Divine Emperor of Death

Nadia’s soul essence was spherical, just like his or any other human, to be exact. It glowed with a dark illumination.

If the soul essence is brought outside from the soul sea, it tends to take the shape of its host as if it were the DNA version of the soul.

Davis had seen this phenomenon before, and it momentarily made him think what exactly humans and magical beasts are, but his concentration brought him back.

He shaped his tentacle-like soul essence into a scalpel and carefully yet prudently cut a percent of her soul essence with precision before collecting it with his soul force.

Capturing with his tentacle-shaped soul force, he brought the tiny bit of soul essence out under Nadia’s unsteady gaze and moved it into the shelter that his soul force had created. A small opening was present on the square-shaped mold, and her tiny soul essence entered it before the opening closed. The square-shaped shelter glowed before it shot towards his soul sea, settling at a distance the was not far nor near to his soul essence.

Nadia wobbled in the air as she experienced for the first time how the severing of her soul essence felt. She couldn’t help reach her hands towards support as she felt herself plunging and disoriented.

Her face fell right on his chest as she held his shoulders.

Davis did not take offense as he knew what it was like to experience the severing of soul essence for the first time. He had Fallen heaven to thank for that and different from that time, she had been warned, and he wasn’t.

He held her shoulders back and steadied her posture and flight.

After ten seconds had passed, Nadia came back to herself and found herself... holding each other’s shoulders...

Instantly, her expression imperceptibly twitched before she took her hands away from his shoulders, "I’m fine now, master..."

"Good..." Davis nodded his head as he moved his senses to the pact that he arbitrarily held in his soul sea.

Inside the shelter, no, the prison held her soul essence, and with this, Nadia has basically become his servant with him being able to impose commands on her.

If Nadia didn’t like it, all she had to do was sever her connection with her tiny bit of soul essence in Davis’s soul sea and face a small backlash that would temporarily injure her soul.

Davis explained all this, and Nadia nodded her head in acceptance even though she heard it after being tied to the master-servant pact.

She could feel his presence even with her eyes closed since a part of her soul essence was within him, but she didn’t know that if Davis wanted to hide from her, it would be as easy as lifting his fingers as he would just have to use the death-like energy to encase the Transitory Beast Taming Pact.

Davis couldn’t help but size her up and ask.

"How do you feel being under this pact?"

He wanted to know how it felt to be under someone even though it felt hypocritical.

Nadia thought for a moment with a sincere expression on her face.

"Other than sensing master all the time, there isn’t any difference... but I think I felt compelled to answer master’s question just now..."

"Oh... You feel compelled to answer my question..." Davis beamed in satisfaction before he heard her speak.

"However, I feel that I can also reject the question if I want to..."

Davis nodded his head in response and let her know, "That’s right... You can reject the pact anytime you want..."

"Mnm, thank you, master..."

Nadia smiled meaningfully. However, Davis didn’t notice that.

He instead said, "Just call me by my name..."

"No!" Nadia reacted a bit exaggeratingly, "Master is master... I won’t call master by his name since I decided to become a magical beast mount by myself!"

Davis blinked at her reaction and uttered.

"Uh... Okay..."

Being called Master somewhat reminded him of the first time he met Ellia. He couldn’t help but feel nostalgic about her presence that was always beside him in the past.

He let out a sigh inversely inwardly and spoke, "Alright, I’m going to break through, and it should take a week or two, so use this chance wisely and start to practice your concealment and offensive techniques."

Nadia nodded her head, "Yes!"

But then she inclined her head in shock and thought doubtfully, ’Master is weaker than me, yet he has mysterious methods to subjugate Eighth Stage Experts?’

Since she was bound to him, his Soul Forging Cultivation became clearer to her senses. However, his other cultivation systems weren’t clear.

She remembered that her Master possessed High-Level Law Seed Stage Cultivation and High-Level Martial Ascendance Stage Cultivation, so she was confused as to which cultivation he was going to breakthrough...

However, she suddenly thought of the alpha, "Master! What if that alpha appeared while you’re breaking through!?"

"Haha, then let him come... I just can’t wait..." Davis laughed with a carefree expression and moved to the side of a mountain.

Using his semi-solid martial energy, he carved a Cultivation Cave for himself and set up the Low-Level Emperor Grade Concealment Formation that he obtained from one of his four slaves.

Davis’s lips curved in anticipation as he started to refine the recently killed Twin-Tailed Dusk Wolf’s Soul Essence.

======

A week passed.

Davis opened his eyes and looked at the dark cave and the bright-lit opening of the cave. He perceived the day to have just started since light seemed to be pouring in from the east side of the Sunset Tear Mountain.

He let out a refreshed breath and yawned in glee, rejoicing that he broke through to the Mid-Level Supreme Soul Stage!

He did not encounter any bottlenecks despite his lack of knowledge about the Mid-Level Supreme Soul Stage. He didn’t find this surprising since only a lack of knowledge regarding the next stage impeded him from breaking through, and not the next level.

At times, the moment he broke through, he would gain relevant comprehension of the level, but at times, it wouldn’t be the case. He concluded that it mostly depended on his foundation in Soul Forging Cultivation.

If his foundation were good and stable, then he would comprehend the mysteries of the soul when he broke through with the help of Fallen Heaven.

On the other hand, if his foundation wasn’t good, he wouldn’t comprehend the relevant mysteries and can only resort to manually comprehending the mysteries of the soul through resonating his soul with the heaven and earth energy.

Hence, Davis reveled in this breakthrough because he comprehended and caught up to the comprehension level of the Mid-Level Supreme Soul Stage!

His foundation remained extremely powerful and stable!

It was one of the advantages he gained after tempering his soul with the refined lightning energy of Derelict Extinction Lightning.

At the same time, Davis found himself comprehending another law besides Lightning Laws when he refined the Derelict Extinction Lightning at that time!

Thinking about that law, Davis closed his eyes again. He belatedly realized it, but when he concentrated his senses, he could perceive the death that was present in the valley below, the life that grew on the cliff of the mountain and even the wolves... Not to mention the connection they had between them.

However, it was all vague and incomprehensible for him, extremely chaotic. At least, for the time being, Davis couldn’t understand why he could perceive all this when he entered the law comprehension state he usually entered to comprehend Lightning Laws.

The things he felt, were those all laws?

Davis increasingly felt that it should be the case, but unless he could verify it with his comprehension, it was meaningless to think.

He stood up and deactivated the concealment formation before leaving the cave entrance. He looked at Nadia, who seemed to be quickly approaching in his direction from a distance.

He smirked as he knew that she likely perceived that he came out of seclusion when he moved with the soul connection they had.

"Master!"

Hearing her eager shout, he laughed, "Looks like that alpha got scared and didn’t dare come to visit?"

"Hehehe..."

Nadia giggled as she abruptly became illuminated in a dark glow, transitioning into her human form with brownish-black robes as she continued her giggle. Her bosoms shook along with her unruly laugh, making Davis blink in avoidance.
