He knew that the cultivators of Mount Springcastle could help him defuse the crisis. Yet, they remained in the comfort of their homes and simply watched from the sidelines. “Calm down, James. Let’s think of something else.” “How am I supposed to calm down when my family is in danger?!’ James roared. Then, he marched toward Mount Bane with angry steps. If anything happened to his family, he would make the Divinity Sect pay a hefty price. “James, don’t act rashly!” The Omniscient Deity shouted. However, James ignored him and headed in the direction of the Divinity Sect. Soon, he arrived at his destination. At the foot of the mountain, there were many disciples of the Divinity Sect. They all wore ancient robes and wielded swords. “Who’s there?” Upon his appearance, James’ path was blocked. James glared at them. However, even though he was enraged, he suppressed his fury and said, “James Caden.” Hearing that, the disciples roared in laughter. “You’re finally h
James took a deep breath and looked at Thea and Winnie with a smile, saying, “Leave. I’ll be fine.” Thea was no longer the innocent young girl from before. Hence, she did not linger for long. She grabbed Winnie’s hand and turned to leave. “Daddy… Daddy!” However, Winnie called out for James, reluctant to leave. Thea hugged Winnie and looked at the Callahans, saying, “Grandpa, we should leave.” James watched them leave. After they left, James breathed a sigh of relief and turned to look at Yuvaan, saying coldly, “I’m all yours now. I hope you’ll hold up to your end of the bargain and leave my family alone. Or else, I’ll never forgive you.” “Lock him up!” Yuvaan ordered. Then, James was taken away and imprisoned inside a dark and damp dungeon. At the same time, in Bane City… Marcello and Jace were in the courtyard of the residence they were in. “Jace, I just received news that James has been imprisoned by the Divinity Sect. What should we do now?” Jace smiled fa
As Yuvaan gave his order, a few disciples immediately walked over to James, untied him, and released his acupuncture points. That was because Yuvaan was unafraid of James. Even though James was the greatest fighter on Earth, he was nothing more than an ant in Yuvaan’s eyes. Soon, the material was ready. James wrote the cultivation method of Sacrilegious Ascension and handed it to Yuvaan. Upon scrutinizing it, however, his face darkened. “What is this?” Stunned, he asked, “Is this how you cultivated Sacrilegious Ascension?” James nodded and said, “That’s why I said you won’t be able to cultivate it even if I give it to you.” “Are you playing tricks on me?!” Yuvaan’s expression darkened, and powerful True Energy gathered in his palm. Then, he struck James in the chest, sending him flying and crashing against the wall. James collapsed heavily to the ground and vomited a mouthful of blood. Even though James had regained his strength, he did not stand a chance against Yuvaan
James would be able to make his escape easily. After all, although his cultivation base was sealed, he still had tremendous physical strength. Besides, he still had the Celestial Abode too, not to mention Sophie’s presence. She insisted that she would not help him resolve the matter, but she should be able to assist him in escaping. The only thing he was concerned about was that the Divinity Sect would target his family if he escaped. James was in a bind. “James, do you admit to your sins?” a voice boomed. James collected himself and looked at Yuvaan, snickering. “What sins?” Yuvaan admonished him, “As a descendant of sinners, you should be repenting for your sins. Yet you colluded with the Demon Race and cultivated the Demonic Arts.” James questioned, “Where’s the evidence?” “Stop trying to talk your way out of this!” Yuvaan said coldly, “Since you demand evidence, I’ll show you!” Then, he played a few videos that were taken when James fought against Xain and the other
Boom! A flash of lightning struck the stone pillar and then James. When the lightning struck James, he could only feel pain so excruciating that even his soul shivered. Then, he let loose an anguished scream. No one stepped forward to defend James, nor did anyone feel any sympathy toward him. After all, James was an earthling, a descendant of sinners. Their ancestors perished because of the earthlings’ ancestors’ betrayal. After the first flash of lightning struck James, he already suffered grave injuries. However, Demonic Energy immediately circulated throughout his body and healed his injuries. Before he could react, the second flash of lightning struck him. “Argh!” James cried out in anguish. His physical body and even his soul underwent agonizing torture. In the distance, Marcello furrowed her eyebrows and said, “Jace, are we just going to sit here and watch?” Wearing a calm expression, Jace said coldly, “I only need him alive. Besides, I believe he can survive this
James had suffered from being struck by lightning for two weeks now, and his Demonic Energy was utterly depleted. Regardless, as his physical body was extraordinary, he was not turned to ashes by lightning strikes. Rather, it was charred and burned repeatedly. Meanwhile, his soul was severely damaged. However, since had a strong physical body, his soul managed to remain intact. Other cultivators would have died long ago. Yuvaan watched James’ condition intently. To him, James’ fate did not concern him. If he perished, he would simply imprison his soul and seize his physical body. “Haha… His physical body truly is impressive. Others would have died long ago.” Yuvaan was stunned by James’ physical body. His desire to seize it only grew more intense. James’ vision was blurry, and he could feel his life hanging by a thread. ‘Am I going to die?’ That thought sprung to mind. He did not want to die. However, he could not escape because he was afraid of the Divinity Sect’s repris
James’ voice boomed. Then, he entered the seal and disappeared from Mount Bane. “Dammit!” Yuvaan’s face darkened as he cursed, “Who the hell is helping him behind the scenes?” The scene was broadcasted live all over the globe. Upon seeing James escape, Thea breathed a sigh of relief. Before James left, he summoned what remained of his strength and roared. After that, he soon lost consciousness. As he entered the seal, he had no idea where he would end up. After some time, James slowly regained consciousness. He was feeling sluggish. When he tried getting up, an excruciating pain came from inside his body. Then, upon realizing a white curtain before him, he murmured, “Am I dead? Where am I?” “You’re awake.” Just as he was puzzled, a voice spoke. James tried turning his head to see where the voice came from. However, as he was gravely injured, excruciating pain came from inside his body the moment he moved. “Your injuries are severe. You shouldn’t move around,” the vo
After being continuously struck by lightning for two weeks, his physical body suffered terrible injuries, and his soul was damaged. Even though he had rested for a month, his injuries had yet to recover. Now, he had only regained consciousness. However, although his injuries were still visible, his Demonic Energy had been slowly recovering. His recovery speed would gradually increase. James lay on the bed and rested. At the same time, outside the room… “What’s wrong? Did something happen?” A glamorous-looking woman wearing a white dress looked at the chambermaid who was in a hurry and admonished her, “Stop making such a fuss! You’re a servant of the Yanis household!” “My Lady, the Zaydons are here to discuss your engagement!” Hearing this, the woman frowned. This was the Ancient Realm, the most powerful world among the three thousand Sealed Realms. The woman’s name was Melany Yanis, a member of the Yanis household of Kineallen City, which was located inside Doncaster.
