Divine Emperor of Death Chapter 1218 Inviting

Chapter 1218 Inviting

"I am not sure... but as far as I can tell, it is something of a fusion between the wood-attribute and lightning-attribute," Zanna explained as her viridian eyes gazed at the emaciated tree.
Davis wasn't surprised or disappointed by her answer. Instead, it was obvious that it possessed the wood-attribute and the lightning-attribute, but what of the fusion between it?
Would fusion between those two laws give birth to life-like laws?
Was it truly life-like laws as he expected, but then if it was, why did it cause Alia to die an excruciating death instead of letting her die peacefully and painlessly as he would expect from Life Laws. Was it because of the lightning-attribute, or the two attributes hadn't perfectly fused to give birth to life-like laws Fallen Heaven possessed?
Fallen Heaven's Life-like Laws were completely pure that Davis felt that it had no aggressive or offensive properties. He felt that it was purely of the healing type. Even the light-attribute can heal, but it had both healing and offensive properties. So what about the life-like laws he had pondered about?
Was it purely something of healing type, having no offensive properties?
If that was the case, then it was not something made up of life-like laws, but then, why did he sense familiarity from the viridian fruit that was similar to his life-like laws?
He couldn't understand.
'Heavenly laws... Exactly how many laws and differentiation are there? Perhaps, anything or any kind of power is possible in this world...' Davis could only let his imagination run wild.
The only speculation he could arrive was that it might be similar but was of a different property like how his own lightning possessed the property of extinction while other lightning existed, even the healing-types...
Davis turned his gaze towards the Lightning Sea, "Those luminescent viridian lightning strands that are mixed within the blue-colored Lightning Sea. Are they of the healing type?"
"Yes, it seems like they can heal, but in our time here, I have already checked them. Rather than healing, these viridian lightning bolts would harm you first and then heal, doing nothing in the end. No, those little strands of luminescent viridian lightning have little healing energy that they heal you less. They are useless at best." Mival chuckled.
"Useless?" Davis gawked, "This is almost a natural resource that can infinitely temper your soul to its level if refined in a large quantity."
"Ha! Why would I have a need for it when my soul is already at the Eighth Stage while it is the same for Zanna? Only Alia can profit from it, but her soul is incapable of withstanding its destructive prowess first before she could be healed. We cannot refine it to help her absorb it. We tried, but the bit of healing energy inside it just disappears after we refine it for her."
"Moreover, if you do something like provoking the viridian lightning, let me tell you that the blue-colored lightning bolts will be attracted along with it and attack you. I almost got killed by it when I was none the wiser."
Davis's eyes went wide before he smiled, "Thanks for the warning."
Mival nodded, "In any case, stepping into that Lightning Sea to capture these strands of viridian lightning is near suicide. Even for the present us who have reached the ninth stage, it is perilous as if even one of them is provoked by a foreign presence, the other thousands of blue-colored lightning bolts will naturally follow to attack the foreign presence."
"Oh... But don't you two have viridian lightning yourself?"
Davis felt that they might be able to somehow attract the Lightning Sea's luminescent viridian lightning from the Lightning Sea.
"Inexperienced brat!" Mival couldn't help but laugh in content, "The Viridian Lightning Fox's dark viridian lightning is corrosive that it corrupts all kinds of energy on top of having the above-average lightning's destructive power. It's not one of the healing types and is especially effective against yang-attributed lightning because it is of the yin-attribute!"
"I see..." Davis's sapphire eyes imperceptibly flashed in understanding as he felt that it could be similar to Nora Alstreim's Purple Yin Star Flame.
'So a single law can have many different capabilities, and the same could apply to life-like laws...' Davis mused, 'But how can I attract them...? These eighth stage luminescent viridian lightning bolts might help me temper my soul, but it is too dangerous as my soul's cultivation base is low. Isn't there low-level viridian lightning bolts appropriate to my level or even a little higher somewhere...?'
Davis looked around and saw that every lightning bolt here was above the seventh stage without a single exception. They were all in the eighth stage, making him a bit frustrated. Of course, he could try his chances or could run around to check for them but losing his way in this distorted space might prove to be fatal for him.
'For now, let's just concentrate on this poor Lightning Elemental that had been locked up for so long...'
Davis felt like he could use this chance to his advantage. However, considering that it should've listened to their conversation, the advantage he possessed had dropped quite a lot. He couldn't act like a hero to save the damsel in distress anymore, which made it difficult for him to convince the Lightning Elemental.
