Chapter 1808: Spirit Ancestral Grounds

Chapter 1807: Spirit Ancestral Grounds

Davis thought about his odds of gaining entrance to the inheritor’s tomb without eating the Inflamed Kirin Cherry Fruit and recognized it could be less. However, since he possessed the Blazing Thunderlight Kirin’s Firestorm World Ode and the Blazing Thunderlight Kirin Immortal’s authentic soul mark, he mused that he more or less had some chance to successfully retrieve the three drops of blood essences.

Since he had the requirements, he could storm the tomb, but he also felt that he lacked the strength in case if he was going to be subjected to harm.

From Isabella and Shirley’s case, he understood that inheritors were capable of reaching four levels higher or three levels higher at the very least as long as they didn’t screw up in their cultivation journey and this inheritor seemed to have successfully ascended, which meant this inheritor’s tomb shouldn’t be certainly looked down upon.

Although Davis had Fallen Heaven’s prowess to rely on, he still wanted to make sure nothing went wrong.

He returned to their temporary base and headed towards the cultivation cave where Iesha and Natalya were together.

Fortunately, they hadn’t entered cultivation yet and were just making some small talk with Fiora.

“Husband, you’re back…?”

Fiora blinked, her eyes revealing her confusion.

“Right, I wanted to borrow Iesha to know whom I should target.”

Iesha nodded, “The Ravaging Crimson Star Spirit you fought before went by the name Zen Ravager. He is a traitor of the Ravaging Crimson Star Spirit Tribe and is strong as their chief. For one, they were brothers from the same father and mother, but they had different notions that led to conflict. Also, he regularly raids my Frigid World Spirit Empire Territory and kidnaps ice and water spirits, doing hideous things to them. Due to his power, we were unable to do anything, and since he didn’t touch us, Frigid World Spirits, we were disinclined to move heavily against him.”

“Then who keeps him in check? Couldn’t he do as he pleases?” Davis narrowed his brows in confusion.

“That’s the Spirit Ancestral Ground’s work. They regulate the laws of the spirit lands and bring order whenever they can. However, the Spirit Ancestral Ground is so big in terms of inclusiveness as it contains spirits of all elements, and therefore, it also has many internal conflicts as different spirits have different views. They also tend to protect spirits of their own element sometimes, and my… father is also a part of it.”

“So it’s a gathering of a group, more like an alliance…”

“You can say that.” Iesha nodded, “All the hegemonic chiefs are a part of it, but there are also a small group of Spirit Ancestors who are a bit more powerful than them.”

“Alright, what I want to know is where I can find spirits like Zen Ravager instead of randomly offending Spirit Ancestors.”

“Mhm, I’ll lead you to their last seen whereabouts after I get information from the Spirit Ancestral Ground Branch somewhere in this place. No fire spirits will dare to directly attack me in a city.”

“Mhm, a human and an ice spirit walking together in a city almost full of fire spirits.” Davis nodded before he couldn’t help but crack a wry smile, “I highly doubt it…”

“Uh… I guess you’re right.” Iesha felt embarrassed of her naive thoughts as she fiddled with her snow-white hair, “We should head west and enter the Spirit Ancestral Ground Territory. From there, it would be much easier.”

“Understood. Let’s depart.”

“I want Natalya to come together with me.” 

Iesha suddenly pointed at Natalya with an innocent face, causing the latter to blink. 

Davis didn’t look troubled. Instead, he smiled that they were getting along as he intended.

“Alright, I’ll wait outside. Come as soon as you’re done stabilizing your cultivation so far.”

“Mhm…”

Iesha nodded. She reached the Sixth Stage in Body Tempering Cultivation with the nectar, so she had to stabilize it slightly. 

After Davis left, Natalya still blinked before she looked towards her little sister.

“Stop strangely worrying for me. I can take care of myself…” 

Fiora pouted, causing Natalya to narrow her eyes.

“Oh, you are a big girl now, are you?”

“Elder sis~ Stop teasing me. I’m telling that I’m going to be more indebted to you than ever that if you keep watching out for me like this.”

“What’s so wrong with that? We are sisters and even together with the same man. Our lives won’t part, but we’ll live together. As the elder sister, I must rightfully take care of you.”

“Ah! So hateful…”

Fiora still kept pouting, but her eyes were becoming misty. She adored her elder sister more than anything before she met Davis that she tried to even sacrifice her innocence to a dubious man to save her elder sister.

Even now, she felt that decision wasn’t a mistake or something she would regret when looking back. The dubious man was the man she later unwittingly fell in love with, after all.

After a few minutes later, Iesha and Natalya regrouped with Davis outside and headed towards the Spirit Ancestral Grounds Territory. As usual, they didn’t go through the Territory Gate but ripped apart Territory-wide fog and entered the Spirit Ancestral Grounds Territory.

