Divine Emperor of Death

Chapter 1634 - Soul Palaces Treasure Trove

Chapter 1634 - Soul Palace's Treasure Trove

A few minutes passed in the garden yard as Threelotus and Yotan watched the Stargaze Soul Radiance Tree have its vitality restored back to its trunk as it began to glow with its majestic golden light. Leaves and flowers began to bloom rapidly before some flowers sprouted into fruits.

There were twelve fruits, but they were still small, the size of a pigeon’s egg. They appeared golden-red in color and were spherical in shape.

Threelotus and Yotan were extremely shocked to see this strange yet miraculous phenomenon.

They had heard that the Stargaze Soul Radiance Tree only bears three to six fruits in a period of fifty thousand years, but seeing twelve fruits sprout at the same time while there were already thousands of leaves and hundreds of flowers growing at a rapid pace, their hearts leaped up to their throats.

This kind of resource creation... just what was going on here? Were they in an illusion?

Yotan didn’t stand on ceremony and pinched Threelotus’s waist with a flick of her hand, causing Threelotus to squeal in pain.

"Ahh!~? You...!?"

Threelotus looked at Yotan with an aggrieved gaze. However, they both returned their gaze at the Stargaze Soul Radiance Tree and the person in front of it, knowing that this wasn’t an illusion but still reality.

The pure and sacred aura deluded their senses, making them unable to pinpoint Davis’s prowess, but they could at least tell that it was at the Soul Emperor Stage, causing their hearts to inevitably race.

It was actually another Soul Emperor and possibly a character who could create a Sigil whom their Soul Palace failed to produce for tens and thousands of years!

Davis also saw that the Stargaze Soul Radiance Tree had rapidly grown back to health.

’As expected of Fallen Heaven. It had grown too powerful, its prowess actually reaching the Peak-Level Ninth Stage or perhaps even higher.’

Even though his own cultivation was still at the Mid-Level King Soul Stage, Fallen Heaven had individually grown by absorbing soul essences from Soul Emperor Hadrian Cross and Soul Empress Merlight, so Davis didn’t find this phenomenon doubtful.

It was just, he already expended forty percent of his soul force in a short ten minutes.

"Human..."

A voice suddenly resounded in his mind, causing Davis to tremble ever so slightly as he felt the grand aura of the Stargaze Soul Radiance Tree envelop him.

"Thank you..."

Davis paused for a moment before he merely nodded.

He needed its fruits, and the Stargaze Soul Radiance Tree wanted to live, so he felt that it was an equivalent exchange, a fair transaction.

Nevertheless, with this being the case, he felt that he didn’t even need the required ingredients he had his slave Elusivemist collect, but surely, he needed them to hasten the growth of the fruits. It would also help him shorten the soul force needed for him to aid its growth.

Furthermore, he could concentrate on two things, refining the soul essence and growing fruits.

"Threelotus..."

Davis suddenly spoke up while healing, causing Threelotus to inevitably be startled and shaken.

"Yes...!?"

She squealed for the first time after becoming a Soul Queen, wondering if she was going to be punished here or later when another Davis suddenly emerged behind Davis and pointed at himself.

"Take my soul body to the Treasury."

"Huh?"

Threelotus became stunned before she appeared as if she was going to cry. All of this was extremely new for her. She never needed to lift a thing, and the maids would take care of her since she herself was a three-hundred-year-old genius who got to this point, reaching the Peak-Level King Soul Stage.

"But... but your eminence... I don’t have much access to the Treasury. I truly apologize for my inapti-"

"Do you have access to the Library?"

The Solitary Soul Avatar suddenly interrupted, causing her to go stiff again.

"Y-Yes!"

"Good, then take me there."

He turned around and headed towards the Treasury while Threelotus had no choice but to follow him while she was still panicked. On the other hand, Yotan didn’t know what to say as she looked worried for her fellow sister but also disappointed that she wasn’t chosen in a strange way.

In the Treasury, the first floor was full of books, records, and battle techniques, soul techniques, each placed into its individual book halls. The second floor was full of treasures, and the third floor contained the legacy treasures and soul techniques of the Soul Palace.

Davis learned this from Threelotus, who had no choice but to spit out everything with Soul Emperor Elusivemist, giving her a stern warning. She led him to the first floor as he requested and watched him absorb the characters in the book as if he were engulfing it.

There was a guardian who blocked their path, but once she demanded that he ask Soul Emperor Elusivemist, the other party did so and became intimidated before he let them enter in a short few seconds.

This time, she could actually sense his cultivation which was at the Mid-Level King Soul Stage. However, knowing that it was just a soul body and could be suppressed to fool her, she didn’t believe what she sensed and merely followed him around.

Meanwhile, Davis diligently kept absorbing the books he found. Alchemy, Ingredients, Raw Materials, Blacksmithing, Inscriptions and many more. This place was truly a treasure trove of knowledge, and almost all of them were up to the Peak-Level Emperor Grade, bringing him immense joy while once again making him think that conquering the Soul Palace and decided to later show the corpse of Soul Emperor Zealwonder to the world later was the right path in his revenge.

