Chapter 2096: Abstract Ceiling
I wont lie to you. I want to separate you from Ellia as soon as possible, but if you keep helping me, I will help you get your revenge even if I am forced to, but for me to help you, I must surpass you first. You can laugh that its impossible or utter that I wont be able to, but thats the only way out for me. If I cant...
Davis emphasized a specific part before he shrugged, Guess Ill just... die.
Myrias gaze was entirely on Davis as she listened. When he shrugged, Myria still didnt reply, keeping her silence before she turned around, looking into the distance.
If thats your resolve, I wont say anything to your obvious actions that court death.
Davis smiled. It wasnt like he didnt understand her thoughts. He was already in the gray zone for having Fallen Heaven. So what would happen if he started plundering heavenly lightning?
Without much of a doubt, his tribulation was going to get only harder and harder. However, Davis suddenly recalled that strange phenomenon during the Heavenly Pill Tribulation, or so he just now termed it.
Wait a minute. Can you tell me what that heavenly lightning drag-
Its better to not talk about it, lest you risk becoming more burdened.
...
Myria quickly interrupted Davis, causing him to blink before he thought.
Is that what she meant by that the heavens had locked onto me...?
He contemplated a bit but couldnt tell if he was locked on or not since he felt nothing strange.
Oh well. Shall I head home and recover before starting to absorb heavenly lightning?
Davis grinned before he flew off. Myria also flew but instead of continuing her search, she flew side by side with him, momentarily confusing him, but he didnt pay much heed to it, thinking that she saw enough for the day.
After all, he brought down a Destructive Heavenly Tribulation, openly plundered from it, and successfully concocted a Spirit-Tier Pill. Such a feat; if the entire human race heard it, they would become crazy.
On the way, he suddenly spoke, but his voice echoed in the very depths of his soul, his soul essence.
Fallen Heaven, youre not actually suppressing yourself, right?
...
Right?
Fallen Heaven stayed silent for a few moments before its hoarse, in-differentiable voice echoed out.
So you found out.
I see.
Davis uttered with a bland expression. His soul had already gotten stronger, and considering Fallen Heavens prowess which should be four levels above his base prowess, it shouldve already reached a few levels higher in immortal level but didnt in reality, causing him to doubt.
However, he didnt speak anymore, continuing to fly back to the Alstreim Family.
Are you not going to ask why like you would? However, in the resounding silence, Fallen Heavens hoarse voice echoed again.
Davis couldnt help but lightly smile.
Well, Myria and I already arrived at the conclusion that we would be forced to ascend by the laws of this world when our base prowess reaches the fifth level of the Ninth Stage, so theres no use bickering about it.
Mhm. Ive been suppressing my prowess since I could feel a ceiling. If I climb above it, rather than worrying about being forced to ascend, Im afraid that I might get sealed again.
Daviss gaze became solemn as it wasnt like had hadnt foresaw this development. It was also one of the reasons he hesitated at the thought of ascending. However, his gaze was full of resolve as ever.
Dont worry. I promise I wont let that happen even if I have to die.
...
But, I see. Davis continued, So this ascendance is a type of karmic enforcement... locking the limit whereupon the karmic reaction placed beforehand reacts to the phenomenon or an entity that breaks the limit. Ive read this in a few old records about Formations using Karma Laws. Spatial Laws are also used here for spatial transportation, and perhaps, even Time Laws, although Im not sure.
Crazy... this master of this world seems just too omnipotent...
Davis shook his head, keeping his spirits high from feeling a true existential crisis. A figure who could seal Fallen Heaven probably at its prime? How could he even hope to defy such a being?
However, he decided long back that he would face it when it appeared and not tremble at that thought, failing to do anything at the moment.
I will do all I can do before that fateful day... However, I shouldnt keep looking up, lest I fall for some random cheap tricks or even...
Davis suspiciously glanced at Myria for a moment.
Although their cooperative relationship was becoming better, there was no saying what would happen if some other matter or entity popped up to convince or even force Myria to take action against him. He was even secretly prepared for such a scenario.
...
However, his gaze was noticed by Myria as her eyes curved, shooting him a bright smile.
Oh... its Ellia...
Daviss lips unwittingly widened, understanding why Myria would follow him. It was Ellias free time, probably. Their speed simultaneously slowed down as they took their time returning, even taking a roundabout route as they entered through the Territory Gate to travel instead of breaking the Territory Fog.
Both of their intent was obvious.
To spend more time with each other. However, they were still meters apart, maintaining a respectful distance. Nonetheless, it didnt take even ten minutes for them to return to the Grand Alstreim City even though they traveled unhurried.
As Davis watched the bustling city that increasingly became prosperous, a bright smile filled his face. He could see countless people having smiles on their faces, occasionally chitchatting about him while also chattering away about the rapid growth of the Alstreim Family.
Millions of blonde-haired people walking around was a blinding sight, alright, but the smiles on their faces said one thing: peace and rapid development had arrived.
There was a huge influx of resources for the Alstreim Family. He had heard that there was even a trading town set up a few hundred kilometers from the eastern border, which apparently was already turning into a city. Nonetheless, with a huge quantity of resources entering the Grand Alstreim City every day, people had enough to buy, even for a low price.
Undoubtedly, the Alstreim Family had entered a state of harmonious growth. However, that was only because of his presence, and it would soon turn into infighting anyway. He wasnt interested in witnessing such a thing while he was sure that it would be taken care of by Ancestor Dian Alstreim.
However, the most important thing was outside intervention.
Ever since he massacred the Emperor Sword Sect and the Vast Sky Emperor Palace, nobody had attacked the Alstreim Family or even dared to roam around in covert. It went on to say what kind of power terror held in peoples hearts, allowing the Alstreim Family to grow unchecked while also suppressing the infighting that would normally continue for thousands of years.
In any case, he was glad that Ancestor Dian Alstreim and his mothers wish could come true. The Alstreim Family was undoubtedly on the path to becoming an apex hegemon and could defend itself from the powers of the Fifty-Two Territories even if he left.
*Boom!~*
Abruptly, a huge explosion resounded in the central area of the Grand Alstreim City, causing Daviss brows to narrow as he raised his head. However, his pupils dilated the moment he saw that the eruption was right on the living floor of the Purple Guest Palace, space twisting as it swallowed the debris.
