Divine Emperor of Death

Chapter 4517: Overwhelming Will Of A Dragon

Celestia thought before answering, "Its usage of Mandate Laws could not compare to the aunt’s Transcendent Truth Eyes, but it was still powerful enough to have its way with nearly every lifeform below it. I can see why he would be conceited beyond compare."

"Indeed, the quality of its Mandate Laws could not compare to the Transcendent Truth Eyes. That’s because the Transcendent Truth Eyes utilizes the heaven’s mandate, the highest form of mandate to ever exist, while the Five-Clawed Imperial Dragon is likely using its own draconic Will to impose its command onto others. The specialty of the dragon race is its overbearing Will that forces every other magical beast to obey its command, so it is the second most terrifying Will of all."

"Kill yourself, human!"

Abruptly, the Five-Clawed Imperial Dragon reappeared in the distance, its big, azure eyes bloodshot as it unleashed its species technique.

A terrifying force descended from the world, gathering at the hem of its three horns before it shaped into an extremely huge rune that had two characters from the Sky Word Language inscribed on it.

[Dragon Mandate]

"Not good!" Ralaza Heavenshade yelled out, "The Five-Clawed Imperial Dragon’s species technique can even cause the Will of a lifeform that’s a minor stage above to break and listen to its bidding. It’s King-Tier, so it’s bound to be even more powerful!"

As her words fell, the runic might in the air appeared before Davis like it had teleported.

"Shut the fuck up."

Abruptly, the heaven and earth energy around Davis that resisted him obediently turned into his ally, controlled by the usage of Enigmatic Heart Laws and Life Laws. At the same time, the terrifying Will he had never bothered to use because it was overly disrespectful to his people was awakened like an even more powerful dragon that had awakened from a long slumber.

*Crack!~*

The terrifying Five-Clawed Imperial Dragon rune that was in front of him cracked like porcelain and instantly shattered, causing the dragon to spurt a tsunami of blood from its mouth while it fell from the skies. The backlash was just as terrifying as the species technique.

Its eyes went dull, appearing to have been knocked out.

Ralaza Heavenshade took three steps back and fell on her butt, her heart stricken with fear as she was also affected by the terrifying Will of the Divine Emperor of Death.

"I probably cannot compare to a True Dragon’s Will yet, but a King-Tier Five-Clawed Golden Dragon can fuck off."

Davis said, his expression irritated. He took a deep breath to calm himself down. Because the mandate tugged on his own dignity and pride and tried to crush it, the terrifying Will he kept suppressed and controlled had awakened once again. He didn’t think this was possible.

He didn’t need this otherworldly Will to defeat the Five-Clawed Imperial Dragon’s Will. It seemed like if he was deeply offended in a battle of Wills, then it would awaken again.

"Father, you can also use Mandate Laws...?" Celestia’s pupils quivered.

Eterna and Lucian were also flabbergasted, never having seen this side of their father.

The explosive aura of that otherworldly Will had also shaken them out of their core, their expressions full of disbelief. Just what more was their father hiding?

"I’m not sure..." Davis rubbed his forehead while he had his eyes closed, trying to suppress that otherworldly Will, "But the combination of imposing my Will using Enigmatic Heart Laws’ Level Two Obscure Intent can count as such."

"..."

After a few seconds, Davis turned to look back at his children, "Sorry about the bad language. Now it’s okay."

He smiled wryly, appearing embarrassed, "In any case, the Five-Clawed Imperial Dragon is now subdued. Celestia, do you want to absorb its blood essence?"

"...!"

Celestia’s heart shook.

Ralaza Heavenshade and her group also felt a tremor in their hearts.

The blood of a Five-Clawed Imperial Dragon... who wouldn’t want that? Even if they had no use for it, who wouldn’t want that!?

"But father, we’ll end up offending two Exalt Five-Clawed Imperial Dragons." Celestia didn’t immediately accept.

She raised the disadvantages of the situation, causing Davis to chuckle. He was so thankful that his Celestia was level-headed, but he also wanted her to be much more willful like her elder sister, Eterna.

"What’s there to worry? It’s not like they could appear in the Celestial Transcendent Greater Realm to get to our galaxy’s Lower Realms. They wouldn’t even survive even if they had a pathway to our Upper Realms, since the human race is at war with the True Dragon Galaxy. They would get slaughtered because they would be war targets."

"That’s if we stayed in the Celestial Transcendent Galaxy." Celestia argued, "Are we not moving to another galaxy?"

"We’ll have to see about that, but first, do not hesitate to increase your own power when the consequences are less or would come far off in the future. It’s a good trade-off as long as you can increase your strength to the enemy’s level before they appear to take revenge."

Davis advised, continuing, "Also remember, perception is the most important factor in a battle. Because that stupid dragon wasn’t able to see the difference between our powers, it got easily defeated. Because it was unable to assess the weight of my Will, its Will had endured a terrifying backlash. If your opponent is too powerful, flee. There’s no shame in that. Except Lucian, you two would be hard-pressed to deal with that Five-Clawed Imperial Dragon even if you used your blood and soul essence, so what should you do?"

"Run."

Eterna and Celestia answered obediently. Right now, even Eterna looked highly obedient as she was spooked.

Ralaza Heavenshade was flabbergasted. What was he teaching his kids? To flee?

That was so not dragon-like.

Davis nodded, "Good. Preserving your life is the most important thing in adventures and expeditions. Now, Celestia, what do you need to do?"

Celestia took a deep breath, "Increase my strength- consume the Five-Clawed Imperial Dragon’s blood essence."
