Divine Emperor of Death Chapter 227 Tyrant Physique?

"What about me? Am I a genius too? You said so yourself just a while ago..." Davis raised his brows.

"Hmm, I have checked you enough. Since you can fight across levels using your Soul Forging Cultivation, you are definitely a genius and there’s no doubt about it."

"Hehe, I think my soul is about 5 times stronger..." Davis smirked as he rubbed his nose, quite proud.

Garvin turned smug, "I inspected and found out that you have no special physique except other than your soul being stronger."

"It doesn’t matter..." Davis shrugged but was confused. Didn’t he possess the Tyrant Physique?

"Heh, sooner or later, you would lose your advantage of being able to fight across levels and reduced to be merely a common cultivator."

"What!? Why?" Davis was shocked! His face expressed worry.

Old Man Garvin shook his head, "As I said before, you’ll lose your advantage as you advance through stages."

"Once you get to the Fifth Stage, it is not easy anymore to fight across stages. You must’ve realized this at some point."

"It’s because the rift and the power gap increases by a large margin at every stage, even in the levels of the latter stages."

Davis’s expression turned aghast but his eyes told that he had already expected this to be the outcome.

Davis calmed down and thought to the time he tried to fight a Fifth Stage Soul Forging Cultivator, Elder Severin.

But since he was caught by his neck at that time, he assumed that he lost with Essence Gathering Cultivation and not Soul Forging Cultivation.

Now, it seemed like that wasn’t the case.

Old Man Garvin shook his head, "Theoretically, once you get to the Fifth Stage, you will need 5 times the strength to fight across a person of one level above you, meaning that, if you are at the Low-Level Elder Soul Stage, you can fight people who are at the Mid-Level Elder Soul Stage."

No wonder... It seemed like his Soul was likely three times stronger now, only capable of dealing with Low-Level Elder Stage Cultivators.

He understood that his previous assumption of being able to fight High-Level Elder Soul Stage Cultivators should be entirely wrong.

Davis nodded and voiced out his opinion, "So the only way I can increase my battle prowess is that if I somehow manage to increase the quality of my soul force and essence by a few times, right?

"Yes, and seeing that you have no special physique and no capable pills, you can forget about that for the time being."

"Eh... Are you kidding me!? I have the Tyrant Body Physique! How can you say that I have no physique!?" Davis snapped thinking that this old fart must have a screw loose in his head.

"Heh! Tyrant Body Physique? Don’t make me laugh, there is no such a thing as that..." Garvin laughed heartily.

"Hmph! I’m not lying! You can go ahead and check my body..."

"Kid, was your Tyrant Body innate from birth? Who said to you that it was the Tyrant Body Physique? I haven’t even heard of such a physique..."

Davis shook his head, "No, I didn’t have that when I was born. I managed to cultivate it when I ate the Tyrant Fruit, and it was written on the cultivation manual that one would gain a Tyrant Body Physique when done so..."

"Then the answer is simple, your cultivation method simply included body-type laws in it. To even complement that, the author of that cultivation manual must have thought of a method, and that must’ve been the Tyrant Fruit. It probably helped your body become compatible with the laws which were in the Tyrant Fruit, increasing your prowess in the process."

Old Man Garvin sneered, "You don’t believe me? Try activating your battle aura..."

Davis activated his battle aura and silver gaseous aura came out, enveloping him.

"See..." Garvin shrugged, "Your battle aura is tinged with a faint amount of elementary Earth Laws..."

When pointed out by Garvin, Davis also realized it as he concentrated. There was really a thread of elementary Earth Laws floating in his battle aura.

What can he say? He shut his mouth thinking that he was truly frog in a well.

’How come I didn’t notice it before?’ Davis thought for a moment before another thought popped upon his mind, "That’s right! My revolving core has mutated! You think that can make me possibly evolve it into a physique!?"

"Hmm... I noticed it but it is hard to say. The people who have cultivated their physiques are all physiques innately granted through their birth."

"Those who have cultivated physiques artificially are people who are either myths and legends... Not much is known about them as they have all chosen to not spread their secrets."

Davis turned sad, maybe his cultivation might turn out to be weak when compared to these people who possess a physique.

’Then I wonder if Clara has a physique?’ He contemplated but ultimately wouldn’t know if it was a physique in the first place.

He could only go to the Alstreim Family Territory to check about Clara’s Physique.

Even so, Davis still didn’t believe in Old Man Garvin’s words. It could just be a misguidance or misunderstanding on his part.

"Here, take look at this..." Davis handed over the Tyrant Body Secrets, Body Tempering Cultivation Manual to Old Man Garvin. He possessed a copy of it since he needed to be sure about cultivating to the Gold Stage, after all, it required tempering bone marrow including other parts of the body.

Old Man Garvin sighed and read the cultivation manual with a scrutinizing gaze.

As he read, he muttered from time to time, nodding to the author’s viewpoint in the method but then suddenly, his gaze turned solemn and even his face slowly followed suit.

It was quite a while before Old Man Garvin took his eyes off the manual, he turned to Davis as he asked, "Who wrote this?"
