Divine Emperor of Death

Chapter 2418 Ripples

"Me?" The little girl pointed at herself, blinking as she opened her mouth, "I'm here for a… uhm… uh… almost a hundred thousand years."

Davis's brows raised, "Then why haven't you left yet? Isn't it boring and lonely here?"

"Hhmhm~ Mother said that I can only come out after I become an imm-"

The little girl lowered her head and sadly uttered but abruptly narrowed her brows like him.

"You… you're conning me, aren't you?"

"Aha, of course not. In fact, if I wanted to con you, wouldn't I ask for more fruits?"

"Ah? Yes."

The tree girl took her stretched head back, her expression churning with confusion.

On the other hand, Davis was truly shaken. This tree had a mother?

That kind of existence could be at the Immortal King Stage or even at the Immortal Emperor Stage.

If he were to hypothesize, he would think that the mother of this tree planted the seed here and created this secret realm for her child to grow. This little girl also claimed that some people tried to burn or harm her, but the fact that she was standing here before him meant that they failed, or rather, she killed them.

"So anyways~ With the way you acted, you seem like one of those old fogeys my mother told me to be careful about. Whatever thoughts you have on me, I suggest you throw them out of your mind."

The black-robed girl took a defensive pose against him, appearing to be threatened.

Davis couldn't help but chuckle again, "After I ate the tasteless Void Dust Tree Fruit, what use are you off to me?"

"Hmph! Don't lie. Otherwise, you wouldn't have remained and checked me out."

"Uh…" Davis felt that sounded wrong before he shook his head, "… that was supposed to be a feint but whatever. I am not interested in you, so go back to your tree trunk or whatever core you see fit."

"You intruders are always greedy, trying to take away my cultivation resource yet displaying no gratitude in return. Hmph!~"

The black-robed girl looked unamused as she turned and headed back.

"Wait!" Davis suddenly raised his hand, stopping her as she turned around to look.

"Is there any other exit I can use?"

"Uh? Well, there is, and I could make you one if you want- no, if you nicely ask me." The black-robed girl's expression changed.

Although it was vague, Davis could see that it was a gloating expression while her voice just gave it away. He inhaled more spatial air, pursing his lips.

So this is what it means to shoot oneself in the foot.

Shaking his head, he smiled, "How about I hasten your growth as payment?"

"My mother was right. You are trying to con me."

The little girl harrumphed, losing all interest as she turned around and left.

"Suit yourself."

Davis didn't pursue that matter. In his mind, it was the tree girl that lost out. Besides, he got to hear a good thing.

'So there's another exit...'

Perhaps she lied, but if it was there, finding it shouldn't be troublesome for his soul body, or so he thought.

Since time was of the essence, he quickly dispatched a soul body with a spatial ring to obtain treasures and look for the other exit and moved in to take the void dust soil, and when he took around forty percent, the Void Dust Tree girl appeared once more and screamed at him to leave her alone and that he was affecting her growth if he took more.

Davis apologized as he was indeed taking her resources, causing her to become calm and look at Davis once again, but she didn't say anything as she returned.

His soul sense surveyed as far as it could multiple times before he confirmed that no one was near and everyone had left for the exit. He wasn't worried they would exit and inform the elders because the exit would only open at the end of the ninth day.

Moreover, the window was around an hour, enough for everyone to exit.

Until then, almost all forms of communication were sealed. Even he couldn't contact Nadia. However, life jades would still be broken when one died. That was a karmic reaction.

Soon, he plundered Klein Zyrus's spatial ring. Instantly, his eyes went wide as he saw a Life Ring inside the spatial ring. The fact that it was inside a spatial ring could only mean that it was empty but also at Early Immortal Grade since weak talismans of that grade also seemed to work here.

However, Davis still couldn't help but rejoice.

He had obtained a Life Ring that was difficult to obtain. Honestly, he would've stolen Haijin Minn's Life Ring as compensation for letting him go if it weren't for the women inside. At that time, he wouldn't be merely a plunderer but a kidnapper if he had chosen to take it.

Nonetheless, stripping Klein Zyrus clean of his valuables, there was only his karmic sin and unique soul essence left.

However, Davis didn't immediately kill him. Instead, he implanted a slave seal that quickly latched onto Klein Zyrus. Now, if Klein Zyrus tried to escape or even kill himself, it was almost impossible.

He gained some distance from the Void Dust Tree and sat down on dry land with little void dust.

But the next moment, a huge desert of void dust soul filled the space around him.

The Void Dust Tree girl came out to see what was going on as she sensed the disturbance in the distance.

Looking at Davis appear wasteful as he wasn't a spirit to be able to absorb this much void dust soil in a short time, she couldn't help but pout. It was her resource. To not even make efficient use of it made her feel aggrieved.

Did he intend to show that it didn't belong to her anymore?

Just as she fumed, she noticed that he had entered a meditative state with the void dust soil resonating with him. The next second, she felt that this human was strange, not fitting the description of a human.

"Wait… he's refining the void dust soul as a source of energy…?"

She couldn't help but feel doubtful, but before long, she flinched on the branch, almost falling down.

*Rumble!!!~*

The Void Dust Tree shook, and an intense breeze kicked up, causing countless leaves to dance in the wind while the branches were waving as though it was caught up in a storm.

"Wha- What's going on!?"

She raised her head up, looking at the starry skies crack ever so lightly.

The secret realm rumbled, causing thousands of heads to look into the skies. It was as though the ceiling was going to collapse, causing many youths to become scared as they made their way to the exit while Erin Goldsun and the others practically sped up, leaving little time for treasures on the way.

The Void Dust Tree girl adorably blinked.

Seeing that nothing had happened, she couldn't help but sigh in relief. But the next moment, her pupils dilated as she saw an enormous ripple tear through space.

*Rippp!~*

Spatial ripples blossomed like a wildflower in the skies, but at the same time, the tear was fast approaching the surface.

*Bang!~*

A hand clasped onto the spatial tear, or rather, a dull green blade. It got stuck, unable to cleave past the fingers that held it in place with ease.

"It's been a long time, heavenly wind..."

Davis's lips curved into a faint smile.

The next second, when he clenched his hand, the heavenly wind blade that carried an enormous amount of power and sharpness enough to cleave a Level Two Immortal existence practically cracked!
