A change in Spirit Root, Spirit Blood, or Spirit Essence usually meant a change in constitution or unique physique, but something like that...

'Unless it revealed itself, it was too hard to find and identify...' Davis mused.

For example, if Clara never displayed the peculiarity of her unique physique from the glow in her eyes, their parents would've never found out and connected it with the Transcendent Truth Eyes. It would've remained unknown until Clara investigated it by herself or by telling others she could see through the truth.

Davis also knew those who possessed a variation Spirit Root would usually have an innately mutated Revolving Core when they form their Revolving Core for the first time.

So, in the same way, if Tina Roxley's Spirit Essence had undergone a change, he wouldn't know unless it could show a peculiar feature that would allow him to differentiate.

Controlling three energies at once? There were no such records of such a concept in the Soul Palace. However, he searched for the side effects of the state that Tina Roxley was in, the Aching Desolate Soul Ailment. Meanwhile, he took a peculiar stone that both he and Tina Roxley were familiar with.

"The Talent Assessment Stone?"

Davis nodded to Tina Roxley's doubtful voice. Hadn't she already used it?

On the other hand, Davis felt that he had no way to check if it mutated as the Talent Assessment Device isn't something used for checking variations. However, he still decided to try, hoping that it might try to answer him or even some kind of change.

Tina Roxley obliged without saying another word and used the Talent Assessment Stone.

[Bone Age: Less than fifty]

[Essence Gathering Cultivation Talent: Peak-Level Sky Grade Spirit Root]

[Body Tempering Cultivation Talent: High-Level Sky Grade Spirit Blood]

[Soul Forging Cultivation Talent: Peak-Level Sky Grade Spirit Essence]

[Final Talent Assessment: Peak Sky]

Davis skimmed the results while still contemplating.

It displayed him with the same results as last time.

'Right, my Spirit Root has probably become both fire and lightning attributed. Since it didn't show in my talent assessment, how would it appear in her talent assessment?'

Davis felt stupid, but he suddenly noticed a minute change.

Peak-Level Sky Grade Spirit Essence? Wasn't it Low-Level before when he checked for everyone else!?

"This is..."

Tina Roxley also noticed this change and became astonished.

She wondered if this could be the reason while Davis also wondered,

'Could it be that once Tina entered the Elder Soul Stage and underwent a qualitative increase in her soul quality, her Spirit Essence truly mutated...?'

At the same time, he found some records on the Aching Desolate Soul Ailment before he suddenly understood what caused the change in her soul.

"It seems like after people managed to extricate themselves out of the self-inflicted solitary confinement state that you were in, they seem to have obtained some fortunate gains."

Davis spoke, causing Tina Roxley to become taken aback.

"Huh...? How?"

She couldn't understand how cowardice equal gained. Even she knew that she refused to accept the reality that day and somehow collapsed, never to wake up again until she heard his voice.

"That's because your soul imprint manifested in your soul essence and had a brief encounter with the heaven and earth energy and its sea of laws, possibly making your Spirit Essence mutate and experience growth from it. However, with my current strength, I can't sense anything..."

Davis shook his sad sadly.

The reason wasn't written in the Soul Palace's records, but it did say that those who managed to awaken from that ailment had a minute amount of chance to experience an increase in their comprehension of laws that they had not even touched before, in one instance, even allowing one to comprehend Death Laws or chance upon it.

However, Tina Roxley seemed to have come across two laws that emphasized or supported her Fire Laws.

Learning this from Davis, Tina Roxley appeared dumbfounded. She didn't understand much of what he was telling her but did understand that her soul had possibly mutated, meaning...

"Do you think that I gained a unique physique?"

She couldn't help but ask with excited and hopeful eyes.

Davis shook his head again.

"As I said, I can't say anything until I know more about it. However, it is possible that your soul is in the initial stages of awakening a physique from the mutation, although I'll warn you that you shouldn't hope for it to become a reality because if this mutation is something much more than what it seems to be, then there's also a chance that your soul might collapse from being unable to withstand the change."

Tina Roxley's lips twitched as she almost flinched.

She was hoping to obtain a unique physique, not death, especially not after finally managing to stay together with him.

As for the reason why she desired this unique physique, who didn't want a unique physique?

Possessing a unique physique meant differentiating oneself from the common populace and consequently making Davis love and dote on her more. What else could make her appear more desirable to him? 

'You're so greedy, Tina... Learn to appreciate what you have...'

Even now, she still felt a bit envious of not having one but knowing that she should win him over through her current self, she inwardly reprimanded herself. 

However, she didn't know that in the past, Davis also felt envious of people with unique physiques until he convinced himself that Fallen Heaven was the biggest boon he had in his life.

"Fire, Earth, and Metal." Davis suddenly uttered as he raised his head, "All three are useful laws for Alchemy and Forging in differing degrees, and when used in conjunction like you are capable of, the efficiency drastically increases."

He couldn't help but shake his head ruefully.

"If Sophie heard about this matter, she would become completely jealous. Even I feel somewhat jealous..."

Tina Roxley appeared taken aback before she smilingly pursed her lips with a big smile on her face.

