Chapter 3666 A Bloody Saber


    Davis watched the progression of the Candidacy for some time before he returned his gaze to Ste.


    "Howe you vultures are not bald but have a ruby crown? Is it obtained, or is it a natural growth?


    He saw that she was talking to a female Soul-Devouring Blood Vulturewho wasat the Immortal King Beast Stage.


    Apparently,she was a failed Young Mistress candidate of this n. She married Harmon.


    By all means, he should''ve killed her but it seems that their marriage was onlyin-nameand not fulfilled. Harmon was recently awoken in the Heavenly Ice Stasis Valley, so it wasn''t like they promised to each other. In fact, she was married to Harmon to offset her failure to be a Young Mistress while Harmon himself didn''t have time to fulfill the marriage as he trained for the Candidacy.


    He confirmed through soul-searching her, so he didn''t go as far as to kill her.


    His targets here were Immortal Emperors alone. He killed as many as twelve of them, eight at the Early Stage, four at the Mid Stage, and one at the Late Stage. The Late Stage Immortal Emperor was a Soul-Devouring Blood Vulture Fey who barely managed to lock him down but was overpowered by Ste.


    Needless to say,he had absorbed all of their soul essences and couldprehend their destructive karmic property throughprehension clouds, so he was rather excited.


    Nevertheless, hedid endup killing her grandfather,who wasa Grand Elder, a Level Three Immortal Emperor Beast.But unexpectedly, shedidn''t feel anyhatred towards him, as though she had weed such a result.


    Nheless, seeing Ste casually talk to that female magical beast, he wanted to warn her not to be too friendly.


    Then again, Ste was a good girl.Her natural disposition wasshe waskind to all life as long as they didn''t needlessly provoke her. He wondered if it would be good to interfere in her growthas hedidn''t want to shape it into a deadly persona like her mother''s. He liked her cheerfulnesstoo.


    "Your eminence, can you take me with you?"


    Noticing his gaze, that female magical beast walked towards him and knelt on the ground, her gaze lowering.


    "I''m prepared to be your magical beast mount, even if it means sharing a ve beast contract."


    "You think you''re worthy?"Davis coldly uttered, causing her to shudder.


    She knew full and well how this person, who was on the same level as her, took down all the Immortal Emperors of her n ina span offifteen minutes. She guessed it would''ve been even earlier if the Immortal Emperors hadn''t run around or if he hadn''t slowly battled with them as though wanting to experience their powers, even their tricks and habits.


    From what she had seen, it was a one-sided ughter.


    Such a person wouldn''t even care about her. She heard he even had an Emperor-Tier Beast as a wife, so she wasn''t shocked that she got rejected but felt fearful that she had overstepped her bounds.


    However, no punishment came.


    ''Wait a minute… these Soul-Devouring Blood Vultures would make a fine mount for my Reaper Soul Legion…''


    Davis suddenly thought but shook his head.


    If beasts acted like beasts, it would be fine, but in this world, beasts were not onlysentientbut also cultured and civilized.Hecouldn''t make them act like they were mounts alone and introduce a variable inhisarmy.


    ''Well, the magical beasts in the true immortal world are mostly wild, like feral beasts, soI can cherry-pick them for my Reaper Soul Legion…''


    Davis inwardly nodded.He also thoughtthatthe Reaper Soul Legion needed to strengthen themselves more thantoride some mounts.Even with the resources they obtained and the resources he granted them, theywere finding it difficultto catch up with him or the prowess of his wives.


    Even Yotan was barely keeping up, so he wanted togosee her soon to do something about it. Davis tookouta saber and waved it in front of the entire n as though showing off, causing their eyes to turn bloodshot or shameful. His lips couldn''t help but curl as he knew that they wanted nothing but to kill him, as he made their n a mess.


    The item he took out was none other than the Soulfire Ruby Saber, the mostpowerfuloffensive Legacy Artifact of the Soul-Devouring Blood Vulture n.


