Divine Emperor of Death Chapter 521 Ethren Capital City

’As expected of an Empire that has a history of over 5,000 years.’ Davis’s eyes flashed with admiration.

He had heard this information from his Grand Uncle Daniuis while they were traveling to the Ethren Empire on the flying boat, so he wasn’t worried about the authenticity of the information.

In the Grand Sea Continent, the Ruth Empire existed for thousands of years, probably more than the Ethren Empire, but the Grand Sea Continent was plagued by few little resources that she couldn’t even support cultivators of the Sixth Stage, so they couldn’t quite measure up to the Ethren Empire in terms of prowess and strength.

This made Davis heave a sigh of pity for the Grand Sea Continent. The Grand Sea Continent is more or less ten times more spacious than the Alstreim Family Territory as a whole, so he just found it lamentable.

Davis then cast his gaze over to a massive gate which was 500 meters tall and 100 meters wide.

It would be soon their turn to enter, so Davis couldn’t help but subconsciously cast a glance at his group to check one more time to see that there was nothing irregular with them.

Indeed, there was nothing wrong, other than the fact that all of them had their masks removed, or changed.

Davis grinned slightly especially casting his gaze over to Lucia and Su Hualing, who had their masks changed. He raised his brows and taunted Lucia with a chuckle.

Lucia looked like she was fuming and will not wait to head over to Davis to ask why he was deceiving them all this while but when she cast her gaze at her father when Davis revealed his face, she realized that her father was not surprised!

In her anger, she had realized that they had both deceived her!

’Just you wait! After we settle down, I’ll pester you to no degree until you let me have Glyn’s body!’ She silently fumed and didn’t make much of a fuss at this time.

At that time of the face reveal, the others who knew him before that he was the leader of this group were still reveling in disbelief, like Su Hualing, Su Huabing, Su Huajing, Sasha, Haus, Nina, Lucas, and Ophelia.

While Jackson had no idea who this Davis was, for some reason he vaguely felt familiar but didn’t ponder too much on it.

Davis smirked and cast his gaze over to the massive gate where it became their turn to pay and enter next.

For maintaining anonymity as a group, they decided to enter separately but in pairs, with some of them wearing different masks while some of them did not opt to wear masks like him and Evelynn.

This way, the guards who were just languidly checking people would not remember them together even if a problem arises from one of them in the near future.

Davis and Evelynn who were together as a pair with no masks on their faces paid 2,000 Low-Level Spirit Stones and entered the majestic city.

’This!’ Davis was instantly flabbergasted and even Evelynn widened her eyes in shock.

The city was situated in flat ground, occupying 16,000,000 square kilometers (10 million square miles), so he presumed that it would be just like any other city, bustling with people walking to and fro in the seats with an almost endless amount of space.

Indeed the streets were 100 meters wide, the people were bustling, the buildings were rich in architecture and sense, however, there were clouds blocking his view 300 meters above him.

However, in the near distance, above the looming white clouds, he could vaguely see floating planks as if there was roadway for people to walk on...

Davis blinked and continued to walk along with Evelynn in a straight direction while holding her soft hand. Within a few minutes, all the members of the group met up and regrouped.

"What is that?" The first question he asked happened to point at the floating clouds in the city.

Daniuis rubbed the chin of his mask and pondered for a moment before answering, "I’ve heard of this before. Since there are billions of people in this city, the conflict between individuals or groups became inevitable."

"Everyone has pride, so the Ethren Empire thought of curbing this trouble by inflating their own ego as well as people who were similar to them."

"In any case, they don’t require the will of others to implement their will in their region. Hence, they decided it was better to establish a clear hierarchical structure in the capital city and implemented their plan."

"This..." Daniuis pointed to the ground and swirled his finger, "... Is probably the first level."

He then pointed his finger at the white clouds above and continued, "Separated by a cloud which is the result of a formation, there’s another level above which is the second level, and another cloud separation above it which should be the third level."

"The first level hosts people belonging to the power of Sky Grade while the second level has people belonging to King Grade."

"The third level should host people of Emperor Grade Power, although I highly doubt that many of them would exist in the first place."

Hearing Daniuis’s explanation, many of them felt that it could be the case.

"What about the Royal Ethren Family then?" Davis asked.

"I’m not sure of it, but the Royal Ethren Family should be at the third level or even a level above to elevate and establish themselves as the rulers."

Davis nodded his head as the others listened. He looked above and after pondering for a moment, he turned to look at Princess Isabella who had already removed her mask.

"We would have to rely on your strength then..."

"Me? Isn’t there him?" Princess Isabella pointed at Daniuis.

"Grand Uncle still has to make a recovery and his identity can’t be publicized, so he would have to stay masked."

"Instead, we’ll have to use your identity and strength to enter the second level and purchase a residence to establish ourselves in this place." Davis shamelessly smiled as he said.

As long as anyone in his group was going to be of use, he was willing to take advantage of them as long as the matter wasn’t severe.

Princess Isabella considered for a minute before she nodded her head, "Alright..."

She decided to use this Empire as a foothold to establish her identity. This way, she wouldn’t have to explain about her origins and could just fabricate it if garnered suspicion.

The group decided on it and walked into the city with great strides, not caring about the strange looks that were cast at them from time to time.

Princess Isabella’s bearing especially created a distance even though they were walking close.

’As expected of a princess...’ Davis inwardly laughed that she couldn’t even hide her origins at this rate. At the least, people would be able to vaguely discover her identity through her natural bearings.

He reminded her through Soul Transmission and Princess Isabella awkwardly tried to change her bearings into a common one.

As they walked on the streets among the crowd, Davis saw a mountain in the distance, instantly elevating the flat city he initially thought it to be. The elevation didn’t look natural, it was as if it were carved by cultivators and decorated with many patterns scribed atop of the alloy encased mountain.

It looked like a formation. Except, it didn’t feel like a formation but just looked like one. Perhaps, it was meant to fool people so Davis didn’t ponder much about it.
