Divine Emperor of Death

Tina Roxley searched for Alchemist Scythe for a while, but she was unable to find him. Then, to pursue Alchemy and escape from being scorned as a father-killer, she had to leave. Besides, she didn't want to stay anywhere near the detestable Roxley Family anymore.

She had further told Elder Seylas to contact her if Alchemist Scythe ever appeared, but even till now, she has yet to receive any word. She was completely unaware that the young man had intimidated Elder Seylas into keeping his mouth closed.

She was unaware that even if she waited for a hundred years like this, she would still not be able to meet or hear about that young man.

"The only way to find out is to divine your future again!" Aurelius suddenly said, but his expression was scrunched up in hesitation.

Tina Roxley instantly asked, "Will I know what happened to that young man if I-"

"That depends on your future." Aurelius raised his hand.

Tina Roxley was about to agree when Brandis Mercer widened his eyes and reprimanded, "You can't! You will not use your blood essence again!"

"I have to!"

Tina Roxley retorted and cried as she clenched her small fists, "Otherwise, I would never be able to calm myself down."

Brandis Mercer became alarmed and enraged, but looking at her desolate expression, he was unable to become angry at her for becoming foolish. If he stopped her, he became afraid that she might manifest a heart demon.

A hand suddenly grasped his shoulders, "It's fine. My divination technique has improved, and it only requires three percent of her blood essence to divine right now. Her blood essence can be replenished with time as long as you can buy enough resources. If you're unable to purchase, I'm willing to help."

Aurelius said, causing Brandis Mercer to sigh, "Are you sure that the skies won't change colors again?"

Aurelius nodded his head, "Last time, we've seen too much. I got carried away as I've never been able to project too many scenes from the future, but this time, I'll end it with just a few. Don't worry, this time, there will be none of those mythical tribulation clouds. Heh, only the legendary Immortals are worthy of them."

Brandis Mercer nodded his head as he took a deep breath.

In a few minutes, everything was ready within the hall.

Looking at Brandis Mercer and Tina Roxley, Aurelius nodded his head before activated his technique.

The earth trembled, and space shook! The time flow became erratic before all the surrounding energy poured into the Divine Heaven Mirror Water!

"Heaven's Divination - A Glimpse into the Future!"

*Boommmm!~*

The rectangular basin exploded, and the Divine Heaven Mirror Water directly burst apart! Aurelius directly spat a mouthful of blood as he collapsed.

"Brother!"

"Uncle master!"

Brandis Mercer and Tina Roxley became aghast as they saw Aurelius collapse.

"What happened!?" Brandis Mercer echoed, panicked as he supported Aurelius from falling on the floor.

Aurelius held his chest while his eyes were wide. He looked at Tina Roxley incredulously before he shook his head, "Nothing, it's just a backlash. Something must have gone wrong."

"Enough, there's no need to divine anymore, just rest!" Brandis Mercer yelled.

"It's not like I can try it anytime soon with this backlash exhausting me..." Aurelius weakly smiled.

"Uncle master, I'm sorry. It's all because of me. It's my fault..." Tina Roxley bit her lower lip and whimpered.

"Sigh, it's not your fault. Your uncle master is just useless. I..."

"Don't talk anymore! You will rest and suppress your injuries!" Brandis Mercer urged.

"Then... I'll take you up on your offer..." Aurelius closed his eyes and fainted. It was as if he really could not handle the mental stress that echoed from the backlash.

Indeed, Mystic Diviners can also be called Suicidal Diviners. They often witnessed what they shouldn't and ended up dying because of it. Compared to them, Aurelius's case could be seen as a normal and harmless one.

Aurelius was carried away by Brandis Mercer. On the way, Aurelius kept his soul force undulations as stable as possible. Yes, he had not fainted! Instead, he was acting!

He was in absolute disbelief! He could not believe his own discoveries!

'Divergent! She's a Divergent!' Aurelius inwardly screamed.

He was in doubt how her path determined by the heavens could've changed. He had a vague inkling before, but with this, he had practically confirmed it! Otherwise, there was no way his divination would've failed before it even started!

It wasn't that the heavens didn't acknowledge his interference in divining Tina Roxley's future. It was that even the heavens didn't know what would happen to Tina Roxley, making her a divergent, greatly diverging from the fate that had been bestowed to her.

However, he still couldn't understand.

He had once been able to view her future, her fate. If that is the case, he should be able to view it again though it would require more sacrifice on his part. However, he was unable to even activate the divination technique on her.

The Divine Heaven Mirror Water is said to be in harmony with the heaven and earth energy, making Mystic Diviner able to communicate with the heavens to see one's future, past, or even the present affairs. If he was unable to activate such a divination technique on her when he was at his peak, it clearly meant that something had changed in Tina Roxley!

What was it that changed her fate, making her become a Divergent?

He didn't know, but he could guess with the current knowledge he possessed!

'She has a Fate Discarnate Soul!!'

Aurelius's soul almost fluctuated in greed! He knew this because of the inheritance he had chanced upon in his early years. He made an immense effort to become a Mystic Diviner. However, the inheritance he obtained was an unorthodox one. It contained evil and cruel methods to divine, one that just didn't use blood essence to divine.

However, it wasn't full of unorthodox methods and techniques. Otherwise, there was no way he would've been accepted into the Heaven Gazing Sect as an outer disciple.

Aurelius's thoughts churned.

Right now, he felt like he had hit the jackpot! He never even once thought that he would encounter the host of a Fate Discarnate Soul. He didn't know how Tina Roxley came to possess a Fate Discarnate Soul, but he felt something could've happened in the time he was away, causing her soul to mutate.

But how her soul mutated didn't matter to him!

In his inheritance, there was a method that enabled him to use the Fate Discarnate Soul in his divinations, effectively allowing him to get scot-free of the divinations he performed. It didn't matter if he divined a small matter or a greater affair that changed the whole world, he would still be able to get scot-free from heaven's retribution!

He would also be able to divine his own future and escape from heaven's retribution! After all, Mystic Diviner's weren't supposed to peer into their own fate since that would not end well. The chances are that they would easily die if they were to divine their own future.

Mystic Diviners often suffered from the retribution of the heavens for peering into the secrets of the heavens. Peering into people's fate is the same as peering into the secrets of the heavens since it is the will that has ordained the lives of people.

Hence, possessing something that veils him from the heavens, such as something discarnate, in this case, a Fate Discarnate Soul, will enable him to soar in the world of divination!

It was his dream!
