Chapter 2004: A Startling Move "Not bad." Myria praised with a warm tone, "You made me use my true prowess with that technique. Is that technique your master's?" "If I said that it's self-made while taking inspiration from a cool move I've seen before, will you believe it?" "…" Myria blinked. Davis snickered, "Since you won't, answer my question. What lies ahead of the Emperor Sigil, and how can I obtain it?" "Your master didn't tell you?" Myria raised her brows, confused. "No, he didn't." Davis didn't even bat an eye, "He's a recluse who doesn't care about such things since he wants me to learn everything by myself from the start. He only shows up when I'm in complete danger." "Such a peculiar individual, but I guess there's many like that… Moreover, if he could react to your danger, then there's an immortal strand left in your body, but it shouldn't be possible, considering the suppressed laws here..." Myria's eyes appeared contemplative as she looked away. There were other ways to predict danger through divination, making her wonder if his master was also skillful in Karma Laws. However, she suddenly turned to look at Davis. "Become my disciple, and I'll teach you the method to obtain a Supreme Immortal Sigil, increasing your level so that you could even battle immortals when you're a Peak-Level Soul Emperor." Davis became stunned. The name fit the other two uniqueness, so it wasn't that surprising, but to see that kind of realm really exists in the soul made him incomparably happy because the prospects that he could perfect his cultivations were surmounting for his future. Nonetheless… "You're asking me to abandon my master?" "That would be the case." Myria nonchalantly answered as though this wasn't a big matter. 'I could've easily considered this in a positive light if only...' Davis wryly smiled as there was no master for him to abandon, but if only Myria wasn't Ellia's captor. Such relationships would've also been possible in the past if Myria had just stayed, choosing to teach him Soul Forging Cultivation instead of flying away with Ellia's body like that, but such scenarios were unlikely considering she had a rude awakening, almost enslaving him if it weren't for Fallen Heaven's intervention. "From here on out, I will become serious." As Davis's solemn voice fell, blood churned in his heart, condensing into a tiny drop of blood. The condensed drop of blood essence was instantly consumed as Davis raised his hand again, a black sword of death appearing as he instantly struck down, the world turning dark. Myria's eyes acutely narrowed as she raised her hands, using the same defensive technique she used before. The death energy concentrated into a vertical line continued streaking across space, cleaving the air and the space before clashing with Myria's defensive technique. Light and darkness swirled, defending against the piercing threat of the death energy looming in front of her while she could sense the Heaven Cleaving Abyss was much stronger than before, causing her defensive technique to almost collapse. However, she felt disappointed. Why was she wasting his potential like this when he should understand that he couldn't win? Davis saw that even after sacrificing five percent of his blood essence to power the Heaven Cleaving Abyss, he couldn't gain an edge. However, he wasn't disheartened because his blood wasn't as powerful as his soul. Still, if he burned dragon blood or kirin blood, that would be a different matter altogether, but if he burned them, chances are he wouldn't be getting it back, completely losing them. Soon, his Heaven Cleaving Abyss faded, failing to break Myria's defense, but he could see that there were cracks in her light and darkness swirl. The black sword in Davis's hand disintegrated, his face becoming slightly pale before returning to normal. The next moment, a stinging pain emerged in Davis's soul and heart as he conjured the black sword again. "You dare to sacrifice your blood essence along with your soul essence to power your soul force!? Fool!" Myria sounded angered at Davis's foolish actions. However, there was also a sort of helplessness. She felt like she was bullying a supreme genius of the younger generation, which wasn't in line with what she considered as a battle. She directly used her soul to suppress him, but it was already too late. *Ripp!