Divine Emperor of Death Chapter 2289 Back To The Rifts

Chapter 2289 Back To The Rifts
"Are you fine, husband?"
Evelynn turned to ask Davis, causing him to come out of his reverie before he lightly smiled.
"The Grand Beginnings Continent will have an influx of hundreds of millions of young masters and mistresses. I'm rather disappointed that I couldn't see their humbled expressions as we'll shortly ascend."
Evelynn couldn't help but smile, "You're fine, alright."
They made their way to the rifts in the Poison Rift Valley Territory.
But before they arrived, Davis and Evelynn could see many human, magical beast, and spirit powers taking up space in this region, building anew or expanding their powers as they created branches. The expansion of powers was already underway, and a unified world was gradually taking shape.
Everywhere, the wild and uncivilized magical beasts were also entering the magical beast powers, coming to know that the world wasn't just for swiping their claws at while the dormant or hiding Spirit Attribute Sources met their spirit ancestors, no longer trying to just survive from being hunted down but coming to live under their protection and grow into fine spirits themselves.
The magical beasts and spirits released wrongfully indicted human slaves. The humans and magical beasts released captured Spirit Attribute Sources that didn't have a history of willfully slaughtering people and spirits, and humans released tamed magical beasts as long as they were unwilling, although many individuals did refuse to cooperate, saying that it was their property.
As more problems were constantly detected, they were quickly being addressed, although it was apparent that resolving them would take more time.
After entering the unstable region of the rifts, fortunately, they managed to find that the rift they once entered was still present. Otherwise, they may have had to use another rift to find their way inside.
They traced back their path, but Davis raised his brows to see a Vacuous Beast's severed body lying here. Evelynn was also astounded, instantly raising her guard but then noticing that only half the body was present while the head was missing.
Just as they wondered who could've killed it, they saw that its severed part was at the edge of the spatial instability, meaning that it most likely got its head cut off by entering the spatial void.
To this, they could only wryly shake their heads and continue on.
They shortly passed by the location where Davis was reminded of Valley Master Jade Aurora. He thought back to her actions in the Alternating Time Flow Valley and couldn't help but inwardly sigh. Evelynn also noticed him looking at the place where Valley Master Jade Aurora almost died, her blood still staining that spot.
"Ivy Aries and Valley Master Jade Aurora went along with their immortal. Do you think they survived?"
"I'm not sure, but I hope they are safe."
"I wish them the same." Evelynn recalled the interactions they had with each other.
Although Ivy Aries was childishly prideful, she meant no harm to anyone, and as for Valley Master Jade Aurora, she had heard that Valley Master Jade Aurora and Davis had coincidentally met up in the Alternating Time Flow Valley from him during one of their talks as he didn't hide anything from her, saying that he had a good impression of her, which made her wonder if Davis took a liking to Valley Master Jade Aurora, but it didn't seem like the case as he didn't seem much worried.
Nonetheless, they didn't pause the journey but crossed through a few more rifts before finally arriving in front of the arachnid-like structure, feeling a dense amount of heaven and earth energy cover this spatial pocket.
"The immortal energy has penetrated this far..."
"Well, a dead Vacuous Beast is lying a few rifts away, so we could arrive at the conclusion that a dozen or so Vacuous Beasts entered these rifts and got beheaded while crossing the spatial void due to their mindless nature and spatial instability."
Evelynn nodded to Davis's answer. She took a deep breath before taking a step forward to the barrier, but Davis captured her wrist, causing her to pause and turn her head to look at him.
"I'm coming with you."
Evelynn shook her head, "The barrier requires you to deposit your main spatial ring."
"You really want me to court you again?"
Davis sighed while Evelynn inclined her head in question.
"You know I'm going to say something cheeky like what's this spatial ring worth in front of you? Come, let's go together..."
Davis walked forwards as he dragged Evelynn, causing her to become momentarily dumbfounded before she held her ground, capturing his hand as he shook her head.
"Wait…!"
Davis stopped as he heaved a breath. This is why he hadn't said it earlier and thought he could follow her inside. However, the wife-pleaser in him still wanted to let her know he would have her back.
"Let me destroy the barrier. We'll go in together."
"…"
Davis turned to look at Evelynn in shock. His fiery gaze rather made her blush while he deeply smiled before letting go of her hands.
"That's more like it."
With a chuckle, he approached the barrier as he flew, causing Evelynn to smilingly shake her head, knowing that he took the risk so that she could still get the inheritance if something went wrong.
Black-silver heavenly lightning surged around Davis's body, gathering into the palm of his hand as he turned the arcs into a spear. Just as he raised his hand and aimed the heavenly lightning spear at the barrier, it abruptly shook and faded away from his gaze, causing Davis to doubt his eyes as he blinked.
"This… we're being invited?"
Evelynn narrowed her brows as she continued, "Or is it a trap?"
"Whatever it is, let's find out."
Davis enclosed his fist, destroying the heavenly lightning spear as he absorbed its energy back into his body, circulating them in his dantian. After coming this far, he wasn't going to leave without an answer.
Evelynn solemnly nodded and appeared beside him. They hovered their way in together, entering past the barrier. Their cautious mindset remained aware of the surroundings, watching out for any kind of changes in both physical and mental realities. After all, this place was capable of hex attacks.
But contrary to their expectations, they didn't encounter a single trap, and neither did they face a full-fledged attack. Instead, they arrived at the hall where the Three-Eyed Chromatic Hex Arachnid Empress had fully materialized, her glistening eight scythes stabbed onto the surface as they all reflected their figures.
"Evelynn Loret… you've come."
