Divine Emperor of Death Chapter 414 Sixth Stage In Body Tempering Cultivation

Davis instantly redirected the gentle amalgamation of energy to his bones, which in turn entered his bone marrow by seeping through the bones.

The gentle energy was just like a wave of refreshment before it started to wreak havoc. His expressions simultaneously changed when he experienced immense pain from his bones.

A prickling sense of pain, as if his bones were being carved made him shudder in pain. He almost wanted to dig out his bones from his body to curb the pain, just like how one scratches their itch to temporarily calm their itchiness.

In truth, it was not that the gentle energy from the Gold Bone Marrow Enhancing Pill turned berserk, but it was his bone marrow that simply couldn’t withstand the tempering.

This pill enhances one’s battle aura by enhancing one’s bone marrow and in turn, helps one to break into the Sixth Stage of Body Tempering Cultivation.

If he couldn’t withstand the pain and successfully enhance his battle aura to the next level, then he would be harmed and his Body Tempering Cultivation would regress to some point, maybe even a level or two.

Time passed as he endured the excruciatingly yet extreme tempering process. His concentration and focus were destroyed many times but since his willpower was enhanced by his Mature Soul Stage Cultivation, he was able to quickly re-enter through sheer focus and continue the tempering.

After an unknown amount of time, the pill efficacy that remained in his bone marrow was fully absorbed which in turn, helped his battle aura to undergo a rebirth.

That once gold colored battle aura slowly turned into a type of energy that could semi-materialize at will, just like soul force but a little bit different.

This energy was known as martial energy, and one could use it to create numerous objects to help them in battle.

For example, creating a battle armor out of martial energy to wear and defend at the one’s body.

Although, it wasn’t recommended since the martial energy inside the object would disappear as soon as the martial energy was depleted.

Davis opened his eyes and spat out a mouthful of blood. The blood that splashed on the ground was black and gave off some steam, likely, it seemed to be burning.

Due to tempering the bone marrow, he slightly reeked of odor, but he quickly shook that away by using his own energy to wipe off his body.

Davis held his head, thinking how much time had passed.

Since he wasn’t able to keep his concentration for most of the time, he wasn’t able to grasp how much time had passed.

He took a message talisman and sent his energy into it.

"Mother, how much time has passed since I last talked to you?"

He waited for a few seconds and received a reply, "Two weeks passed from the time we discussed about leaving..."

’Oh, I just took a week again?’ Davis mused and inwardly nodded his head.

His breakthrough in Essence Gathering Cultivation System took him a week, and it seems like his breakthrough in Body Tempering Cultivation System also took him a week.

"Good, in a month, we can leave!" Davis replied and extended the deadline by a month.

"You already experienced a breakthrough!?" Claire’s voice resounded with disbelief.

"Yes, I successfully entered Law Seed Stage and Martial Ascension Stage."

The other side suddenly went silent for a few seconds before an excited voice could be heard.

"Absolutely wonderful, Davis! I can’t believe this is happening! Your Body Tempering Cultivation System caught up to your Soul Forging Cultivation System! This is unbelievable!!!"

Davis laughed and felt ecstatic inside, "Mother, we all know that it’s because of the Earth Dragon Immortal’s Blood Essence that I’m able to break through this soon."

"Haha," Claire proudly laughed, "You have a point but being able to experience this kind of a breakthrough at 21 simply couldn’t be brushed off like that! It shouldn’t be!"

Davis laughed, even more, feeling his mother’s happiness travel towards his heart, even from the message talisman.

But suddenly, his expression turned a little bit downcast when he thought about his mother’s Body Tempering Cultivation which stopped at Peak-Level Silver Stage.

He couldn’t help but say, "Mother, I’m sorry..."

"For what?" Claire’s confused yet happy voice echoed again.

Davis sighed, "Mother, I still have the means to raise your cultivation into the Gold Stage without any repercussions but I simply choose not to..."

After a short moment of pause, Claire asked in a bewildered tone, "What do you mean?"

"Mother, I still have a drop of Earth Dragon Immortal Blood Essence remaining with me."

On the other side, he could hear Claire’s gasp.

"But I have saved it up for Evelynn..." He said.

Instantly, a sweet laugh echoed at him, "Oh, silly, if you don’t treat your woman good, who is going to treat her good then?"

Davis blinked.

"Could it be that you’re going to let another man treat your woman better?"

Davis laughed at his mother’s words. Her provocative yet indirect consoling means were seen through by him in an instant.

Besides, he knew that she worded it like that to not place him in a position that would make him feel guilty for not choosing his mother over his woman.

He replied in a jovial tone, "Of course not! I would kill that scheming man before he could even try to capture her heart!"

"Right? So you don’t even need to consider this matter. Just do what your heart says and follow it till you have no regrets!"

"Hmm." Davis nodded, a warm feeling encroaching his heart.

Which weaker human would be able to resist the temptation of gaining a drop of Immortal Blood Essence that would enhance their basic talent and have their limitations removed from facing bottlenecks till a certain stage?

His mother was able too!

He did expect this to happen and reality to prove to him that his belief was not misplaced!

He was well aware that some families would abandon their own kin at some point, maybe for survival or growth, or to even gain measly benefits.

He was glad that his current family didn’t turn out to be one because his previous family on Earth was certainly one!

Yes, Mo Mingzhi’s parents and his parents were equally evil forming triads all over China. If it weren’t for this, he wouldn’t have sympathized with Mo Mingzhi.

With the Death Book in his hands, it wasn’t too difficult to investigate his own past.

Originally, he thought he would gain some more blood essence in the Emperor Grade Trial but he was instead met with disappointment since the Emperor Grade Treasury didn’t have Blood Essence, neither did it have the diluted version.

At that time, he could only feel good that he had saved one drop of blood essence from the three that had been rewarded to him.

"Don’t worry mother, I’ll search for other methods for you to improve your cultivation sooner once we reach the First Layer."

"Of course, I know you will."

Davis kept the messaging talisman inside and clenched his fists.

The martial energy flowing inside him made him want to release it outside to see its effects.

Thinking that he would destroy the Royal Castle that if he were to release his martial energy unchecked, he decided against it.

He had just broken through and was afraid that he wouldn’t be able to control the energy released since he didn’t even become familiar with martial energy.

He took one step at a time and released his martial energy at the tip of his finger. It seemed similar to the energy of Essence Gathering Cultivation but not. It had a feeling of roughness to it, not intrinsically but in a general way of things.

It meant that it was not rough or soft literally but it felt as if it was a mix between solid and liquid.
