The wretched heaven's will had probably fated for you to die...' Davis inwardly mused before he returned the smile as he asked.

"No problem, for we have a deal. You'll give me this viridian fruit with lightning patterns along with the Lightning Elemental as you've said, right?"

So far, it was good that he hoped that they wouldn't mess it up now, for he would be left with no choice but to retaliate.

"Yes, you have my word and theirs too..." Alia turned to look at Mival have an unamused look.

She went to him and held his hand, "What? It's been so long since we spoke with fellow humans... And this child seems to treat magical beasts kindly with an unbiased outlook. Otherwise, would a King-Tier Magical Beast really look like that...?"

Mival followed with his eyes to where Alia pointed and saw that the Dark-Winged Twilight Wolf still looked at them wariness. Its muscles were taut with the readiness that he couldn't help but think that the wolf was up to something, but her gaze was also locked with Zanna.

He could see the wolf was unwilling to step back despite being way lower in terms of cultivation base while not stop worrying about the human below as she glanced in a few intervals. A King-Tier's pride wouldn't allow it to retreat unless it feels a life-threatening danger, but why was there a need to worry about the human?

"See? How can a human who can garner this much of a reaction from a magical beast, especially a King-Tier Magical Beast be bad?" Alia shook his hand.

Mival sighed, "They can still be cunning, but perhaps, you are right this time."

Davis's lips twitched as he saw them talk without hiding anything. It was unnerving to still see them treat him as a child when he had already shown such wits, but he understood that unless he displays his prowess, they are going to mistake him for a calf that knows no fear and an adopted cub protected by a tigress.

In any case, he was satisfied with the status quo for now.

"Alright, anyone mind explaining what this viridian fruit is...?" He asked.

Mival pursed his lips before he looked above, "Zanna, stop staring at the Dark-Winged Twilight Wolf and come here. We've already established a deal with them, so don't go ruining it from our front."

While Alia retreated into the distance, her undulations flared like a tide, causing Davis's mouth to slightly open in shock. She was seemingly at the Peak-Level of Law Sea Stage, Peak-Level Martial Master Stage, and Low-Level Supreme Soul Stage. But considering that she lived for over thirteen thousand years and possessed experience from three lifetimes, he felt that it made sense.

Although she accepted her talent to be modest, she was now undoubtedly a prodigy with her experience of three lifetimes at her current level if their conversation was true. She was a qualified tri-cultivator.

Davis couldn't imagine how far she might have increased her law intents in all three cultivation systems, but he felt that it shouldn't be anywhere near Ancestor Dian Alstreim's Essence Gathering Cultivation's Law Intents.

Otherwise, she might've already stepped into the Law Rune Stage and then expanded her lifespan with her own strength. Surely, obtaining a Peak-Level Spirit Stone Vein Fragments that supports one's breakthrough to the Law Rune Stage should be easier to obtain than obtaining the rare nectar.

He felt that his thinking was correct as his mouth further went agape as he saw her wrinkles disappear, making her return back to her middle-aged countenance as she began to appear as a beautiful and mature woman he saw back in the flying boat when he first followed them.

"She burned a few of her last drops of vitality to support her breakthrough as she couldn't afford to fail because of her weak state at this moment." Mival suddenly spoke, "Likely, she chose to trust in you and perform a leap of faith but don't get conceited because she has no choice but to believe in you after all this, so don't make me regret believing in you too."

Davis couldn't help but chuckle after hearing the solemn tone in the other party's voice.

"There's a saying that in this cut-throat world of cultivation, the first to believe someone is the loser, but in my case, you can rest assured. The first to believe me is the winner."

"You're a quirky and impertinent subordinate, alright." Mival sighed, "I can see why the Dragon Queen would take you in her group while her King-Tier Magical Beast Mount respects you like her Mistress does to hand over a liter of the nectar to you."

Davis just kept his signature smile, not replying to the comment.

