Divine Emperor of Death

Chapter 4053  First Failure?

Of course, the karmic relationships of one person's karma weren't enough to fuel the Fickleweaver Karmic Lotus's desire, but it wasn't necessary for them to fully grow it as what they were trying to achieve was get a Fickleweaver Karmic Lotus that would work on Andiron alone as it would have his blood and became a bridge to the karmic link he would share between his original ancestors.

As a result, the flower seemed to be smaller and possessed fewer petals, some not even growing half its length. It would also seal his path for bloodline evolution into the karmic pathway, leaving only the immediate spatial pathway.

However, this flower was going to be returned to him. It would become the catalyst for him to become an Eclipsed Void Turtle with a powerful arsenal of karmic energy to use, which means invoking a karmic attribute variance.

Davis wondered if this plan would work as it seemed half-assed, but Myria was fairly sure about it, and he didn't find anything wrong other than the appearance of the grand flower being strained to this level. The fact that it blocked the bloodline evolution after absorbing the karma from the magical beast core meant that it certainly was capable of providing it back if digested and with such a huge concentration of karmic energy enough to undergo a variance.

In other words, it was such a fickle lotus playing with the fates of those it encountered; in this case, it plays with Andiron alone. Moreover, there was a special ingredient that made it a surefire way.

As time passed, Myria and Everlight joined in helping him grow the flower and heal Andiron, taking turns to keep their energies and exhaustion at normal levels.

It was the seventeenth day.

"Yo."

Andiron's face was wilted, and he looked like a dry sack. He raised his head and looked at a golden-white-haired man, making him blink. However, he didn't even have the strength to respond.

"Glad to see you're still alive."

The golden-white-haired man reached out his hands, waved them, and interweaved hand signs before he threw his palms straight at him. A layer of golden-white light enveloped Andiron, causing him to be stunned.

His lips lightly tugged to the side into a smile, "So you've succeeded… Fenren…"

"You're going to succeed too, so don't give up."

Fenren sent waves and waves of light energy filled with the radiance of life, causing Andiron to tear up before he smiled brightly. With four waves of life energy seeping into him, there was boundless life energy and karma radiating around him.

"Excellent…"

Davis commented as he saw Fenren. It seemed that he had recovered completely on his own after undergoing an evolution. The evolution didn't instantly heal Fenren, but he slowly recovered under the regenerative light of his own energy.

He slept for a few days before finally waking up and coming here.

"The purity of your life energy isn't much as the Nine Lives Gracious Fox, but it's certainly the second best I've seen among magical beasts."

"You think so?" Fenren chuckled

His eyes went wide as he raised a bellow, "Ah!"

Instantly, the luminosity of his light grew, and so did the radiance of the golden life energy that stemmed from it.

"This… this is almost on par with Everlight's now- no, it surpassed…?"

Myria was in shock as she saw the intensity of the purity increase along with luminosity. It was ridiculous.

"…" Everlight also raised her brows, but she didn't seem shaken.

However, Fenren's brows twitched as he seemed to be unable to keep up with this kind of luminosity. His King-Tier aura unstably fluctuated, appearing to exude his straining. It was clear he was forcing himself above his limit to keep up appearances, causing Myria to shake her head.

"It seems like the higher the luminosity, the higher the purity, but it also uses up a lot of energy at once, which is not suitable for healing others as it loses intensity upon being released from the body. On the other hand, Everlight is still a Saint Magical Beast and specializes in healing others. She would be unmatched if she became a Grand Saint Magical Beast."

"I know, I know. I was just flexing…" Fenren wryly laughed.

He knew he could not compare to the next evolution of a Nine Lives Gracious Fox when it comes to the purity of life energy. However, he didn't want to lose to a Saint Magical Beast's purity of life energy, even if it was something he practically worshiped before.

Now that he had become a Grand Saint Magical Beast, his worldview quickly expanded.

His life radiance was also just the dish he needed to swing his sword and not care about any injuries, making him full of expectations for the future.

Soon, Andiron's karmic flower bloomed, and his body also seemed to have gained some weight as his blood was restored to minimal levels.

At this moment, Davis made a movement. He plucked the flower, causing blood to spurt from the shoot. Andiron's blood was draining, leaving him shuddering, but Davis left it just like that, fed the flower to Andiron, and performed the evolution technique.

Andiron barely managed to consume it while dying, forcing his body to integrate with the flower's essence.

Not only did it carry his blood, but also an intense amount of karmic energy. He focused on connecting it with his core and body, invoking the variance. At the same time, he could feel another kind of energy but couldn't place a hand on it. It made his heart churn, practically force-starting the variance as he evolved.

Davis narrowed his eyes, "It's indeed a surefire way…"

Tia had implanted two percent of her soul essence into the seed of the Fickleweaver Karmic Lotus. It inevitably refined it into pure karmic energy and practically connected to the Daedalian Guardian Turtle in the legends. After all, her Karmic Guardian Physique's manifestation was said to be one of a Daedalian Guardian Turtle.

Still, Davis knew that just because there was a manifestation of the Daedalian Guardian Turtle didn't mean that it connected to some mythical turtle.

It wasn't even a solid connection, much less vague, but along with Andiron's own connection to his ancestors through the mysterious magical beast core, it was enough to kickstart a variant evolution in a lowly Saint Magical Beast!

Davis and the others retreated as they were tired, but Fenren remained, continuing to heal Andiron amidst his evolution.

A few minutes later, two giant figures stepped out, both their appearances and auras grand!
