Divine Emperor of Death

Chapter 737 Bai

The male Twin-Tailed Dusk Wolf couldn’t believe it! A real human was sitting on his face!

"Heard you’ve been bullying my magical beast mount... Is that true?" Davis’s lips curved as he asked, displaying absolute dominance while emanating a faint pressure that stemmed from his seamless soul force.

It was as if he was in control of the situation, and the wolf couldn’t help but find himself replying to the question.

"I... I don’t know what you’re talking about... I have bullied no magical beast mount..." The wolf stuttered in nervousness and fear.

To Davis, it was clear that the wolf he targeted got scared of him easily.

After all, he sat on the wolf’s muzzle out of nowhere and gave out no undulations, even going far as to depict the calm demeanor of an expert.

It wasn’t an exaggeration to say that he could perhaps even tame this wolf with his hoodwinking skills.

However...

"Since you dared bullied my Magical Beast Mount, die!" Davis coldly spoke.

And the next moment, the wolf lost the light in his eyes as his concealment simply wore off as his body plunged towards the empty and desolate valley.

Davis floated where he was and looked at the other wolf that had tried to sneak up behind unnaturally scamper away in fear! He smirked and didn’t do anything, letting it escape from the Sunset Mountain Wolf Clan.

If that escaped male wolf could attract that so-called alpha, then the escaped wolf would be doing a service for him. Otherwise, he would probably have to enter the Twin-Tailed Dusk Wolf and conduct a massacre after killing the alpha since their aggression might be unpredictable.

Davis wanted to avoid such a future, but if they were bent on aggression, he didn’t mind conducting a massacre as well. However, he still wanted to avoid that.

At least, that was why he told Fallen Heaven to make the escaped wolf attract the alpha... So that he could use the remaining time and collect the soul essence of the wolf he killed and experience an increase in his Soul Forging Cultivation. Its soul essence satisfied the requirement to break through to the next level in Soul Forging Cultivation.

That’s right... He wanted time until he could face off with the alpha so that he could deal with it more efficiently after breaking through.

It took him a week to help his father successfully absorb the Lightning Elemental into his dantian and refine it completely, even tempering his father’s soul in the process.

Logan, who was already near to breaking through to the Peak-Level Adult Soul Stage, broke through twice and managed to step into the Elder Soul Stage, the Fifth Stage in Soul Forging Cultivation!

Despite being less than sixty years old, Logan stepped into the Elder Soul Stage, vastly different from the other geniuses around the same age as him!

But that’s wasn’t his primary concern.

Time became the primary concern when soul essences are being refined.

Despite having his soul tempered by the Derelict Extinction Lightning, it took him half a month to refine a single soul essence at the Low-Level Lord Beast Stage, the Seventh Stage for Magical Beasts.

This meant that he needed half a month to refine a single Low-Level Lord Beast Stage Soul Essence.

This Seventh Stage Soul Essence clearly required more time for him to refine than any other stages before... and this unquestionably indicated the gap between the Sixth Stage and the Seventh Stage widened as deep as a chasm.

However, after refining a single soul essence out of the three, he broke through to the Supreme Soul Stage and found himself stabilizing in it without having to refine more soul essences. Nevertheless, he consolidated his Soul Forging Cultivation for the next half a month.

The time it took for him to refine the Low-Level Lord Beast Stage Soul Essence lessened to a week, and he refined the remaining two within two weeks.

A month passed during this refinement session altogether.

Then, he still possessed the Mid-Level Lord Beast Stage Soul Essence obtained from the Crimson Darkness Condor.

He refined that and tried to break through to the Mid-Level Supreme Soul Stage! However, it took him half a month to refine but still failed to break through into the Mid-Level Supreme Soul Stage!

He became flabbergasted and disappointed.

Usually, it took him only one soul essence at a higher level to increase his level in the stage, but now, it seemed like one soul essence simply wasn’t enough.

Quantity and quality became a secondary concern. In the past, the quality of the soul essence was his first concern, and quantity became secondary. He never thought time would take the first place.

It made him think if it were due to Fallen Heaven’s changes, but he became convinced that it was due to the big chasm of stages and the levels that aligned the cultivation path.

The further he broke through, perhaps the more soul essences he would be required to refine and digest.

Davis descended and stored the carcass of the Twin-Tailed Dusk Wolf after absorbing its Soul Essence, which was at Mid-Level Lord Beast Stage.

The other wolf seemed to be at High-Level Lord Beast Stage, but he let it escape so that he could fool the alpha into thinking that it could deal with him and was not outmatched.

Otherwise, wouldn’t the alpha never show up if it knew that it couldn’t win against an opponent like that?

In any case, the escaped wolf would probably return with the alpha in a few days, so he wasn’t bothered by losing the valuable soul essence for now.

He turned to look back at Nadia wondering if she had stopped crying and it really seemed she did...

He flew towards her and stood in front of her. Looking at her fair yet tanned skin, he really felt that she was a one of a kind. After all, he hadn’t seen anyone appear naturally tanned in this world before.

In Earth, people were affected by the region, the conditions they lived in, hence, after generations and generations, they gradually adapted to their surroundings as they produced little or more melanin in their bodies, but here, it didn’t seem like that as the people he had seen before all had fair white skin.

Was it their genes just too adapted to the environment?

Besides, the sun, although seemed to be following the same pattern and time as back on Earth, he felt that it was entirely different. It was as if it provided the same warmth during the day in every part of the world except when changed by external sources such as deserts or ocean, it differed.

Of course, the sun’s temperature at a particular point of time during the day differs in its alignment as well.

Hence, Davis wasn’t really sure how the sun shined its light in the skies.

Did this massive continent move around in space, orbiting the sun?

Or is the sun orbiting this massive continent, which is probably more than a trillion kilometers long?

Either way, the sun has to be massive and distant to withstand the gravitational pull of this massive continent and vice versa.

However, if the massive continent were to have an enormous gravitational pull that makes the sun orbit around it, wouldn’t they all be crushed to death by the gravitational pull instead?

But...

The gravitational pull here is probably the same as Earth! Even mortals can live here... Why was the gravitational pull normal in the First Layer or even in the Second Layer?

Davis didn’t know why, nor was he able to find out why since he wasn’t able to travel across outer space in the First Layer. He promptly dropped his thinking since he wouldn’t reach a conclusion any time soon.

Looking at Nadia abruptly incline her head, he blinked.

Her actions were vaguely similar to those scenes he had seen before in those animations.

’Could it be that she wants a head pat?’ Davis blinked again, wondering if it was the case.

Except, it really could be true since Nadia is a wolf, similar to dogs where they would like to be caressed by warm hands.

’Now that I think of it... Didn’t I just pat her just a while ago?’

He did that subconsciously as he would always do when consoling his wives or sisters... But to think that Nadia would obediently incline her head to have him pat her head...

She is a Magical Beast for heaven’s sake! Not a domestic animal!
