Chapter 1671 - Twelve Vile Vortices

Davis arrived at an underground cave in the Indus Valley. After using spirit stones and activating the spatial tunnel, he appeared in another underground cave, looking at the clean and narrow space.

He made his way out and directly flew out of the hole from the surface, but it was nothing more than solid ground when he looked down.

'So mysterious...'

Davis remembered the location as he looked around. His soul sense spread out in a concealed manner, managing to see the brilliant and verdant scenery filled with magical beasts playing, hunting, and doing all kinds of things.

He conveniently censored some things and nodded.

'So this is the eastern magical beast territories that Clara spoke of...'

He listened to their conversations for some time, and a crimson-winged tiger beast, a Peak-Level King Beast Stage Magical Beast, utter that he was the ruler of this particular mountain range, swearing his allegiance to the Scarlet Tyrant Hawk Abode above.

When Davis heard that, he recalled the Fifty-Two Territories Map and saw that the Scarlet Tyrant Hawk Abode Territory was directly opposite to the Towering Cloud Hall Territory in placement. If the Towering Cloud Hall is the center of the Nine Western Territories, then the Scarlet Tyrant Hawk Abode was the center of the Eastern Magical Beast Territories.

He raised his head and looked at a massive floating island that made his jaw drop.

'What in the heavens...'

Davis had never seen a floating island, but there was one here, blotting out the light in some other direction because the sun was not directly above him at the moment.

He didn't know that the Heaven Gazing Sect, Vast Sky Emperor Palace, was also situated on a floating island. He hadn't absorbed those kinds of miscellaneous information yet and abandoned digesting them to look for a way to survive, after all.

Nevertheless, looking at the floating island that stretched about a hundred thousand kilometers at the altitude of four hundred kilometers, he felt like he had to know how it was floating but knowing that he would get into trouble in these magical beast territories where humans were simply slaves or food, he went back to the spatial tunnel and appeared in the Indus Valley.

When he appeared outside the underground, he was already met with a plethora of helicopters zooming his way.

Clearly, he could see that these people wanted to talk with him. However, he took a step forward and disappeared from their eyes.

On a particular helicopter, General Yuan Kong pursed his lips as he turned to look at Old Priest and Old Monk, his expression appearing exhausted before he let out a deep sigh.

"We're not even being attacked. The Loret Crown Prince simply does not want our presence."

"Perhaps," The Old Priest nodded his head, "We can only near such a superior being when we are allowed to meet him. There's no need to worry."

"Still," Old Monk rubbed his bald head as he smirked, "That young angel going around these vile vortices while lastly tagging along with that red-haired goddess. What is going on in these vile vortices for them to act like this?"

"Who knows? We better not ask or court death."

General Yuan Kong shrugged.

While the earthlings were trying to contact Davis, Davis arrived at the Bermuda Triangle, where he found an island again and activated the spatial tunnel, appearing in an area covered by limitless grey fog.

'Wait a minute...'

He felt some familiarity with this place and quickly extended his soul sense, only to see that wicked path cultivators from the Blood Pledge Villa and Three-Eyed White Serpents were battling blood and poison mixed with the illusion arts blazing as they wrecked many places thousands of kilometers away.

'Damn, this is the Twilight Shade Valley Territory...?'

He contemplated for a while before moving on, returning to Earth before reaching the Algerian Megaliths, another one of the twelve Vile Vortices before he went ahead and activated the spatial tunnel.

*Bzzz!~*

When he arrived at the other side and flew out, the world was full of hot flames, stretching to the end while the surface was covered with lava.

'Is this hell...?'

Davis blinked as his soul sense discovered the surrounding hundreds of kilometers like this. However, he spotted a plethora of fire spirits acting like humans as they run a civilization, having families and a palace over their heads, disputing over lands, quite the same as he saw in the Scarlet Tyrant Hawk Abode Territory.

He became dumbfounded to witness the intelligence in their eyes, making them totally different.

However, recalling a few lines from the records of heavenly tribulation from Soul Palace, he understood.