    From what he heard, it seemedto beforged from a fallen star, the ruby crystal on their forehead, and theirtalon. It was a sharp, curved de approximately three feet in length. At its base, a massive blood-red ruby pulsated as though there was an inner fire that went out and burnedbrightlyas though thirsting for blood.


    As a Legacy Treasure, it had more than one ability.


    The first was the Soulfire Strike, which allowed the saber to burst into blood-soul mes. If it stabbed a High-Level Immortal Emperor''s soul body, the main body would have a ny percent chance of dying because of its incredibly high destructive karmic property.


    The second ability was called Bloodthirsty Sacrificial Empowerment. It was when ten percent of the user''s blood essence was sacrificed to it, allowing it to temporarily boost one''s max prowess by one level as long as they werepatible with blood attribute and didn''t surpass the saber''s grade. However, doing so would damage the de itself, causing it to chip and be useless fora period of time. It was considered ast resort. Of course,hesaw signs of this technique''s activation, but Ste managed to yank it from that Immortal Emperor before he could activate it.


    Most importantly, the third ability was called Blood Devouring sh.It was a passive ability and seemedto becapable of stealing blood essence with every sh it made on a person, depending on where it cuts and how deep it cuts, making it ridiculously valuable.


    This stored blood essence can then be used to unleash the Soulfire Strike repeatedly, and in the case it possesses the blood of the victim when it struck the victim, its destructive karmic prowess would only rise in power, leaving the shes almost untreatable due to the remnant energy haunting them if they didn''t die from the attacks.


    They would eventually sumb sooner thanter if left untreated.


    It made him once again understand why they would be chased to extinction. They may be small in numbers, but their average prowess was above average,parable to Dragons and Phoenixes, while the danger they posed was much more significant.


    Davis took a second look at the Soulfire Ruby Saber.


    He couldn''t think of any better weapon than this for Schleya.


    However, he also knew Schleya was too attached to her blood-attributed curved des, Crescentblood. He didn''t know if she would use this armament even if she epted it. n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om


    In the same way, Davis also felt if Schleya needed the Soul-Devouring Blood Vulture''s blood essence, he could use this female magical beast as a source.


    He saw that she still didn''t reveal anykind ofhatredtowardshim.Even his Heart Intent failed to find any. In fact,therewas only gratefulness and fear, making him honestly confused. Heguessed that she didn''t want that marriage or to be controlled, butif she didn''t want to be controlled, it didn''t make sense for her to offer herself to him on a silver tter ande under him with a ve beast contract.


    ''She''s after power…?''


    Davis guessed before he kept the saber inside his spatial ring and opened his mouth.


    "What is your name?"He already knew, but he still asked her.


    "My name is Licora Harmon."


    Davis couldn''t help but smile.


    The Harmon didn''te from marrying Harmonbutshe was part of the Harmon n that Harmon created before he went to sleep in the Heavenly Ice Stasis Valley. Soin essentiality, Harmon was marrying his own great granddaughter hundreds or thousands of generations down the line, which made them mostly divorced from each other''s gics but still made Davisugh as the cultivation world was funny with these types of rtionships.


    He raised his hand, his voiceechoing out in amanding tone,"I mayhave a need foryouin the near future.You may wait for me, and if I don''te within a month, it means I don''t need you."


    "Understood, your eminence- no, my lord~"


    "…"


    Davis inwardly shook his head at Licora Harmon''s words.


    Shewas going tobe hated by her brethren and sisters to death, as what she did wasa clearbetrayal of her n. However, it wasn''t like they couldn''t do anything about it, as she was the strongest person here.


    Despite being a magical beast, he could sense her prowess was three levels higher.


    Clearly,her soul was mightier than any Saint Magical Beast.


    As for the Young Mistress, she had been a Level Two Immortal Emperorwhom hecarved her bird face with Yama and caused her to screechloudlybefore he severed her into two. Perhaps Licora Harmon liked that scene and chose toe under him as he saw in her memories that she hated the Young Mistress very much for bullying and torturing her with influence.


    It was like her suppressed soul had finally been granted relief by him.
