Chapter 1792
Three years later, on a mountain in Sol… A man carrying a pack basket was traversing the landscape. Holding a sickle in his hand, he wore a simple sackcloth and a pair of straw sandals. His pack basket was full of herbs he uprooted from the ground. “Huh, what’s this herb?” Suddenly, he saw a glimmering green light on a cliff in the distance. Although the light only glimmered for a split second, the man with impeccable eyesight could see the herb even from a hundred meters away. As he murmured, he leaped into the air and flew toward the cliff. Standing in mid-air, he simply stared at the herb.The herb, which looked like an orchid from the outside, had bloomed a beautiful red. At that moment, he could even smell the fragrance of the herb.The man was James, who had been living a life of seclusion for three years. Over the past three years, he had been collecting herbs in the mountains whenever he was free. In fact, he had planted all sorts of herbs around the village. All thes

“By the way, Thea…” Upon thinking about the herb he picked in the mountains, James immediately took it out of the pack basket and handed it over to Thea, saying, “Look what I found.” Thea took it. The moment she made contact with the herb, she was stunned. “What powerful Empyrean Spiritual Energy!” “Indeed.” James said, “I’ve been collecting herbs for three years. This is the first time I’ve encountered a herb that possesses such majestic Empyrean Spiritual Energy. However, there are no records of this herb in the Medical Book. What about the Book of Malice?” Thea scrutinized the herb for a moment before shaking her head slightly, saying, “No, I don’t know what this herb is either.” “In any case, we should plant it.” “Mhm.” Thea returned the herb to James. James immediately headed to the backyard, dug a hole, and planted the herb. Then, he watered the plant. After planting the herb, he returned to the courtyard. Thea was sitting on a swing caressing her tummy. Upo

After having a simple meal, Thea returned to her room and continued her prenatal education. Meanwhile, James and Callan continued drinking. After watching Thea leave, James leaned over to Callan and asked, “What happened in the ancient martial world?" As James had not kept up with the ancient martial world’s affairs, he had no idea how much had changed. Over the past three years, he simply researched the Medical Book, martial arts, the Lunar and Terra Art, and the natural principles of the world. In essence, he had been living a life of leisure. However, it was boring and uneventful. Reinvigorated, Callan turned to have a look at the house before whispering, “I haven’t been paying close attention to the events in the ancient martial world too. A few days ago, I heard some rumors on the street while I was out for a walk.” Hearing this, James’ curiosity was piqued. He hurriedly asked, “Oh, just tell me about it already!” “Calm down… This is a long story…” Callan smoked his

However, he did not expect his grandfather to be a part of this. “Apart from that, many powerful martial artists and sects have emerged in Sol. You know Maxine Caden, don’t you?” James looked at Callan and asked, “What happened to Maxine?” “Huh…” Callan said, “She’s an impressive woman, I must say. Though she also obtained the Dragon Essence and the dragon’s blood, she’s kept a low profile over the past three years. She’s been in closed-door meditation all this while and seldom left her residence. Just three months ago, she suddenly appeared and announced her separation from the Cadens. She’s now known as just Maxine to the outside world. Not only that, she even established Floret Palace. She’s now known as Master of Floret Palace to the ancient martial world.” Upon hearing this, James was lost in contemplation. The fact that Maxine left the Cadens and established Floret Palace deeply stunned him. “What else is there?” James looked at Callan. Callan continued, “Japura h

Hearing this, James could not help but be stunned. He never expected there to be such drastic changes in the ancient martial world in just three short years. It seemed everyone had benefitted greatly from slaying the dragon three years ago. Things were even more chaotic now than they had been back then. “By the way, what about the Blood Race? What have they been up to over the past three years?” James asked. Callan said, “They’ve been keeping a low profile all this while. Apart from the First Blood Emperor who would occasionally show himself once in a while, the rest almost never appeared in public. They might be intimidated by the Solean ancient martial artists.” “I see…” James said. Then, holding the wine glass in his hand, he said, “What’s the point of knowing all this? I’m now living a happy and carefree life. I’m not getting myself involved in this.” “But, can you stay out of it?” Callan said, “Many powerful martial artists have emerged. You’ve cultivated the Lunar

“Pipe down! She could be Favion Hansel’s friend. She looks like she possesses extraordinary strength.” Many conversed in whispers. Upon seeing Maxine, Favion momentarily froze. Wearing a puzzled expression on his face, he murmured, “Isn’t she Maxine, Master of Floret Palace and the woman who left the Cadens’ household? Why is she here?” After collecting himself, Favion walked over to Maxine with a bright smile. “Welcome, Master of Floret Palace. What a surprise this is! Please make yourself comfortable.” Maxine’s name had been well-known by all recently. It was natural for Favion to recognize her almost immediately. As he thought Maxine was here for his birthday banquet, he welcomed her warmly.However, Maxine looked at him coldly and simply raised her arm. Powerful energy gathered in her palm, and she struck Favion.Favion was immediately sent flying. “…” The crowd fell silent as they watched Favion crash against the wall and collapse heavily to the ground.

Learning that his True Energy, which had been stagnant for three years, increased, James was delighted. “Thea!” He rushed into the house excitedly. At that moment, Thea was sitting on a chair in the courtyard while reading stories to her soon-to-be-born baby. Upon seeing James rushing over to her, she rolled her eyes and said, “You’re no longer a child, James. Calm down.” “Wait, I can explain! My True Energy increased after absorbing the Spiritual Energy of the herb. I’m heading to the back of the mountain to see if I can make a breakthrough.” Back then, James could not make a breakthrough no matter how hard he tried. Now, he was tempted to give it another try. “Go on, then.” Thea waved her hand slightly, After gaining her approval, he hurriedly turned to leave and headed to the back of the mountain. Soon, he arrived in the woods behind the wooden house. After finding an empty plot of land, he sat in a lotus position on the ground and catalyzed the Lunar and Terra

In his room, James contemplated ways that would allow him to cross into the ninth rank. At that moment, he wanted to seek those who had crossed into the ninth rank for assistance—Sky, the Prince of Orchid Mountain, the Omniscient Deity, and even his grandfather. Thomas had made a breakthrough and had become a Half-Saint. Soon, Thea walked in. “Darling.” She spoke in a gentle and melodious tone. James collected himself and looked at Thea with a smile. “Hey, there.” Thea sat beside him. “The baby’s due soon.” “I know.” James nodded and grabbed Thea’s hand, saying, “I promise to always be by your side. Until the baby is born, I won’t be going anywhere. After living here for three years, I’ve grown attached to this carefree and peaceful life.” Though this was what James said, Thea knew he wanted to leave to the outside world. “Mhm.” She did not say anything more. That day, James remained at home. In the courtyard, he repeatedly swung his wooden sword. Though his movem
