Divine Emperor of Death

Chapter 187 Loot

Roughly after an hour.

Jackson woke up finding himself still in the carriage. He looked around and heaved a sigh of relief for that but the hatred in his heart surged as he subconsciously shouted out, "Damn you old fart!"

The guards outside were useless, the butler had fainted and he didn't bring his protector from his family because he was going to meet Imryll.

He continued to curse in his mind till he found the sight of two imagery crystals.

'Is that what I think it is?' A faint hope and wishful thinking emerged on his mind as a thought but he didn't dare to keep pondering on it.

He quickly grabbed the imagery crystals and viewed it.

As soon as he found out that it was he thought, he turned jubilant.

He then continued to check and found no clues of that old fart in it.

Heaving a sigh of relief, he said, "Old fart, since you are not ruthless, I will leave this matter at hand, but if you dare provoke me again, don't think you're going to get lucky!"

Crack!

Tightening his grip, he broke the crystals until he confirmed that there were no other pieces of evidence left.

Then he took the letter that was below where the imagery crystals had been placed.

"You young one should consider yourself lucky that you've met a morally upright bandit. If it were any other bandit, I'm sure that they would have even sucked the wealth of your whole family. That said, as the old fart that you endear, I should leave some advice before leaving."

"No matter what, you young ones should consider three things… What to do? When to do? And where to do? If not, you'll meet people like me…"

Jackson had veins erupting on his forehead as he silently cursed, "You shameless old fart!"

……

By the time Jackson woke up, Davis had already given back the horse he had rented, plus, he returned to the inn without the disguise as if nothing happened.

If they followed his trail, they'll only be able to follow him to the horse he had rented, or the alley he had changed his disguise.

From there, it'll be challenging for them to locate him, and by the time they find the inn, he would've already left. That is if they've managed to find his trail surprisingly in the first place.

"Let's see what we have here…" Davis grinned while sitting on the bed.

He was now the embodiment of a child eager to open a gift box to check its content.

Davis injected his energy into the spatial ring. He had long formed a blood connection with it as Jackson voluntarily removed his mark before handing it over to him.

Davis was visibly surprised and could see why Jackson was a genius despite coming from an Earth Grade Family.

Looks like the thing he said about raiding the tomb of a Sixth Stage Expert wasn't entirely false.

The spatial ring had a storage space of 800 cubic metres and had a lot of stuff in it.

Davis could guess that this was a High-Level Sky Grade spatial ring by considering its internal storage.

Looking at the contents, he felt rich.

At one side of the space, he saw some thumb-sized transparent, colourless stones.

"Spirit Stones!" He exclaimed at the amount.

There were around 48 of it lying around in the space.

"So many… What else? I sensed a high-grade medicinal ingredient before, ah, there it is… Hmm? What herb is this?"

Davis pondered while looking at the green herb with white spots that were in a jade box. It gave off a very pure aroma that heightened his senses.

He couldn't find the name of this herb with his knowledge. Sighing gently, he thought to himself wryly, 'Looks like I have to increase my knowledge by reading books again…'

Like that, there were other ingredients of various grades which he couldn't identify. There were also some that he could identify but they were all of High-Level Earth Grade or less.

There were plenty of materials that could be useful to refine weapons as well but he wasn't sure about that since he was no blacksmith.

He then scanned a direction to find a table that was stacked with books. He spread his sense around and read the title of the books.

Alchemy Tier - 1, Alchemy Tier - 2, Alchemy Tier - 3 Basic, Alchemy Tier - 3 Advanced, Alchemy Tier - 4 Basic…

Blacksmith Tier - 1, Blacksmith Tier - 2, Blacksmith Tier - 3 Basic, Blacksmith Tier - 3 Advanced, Blacksmith Tier - 4 Basic, Blacksmith Tier - 4 Advanced, Blacksmith Tier - 5 Basic…

"Oh, was Jackson aiming to be an Alchemist and Blacksmith at the same time? Commendable indeed…" Davis casually commented and continued to read, "Oh, we have Cultivation Manuals here…"

Storm Piercing Sword Manual, Mid-Level Sky Grade, Energy Condensation Cultivation Manual.

Heart Mountain Manual, High-Level Sky Grade, Body Tempering Cultivation Manual.

Eclipse Soul Moulding Manual, Peak-Level Sky Grade, Soul Forging Cultivation Manual.

These three were the highest grade cultivation manuals he could find. The Heart Mountain Manual was stronger than his Tyrant Body Secrets but it was not worth changing his cultivation technique right now.

Storm Piercing Sword looked like a wind-lightning energy cultivation manual but when he skimmed it, he found it only to be a wind energy cultivation manual.

Finally, the Eclipse Soul Moulding Art.

Davis took it out and read it as he squeezed his forehead.

'What the hell is this?' Davis couldn't understand heads or tails of it.

His understanding of the soul was that shallow despite his Soul Forging Cultivation. Unless someone explained it to him, it would take a long time for him to decipher it.

That said, he was able to at least gather some information from it.

Like, he needed to get an Eclipse Soul Bug, a Magical Beast of Sky Grade to cultivate it.

"Tch, useless!" His mood turned for the worse but continued to view other cultivating manuals.

They were all good but didn't catch his eye. Suddenly he stopped and took a book out that was filled with shady inscriptions and drawings.
