Davis wanted to find out why the change in Weiss Alstreim's lifespan abruptly happened, and he had some clues to pertain the accurate reason.

One, when Edgar Alstreim issued the life and death battle.

Two, when Weiss Alstreim accepted the life and death challenge.

Three, it was when he told his mother not to interfere with their life and death dispute.

Four, it was when he convinced his mother in the flying boat to let Edgar Alstreim take revenge by himself.

And lastly, it was when Weiss Alstreim foolishly arrived at the No Same Sky Martial Platform and sealed his own fate instead of escaping.

These five points were the actual points of divergence he could think of that has a major factor in changing Weiss Alstreim's lifespan, and he was most suspicious of the fourth reason since the change in someone's fate most of the time was due to himself.

Perhaps, if he didn't convince Claire to let Edgar Alstreim participate in the life and death battle, she would've easily stopped it by throwing their disguise away, willingly choosing to reveal herself and fight with her enemies by going all-out instead. After all, if her father ended up dying, the whole point of taking revenge in disguise became redundant.

*Boom!~*

Crimson flames danced, and earthen might clashed again!

Edgar Alstreim looked at the sight in front of him as he saw Weiss Alstreim retreat again. He could've sworn that he had the chance to intercept him from the side, but looking at him cautiously escape even before he took a step forward to attack during this exchange, he uproariously laughed.

"Hahahaha! Coward! Time and time again, you have run away from a challenge and instead brought help to deal with the problem like a bully!"

"Even now, are you proving that you're undoubtedly a trash!?"

Weiss Alstreim maintained his distance from Edgar Alstreim, but he abruptly stopped as his expression turned ugly. He knew that he was being provoked a second time, but he was unable to stop himself!

"You've asked for it!"

"Earth Smiting Searing Flame Step!"

With a rageful bellow, Weiss Alstreim disappeared from the place he floated as searing flames illuminated his pathway. His speed abruptly became tremendous, capable of matching Edgar Alstreim's sudden rush speed in close combat.

Edgar Alstreim grinned. He took a step forwards as his martial energy flared again!

'Evasive Trembling Earth Step!'

Using the movement art specialized for the earth-attributed cultivation manual he trained in, Edgar Alstreim quickly disappeared from the place he stood.

They both appeared near as their fists erupted in flames and the might of the earth before they clashed!

*Boom!~*

"Wha!? Ahh!~"

Their fists didn't even clash, but their powers exploded right between them, causing Weiss Alstreim to be sent flying into the distance.

Edgar Alstreim didn't lose this chance as he quickly contacted up with the Evasive Trembling Earth Step. He evaded the flames that engulfed the area from the explosion and quickly went after Weiss Alstreim.

Weiss Alstreim spat a mouthful of blood in mid-air before he flipped and regained his balance back. He wiped his lips with his wrist sleeve before his purple eyes dilated as he suddenly saw that Edgar Alstreim was right on his tail!

Edgar Alstreim somehow wasn't blown away by the explosion, but a moment later, it was obvious to him that it was because of Edgar Alstreim's body's endurance and sturdiness to absorb impact due to the Martial Master Stage Body Tempering Cultivation!

Weiss Alstreim's expression shook, but his face became ruthless before he waved his sleeves.

"Die!"

Two objects simultaneously flew out his grasp, heading right towards Edgar Alstreim!

Edgar Alstreim's expression fell as he stopped and quickly retreated. His martial energy flared up from within his middle dantian, surging with tremendous power and intensity from his body to the outside world through his palms.

A yellowish-brown barrier suddenly appeared in front of him as it became a curve. It didn't stop with that, but numerous layers simultaneously appeared with each meter he retreated....

But before he could even cross five meters, the two objects or rather, the talismans that were thrown at him clashed with the first barrier and shook!

*Rumble!~*

It trembled with a bright crimson glow before both the talismans simultaneously exploded!

*Boom!~*

Instantly, almost half the No Same Sky Martial Platform was enshrouded with a crimson light that stemmed from crimson flames suddenly bursting apart from the two talismans.

"Explosive Flamewind Talismans!?"

"And Peak-Level King Grade ones at that!!!"

The crowd became astonished at the sight of the overwhelming heat explosion. Some even became unable to bear the heat as they retreated.

Edgar Alstreim had his eyes narrowed, and his body was stiff with abrupt tension as he retreated. However...

*Clack!~*

The force of the soaring flames neared the last barrier, and it merely crumbled away into an ash-like substance before it disappeared in the engulfing flames.

Edgar Alstreim knew that he was done at this moment, but...

Illuminating light suddenly shone from his body as it enshrouded him. The apocalyptic crimson flames that were about to reach him suddenly turned hazy before it turned into mist upon contact with the illuminating light.

Edgar Alstreim didn't seem surprised, but he instead surprisingly rushed off into the sea of crimson flames himself!

If one were to see his current movements that were done without any hesitations, they would think that perhaps he might've been exactly waiting for this!

Elder Havle Alstreim smirked. He wasn't able to see what occurred, but he could guess what had happened.

Knowing that Edgar Alstreim was going to participate in a life and death battle, he had prepared a Peak-Level King Grade Protective Artifact for him in the form of a necklace that hid behind one's robes.

Unless bombarded by a life-threatening attack, it wouldn't activate!

If he couldn't even equip his son-in-law with a protective artifact of that grade and level when he had already equipped his daughter with a Low-Level Emperor Grade Protective Artifact, then he wouldn't be a worthy father-in-law.

However, looking at his worried daughter and granddaughter, his expression fell.

"Nothing would happen! Edgar is still safe!" He consoled and explained.

"Dear!!!" Lia Alstreim still couldn't help but shed tears.

Weiss Alstreim possessed a smug expression on his face as he retreated towards the distance. The talismans didn't know to differentiate, so he knew that he had to escape. Otherwise, he would be engulfed along with Edgar Alstreim in the crimson flames.

"Heh! You don't even have a corpse anymore, and you just nothing but yourself to blame!" He coldly laughed as he turned to look at Lia Alstreim, "You're next!"

However, his eyes suddenly went wide as he caught sight of a flaming silhouette that emerged from the crimson flames. The flames from the silhouette receded and what emerged was the glowing figure of his natural enemy!

"Edgar!!!" Weiss Alstreim's expression shook before he uttered in fright, "World-Ending Fire Domain!"

"World-Ending my ass!" Edgar Alstreim arrived in front of Weiss Alstreim and unleashed a fish that contained his immense might!

The illumination of the protective treasure disappeared and what reached out was his fist, churning with martial energy towards Weiss Alstreim with a terrifying speed, but before it could completely reach him, he struck the half-transparent crimson domain before it could even completely take form!

*Crack!~*

The World-Ending Fire Domain wasn't even able to stretch a meter before it was shattered!
