Divine Emperor of Death

longing expression on his face.

He had once considered exploring the universe to complete his life, but the technological advancement was limited and he had no way to make that dream come true.

Even now, he still could guess that humanity of Earth still hadn ’t entered the Space Era.

Taking a deep breath, he let out a sigh. 

’Ah, the familiar yet polluted atmosphere.. ’

He had returned! He had finally returned! 

He glanced at the direction where his home was and found it dilapidated to an extent.
His eyesight was so powerful that he could even see the insects in his garden. 

However, his eyes narrowed as he frowned.
Seems like there were incidents of break-ins as the doorknobs and even the windows were damaged and destroyed.

Only a slight amount of dissatisfaction remained in his heart before it he couldn ’t feel anything about it.

He extended his Soul Sense, and it started to cover the entirety of China in an instant, and extended beyond, covering all other countries as it made its way around the corner of the globe until it finally relinked with his Soul Sense that joined from the other side.

People, animals, insects, every little creature entered his senses, except the beings that were at the microscopic level.

’Around 14 billion humans, 35 billion animals, oops most of them are livestock… ’ He took a slight pause and added in his mind,  ’Maybe more than a hundred quintillion insects. ’

That exact moment, he felt all of them were in his control, making them submit to his whims.
He felt as if he were a god!

Chuckling lightly, he laughed at himself inwardly,  ’A God? With my puny cultivation that haven ’t even reached the Ninth Stage yet? ’

However, a thought really did tempt his mind.
Using his Soul Sense while sending Soul Transmission to everyone on Earth simultaneously, if he were to say that he was the God or the messiah, then he would really be turned into a deity by maybe more than half the total population.

Instant status upgrade to God? Such a title seemed really tempting, however, his expression turned solemn.

He located twelve places that had given weird reactions to his Soul Sense.

’The Vile Vortices…
Of course…. ’ Davis inwardly mused and laughed.
His doubts were on point.

In this world, these twelve places were the only mysterious places on Earth and it is said that they were dangerous because of the Earth ’s Magnetic Field.

But was it only because of the magnetic field present there? The answer to it was already seen by Davis as his Soul Sense couldn ’t penetrate these twelve spots.

He cast a glance at Clara and saw her looking at him before she turned her gaze away to the world in curiosity.

High-rise buildings which were really taller than the ones which existed when he left, rail tracks passing through buildings, flying cars traveling like in a fixed-line as if they were pre-programmed, traffic and modern lights colored the entire city.

He followed her gaze and saw a flying car buzzing in the altitude of 300 meters above the ground.
The flying car propelled forwards and left the high-rise building from the platform that was built at the side of the building.

Davis extended his hand and the side glass of the flying car broke as an object shot past towards the skies. 

The object that shot that broke the window of the flying car while making it sound alert tones, landed in Davis ’s hand.

He flipped it towards his wrist and touched a few places that were indicated but then furrowed his brows in an annoyed manner.

”Kid…
What ’s the password? ” Davis sent a Soul Transmission to the passenger who was in the flying car but received no answer.

The passenger was a teen who wore glasses, and there was no driver because the one who drove the flying car was nothing but an AI.

Davis knew that the other party in the flying car was terrified of the voice that echoed in his mind.
He asked again but received a reply asking him that if he were a system.

Davis turned speechless.
His eyes twitched and a wide grin lit up his face, ”Yes, I can only give you access to the system if I know your password… ”

Davis instantly got the password from the delusional brat and he even felt somewhat sorry for deceiving that poor soul. 

In any case, the teen looked rich and he got the password from him to access the holo-phone, and with it, he could check the ongoing events on Earth by connecting to the internet.

Once he inputted the password, the bracelet like holo-phone lit up and projected an image in the air.
He doubted if he could even connect to the internet at this altitude but his worries were unfounded.

Yes, using the internet was the fastest way to get general information about the world and it didn ’t seem like it would change any time soon.

Davis touched a few points on the empty air, to be precise, the options on the holo screen that was constantly changing with his touches.

’This was still not in the commercial market when I left Earth, but now it looks like these are pretty normal… ’ Davis thought as he looked up searches for major events from 2030.

He skimmed through and one such event caught his eyes.

[2036: Era of Air Transport! Flying Cars produced en masse!]

While looking at this news, he wasn ’t surprised since flying cars were already present in the 2020s, used for experimental tests but were discontinued due to various reasons.

Such as, ramming the car into buildings, the engines shutting down for various reasons, leading to the loss of life both in the flying car and the lives that were directly below. 

Such cases were rampant and led to the fall of flying cars until AI was introduced into flying cars in 2036.

They had designated routes in the sky and followed rigid protocol to maneuver, so the number of accidents took place were considerably lessened.

Even so, it seemed that only the rich could afford these flying pieces of junk, and they mostly do to strut around their statuses.

Coming back to the pieces of news, he searched for other sections of important events and found it!
