Chapter 2025: Desecration
Arcadius Skycloud was about to make a move when he saw Davis flick his sleeves and raise his hands, slowly backing up. His eyes turned into two tiny slits, wondering what the Emperor of Death was doing before a hint of derision appeared on his face.
"Are you perhaps surrendering?"
Davis didn't nod nor deny. He continued retreating slowly with an indifferent expression on his face.
"Ahahaha!"
Arcadius Skycloud burst into a fit of laughter before he sneered.
"It's too late to surrender. Perhaps, if you kowtow and beg for your life, I might consider it."
Arcadius Skycloud grinned when his brows suddenly furrowed, his lips pursing. Suddenly, he felt like sothing had latched onto him at this mont, sinister and vile.
*Rumble!~*
However, his expression abruptly changed as he glanced above, looking at the clouds gathering in droves. However, they were…
"The arrival of the crimson clouds signifies a sinner's tribulation that even the heavens loathe..."
Arcadius Skycloud mindlessly uttered a passage from the records of the heavenly tribulation in his Vast Sky Emperor Palace's Library. Sowhere along the lines, his lips began to quiver as he stopped reciting it, slowly moving back before he lowered his head and found a devilish smile looking his way.
"You… it's you..."
Arcadius Skycloud took a step forward, pointing at Davis as he muttered, "You did sothing..."
"Oh my. Don't bla
for the sins you have committed." Davis chuckled with an amused expression on his face, "Who knew you had incurred so much karmic sin on yourself to invite these crimson clouds of sinners? Tell
exactly what thod you used to conceal those abhorrent sins on you, but oh well, it doesn't matter since you can't hide sothing from the heavens. The fair and just heavens will punish you for your-"
"Bastard! I will kill you!"
Arcadius Skycloud shuddered as he cut short Davis's sanctimonious monologue and rushed towards him, his expression full of despair and wrath as he vaguely understood what was going on. The crimson clouds didn't wait and even followed after him. Inside the eye of the swirling crimson clouds, a burst of bright red flas appeared before it shot towards Arcadius Skycloud at this mont, plunging diagonally towards him.
"Wrah! Ah! Ahhh!!!"
Arcadius Skycloud's speed was extrely fast. However, the descending heavenly flas were faster, quickly lighting him up into a human torch, causing him to roll on the ground miserably and crash into a bedrock.
"Ahhhh!!! Help! Help !!! Fuck! It burns!!! Ahhh!!! Die, you vile monster!!! I curse you to eternal damnation!!!"
Davis saw Arcadius Skycloud burning six kiloters away from him, dancing as he flailed around as he tried to rush in his direction, except there were bright red flas that were turning him into cinders, causing him to scream miserably.
Davis's eyes were wide as he sensed the prowess of the heavenly flas. They were two levels above Peak-Level Ninth Stage. Rather than those dark crimson heavenly flas that attacked Nightveil, the ones attacking Arcadius Skycloud were bright red, brimming with a terrifying purging aura.
It was as though it wanted to get rid of the tribulation undergoer with all its might, constantly burning and hushing with a terrifying intensity.
Arcadius Skycloud neared Davis as he closed a distance of four kiloters, having to cross only two more kiloters in order to reach him. However, he plopped to the ground at this mont, having co to a stop as he rolled on the ground, his body visibly crumbling into ashes.
Looking at this scene, Davis just sneered in disdain.
That trash tried to involve him instead of defending against the heavenly tribulation, but it was too bad he made that decision at the last mont. Otherwise, even Davis felt that he might be caught up in the heavenly tribulation, although he could just disappear and play hide and seek with Arcadius Skycloud.
Arcadius Skycloud felt his vision fading, the senses of his body plumting as though they had gone numb.
In reality, having his flesh from neck to toe burned to cinders, only his head was left with the skull and burned flesh. That stubborn skull of his was lit by bright red flas, making him appear like a devil. His eyeballs were also charred, but its pupils could still be seen, emitting a faint glow of disbelief as they flickered.
To ensure karmic luck was on his side, he even gave it his all to help people in their human race for the last few days. His karmic virtue increased from twenty-seven ters to thirty-two ters, almost reaching the limit. However, he didn't know that, only knowing that he had reached a bottleneck of so kind in terms of karmic virtue.
