Learning from his previous mistake, Davis had set the condition for the manual to be equal or below Emperor Grade with the former being preferable and added a condition that the Dual Cultivation Manual should be able to benefit both male and female; both the sexes involved in the intimacy.
However, what he got, in the end, was a Low-Level Sky Grade Dual Cultivation Manual that wasn’t worth a mention in his stage. It was only useful for a little while, and that too for Natalya and not Evelynn as she had reached High-Level Law Seed Stage already.
As for Natalya, even though it was a bit useful for her, it would soon be rendered useless in a year or two,
Davis almost had the impulse to throw away the dual cultivation manual he got but it was instead imprinted in his soul, hence, he couldn’t do anything about it.
Sighing at that time, he proceeded to use one more chance, the last of the four chances he used, and requested to obtain an Emperor Grade Soul Forging Cultivation Manual that was at the peak.
Feeling that he wouldn’t get the manual he desired, he simply did not add many conditions to it and only asked for a suitable Soul Forging Cultivation Manual.
Perhaps the request was too vague, Fallen Heaven pondered for a few more seconds before etching his soul with the complete knowledge of a Soul Forging Cultivation Manual!
[Incandescent Vermilion Soul Mantra]
A Peak-Level Emperor Grade Soul Forging Cultivation Manual!
At that time, all the disappointment he had gotten had been all blown away by this single yet detailed knowledge!
’A bemoaning cry of a vermilion bird; feeding its incandescent soul to the heaven and earth; only to turn into ashes, without a rebirth.’
Davis recited the first paragraph of the Incandescent Vermilion Soul Mantra in his mind.
This single paragraph, in the beginning, spoke volumes about the Vermillion Bird’s lamentation about the Phoenix Bird’s prowess.
’The creator is a man who synced his emotions and passion with the feelings of a vermilion bird in regards to rebirth and achieved Soul Emperor Stage even shot to the peak before ascending to be an Immortal.’
’He became later known as the Vermilion Soul Immortal and venerated by the later generations for this unique work of treasure.’
Davis knew the history of this manual as the knowledge he was given had also depicted the history of its birth. That said, he didn’t know which powers in this world possessed all these Cultivation Manual he obtained from Fallen Heaven.
Well, if they had a copy of it with them, then he would just have to claim that it’s his!
’... Problem solved...’
Davis moved his lips and displayed his fangs with an evil smirk.
"On the other hand, you are but an insignificant and cowardly individual who abandoned my mother and abused your position as the Emperor!"
Kaiser Ethren’s expression changed.
"Royal Protectors! What are you waiting for!? Capture this unfilial son of mine!" He yelled as he pointed at Alexi Ethren.
A few seconds later, his gaze that fell at Alexi Ethren moved to his back as he felt that there was no response from the Royal Protectors.
"Heh, father, it seems like you forget everything when you are drunk with power."
"If your memory is not clear from your long accursed life, then let me explain..." Alexi Ethren spread his hands with a wry grin on his face.
"With the rules of the Ethren Empire stating that no one can challenge the Emperor, you have reigned unquestioned and unbridled! However, now that you have stepped down, the rules clearly allow that I, a royal of high status can challenge you, the previous Emperor to a battle of death!"
"The Royal Protectors can’t interfere in the challenge as per the ancestral rules of the Ethren Empire."
Alexi Ethren sneered as he gestured in a rude manner.
When Kaiser Ethren turned to look at all the Royal Protectors who looked back at him with indifference, he narrowed his eyes with disguised anger.
"And besides, no one cares about you enough to step in to save you from this crisis!"
Alexi Ethren mocked his father’s way of life. His father had offended too many in that position, hence, most of the people who were equal to him in strength might defect from his side and not give him face anymore.
As for the other who never liked him to begin with... there was no need to say.
In the Royal Scene, Alexi Ethren knew what it would be like in his early years as a teen; people ready to backstab once the opportunity arises. However, he had also prepared for being blocked by the Royal Protectors but fortunately, it seemed that he didn’t have to use his backup plan.
Suddenly, a burst of crazy laughter echoed.
Alexi Ethren looked at this father laugh like a crazy man. He narrowed his eyes and awaited with the sound of a mild nervous rhythm in his heart as he knew that his father was not crazy at all.
In fact, although he knew that his father tended to take vile paths without thinking much in his days as the Emperor, it wasn’t entirely like that...
When it comes to matters at the Eighth Stage and higher, he knew that his father becomes unusually solemn and thinks of the consequences and places the safety of his self before anything.
But he wasn’t surprised, after all, this was the mere personality of a cowardly person who bullies the weak and bootlicks the strong!
