Divine Emperor of Death

Davis's pupils shrunk at Everlight's revelation.

He wondered if she was high in her bloodline, but considering the amount of mind-boggling revealing she had done, he was inclined to believe her, but this information was really just indigestible as it held a tremendous meaning, just as synonymous with a game breaker.

"Just h-how would you do that?" Davis asked.

"My…" Everlight hurriedly collected her thoughts, "My tails and azure life orbs carry a tremendous amount of life energy that will help invigorate a magical beast's bloodline potential as it causes their blood pumping from their heart to undergo a primordial-level change, purifying it to the extreme and allowing them to step into the Emperor-Tier."

"…"

"Of course, this is the ability of my second species technique's second level. As for the first level, I'm able to cause a bloodline change for them to become King-Tier with just a single tail."

Everlight kept smiling and nodding like a fox with her mouth open, but Davis could only remain frozen at the spot.

"…" The others were struck speechless.

"I don't know what's going on, but I think she just said something that has my full attention and support." Isabella blinked innocently, "How much should I have to pay for my beloved Mira to be evolved into an Emperor-Tier Earth Dragon? What are the chances?"

"If I sacrifice three of my tails and the recipient has a prowess similar to mine, then chances are certainly more than seventy percent. However, it is assumed that the recipient would at least step into the King-Tier. If I only sacrifice one tail to use the first level of the second species technique, there is more than a ninety percent chance to do so."

Everlight further explained that the second species technique was named Bloodline Impelling Evolution: Noble. It was the first level, allowing one to advance to King-Tier easily with a considerably little failure rate.

As for the second level, it seemed to be named Bloodline Impelling Evolution: Regal, allowing one to advance into Emperor-Tier or, if failed, allowing them to advance into King-Tier by default.

"There's no price. Although it would take me two hundred and seventy years or so to regain my three tails, I'm prepared to wait that long if it is to repay master and prove my loyalty." Everlight ended her speech as her melodious voice resounded in their ears, giving them wet dreams.

Especially Mira, who heard it from Isabella's soul sea, was stunned beyond compare, practically drooling as though she was going to eat Everlight even if someone said no.

Nonetheless, everyone was silent for a few moments, waiting for Davis to speak.

"Uhem~"

Davis coughed awkwardly, hiding his mouth before he gestured.

"You wouldn't happen to have a third species technique, would you?"

Everlight thought hard for a moment as she looked up at the fake skies before she answered.

"Unfortunately, those two are the only species techniques I possess for being an Emperor-Tier Nine Lives Gracious Fox. However, I possess three more species techniques as a Light Sky Wolf raised to Emperor-Tier, one of which I just… explained..."

Everlight's confidence died down as she got to the sour point that would cause people to distrust her.

"I see." Davis nodded his head, descending into contemplation as he took a light breath.

He had been thinking how good it would be if Everlight would ever be able to match Nadia's prowess. However, his way of thinking was wrong.

Everlight's strengths lay in how she was a heaven-defying defense and support, while Nadia's strength lay in how she was a heaven-defying offense and support. One was a life bestower, while the other was a life stealer. The two of them couldn't be compared in the same length and had their own roles to fulfill in the cosmos.

He panned his head vertically to give a good look at Everlight before he nodded once again.

"Alright, use Bloodline Impelling Evolution: Regal on Mira and make her an Emperor-Tier Magical Beast."

"At once, master."

Everlight solemnly answered, turned around, and walked, her figure transforming back to a white-winged fox with azure stripes. As she neared Isabella, Mira also stepped out, transforming into a giant Earth-Dragon.

Her figure was massive, but it caused Everlight to not even bat an eye as she approached. If she wished so, she could just cleave Mira's Earth Dragon body with a single swing of her soft and fluffy fox tail. That was how powerful she was, and yet, she was supposed to be a life-bestowing fox.

Meanwhile, Mira was trembling, not out of fear but of expectation and hope. She could feel it. This fox was someone special and not bound by conventions of common sense, invoking the feelings of wanting to protect her. She opened her mouth, wanting to thank and hear some specifics, but a tiny figure walked past her, causing her huge eyes to blink while Everlight also stopped.

"I see you are way more useful than I thought, Everlight." Nadia hovered in the air in her tiny wolf form, her purplish-golden eyes narrowing, "You finally qualify yourself to be master's mate."

