Divine Emperor of Death
Chapter 563 Entering The Core Grounds
The reason why Davis still hadn't checked Fallen Heaven's power to kill Eighth Stage Experts is that those he met were all part of an Emperor Grade Power where numerous other Eighth Stage Experts or Ninth Stage Powerhouses exist. They held the helm of their families and saw to it that their juniors and uprising geniuses didn't die halfway.
If they managed to find that he was the one who killed their expert, then he would undoubtedly be chased to the end of the world to be executed. He didn't want to attract higher-level Eighth Stage Experts or Ninth Stage Powerhouses for a silly reason such as experimenting.
For this reason, he felt that he had to target lone Eighth Stage Experts to test Fallen Heaven's powers so that there won't be any repercussions in the future.
As for Magical Beasts, when he hunted in the Tyrannical Blue Ape Mountain Range, it became clear to him that Magical Beasts possesses souls almost equalling to their current stage and level, hence killing Lord Beast Stage; Seventh Stage Magical Beasts became impossible to him since their souls were also at the Seventh Stage.
Perhaps his Mid-Level Mature Soul Stage gave a boost to Fallen Heaven's prowess, so there's a chance that he might be able to kill at least Low-Level Seventh Stage Beasts but remained to be seen.
The Law Dominion Experts here all had their souls around Fourth Stage, and even Eighth Stage Experts didn't differ much with only a rare minority of them being at the Fifth Stage, perhaps even in the Sixth Stage.
Hence, Davis felt he would be able to generally kill Eighth Stage Experts as well, as long as their souls don't exceed his Soul Forging Cultivation by a tremendous degree.
In any case, half of this was just his conjectures, because of that, he would have to eventually try it in the future, and he just hoped that it wouldn't be now since there were too many experts here in this Alchemy Convention.
Besides, his love was with him as well.
With his cautiousness warning him as alarm bells rang, just when he finally decided on which path to take, he felt a person near him.
He turned his head to the side and looked at the person approaching him.
Dark black hair that reached till his shoulders, sharp brows adorned his clear black eyes and a trimmed beard that accentuated his rough lips. He had a well-proportioned body that was tight fitted by a dark blue full-sleeve robe but his bearing was similar to an Elder's.
"Young man, I get the feeling I've seen you somewhere. Have we met before?"
Davis narrowed his eyes as he wasn't able to grasp the other party's cultivation since the latter kept his undulations in check.
He pondered for a second but couldn't tell where he met this man. His memory was good with his Soul Forging Cultivation supporting his thought process, however, he just couldn't remember meeting this man before.
'It's probably a form of greeting... Or is this person just trying to act mysterious and scam me?' Davis revealed a smile and said, "I guess not..."
The man looked middle-aged but since he addressed Davis as young and acted as an elder, Davis thought that this person's age could be more than five hundred.
"Is that so? Strange..." The middle-aged man pursed his lips with a perplexed gaze before chuckling a bit, "Where are my manners? I apologize for suddenly intruding."
"Young man, since we met, why don't we head together inside?" The middle-aged man laughed before he slapped his forehead, "I forgot to say my name! Really, introducing self is unneeded unless we're acquaintances but we're clearly not... The manners that one needs to have in a social scene is quite a drag..."
Davis became speechless. This man suddenly came to him and asked if they were familiar and then wanted to go inside the core grounds together while complaining that he didn't know about manners and that it was a drag?
'What is he playing at?'
Even Evelynn felt that they were approached by a creep.
"My name is Agis Stirlander. What's yours?" The man who introduced himself clasped his hands.
"Davis Loret..." Davis didn't hesitate and shot a glance towards his side, "This is my wife, Evelynn Loret."
Agis Stirlander's eyes lit up as he nodded at Evelynn as a form of greeting. He then gestured towards the core grounds, "Shall we move on then, or has young man still has matters to attend?"
Davis let this lips curve into a smile and walked forwards, prompting Agis Stirlander to instantly catch up with them while chuckling.
However, the next instant, numerous eyes shot over them almost giving Evelynn a heart attack, however, she saw them retract their gazes when Law Dominion undulations sprouted beside them.
It was none other than Agis Stirlander.
Davis finally he the other party's cultivation and the latter shot a smile at him, his expression revealing to Davis that they're welcome.
Davis became speechless again, 'It's not like I wanted your help to get past this place...'
He had already decided to head inside the core grounds as he felt that there would not be many repercussions if he were to tell that he was none other than the subordinate of the Conferred Queen.
Then, it didn't matter if they looked down on him but they would have to think twice before making a move on him, especially when there's already an alchemist robe indicating that he was a Peak-Level Sky Grade Alchemist, further entrenching his status in the Alchemy Convention.
Nevertheless, he wryly nodded his head back to Agis Stirlander as a form of recognition.
Without Agis Stirlander's help, he certainly would have to prove himself to enter the core grounds which would've attracted some troublemakers' attention and caused a small scale dispute.
'Who knows?' Davis inwardly lampooned.
If this were a web novel, he imagined that the small scale dispute that would have happened, escalated, extending to tens of chapters! Unfortunately, in his life, such a future seemed less likely since he always tried to be low-key.
After this, the three of them roamed around together, visiting various places that were under King Grade Alchemists.
King Grade Alchemists had their own complexes as they arranged their pills extravagantly over individual showcase tables. Each one of the King Grade Pills was like diamonds, glowing in ambient light while the people's eyes reflected its radiance.
Besides the pills were descriptions explaining their uses and effects in a detailed manner.
In a particular complex, Davis and the other two had their eyes shining when they looked at the King Grade Pills kept on showcases.
Some of the women who were at the Sixth Stage, looked at the pills like they were pieces of jewelry kept on display.
Davis even saw one of those women purchase a pill while acting cozy to a man, making him fork out the wealth for the pill. After this, the servant who was working here took the pill that was placed on a jade container out of the display case.
He then brought out a spherical shaped locket after which he presented it to the women as a form of accessory used to keep the pill.
When Davis noticed the description of the pill, he instantly became flabbergasted.
