Chapter 1695 - Increment
Dawn broke and continued into noon and evening.
Fortunately, it seemed like the tributes from the Dragon Families hadn't arrived yet, making Davis, Evelynn, and Isabella sleep for half a day long.
When they woke up, the two beauties looked shy before they came to accept what they did before going to clean themselves up in the bath.
Davis followed suit and made some moves on them, penetrating them together a second time in the bath. Feeling pleasured and refreshed, they walked out of the room, only to be caught by a surprised Mo Mingzhi, who grinned at them lewdly.
"This... is going to be a disaster...."
Isabella's lips twitched.
Mo Mingzhi was the worst to be caught from that they knew that she was going to definitely spread the news, and as expected, Mo Mingzhi ran off.
"Kill her?"
"Kill."
Evelynn and Isabella both took a step forward vanished from Davis's side, causing him to blink. When he went to them to see what was happening, he saw them corner Mo Mingzhi and bully her into secrecy.
'With the two of them combining forces.... Sigh, I hope my harem survives...'
Davis comically shook his head.
During dual cultivation with Evelynn and Isabella, Davis experienced not only overwhelming bliss but also benefits. His Essence Gathering Cultivation that was lagging made three breakthroughs simultaneously, making him reach the Peak-Level Law Dominion Stage.
The purity of vitality he received from Evelynn and Isabella was just that immense.
However, Davis momentarily worried that he still hadn't gotten his Lightning and Fire Law comprehension to the required level for him to create an Immeasurable Sea that stretched more than a hundred kilometers in his semi-virtual space, the lower dantian. He was just a bit away from Level One Abstruse Intent in both laws that he felt he could somehow reach within a month or two with the help of Eldia and a few other resources from Shirley's Immortal Inheritance.
He wasn't going to shy away from asking Shirley, but he also knew she would give almost anything up if he asked, the same way he would almost anything for her if she asked.
On the other hand, his Body Tempering Cultivation also received a breakthrough, entering Peak-Level Martial Sage Stage.
The Yin-Yang Merit Sutra only helped him increase his Essence Gathering Cultivation till the Peak-Level of Law Sea Stage since its grade was Mid-Level Emperor Grade, but concerning Body Tempering Cultivation for humans, it was almost natural as long as one possessed the Body Tempering Cultivation Manual for subsequent stages.
After all, exchanging vitality and digesting that condensed yin or yang energy without sending it to the lower dantian would instead seep into the body and help strengthen the organs and middle dantian, giving rise to an increase in Body Tempering Cultivation.
This was also why absorbing Isabella's primal yin essence in the past directly gave him an immense boost to his Body Tempering Cultivation.
Nevertheless, with a Body Tempering Dual Cultivation Manual, that process could be more substantial, potent, and efficient, but Davis didn't possess such a manual at Emperor Grade, and neither did the Immortal Inheritances.
Davis finally saw them come to a consensus that Mo Mingzhi wouldn't spread what she saw but instead asked them to clasp hands whenever they saw her as if greeting a senior. Her demands amused both Evelynn and Isabella, but they played along and greeted with clasped hands, making Mo Mingzhi's small and sharp nose stretch as if she was full of pride.
Davis shook his head to their antics as he recalled the difference in their cultivations.
He still remembered when Isabella was prideful and didn't see any women in an equal light, although she treated them with basic respect. Now, she even dealt with the weakest of them all with a sense of humor and closeness.
This made him recall Mo Mingzhi's talent assessment, which turned out to be a bit away from what they expected.
[Bone Age: Less than fifty]
[Essence Gathering Cultivation Talent: Peak-Level Mortal Grade Spirit Root]
[Body Tempering Cultivation Talent: Peak-Level Mortal Grade Spirit Blood]
[Soul Forging Cultivation Talent: Peak-Level King Grade Spirit Essence]
[Final Talent Assessment: Elite King]
As expected, Mo Mingzhi had the weakest talent out of all his women despite the speed that she was climbing in, and when Davis realized that her cultivation results were because of her hard work even though he may have given resources to her, he felt proud of her.
At the same time, due to the darkness in her soul, it seems like her Spirit Essence underwent a change and became a Peak-Level King Grade Spirit Essence. Otherwise, such a vast difference didn't make sense to him or anyone else together with them at that time.
While everyone uttered words of consolation to Mo Mingzhi, she merely smiled and was full of confidence that moved the others. Her mentality that bordered on challenging anything that came her way also boosted the morale of the girls after they saw their own mediocre or average talents that didn't reach their third sister Isabella.