Soon, Soul Emperor Elusivemist returned to the garden yard after assigning Soul Kings on a mission to obtain the necessary ingredients from the Astral Light Sect and the Vast Sky Emperor Palace. As he stepped into the garden yard, his expression froze as he saw the revitalized Stargaze Soul Radiance Tree emitting a golden light while possessing twelve fruits the size of a pigeon egg.

He rubbed his eyes with his palms and widened his eyes again like a little kid who could not believe what he saw, his gaze still full of disbelief. Underneath the Stargaze Soul Radiance Tree, he saw the Emperor of Death still do his thing before realization suddenly dawned on him.

The phenomenon he was witnessing was undoubtedly one of Life Laws. There was literally no other way his knowledge could make sense of it, but this kind of speed in the making the Stargaze Soul Radiance Tree... wasn’t this overkill!?

However, despite what he thought, even he couldn’t help but become vastly excited at this moment!!!

The Stargaze Soul Radiance Tree had actually recovered, which meant many things for the Soul Palace, and downfall isn’t one of them!

Davis dropped his hand at this moment as he expended seventy-five percent of his soul force. He could use Soul Emperor Zealwonder’s Peak-Level Emperor Grade Soul Essence as fuel to restore his soul force many times but decided against it as he needed it for his cultivation breakthroughs.

He turned around and looked at his slave Elusivemist.

"Have you done what I asked you to do?"

"Ah, yes! I have sent people to procure the resources. Please wait for it as it would arrive within a day or two."

"Are you ordering me?"

Davis smiled amusedly.

As soon as Soul Emperor Elusivemist saw the rebirth of the Stargaze Soul Radiance Tree, greed was apparent in his eyes.

"No..."

Soul Emperor Elusivemist shook his head and lowered, "This slave dare not."

Yotan, who was beside, had her eyes go wide in deep shock!

Did Soul Emperor Elusivemist just say that he was this person’s slave!?

Davis was inwardly taken aback by Elusivemist’s shrewdness.

’This guy... He’s doing this on purpose...’

He was basically taking her down with him by revealing that he was his slave at this moment, giving him no choice but to enslave this woman called Yotan as well.

Why?

Davis cast his gaze back at the Stargaze Soul Radiance Tree and understood.

"Elusivemist, do you want the Stargaze Soul Radiance Tree Fruit?"

"No, I dare not even dream of it, master."

Soul Emperor Elusivemist hastily shook his head, appearing to be utterly submissive.

"I see, then out of the twelve fruits, I’ll give one to the person who pleases to me the most, allowing them to become a Soul Emperor."

Davis spoke before he passed by them and walked out of the garden yard nonchalantly.

"..."

Soul Emperor Elusivemist and Yotan stayed frozen for almost half a minute before the former frigidly turned to look at Yotan.

"What are you thinking, Yotan?"

He walked right beside her and stopped half a meter before her.

"If you want to spread this information, go ahead but don’t come crying to me later that you made a blunder. Although, I think you wouldn’t even have the opportunity to do so."

Yotan trembled as she turned to look at him, her lips quivering in disbelief.

"H-How could you...?"

Wasn’t this a betrayal to the Soul Palace and basically selling her out to this unknown person?

Soul Emperor Elusivemist merely shook his head.

"Yotan, the Soul Palace has fallen like an hour ago..."

"What!?"

"Indeed, Soul Emperor Zealwonder fell, killed by master who later enslaved me."

He no longer hid it, causing Yotan’s eyes to widen as her body swayed, almost making her think that he was lying. However, for some reason, she believed his words.

"Who... Who is that person?"

She asked, causing Soul Emperor Elusivemist’s eyes to become shrewd.

"Oh, you must’ve heard about master and would already have an idea, no? But oh wait, witnessing this miraculous phenomenon must’ve disturbed your thoughts, so I will make it clear for you then."

"Master is none other than the Emperor of Death, reborn from the ashes."

"It can’t be..." Yotan’s eyes severely shook.

"Think what you want, but tonight, if you fail to sleep with master, master will probably make you live a life worse than death."

Yotan recalled Davis’s words when he left and inevitably shuddered again. She suddenly cast a gaze of hatred at Soul Emperor Elusivemist, clenching her teeth in anger.

"How can you do this to me? I am your junior sister, for heaven’s sake!"

She was able to tell that he had purposefully revealed his enslaved status to get her into this mess. After all, it seemed like the Soul Palace was brought down without anyone even coming to know of it!

Such a feat, she too believed that only the Emperor of Death who killed Soul Emperor Hadrian Cross and Soul Empress Merlight was capable of it!

"Hmph! How fickle! Carry the burden of the Soul Palace with me together! Or don’t even call yourself a Soul King of the Soul Palace in the first place! Even more, do me a favor and kill yourself if you don’t claim yourself to be a Soul King of the Soul Palace because it was rather merciful of master to leave you with a choice to make, unlike me who got enslaved with a knife pointed at my soul."

Soul Emperor Elusivemist harrumphed with a disgruntled expression on his face before he turned around and left, leaving a severely shaken Yotan whose expression appeared tragic and painful.
