Divine Emperor of Death
Chapter 4002 A Sealed Divergent
Davis felt that was good information- but there was no karmic burden after hearing it. It seems like they are all the same in the eyes of the heavens or the universe, whichever it was.
They were only naming the power level of a being that was enough to threaten the existence of realms in the Mortal Layer. Maybe it was also to stop the vast populace from trying to reach the apex?
After all, those who have ideas of a bright future will tend to want to grasp it against all odds.
Nonetheless, it was hard to think that this rift from the Shadow Dimension had existed for over six million years. What was holding it from closing? The suitable environment? Or was it Lilliana Rayton herself who was keeping the rift open with all her remaining power or the souls she devoured, or both...?
He stared at her, knowing not to underestimate her after knowing her power level.
It was unknown if he could defeat her even in her sealed state.
After all, she was sealed in the Shadow Dimension, so her Divine Exalt powers didn't reach here in the Lower Realms. She could barely extend her influence, and only through the remnant shadows of her faithful worshipers that had turned into nothing more than strange runes to control was she able to gain access to the Mortal Layer.
Otherwise, it's unknown if she could even exit the Whispering Rift.
"Do you want these armaments?" Lilliana Rayton giggled, "When the seals finally come undone, I can give half of them to you. A single wave of them should easily kill an Early Stage Divine Exalt for you, although I'm not sure if you can endure such power. If you can't believe me, that can't be helped. Still, all you have to do is leave Vereina, and we can come to a conclusion- oh, Anarchic Divergent."
"Give her to me... give her to me...! I'll make sure you are compensated well!"
Lilliana Rayton struggled as she extended her hands towards them, but the clinging chains and impaled armaments constricted her beyond compare.
Vereina's tremble only grew in magnitude.
The way she embraced him was as though she wouldn't let go even if her arms were chopped off, appearing to hold for her dear life, filled with the terrifying notion that he might abandon her. She didn't say a single word as though she was afraid he would reject her, only showing her voice through her actions that she didn't want to let him go.
Davis still didn't respond to her wishes nor console her.
He kept his gaze straight at Lilliana Rayton and suddenly revealed a lewd smile.
"Final question. Will you sleep with me? I can't wait to taste a Divine Exalt, much less a thirty billion-year-old woman whose yin should be intensely mature."
He licked his lips and swallowed loudly, exhaling a hot breath.
"You're sealed here with me. As long as I don't dispel this mental realm, what can you do to leave, you powerless Immortal Emperor? It's only a matter of time before one of my cute worshipers awakens and cleaves you two to death. Now-"
"I know." Davis smirked, "We were both buying for time, and I still can't sense my get-the-fuck-out card, but that's fine because I still have the key right with me, don't you think?"
"..."
He patted Vereina, causing the crazed smile on Lilliana Rayton's face to freeze.
Davis held Vereina's shoulders and pushed her back a bit. Her face came into his view, and she finally looked into his eyes. Her eyes were stricken with fear and seemed to have shed a few tears as they ran down her face.
It made Davis's heart feel some pain, but he coldly looked at her and raised one of his hands, shaping it into a spear.
"Sorry, Vereina. I don't know any other way, but believe me. I'll see you later in the other world."
"You- You wouldn't! You would cause her to die- NOO!!!"
*Puchi!~*
Davis stabbed right into Vereina's chest, his hand piercing through her and extending out from her body.
She gazed at him, her eyes slowly widening as though she couldn't believe what he had just done.
Blood flowed out copiously without a stop. It wasn't blood but soul force that made up her manifestation in her mental realm, which meant he just harmed her soul essence badly, which may cause her to die.
When Davis blinked, he was already back in the fifth level. The last thing he heard was the miserable and shrill scream of Lilliana Rayton, but he didn't care as he knew he had gotten rid of her. Instead, he quickly looked at Vereina, who was in his arms, but her head hung lower. She wasn't breathing either, looking as though she had died.
With his fingers still pressed on her forehead, he investigated.
"..." Davis's expression had turned unsightly. He didn't think he used too much power as he aligned it with her power level.
However, her Violent Punitive Soul Physique had still ruptured!
*Ripp!~*
Abruptly, a dark wraith appeared above them and slashed its terrifying claws at them.
