Divine Emperor of Death

Chapter 4843  Exiting The Twilight Space

Qiyra Darkstar looked at the dying Realm Master within the spatial core.

However, she didn't deign to witness his end and turned around to quickly leave. She knew Venerable Knights would soon be here, so she didn't dally. She quickly retreated, her speed even more insane in the twilight space.

She quickly caught up to Davis and Illumina as she wrapped them around in her energy with a wave of her hand, clasping them within her fist as she took them away.

Davis and Illumina were startled.

A True Deity-level speed was indeed insane.

Qiyra Darkstar had just disappeared from their view, but three seconds later, she was already by their side.

*Whoosh!~*

Even with his current strength, Davis couldn't retaliate at all. He was dragged along with Illumina until they made it out of the twilight space, whereupon her power was drastically reduced until she was no longer a match for the Realm Master of this realm.

Now she was just as strong as the Venerable Knights and Illumina.

Illumina wordlessly shattered Qiyra Darkstar's grasp and carried Davis herself respectfully as she transformed into a spectral rabbit and made him sit on her head.

Qiyra Darkstar didn't pay any heed.

She shot forwards and Illumina continued to follow after giving Davis a brief check with her divine sense, reassured that he wasn't injured.

Between these two Exalt beauties, Davis felt pampered.

Perhaps he could just relax like this, and he would be at home faster than he could realize?

While thinking of amusing things, he returned his gaze to Qiyra Darkstar's hands, his pupils reflecting the ordinary ring she wore. His gaze then fell on her veiled face.

"Many thanks for rescuing me. I guess I owe Saintess Lunaria a huge favor, uhm…"

Davis gestured at her hesitantly, not sure how to address a grand being like her. Although he could sense she was still an Exalt, most likely an Omega Exalt, her true prowess had reached the True Deity Stage.

It was just the layer limit that suppressed her.

He imagined the Venerable Knights also reached such a level, but they were also suppressed by the layer limit, unlike the sixteen Realm Masters and certain unknown exceptions.

It just so happened that Qiyra Darkstar happened to be an exception with that ring on her finger.

He was highly curious as to what it was and also wanted it. If he could get it, he could assure that his family would never be threatened here in the future, but he was sure she needed it just as much as he needed it.

"Qiyra is fine." She responded indifferently after a brief pause.

Davis cupped his hands, "Fairy Qiyra, once again, I am extremely grateful for the help, but first, we need to hide or escape even faster. I imagine you came from far away. Is it possible that you can use the same method to take me back?"

"Can't do." Qiyra Darkstar continued to look straight ahead, "I need time."

"How much time?"

"A while."

"How long is that?"

"A while."

"…"

Davis shut his mouth after that, belatedly realizing that he was prying too much since cultivation wouldn't reveal their escape methods easily.

The more confident and the more elderly cultivators were, the more easily they would expose how their powers worked in an attempt to bask in the glory while leaving everyone in awe, only to end up getting countered. The ones he faced in the tribulation were like them, but it seems like Qiyra Darkstar was the careful type like him.

"Then hiding is the only option," Davis said lightly.

No matter how he thought, they weren't outrunning the Venerable Knights, but the most important one was-

"Is Malzor Hexadra dead?" He asked.

Qiyra Darkstar shook her head, "Unlikely."

Davis's lips curled, "It's good that he didn't die so I can return the favor later, but how many souls did he lose then?"

"Zero."

"Zero!?" Davis appeared startled.

"Impossible," He said with a hoarse voice, "At the last moment, his power spiked greatly, nearly overcoming your aura. That wasn't a feat that could be accomplished without burning a lot of blood-soul essence. I suspect that he even sacrificed one of his souls to gain that kind of power."

"True," Qiyra Darkstar finally turned to look at him, her silver eyes dazzling and breathtaking.

She raised her hand, displaying her finger, "This is similar to the one you have as junior sister Myria mentioned, but it is from a different apex treasure which lords over light and darkness. This ring summons a twilight space that covers a trillion kilometers. In this space, whatever happens could end up getting nulled."

"Huh?" Davis sounded dumbfounded.

Whatever happens… gets nullified?

"In other words, even if you had died, you really wouldn't have died. The one who died would be the Divine Emperor of Death of the Twilight. As for you, it would still be possible for me to save you."

For the first time, Qiyra Darkstar spoke in a lengthy manner, but it stunned Davis beyond compare, making him wobble on top of Illumina, nearly falling off of her.

Qiyra Darkstar's lips moved faintly, "What's real there is not real here. What's real here is not real there. That is the essence of the twilight space. Naturally, not many can take advantage of it, but Realm Master Malzor Hexadra is truly a formidable opponent."

"He is not an Absolute Primarch for nothing. His deep comprehension of Darkness Laws allows him to tap into the powers of twilight summoned by the ring and invert his death, but I doubt he is dead in the first place. He can make it so that none of his souls died in that space."

"…" Davis was speechless.

However, he blamed himself since if Fairy Qiyra wasn't focused on saving him, then she could've suppressed Realm Master Malzor Hexadra to death in the twilight space, but then escaping from the Venerable Knights would've been difficult.

Ultimately, she made the best move, which was to retreat as soon as she critically injured Realm Master Malzor Hexadra in one move.

However, he noticed something peculiar in her response.

"So Fairy Qiyra means that you aren't in full control of the ring and by extension, the twilight space?" He asked.

Qiyra Darkstar raised her hand, displaying her finger.

"Can't you see? It's broken. Now that I've used it, I can't use it again for a long time."

Davis's lips parted as he perspired, 'We're fucked without that twilight space…'

He swallowed hard and instantly said, "Then we'd better get out of the Six-Headed Hydra Upper Realm first!"

"No, we hide first and recover enough to traverse through astral stars." Qiyra Darkstar's voice was solemn and commanding.

"Well, I hope you have a good concealment formation or techniques." Davis wryly chuckled.

He had lost a Peak-Level Exalt Grade Concealment Formation disc back there, and he didn't think they could hide from Realm Master Malzor Hexadra if he were to come back again.

However, once bitten, twice shy.

Fearing Qiyra Darkstar's ability, Realm Master Malzor Hexadra wouldn't dare to face her again easily. Most importantly, he didn't know that Qiyra Darkstar could only use the ring once in a period of time.

Or did she lie? Davis felt she was as mystical as she hid matters deliberately.

Clearly, Fairy Qiyra Darkstar was wary of him. It was understandable since they didn't know each other very well, but either way, she was willing to save him due to her master's instructions, so he was still grateful.

In any case, he guessed Realm Master Malzor Hexadra wouldn't easily show up again. He might send his avatar first to check things out.

Qiyra Darkstar looked ahead, scanning the region with her divine sense before she uttered, "I've been hiding ever since I entered the True Immortal World."

"Alright, I believe you, Fairy Qiyra. It's just…" Davis hesitated a bit.

"What?"

"I didn't know you could talk a lot."

"…" Qiyra Darkstar turned to glare at him with her silver eyes, "I'm not socially awkward."

'I didn't say anything…' Davis looked away as he did not want to get blasted. He imagined her junior disciples had already teased her for being silent all the time.
