Divine Emperor of Death

Chapter 3801  Testing His Might

"That would've startled me if I was still the Zenova who hasn't digested the Gilded Realm Ascendant Pill."

Zenova Artoria sighed, "It's not enough to defeat me. However, I won't attack you quickly. Let me see what you got. You can use Firestorm Laws, right?"

"Perhaps I'll teach you some moves as your senior."

Zenova Artoria's voice was full of tease as though she had talked down to him.

Davis raised his hand high this time. He pointed the tip of his index finger above it, and a ball of dark crimson flames began growing. It expanded like a balloon, seething with deadly dark crimson annihilative heavenly flames. It seared the spatial atmosphere, growing into a massive five hundred meters diameter long burning ball.

However, it quickly began to compress within a second, becoming more than a few meters in diameter.

Without replying, he threw it towards her.

*Booom!~*

It exploded the next second, encompassing Zenova Artoria and the surrounding three kilometers in an explosion of dark, soaring flames. It soared high into the sky, creating a massive shockwave that crossed incredible distance and made Myria and everyone else's hair flutter.

Space distorted within that area, but there seemed to be no sign of collapse.

It made them all smile as they were glad to know that Stella's mini realm was holding up well against attacks at Level Six Immortal Emperor Stage.

In fact, they figured the spatial density was even stronger than the First Haven World's or the Third Layer of the Three-Layered Universe, but that was understandable considering the spatial density was only applied within a small mini-realm that only extended to nine hundred million kilometers instead of trillions or more.

Nonetheless, as the flames died down, Zenova Artoria's figure was once again revealed.

Like before, she was completely unharmed. Her lush black hair waved in hair as her eyes shone crimson.

"I asked for Firestorm Laws." She didn't sound amused.

"Haha."

Davis finally chuckled, "You're such an authoritative woman…"

He shook his head, waving his hand, "Compared to you— what level do you think my comprehension of heavenly annihilation property is?"

"If it's just comprehension of annihilative property— you're way above mine, but that's understandable considering you had more encounters and chances to digest these heavenly treats."

Zenova Artoria answered and grinned, "However, if it's the fusion of Fire Laws and Lightning Laws, I assume I'm way better."

"That's right."

Davis nodded, "I've been indulging in my Soul Forging Cultivation for so long that I put my Essence Gathering Cultivation on the back burner. However, I did train here and there occasionally, and the Celestial Luminescence Pill also helped me comprehend a lot of things I couldn't and allowed me to learn one Divine Technique from the Firestorm World Ode. Will you receive it for me and allow me to know where I stand before you?"

His tone was polite and gentlemanly, making Zenova Artoria's eyes blink before a gentle sigh escaped her mouth.

"If you ask in such a tone, how can I possibly reject."

"Many thanks."

Davis cupped his hands.

Using Divine Techniques brought forth a natural phenomenon. Would using it attract heavenly forces into the spatial realm and possibly allow Mystic Diviners to detect his location much more accurately?

Davis didn't know, but since he had plans of leaving here, he wanted to try.

*Rumble!~*

In the clear starry skies of Stella's mini realm, thunderous clouds began to appear.

Between his cupped hands, dark crimson flames roared from one hand, and crimson-silver lightning crackled from the other. Both energies cast an otherworldly glow, one surging with a fiery brilliance and the other illuminating the area with a crackling intensity.

Taking a light breath, Davis began to separate his cupped hands and swung them in a graceful, circular motion, guiding the annihilative fire and heavenly lightning toward each other. As they drew closer, the air around them changed, humming with raw, untamed power.

At the point of convergence at the center of his palms engaging in a circulating motion, the dark crimson flames and crimson-silver lightning intertwined, flames wrapping around lightning like a living creature and merging with them to create a black-crimson vortex that glowed like a sinister inferno dancing and flickering with an unholy intensity.

These strange flames cast distorted, nightmarish shadows across the terrain, adding to the extreme heat that had already gathered.

As the fusion reached its peak, the cortex condensed into a single concentrated sphere of black-crimson energy wave that constantly revolved as though trying to maintain the concentration of forces without breaking it.

"…"

Zenova Artoria narrowed her eyes.

She couldn't believe how profound his control over Firestorm Laws was without even having her specific physique. After all, she could see only very minute energy disperse within the spherical mold of heavenly firestorm energy he created.

'I see… he comprehended the Thunderous Inferno Tempest…'

Back then, she had used this Divine Technique on Gawain, the Obsidian Crystal Turtle Clan's Inheritor, and cracked his incredible defense, but even then, she hadn't used firestorm energy to do it but only used the combination of fire and lightning to do it.