~* Davis unleashed Heaven Cleaving Abyss again, spatial storms appearing in its line of impact in the tenth of a second where light was completely gone, going straight to Myria as it continuously split apart space, even ripping it widely that the area between them couldn't be traversed. However, the deathly sharpness made it to her and struck her defensive technique, quickly breaking it. However, Myria was already ready with a complex gaze in her eyes. "Light and Darkness Twin Spiral Gyration." The same yin-yang swirl appeared in front of her. However, there was also another light and darkness yin-yang swirl that appeared behind but different than the first; it was spiraling in different directions than the first wheel, creating a sponge effect of being able to receive an impact greater than what it could initially hold. However, the moment the Heaven Cleaving Abyss fell, cracks instantly formed on the Light and Darkness Twin Spiral Wheel, causing Myria's eyes to flicker. His Heaven Cleaving Abyss Technique already required her to use Light and Darkness Spiral Gyration at the same time. Otherwise, it would be difficult for her to defend against this attack he kept spamming for reasons she couldn't understand. But now, even the powerful version of her technique almost fell prey to his attack. 'He's trying to overpower me...' Myria saw through his intention, but it just made her feel more helpless. Her soul suppression was not working on him for some reason. "Myria… tell him to stop..." Ellia pleaded from inside, her voice sobbing. In fact, she was begging the moment Davis sacrificed his blood essence. "He wouldn't listen. Of all people, you should know that he wouldn't stop because stopping means admitting defeat." Myria inwardly sighed, "You know he has crossed death one time. Perhaps, he has a way to restore what he's sacrificing to be this reckless." "We can't say for sure…! Maybe it's just a one-time saving use, but I'm almost sure that it was Shirley's Fire Phoenix Soul that saved him but now, he's recklessly wasting his soul essence for me. Please save him~" Myria's gaze was complex as she poured her soul force into her technique, keeping up her defense from collapsing. "Well, if anything, since he didn't run and tries to get you back even in this hopeless situation, it's a given that he'll protect you till he dies no matter what. I'll heal him back to health." "You're the best!~" Ellia's voice turned coy while Myria exasperatedly sighed, unable to believe these two children imposing their selfishness on her. What was wrong with Davis, hurting Ellia this way? Even if he wants to die so badly, couldn't he go somewhere else? She inwardly cursed and summoned another Light and Darkness Twin Spiral Gyration." Davis appeared in another direction as soon as his attack ended, his hand already possessing a dark sword again. It was as though he unsheathed the power hidden within, unleashing it again. *Ripp!~* Space kept tearing apart all over again before the death energy reached her, breaking apart her defense like it was glass. However, Myria had already disappeared from that location, her figure enshrouded by light as she arrived at another location. "No matter what you throw at me, it's useless. You're only harming yourself and the safety of your so-called precious women." "At least, I made you dodge." Davis let out a hoarse cackle behind the spatial tears that were quickly receding. His voice caused Myria to heavily frown as she finally saw his state. "You're not serious. You are suicidal." "Oh, really?" Davis's face was extremely pale as though he was a corpse at this moment. Having used up twenty-five percent of his blood essence and soul essence, his entire body felt numb and vulnerable. However, he regained himself and moved, arriving before the spatial teleportation formation, looking like he was about to escape. Seeing this, Myria sighed at this suicidal man. To go to such lengths to 'save' Ellia from her, she didn't know what to think other than feeling that he was a fool, although she felt complex since he was doing it for Ellia. However, if he was going to run in the first place, why waste his potential in the first place? "You're going to regret giving me a handicap and not attacking me at this moment." Abruptly, Davis sneered from the safe zone, causing Myria to quiver ever so lightly. "Hmph, it's already a miracle that you have not fainted when you're so-" Myria didn't look impressed as she spoke when her tongue suddenly got stuck as she saw the sight underneath her. Pure white light shone from Davis's forehead as well as his heart before it engulfed his entire body, causing Myria's eyes to fiercely dilate. "You… you possess the Eternal Life Soul Physique…!?" "…!?" Myria screamed as she heavily shook her head, losing her cool for the first time that she caused Davis to startle because she showed more reaction than he expected.
