“Mhm. Alright.”James no longer thought about improving his physical strength after Sophie’s lecture.When the mysterious energy entered his body, James activated his cultivation method. The energy entered his body and diffused into his flesh and blood. He refined the energy and converted it into pure True Energy. From there, James’ True Energy grew rapidly.His True Energy began to climb higher and higher.Consequently, James’ cultivation rank also advanced at an astonishing pace.After soaking in the Energy Pool for a month, James’ cultivation rank had grown considerably.Currently, he was a Fifth Layer Herculean.He was very close to reaching the sixth layer.Once he entered the Sixth Layer, he could break into the Immortal Ascension.He believed he could easily achieve the Immortal Ascension rank with his body and resources in the Celestial Abode.After reaching the Fifth Layer, James had almost absorbed all of the energy from the Energy Pool. With a leap, he flew out of
Over the years, James had come to understand the truth.He would have to get stronger if he did not want to get beaten.It was the eternal truth. He left the Energy Pool where Xavia was cultivating and headed to a mountain in the island’s most central region.It was the highest point and gave him a view of the entire island.“James…”A voice suddenly came from the Celestial Abode. Only James could hear it as it came telepathically.James asked, “What’s wrong?”“This place seems off.”Sophie’s voice sounded in his mind.Confused, James asked, “Hmm? Is there something strange about it?”At that moment, Sophie stood at the City Lord’s Mansion in the Celestial Abode. Since the Celestial Abode was on James, she could sense and see the surroundings from inside the mansion.After scanning the surroundings for a while, she said, “Have you not noticed? There are thirty-three mountains on this island. The layout of these mountains is in a very profound formation. The Energy Pool i
Marcello looked around.Rumble!Under everyone’s watchful eyes, the surrounding mountains shifted in a rapid, continuous motion. The thirty-three mountains rotated around the central region. In just a short moment, the island’s topography had undergone drastic changes.The island’s mountains, landforms, and environment had completely changed.Boom!Suddenly, the mountain James and the others were standing on cracked, and there was a loud burst of sound.Everyone leaped into the air. As soon as everyone was in the air, the mountain below them immediately split open, and an ancient city gradually came into view.After the mountain in the center disintegrated, the surrounding mountains split open.A huge city was hidden beneath the mountain range.The city was well preserved. The city walls were made of black rocks and were very high. The buildings within the city were also all black and had traces of Demonic Energy.Everyone stared at the city in astonishment.The city sudde
Sophie did not feel proud about being praised by James. Instead, she said lightly, “Although the formation is profound to you, it’s nothing to me. It’s a very simple trick to deceive the eye.”“Still, you’re very impressive!”James had a lot of admiration for Sophie.Until now, he still had no idea what Sophie’s cultivation rank was. The only thing he was sure about her was that she was very powerful.“Huff.” Sophie heaved a sigh.“We’re in the greatest era of history, but it’s also one of the darkest ages. Whatever will happen in the future is unpredictable.”Sophie went silent after saying that.At that moment, those who chased after Dead City returned. Not only did they not catch up with Dead City, but they also missed their opportunity to cultivate in the Energy Pool.Yerick and Xavia immediately left the area with their subordinates.Meanwhile, James followed Marcello and Jace away from the glowing Pacific Ocean.…As soon as they returned to Sol, Marcello returned
James said, “It’s been a while since the First Calamity struck the Earth. However, there hasn’t been any providence. I want to enter the Celestial Abode to train before the providence comes so I’ll be able to obtain it.”James was relatively weak compared to other top powerhouses such as Jace, Yerick, and the rest.With his current strength, competing with them for the providence would be impossible.However, the providence could not be obtained through the use of strength alone. It also required a little bit of luck.James knew he was weaker than them and wanted to train harder.“I’ll come with you,” said Thea.Although she was strong amongst Earth’s martial artists, she could not measure up to the cultivators from the other realms.Thea was already a Herculean, and with the Four-Quadrant Art, she could kill powerhouses at the Immortal Ascension. However, her strength was far from enough.She could no longer keep up with the Outsiders. Hence, she wanted to continue training fo
James did not expect the providence to appear so soon.He had traveled to Bane City to inquire about the providence that would appear after the First Calamity. Afterward, he planned to train in seclusion within the Time Chamber for some time to improve his strength to compete for the providence.Unexpectedly, the providence appeared just as he arrived on Mount Bane.At that moment, light rays were bursting out from Mount Bane. Not only that, but numerous light rays were bursting out from all over the earth, and many unknown regions concentrated with Empyrean Spiritual Energy appeared.James asked, “Ms. Sophie, is the providence here? What’s the providence that appears after the calamity? Why are so many Outsiders so eager to obtain it?”In his mind, Sophie's voice sounded. “I don’t know what the providence is. However, it’s definitely very extraordinary. It should appear in a few more days because the Empyrean Spiritual Energy on Earth is just beginning to rise. It will emerge whe
“Then, what’s the providence this time?” asked James.Jace gently shook his head. He did know what it was exactly.Even his master did not have a precise answer.No one in the universe knew what the providence was or what Four Calamities would strike the earth.Jace continued, “I don’t have the answer to your question. The only thing I know is that the providence that will appear along with the Four Calamities is related to the ultimate secret of heaven and earth. It also has something to do with our family’s attack on the Earth during ancient times.”“Oh?” James' curiosity was piqued.Up to now, he had not learned why the Demon Race attacked the Earth in ancient times and why they decided to leave when they were so close to conquering it.In the past, he had asked Marcello about it before, but she refused to explain.James expressed his curiosity. Jace thought for a while and then replied, “Our family attacked Earth because our ancestor was simply following the Heavenly Pa
James stayed in Bane City for three days.At dawn, there was a heaven-and-earth vision.An illusory gate appeared in the sky above Bane City. On the gate, there were a few words.In the past few days, James had been cultivating in the courtyard. He noticed the illusory gate as soon as it appeared. He stared at it for a while but could not read the words floating on it.They were very mysterious ancient words.They seemed to be alive and kept changing.Soon, Marcello, Jace, and some of the Demon Race’s strong men appeared.James walked toward Marcello and asked, “Look over there. That illusory gate just appeared and is connected to the seal in the sky. There are some words on the gate. Can you read the words?”Before Marcello could answer, Jace replied, “I can read it.”James looked at Jace and asked, “What do they mean?”“Space-Time Portal.”Shocked, James asked, “Space-Time Portal? What exactly does that mean?”Jace shook his head and said, “I’m not sure. If I’m not wrong
