Divine Emperor of Death

Davis and Evelynn blinked, their sapphire and black eyes only perceiving each other as they stared. They both stayed stiff and unmoving as the p.l.e.a.s.u.r.e continued to affect them. Their expressions were a sight to see as it was a bit melted in ecstasy, joy, and relief.

"Davis..." Evelynn heavily sighed as she regained her breath as well as stopped herself from breaking through to the A.d.u.l.t Soul Stage, "It was otherworldly... I experienced too many comprehensions at once that I think I blanked out for a few seconds along with the p.l.e.a.s.u.r.e..."

"... I see..."

Davis nodded with a relieved sigh.

So she had fainted... He felt like he now understood the events.

At that moment, his soul and her soul were inexplicably connected in a strange manner along with their flesh, and the moment she went limp, he could momentarily feel no response from her soul. That made him be struck with intense fear, making him think that her soul had collapsed.

They had made fun of it, but if she really died, it wouldn't be funny anymore, nor would he know how to face this mess himself other than to salvage her soul.

However, they couldn't be cultivators if they kept getting scared of taking risks.

This juxtaposition between fear and courage in their lives remained nothing more than an ironic contradiction.

"But it's strange..." Evelynn continued amidst the unusual silence, "I just recently entered Peak-Level Young Soul Stage, so it shouldn't be possible for me to reach the next stage this quickly. Likely, I think the comprehensions of your King Soul Stage Cultivation was too much for me to bear that it quickly made me faint while also making me subconsciously comprehend..."

"Your words make sense..." Davis nodded.

Evelynn's bosoms heaved as she still continued.

"If it is true, then I could see why these cultivation manuals are rare and precious enough to be valued at Emperor Grade. Although, the effectiveness of this will not be much bigger or much of a use in terms of efficiency and potency without a King Soul Stage Cultivator as their partner like you, no...?"

Evelynn seemingly giggled while Davis wryly smiled at her.

"Stop using the Rapturous Soul Aroma Manual and disperse the Physical Soul Superimposing Technique..."

Evelynn did as she was told. The soul body that was superimposed on her fleshly body separated before it scattered into thin air while the same happened to Davis.

"!!!"

Davis suddenly began to rain down kisses on her face and lips as he cupped her cheeks. Evelynn looked pretty dumbfounded as she received his lovable smooches that were full of intense emotions for her, making her heart melt and feel wonderful. It was not before ten seconds passed that Davis left her, having a complicated expression on his face as he held her gently.

"Idiot, don't go limp on me like that... I almost thought that you were dead..."

Evelynn's black eyes became moist as her lips quivered, "Dummy, I was scared too..."

How could she not be...?

Davis knew it as he wrapped his arms around her waist and let her shed a few tears on his shoulders while she sniffled. Indeed, that was a fruitful yet scary experience, and it was no wonder there was a ton of warning in the manual to not go overboard in using it.

In fact, it was warned not to have coitus the first time as a precaution, but they did it anyway. Fortunately, it was not the p.l.e.a.s.u.r.e that overwhelmed her but his King Soul Stage soul's immense comprehensions. He received nothing but Evelynn's soul probably received a ton of these comprehensions before only managing to comprehend a bit of it, but that was enough for her to have a quick breakthrough to the A.d.u.l.t Soul Stage!

It was overwhelmed with comprehensions, and that's probably why he had lost connection. Her soul had automatically rejected him from giving more comprehensions to protect herself.

"Still, I'm glad we risked this because I have entered the A.d.u.l.t Soul Stage... I am now one step closer to you in Soul Forging Cultivation..."

Evelynn separated from him as she resplendently smiled; the tears on her face already seemed to be wiped on his b.a.r.e shoulders.

"What does cultivation have to do with how you're close to me? Even if you're a mortal, you're still my first..."

Davis touched her forehead with his and smiled as he brushed her nose by lightly shaking his head.

"You sweet talker...", Evelynn kept smiling back widely as she pouted.

"You used this sweet tongue of yours to conquer how many women excluding me? Five or perhaps more...?"

Davis smiled wryly, "To talk about other women while we're m.a.k.i.n.g. .l.o.v.e, are you testing me again...?"

"Of course not..." Evelynn giggled, "I just want to know what you're going to do with Fiora, Sophie, Niera, and perhaps, even Shirley... Did you find her yet?"

