Divine Emperor of Death Chapter 385 The Space Above

Antarctica.

In the airspace above the blue freezing waves and the white sheets of ice caps covering the entire surface, Davis and Clara floated as their entire vision was occupied by hazy ice.

They flew in the skies as their faces looked gloomy.

The former let out a sigh while the latter spoke, "Brother, this is the last location you mentioned but we’re not still able to enter any one of them. It’s best if we give up for now..."

Davis sighed as he nodded at her opinion.

He found a vague amount of spirit stones being encased in ice, however, he didn’t bother taking them away.

Those spirit stones didn’t even enter his eyes as he was extremely rich after clearing and getting the rewards of Emperor Grade Trial.

While checking the few other Vile Vortices, he vaguely hoped that they would at least be able to pass through one of them but it seemed like all of them denied entry to cultivators... at least to the ones of their level and stage.

"I would like to try again when I reach the Seventh Stage..." Davis spoke as he looked at the aurora that was visible in the night sky.

It was so beautiful yet he felt unfortunate since he wasn’t able to find the place where Fallen Heaven was sealed.

And...

’Drake was able to enter the Dragon’s Triangle when he was a mortal... and was even able to find a spatial formation to the First Layer. Could he enter the Dragon’s Triangle now that he had grown in Cultivation Base?’

Davis felt that he should try informing Drake to have him help out in this matter but was also hesitant due to certain reasons.

’Should I, or should I not?’ He mused since it seemed like Drake missed his family over here.

"Brother, shall we return to the Grand Sea Continent, or is there still anything if concern in this barren yet mysterious place?"

Davis turned to look at her as he understood her words.

The reason why she said barren was that there was no heaven and earth energy on Earth. It wasn’t that there was absolutely nothing but could be considered negligible.

It was so little that it could only probably support the likes of First Stage Cultivatorsat the max; however, First Stage Cultivators didn’t need that much heaven and earth energy in the first place, unlike the latter stages.

Heaven and earth energy were like oxygen and food for cultivators. Lacking it in the atmosphere could quickly cause their condition to deplete, leading to the consumption of the energy in their own body to survive.

If the energy in the body of a cultivator were to reach the point of nil, then they would essentially die of starvation.

This scenario seemed unlikely to occur in the cultivation world since the Second and First Layer was seething with heaven and earth energy in the first place.

"Mmm... Before that, we still have two things to take care of..." Davis replied as he looked above the starry skies.

His eyes glazed and it reflected the light, turning it into a pearl of a universe.

Outer Space!!

Clara also looked at the starry outer space as her eyes gleamed, "Brother, countless people tried to enter outer space in the Grand Sea Continent only to fail. Are we going to try that here?"

Davis’s curves curved into an excited grin, "Yes!"

Back in the Loret Family’s Library, he had read about the cultivators who had wanted to explore the outer space in the Grand Sea Continent but it seemed like once they reached a certain height, the skies seemed to extend even more as if the starry skies were an illusion.

In the end, none of the cultivators were able to break past that said limit to enter outer space, not even the legendary Sixth Stage Experts who were present in the ancient times of the Grand Sea Continent.

Clara was dumbfounded but her eyes revealed extreme excitement. Even her facial expression turned fanatical.

Davis smiled as he recalled the news which he saw. Moon Bases were actually being established currently with a population of hundred people.

Humanity had once again managed to reach the moon but they were at baby steps to the path of Space Age, not even close.

"Don’t worry, the mortals here have managed to reach outer space through their own ingenuity. If those mortals can reach, why can’t we..." Davis spoke while trying to boost their confidence but suddenly went silent.

Could it be that the same rules that barred them from entering these mysterious spaces also stop them from entering outer space?

Davis couldn’t help but get angry at this thought. He calmed himself down and continued, "In any case, we should try..."

Clara nodded her head, clearly excited.

*Boom!~"

They both shot to the skies at maximum speed.

A sonic boom echoed as Davis traveled at a speed of 350 meters per second, leaving Clara in the dust.

He looked down to see Clara travel at a speed of 200 meters per second through her Essence Gathering Cultivation and thought, ’Hmm, that’s her maximum speed?’

But soon, his thoughts turned to somewhere else, the sonic boom because, even if he used his full speed in the Second Layer, he still wouldn’t be able to cause a sonic boom, meaning that sound traveled faster if heaven and earth energy were to be present.

Sound and light required a medium to travel, and it seemed that heaven and earth energy could also act as a medium.

He finally understood as to why exactly sound was fast as light in the cultivation world, maybe even faster in certain cases and vice versa.

Soon, in a few minutes, they shot past orbiting satellites, space stations and exited the orbit of the Earth.

Davis stopped at a point somewhere in the Exosphere where there was literally no air.

The energy in is body circulated to keep him in a functional state, and the vacuum around seemed to have no significant effect on him.

Thankfully, it seemed like outer space wasn’t restricted by the mysterious entity.

Davis shouted in excitement, "Marvelous!!"

But the sound only echoed within his body and couldn’t be heard by any other being other than him since there was no medium that sound can use to travel in outer space.

Davis chuckled a bit, ’Maybe if it were the outer space in the Second Layer, the sound could still travel due to the heaven and earth energy being omnipresent there...’

Soon, Clara also managed to catch up to him and looked at the outer space in awe as she removed her veil, her eyes glowing with fervor and curiosity as she let herself float.

The bright white light of the moon seemed to shine on her entire figure, making her look absolutely like a celestial fairy born out of moonlight.

Davis looked at Clara and even he was tongue-tied at her extremely beautiful appearance.

He extended his hand in her direction and undulations in the form of energy spread, "Can you hear me?"

Clara turned to glance at him as she moved her mouth but no sound seemed to be heard.

Davis spoke again, "I can’t hear you..."

She frowned and then sent a Soul Transmission to her brother, "You’re spreading your energy to speak and that much is clear but I have no idea why my voice can’t reach you normally..."

Davis laughed slightly and explained to her about sound and light needing a medium to travel.

Clara nodded her head as she accepted her brother’s explanation, "So that’s what it is..."

Davis cast his gaze at the moon, "Look, can you see those small buildings at that point, near that big crater."
