The martial energy that gathered at the tip of his fingers moved towards him shoulders before it covered his upper torso.

Davis imagined a certain design of armor within his mind and with a thought, he made the martial energy manifest into that armor.

Black armor manifested with sharp patterns that extended outwards from his shoulders along with the shoulder plate.

He took a look at that armor and nodded his head in appreciation, and even knocked it as a dull sound echoed. He did the knock by using his index finger while using at least 50 percent of his power.

Seeing that the black armor didn't break to his tap, he smiled in content because that one tap could literally send a normal Peak-Level Gold Stage Cultivator flying towards the skies.

He could very well guess the power behind that tap as he was the one who employed it in the first place.

Not only did his bone marrow increase in hardness, his skin, flesh, organs, but bones all also experienced a qualitative breakthrough as well.

'My lifespan increased to 5,000 years...' Davis inwardly mused as a smile lit up his face.

Previously, his lifespan had hit the threshold of 1,000 years after he had entered the Gold Stage but now, he could live up to 5,000 years even if he stayed in this cultivation base for his entire lifetime.

Furthermore, even if he were to reach the age of 4,999, he would still look like his adult self and not age to an old appearance unless he messed up his current cultivation or received critical injuries from a battle.

Though his lifespan is just about 800 years from his Essence Gathering Cultivation, it was just one of his cultivation systems, supporting his lifespan.

In a cultivator's case, whichever cultivation system provided the highest lifespan becomes dominant in that cultivator's life.

But unlike Body Tempering Cultivation, Essence Gathering Cultivation did not provide the fires of vitality which would make the cultivator naturally appear youthful.

Of course, using various techniques, Essence Gathering Cultivators could still appear young but that was not natural as Body Tempering Cultivators.

Other than this matter about lifespan, he sensed that his comprehension of Earth Laws has increased to a great degree.

"Level Three Intent..." Davis spoke as his eyes gleamed.

He stayed in the Peak-Level of Gold Stage for about 3 years and managed to comprehend Level Two Intent during that time even without actively pondering on the laws.

This was due to the fact that he possessed and digested the Blood Essence of the Earth Dragon Immortal.

The blood essence had been an immense boon towards his cultivation that it had more passively helped him comprehend Level Three Intent upon his breakthrough into the Martial Ascension Stage.

Davis laughed in satisfaction as he felt that he was making stable progress in all the cultivation systems.

Low-Level Law Seed Stage, Low-Level Martial Ascension Stage, and Low-Level Mature Soul Stage.

Closing his eyes, he stabilized his Martial Ascension Stage Cultivation by circulating Domineering Earth Dragon Arts.

The Domineering Earth Dragon Arts he cultivated was at the Emperor Peak-Level Emperor Grade, so he could use it to enter the Ninth Stage eventually but the only bottleneck he would eventually face was also at the Ninth Stage.

Two drops of Earth Dragon Immortal's Blood Essence weren't simply enough. Maybe if he had ten drops, he guessed that he wouldn't have any bottlenecks even in the Ninth Stage of Body Tempering Cultivation.

After an hour, he found that his Body Tempering Cultivation had stabilized enough.

Standing up as he floated, Davis moved towards the exit and officially ended his closed-door cultivation.

======

Davis opened the door to his room and entered it. He didn't need to knock since the person inside could be considered his other half, neither did his other half would be offended by this rude action of his.

'She's not here?' Davis mused but then instantly heard the faint sound of flowing water with his senses.

His expression turned a little volatile while his fists clenched into two balls.

He had just experienced a breakthrough in Body Tempering Cultivation, so it could be also said that his vitality was renewed and raging wild in his body.

...He wanted to vent the overflowing vitality in his body and what other best way is there other than doing the deed.

With light steps, he floated into the air and entered the bath whereupon he saw Evelynn at the right side of the bath.

The bath was as big as the room, with a pond bed in the middle used for relaxing while soaking in the hot water filled with heaven and earth energy.

Evelynn lay in a white-colored wooden bathtub as she reclined her lithe body. She was entirely naked but her proportion below her neck was swallowed by the base water in the bathtub, leaving only her head visible in his view.

Davis removed his dress and it silently fell on the floor. He floated towards her and saw her relaxing with her eyes closed but not completely. It was as if she was enjoying the feeling of being surrounded by warm water.

He breathed in the fragrance that emanated from her, causing his heart to beat rapidly.

Evelynn's dark green hair fell out of the bathtub. She suddenly felt a hand interlocking her hair. Her heart leaped out of her throat as she instantly struck back with her hands only to be grasped.

"It's you." Evelynn visibly heaved a sigh of relief as she saw her husband's face.

Without a word of reply, his hand that glided through her hair held her head as he leaned forward to taste her lips, not allowing her to escape his grasp.

"Mmm!~"

Evelynn felt constricted, not able to move from the blood that rushed to her head, reddening her cheeks while making her feel lighthearted. The kiss initiated by him felt strange and left her gasping for breath.

She felt it was as if he was starving for her.

As Evelynn was made to turn her head behind, her breasts were visibly peaking out, and through the corner of her eyes, she saw his hardness raging for her.

She instantly knew that he wasn't here for a bath but to ravage her.

Suddenly, she was lifted up by both of his hands in a princess carry. The water that soaked her body quickly fell on the bathtub while her skin lustrously shone as it reflected the light.

She held his neck while still exchanging their passion for each other through their lips. However, she could also feel that Davis was moving towards the pool bed.

"Ahh!~"

Her eyes suddenly widened as she let out a yelp.

*Splash!~*

Davis threw Evelynn at the pool and saw her rising up from the surface of the water while flicking her green hair, looking at him with a grievance, however, he also saw the playful light in her eyes which made it seem extremely amorous.

He lifted up his leg and took a step forward, his right leg coming in contact with the warm water in the pond. Soon, his entire body sank, leaving only his head visible.

Evelynn looked at his visible approach as the water gently flowed away from him. She could see the lust in his eyes, waiting to pleasure her. She languidly smiled and waited for him to near.

In the middle of the pool, he reached out his hand and held her head, kissing her with passion again. His other hand reached for her perky breasts, wanting to fondle.

"Mmph!~"

Evelynn gave a muffled moan as her eyelashed gently trembled. She no longer tried to balance her body as she was pulled towards him by his embrace.

Their chests stuck together as she held his neck. Even in the warm water, they could feel each other's warmth,

Suddenly, she felt it.

'He entered me...' Evelynn bit her lips and slightly leaned back.

Davis shook his hips as he held her waists, wanting to thrust. He maintained eye contact with her while watching her pleasurable reactions.

"Ahn!~"

However, his gaze quickly changed into one of lust as he thrust into her, feeling her wall clamping on his hardness as it glided towards her womb.

Water sloshed as they pounded at each other's thighs, the water gradually exiting the pool's upper surface from their clash.
