Divine Emperor of Death

Chapter 4195  Realm Core Obtained?

Tina and Calypsea walked to the giant Realm Core.

To their approach, the Realm Core rumbled in response, sending out strange waves.

Davis watched this scene and felt that the Realm Core Spirit could sense Calypsea approaching but had no idea what Calypsea intended to do to it since she wasnʼt showing any ill intent. Otherwise, the Whispering Wildlands Realm Master would be alarmed.

After all, he heard that the Verdant Vale Realm Master, Thousand Windblades, was instantly alarmed when Calypsea locked on to the Realm Core and directed hostile intent. It was reported that he had directly abandoned the battlefield to chase after Calypsea in order to stop her.

Looking at the Whispering Wildlands Realm Masterʼs calm expression, Davis figured the Realm Core wasnʼt truly alarmed.

Tina and Calypsea neared the Realm Core, and the Whispering Wildlands Realm Master finally weaved some hand signs.

”Is this fine?” He asked.

Davis nodded, ”Do it.”

”…”

The Whispering Wildlands Realm Master went speechless.

He had heard the Divine Emperor of Death was quite the womanizer, but he didnʼt think he would go this far.

Was he not afraid this woman would take over the realm and never give it back or even simply ruin whatever plan he had in mind?

The Whispering Wildlands Realm Master didnʼt understand, but he already signed the True Soul Contract. Going back on it would just harm him.

He asked no more and decisively severed his connection with the Realm Core. There wasnʼt any specific process whatsoever other than feeling a lot weaker than before because the Realm Coreʼs power would no longer be with him. He would no longer be empowered by this realm.

There were lots of rituals conducted when handing over the Realm Core to the next heir. However, there was no need to do that since he was renting to an outsider. He directly severed the connection Realm Core, causing the crystalline spherical structure to release waves of energy.

A white light began to flicker below the sphere, indicating that it could be bound.

”Now.”

The Whispering Wildlands Realm Master spoke as he staggered behind with a sorrowful expression. There were no negative effects on him other than a sense of loss because he had just given away his familyʼs most prized possession and couldnʼt imagine whether the decision he made was right or not.

Tina followed the cue and placed her hand on the Realm Core.

Instantly, she felt as though her energy was being sucked in, but she knew what to do as split a portion of her soul essence and sent it inside the crystalline surface of the Realm Core. It seeped in along with her energy, and she could quickly start to feel a sense of energy bubbling within her.

*Bzzz!~*

A golden light erupted from the Realm Core.

This light was known as the Light of Binding.

It surged all the way up, shooting through the vast cavern like a celestial pillar of light before bursting through the ceiling. The main palace above was fully lit up by golden light, dyeing the land and the skies like it was sunrise spreading its brilliance. Ethereal waves of energy pulsed throughout the atmosphere, sending ripples across the flying continent. They reached the cumulonimbus clouds.

However, the heaven and earth energy couldnʼt leave because this was an isolated space.

In the underground chamber, Tina shuddered ever so lightly as she felt a mark appear in her soul.

The mark appeared to be a simple circle, but it surprisingly made her feel complete. She floated in the air, suddenly releasing tumultuous undulations as her strength soared.

”The Realm Core has accepted a new master…” The Whispering Wildlands Realm Masterʼs brows raised as he looked shocked.

Not anyone could bind the realm. It was said that the more time it took to bind it, the more unworthy they were, but this woman did it in seven seconds, even faster than him, as he took three whole minutes and that was considered to be fast.

*Zhuhuhuhm~*

A deep, resonant hum echoed across the underground chamber as the golden light above coalesced into grand, sacred patterns—ancient symbols of authority that had not graced this realm ever since he had become the Realm Master.

These celestial-like runes revolved around the golden radiance, forming an enormous rune in the sky that radiated unparalleled might. It directly fell on Tina, seeping into her body. Her soul, her body, and her essence were constantly being nourished, and this would become the foundation for her prowess to undergo a tumultuous change.

Tina was already a Level Seven Immortal Emperor. She was a Late Stage Immortal Emperor with a base prowess that was eleven levels higher in Soul Forging Cultivation. With the addition of the Realm Coreʼs support, her prowess grew significantly.

Davis and the others possessed excited expressions on their faces.

They were aware for Immortal Emperors, the Lower Realm Core would provide four levels of battle prowess. For Empyreans, it was three levels higher.

If it was as they thought it was, then the battle prowess of Tinaʼs Soul Forging Cultivation soared to fifteen levels higher!

With the birth of a new Realm Master, the heaven and earth responded as they resonated, forming an auspicious phenomenon in the skies above.

Golden lotuses bloomed in the air, drifting like ephemeral dreams across the skies. Some landed on the land below, infusing the earth with vitality, while many dispersed within the air, causing more heaven and earth energy to spread across the continent.

The people outside were shocked as they recognized this phenomenon.

It meant a new Realm Master had taken the helm.

”There is nothing to worry about. This auspicious phenomenon cannot be seen outside the cumulonimbus clouds. Only the other unique phenomenon can be seen since its purpose is to attract, but that fairy was able to bind the Realm Core quickly, so there is essentially no chance of the outside world coming to know the changes that went here.”

The Whispering Wildlands Realm Master spoke in a calming voice.

”What about spies?” Davis asked.

He wondered if the people above would exchange information with outsiders.

”There are none.”

The Whispering Wildlands Realm Master uttered confidently. There was even a vague hint of pride.

”Good work, Esmond Stavenger.”

”Hmm.”

The Whispering Wildlands Realm Master nodded but suddenly turned to look at Davis with wide eyes. When had he ever introduced himself using his name!? He didnʼt even write it in the True Soul Contract!

Suddenly, the Divine Emperor of Death seemed more enigmatic than ever. He couldnʼt read his next moves, making his heart sink. He was no longer the Whispering Wildlands Realm Master, his power a mere fragment of what it previously was.

He could instantly enter the next cultivation level, which was Level Five Autarch Stage, but if he did something like that, not only would he be exposed that he was no longer the Realm Master to outsiders, but he might also never be able to bind it again due to the Third Layerʼs limit placed on prowess.

There was a secret that only the Realm Masters knew- which was that Empyreans and Autarchs who had bound the Realm Core for a hundred thousand years could rebind it if they lost connection with it. However, the limitation was that the Realm Core needed to be in an unbound state, and the rebinding had to be done within another hundred thousand years.

He was fine with it. After all, he would be rebinding the Realm Core after ten thousand years if everything went smoothly.

Hence, he cannot increase his cultivation to Level Five Autarch Stage.

”My turn~”

Suddenly, little Calypsea pounced and placed her hand on the Realm Coreʼs crystalline surface.

She opened her mouth, making weird noises that seemed to make no sense. However, there was a kind of rhythm to it that couldnʼt be traced.

Davis listened to it and couldnʼt understand a single thing, so he quickly gave up.

Sometime later, Calypsea turned to look at him and grinned gleefully.

”Master, the Realm Core Spirit agreed to offer me some melted essence~”

”Really?” Davisʼs brows went wide in excitement, ”Thatʼs great, Calypsea. Itʼs your achievement to be able to convince a Realm Core Spirit. What about the other thing I asked?”

”It said-”

”…”

While Calypsea and Davis were talking openly, Esmond Stavenger looked frozen as though he had heard something incredulous. It was not only him. The Grand Elders and even the Guardians who were near to death looked as though they were going to drop dead.
