Davis shot a look at them, his eyes flashing deep red while his Death God Eyes instantly saw through their names, but even before he saw their names, Fallen Heaven's infallible soul imprint extermination landed on their souls, killing them in an instant.*Thump!~*The sound of many hearts pounding could be heard from the living cultivators as they saw the formation collapse while all the Peak-Level Law Sea Stage Experts plunged towards the ground, falling as if they were kites that had their strings cut.Davis imperceptibly smiled, aware that he didn't need names as long as he could see or perceive their existence with his perception."Impossible! That's the Emperor Flame Soul Defense Formation that's capable of defending against soul attacks to a remarkable level! How was he able to kill them while they were using it!!!?"Grand Elder Artur Schatz screamed while everyone had their eyes wide in sheer disbelief as they saw that twelve Elders of their Burning Phoenix Ridge were killed in an instant!*Bzzzz!~*At this moment, a majestic crimson-robed figure appeared in the skies, their expression looking twisted as they looked at the place where not even a single speck of dust remained other than three spatial rings, a protective talisman, and a crimson robe of Grand Elder Ulrich Hector.He was none other than Grand Elder Valerian. The greyish black energy retreated, making him see that not even a strand of his son's ash could be found. Not even Grand Elder Ulrich Hector's body survived this strange and ominous energy, so it was painfully obvious that he was not even going to see a speck of ash from his son's remains.Not even the High-Level Emperor Grade Protective Talisman he had on his son reacted, lying lifeless along with the other objects that couldn't be destroyed."..."The atmosphere in the dawn red skies of the Burning Phoenix Ridge was abnormally calm like it was the calm before the storm. The death count at this moment remained sixteen, unknown if it would grow if someone were to ever make a hostile move.Davis cast a look at the twisted expression of Grand Elder Valerian, who seemed to be immersed in the sorrow and rage of losing his son. His expression was constantly twisting like Davis had never seen before, making him aware that he really cared about his son instead of just treating him like a pawn or a way to continue life.

"Unfortunately, you all should've never had your eyes on Shirley. No matter what kind of schemes you may have been plotting and are going to plot, it is all but meaningless in front of my power. I will kill every single one of you until you stop bothering Shirley as she doesn't want any kind of disturbances in her cultivation path at the moment.""Is that so difficult to understand, or are you all pretending that you didn't hear her before proceeding to force her while you can because she is still weak?"At this moment, everyone instantly realized that it wasn't an invasion or the actions of an assassin but the aggressive action of a protector who overly cared about the woman he was protecting.A maniacal protector!"Chu Feng? I've never heard of your name before, nor does it seem like it resounded in the current Fifty-Two Territories, but your power is indeed rather terrifying. Death Laws, was it? If the killing method isn't visible, it should be similar to some techniques used in Karmic Laws, Mandate Laws, and Hex Laws alike.""Nevertheless, no matter how strong your laws and techniques may be, your mere King Soul Stage Cultivation will not penetrate through my Mid-Level Law Rune Stage defense. You had merely caught Grand Elder Ulrich Hector off-guard. Nothing more, nothing less..."Grand Elder Valerian Rein's voice resounded like thunder, instantly boosting the morale of his side immensely. His voice seemed calm, as if he didn't care about the death of his son, but they could all tell that he was hiding it from the way he acted before."If you want to battle with me to the death, then you have to use your Essence Gathering Cultivation and Body Tempering Cultivation. Or, is it that you don't have both and crippled alike? After all, not one of us can seem to garner your Essence Gathering Cultivation as well as Body Tempering Cultivation, including the grand me."Davis smiled as his eyes widened, "How perceptive of you, Valerian. The cost of the Soul Forging Art I'm using is to indeed abandon my essence and body. In turn, my soul becomes extremely powerful while it has the special property of... concealment!""What!!!?"Davis instantly disappeared from the place he stood, causing everyone to panic!Everyone retreated as far as they can to a safe distance before they saw Davis reach the same heights as Grand Elder Valerian, whose killing intent was blazing at this moment with burning phoenix flames releasing scorching heat from his sleeves as his palms were set ablaze."Concealment? No wonder you could kill without being perceived, but what kind of heretic art is that? I've never heard of its name before...""I think you know enough for a dead person..."

