Chapter 2003: Karmic Burden?
"It's inevitable."
Myria's eyes appeared contemplative before she finally spat those two words at the end, causing Davis to clench his teeth.
"Come on, is this information supposed to come along with a kind of karmic burden that Ellia mentioned before? Is that why you can't tell me?"
"Indeed, you don't want to be targeted by the heavens before you grow up. At your level, you can't withstand the karmic burden."
"Then why are you okay?"
Davis fiercely asked. Couldn't she have said to be on the same level as him even though she was slightly powerful?
However, Myria lightly shrugged in response.
"Because I already know it from my previous life when I was stronger, so I remain unaffected."
'What?'
Davis's brows furrowed.
She knew that she was going to battle "Master Chu Feng" from her previous life? What kind of bullshit was this, unless she possessed something like clairvoyant or divination powers, but even then, they shouldn't be able to predict the dangers of next life, no?
He felt thoroughly confused.
Looking at Davis's reaction, Myria frowned. It seemed like her master really didn't teach anything other than Soul Forging Cultivation. However, there was a slight hint of suspicion in her eyes. Davis declared that his teacher was someone called Old Man Garvin, so did Davis truly have the gall to take another teacher, or was he abandoned by his master? Which was it?
Or maybe, his master Chu Feng was some recluse who didn't mind his disciple taking other teachers. Is that how it is?
Myria felt confused, feeling that something didn't make sense as experts of that caliber wouldn't easily allow their disciples to take another teacher, let alone another master. However, she heaved a breath and explained, carefully choosing her words.
That one Lightning Elemental that got scared to death when he displayed Fallen Heaven's death energy was an apt example.
But if possible, he didn't want to reveal Fallen Heaven at this juncture because he understood that he was still weaker than Myria and since Fallen Heaven said that Myria was the purest being that it had ever seen when it first laid its senses upon her, who knows that it wouldn't betray him and change sides?
Perhaps, with how omniscient Myria seemed, she might even have a method to wrest Fallen Heaven away from him?
He was extremely confident of defeating her, but this possibility was what made him hesitate to use it and see if there was another way to end this conflict. But no matter what, he wouldn't give up on retrieving Ellia either and then ask how she truly feels, free from the influence of Myria.
He considered all these possibilities in a mere second and was full of resolve, prepared for the consequences.
"I already told you about that matter, but I see you don't believe those words." Myria shook her head, "There's no use talking, so prepare to receive my attacks."
"I'll make the first move then."
Davis raised his hand above when a rippling black sword appeared in his grasp, appearing like a manifestation of deathly sharpness. The black sword's thickness was probably no longer than a few centimeters, while its length was as long as a spear. Because he was gathering death energy for his next attack while talking, he was instantly able to conjure his strongest technique, and Myria seemed to notice it but not take any action, perhaps because she was convinced that she could defend against it.
"Heaven Cleaving Abyss."
Davis spat a few words and unceremoniously struck down with the black sword in his hand when the world suddenly lost its light. It was as though the black sword absorbed all light in the surroundings within a flash, and when light resurfaced, silence reigned before the line to him, and Myria was completely severed, a spatial tear extending kilometers appearing in Davis's view.
Myria's hands were raised.
The light and darkness in her palms swirled in opposite sides, forming a yin and yang diagram in the form of a wheel as they stopped the Heaven Cleaving Abyss from splitting her into dead meat.
The piercing sharpness of the death energy struck her defensive technique, still trying to break through.
However, her eyes shone with admiration as she saw this scene.
There were no sounds of destruction because Davis's attack absorbed, no, devoured the sound as well. She didn't he could create a technique like that with his comprehension level, so it must be something he obtained from his master but even then, mastering this technique was undoubtedly difficult in her eyes for a young man as it contained so many aspects of death and devouring.
Nonetheless, this technique he unleashed undoubtedly allowed his prowess to cross three levels above Peak-Level Ninth Stage, which made her admit that he was something else, but it was too bad that she unleashed her true prowess...
"As expected, you possess something more powerful than the Emperor Sigil, don't you?"
Davis's expression was stricken with admiration, but it was also gloomy because he finally understood and established the fact that he could not defeat her with his strength alone, having to take out Fallen Heaven because she unleashed her true prowess that was three levels above Peak-Level Ninth Stage.
