Three comments:

When you leave the area, there is an autosave so there is no reason to save manually.

You might as well use Blast Arrows with this technique and kill him in one go rather than allow Death to retreat a number of times between kills. You can resupply easily at Arisen's Refuge so, if you start with 999 Blast Arrows in storage, you can farm him quite a few times before you run out of arrows.

I recommend not using a lantern. Damage is multiplied when Death is not in his combat stance as is the case when he has not detected you. Intentionally allowing him to detect you through the use of the lantern puts him in combat stance and prolongs the fight. If you are using Blast Arrows, it takes a significant number of additional arrows to defeat him.
