Divine Emperor of Death Chapter 2376 Ambushing

Chapter 2376 Ambushing

Three flying boats flew in a triangular formation at a similar altitude.

Towards the distance was the presence of giant mountains composed of immortal grade ores, their surface sometimes covered with thorny shrubs and red trees. A valley seemed to pierce through those mountains, leading to the other end. However, the pathway was definitely not short.

The flying boats gradually entered this space.

The valley seemed to be surrounded by the mist of the dawn. It was thick and dense, almost looking like foam.

While flying through the valley, the cloud mist lifted, gradually revealing the dull patches of red glowing far beyond the cliffs, indicating them to be volcanic ashes that seemed relatively fresh. This valley was indeed surrounded by volcanoes, one that seemed active and could also be home to many lifeforms of fire attribute but with the nature of the mist being revealed, the danger of traversing this region became known.

But despite the danger of volcanic eruption, the flying boats continued to move.

’They really entered, not knowing that their demise is just a few kilometers away...’

Following them in the air was a black-robed man. His smirk only grew profound as his targets seemed to be near the point of ambush that he had set up.

The flying boats slowed down under the advent of the misty atmosphere, taking a few more minutes for them to arrive at the point of ambush.

"Third brother, do you really want the Minn Family’s Young Mistress? She had recently married, you know..."

"But I also heard that she had a misunderstanding with her husband on the wedding day and still hasn’t consummated their marriage. I can still steal and make her mine, hehe~"

"That’s my brother! Ahaaha~" The second brother, Fregor, patted Sregor’s shoulders as he roared with laughter.

Meanwhile, the first brother, Gregor, shook his head, seemingly unamused of their appetite for women. But at this moment, his brows couldn’t help but furrow.

"Don’t worry. We’ll have our Dark Sky Triad move tomorrow to bring you your favored bride on a silver platter. If the Minn Family people find out about our actions, then we’ll threaten them with the things they’ve asked us to do. Since they don’t know our true identities and lack evidence, they wouldn’t be able to do anything against us-."

"Silence..."

Fregor had just been explaining to Sregor his thoughts with a wide smirk when Gregor hushed them, causing them to become confused, their heads turning to look at a brown-colored flying boat in the distance that was approaching them with a swift speed.

"Fuck! Who would be so stupid enough to travel this fast in this foggy atmosphere!" Fregor cursed.

However, the first brother, Gregor, was calm as he steered the flying boat to the side. Their triangular formation collapsed, causing the wind resistance and spatial pressure to increase, requiring more fuel to traverse.

Nonetheless, it would be nothing if it were just for a short time.

As the distance closed, they saw that the flying boat was amber-brown in color.

"First brother, let’s shoot them down!" Sregor’s expression was fuming with anger over this sudden interruption.

"Enough!"

However, Gregor also fumed, "Pay attention! Right now, we’re leaving as the people of the Ember Skyworld Mercenaries having just finished escorting a figurehead from a Mid Immortal Grade Power."

"Uh, yes..."

Sregor dropped his head in instant defeat while Fregor consoled him.

But at this moment, everyone’s eyes widened as they saw the amber-brown colored flying boat swivel towards them.

"Fuck! They’re trying to ram into us!" The second brother, who had just calmed down, shouted again.

Realizing the sudden change in the situation, Gregor knew that something was wrong. If that flying boat rammed into their flying boat, he didn’t know what kind of destruction it would cause as he couldn’t tell the grade of the ship properly in this foggy atmosphere. Quickly, he turned to look towards the Level Nine Immortal protector, who still appeared calm.

"Gunnar, sink that boat if it doesn’t stop."

Gunnar nodded without hesitation while Gregor returned his gaze, looking through the protective barrier of their flying boat that activated.

"Fellow cultivator, if you continue to fly in our altitude, especially towards us, then you leave us with no choice."

However, his warning already came too late.

The flying boat was already near, about the crash into the barrier.

But abruptly, a part of the flying boat receded as a black-robed immortal flew out. His undulations buzzed, surging into an extreme wave of flames as it flew towards the flying boat, engulfing it.

*Sssz!~*

The flying boat’s outer armor quickly melted while it appeared to lose altitude.

