Divine Emperor of Death

Chapter 20

”Mom, Iʼve did it!” Davis animatedly exclaimed .

”Youʼve made mom gratified, Davis . ” Claire smiled proudly .

”Congratulations, Prince Davis, you have taken the first step to cultivation, earlier than anyone else Iʼve known . ” Hendrickson nodded in acknowledgment . He didnʼt expect this naïve looking childʼs tenacity to be this high .

”Thank you, Hendrickson . ”

Hendrickson nodded even more appreciatively . He didnʼt call him ʼMissʼ this time .

Davis got out of the bathtub . He then excitedly stretched his limbs . He can feel that his body was filled with overflowing power that he never experienced in his life before .

Hendrickson commented . ”Good, unlike the other two Cultivation Systems where you accumulate energy and advance slowly, cultivating in Body Tempering Cultivation, you only need resources and resolve to advance, but It only gets harder and difficult as you advance . ” He shook his head lamenting the fact that he still finds it difficult to break into Gold Stage .

”Davis, thereʼs a strength gauging equipment over there . Go punch it . ” Claire said .

Davis moved to that equipment and punched it normally .

*Bang*

ʼ532 kgʼ

Davis then punched with all his strength .

*Bang*

ʼ1021 kgʼ

ʼWoah! Goddamn, this is so awesomeʼ Davis was excited inwardly .

”Davis, perform the First Layer technique of Tyrant Body Secrets . ” Claire looked forward to his performance .

Davis nodded, he started gathering power in his right fist, reddish brown aura suddenly covered his right arm and he punched forward with all his might .

ʼ5164 kgʼ

”Good, with the Tyrant Aura Amplification, you could even rival Low Level Bronze Stage cultivators in power . For those who cultivate in an Earth Grade Body Cultivating Manual, you could rival a High Level Copper Stage cultivator in power . ” Hendrickson commented

”But, if I were to face a Low Level Copper Stage cultivator who cultivates in a Sky Grade Body Cultivating Manual, wonʼt we be evenly matched?”

”Yes, but that also depends on the Manual that the other person is cultivating in, even Sky Grade Manuals have levels . ”

”Of course, it even includes your individual battle prowess too . ” Hendrickson added .

Davis sighed . ʼLooks like Iʼm only powerful in Soul Cultivation . ʼ

”But by the time you reach Gold Stage gradually, you would have developed a Tyrant Physique which even increases your strength and defense double the times . ”

”At that time, no one in Gold Stage will be your opponent . Thatʼs why itʼs named as Tyrant . ”

”Hmm? Canʼt I achieve the Tyrant Physique now?” Davis asked curiously with a confused expression .

”The Loret Empire doesnʼt have that kind of resources, well, it had before, but for now, there are no whereabouts of the Mystic Tyrant Fruit . I will inform your father if we find one . ”

Davis eyeʼs shone brightly . ʼLooks like I still have hope . ʼ

”Alright, you just have to cultivate like this till you reach the Peak Level . If you find yourself in stumped in front of any bottlenecks, you can visit me in this Chamber, in the morning . At other times, I wonʼt be available . ” Hendrickson informed .

”Okay!” Davis nodded .

”Davis, letʼs go . ” Claire held Davis .

”Hmm . ”

They both then left .

… . .

In the Empressʼs quarters .

”Brother!” A baby jumped excitedly in itʼs cradle .

She was one and a half years old and 30 inches tall . Her face was chubby and extremely cute . Her cute purple eyes glowed mystically as if it could see through lies . Her short blonde hair was silky smooth .

”Clara! Your Brother is here!” Davis hurriedly ran towards her, pinched her cheeks and tickled her .

”Haaha . . no . haha” Clara laughed .

Davis lifted her up and held her . He then turned to Claire .

”Mom, Iʼm so sorry, I shouldnʼt have jinxed it . ” Davis was extremely regretful .

”Itʼs fine . Atleast . . itʼs a good thing . ” Claire sighed .

Clara had a set of unique eyes from her birth . After one year, they discovered that her eyes were glowing . The three of them panicked and later when they researched about it, they calmed down .

Clara had the Transcendent Truth Eyes . It could see through lies and deceit . If she manages to perfect that power then no one could lie in front of her .

”The only problem now us that her eyes lit up randomly . Sheʼs just a baby, she couldnʼt possibly control it . ” Claire couldnʼt help but worrying .

”It will be fine Mom, when she grows up, she should be able to control it . After all, the records mentioned that those who possesses Transcendent Truth Eyes are natural born rulers . ” Davis stated proudly .

”Hmm, youʼre right . ” Claire nodded but her face showed otherwise . Such is the fate of a mother .

”Mother, you can rest today, Iʼll start cultivating Essence Gathering Cultivation tomorrow . ”

”If you say so . ” She smiled .

”But in exchange, you have to tell me about that treasure, you said that we have it in our Treasury . ” Davis asked excitedly, the name itself seems grand .

”Alright . ” Claire couldnʼt help but laugh, her son seems to be extremely interested in Treasures .

”The Fallen Extinction Lightning was captured by our previous Emperor, your grandfather . He went singlehandedly and captured it from the Lightning Fall Mountains that is very far from our Empire . But during the battle, sadly, he underestimated the Fallen Extinction Lightning, he was grievously wounded but he still managed to capture the Sky Grade Lightning Elemental . ”

”So, my grandfather, the previous Emperor died from injuries? How can it be? He was so powerful, more powerful than father!” Davis couldnʼt believe that a mere injury could make his grandfather succumb to death . His grandfather was in the fifth step of all the cultivation systems after all .

”Unfortunately, the Fallen Extinction Lightning possesses corrosive and annihilation properties . He succumbed to the corrosive injuries that the Fallen Lightning Star left behind in his body . ” Claire sighed .

”Since grandfather went to hunt it down then he shouldʼve known the properties behind the Fallen Extinction Lightning . I donʼt believe that grandfather didnʼt investigate before . ” Davis shook his head .

Claire sighed . ”In fact, he did, but the information was outdated . He originally went to hunt a Peak Level Earth Grade Silent Extinction Lightning for the First Princeʼs son, but by the time he discovered that, it had already evolved to a Sky Grade Fallen Extinction Lightning . Everything was for naught . ” She shook her head sadly .
