Divine Emperor of Death

Chapter 2258: Cataclysmic Descent

*Rumble!!!~*

Cataclysmic undulations descended unto the Fifty-Two Territories, a heavy and oppressive aura causing trillions of life to shudder.

Despair crept onto the denizens of the world, humans, magical beasts, spirits, and feys alike, as they looked at the monstrosity trying to enter their world.

Many legs went limp, and some even smashed their heads on the ground. They kowtowed, asking forgiveness from the heavens, and wished to be saved from this cruel fate.

In one of the Alstreim Familyʼs wealthy residential blocks, Granduncle Daniuis and the others were watching this scene with utter disbelief in their eyes. The children were crying, bawling out their eyes as they hid behind the giant shadow of their parents.

On the balcony stood two lovers, holding hands as they saw this incredulous scene. The black-haired woman couldnʼt help but shed a tear as a wry smile appeared on her face. She turned to look at the man beside him, moving her lips.

”Glyn, I canʼt lose you again...”

”Lose me…? If it was only me dying again...”

ʼHow good would it be…?ʼ Glyn turned to look into Luciaʼs eyes, not finishing his words as he gently smiled at her and caressed her cheek.

Lucia sought solace in his touch, but she closed her eyes and opened them, suddenly looking determined as she grasped his wrist and took him inside.

”…?”

Glyn gawked, wondering why she was clenching him so hard and pulling him away into her room but abruptly found himself towering above Lucia on the bed, their expressions red with a mild blush.

”Embrace me…”

Luciaʼs lips moved, and the softness of that voice couldnʼt be described, causing Glyn to feel a tempting chill.

”Lucia…” He voiced out with intense desire gleaming in his eyes.

Although everyone accepted their relationship, they hadnʼt married, nor had they gone beyond holding hands.

However, just when he was about to kiss her, he held himself back and got away from the bed, but he didnʼt do so alone as he hauled Lucia along with him before they stood beside the bed, looking at each otherʼs eyes.

”Iʼm already a loser, but never in this world do I wonʼt take advantage of you! Just you wait…! Iʼll only embrace you only after I become stronger than you, and for that, I believe that boss will win…!”

Lucia became stunned, her lips curving down as tears emerged, but at the same time, her embarrassment knew no bounds as she pounced towards him and embraced him.

”Shameless bastard… you like to keep me waiting, donʼt you!?”

”I do. Just like you waited for me, Iʼll endure my desire for you until I am finally worthy of your undying love.”

Glyn declared as he remembered his vow to her, causing Lucia to shed tears of joy that she really thought she was satisfied in this life even if she were to die now.

On the other hand, Glyn had a determined expression on his face.

How could he break it just because they were going to die!? But in truth…

ʼBoss…! Please… donʼt die… and… save us all… save Lucia if not anything… if possible…ʼ

He deeply wished in his heart as he was truly scared, his attitude as though he was praying to a deity.

Glyn had no idea, but billions of people wished the same at this moment as they watched the projection, either praying towards the heavens or the Emperor of Death.

Evelynn and the others were no different, having their hands clasped in intense worry as they wished for him to save them. However, they also wished for another thing, that is…

In the skies of the Vital Tempering Sect, Davis, who pointed at the Immortal King Vacuous Beast, suddenly shook as a frail hand grasped his shoulder.

”Shall we retreat once and for all?”

Davis turned to look at Shirley, a forlorn yet smiling expression appearing on her face.

To him, it was clear Shirley and even the others back home didnʼt want to lose him, even if it meant the death of the world.

Heck, before she had to say this, he knew she mustʼve thought about the Burning Phoenix Ridge and even Lea. There was literally no time to get them that only he could possibly risk his life to go out and get her back.

*Whizz!~* *Whizz!~* *Whizz!~*

Wind blades tore the skies, causing many Vacuous Beasts to falling apart like they were in a grinder.