"Not as much as you, Empress Nadia. However, I'll get into that space eventually..."

Nadia's tone was regal and commanding, but Everlight didn't take a step back either, finally gazing as one with her Emperor-Tier standing.

The two of them gazed at each other, causing the brows of others to twitch. This was a rivalry they expected but also not expected to really happen as one was a wolf and the other was a wolf turned into a fox. Moreover, it was more intense than how they fought to attract Davis's attention.

Nadia didn't bother anymore and flew back to Davis, flying into his embrace as she rested in his arms comfortably. She licked her lips, having devoured the tasty Burning Phoenix Meat. However, she was also humble and left significant portions for Mira, Freya, and Katherine Hilltail.

The others praised her to death and gave her more head pats and caress that she was already feeling sleepy for the day, but after coming here, she was in for a surprise as she heard Everlight's ability, her eyes continuing to curiously watch each and every one of Everlight's movements.

Everlight had her eyes closed at this moment. The grass around her danced, the intensity starting to spread around the region. The wind picked up as her undulations surged. From a distance, even Starcy returned to see what was going on, only to be shocked at the scene she was witnessing, the landscape quivering as though it had a heartbeat.

Davis's eyes were wide in a stupor, but he had neared Everlight, witnessing her actions as he wanted to learn as much as possible while, on the other hand, everyone else retreated.

Everlight's wings flapped as she took the skies, her nine tails curving into a spherical structure before they blossomed into lotus petals. Abruptly, three of those petals shrank crazily before they disappeared like they never existed as it left six tails, causing Everlight's azure runes to light up into a holy glow. The next moment, she placed her paw on Mira's heart.

*Badump!~*

A huge echo caused a shockwave to spread. It was so loud and resonating that it caused Mingzhi and Fiora to close their ears in slight pain, but Evelynn protected everyone just in case as she unleashed her aura.

Veins erupted on Mira's beasts that were covered in earthen dragon armor before they started to swell a bit, revealing enlarged veins that became deep azure. It quickly spread to her entire body, causing her to appear as though thousands of azure centipedes were rampaging inside her body.

"Aoooo!!!~*

Mira threw her head and released a heaven-shaking roar in pain. Her golden eyes turned bloodshot, and her body began to undergo profound changes. Runes became undone from every single piece of her scale and throbbed, transforming anew in mid-air. Her dragon head, claws, wings, arms, and legs grew in size, reaching ten percent higher but still evolving without stopping.

*Booom!~*

An intrinsical change in her aura erupted as she stepped into the King-Tier, causing a windstorm to kick up.

It caused the distant Starcy to retreat in fear while Sophie was helpless. She was still protected under Evelynn's protective veil, unable to do anything.

Evelynn didn't stop protecting her sisters, as the changes in Mira didn't stop. The runes once again kept changing and imprinting themselves onto her huge scales, forcing her into new heights as she once again came to experience a change in her features.

Isabella pursed her lips as a worried look emerged on her face. Through her blood connection, she knew that Mira was in incredible pain. However, this process was one of tempering, causing her to be unable to help in any way.

*Aoooo!~*

Mira's beastly roars grew heavier and oppressive as time passed. Her undulations kept surging heavily like mountains were being pressed down on them repeatedly. It was like layers, and layers of mountainous pressure were superimposed on them.

Still, Davis and the others watched every single change occurring in Mira's body with a keen gaze. Her small scales became fully golden, losing the brownish hue. Instead, there was a crimson glow erupting out of the huge scales and also its two horns strutting from its forehead, seemingly capable of exploding at any time with an earth-flipping prowess.

The rugged and spiky mountain-like structure on her back, traversing over her spine, also grew crimson in color, although it still maintained brownish supremacy on the base of her back and shoulder.

*Booom!~*

A terrifying aura enveloped the region, causing the soothing atmosphere to be disrupted. However, the disturbance suddenly fell silent, and Mira lowered her giant dragon head, revealing her razor-sharp set of teeth that could grind an Early Immortal Grade Mountain to dust while her bloodshot eyes returned to normal as crimson-gold pupils gazed at them.

"Woah~ I'm alive..."

A mature yet childish voice came out of the terror-inducing mountainous dragon, causing Isabella's worried expression to twitch before her face adopted a bright smile.

"Welcome back, Empress Mira~"
