Sophie explained that she could not directly help James kill his enemies. Since she held a significant rank, her every action would have great consequences.Everything she did would result in a chain reaction. The Karma brought about by these consequences would be considerable, she would be able to bear the burden of some of it but not all.James was very interested in the topic.However, Sophie refused to explain further. She simply said he was still lacking in many aspects, and as such, he did not need to know about it yet.James had no choice but to give up for the time being.He looked at Sophie, dressed in white, and asked curiously, “Ms. Sophie, what is your current rank? How strong are you?”Sophie responded with a smile but did not answer James’ question.“What do you mean?” James frowned.Sophie replied, “I’ve told you many times. There’s no need for you to understand these things right now. When your strength improves, you’ll naturally understand everything.”After s
James followed behind her.The stone house’s interior was spacious and bright.Inside the house, there was a very extraordinary formation. James could not understand it but saw countless mysterious symbols gathered together to form a strange pattern.Within the center of the strange formation was an egg.The egg was large, with a one-meter diameter. The eggshell was purple, and some mysterious purple characters slithered around the eggshell.As soon as he got close to the stone house, James sensed a powerful force. When he saw the egg, he felt he had come across a huge monster. At that moment, he felt quite insignificant.James asked curiously, “W-What’s this?” Sophie stared at it for a long time. Her expression gradually became solemn, and she took a deep breath. “Haah!”“What’s wrong?” asked James.Sophie collected herself and said, “I really didn’t expect to find such an ineffable within this grotto.”“Ineffable?”After a brief shock, James asked, “Ms. Sophie, don’t beat
James’ blood melted into the eggshell and was absorbed into it, disappearing without a trace.At that moment, a powerful force came from inside the eggshell and rapidly absorbed James’ blood. James had lost too much blood in such a short period , his face went pale.He showed signs of passing out and wanted to withdraw his hand.However, the force coming from the eggshell was powerful, and he could not retract his hand.Gradually, he started to feel dizzy.Just when James was about to pass out, the force disappeared, and he fell headfirst to the ground. He did not even have the strength to get back up.He mobilized his True Energy.His True Energy circulated in his body, and he activated the regeneration ability in his blood.James struggled to get up, then sat in the lotus position on the ground as he stared at the eggshell.Right in front of his eyes, the egg began to shine with a dazzling purple light.Crack!While in a daze, James heard the sound of the egg beginning to
Seeing James come out, she walked over and asked, “How did it go, James? Did you have any luck?”James shook his head slightly and said, “Nope. I wandered around the grotto for a long time but felt like I was getting disorientated by the paths, so I didn’t dare to venture any deeper. In the end, I turned back.”“It’s alright.”Laelia smiled and consoled him, “Since ancient times, many of my family members have come to the grotto, but none of them found their trip fruitful. Since we didn’t find anything, let’s head back.”James nodded. “Alright.”He did not say anything about the Gorger because he did not want to cause a fuss.With Yuliana leading the way, James and Laelia left the grotto. Soon, they returned to the village.Sylvester waited in the village this whole time.Seeing them return, he walked over and asked with a gentle smile, “How did it go? Did you two find anything?”Laelia gently shook her head and sighed, saying, “We were unsuccessful.”Sylvester said with a sm
There was now a crack in the seal to the Three Thousand Worlds. Those who were relatively weaker could easily pass through the seal to Earth.The seal was powerful, and stronger people could not easily travel through to Earth for the time being. Even if they were to be able to pass through, they would have to pay a heavy price for doing so.Laelia’s strength was mediocre, as such she would easily have been able to pass through the seal.However, Earth was currently in a chaotic state, and she would not be able to compete for the treasures. Thus, she might as well stay in the Land of Tabal.The two returned on the same path.A few days later, they arrived back at Tabalham.Upon their arrival, the Targwyns bombarded James with questions. However, his answer remained unchanged. He told them he obtained nothing.The Targwyns were not surprised that James’ trip to the island was fruitless. So many of their family members had gone to the ancestral land in the past, but all were to no
James was not in a hurry and waited patiently. James walked into the Celestial Abode with Laelia as the soldiers moved the grains.As soon as James walked into the City Lord’s Mansion inside the Celestial Abode, a purple bird flew over. It gradually shrank to the size of a sparrow, then landed on James’ shoulder.“Oh!”Laelia could not help exclaiming upon Seeing the sparrow-sized Gorger.James turned around and looked at her, asking, “What’s wrong?”Laelia stared at the Gorger intently. After a few seconds, she said with a smile, “It looks very similar to the red bird at the village in my family’s ancestral lands.”James felt a shiver run down his spine after hearing her words.The little bird at the village in the Targwyns’ ancestral land?James did not pay attention, so he did not know there was a similar bird in the ancestral land. However, if Laelia pointed it out, she must be correct.James knew the purple bird was a Gorger.‘Could there be another Gorger in the Targwyn
As usual, Sophie refused to explain.She left the City Lord’s Mansion and went to the training ground behind the city.James had no way of dealing with her.Afterward, he took Laelia around the city and briefly told her of the Celestial Abode’s origin.Laelia’s face was full of astonishment.Meanwhile, the soldiers quickly moved the grains into the Celestial Abode and completed their tasks swiftly. Laelia ordered them to bring some seeds for James to bring back to Earth.After all the grain was moved into the Celestial Abode, James stood outside and shrank it down.Many people were gathered in the military base, including the Emperor of the Tabal Empire, Zoe, Laelia, and other Targwyn family members.Laelia waved at James sadly. “Let’s meet again one day, James. I’ll devote myself to my training and find you when the Land of Tabal merges with the Earth.”Zoe walked toward James and said, “Mr. Caden, are you sure you don’t want to stay a while longer? Is there really such a rus
Sword Lights flickered, and True Energy swept through the air. The terrifying True Energy rippled through the surroundings like waves of water, causing 100-meter tsunamis to form in the water.The tsunami crashed toward James. His body was like a boat swaying along with violent motions.James stepped forward and appeared higher in the air.He looked at the island in front of him with a frown and said, “Why are cultivators fighting in the Pacific Ocean? Has some kind of treasure appeared here?”James felt that the only reason cultivators would fight each other so fiercely was over some sort of valuable treasure.The people who fought against each other had powerful auras. James could sense that these people were at least the Fifth Stair of Immortal Ascension.Strong men of such ranks would be considered elites even within the Three Thousand Worlds. They were perhaps only slightly weaker than some Outsiders but were fully capable of fighting over any boons that appeared on the Eart
