Divine Emperor of Death

Chapter 4848  Real or Unreal?

In the twilight space encompassing nearly a trillion kilometers, a few individuals willingly intruded.

They were none other than the three Venerable Knights who went searching for the Divine Emperor of Death, who fled with the help of a True Exalt Beast.

"What is this place?" Venerable Knight Avarros's brows squinted.

Venerable Knight Walritch narrowed his eyes, "This is… twilight space. It is said that the Daynight Family's Founder was capable of summoning this space through the usage of a Divine Technique, but this… how far does it span?"

Venerable Knight Borges remained quiet for some time before he realized something.

"Elder means the Eternal Twilight Lower Realm's Daynight Family?"

Venerable Knight Walritch nodded.

Venerable Knight Avarros harrumphed, "Isn't that female Divergent by the Divine Emperor of Death's side also capable of using Twilight Laws? I remember they forced the Daynight Family to give away their Exalt Grade Manual. Is she also here?"

"She could be… but there's no way she could be this powerful. Something's not right. Tread carefully…"

Venerable Knight Walritch warned the group and continued to head to the place where they sensed the undulations.

Although there were no longer any undulations, as though the battle had ended and the Divine Emperor of Death was dead under the ruthless and cunning Realm Master of the Six-Headed Hydra Upper Realm, they felt something amiss due to this strange space.

They carefully moved, but it was still fast.

In five minutes, they arrived at the place where they detected the undulations.

"…!"

Their expressions changed as they saw a dark spectral waveform of a hydra with two heads screaming and churning, while the remaining six heads appeared to be severed at the base of the neck. Below it was a naked individual whose flesh and soul were reforming. He appeared ghastly and furious.

Yet he didn't move and continued to reform under the ray of twilight that held a tinge of darkness to it.

"…"

The Venerable Knights frowned.

They searched for the Divine Emperor of Death first, but couldn't find him.

"Shall we kill him once and for all?" Venerable Knight Borges sent a soul transmission to his peers, fully concealing his killing intent as he looked at Realm Master Malzor Hexadra with a gaze full of indifference.

"No, it would prove to be useless." Venerable Knight Walritch said with a cold gaze, "One of their Legacy Artifacts doesn't let them die easily. We would have to deal with that Legacy Artifact before dealing with the Realm Master. Otherwise, they would keep reviving with one soul intact until a fatal blow is dealt, but dealing a fatal blow to someone with a prowess that matches them with Level Three Hierarch is easier said than done."

"Besides, we need to listen to his account to know what happened here. Sealing the Divine Emperor of Death takes the utmost priority."

"I know. It's just killing two evils would've made it an extremely good day."

Venerable Knight Borges nearly snorted in displeasure.

They waited for Realm Master Malzor Hexadra to reform as though defending him.

Realm Master Malzor Hexadra naturally noticed the Venerable Knights, but he didn't pay them heed. Utilizing his darkness energy filled with the abyssal heaviness of the water, his soul was extremely strong and dense.

Only three of his five remaining souls died to Qiyra Darkstar's attack.

However, he didn't panic at all, ready to use Curse Laws to return the favor. It was the fusion of Darkness Laws and Karma Laws. However, his opponents left, leaving him with him to deal with regenerating his own body. He was unsure when the twilight space would end, but until then, he made his body his priority.

Suddenly, the twilight space shook and converged.

"Now…!"

Realm Master Malzor Hexadra uttered, using his complex set of energies and his deep, insightful comprehension to invert the happenings of the twilight space.

His three souls that died suddenly appeared, and his body, which had regenerated by half, abruptly became as good as new. They didn't regenerate but returned to existence as though they had just gone missing for some time.

As the dull and otherworldly black-and-white color of the world disappeared and color returned to the world, Realm Master Malzor Hexadra suddenly stood tall as though he had just descended to this region.

Not a single injury could be seen on his body, and his soul reverberated with powerful undulations. All six of his souls seem to be intact.

The gazes of the Venerable Knights flickered with shock and displeasure.

"What happened?" Venerable Knight Walritch asked coldly.

Realm Master Malzor Hexadra was expressionless as he looked into the distance where his opponents had fled, but hearing the words, he smiled and cupped his hands to them.

"My apologies, O' Great Venerable Knights. I failed to seal the Divine Emperor of Death. I-"

Unexpectedly, he explained and looked so apologetic that it made him appear shameless instead.

The Venerable Knights narrowed their eyes as they heard about Qiyra Darkstar, one of them faintly recalling having seen such a Divergent before.

Nonetheless, they felt Malzor Hexadra was ruthless enough.

He clearly saw that he was overpowered, but still went ahead and directly sacrificed one of his six lives in an attempt to end Davis. However, this strange female Divergent who came from nowhere managed to block it.

Realm Master Malzor Hexadra reported it like a good and righteous Realm Master, but inwardly, he was cursing.

'Tch, if I weren't worried that roach would escape somewhere in his soul form due to his undying nature, I would've crushed him the moment I found him…'

He was beyond furious, but that helped him keep calm instead. He couldn't believe that there had been such a powerful Divergent hidden in the Upper Realms. If he had known, he wouldn't have been reckless and kept his distance while not letting them leave until many helpers arrived.

Together, they could've sealed the Divine Emperor of Death, but he messed up. The Imagery Stone was also destroyed.

Nonetheless, he didn't move forward, not knowing if he would get trapped by the twilight space.

'That ring… I suspect it's a replica of the Necklace of Light and Darkness. In that case, even if I don't die, I would keep losing. Hmm, I need to poison them from a distance, let them writhe on the floor in their own putrid blood…'

Realm Master Malzor Hexadra's hands twitched.

He turned to the Venerable Knights again and cupped his hands, "Please help me find the Divine Emperor of Death before he leaves the realm. If he leaves, not even a Hierarch-level character like me can guarantee an end to this terrifying calamity that haunts our galaxy."

"Rest assured. We will find him." Venerable Knight Walritch said perfunctorily before the four of them continued searching.

However, Realm Master Malzor Hexadra clearly kept his distance.
