Chapter 1405 - Cannot Survive
Esvele beca stunned as she heard Ancestor Cornelia's words, while Freya also displayed a similar reaction.
Did Davis actually include their nas into the condition? What under the heavens was he thinking, lowering the chances to make this negotiation succeed!?
If it failed because of them, it was rather obvious how saddened they would feel about it.
"Well, I wouldn't care if they died, but my cute Shirley is going to cry if you accidentally take advantage of her by holding them hostage." Davis narrowed his eyes, looking like a scher before he chuckled, "Why wouldn't Ancestor Cornelia commit suicide? You already know that your life is finished anyway, so making
instantly obey the Blood Soul Contract is well within my expectations."
Ancestor Cornelia stared at him with exasperation as she clenched her teeth.
"I won't go that far to obtain Incandescent Vermilion Soul Mantra as I still have to see what you have in store for us. Besides, I do not know what kind of actions you would take in the future that might potentially harm my sect, not to ntion that because of your slaughter; there is plenty of chances that the wicked path might get triggered and attack us because, in their perspective, they might only have one or two Ancestors at High-Level Ninth Stage to attack now!"
"Moreover, I still want to live if you ask ! Every being under the heavens does as it is as natural as to simply exist!"
She unexpectedly beca emotional, causing Davis and Sect Master Lea Weiss to know that she hadn't fully accepted dying. They couldn't help but blink, but as expected, there would always be regrets that one could only suppress when they are about to die.
Truly accepting death was just a montary delusion at the mont of death.
Davis viewed Ancestor Cornelia with complex emotions before his lips moved.
"Then I don't understand why you are not l.u.s.ting after their Fire Phoenix Flas. No matter who these two are, they are not your kin for you to deeply care about."
He pointed at Shirley and Sect Master Lea Weiss, looking at Ancestor Cornelia with a suspicious gaze.
"Heh! Fire Phoenix Flas?"
"We Burning Phoenixes are actually weak in prowess because our ancestors who birthed us were re Emperor Beast Stage Magical Beasts themselves. They were not Immortal Beasts."
"If our ancestors were Immortal Beasts, and had we maintained our bloodline properly, we wouldn't have gotten so weak. The unity between our ancestors gave birth to us, and we are as powerful as they were, but because of the earlier reason and our decline in terms of bloodline quality, we have beco severely weak from the ti we have entered this world."
"Not only us but all the Emperor Rank and King Rank Species Magical Beasts truly do suffer from the bloodline thinning-out problem if they could not maintain their bloodline quality by eating specific resources that would enrich their bloodline. There's practically no way around it."
"I have no need for their blood because it wouldn't even serve to increase my lifespan a bit, but just serve to increase my power. My only path to gaining eternal life is to beco an Immortal Beast and possibly mutating into a Fire Phoenix or a Vermilion Bird as an additional gain, not the other way around as my fires of vitality has already been extinguished."
"Nevertheless, I can still f.o.r.c.i.b.l.y try to beco an Immortal Beast as my full bloodline potential of my Burning Phoenix Blood allows
to attract a Heavenly Tribulation when I try to breakthrough past this stage, but that doesn't work, not in these tis where the Territory Gates absorb even the tiniest bit of the purest strands of heaven and earth energy in the atmosphere that an Immortal would use in ancient tis, not allowing
to collect a few strands of this purest energy that could increase my energy, helping
reach the very peak in order to attract the heavenly tribulation naturally, enough to at least have a chance against it!"
Davis blinked, feeling like he had sothing truly important but not relevant to their conversation. Nevertheless, her aning was entirely clear to him.
Ancestor Cornelia lacked the peak energy she required to summon a heavenly tribulation naturally but could still f.o.r.c.i.b.l.y call one as long as she could invoke her bloodline potential, but she lacked the basic acc.u.mulated energy to survive the heavenly tribulation and beco an Immortal Beast! Her instincts know that she would not survive, so she doesn't dare to summon it!
It made him wonder how a heavenly tribulation of a magical beast would be like as he began to imagine.