The moment they ripped through, they were met with a group of wind spirits patrolling. They turned to look at them. However, they narrowed their eyes, wondering what was happening as they saw the agape maw in the fog closing in on itself.

“Hehe~”

Iesha couldn’t help but giggle as she saw their confusion. Davis’s death energy concealed them. Therefore, no one was able to see them, but the patrol did end up reporting the incident with a messaging talisman. However, they moved on before anyone could come to investigate.

“It’s surprising to see that wind spirit use a messaging talisman,” Davis commented.

“Mhm, only the Spirit Ancestral Grounds that sealed the spirit lands possess what humans left. We don’t possess the method to create messaging talismans, and even if we do, we don’t share them.”

“Woah, spirits understand strategic warfare…”

“I don’t know what that means, but we simply don’t have enough to go about. That’s all.”

Iesha shook her head.

“But still, I thought you would kill those Spirit Manifestation Stage Wind Spirits to help Fiora cultivate.”

“Haha, I’m not that ruthless of a person.” Davis laughed but looking at her blink at him; he cleared his throat and explained.

“In the past, I always tried to stay clear of trouble and killed only those whom I thought deserved to die. Now, even though I have something that makes me identify wicked people, I still can’t be sure. My Evelynn killed many people for me as revenge, and she ended up incurring karmic sin. This made me understand that having karmic sin isn’t necessarily an evil thing. It’s just decided by heaven’s will that it is wrong. Not wrong to me who got almost killed by a bunch of powers combining their prowess.”

Davis spoke with conviction. 

He agreed that killing children was wrong, but at that time, Evelynn wasn’t in control of herself and just wished to end the life of the people belonging to the power who had a hand in almost killing him. However, he still didn’t understand how her karmic sin could grow so big. There’s no way she killed that many children, meaning that all those who were in the outer part of the Poison Lord Villa was not to be associated in her revenge according to heaven’s will.

There’s no other way he could make sense of it with his current knowledge.

“That’s why I need your help to identify some wicked targets. As for Zen Ravager, he was just unlucky that he decided to be disrespectful to you. Otherwise, I wouldn’t even have known that he was a wicked spirit.”

“I see…” 

Iesha instantly knew that she was probably demanded or something of similar nature. This is why she hated fire spirits, other than the fact that their elemental nature didn’t align with hers.

After some time, they arrived at the outskirts of a city, brimming with different kinds of spirits. The scenery was fantastical, fiery lights paved many paths, water ran in streams over many trenches, wind brewed in the skies above, and some places had their own attraction.

It was as though he entered a park of nature, making him admire its beauty.

“Stay here. I’ll go get the information we need.”

Davis nodded to Iesha. She then planted a light kiss on his cheek before she flew away.

He blinked as he was caught off guard, but he then smiled at her disappearing silhouette.

Natalya stayed together with him as she also smiled. However, her lips curved with worry.

“I wonder if the others would be fine…”

“There’s no need to worry. I set up a concealment formation and have Eldia pro-.”

“I’m more worried about Yotan or Bylai Zlatan betraying.” Natalya interrupted Davis, “Perhaps, they both will…”

Davis pursed his lips as his expression became wry.

“I think… that won’t happen.”

“What makes you say that?”

To Natalya’s question, Davis lifted his hand and started counting his fingers.

“They’re not such backstabbing people as far as I’ve seen. They know they can’t escape from me and could die at any time. More than anything, I know they have special feelings for me.”

“Ah, so evil…” Natalya’s mouth parted at him.

“What’s so evil about it? Their feelings towards me are nothing more than adoration or something of a similar level. It won’t become that prominent unless they willingly let themselves be crushed by their own feelings. You, Fiora, and especially Lea are all the same. You couldn’t forget me like they couldn’t, could you?”

“Yes…” Natalya bit her lips as she blushed.

“Mhm.” Davis satisfactorily nodded, “People could forget before that feeling becomes a binding curse, and I think they would forget and move on as long as I don’t bother with them. That’s for the best.”

“Are we a curse? Do you look down on us?”

“Heh…” Davis couldn’t help but chuckle, “Ironically, I think I don’t deserve you all sometimes as I don’t make enough time as a husband should. Guess we have these passing thoughts all the time.”

Natalya gazed at him as she smiled. She found the time spent sharing their thoughts was one of the most precious moments as it helped her understand him and hopelessly fall in love more.

“I want to be by your side forever.”

Her melodious voice resounded with deep emotions, causing Davis’s brows to raise before he reached out his hand and held her soft yet pale white cheek.

“What’s up?”

“Nothing…” Natalya grabbed his hand with hers and relaxed in his palm’s warmth, “I just want to be pampered like this as I now have you all to myself.”

Davis smiled at her before he leaned and kissed her forehead, making Natalya feel the love she wanted. As they stayed and cuddled together, Iesha returned before it could take longer.