[Bone Age: Less than hundred]
[Essence Gathering Cultivation Talent: Peak-Level Emperor Grade Spirit Root]
[Body Tempering Cultivation Talent: Immortal Grade Spirit Blood]
[Soul Forging Cultivation Talent: Immortal Grade Spirit Essence]
[Final Talent Assessment: Immortal]
Isabella was in a class of her own, even surpassing his talent at the moment.
Not only Davis but everyone could tell that Isabella's body and soul were heavily nourished by the Earth Dragon Immortal's True Blood Essence and Soul Essence. Her Essence Gathering Cultivation, which should've been worse, also seemed to have vastly improved after gaining the true blood essence.
Moreover, during this dual cultivation session, she had advanced from High-Level Law Manifestation Stage to Peak-Level Law Manifestation Stage. If it weren't for the fact that her Earth Laws were at Level Six Intent for Essence Gathering Cultivation, she would've made a breakthrough to Law Dominion Stage by this time.
Davis could see that Isabella had her cultivation path lined out by herself, so he put his worry on his Mingzhi, especially when he thought about her soul that turned into one of darkness over witnessing him die supposedly.
It made him feel as if it was almost one of those whims of Fallen Heaven falling on Mo Mingzhi, Sophie, and Evelynn, just like it changed Clara's physique as in his derailed fate, he couldn't remember Clara having the Transcendent Truth Eyes.
Nevertheless, Mo Mingzhi's cultivation path was unclear to him, but he could see that her Darkness Laws were rising at a rapid pace, with her Essence Gathering Cultivation at Level Five Intent and Soul Forging Cultivation Level Three Intent. Subsequently, her cultivation was also at the Mid-Level Law Manifestation Stage and Mid-Level Martial Ascendance Stage, courtesy of the dual cultivation session they had together when he took her innocence.
Furthermore, due to the pills, he gave her that was concocted using the Soul Palace's resources, her Soul Forging Cultivation also climbed to Peak-Level Elder Soul Stage, a vast improvement than his other women who used the same pills because of her darkness soul having nurtured her Spirit Essence to Peak-Level King Grade, allowing her to stretch more than others.
At the moment, Mo Mingzhi could be said to be a sixth stage tri-cultivator, making her powerful amidst the average opponents of the same stage.
After Evelynn and Isabella let Mo Mingzhi leave, she came towards him and punched his chest with a suggestive smile on her face.
"Big pervert. You managed to take advantage of Evelynn and Isabella, huh?"
Davis returned a lewd smile, "Maybe I should take advantage of you too."
"Heh!" Mo Mingzhi sneered as she glanced over to his crotch, "I'm pretty sure that it's exhausted."
"If I had been in there for a week, yes. Until then, I have a lot of stamina and endurance to accommodate you, Mingzhi."
Davis wrapped his arm around her waist and pulled her towards him, making her bosoms flatten against him. Mo Mingzhi bit her lips as she blushed as she could inhale his scent. Her black eyes shone like the stars of the night sky, looking at him with desire. However, her luscious crimson lips curved as she pouted.
"Hmph! The next time you can hold me is when you marry me."
"Yes..." Davis wryly smiled before he grinned, "Guess I'll just have to go take advantage of that Young Blood Demoness."
"No! She's off-limits...!"
Mo Mingzhi held his clothes as she looked troubled, but it made Davis feel amused.
"A spirit is okay to you, but a human is not? Is it because she's from the wicked path, or is it because she's your friend?"
Mo Mingzhi shook her head, "It's not like that. I mean, she's in a vulnerable state, so it is rather easy for your vile charms to bewitch her. I want you to amend your misdeed, not worsen it."
"True..." Davis reached out his other hand and caressed her head, "Even if it were not for me, I'd do it for you."
Hearing his words, Mo Mingzhi felt content, even if it was just lip service or sweet words.
Davis looked for Evelynn and Isabella but saw that they had left. He was just about to tell Mo Mingzhi that they could now see Schleya, only for him to see Isabella appear before him as she sighed.
"I've received word that the tributes are on their way..."
"..."
Davis blinked before he caressed Mo Mingzhi's head again.
"Want to see the tributes with us?"
Mo Mingzhi's eyes lit up. However, it faded for a moment before she nodded, the glow in her eyes flickering with killing intent.
"I thought we could see Schleya now, but it's fine. Let's go kill those bastards first."
"Hehe. One has already courted death. I can only hope the others do the same."
Davis chuckled sinisterly as he thought of the Zlatan Family's decision of using a honey trap to hex him.
He wondered what kind of folly they would show him when they appear with their Dragon Queen as a tribute.