"In fact, I suspect that you might be lying and won't acknowledge this Blood Soul Contract."
"Aren't you practicing Death Laws for your Soul Forging Cultivation? How are you able to manipulate the Incandescent Vermilion Soul Mantra when you also practice Death Laws?"
"Even without having any knowledge about the manual, it is obvious that a Vermilion Bird wouldn't know about Death Laws. Did you show us a high-level Illusion Art that deceived even my senses?"
Davis looked visibly confused about her question.
"Mhm? I'm able to practice Death Laws while also using this cultivation thod. Therefore, can't you see that I have a special soul constitution?"
It was as if he expected Ancestor Cornelia to already know about it that she frowned, feeling looked down upon, but despite that, she questioned.
"What kind of soul constitution?"
"Don't know. I wish soone else could tell ..." Davis naturally lied as he breathed, sighing as if it was a real pity.
Ancestor Cornelia looked at him with her narrowed eyes before she slowly nodded her head.
Death Laws was one of the most mysterious, terrifying, and elusive laws that were present in this world as it ca as it pleased and reaped lives suddenly without any signs. Even finding an environnt with Death Laws is practically impossible, but knowing what kind of death-attributed constitution or physique one had was even more impossible.
"But it makes sense..." Ancestor Cornelia continued, "No wonder you're able to comprehend Death Laws to a terrifying degree. Even when those Death Law Cultivators ran rampant, they were all Soul Emperors while you were a re Soul King, but not one of them managed to kill a cultivator a stage higher than them in an instant. You are truly one of a kind that I feel like I should eliminate while I have the chance, but I also cannot deny that I haven't heard of you before."
"Therefore, I certainly do not want to be the reason for you to fall into the wicked path."
Ancestor Cornelia looked at the disguised Chu Feng and Shirley and couldn't help but feel that history was repeating itself.
The union of the Fire Phoenix and the Vermilion Bird signified their creation, birthed the existence of Burning Phoenixes into the fray. And now, this supposed master and disciple, carrying the legacies of the Vermilion Bird and Fire Phoenix, respectively, made her doubt if this was truly fate.
Perhaps, this denoted a significant turning point in the future of her Burning Phoenix Ridge!
'I can now only hope what I decided wouldn't invite a calamity late in any form...'
Ancestor Cornelia took a deep breath, looking at Davis before she anded her part a bit before she soul bound the Blood Soul Contract, further strengthening the connection she and the Blood Soul Contract would share with Chu Feng if he acknowledged it as well.
The Blood-Soul Contract was variable with how one could use both their blood essence or soul essence to form a contract. In this case, Ancestor Cornelia had little to no blood to spare. She was nervous that she might drop dead sooner than she expected if she extracted blood essence from her body.
She sent it back to him, beckoning him to seal the deal.
However, as long as Ancestor Cornelia follows her words, he didn't have any thoughts on backing out as well.
The Incandescent Vermilion Soul Mantra may be sothing huge to the current him, connecting his way to the Immortal Stage in terms of soul. However, he was only giving the part till the Eighth Stage for now, and even if he had to give the entire manual now, to beco a Soul Emperor was extrely hard that he mused that he mused that he wouldn't see a single Soul Emperor in the Burning Phoenix Ridge, not considering Shirley for at least the next hundred or thousand years, which was more than enough ti for him to get an extrely good Soul Forging Cultivation Manual that actually supported Death Laws!
Surely, if stories of these wicked path Death Law Cultivators existed, the manual itself must be present sowhere, right?
Nevertheless, Davis deviously smiled inside.
This Blood Soul Contract had a dangerous loophole that he could use to not give this sect the Ninth Stage part of the Incandescent Vermilion Soul Mantra!
Unexpectedly, Ancestor Cornelia wanted to live.
So if he could find a way for her to increase her lifespan despite all the thods that she had used and gained dicinal resistance to, she would obviously be willing to take it as if her life depended on it. This fact also ant that she would not die any sooner, and consequently, he would not have the need to give the complete Incandescent Vermilion Soul Mantra to them!
