Chapter 1073 Undaunted Purple Lotus

Davis couldn't help but inwardly curse! It was not in anger towards his life being threatened, but to the outrage when he saw the Undaunted Purple Lotus Petal had been laced with poison. The poison should've ruined the medicinal efficacy of this ingredient!

It was not even visible to the naked eye or a few usual search methods. He felt that only a person with a Mature Soul Stage soul sense that bordered on the peak would be able to tell that the petal had been poisoned.

The poison's quality was quite high, and its grade was at the Peak-Level King Grade, capable of easily killing a junior like him; but that was if he were without the death-like energy or the life-like energy. With both mysterious powers from Fallen Heaven in his arsenal, the poison was unlikely to do anything significant to him.

However, he couldn't help but lament as his heart bled. It seemed that there were only one of the five petals from the Undaunted Purple Lotus that seemed to be gifted to him. He didn't know what kind of fate the other four petals met.

The Undaunted Purple Lotus has nine lower-tier petals, seven mid-tier petals, and five upper-tier petals. Each tier corresponds to the cultivation stages from the Fifth Stage to the Seventh Stage!

These petals could be directly consumed, obtaining an increase in soul comprehension towards heaven and earth. Still, it wouldn't provide much of an effect unless the complete Undaunted Purple Lotus were consumed. It could directly cause a person to enter the Supreme Soul Stage from the Peak-Level of Mature Soul Stage!

However, the effective use wasn't to directly consume but use it as a main ingredient in a pill concoction to produce a Low-Level Emperor Grade Pill whose value reaches High-Level Emperor Grade Pill! After all, the derived pill helps to grant a thirty percent chance of making a Peak-Level Supreme Soul Stage Cultivation enter the King Soul Stage!

The Eighth Stage of Soul Forging Cultivation!

In truth, the Undaunted Purple Lotus as a whole could be said to be a Low-Level Emperor Grade Ingredient!

He didn't know this from any records or hearsay but directly from a person's mouth. Naturally, he heard it directly from Old Man Garvin's, or accurately his soul body's mouth.

Old Man Garvin actually used the Undaunted Purple Lotus to concoct a pill, and therefore, advanced into the King Soul Stage, entering the ranks of Soul Kings!

It was just a small chat when he heard about the Undaunted Purple Lotus from Old Man Garvin, but till this date, he was very clear that he was not mistaken about what he had heard as it still remained in his mind as an impression.

Davis raised his chin and looked at Weiss Alstreim, who seemed to have realized that he was quite shaken. Davis was indeed shaken but not to the reason Weiss Alstreim probably thought he was shaken for...

However, even while Davis has his Heart Intent active, he could find no ill intentions from Weiss Alstreim. This left him baffled because he knew that this trash was not capable of hiding his hostility. He was the same unstable man as he could be in Davis's eyes.

"Do you know what this ingredient is and its effects?"

Weiss Alstreim's expression became a bit awkward, "I'm not clear, but I muse that it should be at least High-Level King Grade Ingredient..."

"Indeed, it's at least a High-Level King Grade Ingredient..."

Davis nodded his head in response.

Judging by a quick glance with his experience, he could safely say that someone set up Weiss Alstreim. But, if it were Weiss Alstreim who was truly behind the poisoning, then he had to applaud him for being able to be still proud of an irrelevant deed like shaking him up with a gift.

"Still, can I know how you obtained this Undaunted Purple Lotus Petal?" He decided to ask away.

"This..." Weiss Alstreim shook his head, "I cannot reveal the seller's name as the seller asked their identity to be confidential, keep things between us..."

"Is that so...?" Davis narrowed his brows, "A pity... I thought I might be able to obtain at least one more of these petals from that person..."

"Haha, I'm glad that Alchemist Davis is particularly concerned about gaining more... and I guess that decides who the bigger person is among us." Weiss Alstreim looked at Ravalat Alstreim as he sneered.

He didn't tarry any longer and returned to his seat, flying the same way above people's heads before being seated himself, his demeanor carefree and condescending.

Both Ravalat Alstreim and Kayan Alstreim looked at Weiss Alstreim in anger. They actually lost to this trash!

Was this the difference in the level of connections? After going so far, they ended up still losing to trash! This matter was a personal insult to them!

On the other hand, Davis descended into a short yet deep contemplation.

It was clear neither Weiss Alstreim nor the youths were aware of what the Undaunted Purple Lotus Petal meant, and they seemed to have never even heard about it before if it weren't for his list.

With Weiss Alstreim being carefree, he knew that it was practically confirmed through his Heart Intent that Weiss Alstreim was not hostile, at least for today. That left Davis with only but two people who seemed likely to gain from him killing Weiss Alstreim while he bore the brunt of it.

One, Immeth Alstreim, who appeared to be not present here today, and Elder Zeno Alstreim. These two were the most likely suspects he had in mind.

However, recognizing that Immeth Alstreim would in no way have a chance of procuring an Undaunted Purple Lotus, and considering that she tried to secure her future with him, all that suspicion he had ended up falling on Elder Zeno Alstreim.

However, Elder Zeno Alstreim also could not practically obtain the Undaunted Purple Lotus Petal either. If he did indeed obtain, then Davis knew that the underlying currents weren't simple as it seemed. After all, why would Elder Zeno Alstreim use such a resource to not increase his own cultivation but poison him to death instead?

It just did not make sense.

If it were not both of them, then there should be a third and unknown party still lurking around the Grand Alstreim City.

Nevertheless, he didn't truly know if the Undaunted Purple Lotus Petal in front of him was a genuine treasure or a fake treasure. He had never seen one after all or knew about its features, and Old Man Garvin didn't reveal to him how it looked either.

That's why when he wrote that Undaunted Purple Lotus in the list, he believed that it would be a fantasy for him to obtain it.

Weiss Alstreim appeared in front of him, magically in possession of the Undaunted Purple Lotus. He didn't possess the pill concoction method that creates a semi High-Level Emperor Grade Pill.

Hence, he involuntarily became stricken with joy, thinking that he could also use it on his wives. After all, it was redundant on him when he had Fallen heaven to increase his Soul Forging Cultivation.

Of course, if he obtained the complete Undaunted Purple Lotus, he was of the idea that he could consume the upper-tier petals to enhance his Supreme Soul Stage comprehension and use the less useful mid-tier and lower-tier petals on his wives. That would maximize the efficiency, but when it dawned on him that the only petal was poisoned, his hopes were shattered.

Even before he could confirm that it was the genuine Undaunted Purple Lotus Petal, his hopes were intensely shattered.

Nevertheless, he decided to not expose Weiss Alstreim for now.

A certain few knowledgeable people should monitor anything concerning the Undaunted Purple Lotus. Once they get their attention over it, they might promptly inform the powers who would not spare Eighth Stage Experts to fight for it.

After all, Old Man Garvin bragged that he snatched it from a few higher-grade powers who were fighting for it in secrecy!
