Divine Emperor of Death Chapter 2148: Not Here

"What the fuck!?"Mingzhi blatantly screamed, her luscious mouth turning agape as she saw the monstrosities that looked like magical beasts descend. Her piercing voice startled the others from their reverie, feeling that their blood had turned cold.Even though they could feel no undulations, they could intrinsically feel the visual impact of kilometer-long beasts flying in the skies. Even an Emperor Beast Stage Magical Beast wouldn't reach more than five hundred meters at best, but these beasts all looked more than a kilometer long and wide, some even at the tens of kilometers, making their hearts shudder in fear.They had never seen such massive entities, making them believe what they were facing were Immortal Magical Beasts! It quickly made them feel dread as they turned to look at Davis, who they saw wearing a frown on his face.They were momentarily startled to see that there was no fear in his eyes, but instead, a contemplative expression appeared on his face. Moreover, since he looked unperturbed, their hearts also began to calm down."What's wrong, Davis?"Evelynn couldn't help but ask.If they were going to battle, then she felt that they should take to the skies to lessen the impact on the Grand Alstreim City.Or was it time to escape?"Their silhouettes look so big, yet I can't sense anything? Hhm…"Davis voiced out his doubt, causing the others to become dumbfounded. Was the distance to the outside space that large? Perhaps, these beasts were hundreds and thousands of kilometers away in the skies, and that's why they couldn't sense its undulations, but in that case, wouldn't their size be absolutely massive, spanning like the shining stars?"Oh, no! Three of them are coming in our direction!"Natalya couldn't help but point out as she saw those beasts slither in the air towards them."…!"The others couldn't help but float as they began to release their undulations.Among them, Evelynn's sinister energy flowed overwhelmingly, causing the others to feel enormous pressure. Other than her, Natalya, Shirley, Nadia, Yotan, and Threelotus also released their overflowing energy, intending to let the descending beasts know that they wouldn't die without struggling at the very least."Those who aren't at the Ninth Stage, retreat inside the Mortal Hex Emperor Purple Palace.""But, big sister-" Follow current on novelenglish.net

"No buts."Evelynn instantly retorted Fiora, causing the latter to clench her teeth as she lamented her weakness. Mingzhi placed a hand on Fiora's shoulder and shook her head, causing Fiora to release a sigh and understand that she would be a burden if she stayed outside.The people below the Eighth Stage had just turned around when a nonchalant voice echoed."Wait…"Everyone couldn't help but turn around and see Davis as he was the one who told them to wait. They couldn't help but blink while Evelynn was unable to say anything, wondering if he had noticed something. After all, she knew that he wouldn't let the others stay in this place if it was dangerous.However, Davis didn't provide any explanation, nor did he say for them to completely retreat into the Grand Sea Continent, causing them to be confused.What was going on?They couldn't help but raise their heads and look again, having their eyes wide enough like saucers to find if they had missed anything, but no, all they could see was one beast after another exiting the Calamity Light, heading in different directions as they blotted the skies like big amoebas staining the eye.At a glance, they could see more than a hundred of those massive entities spreading their wings and taking flight in different directions, but to add to the visual shock, there were millions of tiny dots and small shapes lurking around them, possibly magical beasts at the mortal realm.Even the three immortal beasts that were heading towards them exuded a menacing gaze on the world.But suddenly, Evelynn couldn't help but narrow her eyes as she noticed something strange about the three immortal beasts.It seemed like those three immortal beasts were getting closer as they flew in the air towards them but on closer look, no matter how many seconds passed, it didn't seem like they were nearing them."…"A minute later, those beasts actually rushed passed their heads, heading towards the horizons."Oh no…" Tanya couldn't help but react, "They're going to the other Territories.""Wha-? That's not right." Evelynn shook her head in response, appearing confused, "The direction they're going is to the west, and the west of us is practically nothing.""True." Lea nodded her head, "To the south of us is the Tripartite Alliance Territory. The Blood Pledge Villa Territory and the Thousand Pill Palace Territory are towards the north and east. There's literally nothing in the west except a few other Alstreim Family cities. However, I don't see these three beasts descending, so they'll be blocked by the dark fog and forced to return here."Everyone couldn't help but become solemn as they heard Lea's conclusion. For a moment, they thought they had escaped death as those menacing beasts flew past them, but now, there's apparently a huge chance that they might return."Just what are these immortal beasts planning?"