"I dislike Forging~"

"You'll still beat me in Alchemy when you reach my level, sigh..."

Davis appeared crestfallen before secretly wrapping his arm around her waist on the sofa, pulling her towards him.

"How about this? You take care of my cultivation in the future by concocting pills for me, and I'll love you to death, hmm?"

"..."

Tina Roxley still didn't answer but stared at his handsome and attractive face with upturned eyes as her cheeks kept reddening until they became crimson. The words that came out of his mouth were all the lines of a scoundrel, but somehow, she couldn't help but love it. 

Her lips willing parted as she closed her eyes while Davis's eyes brightened. He leaned and took her delicate cherry lips, indulging in her taste as he kissed her skillfully.

"Nn~"

Tina Roxley gave out some delectable sounds that garnered him to work hard and capture her tongue that hid in her mouth. After a long-lasting unforgettable kiss, they parted their lips and looked at each other with an endearing gaze.

"Tina, you belong to me." Davis's lips moved, "Forget the person you saw in your divination, for that person doesn't exist. I am me, and you're also you. not the same Tina in the divination. Even if it takes a long time, know that I want to cultivate my relationship with you, both metaphorically and literally."

"..."

Tina Roxley bit her lips as her limpid amethyst eyes began to tear up before she possessed a heartened yet amused smile on her face.

She found his words funny when she felt that they were both the same person but knowing that their fates were something that changed from what she saw in the divination, she heavily nodded her head.

"The person whom I yearned for in the past and even now is none other than you. This won't change in the future, and I promise it at the cost of my life."

Tina Roxley possessed a soft expression on her face as she gazed at his eyes, seemingly entranced before she leaned and kissed him.

Davis took her soft cherry lips again and gave her some love that she had desperately wanted. However, he didn't dare to go too far, afraid that it might descend into a situation where neither can hold back anymore.

He gave her one last kiss as he embraced her tightly before he excused himself out of her embrace but then suddenly pulled on her.

"Ah~"

He made her lay on his lap before he brushed her silky white hair that flickered with a silver light under the lighting of the room.

Tina Roxley was startled for a moment before she smiled and peacefully rested on his lap, noticing that he still looked handsome from this angle, contrary to her imagination.

"I feel satisfied~"

"Be greedy for more."

Davis tapped on her cute nose in a playful manner before he flipped his hand, and a pill appeared in his palm, which he then held between his index and thumb finger as he presented it to her.

"This is..."

Tina Roxley became taken aback by the immense aura the seven-colored pill radiated. It was like a rainbow that formed in front of her face, making her feel awestruck.

"Take this..." Davis pulled on her hand and placed it in her palm, closing her fist with his hand as he held her dearly, "This should help your fortunate gains multiply if I'm right..."

Tina Roxley felt confused. This pill gave her the feeling that it was not something that she would ever encounter in her life that she couldn't help but ask as her lips quivered.

"Wh- What is this?"

"The Sage Tree Essence Pill." Davis deeply smiled, "It allows your comprehension of laws to obtain a significant boost, especially the law you're most talented in innately. Although it is rather wasteful to use it on your stage, it is worth it! Being able to control three laws at the same time is a significant matter! You should take advantage of this chance since you just recently broke through Elder Soul Stage, and perhaps, like Natalya being able to fuse Yin and Ice Laws to a lesser degree, you'll be able to fuse your three laws as well!"

Gazing at Davis look at her with eyes full of excitement, Tina Roxley's eyes similarly trembled. However, she became stiff before she shook her head.

"No! If this pill can do something like that, you need this more."

"What?" Davis narrowed his eyes, "Are you not willing to accept my gift?"

"You..." Tina Roxley couldn't tell if he was kidding or not, "It's not like that. I'm willing, but you cannot gift me such a precious-"

"Is this pill precious than the life that I used to protect you all that day?"

Tine Roxley appeared dumbfounded at his question and recalled that day she matched gaze with him right before he decided to pull off that suicidal move of killing all the hostile powerhouses in the vicinity.

That was what deeply moved her but also made her not want to live anymore, not without him.

"I'll die to protect you and my other lovely women, so why wouldn't I give mere resources? Tell me."

Davis lovingly caressed her cheek, causing tears to flood down her face.

Tina Roxley closed her eyes. She decided that she wouldn't cry again after she had woken up in his embrace as he assured his love for her, but now, she still felt cherished and secured in his presence, shedding tears of joy.

When she opened her eyes, only determination shone as she looked into his eyes.

"When I reach your level, I promise that I'll take care of your cultivation, even my sisters."

"Good!"

Davis smiled as he leaned and took her lips again while Tina Roxley reciprocated with passion, squirming on his lap while moving her legs. Their lips then separated before Davis brushed her silky white hair, certainly feeling that his love for her was becoming more and more visible to him as he came to understand that he wanted to cherish her more.

However...

'At this point, I can't say that Shirley has two more of these High-Level Emperor Grade Sage Tree Essence Pills, can I?'

Davis felt that it was best to keep quiet and perhaps tell it another day as he didn't want to ruin the mood.
