Divine Emperor of Death

Countless people stood up from their seats and were hurriedly exchanging information, wanting to know more about this World Devouring Water Body.

However, the Heaven Mandate Emperor and the others also possessed similar grave looks on their faces.

The World Devouring Water Body is said to be capable of devouring countless things and turning them into energy to feed the host. It was no wonder while Natalya constantly attacked, Ivy Aries didn't show any signs of exhaustion. It was because she was constantly absorbing energy from Natalya's attacks, refining them and turning them into hers in a short amount of time.

However, it was a good thing this kind of physique didn't appear in the wicked path as it usually did. It rarely appears in their righteous path.

Fortunately, Ivy Aries didn't seem to be a blood cultivator. After all, although it wasn't a blood physique, blood was still a liquid. It was part of the huge sea of Water Laws. Nonetheless, they were grateful to the heavens that Ivy Aries was born in their righteous path. Otherwise, they would be forced to put her down because she could refine the blood of countless humans and even magical beasts with minimal effort.

She would become more of a monster than the Young Blood Demoness.

But truly, they never expected the Jade Lotus Valley to have a hidden a world-shaking gem.

Combined with their Jade Lotus Synergistic Sea Records that has the property of absorbing the energy of others and replenishing their own energy, they could see that Ivy Aries was a perfect fit for their cultivation manual. Although not as strong as the Water Dragon's Water, their light green water also possessed enduring defensive properties. However, that defensive and absorbing nature allowed them to exhaust their opponents as long as they weren't overwhelmed!

One could imagine how far Ivy Aries could go with her World Devouring Water Body. It definitely could reach greater heights than she would undoubtedly surpass her Valley Master and Ancestors and step into the Immortal Stage.

'However… the fact that she hadn't made much progress in her Immeasurable Sea could only mean that her physique's quality is at High-Level Emperor Grade.'

Guessed the Heaven Mandate Emperor in an instant using Clara's growth and countless others as a measuring ruler, and his guess was actually true.

Ivy Aries's physique is the hope to the Jade Lotus Valley in these times of calamity, but they were lacking the resources and knowledge to develop her physique.

Not much was known about the World Devouring Water Body, but it could be slowly researched with the collective knowledge of the righteous path now that they had revealed her.

If someone tried to harm Ivy Aries, perhaps, the Jade Lotus Valley would no longer be an isolated lotus but turn into a demonic lotus that hunts those who try to harm her. No one should touch her if that's the case, or else, the mysterious and seclusive Jade Lotus Valley would bring their full might, which is unknown, to flatten their enemies.

The world only knew that they were hiding like turtles in a living lotus wonder, but the Heaven Mandate Emperor knew that their lotus could shake heaven and earth if it was provoked, making it leave the Jade Lotus Valley Territory. He didn't know much about it, but records mentioned that it was a terrifying lifeform whose prowess could reach three levels above Peak-Level Ninth Stage from all the century millenniums it lived.

It is the sole protector of the Jade Lotus Valley that allowed them to last from time immemorial without much foundation like them!

In the Alstreim Family's seating area, people were astonished.

Looking at that Ivy Aries who shone with azure light, Alexi Ethren's brows twitched. Even if she turned out to be in a relationship with Rayn Shard, his chances of killing her almost dropped to zero. Only Davis could kill her to avenge Old Man Garvin, and he couldn't help but feel helpless.

He originally thought that he could bide his time to defeat the Shard Family even without Davis, but at this rate, wouldn't they soar high into the skies if they held onto the Jade Lotus Valley's jade legs who possessed Ivy Aries?

"What do you think?" He couldn't help but ask Davis through soul transmission.

Davis came out of his reverie and blinked.

He had just been convinced that this was certainly a change in fate lines caused by him meeting with Old Man Garvin or Fallen Heaven, to be exact. Otherwise, a genius from Old Man Garvin's descendants appearing suddenly out of nowhere with a unique physique like the World Devouring Water Body which is feared and revered… he didn't believe that this kind of coincidence was natural or should he say, following heaven's fate.

"It doesn't matter if she has a unique physique or not as she's not capable of threatening me, now or ever. I'll give her a chance. However, she has to die as long as she goes against our wishes to avenge Old Man Garvin. She cannot do anything to me, but she's still a threat to my family. If the Jade Lotus Valley interferes, they're going to die too."

Davis realized that killing the Shard Family was going to be hard, not in the sense of prowess but the people involved. The Jade Lotus Valley would definitely interfere as they maintained a few thousand years of alliance with the Shard Family of the Emperor Sword Sect. He didn't wish to kill some innocent beauties who minded their own business in some isolated Territory, but he could only harden his heart to fulfill Old Man Garvin's wish.

If it weren't for Old Man Garvin teaching him for three years and imparting a deep foundation to Soul Forging Cultivation, he really would be slower in comprehending the mysteries of heaven and earth and resonating with them.

Even if he didn't have the Blood Soul Contract binding him anymore, he was determined to fulfill Old Man Garvin's wishes and get revenge for him. A debt of blood could only be repaid with a debt of blood.

Davis's words made Alexi Ethren feel a deep chill.

As expected of the person who massacred the powerhouses of the righteous path. Of all the people he had heard of, only Davis could utter something like that without even an ounce of fear or even nervousness.

Davis was his friend, but he couldn't help but admire and want to reach his heights someday. Although he felt that it would be impossible, at least a dream that's not realistic will help him reach greater heights as long as he doesn't mess up halfway.

In the fiery lands, Threelotus watched this scene from a distance with shock visible in her eyes.

Natalya and Ivy Aries were powerful enough to crush her if she got caught. That made her feel helpless but that she was also right to retreat. Her chances of winning at least were near to abysmal, but at least she could enjoy the view of these two geniuses battling it out.

Natalya's confident expression disappeared, replaced with a solemn one. She couldn't hear the uproar outside but realized that she had been duped.

Ivy Aries was just putting on a show of being defeated. What she really had been up to was to absorb Natalya's energy and make it hers, so in reality, she hadn't lost much of her essence energy even though it may have appeared like she was using her full strength against Natalya, rapidly spending her essence energy.

However, Natalya didn't suffer much while she had just lost eight percent of her essence energy. That energy now all went to Ivy Aries, but Natalya didn't know how much she could extrapolate and acquire from that. But, as she sensed the azure aura from Ivy Aries, she now knew why the other party could absorb her energy with such efficiency without having a need to use an artifact or some other item.

"I didn't expect you to possess a unique physique, Ivy Aries. Any chance that it would help you reign superiority over me in our battle?"

"Nope," Ivy Aries shook her head as her green eyes were gleaming with an azure glint, "I'm just trying to exhaust you as you've guessed, but I was unable to even hold for some time. Truly, you're terrifying enough for me to activate my World Devouring Water Body. Otherwise, I would've lost before I could make a comeback."

"So that's what it is called, but I still have no idea what it entails as I'm not erudite. Please forgive my ignorance."

Natalya giggled before her essence energy surged out of her body. Ice energy surged from her left hand, and yin energy surged from her right hand. She clapped her hand, gently holding them as she uttered.

"Devour this then, and perhaps, you'll broaden my narrow horizons…"

A small icy-blue lotus bloomed into existence, treading its way towards the towering azure lotus.

People scoffed at seeing the size comparison, but the expressions of knowledgeable people changed as they screamed.

"Yin Fusion…!"
