Divine Emperor of Death

Chapter 2021: End Of The Emperor Sword Sect?



Chapter 2021: End Of The Emperor Sword Sect?

At this moment, disgust was prevalent in Davis's expression. If previously, he had just been cold from witnessing Ancestor Nereus Shard's shrewdness and cowardliness, right now, he was full of aversion that he couldn't even consider him to be a human.

Davis raised his foot and stomped.

*Bang!~*

Blood splattered, and brain matter spread on the ground, tainting the pristine white floor.

Without even uttering a scream, Ancestor Nereus Shard died under Davis's shoe, his soul being crushed under the weight of a dragon's stomp. In fact, he didn't even expect that the Emperor of Death would refuse to accept his surrender. After all, he, a hegemon, was willing to become a slave, throwing out his dignity and everything to beg for his life and surrender.

What kind of glory was this for the enslaver? Surely, even if he was trash, having him as a slave would be tempting.

At this moment, Ancestor Nereus Shard's life aura was dissipating. The karmic sin on his body had started to leave as well. However, Davis waved his hand in a grasping motion.

Davis collected karmic sin from Ancestor Nereus Shard. As for the others, it wasn't worth mentioning. But at this moment, he could feel that he possessed a twelve-meter tall reserve of karmic sin on his body, making his lips twitch.

However, it was not because the karmic sin decreased but because it had evolved into something else. When he absorbed the Ravaging Crimson Star Spirit's karmic sin, the karmic sin had already become thirty-three meters tall, appearing dark crimson in color. Further on, no matter how much he absorbed, there was no change but thought that it was due to how little quantities of karmic sin he absorbed from many beings, but now, it became bright red and was twelve meters tall, looking as though it had undergone a significant yet ominous change.

He didn't know what this exactly was but could tell that it was probably a higher form of karmic sin and felt that he would be punished more by the heavens with stronger and deadlier Heavenly Flames if it was found out by the heavens during his heavenly tribulation, causing him to shudder ever so lightly.

Nonetheless, he simultaneously collected their corpses and spatial rings. He subsequently bound Ancestor Nereus Shard's spatial ring and began to check.

Instantly, a soul attack surged from the spatial ring, but Davis forcefully crushed it and continued as though nothing had happened because the attack wasn't even powerful to kill a Mid-Level Emperor Soul Stage Powerhouse. Nonetheless, as it came in contact with the soul during binding, it would be a sneak attack and could even cause a Mid-Level Emperor Soul Stage Powerhouse to die.

It was vicious, but to Davis, it was nothing. He continued to check.

There were about 76 Peak-Level Spirit Stone Vein Sources, which put a blatant smile on his face, not because of this small number which he wouldn't mind about but knowing that there were probably two hundred plus Peak-Level Spirit Stone Vein Sources in the killing formation outside, ready to be plundered.

Moreover, there were many sword techniques in this spatial ring, and even the strong ones that were regarded as core techniques were ample. It was a pity that he didn't concentrate on the sword. Otherwise, he would try to learn them. However, he didn't dwell on it too much and found the thing he was looking for and took it out.

It was a sword, appearing wooden with sharp edges on the end. It possessed no attack power but could still be used to slit a throat or two below the Ninth Stage. However, its true usefulness lay in the fact that it was the core of this temple.

Binding it with his soul, he instantly made a connection with the temple. However, there was simply no power, not even a tinge of energy, for him to make use of a single formation here.

'Figures…'

Davis didn't know what he expected, considering Ancestor Nereus Shard just used the last bit of energy in a desperate attempt to kill him.

Not staying here anymore, he flew out and waved his hand. Instantly, the sword temple trembled and shrunk, turning into a ray of light as it shot towards him and disappeared, leaving behind a wake of dust and dirt swirling around the sudden vacant space.

However, Davis was staring at the Soaring Emperor Sword, which unleashed a hostile intent but didn't attack.

"I see. So you can be controlled if you enter that temple. No wonder you didn't enter."

Davis chuckled and ignored it. He rushed towards the exit and left this mini-realm while the Soaring Emperor Sword diligently yet cautiously followed him.

Once he was outside, he was met with the curvy figure of a dark green-robed woman. The mature features on her face were attractive, and her expression was indifferent. However, there was a hint of sorrow gleaming in her eyes.

"Did you find the true face of your lover?" Davis couldn't help but ask, his face devoid of the fickle sense of pleasure he had in killing vile people.

The middle-aged woman trembled before she nodded her head.

"I killed your lover."

"…"

"Do you want to see him one last time?"

