Divine Emperor of Death

Useless without Fallen Heaven...

It was something that Davis was already aware of, but somehow, this thought deeply resounded within him, especially at this time, after he realized the point Princess Isabella was trying to make.

Experts weren't born but were made!

He was aware that he was not overwhelmingly powerful without the help of Fallen Heaven, and that's why he always didn't race through Soul Forging Cultivation since his own comprehension was lacking. That is why he took things slow despite being able to reach the next level in Soul Forging Cultivation from refining soul essences!

Now that he reached an epiphany, he truly felt that he should stop relying on Fallen Heaven for everything. Otherwise, the growing expert in him would turn slothful while he spent his time living and scheming while relying on Fallen Heaven.

Davis sensed a sudden inspiration and felt that he should balance between using Fallen Heaven and using his own battle prowess!

Princess Isabella turned around and asked, "You have readied the martial arena, right?"

Elder Towerfall's cheeks twitched from her straight-forward and imposing attitude. Although he too detested schemes somewhat and was straight-forward, he'd never seen a woman with a strength weaker than him this audacious. It could be said that his world view or narrow space was truly opened up wide.

People from the larger Territories completely looked down on people from the smaller Territories, and it would be a lie if he said that he didn't experience any discrimination. However, they were all from men and women but not from a woman of the younger generation.

Elder Enye nodded her head in response and pointed in the direction of the southeastern gate, "In ten minutes, the martial arena would be set up outside this city so as to avoid damaging and maintaining the integrity of the Imperial Ethren Family."

Davis's lips twitched.

Didn't they just break into the Ethren City without regard for its rules for the sake of posturing and momentum? His initial impression of this female elder changed. She was definitely shameless!

At the same time, the two arks in the back changed directions and left towards the southeastern gate. The wind picked up, leaving a breeze that brushed past them.

"So, what are you two going to gift me? I'll have to say that if it is any lower than a Low-Level Emperor Grade Treasure or doesn't interest me, I'll have to ask you all to scram from my sight." Princess Isabella coldly spoke.

Elder Towerfall and Elder Enye's expression twisted. Not only did the Conferred Queen was confident that her side would not lose, but she was also incredibly rude!

Wasn't the Conferred Queen too overbearing??

Elder Towerfall's extremely thick veins became visible on his bald head, but he tried his best to keep his anger in check.

As for Elder Enye, her expression turned glacial. Even if she was patient, as an elder from a hegemonic power, there was a limit to how much she can endure humiliation and the Conferred Queen had just crossed that threshold.

On the other hand, Davis secretly nodded his head. In fact, he felt this was the correct way to treat guests who appear to claim treasures that don't belong to them. What he did to them was treating them amicably in comparison.

"Oh? You two don't seem to agree with my words. If you're unconvinced, why don't we try battling it out by ourselves?" Princess Isabella's arrogant yet melodious voice echoed.

It caused Elder Towerfall and Elder Enye to look at her coldly. Knowing what would happen if they harmed her, why would they willingly fall into a trap?

They had long been warned by the higher-ups to not harm the Conferred Queen no matter what.

Elder Enye no longer possessed an amicable gaze, "The Falling Snow Sect is willing to bring out the Nethersnow Spirit's Tear Drop that solidified in the Nethersnow Lake. It greatly and instantly enhances the comprehension of Ice Laws. However, we are only able to procure a twenty solidified teardrops at best."

"Oh? Interesting..." Princess Isabella's eyes lit up, "What grade is that treasure?"

"The Nethersnow Spirit is one of the hundreds of Spirit Races that possess a limit of reaching the Seventh Stage, hence their tears that solidify is also ranked at King Grade."

'Spirit Race!' Davis's eyes twitched on hearing those words, and even Princess Isabella slightly narrowed her brows.

When Davis first came to the First Layer, he was suspected to be a member of the spirit race by Grand Uncle Daniuis because of his Soul Forging Cultivation that seemed absurd for his age. He never met a member of the Spirit Race before, so he became awfully curious about the Spirit Race known as Nethersnow Spirit.

He instantly recalled seeing a lot of books on Spirit Races on the Ethren Family's Imperial Library. He collected them from his memories that categorized them and started to comprehend. In an instant, he was able to comprehend the basic information of Spirit Races.

Spirit Races, as their name indicates, possess a spiritual body and are highly attuned to the power of the soul. However, different from the soul body of humans and magical beasts, their spiritual body is their fleshy body.

Like soul bodies of humans that are able to completely materialize upon reaching the Sixth Stage, the Mature Soul Stage, the spiritual bodies of the members of the Spirit Races are also able to materialize, and it is the case even if they are in the First Stage.

And the way they procreate is also similar to humans and magical beasts, through copulation. However, it seems like magical beasts, they too possess a species limit that hinders and stagnates their growth, but unlike magical beasts, it seems that they all start from being a spiritual mortal; the First Stage.

This was similar to humans rather than a magical beast in the sense that they start from the beginning, unlike starting somewhere from Second Stage or the Third Stage like Earth Rank Magical Beast Species and Sky Rank Magical Beast Species.

Other than this, their Cultivation System is entirely different in the sense that they had to be in a suitable environment to grow. If a spirit race member that possessed fire attribute were to stay in a water or ice attributed location, the chances are that they would soon die. It mostly depends upon their cultivation stage and endurance.

The next second, he was also able to retrieve the information about Nethersnow Spirits of the Spirit Races from one of the books.

Apparently, they are widely known, and that was why the Ethren Empire was able to compile some information on them.

The Nethersnow Spirits were calm and mostly emotionless creatures, and they possessed the form of a human but possessed two small ice horns on their foreheads, at the top of their eyebrows. They looked extremely beautiful, almost as if they were ice statues as their skin appeared pale blue.

They were all living in the Territory belonging to the Falling Snow Sect, and it is said the Falling Snow Sect has them under their wing and protection.

"King Grade?" Princess Isabella asked with a frown.

"Even though it is logically graded at King Grade, its value is no less than a Low-Level Emperor Grade Treasure in the sense that it can even increase the comprehension of an ice cultivator from Elementary Intent to Level One Intent of Ice Laws!" Elder Enye quickly replied.
