Divine Emperor of Death

Half a minute passed before Nadia finally opened her eyes. Her golden pupils abruptly glowed and momentarily brightened the dark cavern before she closed her eyes and reopened again.

The flash of light was no longer bright as her pupils were just slightly glowing in a golden hue.

She took a moment to notice the changes in her body before her eyes widened in glee! Because she recognized this transformation from her newly unlocked bloodline memories!

"M-Master! I've become a King-Tier Twin-Tailed Dusk Wolf!"

Davis suppressed his emotions and smiled but blinked as he noticed the difference in Nadia.

Her voice echoed with excitement and enthusiasm, but it also contained traces of elegance and prestige. It was as if the wildness in her voice disappeared, replaced with a voice of majestic vibes.

"I have become a King!" Nadia excitedly echoed again as she sensed the changes in her body.

Davis became taken aback before he wryly shook his head. He corrected her, "Not a King, but a Queen..."

Nadia became stunned, but at the same moment, dark light illuminated her before she transformed into a human, her lips muttering in a lost tone, "... A Queen..."

While Nadia was lost in her in reverie at the significance of those words, Davis became wide-eyed as he witnessed her become buck naked in all her glory!

He instantly turned back as he adversely reacted, but he had still seen it, her naked image being etched into his mind.

"Cover yourself..."

A voice startled Nadia out of her reverie, and only then did she realize that she was completely naked without a single piece of cloth covering her privates. 

"!!!"

Shame overwhelmed her as she concealed herself with her dark energy! Only then did she conjure up a dark black robe, wrapping it on her body.

Feeling incredibly ashamed, she cursed herself inwardly. She didn't know how she forgot to conjure her robes when she transformed into a human. Her transformation and conjuring of robes were always done instinctively, so she didn't know why she failed to do it this time.

'Is it because of the transformation in my bloodline?' She could only temporarily blame it on this matter.

Her Magical Beast form didn't make her feel ashamed as there was fur covering her, but when she transformed into a human, she felt deeply embarrassed to be in a human's natural form.

'Is this why humans always cover themselves in clothes?' She was starting to sympathize with them deeply.

Davis heaved a sigh as he turned to look back at her. He felt the need to applaud as he could only vaguely sense her when she used her dark energy to hide. It was clear that her concealment ability had reached the Eighth Stage despite her being in the Peak-Level of Seventh Stage.

'She truly lives up to the name of Twin-Tailed Dusk Wolves, being able to hide from the senses of an equal level Soul Forging Cultivator... Except, in this case, she has transcended her limit, causing equal level Soul Forging Cultivators to not be able to find her anymore...'

"King-Tier Magical Beast, huh?" 

Davis felt the need for a gender-neutral term, but it didn't matter as he could just arbitrarily designate Nadia as a Queen-Tier Magical Beast, the gender counterpart of King-Tier.

Nadia reappeared again, but she didn't dare to connect gaze with him for 'some' reason. She stood like a statue, with her eyes lowered.

Davis became stunned again as he looked at her. Before, her naked body had completely taken his attention away, so he failed to notice the changes, but now that he looked at her again, he could see that there were some immense changes to her face and body.

Her sharp facial features became elegant, and more majestic, transforming the wild look she possessed. Her brownish-black hair completely became ink-black while her pupils glowed with a golden hue.

Her posture was stately, and the way she avoided eye contact with him made her look like an embarrassed princess, strengthening her bloodline status as a Queen-Tier Magical Beast.

And lastly, there was a strange mark on her forehead.

Davis felt that it was probably the amalgamation of the horn, but usually, he had personally noticed that none of the unique features of a magical beast appeared in their human form, like the tail or a horn.

Other than the color of their hair and their pupils' color, there was nothing different about magical beasts when they turn human. They looked exactly like humans and not anthropomorphic.

However, the strange black mark with a golden outline on her forehead looked like a crescent moon adorned above a three-petal crown.

Then... Was it the manifestation of her status as a Queen?

'It should be plausible...' Davis mused.

After all, he never saw a King-Tier or a Queen-Tier Magical Beast turn into a human before or even know much about them other than their prowess to be able to battle with normal existences that are two levels higher than them.

"How do you feel? Are there any other internal changes?" He couldn't help but ask.

Nadia blinked her eyes, and the golden-black crescent crown on the middle of her forehead further accentuated her beauty. She pondered for a few seconds before her rosy lips moved, "Other than reaching the Peak-Level King Beast Stage, I no longer feel the shackles in my bloodline..."

"!!!"

Davis silently took a deep breath to suppress his raging emotions, "You mean to say that your Sky Rank Species Bloodline no longer shackles you from reaching the Eighth Stage?

Magical Beasts with Sky Rank Species Bloodline have their strength starting from the Second Stage to the peak of Seventh Stage. The Seventh Stage is their limit unless a King or Queen like Nadia is present where they will be able to battle across levels despite reaching the species limit.

Nadia nodded her head with confidence, "Yes..."

Davis once again felt the need to take a deep breath to calm himself down.

Wasn't this nectar just too heavenly? Being able to break the bloodline shackles of a magical beast without making it undergo mutation? Isn't that basically more than heavenly? Over the level of breaking heavenly laws?

He couldn't help but verify.

"Do you absolutely sense or feel like your bloodline shackles have been removed from you?"

"Yes!" Nadia repeated her words with even more confidence as she looked straight at him, radiating her gleam as a Queen.

Davis creased his brows as his initial surprise faded. The nectar shouldn't be too heavenly, no?

"Does that mean not only you can reach the Eighth Stage without mutating, but you can also reach the Ninth Stage, as well as the fabled Immortal Stage without encountering bloodline shackles?" He asked.

Nadia became momentarily confused before she shook her head. She bit on her lower lip and pondered a few moments before she answered, "My newly enhanced bloodline memories doesn't have any recollection of that... but I know myths and legends about magical beasts who have their bloodline shackles removed."

"It is said that when those magical beasts who have their bloodline shackles removed when they are still in their species' stage limit will undergo a mutation when they naturally breakthrough their limit. This is also in accordance with the heavenly laws."

Davis understood as he heaved a sigh of relief, but his sigh was also filled with disappointment. He thought that he had gained such a heaven-defying resource... 

Nevertheless...
