Divine Emperor of Death Chapter 2265: Regrouping

Chapter 2265: Regrouping

After clearing the northern part of the Fifty-Two Territories, Davis met up with Myria who seemed to have also cleared the southern part after leading those Immortal Vacuous Beasts to the many Killing Spirit Formations she set up.

After witnessing the magnificence and usability of Spirit Formations that initially used soul force before using the heaven and earth energy to function, Davis wanted to badly learn them.

If he had learned them before, he felt like he wouldnt have much trouble and didnt have the need to exhaust himself like Myria but it was not like she didnt exhaust herself each day to build these formations, so he knew that the usage during battle was still limited.

But still, he wanted to learn as the usability for preparations was high.

However, since Myria, or rather Ellia had already given a wide range of Spirit Formations to Yotan and Threelotus, he didnt ask Myria to teach him.

As for Yotan and Threelotus, the former was with him after having successfully hidden from the Vacuous Beasts. After all, Yotan was in the Spirit Races Territories to have an eye on the Spirit Immortal. It was impossible for her to return amidst the devastating attack of the Immortal Vacuous Beasts, so she hid underground.

Davis praised her for following his words and not getting into danger.

After all, since these Vacuous Beasts were said to be mindless by Myria back when they failed to enter the Fifty-Two Territories in the first activity, he simply felt hiding people in an underground bunker-like location might do the job, thinking that those Vacuous Beasts wont pry further unless they sensed undulations.

He thought they were like those savage beasts found in the Poison Rift Valleys rifts.

His fundamental thinking was spot-on and thats why the Burning Phoenix Ridge had also entered underground, not to mention the Soul Palace, Jade Lotus Valley, and the Glorious Pill Palace. Some powers had mini-realms, so they werent worried at all.

However, the Burning Phoenix Ridge while retreating underground was almost hunted down by three Vacuous Beasts. Such incidents were also common, causing the Vacuous Beasts to find the ones who escaped underground to devour them.

All in all, it was a race for time. Those who escaped remained safe and those who were caught or unable to escape ended up being massacred, exploding into a fountain of blood, or simply swallowed by the Vacuous Beasts whereupon they were instantly disintegrated.

Nonetheless, now that he had the Nine-Treasured Immortal Ordeal Palace, Davis felt like he could learn many things, including Spirit Formations, in a short amount of time.

Are you alright?

Davis asked Myria who had her head slightly lowered after meeting up and stating that they cleared the Fifty-Two Territories of Immortal Vacuous Beasts wherever they could find.

His words caused Myria to look up as some light returned to her eyes, What did you say the death toll was?

About a hundred billion in the righteous path... alone... Daviss voice became low.

The death toll in the righteous path had reached more than a hundred billion. This number was reached not after scouring the life and death of each individual but based on the number of living places destroyed. After all, hundreds of cities and thousands of towns were trampled to death and not a single survivor remained.

The population of these cities and towns was taken into account and calculated by the All-Seeing Emperor and given to him. This information was not released to the public as it was still unofficial and horrifying to be given out.

Myrias body quivered ever so lightly as she recalled the scenes in the wicked path Territories. It was even more gruesome as no one was there to protect them while thousands of Immortal Vacuous Beasts rampaged.

Although the population wasnt at the trillion-mark like the righteous path, she felt that tens of billions wouldve died in the wicked path, which only added a small number to the statistic of billions but still a humongous tragedy.

Youre not at fault. That bastard is one who should pay for this...

Is that worry you have for me? Myrias voice appeared amused as she turned to look at him.

Im already used to this craziness and its not like I dont commit slaughter either. It was just, its been a long while since I encountered this kind of slaughter done because of me, again... that I find myself a bit flustered. That bastard thinks that he can break my will but theres nothing to worry about.

Myrias voice became calm and cold but Davis couldnt ease his worries from hearing it.

Back then, Myria surprisingly sided with him when he massacred millions of people. Now he understood that she was speaking from painful experience as it was unknown how many she had to kill to survive from unjustified persecution.

She said that there was nothing to worry about but it was unknown how many times she cast this curse on herself to stay stable by pure force.

Ive been too harsh on her... Davis couldnt help but think.

Now he could understand why Myria was so pissed and angered at everything when she groggily reawakened in Ellia and almost committed a slaughter, having every kind of justified reason to do so as she couldve felt that the entire world was against her.

She had been through a lot, to say the least, not knowing whom to trust, perhaps even now.

Moreover, he also understood why she couldnt stop herself from taking revenge because she had no other choice than to do so. It was either her enemies or her living under the same sky. One of those bastards, Fraser Herrion, the strongest one even came to endanger himself in order to hunt her. She couldnt stop even if she wanted to because the end result was demise or perhaps even worse than that.

Back then, he had so righteously demanded to leave Ellia out of her maddening urge for revenge, but now he couldnt help but be embarrassed about it.

Im more worried about your heavenly tribulation.

Myria suddenly uttered towards him, They were the immortal phoenixes of the immortal inheritances, werent they? What are you going to do with the unnecessary karmic burden at this moment?

You think thats unwarranted? Davis gawked at her worry but his gaze looked dejected.

Back then, when he had taken the soul essences of the Fire Phoenix Mistress and the Ice Phoenix Mistress, he had wanted to repay them for helping Shirley revive him, save Clara unknowingly and help Shirley obtain their complete inheritances by reviving them when he was an Immortal King so that the karmic burden placed on him would be less or almost next to nil.

However, with the situation turning dire, he had no choice but to revive and use them.

Even after they were revived, they simply didnt escape like the other immortals nor kill him but decided to help him, making him feel rather sorrowful over their forceful removal done by the Fifty-Two Territories Grand Formation or perhaps, even the world master.

He couldnt help but feel like he let them down, especially when they reached out their hands to grab his with hopeful eyes. Freeebnvel.cm.

Needless for you and your family. Myria nodded her head, You all couldve simply retreated and waited for the world master to have made a move, you know.

Yeah, then Im probably done for as well, not to mention you who couldve been cursed at the very least. Davis shrugged with an unamused expression, I would rather take things into my own hand and control it than allow a bigger person to regulate the board were struggling in.

We dont know that for sure but whats obvious is youre paying the price for it now.

Come on, Saintess. Let me be a Saint for once, no? I cant let you take all the glory of saving people, can I?

Davis gestured and spoke in an annoyed tone as though he was really saddened by her hogging all the glory, causing Myria to look away as she trembled, silently giggling.

However, her trembling suddenly stopped, her eyes wide as though she had caught herself doing something wrong. She returned her gaze and cast a deep look at him before turning around and leaving.

Ill create a Protective Spirit Formation thatll slightly help you in your heavenly tribulation. Just you wait...

Only her cold voice remained behind, leaving him in a dumbfounded state.