If he had more ti, perhaps, he could've ensured his karmic luck to be more powerful and successfully escaped.
However, Davis ruined his plans halfway, forcing him to ascend. Now, not only did he ruin his ascension, but he also fooled the heavens into believing that he was a sinner.
How could that ever be possible!? Even if it was, just who under the heavens had he offended to be able to fool the heavens like this!?
However, he would never know the answer because the light in his eyes disappeared as they were burned while his skull finally disintegrated, unable to hold the intensity of the flas. His soul was also burned alive, except it didn't even last a second due to its weak cultivation that hadn't reached the level of the heavenly flas.
*Rumble!~*
The scorched ashes scattered in the wind as the heavenly tribulation rumbled and began retreating. The crimson clouds subsided along with the dark bluish lightning clouds, ending up dissipating into nothingness.
"Tsk, tsk. He didn't even survive the cleansing of a single heavenly fla. What a disappointnt..."
Although Davis said that with a faint hint of derision, his expression was full of joy as not only had he caused Arcadius Skycloud to die miserably, the experint he thought of was also a success.
To inflict Arcadius Skycloud with karmic sin, he needed an equal amount of karmic virtue, and that was where the two Emperors displayed their usefulness.
Just before coming here, he stole karmic virtue from the Mandate Emperor and the Karmic Guardian Emperor, increasing his karmic virtue to a new level that it could even match the bright red aura of the karmic sin. Moreover, when he stole karmic virtue from them with a flick of his hand while rushing past them, they didn't even notice, but by now, they might have.
Nonetheless, he didn't check how much karmic virtue he had and arrived here, carving a hole in the spatial defensive formation and unceremoniously sent a two-ter tall karmic sin aura towards Arcadius Skycloud when he flicked his sleeves and raised his hands, making it look like though he had surrendered in reality, used Karmicseizer to curse Arcadius Skycloud with the karmic sin he had gathered.
The mont the two-ter tall karmic sin fell on Arcadius Skycloud even from such a distance, the heavenly tribulation identified him as a sinner and sent the heavenly flas first to destroy him!
That was how he managed to fool the heavens into thinking that Arcadius Skycloud was a sinner, causing it to unleash heavenly flas upon him that burned him to death.
However, it was not like he sent the karmic sin flying towards Arcadius Skycloud, allowing it to defy the relative laws of physics or earthly gravity for about twenty-seven kiloters. For one, he didn't even forcefully wave it, and for the other, it was just a type of aura. Instead, there was a vague black thread connecting him and Arcadius Skycloud, a karmic thread of negative emotions. He could only see it after activating the karmic tendril of Fallen Heaven.
Using that black thread, he sent the karmic sin trailing towards Arcadius Skycloud, and it was like a rope that had caught fire, heading straight towards Arcadius Skycloud and inflicting him with a humongous aura of karmic sin!
Davis's eyes were full of amazent at that mont. It was no wonder karmic techniques were said to be capable of attacking from almost anywhere! They trailed through these invisible threads that cultivators, even cultivators who train in Karma Laws, are unable to see!
At this mont, he felt proud of Fallen Heaven. He thoughts its karmic prowess was just so and so, but now, he had to revamp his view on it. To be able to inflict curses and woes from anywhere like death, now he fully understood why Fallen Heaven could not only cause deaths by destroying their soul imprints but also manipulate them into their deaths while controlling their actions.
Such a terrifying treasure was in his hands. Heck, it fused with him, but It was no wonder Myria said that it caused its users to die an ironic death, ironic because they all thought that they could beco peerless and indomitable only to die a dog's death in the end.
Was that the backlash of using the treasure wrongly? Or…
Davis shook his head and arrived before Arcadius Skycloud's remnant ashes. He absorbed his drifting soul essence for no other reason than to check if he possessed so insights into Space Laws in his soul. Other than that, there was an unhard spatial ring lying on the ground like it was abandoned.
'So heavenly flas only incinerates its target?'
Davis wondered before he took it and bound. At the sa ti, he turned his head to look at the main descendants of the Vast Sky Emperor, who were shuddering like cattle as they held each other, standing densely together in fright over his presence.
He had literally locked and cornered them down as the entrance, or at this point, the exit was just behind him.
