Divine Emperor of Death Chapter 1222 Threats?

Davis’s expression was ugly while his entire being felt a chill. He felt that it was almost as if something had severed the connection he had with the outside! He had lost the general sense of direction over Evelynn’s location even though they had their soul marks placed on each other while also making him not even able to tell if she was dead or alive.

It was different than the time where he hides with Dark Concealing Shroud Art. Even if Evelynn becomes unable to tell his location, she still would be able to tell that he was alive, but at this moment, it appeared to be no longer the case.

Evelynn would’ve felt the same as him and freaked out right now, perhaps even become injured as she could’ve been rudely awakened out of her cultivation session by this matter.

"[email protected]#$%^&*&^%$#@!"

Curses flowed out of his mouth as he began to activate Fallen Heaven’s life-like energy to attract the luminescent viridian lightning bolts so that he could return to the Lightning Sea and reestablish the connection he had with the Solitary Soul Avatar and Evelynn. His connection with the soul body in the Purple Guest Palace was also severed, making him immensely worried.

Just as the luminescent viridian lightning bolts began to be attracted out of the Lightning Sea as they shot towards him, a worried voice echoed.

"Watch out!"

Davis froze and instantly stopped using his soul force to conjure the life-like energy while he felt a sudden surge of temperature in the atmosphere!

Crimson flames shot past him from the side and befell the luminescent viridian lightning bolts that shot towards him to swirl around him. However, at this moment, the strands of luminescent viridian lightning bolts were all burned and made to dissipate by the tremendous waves of crimson flames that came out of nowhere.

Davis’s eyes went wide in response as he noticed the crimson flames’ similarity, but to think that there was a person alive in this nearly impenetrable zone? What kind of place had he stepped into?

He turned to look aside while his body remained stiff when he saw a black-robed man drift towards him in midair, his posture absolutely straight and dignified.

Davis didn’t make a move as he felt ninth stage undulations from this person. The crimson flames he had released to finish off the luminescent viridian lightning bolts was absolutely below the ninth stage as he had seemed to be worried that he would die from the backlash.

The person casually landed beside him, but there was a solemn expression on his face as he looked at the Lightning Sea.

"This is strange... These luminescent viridian lightning bolts never reacted out of place like this..."

While the black-robed man wondered, Davis strangely reacted as he took a step behind in caution while he couldn’t help but think, ’He didn’t see me using my Supreme Soul Stage soul force?’

The black-robed man with the hood turned his head towards him, causing Davis to stop. Davis saw a smile appear on the black-robed person’s expression before the latter shook his head.

"Whatever... I’m glad you are alive, fellow Alstreim. I know you feel confused. We all did when we were swallowed by the void."

"Swallowed by the void...?" Davis uttered in doubt.

*BzzzZ!~*

"Die!" A decrepit voice echoed!

Red lightning abruptly flashed in the skies as peak-level eighth stage undulations flared like a tide from the attack, making Davis narrow his eyes as he saw it suddenly rush towards him. Just when he was about to make a move, a wall of crimson flames abruptly erupted before him with tremendous might that made his eyes narrow deeply again, but it defended him from the red lightning bolts as they struck the crimson flames and dissipated into thin air.

"Since you’re here, leave your life behind!~"

A cold voice erupted from the black-robed man.

Davis couldn’t see because of the wall of crimson flames that impeded his eyesight, but he could imagine that there was an opponent on the other side who tried to kill him. His eyes became ruthless as he moved to the side to engrave the other party’s image into his mind when the crimson flames further blazed from his side as it traveled to the skies.

The crimson flames covered tens of kilometers as it struck the opponent.

Davis tried to watch, but before the immense might of this black-robed person, he could keep his eyes open at this close range. A few seconds later, the crimson flames gradually receded, causing Davis to open his eyes and search for the enemy who had attacked them.

"Using blood essence to escape...? Hmph! Consider that it’s your lucky day because I have a junior to take care of!" The black-robed man coldly uttered before he turned to look at Davis.