Other than Nadia, Founder Alstreim did his best to keep Davis and Shirley safe. However, his mysterious and all-powerful descendant, although he looked horrified, still didnʼt seem to lose hope. This caused his heart to not waver and allowed him to continue to defend them, wondering what kind of plan his descendant had in mind, but once Shirley suggested for them retreat, his heart fell.

He couldnʼt help but momentarily glance in the direction of the Burning Phoenix Ridge.

ʼWould she… would they be safe…?ʼ

Davis blinked at Shirley before he shook his head. His panic also widely fell after being soothed by Shirleyʼs forlorn look, causing him to smile.

”Tell everyone to stay put. Weʼre not going to flee.”

”…” Shirley couldnʼt help but be stunned.

It wasnʼt like he was planning on doing something… suicidal, right?

Davis turned to look at the skies as he released Eldia.

Her sexy purple-skinned figure flashed, swimming through the Vacuous Beasts as she made a mess out of them like Davis

However, they were still connected by the second level of Prismatic Intramural Soul-Spirit Pact, but the increase was not twelve percent but six percent. Her silver radiance traveled like a flexible shooting star, causing tens of Vacuous Beasts approaching them to die and plunge towards the ground.

While Eldia, Founder Alstreim, and Nadia took over the Vacuous Beasts while Shirley also threw an ice and fire bomb, Davisʼs voice resounded in his soul sea.

”Explain what exactly is going on, Lereza. After this, youʼre definitely listening to my words, or youʼll have a glimpse of what it feels like to be at the other end of my wrath.”

”Iʼll answer you anything you want other than the things I canʼt speak about…!”

”Very well.” Davisʼs brows narrowed, ”What makes you think that Immortal King can descend but not you?”

”I already told you about why I canʼt get out. As for the Immortal King Vacuous Beast, thatʼs because I feel a karmic connection performed between three entities when theyʼre actually one, situated in different worlds.”

Lereza carefully chose her words, continuing to explain with a bit of uncertainty.

”Iʼm not entirely sure, but hear me out. From outside the First Haven World, that hateful person is suppressing the Fifty-Two Territories Grand Formation while not being subjected to the suppression. This causes the second entity, one that is in an encounter with Myria, to act as a beacon while the third entity, the Immortal King Vacuous Beast, to be able to follow that beacon and remain unrestricted.”

”However, we can see that the third entity is still caught, struggling to enter. This technique is not perfect and must be something devised to use at this moment, causing unknown vulnerabilities to appear in the formation at this moment. Utmost, after it broke through the grand formationʼs restriction, it could exist for a few minutes before being slain by the grand formation, but that interval alone enough for it to lay waste to the Fifty-Two Territories…!”

Lerezaʼs voice went up by a few octaves in panic.

However, instead of causing Davis to be stifled, it made him smile, ”I see...”

”In that case, my plan has a ninety-nine percent success rate.”

”What!?” Lereza became stupefied before she let out a noise of realization, ”Ah! Donʼt tell me… you… you canʼt use it on someone like him…! The collapse from that point onwards will undoubtedly lead to your death! Not only yours but everyone beside you!”

”Itʼs fine.”

Davisʼs smile receded as he raised both his hands. Two objects shot out of him, hovering in mid-air side by side. They appeared different in color but radiated a similar air as their undulations were almost the same.

To Shirley, who was watching this scene, she could see or sense nothing. However, an iridescent vortex abruptly appeared over the two objects, glowing with a bright intensity that caused her to close her eyes, but even then, the light radiating from it was so much that she hurriedly blocked her closed eyes with her arm.

Three seconds later, the light receded but what filled her view was two giant birds hovering in the air. They possessed gorgeous icy-white or scarlet feathers atop their heads and neck, one possessing attractive blazing-red eyes that contained a passionate yet explosive charm while the other calm-cold icy-blue eyes radiated an intense chill and piercing charm.

”…!”

Shirley inwardly screamed with disbelief written all over her face, her lips quivering with incredulity as she recognized these two phoenix figures!
