of her.

"I've been watching you two occasionally, but here, I was always watching. You—"

She pointed at Myria, her beautiful eyes narrowing, "Have comprehended Level Three Intent Reincarnation Laws, something you hadn't managed to do in your previous life, and you—"

Davis blinked as he was pointed at.

"You comprehended Level One Intent in Reincarnation Laws and have also reached Level Three Intent in Chaos Laws. I didn't predict for the Chaotic Genesis Physique to reach such heights, allowing your prowess to reach twelve levels higher in not only soul but also your body."

"…!"

Myria appeared shocked, but Davis's expression twitched.

"I… was the test subject…?"

He pointed at himself with both his hands while inclining himself, causing the World Master to shake her head.

"It was her. It was supposed to support her Eternal Life Soul Physique, allowing her body to be invulnerable so she wouldn't die easily. However, she had other plans, perhaps better than mine, and you inherited the pill recipe, finally creating the Chaotic Genesis Physique. Did you honestly expect that I would have used it on myself when I don't need such a physique?"

"…" Davis had to shut his mouth in front of this monster.

He was forced to learn there was always a peak above one peak.

Nonetheless, he reluctantly cupped his hand.

"Many thanks for the pill recipe. Without it, I doubt I would've been able to increase the prowess of my immortal martial energy."

The World Master shook her head.

"The point is— both of you have eclipsed taboos of law comprehension restriction, and the heavens are extremely angered. Your upcoming tribulation will be tremendously difficult, to say the least, although I'm not sure if you're on the level of inviting a divine punishment."

"…!?"

Davis and Myria widened their eyes.

A divine punishment? The one that hit the World Master and caused her soul to be in an ailing state?

They clenched their fists, feeling that it might be possible that they might also be targeted with divine punishments as the karmic burden they both felt had reached supreme heights, far more than they ever had previously.

However, it wasn't like divine punishments were something that came along with a heavenly tribulation, so if they were going to get hit, they would already be hit, so they didn't understand.

Just as they were going to ask the World Master, she continued.

"I'm sure you have methods to overcome, but I will warn you again. Don't ever try to advance into the Immortal Emperor Stage. Otherwise…"

The World Master glanced at Davis's hand, causing a burning sensation to appear in the back of his palm.

Davis knew that was where the teleportation rune was etched on him, guessing she was warning him that she could activate it as well.

"I understand."

Davis heavily nodded as though he got the message but his expression appeared like he wanted to ask something no matter what.

"What about bedding Myria? It shouldn't be a problem if we- ow."

"…"

Myria pinched his arm, causing Davis to react.

However, the World Master seemed as indifferent as ever.

"That is not my problem. I can only warn; not stop you or alter the course of the path you walk and incur more karmic burden in return. Do what you want to do, but don't complain when consequences are at your doorstep."

"…"

Davis and Myria appeared as though they were mulling over their choices, but as soon as they caught sight of each other's gaze, their logic dropped out of their minds, leaving them blind.

"That Will, is it yours?"

But suddenly, the World Master asked.

Davis narrowed his eyes, his gaze turning solemn, "If it isn't mine, I wouldn't be frolicking with my beauties anymore and keep myself from them until I could cause the other Will to perish."

"…"

The World Master blinked as though she didn't know if she found his words ridiculous or nod, as it portrayed his character very well. Naturally, she kept tabs on him and knew what happened after he improved his soul physique, so she doubted if his true self finally showed up, but to her confusion, he was acting in a way that constantly suppressed it.

She even figured it was a ploy to fool her, but she could also see him being so obsessive that he wouldn't make love with his women when another yang soul hid in him, causing her to not know what to think.

In the end, she shook her head and simply disappeared.

"What does she mean…?" Myria quickly asked Davis.

"Oh, it's not anything to worry. Just my soul from my improved soul physique all acting up as it considers itself far more than an Emperor."

"Like what…?"

"Like a celestial entity that considers every life beneath it minuscule. Fortunately, I had Mira humble its stature, although it still acts up every once in a while. However, I can assure you that it's negligible, so don't worry."

"Why would you do that…?" Myria appeared confused, "Isn't that the perfect opportunity to increase the strength of your own Will? If you project that through Heart Intent, then no one would be able to- "

"No thanks." Davis appeared stubborn, "That is not how I want to live my life or cultivate. Your sisters were getting scared just by being around me in that state. Do you think I would seriously continue to allow them to feel that way? Do you want to see Ellia scared around me?"

"…"

Myria also turned speechless like the World Master. However, she shook her head, "Truthfully speaking, I'm also feeling like that ever since I came out. However, my soul is my soul and it also accepts you, wants you, so I'm happy about it but I wouldn't know how it would react to other people. In front of the World Master, my soul knew how to behave but in front of Eldia…"

"…"

Eldia blinked as she was gazed at by the two people.

"Sit~"

"Ahh!~"

Eldia sat down on the mountain peak, her mouth parting in shock as her movements were involuntary. Her soul also shuddered in front of this Will, but she was able to overcome it and stand up, appearing to pout.

She felt like she was caught unawares, or this wouldn't have happened.

"Combined with a bit of Mandate Laws, I think I can effectively force my Will onto others."

Myria seemed fairly unapologetic about her actions as she turned to look at him, making Davis blink.

Could it be that they both reached a level where their souls have transcended the level of humans?

However, Davis shook his head, feeling these were all secondary concerns.

"Should we go back? If we do, I might get convinced to stay, so let's.. do it..."

He caught her hands, looking at her with a passionate gaze that made Myria's overbearing gaze melt and quiver.