Looking at the flying boat incinerating, Gunnar narrowed his brows. This flying boat itself only seemed to be at top quality Early Immortal Grade, matching the durability of a Level Three Immortal in prowess, so the flying boat not posing a threat to them made sense. However, his senses could feel no life within it.

Could it be that they were incinerated by his Level Nine Immortal Stage prowess before they could even scream out?

Just as he was wondering, he sensed a faint undulation behind him, causing him to turn to look back.

On the other hand, Gregor, who witnessed this scene from inside his flying boat, possessed the same doubt as Gunnar, wondering who exactly would do this.

’The Minn Family...?’ He thought, thinking if it was some kind of warning.

"...!"

However, his scalp couldn’t help but turn numb when he turned looked around, spotting something glowing in an inconspicuous corner of the deck as he sensed its undulations becoming berserk.

"Watch out!"

Before his scream could enter the ears of the others, a blinding light filled their vision.

*Booom!!!~*

The flying boat was blown into smithereens and, with it, caused a lot of destruction as the flames engulfed the flying boat towards its right. As for the flying boat on the left, it had turned right to ram into the unknown flying boat so that they could aid the main flying boat.

But now, it was blasted into the distance, lodging itself into a mountain. Its barrier had burst, unable to withstand the explosion. However, a surge of lava erupted from the hole, engulfing the flying boat in a swirl while its passengers, who consisted of mortals and a few Early Stage Immortals, ended up being burned into ashes.

Since they were injured and dizzy from the crash, they were unable to do anything.

On the other hand, Gunnar became shocked. His immortal energy surged as he waved his hand, quickly suppressing the explosion. Since the explosion’s might was just at Level Five Immortal Stage, he was successfully able to quell it.

But by then, it was already too late.

His expression turned unsightly as all three flying boats of Mid Immortal Grade were destroyed, the scenery appearing like there were no survivors left.

The only thing he could see was the surge of a terrifying energy blaze in front of him.

There were three silhouettes encased in a barrier. Above them was a brown-robed old man standing with a slightly hunched back. His black eyes flashed with a peering light as he swiveled his head around, seemingly looking at the status of the aftermath.

"Old master!"

Before him, Gunnar fell to his knees and kowtowed, his body quivering in fear.

He had failed to protect Gregor, Fregor, and Sregor, although they were still alive, so it was unknown what kind of punishment he would receive.

Unbeknown to them, an assassin lurked in the distance, hiding behind a red tree as he kept watch over what was happening.

’As expected, they have an immortal soul protecting them... but to think that they had the soul of an Immortal King protecting them... Looks like their grandpa really cares about them a lot, especially the first brother Gregor...’

Davis looked at that immortal soul appearing tied to Gregor as it extended out of his body through the back of his head.

’It seems like they are still connected. I wonder what kind of technique is this...?’

Davis wondered, but his lips couldn’t help but curve into a victorious smile.

Founder Alstreim Windstorm not only gifted him immortal crystals, but he also gave life-saving talismans, one of which he had just used to blow up the array of flying boats flying in a formation. It was a Mid Immortal Grade Life-Saving Talisman called the Incinerating Flame Crushing Wave Talisman.

While the flying boat he used as Mo Tian ended up being used as a distraction, he had armed the Incinerating Flame Crushing Wave Talisman with his soul body and entered the opening that had been created in the bandit’s flying boat and closed in towards the triplets as much as possible before blowing up while Nadia’s doppelganger had already retreated by that time.

Basically, he used his soul body as a suicide bomber as he wanted to eliminate everyone in an instant. As for karmic sin, he could gather it while still being concealed, deceiving the eyes of that Level Nine Immortal who was the only plain threat Davis had in his mind.

But luck would have it that there was a damned ancestor protecting his targets in the nick of time while everyone else except that Level Nine Immortal servant called Gunnar turned into ashes.

Although there was a bit of pain left in his soul as he lost a percentage of his soul essence, it felt like a prick from a needle, not at all worrying him.

Nonetheless, as far as Davis considered, he won the battle with him, eliciting a response from the protective immortal soul, so the only thing left for him to do was to wait for the immortal soul to disappear so that he could eliminate the bandit triplets.

*Bzzz!~*

"Die!"

However, the oppressive might of an Immortal King abruptly surged as the browned-robed old man unleashed a palm towards a direction, causing Davis’s eyes to narrow.
