Divine Emperor of Death

Everlight shivered as she inevitably felt that his finger touching her forehead was quite offensive.

But at the next moment, the feeling of soothing overwhelmed her instincts, causing her to become stunned as her eyes quivered, a gentle look appearing on her face.

What was this? It made her feel like the dissonance between her Will and soul no longer existed, allowing her to feel happy over his touch.

Feeling his warm energy flow over her, she simply closed her eyes, enjoying the sensation as she felt drowsy. Using the Bloodline Impelling Evolution: Regal Technique also caused her to become tired that she simply fell asleep standing in a few minutes.

On the other side, Mira and everyone else finished their discussion, and Starcy returned to Sophie's soul sea, feeling safer than in any other place.

They surrounded Davis, looking at him, imbuing life energy to the sleeping Everlight. They also tried to learn something from him, at least the slightest hint of synthesizing life energy, but their attempts all ended in failure as they couldn't understand heads or tails, receiving zero insights.

An hour later, Davis couldn't furrow his brows, finding that Everlight's soul essence capacity was shockingly high!

Even though he was powerful, he sensed that he had only healed ten percent of her soul essence in a single hour.

If it was someone else, it wouldn't even take him a minute.

Nonetheless, he recognized that Everlight sacrificed thirty percent of her soul essence to use Bloodline Impelling Evolution: Regal Technique. Even he would be horrified to use that kind of amount for the first time as it was similar to how he used to create avatars.

However, he was using that thirty percent to create an avatar, which wasn't exactly lost. But in Everlight's case, she completely sacrificed it to raise the tier of another existence.

That was something it took guts, especially when she misunderstood that she had no chance to heal it back to health. He appreciated her determination, causing him to decide to use Fallen Heaven's life energy to fasten the pace.

However, Davis was well aware that he could not abuse this power.

He understood that just as killing people invoked an unknown change in the lines of fate, healing does the same thing. The same went for reviving people.

If he kept using the healing prowess of Fallen Heaven, some ridiculous change was bound to happen. But since Fallen Heaven had already changed Everlight's fate, he didn't particularly care that this healing session would induce anything in the short term.

However, if he kept healing her using Fallen Heaven and allowed her to create multiple Emperor-Tier Magical Beasts or even Immortal Beasts, he knew for a fact that it would come to bite him back. Without enough strength, there was no way he could fight against such a change that would shake the world.

After healing her soul essence in a short few minutes after an hour, he had his hands hover over her bosoms, healing her heart as it began to renew her blood essence that she also lost.

Soon enough, Everlight woke up as her eyes quivered. Her azure-golden eyes gazed at his calm demeanor, becoming smitten as she smiled. The sensation of dissonance still remained, but it was no longer as prevalent as before, causing her to wonder if her body's instincts recognized the greatness of the person she admired.

"I'm grateful, master. Due to your magnificent healing prowess, I will be able to recreate the three tails I sacrificed in nine days."

Davis nodded. If he wanted, he could only restore the appearance of her tails using his power but not the azure orbs. Those were the things that caused the tails to be special.

Hence, he didn't do so using Fallen Heaven's life energy, for that would make it look like it had been the 'cause'. Instead, waiting for nine days was way better, and the 'effect' wasn't anything to be worried about since there wasn't a direct influence.

But for someone else, he would have to use Fallen Heaven's life energy no matter what, or that person's blood recipients would be stuck in the mortal realm for some time.

"Mira, come here."

Mira heeded his words without hesitation and took to the air, appearing before him as she gazed at him eye to eye. The usual bit of fear she would display in front of his presence was nowhere to be seen, replaced with a surge of confident air.

"What? You look like you want to fight me."

"I do~"

Mira grinned, causing Davis to laugh, "Aha! Unfortunately, you don't stand a chance."

"That's what I- what I want to know. I want to see just how much of a difference there is between us that even after I became an Emperor-Tier Earth Dragon, I still feel danger from you, master."

The both of them grinned at each other, looking to fight.

However, Isabella intercepted and pushed them away, "Stop it. This isn't the time to be joking as Mira would become weaker after this, possibly even lose her Emperor-Tier Bloodline after she reaches the Immortal Stage."

"That's why I want to play now~" Mira complained, but Davis shook his head.

"Actually, she would lose her Emperor-Tier Bloodline even before stepping into the Immortal Stage if we took her blood essence two times. Aren't I right, Mira?"

Isabella became stunned, but Mira looked away as she pouted, not saying anything. It was clear that she wanted to have a taste of this magnificent prowess before losing it, knowing for a fact that she would lose it after her blood essence had been extracted as she could sense it.

"Mira, you… little…" Anger appeared in Isabella's expression, but her eyes teared up.

She thought that since Mira stepped into the Emperor-Tier, she would retain her tier but to think that it would degrade even before she stepped into the Immortal Stage. This was unacceptable to her, making her think this blood essence exchange wasn't worth it and unfair to Mira.

"That's why… I'll purify your bloodline first."

Davis grabbed Mira's shoulder and began to pour Fallen Heaven's life energy through her pores. The sudden iron grab and the surge of life energy she was being pumped into caught her off-guard, causing her to blush. However, the intense rage of her bloodline greedily absorbing this energy and undergoing a further change as though it was cleansing itself caused her great shock.

She didn't think that her bloodline would still have room to improve. This was ridiculous to her common sense.

Back then, Davis had purified Evelynn's fey bloodline, locking it to her purest form possible to the best of his and Fallen Heaven's ability. In the same way, he believed that he could also purify Nadia's bloodline but was afraid that life energy would directly impede her death-attributed bloodline, causing her to become weaker and so hadn't administered. However, Mira was different.

She was an Earth Dragon and didn't have an opposite nature to life.

Davis was confident that he could purify Mira's bloodline and allow her to retain her Emperor-Tier Bloodline even after she reached the Immortal Stage.

He may not be capable of comprehending the intricacies of Everlight's species techniques unless he saw it a few more times, but for something he already had experience with, his Everlasting Samsara Tribunal Physique's comprehension bestowal upon its creation taught him more than what he needed to know about bloodline purifying and other healing methods that he became better capable of healing soul essence as well.

That was why he was shocked over Everlight's huge soul essence capacity that far surpassed his soul essence capacity.

Usually, it was his soul force capacity that would be greater than the others, while his soul essence may be slightly bigger than the others. However, Everlight had him beat in the soul essence category. In that regard, the two of them couldn't be compared in the same length.

Still, Davis couldn't reach the level of purifying Everlight's species technique had reached.

In that regard, his technique wasn't like purifying beyond its current state. It couldn't invoke the primordial nobleness hidden inside every species. Instead, it was simply cleansing the impurities, causing the blood to become purified to the max in its current state.

As Davis purified Mira's bloodline, her aura became sharper. This minute change was also sensible to the women surrounding them while it caused Mira to also descend into her own form of cultivation, trying as much as possible to retain the effects Davis was bestowing her as she clenched her other pores shut, trapping every strand of his life energy from leaving her body.