[When an essence or an elemental birthed from the energy of the heaven and earth reach the Peak-Level Emperor Grade and wants to break through to the Immortal Grade, they have two choices bestowed by the heavens. One, to continue their path as a Spirit Attribute Source of heaven and earth or become a new spirit race as they adopt a humanoid or beast appearance and start from the very beginning as a Spiritual Mortal, allowing them to possess all two energies, essence, and soul, instead of just essence.]

Davis knew that a Spirit Attribute Source's Will is their soul. However, they could not use their souls as a form of energy. Instead, their energy bodies, which are full of essence, are used to attack and defend. Therefore, they only possessed a single type of energy, essence energy.

However, becoming a new spirit race means that they get to possess soul energy, which is a tremendous boon, and once they reach immortality, they could apparently come to possess fleshly or body energy, having all three energies like humans!

But... starting from the beginning means resolving themselves to vulnerabilities and risks, which could be understood, considering the boon they received in return.

'Could it be that Eldia and other Spirit Attribute Sources my wives possess are going to make choices between the two when they encounter their own tribulations...?'

Davis didn't know what to think. For his Eldia, he wanted the best, which is obviously having three types of energies instead of one, but that meant that she would have to start from the beginning, the First Stage of the Spirit Race, the Spiritual Mortal Stage.

'Right, I'll think about it when the time comes, perhaps leave it for Eldia to choose between the two...'

He didn't bother with the fire spirit people anymore and left this strange land through the spatial tunnel.

Like this, he explored the remaining vile vortices and ended up somewhere in the Fifty-Two Territories.

The Hamakulia Volcano, near Hawaii, led to the Blooming Passion Abode Territory.

At this time, he still had not met the Yang Hellflame Emperor and the number one beauty, Fiendish Yin Emperor, and didn't know that they were actually heading towards him as the wicked path powerhouses congregated together.

He ignorantly returned to Earth and entered the South Atlantic Anomaly's spatial tunnel, which led to another unknown Territory where the flora was incredibly dense, stretching thousands of kilometers as if it was a plant world. Here, he saw wood spirits, strong ones, who almost detected him if he wasn't careful enough to hide his presence with concealment because he instinctively perceived their ability to sense things in this region through the help of the surrounding vegetation as terrifying.

Clearly, he knew this Territory was within the Sealed Lands of the Spirits, including the one that the Algerian Megaliths led to.

The Zimbabwe Goldmine led to the Pill Refining Sect Territory, which was the southwestern most Territory, below the Weapon Refining Villa, which he already killed and taken over by some other power which was said to be a branch of the Pill Refining Sect.

Their names were common, and they seemed to act like they were humble. Nevertheless, with the Emperor Sword Sect and Jade Lotus Valley to their east, protecting the Pill Refining Sect from the forces of the wicked path, they shared a symbiotic connection with these two powers, providing them with pills.

'If I recall correctly, wasn't the Jade Lotus Valley said to be a power hidden within a giant lotus that stretches hundreds of kilometers that blocks even peak-level attacks like it was nothing?'

Because of this reason, the Jade Lotus Valley was eternally preserved, maintaining a classical status as the Four Great Righteous Sects, Burning Phoenix Ridge, and the Soul Palace.

Davis also remembered that they were an all-female sect, having a deep-knit relationship with the Emperor Sword Sect in terms of alliance through marriage. Old Man Garvin also had a concubine from this sect, if he recalled correctly, although he knew that such a person should already be dead, perhaps killed.

After thinking that he had to get revenge for Old Man Garvin, he returned and entered the Wharton Basin's spatial tunnel, which actually led to the decimated Poison Lord Villa Territory.

'What the...'

Davis sensed some parts of the region ravaged by his first wife's poison. There was an extensive force of sinister aura as if vengeful souls were roaming around, which he perceived as poisonous yin energy.

'Her tremendous prowess almost created a Territory-Wide plague that was going to last for centuries if she hadn't removed her poisonous energy along the way of her quest for vengeance out of the last bit of kindness in her heart...'

Although Evelynn was kind no, merciful enough to not leave a massive poisonous plague behind, he couldn't help but shiver at the state of the corpses, no, the millions of gooey remains of this barren Territory.

Still, he didn't blame Evelynn one bit and returned to Earth again.
