Divine Emperor of Death

Chapter 3845  More Gilded Spheres

Founder Zenflame's shoulders trembled as though he silently laughed. He raised his head and looked at Davis, his gaze flashing.

"I already consumed one for myself, gave three to Fourth Inheritor Shirley, and gave one to Rocksunder. As for the rest, Hirona and Sierra deserve one each, but due to their instability, I've temporarily held off giving it to them, so at least two Gilded Realm Ascendant Pills are available for trade."

He stood up, looking at Davis's sapphire eyes with integrity, "I hope you can conduct a fair trade if you want them. Otherwise, I'm powerless to go against you."

"Of course. A fair trade is all I'm looking for among those who are willing."

Davis smirked, his words containing another meaning, which made Founder Zenflame chuckle dryly.

"What do you have in mind?" Davis asked.

"I want you to obtain the blood of a Seven-Colored Phoenix, Emperor-Tier if possible, but King-Tier is a must. I don't care if this blood is from my own grandson or descendants. As long as you promise to procure the blood for me, this is yours."

Founder Zenflame took one Gilded Realm Ascendant Pill out, his gaze flashing.

Davis couldn't help but smile. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

The other party certainly knew the value of the Gilded Realm Ascendant Pill. It may barely compare to the Emperor-Tier Blood of a Seven-Colored Phoenix since an Emperor-Tier Seven-Colored Phoenix's blood would increase the prowess of a human Empyrean by two or three levels.

For a magical beast, it could be even more ridiculous, but for a magical beast, their blood was mostly all they had.

Still, the Gilded Realm Ascendant Pill provided additional prowess that wasn't going to dilute their other prowess, so it was indeed more valuable.

"I refuse."

However, Davis coldly said.

It made Founder Zenflame move his head back.

He looked confused, "Then… wait… why?"

He knew he wasn't asking for too much, and it was something that would be done in the future, so why did Davis refuse? Could it be that he wanted two pills for this request?

Davis looked frustrated and said, "I'd do that for you since you already gave Shirley three pills. I owe you tremendously for that, so ask something else."

"…!"

Founder Zenflame looked shocked.

That was something he had given to Shirley in order to settle the debts between the Fire Phoenix Clan and him. It was a bribe to forget about them for the transgressions they had committed before and the transgressions they could possibly make while he was doing his best to convince them not to mess with the Divine Emperor of Death and his family.

However, he was branded a traitor and could no longer communicate with the Fire Phoenix Clan. However, that was him failing to meet his end of the deal and couldn't be argued. What was lost was lost.

Therefore, he tried to make a new deal but was told the previous pills were still on the line, shocking him.

"Are you sure?" Founder Zenflame slowly asked.

"Hmm. Maybe I'm not sure." Davis narrowed his brows, "Alright, let's consider it even on that issu-"

"Wait, wait! I'll take you up on that offer."

Founder Zenflame jumped and held Davis's hand, causing the latter to laugh.

The former looked embarrassed before he let Davis's hand go and palmed his own face.

"Alright. I understand you're a person of integrity, so I'll leave these two pills in your care. As for the favors, I can ask later, right?"

Founder Zenflame took out the other pill and placed them both on Davis's palm.

"Damn…"

Davis looked unwilling, "I'm drowning in debt right now. I don't know if I can endure more."

He had sold some favors to Zenova Artoria as well. He didn't know when he could fulfill those debts, but he absolutely detested being in debt.

He couldn't be free with responsibilities stacked on his shoulders, but those were something he willingly took, so the only thing left for him to at least feel the freedom was to be a person free of debt.

"Young man, starting a family is an extreme risk. To keep them fed and protected, you must be willing to enter steep levels of debt."

Founder Zenflame abruptly looked like a sage as he advised Davis.

He raised his hand and grabbed his non-existent long beard, "As long as you can come up in life before finally clearing the debts, then there is nothing that can stop you."

"Or I can take the wealth and run."

Davis said, causing Founder Zenflame to flinch and grab his shoulders.

"That is not the sign of a man of integrity like you, so do your best!"

He pumped his fist and looked excited, while Davis's expression was at a loss.

He didn't know whether to laugh or cry over Founder Zenflame's benevolence and his fate of swimming in debt. However, he opened his mouth again.

"Give the other two pills as well."

"What?"

Founder Zenflame was about to leave, but Davis's words made him turn back with shock.

"As I told you, they're for Hirona and Sierra. I must ask them before giving them to you."

"Well, our family's excellent alchemists have devised a way to dilute the Gilded Realm Ascendant Pills. Consequently, they can dilute one pill into four or five pills, although their rate of success is already so great that they're making five diluted pills per pill, and each diluted pill can grant an Immortal Emperor two levels of prowess easily."

"…"

Founder Zenflame's jaw dropped.

He couldn't even utter a word as he went speechless.

"Don't believe me? Come, I'll take you on a tour."

Davis then took Founder Zenflame on a short tour in the Nine-Treasured Immortal Ordeal Palace as he showed him his unit and displayed the prowess of his wives as they were training their arts or laws as cultivation turned difficult for them, each and every one of them displaying their marvelous strength, which dumbstruck Founder Zenflame, causing him to be silent the whole way.

As soon as Davis finished displaying the prowess of fifteen of his women just for bragging rights, Founder Zenflame told him that it was enough.

There was no need for further evidence when all things pointed towards Davis having successfully manufactured a way to dilute the pills but keep more than half of the efficacy available for consumption in each of the pills.

However, he saw that Davis was absent-minded.

Indeed, Davis finally realized something even though he already knew it.

His wives were all Immortal Emperors while he was still an Immortal King. He felt like crying all of a sudden. Only Myria and Fiora were still at the Immortal King Stage, but the former was almost as powerful as him while the latter was pregnant with his child. Otherwise, Fiora would've entered the Immortal Emperor Stage already.

'I must find a place for breakthrough soon and reach the peak of the Immortal Emperor Stage quick…'

Davis daydreamed about the day when he could finally take the first step into the skies of the giants.

"Excuse me? Are you fantasizing about your own wives in broad daylight?"

Founder Zenflame waved his hand in front of Davis's face, causing him to come out of his reverie and sigh.

"I was fantasizing about becoming the first Empyrean in the family, but it seems I'm too greedy…"

Davis shook his head sadly before he raised one of his brows.

"So, you want two pills or ten diluted pills?"

"If the efficacy of the diluted pills is as you say it is, then ten!"

Founder Zenflame looked excited. If he had so many pills, then the number of things he could do with them would also increase. He wished he had waited a bit before wasting one pill on Rocksunder and even himself.

Davis licked his lips, "It will cost you two diluted pills as payment."

"Fuck! I should've known!"