He removed his hood, and a face with handsome facial features appeared adorned with those familiar blonde eyebrows and long hair that cascaded down to his waist.

Davis’s eyes were wide in shock even though he had felt it might be the case when he noticed the familiar crimson flames.

The man smiled as he noticed Davis’s expression before he shook his head, "Alright, let’s not stand here. It’s dangerous since you almost got killed in an ambush, so let’s go back to our base, and there, there will be our people who will explain whatever they know to you."

Ninth stage essence energy began to cover him without his permission, but Davis didn’t resist as he more or less knew that the other party wouldn’t hurt him because of a particular reason, not because they were both Alstreim’s. They then hovered before they took off in a direction at a tremendous speed.

Davis still reacted as if he was shocked as he kept his mouth agape, but inwardly, he was thinking about something else. He had no idea what was going on here, especially as to why there was another Alstreim Family’s Ninth Stage Powerhouse here!

He contemplated for a moment before he decided.

’Well, hiding and knowing what is happening here comes first, and I can’t afford to reveal the life-like powers I have in front of this powerful person and the people I’m going to meet. I’m sure that even if something happened to my soul body, nothing happened to the Solitary Soul Avatar as the soul essence we share is different but intrinsically the same. I’m assured that the Solitary Soul Avatar knows what to do in this case because we are the same...’

Davis felt that the Solitary Soul Avatar would inform Evelynn and the others of the abnormality, but the messaging talismans the Solitary Soul Avatar had with it were not going to work; at least, to work at such a long-range was impossible. He knew that Solitary Soul Avatar’s current location was the Burning Phoenix Ridge Territory’s entrance from the Dual Lotus Manor’s side, but priorities were priorities.

Searching for Shirley and Ellia comes later while protecting the people he had had with him comes first, so he knew that the Solitary Soul Avatar would definitely abandon the quest to find them to return to the Purple Guest Palace.

Nevertheless, a delay of few minutes until the Solitary Soul Avatar arrives at the Falling Snow Sect for the messaging talisman to connect is inevitable, and he felt immensely frustrated that he could not inform the current situation to her at this very moment.

’Just keep your calm for a few minutes, Evelynn. Please don’t be rash and notify everyone else of my sudden disappearance or death if you misunderstood...’ He inwardly wished, but he knew he was asking for the impossible.

The last time he was ’gravely injured’ in front of her, she almost went berserk and killed Lucas out of sheer fury because he had been hiding near at that time. Now, it was unknown what she would do because she had no way to see him now.

Perhaps, the soul body in the Purple Guest Palace was in a coma right now, or it was like him, just lost connection with him, but soul bodies didn’t work that way as far as he knew. If it lost connection with him, then it was bound to disappear after its soul force entirely dissipates, but the way his connection was severed, it was like something else, entirely different than what he had experienced so far before.

Making Evelynn misunderstand wasn’t his intent, but the soul marks they had placed on each other, which was meant to mark their special relationship and the trust they possessed with each other, had now backfired on them.

’Oh fuck! If my connection was severed, then Nadia’s connection with her energy body should’ve also been severed!’

"Nadia, what about Sophie!? Have you lost your connection with your Dark-Tail Doppelganger!?" He inwardly echoed in his soul sea in panic.

"Yes, I have lost contact with my doppelganger the same as Master..."

Davis’s heart fell. If that were the case, then Sophie would be all alone in the Dark Thunder Island with only Starcy, the Purple Star Flame, to support her in this mess, and because he had panicked initially, he had failed to forget Nadia’s side!

"However, since my twin-tails didn’t return as I still only have one tail, I muse that my doppelganger remains alive and well. According to master’s instructions, since we encountered danger, I, and the doppelganger would adhere to your words and take Sophie back to the Alstreim Family without fail."

Davis’s body that went stiff, promptly relaxed. The urge to overly praise Nadia welled up within him that if she was beside him, he felt like he might’ve kissed her as he felt extremely happy that she was with him at this moment!

Otherwise, he might’ve begun to blame himself for leaving Sophie out there all alone.
