Chapter 2236: Changes To The Soul

By the looks of it, Davis had successfully forged a Soul Physique by reversing the mutated Supreme Immortal Sigil that he had created after fusing the black and white tendril of Fallen Heaven. It was such a risky move, but he had managed to come out alive and almost became crippled, in the sense that he couldn’t find a way to use it.

He became unable to bring out his soul force until he discovered the method of circulating the Unfettered Earthly Reincarnation Scripture backward.

He didn’t even need to use the Incandescent Vermilion Soul Mantra to know that it would fail, but he never expected that the Unfettered Earthly Reincarnation Scripture would fail to invoke his physique’s power. However, he didn’t become panicked due to Nadia soothing his worries, not to mention that he had a feeling like he had just returned from death, quickly finding a way to bring out his soul force through understanding that this artificial soul physique he created was similar yet opposite to Myria’s Eternal Life Soul.

She had a Soul Physique of Life and Death Laws that he had seen for himself while she claimed to have worked hard to comprehend Reincarnation Laws. From this, he could tell that she wasn’t born with Reincarnation Laws, but his Soul Physique was different, having a core, a vortex containing the essence of reincarnation.

In that case, wouldn’t changing the circulation method to flow in the opposite direction work?

Davis couldn’t tell if it would work, but luckily, it had an effect, allowing him to use his soul forced tinged with reincarnation energy, although he could still sense that his circulation was not perfect, slowly stopping at a few points.

It was a matter he could only improvise with time and countless circulation tests, one that would break many people but not him as he was still capable of using life energy to restore his damaged meridians.

Nonetheless, the clogged circulation was still better than taking time to fuse life and death energy in the past while using Fallen Heaven. His cast time for powerful reincarnation energy attacks could’ve been said to be significantly shortened as a result.

On hindsight…

*Shhh!~*

The reincarnation energy floating in front of him collapsed, no, split into two energies as a black and white hue emerged from the iridescent radiance.

He gently waved his hand and collapsed those black and white hues before summoning two strands of soul force from both his hands, one full of pure white instead of the grayish-white, exuding a divine and soothing aura while his other hand surged with pitch-black, seething with an unholy impureness that made even Nadia’s eyes widen, noticing that his Death Laws was almost as powerful as hers.

Indeed, Davis realized that his Death Laws had improved to Level Six Intent while his Life Laws had also improved to Level Six Intent. As high-tiered Greater Laws, they were at their very peak of what they could be as he was still a mortal, making him feel excited, although he already expected it because his Reincarnation Laws were at Elementary Intent.

It was a no-brainer for him that this was all thanks to his Artificial Soul Physique.

But as for what level his Reincarnation Laws signified when compared to Primary Laws and Greater Laws, he didn’t know, but since his Death Laws and Life Laws were already this powerful, he mused that his Reincarnation Laws were as powerful as them, except towering with a higher prowess.

It was just… he didn’t know when the heaven and earth energy acknowledged his comprehension.

While he was in the process of making the Artificial Soul Physique?

Davis didn’t know, but as he played with his soul force, he came to understand its workings bit by bit.

“I see. Fission or splitting of reincarnation energy to use life or death energy must be done before I bring out my soul force. Otherwise, it splits into life and death energy if done outside.”

Davis worked out a few more combinations and saw that it was as he concluded.

To use reincarnation energy was akin to naturally bringing out his soul force. After all, his Soul Physique was a Reincarnation Soul Physique.

But to use life or death energy, he must first split his soul force in his soul essence before bringing them out. Although it was possible to do the same outside, it split into life and death energy instead of just life or death energy.

Davis didn’t want his enemy to be injured and healed at the same time, so he felt that splitting at the origin, at his soul essence, was for the best.. coᴍ

He focused on his soul physique and connected with his avatar.

Since his avatar didn’t force a sync with him, it meant that nothing bad had happened, but it could also mean that his avatar took care of it without his help.

Nonetheless, as he went through the memories, he frowned.

Two days had passed from the time he entered seclusion and became ready to transform his Emperor Sigil. From that time, only four days had passed, meaning that he spent forty days here, developing his mutated Supreme Immortal Sigil, reversing it, and somehow managing to create an Artificial Soul Physique.

He was shocked, not because he felt that so much time had passed but because he felt that so little time had passed. These forty days felt like thousands of years to him. He simply didn’t know how he lasted that long enough to survive, but as a result, he knew that his mental fortitude was no longer the same.

He had a vague doubt that he could easily endure the splitting or burning of thirty percent of his soul essence, but even that need was removed after Myria taught him the right method to extract thirty percent of soul essence for a lesser pain experience.

Nonetheless, what he was frowning over was the state of affairs in the Fifty-Two Territories.

The Dark Moon Crow Immortal waged war on its surrounding Territories and captured them. Of course, it didn’t lay a hand on the human race’s Territories, only capturing the magical beast race’s Territories.

The White-Winged Tiger Empire and the White Serpent Palace had been quickly conquered as they had surrendered after witnessing the might of an immortal that led to the deaths of many of their Emperor Beast Stage Magical Beasts. Even if they had an Emperor-Tier Emperor Beast Stage Magical Beast among them, they couldn’t win against an immortal.

Now, the Dark Moon Crow Empire was in control of four Territories, including their own and the Twilight Shade Valley.

As for the Cyan Soul Rat Immortal, it was essentially in a stalemate between the human powers and the Magical Beast Sanctuary’s Light Sky Wolf Immortal, not making a move after retreating back into its Grand Viridian Beast Mountain Range.

On the other hand, although the Heaven Mandate Temple and Heaven Gazing Sect’s Immortals haven’t done anything such as warfare and conquest except protecting the Vast Sky Emperor Palace Territory, they gave him an ultimatum, to return the prized disciples of the Heaven Mandate Temple and Heaven Gazing Sect before a week’s time.

Who else could they refer to other than Clara and Tia?

They demanded their return as though he had kidnapped his own little sister and little aunt.

This was the most infuriating thing ever, causing Davis to fume.

‘Just because they think that they have a perfected Mortal Immortal Vessel and their prowess could reach Level Three Immortal Foundation Stage with the addition of their Laws, they think that they can lord over me, sending me an ultimatum…?’

“Hehe..”

Davis softly cackled as he imagined their guts were as high as the heavens to be challenging him even after they knew about his ability to kill immortals, with heavenly lightning and heavenly flames on top of that.

However, he couldn’t understand one thing.

Did these two immortals demand Clara and Tia’s return after knowing that they had unique physiques? Or did they demand their return just because they were considered the cream of the crop in their sects?

After all, the former meant that the Mandate Emperor and the Karmic Guardian Emperor had betrayed him, going against the Blood Soul Contract. However, if such a thing happened, Davis knew that he would’ve sensed it as he had also signed that contract, but since it didn’t happen, doesn’t it mean that it was the latter?

Those two immortals were just demanding him to return their top talents?

Why? Just for the same reason, the other immortals were looking after their sect’s talents?’

Davis felt that he had to investigate in order to find some clues to the mystifying situation but also pay no attention to it as… who the fuck dared to demand his cold yet adorable little sister and sweet little aunt!?

‘Fuck… if they dare come knocking on the door demanding Clara and Tia, they’re in for a world of pain…’

Davis inwardly cursed, standing to leave as they still had a day left for that day.
