Divine Emperor of Death

Davis flew in the Inferno Spirit Chamber Territory leisurely. This time, he only had Eldia with him.

From the starting point of the spatial tunnel to the inheritance site, it didn't long for him to arrive. Just ten minutes because he was incredibly slow, looking at the sight of spirits and their livelihood made him curious. The female fire spirits were truly… hot, but after killing some of them himself when he first came here, that charm was lost, for they were also aggressive like their counterparts.

Hopefully, he wished that Starcy, Sophie's Fire Essence, doesn't end up aggressive and nauseous like them.

Davis stopped in the skies upon arriving at the inheritance site, using his body to feel the atmospheric gravity of the small temple-like structure before him. He narrowed his eyes, wondering it shouldn't be this small, and came to the conclusion that it led underground. He was just about to use his soul sense when he suddenly caught sight of the signboard a bit away from the temple towards the east.

[WANT TO BUY Inflamed Kirin Cherry Fruit - 100,000,000,000 Peak-Level Spirit Stones]

Davis became flabbergasted before he then sensed that it was a human who appeared to be the owner of that signboard.

'Don't tell I'm going to have to battle the Renegade Human Shelter here?'

He wondered if it was going to be an instant massacre.

However, he quickly found many spirits with his eyes, mainly fire and lightning attributed spirits, seemingly spending time in the wild as they partook magical beast meat using their own bodies as campfires.

'Damn, they're all camping here?'

Davis felt ridiculous.

It was not startling to learn that the inheritance site was known to others considering that there were supposedly many Inflamed Kirin Cherry Fruits but still, how did a fight not break out?

One was a hostile human side, and the other was aggressive spirits. It was hard to believe that they endured each other's presence in the region. However, looking at them both holding signboards saying that they want to buy the fruits, he finally understood.

Perhaps, it was because they would be harmed if they entered the inheritance site without eating the fruit, making him understand their truce, but it also gave him the trouble of thinking if he would also encounter danger if he didn't eat it.

Davis thought for a moment before he decided to walk straight in.

He descended to the ground, striding towards the tomb with incomparable posture as he kept his hands back because he was surprisingly de-cloaked as soon as he arrived three hundred meters near the temple.

"Halt!"

"Who goes there!?"

Resounding voices haunted his ears before two parties rushed from the crimson woods and blocked his path.

"Fellow human! Quick! Come to our side!"

"Stop him!"

To his confusion, both groups attacked him as an array of flame and lightning attacks were cast at him. Fireballs swirled towards him while arcs of blue lightning crackled as they neared him like they were flying snakes.

'Just because I'm only radiating Law Sea Stage undulations, they think they can kill me without any repercussions?'

Davis clearly saw their movements. They were so slow in his eyes they might as well be moving in slow motion. Nevertheless, if he was truly a Law Sea Stage Cultivator, he would never survive this onslaught.

Thinking like this, he didn't plan on letting them go and raised his hand, punching out with utter calm.

*Boom!~*

The entire space in front of him visibly caved in a line and cracked under the pressure of his punch. Even before the space cracked and sucked in all the dirt and other stuff from the surroundings, blood splashed from the bodies of his gankers as they exploded into smithereens. Their blood was pulled into the spatial crack, and using his soul force, he captured their spatial rings before they could be pulled into the spatial void.

Storing the loot with a flick of his sleeves, Davis turned to look at the others who were on their way towards them but stopped in fright, the sheer horror of his power becoming visible on their faces.

"You… You're the evil Spirit Destroyer!"

One of the fire spirits screamed in terror, causing Davis to narrow his eyes.

"Excuse me? You're the ones who displayed hostility to me first."

"Ah!!!"

The spirits ran away, and so did the humans without looking back. They were even faster than the spirits, clearly knowing how to survive.

His hands twitched as he felt like killing them as it was inevitable, but they would bring trouble but remembering his own strength, he resisted the urge to kill.

Davis patted his sleeves as though dusting off dirt before he headed towards the temple that didn't seem like a tomb. He wanted to ask them what he should be aware of in this temple, but they might lie for all he knew, not to mention that they ran away in terror. Therefore, he didn't bother and arrived in front of the temple, pushing open its gates as he entered.

*Creak!~*

*Sila~ Sila~ Sila~*

Along with the noise of the rigid gate opening, a loud rattling noise could be heard as Davis saw that the door was connected with strings and crass bells.

'Is someone still in here?'

He panned his gaze around the dark space, noticing that his soul sense was also pressured in this region. Clearly, it had the peculiarities of an immortal inheritance site, so he used one hand to light up the place while surging with radiant light and used another hand to have the cherry fruit in his hand in case if the site decided to attack him.

Then, after lighting up the place, he saw dust all over the surface.

Dust was common when so much time passed, and no one was there to take care of a place. However, this dust he saw reeked of charred ashes, instantly making him understand.

"Uh-uh, these are burned remains of humans and even spirits..."

He uttered in an amused light. After all, he didn't know if he would be attacked if he took a step forward past that string full of bells hanging horizontally in front of him. Undoubtedly, it was the boundary of death placed to warn people instead of warning the people inside of outsiders like it is typically used for.

Nonetheless, with the fruit in his hand, he walked past the string when he suddenly stopped.

"Eat or leave. Otherwise, you will face death~"

An ancient voice echoed as though it was coming from a far-off distance, causing Davis to scoff.

"Haha, you're that desperate to have immortal slaves?"

He could see that there were powerful formations in place that he would like to salvage. Probably, there was also a remnant spirit remaining to be giving out commands like this, or it was just playing from a sound talisman since it didn't seem to find someone who had eaten the Inflamed Kirin Cherry Fruit.

Seeing that no reply came, Davis felt compelled to think that it was the latter, but he still wasn't sure.

Nevertheless, he took a step forwards and approached the narrow entrance that seemed to be leading underground in a passage of stairs.

*Brrum!~*

The sound of an arrow being unleashed echoed, except the arrow was freaking huge, burning, and crackling with flames and lightning!

Davis's scalp turned numb as he sensed that its prowess had reached four levels higher than Peak-Level Ninth Stage!

*Bang!~*