Looking at the other immortal beasts disappearing into the horizons, Mingzhi couldn't help but utter, her head churning with many thoughts."If I'm not wrong, they're not here."Suddenly, a calm voice startled them all again as they turned to look at Davis."…"What did he mean by they were not here? No matter how they saw it, those ridiculously huge beasts were floating in the skies, so how could they not be here unless they were an…"Don't tell me it's an illusion?"Mingzhi couldn't help but frown.If it was the case, who was so powerful enough to cast an illusion on the trillions of lives in the Fifty-Two Territories?'This is not Infinite Tsukuyomi, for heaven's sake...'Mingzhi almost blurted out, but she saw Davis shrug."Maybe. I'm sure everyone is worried about the powers you lived in. Feel free to check with your powers if those immortal magical beasts have descended."Lea couldn't help but instantly take out a messaging talisman to contact her Burning Phoenix Ridge. Tanya did the same as her Falling Snow Sect had moved most of its operations to the Falling Snow Sect Territory while having a branch here. Similarly, Bylai, Yotan, and Dalila contacted their respective powers, but Zestria didn't seem to bother."They haven't?""Is that so…""I see…"The recipients of the messaging talismans quickly responded, and the beauties couldn't help but possess bewildered expressions on their faces."How did it go?"Davis raised one of his brows and asked, causing Lea to raise her head and nod."It seemed none of those immortal beasts descended on my Burning Phoenix Ridge Territory."

"Same here in my Falling Snow Sect Territory.""The Zlatan Family also reported that there was no invasion. However, I told them not to lower their defenses for the time being."Tanya and Bylai also spoke with seriousness, causing Davis to turn to look at Dalila and Yotan."T-the Thousand Pill Palace have also seemed to witness three immortal beasts coming towards them, but just like it happened to us, they got past them.""The Soul Palace also didn't seem to have incurred any kind of aggression from those immortal beasts or those little magical beasts blotting the skies. It's just as Legion Master said. It's as though they are not… here."Dalila spoke in a soft voice while Yotan reported with a frown, ending with a hint of disbelief in her voice, wondering how Davis arrived at this conclusion. Was his senses that powerful.'As expected of Legion Master...' She couldn't help but think before another melodious voice echoed out."Husband, what exactly had happened?"Evelynn asked, but Davis lowered his head, seemingly in contemplation. A few seconds later, he raised his head, looking at the icy-blue robed woman in the distance. Her figure flashed twice before she was already in front of them, causing Davis to wryly smile."You're still here? I thought you would've escaped through ascension long ago."Myria took a look at the bevy of beauties behind him as she listened to him talk. However, she didn't seem to be in the mood to exchange jabs as her expression remained solemn, her gaze even complex."Most likely, you were right..."Davis blinked, not exactly knowing what she was pointing at, but if she said that he was right, then he felt that it should be about the matter when he said that ascending might prove to be dangerous and staying here is safer than ascending. He didn't delay and told her his findings at the edges of the Fifty-Two Territories, but Myria nodded her head as though she knew it beforehand.Indeed, she had done the same thing Davis did like two months ago.And after she saw what happened above, she practically confirmed it.As for Evelynn and the others, they started to realize what was going on ever so lightly, unable to see the big picture."Back then," Myria moved her lips, her voice sounding transient, "When I descended to this world to seek shelter millions of years ago, I vaguely remember that it was a world vaster than this small world called the Fifty-Two Territories. However, before I could be tracked, I remember being forced into a spatial tunnel, so the place I most likely arrived at was here, and if I was graciously sent here to avoid being tracked, then it could only mean one thing.""Therefore, I think the ascension here is nothing but a mere facade. What is really happening when we ascend is that we're getting out of this massive protective formation that is the Fifty-Two Territories.""..."Natalya and the others looked mortified. The Fifty-Two Territories was a protective formation? What was Myria going on about?On the other hand, Davis held his forehead and rubbed, releasing an exasperated sigh as he recalled Evelynn hearing about it from that Three-Eyed Chromatic Hex Arachnid called Misteltae and also their Empress."The First Haven World… was it…?"
