Divine Emperor of Death Chapter 754: Vines Calamity

"Yes!"Valdrey Alstreim continued in a respectful tone, "On top of uncovering the Flowing Mist Sect's Yantra Family's sinister scheme, there's another major development that came to our notice, but it's already too late..."Valdrey Alstreim couldn't help but sigh after he said this piece of news.Looking at Valdrey Alstreim's expression that was not stricken with panic or fear, Ancestor Dian Alstreim blinked once before asking, "So did we completely lose the chance to gain benefits, Grand Elder Valdrey Alstreim?""Yes..." Grand Elder Valdrey Alstreim's voice echoed as he shot a look at Havle Alstreim."This junior knows his wrong..." Havle Alstreim bowed as if seeking for forgiveness, his figure becoming poignant.Even though it wasn't his fault, it was his mistake not to take notice of this matter, and even though there were reasonable excuses on his part, he didn't feel like narrating them as that would try to sound as if he were intentionally making excuses.In front of the ancestor whom he and all of the family members respected and worshipped, he didn't want to seem narrow-minded to a fault."Rise young one..." Ancestor Dian Alstreim spoke, "I have recently heard about your contributions to the family. You're only a recently appointed Head Envoy to the Ethren Empire, and yet, you secured the favor of an external expert and was responsible for relaying the Flowing Mist Sect's devious schemes to us.""You have produced extraordinary results, which in turn, preemptively allowed us to capture the Yantra Family's members and have them be released for a reasonable price that gained us an enormous profit.""This result alone makes you stand above the hundreds of envoys we possess!"Havle Alstreim's expression froze as he listened to his ancestor's voice. Each word of his ancestor carried enormous weight in his heart. He never thought that his ancestor would speak this much about him and hold him in high regard. Follow current on novelenglish.net

He almost let out a tear for being praised for his efforts in the past few years. Being assigned to the Ethren Empire as the Head Envoy was really his fortune, but his actions and stance towards the Conferred Queen remarkably placed him in the limelight!"But Ancestor, I failed to-""Let me hear this recent news before you blame yourself, child..." Ancestor Dian Alstreim turned to look at Grand Elder Valdrey Alstreim.A stone abruptly appeared in Grand Elder Valdrey Alstreim's hand."This contains the projection of the event that happened..." He started to explain."We bought it from a person who recorded the event, but in any case, it's only an Imagery Stone. It only possesses the image and no sound, but even then, once we saw this monstrosity, we checked the Grand Library but found no records of it.""By then, it was already too late to make a move...""Left with no choice and recognizing that this could perhaps be a grand matter, we came to seek Ancestor's knowledge."The Imagery Stone flew towards the ancestor before the latter reached out his hand and invoked the projection in mid-air as the stone glowed.A projection appeared, displaying tall mountains; however, there were countless vines stretching into the air and congregated in a single area trying to squash some dots in the sky. Flames converged and covered a part of the skies, scorching all those vines.The projection played on for some time before the kilometer-long main body of the plant lifeform appeared above the ruined mountains as it ascended. It seemed to wreak havoc continuously on the mountains with its vines before a small dot appeared in front of its main body for some time.The projection seemed to be taken from a long distance away, and below them was a wrecked town that Havle Alstreim recognized it to be the Border Town. Even the defensive formation that was placed before the Sunset Tear Mountain had been ripped apart.The three viewed the formation as everything came to a stop while only the vines flailed at itself, trying to hit the small dot, but the small dot was in the distance remained unrecognizable to them as it remained extremely small.

In a few seconds, the plant lifeform's entire body abruptly disappeared, leaving behind only the small dot floating in the skies!The projection ended after some time, observing that nothing happened after this episode.Ancestor Dian Alstreim possessed a solemn expression on his face.Initially, he couldn't recognize what these countless vines stretching throughout the skies were, but the moment he saw its main body, he vaguely recalled a terrifying calamity that once erupted in a medium-sized Territory!"Million Emerald Vines Calamity..."Grand Elder's eyes narrowed as he heard the dangerous term, "Ancestor recognizes this lifeform?"Ancestor Dian Alstreim had his expression scrunched up in hesitation before he shook his head, "I'm not sure...""Then..." Grand Elder Valdrey Alstreim was about to ask further but was interrupted."Back then, when I was traveling around the medium-sized Territories as an Eighth Stage Expert, I heard about the Million Emerald Vines Calamity from those who were curiously talking about the types of calamities that have said to wreaked havoc in the Fifty-Two Territories.""A person mentioned about the Million Emerald Vines Calamity and even displayed a projection for all of us to see as a form of bragging, telling us all that he was an avid collector of the calamities that beset the Fifty-Two Territories.""That person mentioned how this Million Emerald Vines Calamity massacred more than a billion cultivators and magical beast alike and consumed them for its own growth while it was at the High-Level Ninth Stage.""However, different from the hundred and thousands of vines and a kilometer long main body, the Million Emerald Vines Calamity in that projection has a million vines, and its main body is said to be eight kilometers tall.""And different from the emerald vines that possessed wind attribute, it seems to have possessed deep blue colored vines that probably emitted an icy attribute."

"So, is it not the same?" Grand Elder Valdrey Alstreim couldn't help but ask, "From the statements we acquired, it is said that this plant lifeform was only at Mid-Level Eighth Stage, a stage directly lower than the Million Emerald Vines Calamity that Ancestor spoke of..."Ancestor Dian Alstreim solemnly nodded his head."In the projection that you brought, that plant lifeform possesses the same type of main body that I saw in the Million Emerald Vines Calamity's projection, not to mention the same type of flower on its head except its size...""Ancestor, do you mean?""Yes, it could be possible in its growing stages but was taken care of by that expert who seems to be skilled in Darkness Laws..."Both Grand Elder Valdrey Alstreim and Havle Alstreim sucked in a deep amount of cold breath.Doesn't this mean that they have just avoided a calamity in the future?Ancestor Dian Alstreim narrowed his eyes, "Is that expert the Conferred Queen's Protector?""Yes!" Before Grand Elder Valdrey Alstreim could reply, Havle Alstreim excitedly echoed."Seems like we really did lose the opportunity to reap enormous benefits in our own Territory..." Ancestor Dian Alstreim wryly chuckled.His chuckle contained ounces of mocking himself."Enormous benefits?" Havle Alstreim possessed a confused expression on his face before it cleared, "Oh, the valuable carcass of the plant lifeform?"Ancestor Dian Alstreim chuckled deprecatingly, "Its carcass is indeed valuable, but there is something more valuable than it in its flower...""... The nectar."
