Divine Emperor of Death

Chapter 879 Incadescent Vermillion Soul Mantra

Blazing energy of magma flames erupted from the conjured earthen volcano below, rising towards Davis with an undisputed momentum! It rose in a terrifying manner, almost encasing him in its blazing temperature!

"Blazing Incandescent Plume Sea..." Davis's deep voice echoed.

It was as if the voice came from an ancient time. The soul force that surged out from his soul sea, swirled around him descended into a waterfall of light red feathers, turning into a brilliant flaming sea that clashed with the rising dark-red magma!

*Boom!~*

The two forces collided, but in an instant, it was clear who possessed the upper hand.

*Szz!~*

*Szz!~*

No matter how the rising volcano seethed with rage or looked incredibly dangerous, it was repeatedly suppressed by the Blazing Incandescent Plume Sea Technique.

"As expected. Protector's prowess in Soul Forging Cultivation is really an eye-opener!" Ancestor Dian Alstreim laughed.

He snapped his fingers as a sound echoed, and another burst of rising magma rose into the skies, colliding with the sea of flames that descended. However, it was still unable to reach or even cancel the first technique which the Conferred Queen's Protector used.

Ancestor Dian Alstreim blinked, and for a moment, he was not able to believe his eyes. Looking at the black-robed Protector, look at him as if his techniques weren't a threat to him, Ancestor Dian Alstreim smiled.

"Good! Then what about this?"

"Exploding Volcanic Spear!"

A grand dark-red spear that was ten meters long and a meter wide manifested above Ancestor Dian Alstreim's hand. He clenched the grand dark-red spear with his palm and launched it against the Conferred Queen's Protector while the previous technique was still keeping the opponent occupied.

Davis didn't make any grand gestures. He kept his calm as he watched the dark-red flaming spear make its way towards him. A diagram or an illustration formed in front of him, creating the image of a grand Vermilion Bird with its wings spread.

There were many little light red dots, and they connected to form the image of a Vermilion Bird. However, those bright red dots were all little feathers that glowed like thousands of dragonflies. They quickly transformed into a big and sharp blazing talon that struck the spear before it was caught in its grasp!

*Boom!~*

The flaming dark-red spear exploded, but the calmly burning and grand talons turned into an enveloping wing that didn't even let a hint of the chaotic explosion leak from the shackles.

Ancestor Dian Alstreim floated stunned. The Grand Elders were all in disbelief.

Even if the Exploding Volcanic Spear was caught, it was impossible to suppress the resulting explosion. They were in deep disbelief because although this technique may have taken the shape of a grand spear, it was absolutely explosive. If it hit a slightly weaker target who was caught off-guard, it was even doubtful if the ashes would remain.

But such a technique got suppressed just like that? By a technique that looked like the grand dark-red bird?

"What's the name of that magnificent technique?" Ancestor Dian Alstreim's gaze became heated.

"Vermilion Bird's Talon Shackles..." Davis's deep yet hoarse voice echoed.

"A Vermilion Bird!?" Ancestor Dian Alstreim looked taken aback before he nodded his head, "No wonder... The grade of the Soul Forging Cultivation Manual should be high... Excellent!"

Davis inwardly sighed but didn't bother with that statement and Ancestor Dian Alstreim's strange behavior. Maybe it was greed, but he didn't care.

He initially didn't want to tell since the word Vermilion Bird can bring untoward consequences, but he was done hiding. He realized that the more he hid and did things from the shadows, the despicable he felt while the more things he did while being out in the open, the more he felt empowered.

He felt this during the battle exchange and now! He was no longer going to suppress himself! So, if Ancestor Dian Alstreim really made a hostile move on him, he didn't mind sending him to the afterlife.

However, that didn't mean that he was going to stake it all foolishly. Even if he killed the Ancestor, there was no way he could finish killing all the Grand Elders before his soul essence ends up empty.

Heck, soul essence was not like blood essence. The more he lost, perhaps the more retarded he would become, the more hallucinations he would start to have, and the greater the chances that he simply ends up dead as if he naturally died.

Unless he absolutely needed to make a move, Davis felt that he wouldn't increase the stakes up for himself and do something foolish.

By this time, Magma Encases the Skies that was seething below him frothed. It had already ended, and the martial platform below was scorched black. Blazing Incandescent Plume Sea that suppressed the Magma Encases the Skies with ease had also disappeared because he no longer supplied the technique with soul force.

Davis spoke, "It seems that the Fire Laws you have comprehended for the soul has reached Level Four Intent. That's not bad..."

"And it seems that the Fire Laws that you have comprehended for your soul hasn't even reached the Level One Intent. Let me guess. You are skilled in Darkness Laws?" Ancestor Dian Alstreim knowingly chuckled.

He had seen the Imagery Stone that contained the scenes of the Conferred Queen's Protector battling the Million Emerald Calamity Vines with Darkness Laws. Little did he know that it was not Darkness Laws, but another mighty, terrifying law that he had never faced before!

"Perhaps..." Davis chuckled back.

He didn't correct Ancestor Dian Alstreim's misunderstanding but pondered about the difference in comprehending Laws.

Laws are like a universe ocean.

Fire Laws might be a part of the ocean, but it has numerous seas that formed many branches, and innumerable rivers that formed sub-branches and even isolated lakes forming from secret underground currents, giving birth to the rare properties of Fire Laws.

It was the same for many other Laws, constituting the Universe Ocean of Laws.

Comprehending Fire Laws didn't mean that a person will be able to use it for all the types of energy they possess. It would only mean that the person would be able to use Fire Laws with the compatible cultivation. It didn't matter what kind of laws a person has comprehended, but it must be compatible with the type of energy being used and must also have resonated with heaven and earth energy.

Only then would comprehended laws be usable.

For example, Ancestor Dian Alstreim is said to have reached Level Nine Intent in Fire Laws, but that was for Essence Gathering Cultivation. For Soul Forging Cultivation, his comprehension regarding Fire Laws was extremely less, remaining in Level Four Intent.

As for Body Tempering Cultivation, who knows?

Davis feared this in the past. He was afraid that he would be unable to comprehend laws in all three cultivations. If comprehending Laws was so easy, perhaps there would be innumerable experts in the cultivation world.

However, Davis wasn't disheartened and remained hopeful.

Old Man Garvin Woller once said to him that all branches in the rivers of laws eventually reached the sea and sank into the ocean. The ocean remained vast, but it also possessed a bit of everything. That meant, as long as he comprehended Laws to a deep level, the comprehension of the same or bordering Laws in other types of cultivation would follow suit!
