Divine Emperor of Death Chapter 227

Chapter 227
"What about me? Am I a genius too? You said so yourself just a while ago . . . " Davis raised his brows .
"Hmm, I have checked you enough . Since you can fight across levels using your Soul Forging Cultivation, you are definitely a genius and there's no doubt about it . "
"Hehe, I think my soul is about 5 times stronger . . . " Davis smirked as he rubbed his nose, quite proud .
Garvin turned smug, "I inspected and found out that you have no special physique except other than your soul being stronger . "
"It doesn't matter . . . " Davis shrugged but was confused . Didn't he possess the Tyrant Physique?
"Heh, sooner or later, you would lose your advantage of being able to fight across levels and reduced to be merely a common cultivator . "
"What!? Why?" Davis was shocked! His face expressed worry .
Old Man Garvin shook his head, "As I said before, you'll lose your advantage as you advance through stages . "
"Once you get to the Fifth Stage, it is not easy anymore to fight across stages . You must've realized this at some point . "
"It's because the rift and the power gap increases by a large margin at every stage, even in the levels of the latter stages . "
Davis's expression turned aghast but his eyes told that he had already expected this to be the outcome .
Davis calmed down and thought to the time he tried to fight a Fifth Stage Soul Forging Cultivator, Elder Severin .
But since he was caught by his neck at that time, he assumed that he lost with Essence Gathering Cultivation and not Soul Forging Cultivation .
Now, it seemed like that wasn't the case .
Old Man Garvin shook his head, "Theoretically, once you get to the Fifth Stage, you will need 5 times the strength to fight across a person of one level above you, meaning that, if you are at the Low-Level Elder Soul Stage, you can fight people who are at the Mid-Level Elder Soul Stage . "
No wonder . . . It seemed like his Soul was likely three times stronger now, only capable of dealing with Low-Level Elder Stage Cultivators .
He understood that his previous assumption of being able to fight High-Level Elder Soul Stage Cultivators should be entirely wrong .
Davis nodded and voiced out his opinion, "So the only way I can increase my battle prowess is that if I somehow manage to increase the quality of my soul force and essence by a few times, right?
"Yes, and seeing that you have no special physique and no capable pills, you can forget about that for the time being . "
"Eh . . . Are you kidding me!? I have the Tyrant Body Physique! How can you say that I have no physique!?" Davis snapped thinking that this old fart must have a screw loose in his head .
"Heh! Tyrant Body Physique? Don't make me laugh, there is no such a thing as that . . . " Garvin laughed heartily .
"Hmph! I'm not lying! You can go ahead and check my body . . . "
"Kid, was your Tyrant Body innate from birth? Who said to you that it was the Tyrant Body Physique? I haven't even heard of such a physique . . . "
Davis shook his head, "No, I didn't have that when I was born . I managed to cultivate it when I ate the Tyrant Fruit, and it was written on the cultivation manual that one would gain a Tyrant Body Physique when done so . . . "
"Then the answer is simple, your cultivation method simply included body-type laws in it . To even complement that, the author of that cultivation manual must have thought of a method, and that must've been the Tyrant Fruit . It probably helped your body become compatible with the laws which were in the Tyrant Fruit, increasing your prowess in the process . "
Old Man Garvin sneered, "You don't believe me? Try activating your battle aura . . . "
Davis activated his battle aura and silver gaseous aura came out, enveloping him .
"See . . . " Garvin shrugged, "Your battle aura is tinged with a faint amount of elementary Earth Laws . . . "
When pointed out by Garvin, Davis also realized it as he concentrated . There was really a thread of elementary Earth Laws floating in his battle aura .
What can he say? He shut his mouth thinking that he was truly frog in a well .
'How come I didn't notice it before?' Davis thought for a moment before another thought popped upon his mind, "That's right! My revolving core has mutated! You think that can make me possibly evolve it into a physique!?"
"Hmm . . . I noticed it but it is hard to say . The people who have cultivated their physiques are all physiques innately granted through their birth . "
"Those who have cultivated physiques artificially are people who are either myths and legends . . . Not much is known about them as they have all chosen to not spread their secrets . "
Davis turned sad, maybe his cultivation might turn out to be weak when compared to these people who possess a physique .
'Then I wonder if Clara has a physique?' He contemplated but ultimately wouldn't know if it was a physique in the first place .
He could only go to the Alstreim Family Territory to check about Clara's Physique .
Even so, Davis still didn't believe in Old Man Garvin's words . It could just be a misguidance or misunderstanding on his part .
"Here, take look at this . . . " Davis handed over the Tyrant Body Secrets, Body Tempering Cultivation Manual to Old Man Garvin . He possessed a copy of it since he needed to be sure about cultivating to the Gold Stage, after all, it required tempering bone marrow including other parts of the body .
Old Man Garvin sighed and read the cultivation manual with a scrutinizing gaze .
As he read, he muttered from time to time, nodding to the author's viewpoint in the method but then suddenly, his gaze turned solemn and even his face slowly followed suit .
It was quite a while before Old Man Garvin took his eyes off the manual, he turned to Davis as he asked, "Who wrote this?"