"No, but I'm on it currently with the Solitary Soul Avatar heading towards the Burning Phoenix Ridge Territory. Perhaps it already made it there, considering the time needed to reach it has been shortened by my King Soul Stage Breakthrough, but I've severed connection with it as we're m.a.k.i.n.g. .l.o.v.e with our souls superimposed. I don't want the Solitary Soul Avatar to be disturbed by these overwhelming p.l.e.a.s.u.r.es, you see..."

"A very wise decision..." Evelynn's cave hole clenched Davis as she recalled that overwhelming p.l.e.a.s.u.r.e.

She still couldn't help but feel that it was otherworldly, as if it was the ultimate p.l.e.a.s.u.r.e that they, as humans, could strive for, but on the other end of it was death, making it rather ironic.

"But how does your avatar work anyway...?" Evelynn blinked, "Are you two the same or someone else if your connection is severed?"

Davis couldn't help but chuckle, "We're one and the same. Our thoughts are the same, intersecting when we're connected, but when we're disconnected, our thoughts become parallel. We are able to think differently, but it is still me."

"I... I see..." Evelynn's mouth became agape in wonder.

Davis narrowed his sapphire eyes, "You want the Solitary Soul Avatar Technique, don't you?"

Evelynn bit her lips as a crimson blush filled her face, "I do..."

Davis's eyes relaxed as he shot a teasing look at her, but it changed into one of gentleness, "Look, I will give every one of you the Solitary Soul Avatar Technique even if you didn't ask. However, the prerequisite is for you all to reach the Elder Soul Stage first..."

If it were before, Davis definitely wouldn't have given it to them because of another requirement that sacrificed thirty percent of soul essence to create it. That was a bit fatal to even Elder Soul Stage Cultivators. Hence, it was described that only Mature Soul Stage Cultivators should use it.

Davis succeeded at Elder Soul Stage, but that was due to his prowess and soul quality being superior. If anyone else were to have a try with their normal souls, it would quickly end in sickness and ailments plaguing them, making them want to have rest in bed for many years until their souls recuperated by themselves.

However, Davis had the life-like energy to negate this as he could regenerate one's soul essence back to health, perhaps over ninety-seven percent at max!

Nevertheless, that was before when he wasn't a King Soul Stage Expert. Now, it could've changed, and the limit he could heal might've increased relative to cultivation bases.

"Oh... So, I'm still incapable of using this technique..." Evelynn understood as she nodded her head.

"I thought I could travel beside you without having to fear death..."

Davis couldn't help but smile as he placed his finger on her nose, "The world is vast, Evelynn. Mystic Diviners and people who are skilled in Karma Laws would still be able to kill you even if you are not present in front of them. They'll use the strong soul connection route that you have between the avatar and yourself to target you..."

Evelynn's mouth became agape as what she thought of as an extra life still counted as the same in front of these Mystic Diviners.

At this moment, Davis felt that this was his chance!

"Speaking of which, I just made a Mystic Diviner a slave and looted his spatial ring while also saving a dams- Uh... I guess not a damsel as she already had preparation to kill the Mystic Diviner in an ambush..."

Evelynn became shocked again as she heard him.

"W-Wha...?" Her lips quivered as she knew that most Mystic Diviners belonged to the Heaven Gazing Sect, "Don't tell me that he is from-"

"Yeah, it is what you think it is, but I say he deserved it. He was not righteous but a wicked person who wore a righteous mask. I didn't see what crimes he had committed, but I'd recommend that you don't look at the spatial ring because when I glanced at it, I think I saw human flesh, corpses, and even baby corpses..."

"Moreover, there were a lot of unorthodox and wicked karmic techniques when I glossed over with my soul sense. That's why I also think it is possible for these Mystic Diviners to target us directly even if we use our avatars as a front..."

Evelynn's expression went pale as she heard him speak.

Corpses of babies?

Her expression turned wrathful as her lips moved, "Tell me that you killed him already..."

Davis sighed, "A pity..."

He explained how Tina Roxley explained to him about the protective artifact and heaven's gaze mark that would send a punitive force to deal with him if he killed Aurelius.

"I see..." Evelynn sighed in relief after hearing all this, as she didn't want her husband to be branded a wicked person by the world just because of killing a wicked Mystic Diviner. She could see it coming from miles away.

"We must thank that woman Tina Roxley-"

Evelynn's expression suddenly changed as her brows lightly frowned.

"Tina Roxley... Wait... Isn't she the woman whom-"

"Yes, that woman who knew of my identity as a youth while I took the persona of Alchemist Scythe..."

Davis smiled wryly.
