Divine Emperor of Death-Novel

Chapter 188 Cultvating Essence Gathering Cultivation After A Long Time

It was nothing more than a Peak-Level Earth Grade, Energy Condensation Cultivation Manual. In a few months or years, it would turn obsolete for him but he couldn't help but gulp in the presence of it.

"A Dual Cultivation Manual…" Davis muttered as he read the name of the manual.

Yin-Yang Merit Sutra…

In the Second Layer, there were Earth Grade Dual Cultivation Manuals but all of them were only useful for plucking cultivation, not for cultivating together.

As for the latter, only a few Mortal Grade Manuals were found giving out that method.

Unfortunately, this made dual cultivation seem evil in the eyes of people of the Grand Sea Continent, which made it not suitable for development.

This was why he didn't see any people who dual cultivated in the Grand Sea Continent.

'If only the path of Dual Cultivation moved in the right direction…' Davis sighed as dual cultivation techniques were scarce and looked down upon. He found it quite lamentable that they didn't move in the right direction.

That said, his eyes were not fast but slowly moving, studying the details of the shady yet obscene art.

Time passed…

A few minutes later, he looked up and clapped as he shook his head, "Marvelous…"

"But how do I get Evelynn to read this?" He blurted out but could imagine the blush creeping up on her face. He chuckled as he kept it inside.

"Alright, we'll see about that when the time comes… Now…"

His senses moved to another table which had cultivation techniques. He looked at them for quite a while but couldn't find anything useful.

There were a total of 20 million purple coins, plenty of Earth Grade swords and pills, even a few Sky Grade ones.

"This guy doesn't have spears? A pity…"

Transferring all of his possessions to the High-Level Sky Grade Spatial Ring, he threw the previous ring inside it as well.

As for all the communication crystals, he kept them all in one of his low-grade spatial rings he kept for backup purposes.

Suddenly, he realised that if he could've taken the spatial rings from the geniuses he killed in the spatial tunnel, he would've been ultra-rich by now.

'Well, I bet the people behind me took those and a huge fight broke out for it… Maybe there might be even casualties…' He pondered for a second and the image of a woman clad in red flashed past his mind. He then shrugged and got out of the bed.

He disguised himself as someone else and left Elmer Town.

……

Half a day later, he arrived at the Cloud Spring Mercenaries Headquarters.

He straight away went to the Mission Hall and told that he completed the mission.

To his surprise, the lady nodded her head and handed over a badge which looked like the symbol on his uniform.

"How did you know I completed the mission? Aren't you afraid that I'm lying?" Davis asked as he attached the badge on his chest.

The receptionist lady gently laughed before saying in a mysterious manner, "We have our means…"

"I see, Captain Gyrus must have told you…" Davis smiled as he said.

"How did y…!" The lady went wide-eyed and almost blurted out before she closed her mouth. Though it was useless now since the cat's out of the bag.

He then grinned as he shook his head, 'This lady must've been used to gossiping…'

Suddenly, a voice sounded from behind him, "Young man, how did you find me?"

Davis turned and looked at him as he smiled again, "I didn't…"

Gyrus's eyes frowned in confusion, "Then how…"

"Because from time to time I felt someone gazing at me without any hostile intent behind it."

"I see… you must have sharp senses for that but how did you figure out that it was me?"

"That was just a guess, and her reaction confirmed my guess…" He calmly stated.

"So I gave myself out by walking in here… huh? For some reason, I feel defeated…" Gyrus sighed before he continued, "It must've been at that time, right?"

"Yes, you made yourself a suspect the moment you came to call Lucas and Lucia back."

"I thought so…" Gyrus nodded his head and just when he was about to open his mouth…

"I know that you're following orders, but I don't find it amusing to be monitored. You saw what happened to Young Master Jackson, right?"

"Yes…"

"That could happen to me one day and I don't appreciate that clearly, meaning…"

"Alright, I'll inform our leader about this…" Gyrus clasped his hands and bowed slightly before he made his leave.

Davis stood there pondering for a while before he went back to his room. He didn't care if his disguise as a child was blown or seen through.

The receptionist lady was already on the verge of crying but later sighed in relief as no one came to bother her back.

…

As soon as he set foot inside his room, he sat on the bed in the lotus position.

"Time to breakthrough…" He uttered and revolved the energy in his meridians to the dantian.

His Energy Condensation Cultivation which was halted for a long time showed some signs of improvement.

In one hand, he took out a spirit stone and started absorbing the energy out of it into his dantian.

His dantian continued to be filled with energy.

One stone, two stones, three stones, five stones, ten stones, twenty stones and twenty-five stones.

Davis grit his teeth in pain. His dantian felt like it could explode at any moment.

'This is it! I have to combine all the energy into a core!'

There were many methods that one could use to evolve their core but what Davis used was one of the most basic yet simplest method in the book.

At this point, he felt that if he was right in his decision because of the scarcity of spirit stones. He only had a few dozen left.

'No, regret at this point will only result in backlash!' Thinking so, he made up his mind but at the last moment, danger and inspiration, both struck him.

The energy he trapped in his dantian, leaked and entered back into the meridians.

He turned aghast, if this continued, then he would surely ruin his own meridians, even possibly crippling himself.

Using his wits, he brought five more spirit stones and absorbed them, flooding his meridians.

Veins erupted, his muscles bulged and his expression incredibly pale yet he grit his fists tightly.

'It's fine! My body can handle this!' He chanted in his mind again and again as the pain increased.