At this moment, Zanna appeared beside them as she worriedly looked at Alia while Nadia came beside Davis as she nudged her head below his arm. Davis fondly patted her and saw that she did not transform back to her human form. She was still cautious. After all, returning back to human form meant a drop in prowess for magical beasts....

Mival secretly glanced and was shocked at how the King-Tier Dark-Winged Twilight Wold seemed tame, bonding with Alchemist Davis while letting him pet her. Wasn't the Dark-Winged Twilight Wolf said to be the Dragon Queen's Mount? He momentarily couldn't understand.

This King-Tier Dark Winged Twilight Wolf was flipping his common sense that he couldn't believe his eyes. What about the so-called King-Tier pride? Where did it go?

Nevertheless, he looked at Zanna, "Explain to them what that viridian fruit is..."

Zanna watched Alia sit in a lotus position on a cushion before she began to make a breakthrough. She narrowed her eyes before she turned to look at Nadia with provocation, but it only lasted a moment as she cast her gaze at Davis.

"My bloodline memories don't know its name, but it certainly knows its effects."

'Bloodline memories... That explains why they would dare let Alia take it when they seem to know less about it from the conversation I listened to...' Davis felt like he understood, "Yes, I want to know the effects and what it is exactly as in what laws does it correspond to..."

He felt that it was kind of similar to one of his trump cards, but also not, that invoked his greed for it.

Zanna cooperatively nodded her head, "As far as I know, if a human or a magical beast eats that viridian lightning-patterned fruit, it would begin to deeply carve their soul with its viridian lightning so that even when they die and are born anew, they still have the mark of this fruit with them."

"And then, we can use the tree's Life Searching Branch to show their general direction. With that, we used to find Alia every time she died an excruciating death after having her... soul carved by it. We had no choice but to do it since her lifespan came to an end every time since she is a human who cannot keep up with us, with a fey and a magical beast's lifespan, but I hope that the same doesn't happen to you if the nectar you have given is genuine."

"You can take it away easily... We just left it here for it to grow thirteen thousand years ago, but judging by how scrawny it looks, it would need around a few hundred decades for it to mature. The tree is already dead, so its nutrition comes from absorbing the small, insufficient strands of viridian-lightning from that sea of lightning, making its rate of growth extremely slow."

Zanna pointed at the stabilized Lightning Sea towards the side, causing Davis and Mival to look at it in awe as well.

However, thirteen thousand years ago? No, it was like forty thousand years ago since they seem to have come at least three times here before if Alia did die three times as they said. That was truly a long time, but the people from the Infernal Lightning Palace didn't take this away?

Could it be that this island was a secret island?

Alia did say that it was extremely difficult to get here, so that was true? But then, how did they find their way here? And that too when they were nothing more than Eighth Stage Experts around forty thousand years ago.

"You two mean that this poor Lightning Elemental you captured is also forty thousand years old...?" Davis turned to look at the black lightning globular bolt.

"No," Mival shook his head, "That's a long story if explained, but I'll give you the short version of it."

"What do you do if you are at your wit's end and you need to make a breakthrough to live?"

"You search for resources or rob from others." Davis instantly gave an answer, causing Mival to nod in approval.

"We three chose the former and ended up in the stable lightning sea outside this island. The result? We were stranded for around a thousand years in this distorted space before finally making our way into this island, but it still took hundreds of years to find this area. When we finally spotted this tree, which was on the brink of death, Alia was already on her death-bed. However, Zanna rejoiced and told us that the viridian fruit on this tree could help her remember her previous life memories as long as we bring the Life Searching Branch to her after she dies."

"Left with no choice, we used the fruit on her, and you know the rest. As for how we got out, this Lightning Elemental unfortunately passed by this area at that time when we were panicking, unable to find a way out of this region. From then on, we ambushed it, made it expend its energy before having it show the way out. Since we felt that there might be a need to use it later, we locked it in a container and only used it when we needed it because it refused to cooperate."

"Now, we have no use for it, so you can take it away after it leads us from here."

Davis nodded his head, "Thanks for the information."

Zanna continued, "As for what laws the tree and the viridian fruit correspond to..."
