Chapter 1652 - Davis's Talent
The Soul Palace had two of these assessment stones but never shared them with anyone as apparently, this kind of assessment stone could find all three talent sources.
The Spirit Root, Spirit Blood, and Spirit Essence, the three of them pointing to Essence Gathering Cultivation, Body Tempering Cultivation, and Soul Forging Cultivation, respectively.
It seemed that Isabella and Shirley also had one each, but it was fixed on an altar in the Immortal Grade Treasury, so there was no apparent way to take it outside.
He had thought that it wouldn’t work on feys as it didn’t work for Nadia, a magical beast. Fortunately, this assessment stone worked on Evelynn, who became a fey. Even though she had a magical beast, this told him that she was still human, making her a half, a fey.
But then again, considering that magical beasts already had a well-defined talent indicator, their species rank, and royalty tier within the species, which was apparent when sensed and seen, Davis could understand why they wouldn’t need an assessment stone like this.
"Now, it’s time to check my talent."
Davis reached out his hand and held the Talent Assessment Stone.
*Bzzz!~*
Davis felt as if he was pricked on all three dantians as it did for Evelynn before he saw some characters appear on display.
[Bone Age: Less than fifty]
[Essence Gathering Cultivation Talent: Mid-Level Emperor Grade Spirit Root]
[Body Tempering Cultivation Talent: High-Level Emperor Grade Spirit Blood]
[Soul Forging Cultivation Talent: ?????]
[Final Talent Assessment: Ascending Emperor] N0v3lRealm was the platform where this chapter was initially revealed on N0v3l.B1n.
"..."
After a silent pause, Davis and Evelynn looked at each other, their eyes blinking innocently before Evelynn’s expression became worried as she raised her hands and tried to console him when he shook his head.
"It must be a malfunction of sorts... Don’t worry."
Davis spoke as he placed his hand on the Talent Assessment Stone and looked as if he readied himself when he spoke mentally.
"Okay, Fallen Heaven. Stop hiding my spirit essence. This decrepit old stone isn’t going to harm you."
He didn’t receive a reply but went ahead and activated the Talent Assessment Stone again.
*Bzzz!!~*
Once again experiencing the feeling of invasion, he looked at the words that popped up on display.
[Bone Age: Less than fifty]
[Essence Gathering Cultivation Talent: Mid-Level Emperor Grade Spirit Root]
[Body Tempering Cultivation Talent: High-Level Emperor Grade Spirit Blood]
Ascending Emperor.
Elite Emperor.
Near Immortal.
Immortal.
The talent ratings depended on all three factors: the Spirit Root, Spirit Blood, and Spirit Essence. Lesser Mortal and Higher Mortal denoted those who could easily reach the Second Stage without many resources, so on and so forth. However, Emperor Grade alone had four differentiation: Emperor, Ascending Emperor, Elite Emperor, and Near Immortal.
The Emperor rating obviously denoted the whole of Eighth Stage while the Ascending Emperor denoted the Low and Mid of Ninth Stage. The Elite Emperor rating denoted those who could easily reach the Peak of Ninth Stage like Evelynn, but of course, her cultivation was quick since she had the massive energy from her blood and her body that adapted to the blood to support her transformation.
She was a special case who transformed into a fey but still, humans like her tend to easily get to this level within a century as long as they did not die halfway while cultivating in an average manner, but he also mused that people like her would be way less in number, like remarkably less as talent is something that erodes with time and generations unless kept up with unique resources, like a mortal needing to work out diligently every day in order to keep up their body in shape.
"My husband is going to become an Immortal. It’s confirmed~"
Evelynn ecstatically smiled while Davis couldn’t help but chuckle.
"Don’t jinx it. In any case, now that we have seen our talents, let’s go."
"Oh, wait. I have called Yotan to come. Let’s inform her of what she needs to do before- mhph~"
Evelynn froze as she was sneakily grabbed and kissed by him. Before she could even react, her lips were captured, and his tongue pried her mouth open as it entered, doing the dirty work as it excavated her love juices.
Evelynn began to passionately respond, clamping on his lips with her as she became passionate.
It was unknown how much time passed before Yotan arrived, looking at them go at it without concern for their sight. Nevertheless, Davis stopped moments later, both of them appearing to be red-faced as they gasped for breath.
He let her go before he turned to look at Yotan, noticing that she was dumbfounded but also at a level he didn’t expect her to become this soon, but the answer became apparent.
"Did you give her the Stargaze-Risen Emperor Radiance Pill?"
He asked through soul transmission to a breathless Evelynn. She first calmed down before she regained her regal aura and nodded.
"I did. I was not thinking of her achievements as you said but thought that it would be better to have a Soul Emperor look after the Soul Palace for us rather than a Soul King when we leave."
"Oh, my wife is wise."
Davis’s brows raised before he smirked at Yotan.
"Congratulations, Yotan. You’re now a Soul Empress."
Yotan instantly knelt as she came out of her reverie and lowered her head. The aura of an empress radiated from her, making her appear mysterious, and yet, she couldn’t help but adopt a humble attitude.
"I don’t deserve those words, master. I still haven’t achieved anything that master would recognize as an achievement."
"So what? You can just work hard to gain achievements in your current state. Guard the Soul Palace for me and keep an eye on Elusivemist as well. I’m counting on you, Yotan."
"Your wish is my command~"
Yotan stayed kneeling while Davis and Evelynn walked past her. A few moments later, after they left, she clutched her bosom as she bit her lips, displaying a wry smile.
"That’s right. So, what if I’m Soul Empress or not? I’m still a slave...."