Davis indifferently replied while Grand Elder's cold expression chalked out a freezing chuckle."Hehe, your confidence in that crappy crippled art would be the cause of your downfall.""Crappy art?" Davis's expression became one of mocking, "Careful... I can discern greed taking over the pupils of your crimson eyes, so stay wide-eyed, lest I'm afraid that you won't even catch a glimpse of the end of your life.""Insolent little fool! Your measly usage of this overbearing law does not scare my great Burning Phoenix Flames!!! Take this...!"Grand Elder Valerian's entire being sprang into crimson flames that turned into a mini-sun! The light and heat his Mid-Level Law Rune Stage emitted caused even the Mid-Level Law Rune Stage Powerhouses to know the difference between their own strengths, that Grand Elder Valerian was undoubtedly the one with the most prowess among them!He was like a Law Dominion Stage Cultivator who had learned a third-level Impeccable Domain, looking down on ants who had just possessed a second-level Mediocre Domain. His prowess overwhelmed theirs as a rune with shot our from the center of the mini-sun!"Grand Elder Valerian is going in for the kill!""Marvelous! Grand Elder Valerian must be burning with immense rage right now to unleash his Six Sun Burning Phoenix Rune!"Two Elders of the Rein Family clenched their fists in happiness as they saw the rune fly out. Not only was its corporeal body filled with countless tiny lines and marks, but it also seemed to have six rune wings carrying it in the wind, immensely propelling its speed. It had never once failed to hit the target and cause massive damage to their body and soul! It had once killed at Mid-Level Law Rune Stage Powerhouse from the wicked path!!!However, their expressions suddenly faded.The rune disappeared mid-air, seemingly being cooled down by the atmosphere before it dissipated, leaving behind a scorched air that burned enough to tear a few punctures in space.Meanwhile, Davis had his hand stretched out, seemingly looking like a death god who erased the Law Rune. Deathly greyish energy revolved around him while everyone noticed that his hands were clenched, drenched in blood while blood also seeming to be coming out of his seven orifices."Blood-Soul Sacrifice Art: Death God's Descent~"The cultivators of the Burning Phoenix Ridge then saw a figure plunge towards the ground as Davis's voice echoed out, striking fear into their hearts.

"..."That familiar crimson-robed Grand Elder... Wasn't he Grand Elder Valerian?Everyone's mind reeled sharply as their hearts churned with dread! They all took a step back in fear and disbelief, their hearts beating in doubt as they truly didn't know if Grand Elder Valerian met the same fate as his son!However, they recalled something.A Law Rune is something that requires the consciousness of the cultivator who unleashed it. Otherwise, it fails to contain itself and fades away, sometimes even exploding if its energy contained within had already been unleashed. It was the same for some techniques in the lower stages as well. If the energy isn't able to sustain itself from the laws of heaven and earth's attraction, then it would collapse. This phenomenon of retraction or dissipation was something natural that almost every cultivator knew, but of course, there were always outliers in any concepts.However, was Grand Elder Valerian an outlier?No!*Crack!~*The sound of bones breaking echoed throughout the area as Grand Elder Valerian hit the High-Level Emperor-Grade Tiled Floor with his face first, his teeth and nose smashed into the surface while blood splashed all over the crimson-white tiles.The Elders all had their mouths agape, and even the Grand Elders witnessing the scenes weren't any different. At this moment, they were all acutely aware that Grand Elder Valerian Rein was undoubtedly dead as they looked at his unmoving yet bloodied body.Davis took deep breaths as his c.h.e.s.t heaved, taking time to act as if he had sacrificed both his blood and soul essence from the technique's name he had yelled out.Naturally, he had made sure to let Grand Elder Valerian unleash a technique before he killed him so that it didn't seem too overpowered while the others might realize the weakness and try to kill him before he could react, but he didn't expect it to be an ultimate move like unleashing the rune.He almost deluded himself into thinking that he was practically gone at that moment just from the sheer pressure of the six-winged rune that targeted him, but as expected, Fallen Heaven's prowess could reach till here in the blink of an eye to the extent that sensed no delays.Nevertheless, the moment he bestowed death upon Grand Elder Valerian, the latter ended up dead without a doubt before his rune could even enter his range!