Gawain acted like he was an Emperor for still standing against her attack, but once she displayed the minute undulations of firestorm energy used in tandem with the Thunderous Inferno Tempest, everyone's scalp turned numb, and the whole crowd fell silent. At the same time, Gawain retreated, his face full of fear.

Right now, Davis is using Firestorm Laws to perform the Thunderous Inferno Tempest Divine Technique.

She wanted to see how far his comprehension took him.

*Rumble!~~~*

With heaven and earth rumbling above them, Davis's Thunderous Inferno Tempest became ready in a few seconds.

The thunderous black-crimson tempest swirled like a vortex and abruptly shot forward like a divine retribution arrow as Davis pushed his hand forward.

'It's coming…!'

Zenova Artoria's eyes widened.

As the black-crimson amalgamation of firestorm energy made its way, it twisted and churned the void dust around it, kicking up a storm in its wake. The sight of it was like a kirin magnificently wreaking havoc through the skies as the manifestation of its head turned visible the more it got closer to her, looking like it was going to ram her with its head.

Zenova Artoria raised her hand in response, annihilative heavenly lightning and annihilative heavenly flames finally appearing before her.

*Booom!!!~*

The crimson-black vortex of firestorm energy struck Zenova Artoria and pushed her back all the way until a few hundred meters before the vortex exploded into a soaring mass of thunderous tempest of firestorm snakes crackling in the atmosphere.

Millions of minor spatial cracks appeared in the area as the attack entered the foot of Level Eight Immortal Emperor Stage. However, the spatial cracks appeared to be quickly repairing, and there were many layers to the space, which meant they wouldn't be pulled into the void or outside.

Stella's mini realm was great, but the others eyed the battle with intense excitement as the Divine Technique climbed to thirteen levels higher, perhaps reaching the peak at the very center of the explosion where Zenova Artoria was.

There was no way she didn't want to defend against that as they guessed it was capable of harming her, and she responded adequately by taking a defensive measure.

They wanted to see the results, waiting for the explosion to fade and the smoke to clear.

Amidst the silence, the smoke eventually cleared, revealing Zenova Artoria, who was utterly unharmed. The remnant energy around her crackling with kirin-like black-crimson firestorm snakes made her look cooler than ever.

"As expected…"

Evelynn uttered, "Despite the magnificent firestorm attack, there's no way Zenova Artoria would fall to that attack."

Unlike the other ladies, the big three still looked calm as they knew what Zenova Artoria was capable of. They battled with her and knew what she would be like after absorbing the Gilded Realm Ascendant Pill.

It was a significant change that allowed them to be separated from supreme geniuses in a superior manner.

"Excellent~"

At this moment, Zenova Artoria's voice reverberated across, "To have reached the third intermediate resonance in Firestorm Laws, you're as good as me before I went to sleep in the Heavenly Ice Stasis Valley."

"…" Davis frowned.

"It is the same as after I woke up in the Heavenly Ice Stasis Valley." Zenova Artoria reiterated her words after seeing him disappointed.

Her words caused Davis to brighten as he looked at her and nodded approvingly, "That sounds better."

"…"

Zenova Artoria wanted to facepalm. It seems like he confused his current achievements with her millions of years ago, but after millions of years, she was the same since she had been sleeping. In fact, she was slightly pissed that his comprehension had been extremely fast.

Was it due to the Celestial Luminescence Pill he obtained? It granted a significant innate boost to comprehension ability, after all.

She had never seen a person with a ridiculous growth rate as Davis.

The others also understood what Zenova Artoria meant and couldn't help but giggle. They knew their husband was quite competitive no matter the person he was against.

They also knew what third intermediate resonance meant.

After all, Supreme Laws have nine minor resonances and three intermediate resonances.

It is only in the Immortal King Stage or Monarch Stage that Supreme Laws' Intents become comprehendible. However, Davis didn't seem to have reached such a level yet, but they knew third intermediate resonance was already good for Supreme Laws.

His Reincarnation Law, which was Supreme Laws, was already at Level Three Intent, so they were eager to see when he would use it, and as they expected, he-

"Alright, thanks for measuring my Firestorm Laws."

Davis nodded, "I hope I can learn from you more. However, I don't wish to waste your time for too long as I imagine you want the Destructive Law Treasure quickly, so let's finish the battle with her utmost strengths before carrying out whatever plans we have for each other."

*Bzzzz!~*

A strange iridescent wheel appeared behind Davis, its very existence making Zenova Artoria's heart sink as she felt her soul tremble. She could feel its undulations, her eyes flickering with shock.

This person… she wanted someone to tell her that he had already taken the Gilded Realm Ascendant Pill and was in the process of digesting it.

Otherwise, how could his Soul Forging Cultivation could be so exaggerated!?