'Mhm... How am I going to convince it...?' Davis wracked his brains for a solution.
While Mival and Zanna were watching Alia in the process of breaking through to the Martial Sage Stage, Davis climbed upon Nadia as he nudged her to take him to the Lightning Elemental above the skies. Mival and Zanna glanced at him when suddenly a voice echoed.
"Wait!"
Davis turned to look at Mival, "What? Are you backing out of the deal?"
Mival shook his head, "If you take the Lightning Elemental away, how are we supposed to leave this place? I suggest you wait for some time while Alia breaks through before we all leave this place together, and then you can take it."
"Don't worry." Davis smiled in an eerie manner, "I won't do something like leaving you all here since I plan to invite all three of you to the Alstreim Family if things go smooth between us."
Mival's eyes narrowed. He felt like he could understand the other party's intent but wasn't sure of it, "Are you actually trying to recruit us as subordinates for the Dragon Queen?"
"Not quite right..." Davis chuckled, but he didn't say anything anymore about it but instead spoke about them, "Now I already know that you three are lacking an abode despite being ninth stage experts. Is it because feys are not allowed to live?"
Mival's expression became a bit sullen, but he nodded his head, "Feys only have two paths left for them in front of the so-called righteous path. Either die or become a slave or a similar existence. As for the magical beasts, they hate us more than the humans because of something called bloodline superiority. The only other way for feys to live while having a bit of freedom is to willingly serve a human or a magical beast power."
"There might be some powers that can be magnanimous enough to take us in, but later it turns out to be a trap, the same with similar peak fey powers. They are all untrustworthy as they only care about their own skin, but I'm the same. I only care about my two precious wives."
"It seems like the nectar you have provided is the genuine one..." Mival smiled as he relaxed.
Alia was already in the process of engraving the laws she had comprehended into her fleshly body. This was absolutely good news as he became assured that nothing would go wrong this time. At the same time, his impression of Davis improved, making him more talkative.
'Well, the sincerity was ultimately for me to bring you and your people to the Alstreim Family. Right now, the only thing I lack is the strength to protect myself and my people, and our goals kinda align if you're looking for a place to stay, so I guess there's a bit of a chance that you might accept my invitation to be a guardian-like existence at the Alstreim Family.'
Davis inwardly mused, wondering if they would accept his idea but nevertheless, "First, let's see if the Lightning Elemental is willing to become mine."
"You want to tame it?" Mival instantly looked amused as he laughed, "Ahaha, go ahead and try. I won't say anything if it chooses to follow you!"
He felt that there was no way this Lightning Elemental was going to bend its head to this brat. He had tried a bit for thousands of years, but it didn't seem to want to cooperate with him, so what can he do other than keep it locked up in a safe container that would seal its strength?
Davis smiled as he shook his head. He knew that he was not being looked down upon, but Mival merely presumed the natural course of events. Indeed, even he was a bit skeptical if he could manage to make the Mid-Level Emperor Grade Lightning Elemental his, and even if it accepted to become his, he wouldn't know if it is to attack him from the inside because of its intelligence.
Sophie's and Starcy's cultivation base was near each other compared with him and the Mid-Level Emperor Grade Lightning Elemental's cultivation base, where there was a difference of one to two stages because of Davis's prowess. Still, if it entered his body, there's no telling what might happen if it decided to suddenly go berserk.
That was why he decided to...
"I apologize as I lied before, saying that I can help you attain freedom." Davis and Nadia stood in front of the extinction lightning Lightning Elemental as he opened his mouth. His words instantly caused the black lightning to tremble before it went silent.
Davis creased his brows, not knowing what its reaction meant. He told Nadia to go forward a bit, and in reaction to that, the Lightning Elemental actually trembled again before flashing with black lightning.
"Kid, watch out!" Mival warned as he narrowed his eyes, "A single hit from that is enough to turn you into ashes!"
Zanna raised her hands as she clenched when suddenly a viridian glow flashed inside the Lightning Elemental's body, causing its surge of black lightning to fade away as a grunt echoed.
"Stop... It pains..."
A female voice echoed in distress, causing Zanna to withdraw her hands.
"Then behave-"
Davis raised his hand towards them, causing Zanna to be interrupted. She narrowed her eyes, wondering why this person was rude towards her when she saved him when she suddenly saw something inconceivable again.
The Lightning Elemental was actually retreating while Davis advanced!
