Chapter 1262 - Leaving the Obscured Island

As the Silverwinds and Nero Alstreim watched Davis in a stupor, he already began contemplating over the Lightning Laws the Lightning Elemental bestowed him. The insights he was comprehending were extremely similar to the Blazing Thunderlight Kirin's Lightning but not the same.

Even then, it further aided his comprehension in Blazing Thunderlight Kirin's Lightning since the path was similar, but he felt that he couldn't make any massive improvements unless he had their blood essence. Even a drop would have helped him passively comprehend along with the circulation of Blazing Thunderlight Kirin's Firestorm World Ode, but he didn't have such a resource with him as the Immortal Inheritance was basically emptied out in the past by the original inheritor.

Nevertheless, as he kept passively circulating the Blazing Thunderlight Kirin's Firestorm World Ode's lightning path, within a few minutes, the heaven and earth energy around him began reverberating with intensity as the surrounding lightning energy all rushed towards him, forming a field of black and blue lightning that crackled with intensity.

A few seconds later, the crackling strands of lightning receded while Davis's eyes shot wide open as he took a deep breath, feeling rejuvenated by the still remnant lightning strands that ricocheted around him, making him look like a being made of lightning.

He had comprehended Level Six Intent of Lightning Laws!

"You found the Blazing Thunderlight Kirin's lightning delectable, didn't you?"

That mass of revolving core held lighting-attribute energy that Davis could use to feed it with the energy it needed to sustain itself.

"Not enough..." A female voice echoed, but her tone was still one of happiness.

'Haha, of course...'

Davis inwardly thought that his level was nowhere near it. If he wanted to increase its energy by feeding his own lightning, he needed to be at the High-Level or Peak-Level Law Sea Stage. Nevertheless... he baited it with his soul force. After all, his soul force was almost comparable to Peak-Level Eighth Stage!

When he comprehended the Blazing Thunderlight Kirin's lightning and flames, it just wasn't limited to his Essence Gathering Cultivation. He had comprehended it for Soul Forging Cultivation as well, the same way it had aided his Essence Gathering Cultivation's Law Intents.

When the comprehension clouds from nine Low-Level King Beast Stage Scorched-Crystal Crimson Ape combined in his soul sea to form an even more pure, untainted comprehension cloud, it appeared to have even more insights in it. The Blazing Thunderlight Kirin's Soul Essence was also similar in the sense that the laws it contained were a far cry from what these small comprehension clouds held that it caused him to even comprehend Lightning Laws in Body Tempering Cultivation, but it was just at the elementary level and something he can't use in fights due to his martial energy being overwhelmed by the Earth Dragon Immortal's earth-attributed energy.

Needless to say, he had also comprehended Elementary Fire Intent in Body Tempering Cultivation. However, it was still rendered useless other than for some mundane needs like lighting up a house in a fire or something.

Nonetheless, it was as expected of an Immortal's Soul Essence, but when he had refined it, it was already down to somewhere around Ninth Stage, not to mention that it might only be a small part of the immortal's soul essence.

Davis made new discoveries in these comprehension clouds, and he was looking forward to seeing what else he would find in these future refinement processes. He hoped that wasn't the end of it.

"I'll feed you with twenty percent of lightning attributed soul force each week or less. In exchange, you will take me as your Master, Eldia."

"What...? How...?" A sound of disbelief echoed inside him.

Davis smiled with a vague sense of control. He already saw the Lightning Elemental's name with his Death God Eyes.

"I just know that you are destined to grow along with me, Eldia. I will feed you, and you will, in turn, help me comprehend your Lightning Laws as you did so now. Do you accept these terms?"

Davis didn't hear anything from Eldia. The silence almost seemed solemn, as if she was revering him for knowing her name. She was already frightened by him once when he tried to release her through his death energy, so he felt that hit wouldn't be strange if she revered him now.

"Yes... Master..."

As if confirming his thoughts, Eldia echoed in acceptance.

Davis smiled as he finally relaxed. The moment she entered him and began bestowing him with insights, he knew that she had already accepted to become his, and perhaps the terms he had said was nothing more than a bonus for her.

However, Davis didn't just carelessly let her inside. The moment she entered his dantian, he had it surrounded with his King Soul Stage soul force, and since his soul force whirled within his body, no one other than the Lightning Elemental herself was able to detect it.

Perhaps, that was what made her have no second thoughts of being tamed by him.

