Divine Emperor of Death Chapter 881 Incandescent Cry of the Vermilion

Hearing the Conferred Queen’s Protector state his willingness, the crowd’s eyes lit up, especially the younger generation who were eager to see the technique. Even the Elders and Grand Elders who were watching were possessing wide eyes, not wanting to miss anything.

Their exchange of pointers already gave them a bit of insight into the mysteries of the soul. Although it was only a bit, at their level, Elder Soul Stage and Mature Soul Stage, a bit is naturally huge in terms of comprehension.

"Good!" Ancestor Dian Alstreim heartily laughed.

Davis’s lips curved, "I’ll warn you beforehand that this technique directly affects the soul, so defend your soul with all you possess. Otherwise, it is possible for you to... scream from pain."

"Oh? That’s making me want to experience it firsthand... It’s been a long time since I screamed in pain..." Ancestor Dian Alstreim.

He didn’t look afraid or feared that he would be ashamed. Instead, he possessed an expression that said, ’Try me!’

Davis simply nodded his head and took a deep breath before he slowly pointed his index finger at Ancestor Dian Alstreim.

’A formless soul attack that makes the person dizzy, faint, and even die depending on the circumstances...’

"Incandescent Cry of the Vermilion!"

*Screech!~~*

The cry of the Vermilion Bird echoed throughout the Grand Welcoming Hall, and the people who were waiting to see the form of the technique became excited!

But soon, they became flabbergasted.

Where’s the technique?

They looked around but was unable to see anything suspicious at all.

"Look!"

Everyone heard a woman’s voice, and they looked at her, pointing at someone above the martial platform. They followed her pointed detection, and their pupils dilated while they felt disbelief in their hearts.

Their Ancestor was actually holding his head with his two hands, and his facial expression was twitching, slowly contorting into one of pain!

Ancestor Dian Alstreim clenched his teeth as he held his head in pain. This particular soul attack’s speed didn’t lose out to technique cast by a Ninth Stage Powerhouse. It was almost like it instantly crossed space to enter his soul sea.

By the time he reacted, it was already before his face. The soul barrier he had erected over his glabella shattered in an instant over the Vermilion Bird’s cry and the attack entered his soul sea to his regret, wreaking havoc like a berserk bird!

The Vermilion Bird’s cry continuously echoed throughout his soul sea, making it even difficult for him to concentrate, making him feel extraordinary pain. The enormous pain stemmed from his soul essence that was repeatedly attacked by the constant cry of the Vermilion Bird. It was as if two invisible birds were continuously screaming beside his two ears, trying to make his head explode.

However, he could easily break this technique if he were to use his essence energy that was at the Ninth Stage, Law Rune Stage, but he refused to do so! This was a battle exchange, and he refused to rely on anything else other than his soul to destroy this technique! Unless it was dangerous to his soul, he refused to give in!

Perhaps it was thanks to Conferred Queen’s Protector’s warning; he didn’t let out a single roar of pain. Even while feeling the pain make his soul tremble as if it was shaken to the ends of the earth and the sky, he didn’t let out a single groan.

’Oh? My soul force could actually compare to Peak-Level Supreme Soul Stage Experts, and yet, he’s withstanding it? Is he crazy... Even if he manages to break the technique, what if the damage is already done by then?’ Davis felt flabbergasted.

He knew that Ancestor Dian Alstreim was unable to withstand his attacks with just his soul, so he purposely downplayed his soul technique and only used seventy percent of the technique’s power. Even then, it should be more than enough to cause Ancestor Dian Alstreim to scream in pain!

To him, even if Ancestor Dian Alstreim screamed like a butchered pig, it wouldn’t be surprising at all, considering that people were almost never able to bear the pain that stemmed from the soul. At least, it was the case to the people whom he used his soul techniques on. They were never able to bear the pressure, much less pain.

’His will and conviction aren’t simple at all... I guess a person who manages to live for ten thousand years remains vulnerable but possesses resistance to pain stemming from the soul... Just their will to live and cultivate for a long time is perhaps stunning. After all, life would become immensely boring at one point, and this Ancestor Dian Alstreim is rumored to have no descendants...’

’His law-heart should be anything but ordinary...’ Davis mused.

On the elevated platform, Princess Isabella and the others had their eyes gleaming in pride. Even Nadia intently viewed with her golden eyes scrutinizing their battle. All of them were closely related to Davis, and the more Davis shined, the more they had their hearts filled with pride and awe.

Ancestor Dian Alstreim clenched his teeth and concentrated his soul force towards the center of his soul essence before it transformed into a tidal wave that spread to every corner of his soul sea! And just as he expected, there were invisible strands of tiny Vermillion Birds that continuously tortured him through exuding their death throes.

He finally exploded out with his dark red soul force swirling around him at this moment and erased every strand of little Vermillion Birds that he could find with immense concentration! However, the more he destroyed, the more he ended up finding hiding in the deepest corners of his soul sea.

He didn’t how much time had passed, but he finally broke the soul technique by using his own soul! He finally won!

Fortunately, he just ended up feeling a bit of pain, but if he was overwhelmed and didn’t find the root cause as well as the weakness of the technique, the consequences wouldn’t just be possessing an injured soul, but it might cause a backlash and cause him to faint.

However, he couldn’t help but inwardly curse at the same time, ’Fuck! It took me only ten percent of my soul force to cast those techniques, but it took me thirty-five percent of my soul force to break his single technique... What a monster!’

Ancestor Dian Alstreim’s eyes were slightly red, but it also flashed with excitement, ’You will definitely become...’

’... A Soul Emperor!’

"As expected! Fellow cultivator Dian Alstreim is really one of a kind with a tremendous will and exceptional law-heart. To be able to break my Incandescent Cry of the Vermilion requires an extremely powerful soul endurance and will. After all, the longer you’re being restricted, the easier it is to be suppressed and crushed under the weight of my powerful soul technique." Davis spoke in a deep voice, praising Ancestor Dian Alstreim.

"However, if we were to fight with our Law Rune Stage Cultivations, I doubt that I would last against your attacks. After all, I just entered the Law Rune Stage three years ago." He ruefully added before he shook his head.

Ancestor Dian Alstreim smiled as he shook his head. He just clasped his hand and respectfully said, "Protector is courteous, reserved, and powerful. My soul incredibly lacks when compared to yours. Perhaps, it just a matter of time before your Essence Gathering Cultivation surpasses mine. After all, unlike us, you are all from large Territories and would perhaps be returning soon."
