Divine Emperor of Death Chapter 2576 Accompanied?

Chapter 2576 Accompanied?

"Pfft- Ahahaha~"

Mystic Diviner Hailac burst into a fit of laughter. Her melodious voice echoed throughout the area that people would wonder if she hadn’t just screamed for her life, causing them to be taken aback by her quick recovery, but on second thought, they could understand.

As disciples of the Aurora Cloud Gate who went on dangerous missions, they were prepared to die but not die a meaningless death. They were not even battling for the treasure, yet they were going to die?

That was not a death they were willing to accept.

Besides, Mystic Diviner Hailac, although she boasted a high prowess, she really was not a martial cultivator. She was mostly someone who peered into the veil of the heavens, not bothering to spend time battling other than knowing self-defense methods and having many protective treasures to count.

She was perfectly in her right to scream for help, and no one looked down on her, especially since she was a woman.

"You’re such an interesting and calculative person... Emperor of Death. I thought Divergents were supposed to be scary and avoided at all costs as they’re said to be insane, especially as a Mystic Diviner, but here I am now, infected with your karma. Who knows what lies ahead for me but since I owe you one... I understand..."

"To become free of this karmic binding, I’ll make it free for Tia to learn more divination arts as much as possible~"

"Excellent."

Having been able to save costs with just a single move, Davis was pleased with himself as he nodded at her.

He flew back to his people and looked at the headless carcass before them. His narrowed eyes checked on its life and saw that it was dead. However, he couldn’t find any significant amount of soul essence, which made him wonder if it was somehow related to the Unfettered Gargantuan Ice Fiend somehow.

No one knew how it looked, so he couldn’t help but turn to look at Ellia.

Ellia was deep in thought, but as she sensed his gaze, she shook her head.

"Impossible... it can’t be..."

"Is it an avatar of some kind?" Davis raised his brows.

"Could be." Ellia nodded, "It has executed its divine technique and split into ten thousand halves or..."

"... or what?"

"It’s accompanied by a female Unfettered Gargantuan Ice Fiend... It’s a mysterious lifeform, so not much is known about them, but it is said when a male Unfettered Gargantuan Ice Fiend and a female Unfettered Gargantuan Ice Fiend fuse, they split into a thousand smaller versions of themselves that retain the same power."

Davis went flabbergasted while Natalya gawked.

"What the...? Where do these lifeforms even come from?"

She had heard of mothers of many races giving birth to many children, even ten at once, but it was her first time hearing two opposite gender not even have coitus but fuse to propagate into many beings of the same kind.

"That’s like asking where humans came from~" Ellia shrugged, "We’re also mysterious beings that don’t conform to the restriction placed upon us by heaven and earth, unlike magical beasts and spirits who are limited within their attributes. Moreover, we can propagate better than any race combined and have the advantage in the numbers."

"..." Natalya went speechless, but Davis couldn’t help but laugh.

"Haha, you couldn’t be any more right, Ellia."

"Even if it has split into many beings, our mission, in essence, hasn’t changed. To eliminate the Unfettered Gargantuan Ice Fiend but, most importantly, stop the source from imploding."

"Yes, something terrible would happen if we do not achieve that within an unknown time limit, and with a Divergent like you having arrived here, that factor might change at any moment."

Niel Bladeheart and Mystic Diviner Hailac approached them, causing Davis to blink at their bloodied figure. tiknovel.com

"Are you two fine?"

"Not a problem."

Niel Bladeheart rubbed his bloodied chest as though scratching an itch while Mystic Diviner Hailac clenched her teeth.

"I can do more than just scream. Bring me a captured Unfettered Gargantuan Ice Fiend, and I can cast an offensive karmic technique that would kill more than half of those in an instant."

"Mhm?" Davis raised his brows, "What merit do I have in doing that?"

"The mission contribution points will all belong to you, while I would have the right to its carcasses."

Davis turned to look at the Unfettered Gargantuan Ice Fiend’s still body once again, surveying it with his soul sense. He still couldn’t believe that its prowess was at Level Four Immortal King Stage, making him wonder if he was going to encounter thousands of them beyond this point before he turned to look at her again.

"Does this carcass have something to do with divining?"

"Smart." Mystic Diviner Hailac deeply smiled, "You could say that, but it also fears us because we Mystic Diviners have a karmic aura around us which possesses a fatal threat to it. Otherwise, I read from ancient records that it could just keep escaping by splitting itself in half every time it is killed... Most probably, its main body is also probably a split half that escaped a hunt from time immemorial..."

"I see... so it’s that lifeform’s weakness..."

Davis nodded. Normally, Mystic Diviner Hailac shouldn’t be able to kill such a powerful creature with her prowess, but if karmic attacks were its weakness, then he agreed that she should be able to grievously wound and suppress that creature from escaping.

"I want ten percent of the carcasses for Tia’s training and fifty percent of its core for cultivation needs."

Davis bent and abruptly pierced the Unfettered Gargantuan Ice Fiend’s severed head with its hand and brought out a fist-sized icy crystal that appeared cloudy yet lustrous.

? "Emperor of Death..." Mystic Diviner Hailac became a bit embarrassed, "... the core is more important than their body parts."

"Then for the core, twenty-five percent would do and thirty percent for the carcasses."

"Deal!"

With Davis decreasing his ask price, Mystic Diviner Hailac’s empty eyes brightened as she instantly latched onto his mountain-like shoulder, metaphorically.

Davis also smiled back. The woman in front of him was an almost peerless beauty that people couldn’t help but possess goodwill when facing her, and Davis was no different. However, he refused to reveal or use all his cards at the moment and therefore felt it was better if he made use of Mystic Diviner Hailac’s offensive karmic technique instead of using his own and exposing some of his trump cards.

With them having decided on a course of action, they entered the treasure area.

The icy fog had already cleared while they were discussing their business transaction, and many disciples had already made their way deep.

Except for Niel Bladeheart, all other top thirty true disciples, including the Tyriels, Waine Might, Olas Windfall, and Jei Sealan, all entered the treasure area as soon as the little Unfettered Gargantuan Ice Fiend struck them. They didn’t even bother to wait and see and rushed towards the treasure area to obtain what they wanted.

Mystic Diviner Hailac was naturally incensed about this matter as she was a support cultivator and not a martial cultivator. For the people who invited her to divine the opening of this treasure area to not protect her or even act like protecting her when it mattered the most, she was incensed beyond compare.

Nonetheless, with the coast clear after they had eliminated that single Unfettered Gargantuan Ice Fiend was lying in wait for them in the icy fog, they quickly arrived at the approximate location of the treasure, where they saw numerous disciples engaging each other in an altercation.

The battle for the treasure was already underway!

As for Davis and the others, they couldn’t help but turn to look at the treasure.
