Divine Emperor of Death

Davis looked at the sexy, dark purple-robed beauty in front of him, becoming taken aback. He turned towards Evelynn and saw the striking resemblance they shared with each other, which was their sexy eyes and bust. They were of the same shape and size, mind-boggling him.

Moreover, they had the same spider beauty mark on their foreheads, except Empress Hex Arachnid didn't have a third eye in her human form, unlike Evelynn.

If their sculptured nose and luscious lips weren't of different shapes, he really would've thought that they were the same person.

'They're like sisters...' His gaze went back and forth.

Even Evelynn looked momentarily taken aback, her eyes narrowing as she wondered if the Empress Hex Arachnid was playing some deceptive game again. She didn't fully trust Empress Hex Arachnid because she felt betrayed once, having been almost taken over.

"What's the meaning of imitating me?"

"From the moment I saw you, I know it's nothing else but fate that you would be tied to my Three-Eyed Chromatic Hex Species. After all, I didn't imitate you. This is my original face."

'Fate…?'

Davis possessed an amused expression on his face, unlike Evelynn, whose body shook in doubt.

If he didn't save Evelynn from the derailed fate, what kind of fate would she have? But because he saved her, she had some ties to the immortal world's Three-Eyed Chromatic Hex Arachnid Race? How does that work?

His mind spun, but he couldn't arrive at an answer other than this was co-incidence, and the Empress Hex Arachnid was spouting nonsense, but her gaze that fell on him the next moment sent chills down his spine.

"Young man, you played with something you shouldn't have. The unlikely scenarios you would not experience in your lifetime will turn plausible, so beware."

"…!"

Davis's body shook in disbelief.

'She… she's aware of the fate-changing aspect of Fallen Heaven? No… that can't be… even Lereza seemed unaware of it. All they should be aware of is the fact that holding it would cause immeasurable danger to oneself every time they used it… wait… so it's just a guess? After all, the fact that I possess a true apex treasure isn't normal, not to mention I'm practically an Anarchic Divergent with heavenly lightning and heavenly flames in my grasp… Yes, the Empress Hex Arachnid must've figured out when both are combined isn't good for meddling with many things, which ultimately changes fate...'

Davis heaved a breath of relief before he turned to look at Evelynn.

Evelynn was originally not this beautiful. She was lacking in attractiveness compared to every one of his women, but after she took the complete blood essence of Misteltae, her facial features did indeed become more refined and empire-toppling but to think that it was not just a part of mutation but actually made some fate with the Empress Hex Arachnid at that point itself.

Perhaps, Evelynn was meant to receive this inheritance from that very moment onwards. Then even without him, she would've eventually arrived at this inheritance in two years, that is…

'… If I still laid half-dead without Shirley saving me…'

Davis's gaze shook, 'But because Shirley saved me, Evelynn's fate with this inheritance was delayed…'

Somehow, he could imagine it, a reality that never occurred but was changed by Fallen Heaven when he woke up after Shirley saved him, then constantly changing after his every action and perhaps even now.

However, the end result of that fate that never realized? Evelynn would've been possessed by Empress Hex Arachnid's heart demon, and his family would've been done for, including him.

The very thought terrified him, but his mind couldn't help but spin, recalling Myria's scream on the day he almost battled her to death.

[You think you can control this damned treasure that even pushed the master of the world to this plight!? Ha! I was right. You are conceited like a fool. I was always wondering how Ellia was different as she managed to awaken me, and it turns out that you have this damned treasure, which allowed her to deceive the eyes of the heavens. Perhaps, did you think it was caused by your actions? What a farce! Wake up to reality! That damned treasure allowed me to wake up so I could kill you and take it! This damned treasure always gives the illusion of indomitability but ruined the lives of many immortals, you brainless idiot!]

Myria had screamed at him with outrage at that time, causing Davis to become dumbfounded, but now, those words clearly resounded with him. Each of the changes it caused, in reality, did have an aspect of turning against him. Although it could not be said to be all, some did come to haunt him or the others back.

'What else I missed…?'

His mind rapidly spun again, knowing of Clara's Transcendent Truth Eyes waiting to explode on them because he was an Anarchic Divergent, and as figures accompanying him, she, as a warrior of the heavens, would take action to end their lives after she became an immortal.

Natalya's fate where she had been plagued by the Forsaken Yin Lotus Manual's abandonment cultivation method, which might backfire and cause her to potentially go crazy, and Tina's fate where her soul's health turned for the worse but was a blessing in disguise when Myria showed up and reversed it but couldn't say for sure what it held for the future.

His little aunt, Tia's fate, was also strife with bringing down a heavenly tribulation, and he had resolved it, but what if he didn't completely resolve that knot and there was more to it than expected?

Glyn, Lucia, Diana, and the list went on, even Myria and Ellia since they had interacted with him much more than they should have.

There were others to be aware of and many others he wasn't aware of. Even if one of their fates went downhill and managed to penetrate his defenses, it was over.

'That's what Empress Hex Arachnid is trying to say…'

Davis's expression became incredibly complicated before he took a deep breath.

"Empress Hex Arachnid, could you tell me what exactly is this true apex treasure?"

Empress Hex Arachnid shot an amused smile at Davis.

"Knowing will not benefit you at this moment, and I've been commanded to keep my lip closed when I settled down here. If you want answers, find them yourself but just know that revealing that you have it to the immortal world will lead to your downfall regardless. There are many who crave its power, even with the risks involved. I craved it too, but if only I had it before I made the decision to come here..."

"I see."

'As expected…'

Davis said but inwardly sighed, understanding that asking was a waste of breath.

Not one of these immortal beings spilled anything about Fallen Heaven even though they seem to be aware of its existence, thinking that it remains with the world master, although the Fire Phoenix Mistress, Ice Phoenix Mistress, and Empress Hex Arachnid were all shocked when they found out he had it with them.

"However, I can tell you about the matter of Candidates and the powers you should watch out for."

The Empress Hex Arachnid gave a long list of powers that kept making Davis's eyes wide before he had to calm himself while Evelynn still had her mouth agape.

Nonetheless, It was just like Ellia said.

The matter of Candidacy was to send their young ones as a sacrifice and involve the aboriginals of this world to fight for a heaven-defying manual.

But what kind of heaven-defying manual? He didn't know but wondered if it was the higher levels of the Grand Chaos Body Art and, perhaps, even the Chaotic Genesis Physique that was missing in his version of Grand Chaos Body Art.

If it was such a thing, then he could agree why many powers would send their young ones to take part in this insane competition that's going on for millions of years. For one reason, it was to reduce the karmic burden received from having karma with this world, so they must earn it through their own blood and sweat, but through a proxy, and for the other reason, it was because these powers that came from the immortal world were all…

'Only at the Immortal Emperor Stage at max...'

Understanding that these powers were also trying to stand at the top of the world by flipping their fates once and for all, Davis nodded at the Empress Hex Arachnid as thanks as this was useful information; knowing what kind of opponents he was going to face upon entering the First Haven World that is.

Fire Dragon, Water Dragon, Wind Dragon, Golden Dragon, Fire Phoenix, Ice Phoenix, Starlight Jade Wolf, Silver Radiant Skylark, Blazing Thunderlight Kirin, and many more magical beasts that have the potential to become immortal beasts he had encountered in his journey were just the tip of the iceberg waiting for him in the First Haven World.

There were even more terrifying immortal beasts, immortal spirits, and immortal humans waiting for him! Or rather, waiting for the last batch of Candidates to arrive before starting off the entire bloody competition! No, a prelude to a gruesome battlefield of inheritors laying their lives to gain supremacy for their respective backers!
