Chapter 2229 Misty Horizons

Davis's victory over a Level Two Immortal Foundation Cultivator sent waves of incredulity and fear amidst the Dark Ironroar Palace and its fellow Territory powers.

From a safe distance, the Dark Ironroar Palace saw their immortal ancestor, whom they revered and rejoiced upon his arrival, celebrating their supremacy, had now miserably died, cooked to an optimal level, and fed to a mortal beast.

Is that how an immortal would die? Is that how an immortal is supposed to die?

They couldn't help but stare at the Emperor of Death's silhouette in the distance, their hearts heavy and palpitating without stopping.

How can a being like him exist? Just how were they supposed to exist in the same era as him? How could they call themselves geniuses in his presence?

Those kinds of thoughts heavily weighed down on their souls, practically tempering their very wills, yet very few could tend to gain from this unexpected boon as their hearts were in dismay over their Immortal's death.

Moreover, there was a wave of terror brewing in their hearts as a magical beast exuded a terrifying presence that suppressed their souls.

Wills was the least of their concern as they didn't know if they should escape or welcome death.

They occasionally turned to look at their Emperor, noticing that he was still present, watching like them. Perhaps, their Emperor staying was the only reason that they hadn't started to escape, although some were already sneaking their way out.

Davis momentarily glanced at the remains of the Dark Ironroar Palace Immortal, wondering if someone would try to refine blood essence from it as he blinked.

'Well, let it be some kind of chance encounter... for someone else...'

A chance encounter with someone else's private parts?

Even Davis was feeling second-hand embarrassment for that particular individual who was fated for it in the future. However, he was sure that people would be willing to take it and refine it as long as he left this place.

After all, an Immortal's blood essence wasn't something that was available even if they wanted to sell their souls for it.

Despite the negative connotations, it was a life-changing encounter!The initial posting of this chapter occurred via N0v3l.B11n.

He turned to look at Nadia, who had finally finished her transformation, opening her eyes as a purplish-golden flash emerged.

Her cold wolf face melted into a big grin as she threw herself to Davis, simply licking his face.

"Ahaha... Nadia, you have reached Emperor-Tier. Excellent!"

Davis could see that she was immensely happy, unburdened even. After all, she was always worried about not being able to follow and protect him.

There were many intricacies in the immortal cultivation realm, with prowess lowering for humans, which could only be gapped by creating a foundation, or so he heard.

But for a magical beast, he heard that their bloodline tier only increased their prowess more, cementing their status as rulers of their species.

For King-Tier Immortal Beasts, the prowess they would receive is three levels above.

Therefore, if Nadia successfully retained her Emperor-Tier Bloodline upon breaking through to the Immortal Beast Stage, her prowess would be six levels higher and even reach seven levels higher because of her pure death energy!

Her happiness knew no bounds at this moment, her tongue lashing out to lick Davis to her heart's content as she whimpered in gratefulness.

Lea smiled gently at them, knowing what kind of relationship they had. In her Burning Phoenix Ridge, marriage between all the races was accepted, although it was still uncommon.

At this moment, Nadia alighted him, her head aligning with Davis's shoulder. She had certainly become taller, but it was not comparable to what an Emperor Beast Stage Magical Beast would go through, becoming tens of meters taller.

"I personally saw three before the spatial fissures, but I know none of them. Perhaps, they're immortals of declined powers living as reclusive as me in a town or some other solitary location. The others only know me because I actively try to make relations with our righteous path powers."

"Judging by all of your words, you all traveled inside the unstable spatial fissures and safely exited. On the other hand, the other righteous path immortals who similarly entered or hesitated were nowhere to be seen, perhaps never having entered in the first place."

Davis recollected their message before he asked, "Am I correct?"

The three immortals gave him a nod, causing Davis to frown.

There were apparently more than thirty immortals ready to enter the Fifty-Two Territories, but only twelve made it inside. Moreover, this was only counting the righteous path's side. So what about the magical beast side and the wicked path side?

How come the droves of immortals he expected to appear didn't appear?

'It couldn't be simply because they all became trapped within the unstable spatial fissures and are unable to leave or have died from it unfortunately collapsing, right? Or are these immortals only able to enter because they have been influenced by something? For example, subconsciously controlled by that bastard Myria refers to...'

Davis couldn't help but be skeptical. However, their stories aligned, causing him to accept their words for the moment.

"Then tell me this. From which Territory did you all land after exiting the spatial fissures?"

"The Territory that's called the Tripartite Alliance Territory." Founder Alstreim Windstorm didn't hesitate to answer.

"Poison Rift Valley Territory"

"The same as her."

The Jade Lotus Valley's Immortal looked at the Glorious Pill Palace's Immortal, both nodding their heads as though they had recognized each other when they first landed.

"Also, there was also the Dark Moon Crow Immortal Beast, as you said, not to mention the Dark Ironroar Palace's Immortal. However, we chose not to engage in conflict at that time."

The Jade Lotus Valley's Immortal recollected, causing Davis to nod as this was also in line with how Myria encountered the Dark Moon Crow Immortal Beast while on the way to the Alstreim Family after she and him finished off the Astral Light Sect's Immortal.

'These three immortals arrived from the west and the south, which could mean immortals also arrived from the north and the east, namely the Frigid World Spirit Empire Territory and the Obsidian Crystal Turtle Palace Territory.'

He wondered if there were some spirit immortals and couldn't help but imagine Nightveil's dazzling figure. He didn't know if she had come, but he hoped she survived the destruction those Vacuous Beasts caused in the First Haven World.

Nevertheless, he remained skeptical as there were too many things to consider. For all he knew, they might also be willingly controlled.

For example, reviving their loved ones.

However, Davis inwardly shook his head. How come reviving people would be so simple? He refused to believe it.

'No matter the doubt, I need to investigate these places with my avatar and Nadia's doppelganger. If I'm right, Nadia could probably even make another avatar. That's two avatars she has...'

Davis couldn't help but feel some excitement over Nadia's vast improvement. Nonetheless, he felt that it was better for him to investigate these regions using avatars while he improves his Soul Forging Cultivation and Body Tempering Cultivation.

No matter how strong he was, a mortal was still a mortal.

If multiple immortals attacked him and defended against his attacks, it was fated that he would be the first one to run out of energy and die.

If these three immortals ambushed him, he knew that he would more or less succumb to their onslaught, that is, only if they could work together.

Davis blandly smiled at his so-called ancestor.

"Founder, how about I first bring you to that accommodation of yours?"

"Huh...? Alright. Lead the... way."