"…"

Davis prompted, but there was no answer from the woman. Just a pair of dead eyes, one that made him feel pity and could cause men to have the intent to protect her. However, he shook his head, took a step forward, and left, rushing past her.

"Why…?"

After some time, the middle-aged woman lowered her head and asked as though why he didn't deal her the killing blow. Her body started to shudder before tears continuously fell from her eyes, staining her face and falling on her robes.

She was none other than Ancestor Ambercrown of the Jade Lotus Valley, whom Ancestor Shard fooled.

Davis was at the core of the killing formation at this moment.

Since he held the core, he easily deactivated it and retrieved about 280 Peak-Level Spirit Stone Vein Sources from it. However, up to thirty percent of the energy inside them had been used up. Of course, the energy used would be naturally restored in a few years as Vein Sources innately absorb energy from the heaven and earth and produce Vein Fragments which then produce Spirit Stones.

However, he couldn't wait that long.

Davis felt that in a few years, accurately, three or four years that he would be looking down on Peak-Level Spirit Stone Vein Sources or would have ended up dead. Therefore, he thought of feeding these energy sources to Nadia. Only she can absorb the energy within them insanely fast and make use of it to increase their group's overall prowess.

With an internal agreement to his thoughts, he headed towards the Treasury and broke into it. However, he only took the core arts containing inscriptions, pill recipes, sword forging methods and didn't touch anything else. He could see every sword technique was just a copy while Nereus Shard held everything, so he left them at that.

There were only ten Peak-Level Spirit Stone Vein Cores to be found, and that pretty much summed up that the Shards used up everything and stole whatever remained for themselves. The Emperor Sword Sect was utterly ruined because of them that Davis felt more than a pity that he left those ten Peak-Level Spirit Stone Vein Sources right there.

In any case, he already looted about 300 and more Peak-Level Spirit Stone Vein Sources from the Emperor Sword Sect. So, there was no need for him to leave this place desolate, right?

He didn't want to have an internal conflict and decided to leave just like that.

When he came out, the Soaring Emperor Sword disappeared. He sensed its location but knew that it decided to leave him alone because the killing formation was no longer supporting it. Moreover, it wasn't like it was afraid of him since it followed him into the mini-realm while not having the support of the killing formation, but it was more like it ran out of steam, returning to rest.

In any case, Davis wanted to do nothing to it as he saw it was a loyal sword that only protected the Emperor Sword Sect and not the Shard Family. Heck, it even killed the Shard Family people for him during their battle. Who knows whether it was intentional or not? Perhaps, it possessed resentment towards them for suppressing and forcing it but didn't have the opportunity to unleash it until he came by.

Nonetheless, as he flew over, he saw some people looting the spatial rings of the Grand Elders he killed with Death Rays. At the same time, they froze upon seeing him, trembling from head to toe.

"You people actually dare to take my things?"

Davis's cold voice echoed, causing all of them to abandon the spatial rings and run to the shelter of the defensive formations, which they thought could protect them but didn't they know that if he didn't avoid their locations while battling with the Soaring Emperor Sword, they wouldn't be alive.

However, there was one person who stood trembling, gritting his teeth as he stared at Davis with a courageous expression.

"No! This is ours! These are rings belonging to our Emperor Sword Sect! The Shard Family monopolized all the treasures in the Treasury and used for themselves, and now you're not even leaving anything for us!?"

"Ahahah!"

Davis blinked, wondering if this person was cursing him or begging before he finally couldn't help but laugh, his voice sending shivers down their spine.

"Finally, a man with a backbone. Maybe you can lead the Emperor Sword Sect to a better future, although I just capsized it."

"What? Me…?"

That man who wore the robes of an Elder shuddered as he realized the weight of those words. He was the only person with High-Level Law Rune Stage Cultivation remaining in this place while the others ran and hid behind the defensive formations.

But, Davis just continued, "However, the Treasury remains intact, and so does your Legacy Artifact, which has returned to rest. In any case, it's all your decision if you want to disband or rebuild and continue cultivating in this sect. My grudge with the Shard Family has ended, so I won't bother you people anymore unless you want some tasty yet cold revenge. Do you want to avenge the Shard Family?"

Davis asked in a humorous tone to which the man felt a bone-chilling aura creep up his spine as he hurriedly shook his head.

"Good. The others should bear the same thoughts as him or be prepared to face the consequences."

He panned his gaze and smiled eerily.

The next moment, he suddenly disappeared amidst everyone's gaze, leaving utterly devastated ruins of the Emperor Sword Sect and hundreds and thousands of cultivators who thought that they survived a disaster, not knowing they were going to face severe trials from all sides as they're could no longer describe themselves as a hegemon.
