Divine Emperor of Death Chapter 1670 - Exploring Spaces

Before even Davis dealt with the eight hegemons of the wicked path, the Solitary Soul Avatar silently moved away without informing anyone and arrived at the hidden location in the Towering Cloud Hall Territory, the spatial tunnel that led to one of the twelve Vile Vortices in Earth.

Isabella already told him where it was, and he used that information to arrive there after searching for the entrance at the correct point for some time.

Even with his soul sense’s prowess that was at the fifth level of the ninth stage, he couldn’t find it but had to rely on his eyes and differentiation skills to find it. The entrance was hidden in open sight, camouflaged yet indifferentiable if one didn’t know how to focus on it. It gave the feeling of looking at normalcy when it was supposed to be a smart camouflage that was an illusion.

People wouldn’t even know where to look in this mountainous expanse, much less search for treasures this way, particularly at this spot, especially when he was at an altitude of four hundred and ninety kilometers. The sound of winds moving at an incredible speed ten kilometers above, capable of shredding eighth stage experts, sure did make him understand.

’No wonder no one managed to find the hidden entrance...’

After he entered the entrance and walked inside the artificial cave that seemed to have received no damage or dirt regardless of the passage of time, he came to assume that this place was powered by formations that he, again, couldn’t detect.

’Could it be these are all Immortal Grade Formations...?’

He wondered as he made his way to the spatial tunnel whereupon he saw peak-level spirit stones already placed in the power source, courtesy of Isabella. He activated it and was sucked into a spatial tunnel. A few seconds later, he was spewed out on a cloudy island.

He was dropped right onto a sandy surface but floated mid-air without falling on the ground. Not feeling dizzy, he maintained his caution as he looked around and noticed some transmigration stones laid out in abundance.

’Damn, it’s not special anymore if there’s many of them like this...’

Davis wondered why they could form in such amounts when it could strengthen and host the soul.

’Okay, strengthening a soul that isn’t even in the Nascent Soul Stage isn’t much of a big thing...’

Davis realized that he overrated this piece of stone that helped him transmigrate. It was said that one was born every few centuries or so, but it seems like they are in abundance in the Devil’s Sea Island, which made him feel that it was nothing more than a resource like a spirit stone, except it felt a bit special as it had the ability to store a mortal’s soul with no Soul Forging Cultivation.

Clara did say that she could only insert a strand of her soul inside it and became no more interested in this piece of stone that she left most of them where they were.

Still, the fact that he was here meant that he could enter it and was no longer repulsed. However, was it because he entered through the spatial tunnel in a formal way or because his cultivation was at the seventh stage and above?

After all, his Solitary Soul Avatar was at the Ninth Stage and didn’t possess the other two cultivation systems.

He didn’t know but wanted to find out as he moved out.

First, he explored the island but didn’t find anything out of the ordinary other than Peak-Level Spirit Stones and Transmigration Stones.

Davis decided to call the latter Soulstow Stones as calling them Transmigration Stones irked him since they were really just vessels that held souls and strengthened them.

Nevertheless, the fact that there were Peak-Level Spirit Stones here meant that there was a Vein Source and a lot of Vein Fragments, but none could be seen, making him wonder.

’Could they be ejected out of somewhere hidden in a periodical manner?’

He could only assume, but it didn’t bother, for he had many Peak-Level Spirit Stone Vein Sources from the massacre he committed.

Thirty-six Peak-Level Spirit Stone Vein Sources, two fire-attributed and another two earth-attributed, both of them from the spatial ring of the Domitian Family Patriarch and Zlatan Family Patriarch. These were unique resources that would allow one to enter the Ninth Stage without much problem as long as they had a Tier One Revolving Core.

As for High-Level Spirit Stone Vein Sources and Fragments, he had them in abundance, including fire and earth attributes.

Some of the fire attribute ones he gave to his mother, Sophie, and Niera, while some the earth attributes ones went to his father. Furthermore, Isabella already used up two earth-attributed Peak-Level Spirit Stone Vein Sources to strengthen Mira, bringing her level to High-Level Emperor Grade while her prowess was also a level higher, making it so that she could be considered a peak powerhouse.

Mira could be strengthened more, but it was too bad that such Peak-Level Elemental Spirit Stone Vein Sources and even normal ones were locked in Isabella’s Immortal Treasury. She could only see but not take it out unless she became an immortal herself. It was due to the restriction that if she died halfway, someone else could not use it unless they were worthy enough, like an actual immortal who possesses the Earth Dragon’s Blood.

That said, she could use Vein Fragments, but it lost its effect on Mira due to her prowess that reached the Peak-Level. Further increase always required a higher level of purity of heaven and earth energy. That’s why Nadia was also finding it difficult to increase her strength and needed Peak-Level Spirit Stone Vein Sources to do so.

After Davis explored the island to his curiosity, he left the Devil’s Sea and successfully appeared outside. However, a few objects were already flying near him, maintaining a respectful distance, not daring to come near him.

’Scout drones...’

Davis rolled his eyes.

He directly disappeared from their vision when taking a step forward and appeared above the Indus Valley, traveling thousands of kilometers in less than a second.

To his expectations, the barrier didn’t stop him, making him understand that cultivation at the seventh stage and above was a requirement to traverse these spaces. However, whether it allowed him to enter because he used the spatial tunnel from the Devil Sea or some other reason is still unknown.

If there was a mark placed on him, he would’ve known, but he senses nothing like that.

Furthermore, the drones here roaming in the skies spotted him.

All these drones belonged to China, so he could see that they had a monopoly over these places, the Two Vile Vortices and the one within the country that connected to the Grand Sea Continent.

’The one in that secret temple seems made by someone else since I can sense the formations. Is it someone who managed to carve a pathway from this Third Layer to the Second Layer...?’

Nevertheless, looking at the buzzing drones that were annoying, he shook his head.

’So they won’t really want to enter the cultivation world. Well, it’s the xianxia dream after all...!’

On one side, Davis felt like allowing them, but then again, he didn’t know what kind of change they would bring or fail to bring a change and end up becoming massacred altogether. However, since he conquered the Grand Sea Continent and brought it under an alliance that maintained peace, he refused to help these fellows who would obviously not be content and court death by inevitably offending him.

After all, once they gained power, it was a given that they would try to conquer his Grand Sea Continent, and he would have to kill them to teach them a lesson of the cultivation world. If they couldn’t, they would try to conquer through culture.

Somehow, he could see that coming from a long distance.

But still, he couldn’t help but want to give them a chance, but not at the moment.

With the Calamity Light’s crisis inbound, every move he made, even though powerful and overwhelming to his opponents, made him feel laughable and futile.

Were his actions going to change the end result?

Just a mere scan with his Death God Eyes in the First Layer told him that they were all going to die within a year or two, although some did survive, like Tia and a few other members of his family, meaning that he or someone else did find a way for them to live. Or perhaps, they were enslaved?

As for his women, nobody died soon, but there were changes in their lifespan, actually having diminished a lot compared to the lifespans he had seen before. He mused that this change actually happened while he was asleep. Otherwise, he would’ve picked up on it sooner.

Did something fate-changing happen while he was asleep? He didn’t know.

Nevertheless, that’s why he was here, to find a way to help him and his family escape the crisis if things truly were to go south!