Davis remained a bit skeptical if he could make her his, but it seemed like he was worried for nothing. He looked towards the others as a faint smile of superiority hung over his lips.

"Beauty Zanna, can you remove the restriction you placed on my Lightning Elemental."

"..."

The others still looked at him with disbelief.

"Hmph!"

Zanna Silverwind came out of her reverie before simply snorted and waved her hand, removing her species technique, Binding Corrosion Lightning from the Lightning Elemental, as her palm dazzlingly crackled with viridian lightning.

"Thank you, Master~" A grateful voice echoed from inside his dantian, causing Davis to nod in satisfaction at Zanna Silverwind.

"Thank you for staying true to your words, Mival Silverwind. This way, I can rest reassured that you three do not have sinister ulterior motives in accepting my deal."

"Haha..." Mival Silverwind laughed before he raised his fingers seriously advised. "Overcautiouness is sound, but too much of it leads to groundless suspicion."

Davis nodded his head, accepting it with a bit of agreement. After all, overcautiousness was what allowed him to get scot-free in most situations. If he had not thought of anything before acting like senseless warriors with brute strength, then he wouldn't be alive right now.

Nevertheless, it had cons. It did not allow him to be carefree in a sense, without a worry, as he always had to be worried about what might come for him in the future.

'Even the streak of luck I experienced seems like nothing more than a flag...'

Davis inwardly mused, but then, since the danger he felt had considerably lessened, he did not mind it that much.

As Mival Silverwind said, being 'overly' overcautious was never good.

"Well then..." Alia Silverwind wryly smiled, "Can I take it you reached the King Soul Stage?"

"King Soul Stage!?" Nero Alstreim's eyes almost popped as he looked at the Silverwinds', and looking at none of them be surprised but still have amazement on their eyes, he became flabbergasted before slowly turning to look at Davis with the same disbelief he had a while ago.

"I did..." Davis didn't hide as he shook his head, "I'd appreciate it if you don't tell this to anyone. Perhaps, this will also be a way for me to test if you are all that you assume to be..."

"Well, this man looks like he never knew it before. Should we kill him?" Mival Silverwind gestured at Nero Alstreim with an excited smile.

It was just as he thought! Davis was really blessed by the heavens to have made this kind of breakthrough at a young age. This should only be possible if he had obtained an Immortal Inheritance or something of similar stature like a heavenly resource.

Nero Alstreim instantly came out of his reverie and jumped back as his body trembled a bit, nervous that they would really attack. If so, he didn't stand a chance. He gritted his teeth in frustration, thinking that he hadn't even seen his daughter Nora Alstreim yet. At least, he didn't want to die before that.

"No, Nero is rather important to me. As long as he doesn't do anything stupid, I'll protect him like my own family." Davis chuckled as he shook his head.

However, his words were like an explosion to Nero Alstreim that he couldn't help but look at Davis in disbelief again, but this time, a complex feeling emerged in his heart. Simultaneously, he couldn't help but ask himself.

'Am I being too overcautious...?'

His face fell before he shook his head, thinking that he would know everything once he reached the Alstreim Family. He raised his head with resolve and spoke.

"Davis, I want to see my daughter soon..."

That was the only single wish that enveloped his heart right now.

Davis nodded before he looked towards Mival Silverwind, "We're leaving... Do you all want to come with us after we exit this space or later?"

"Haha, of course. We'll come with you all the way to the Alstreim Family. I hope you can convince whoever you need to let us become secret protectors." Mival Silverwind began to fly.

"You three don't need to worry about that as I've already taken some measures long ago. Now, all we need is a single or a few sessions of negotiations."

"Good! You're extremely capable!" Mival Silverwind couldn't help but nod his head again and again before he left towards the palace to put it back into his spatial ring.

"Eldia, I want you to show us the way out." Davis communicated with the Lightning Elemental.

"Yes, Master..."

A streak of black lightning shot out of Davis, radiating a powerful High-Level Eighth Stage energy as she began to move away from the Lightning Sea.

Davis looked at Nero Alstreim as he mounted on Nadia, "What are you waiting for? Let's go. Only my Lightning Elemental knows the way out, and the way in as space here is mostly distorted."

"Ah..." Nero Alstreim reacted.

No wonder he had never seen this place before. He didn't even know that he was on an island somewhere in the Hundred Devil Thunder Archipelago's central region.

In a few moments, they all began to follow Eldia out of this island.
