The Ancient Blood was made by one of the Ancient Clan’s ancestors from the Primordial Age. He had used all his True Energy and fresh blood to refine the Ancient Blood. As expected from such an extraordinary tonic, just a drop increased James’ True Energy by leaps and bounds.James was currently at the Immortal Ascension’s Second Stair and would need a lot of True Energy to make a breakthrough.Absorbing Empyrean Spiritual Energy to cultivate would take an average person ten years or even longer.However, James would only need one month with the help of the Ancient Blood.James began to focus on cultivating within the Time Chamber.His True Energy increased day by day.A month passed in the blink of an eye.James had reached the peak of the Immortal Ascension’s Second Stair and could soon break into the Third Stair.However, he knew he could still condense his True Essence.Thus, he began condensing his cultivation rank and True Essence.Since he had a lot of time, he continuo
After so long, the Gorger had not grown yet. It looked exactly as when it hatched.Sophie walked over and said with a smile. “Don’t underestimate it, James. Although it looks cute, its strength isn’t inferior to yours once it transforms.”Startled, James asked, “Is it that strong?”“Of course.”Sophie said, “There are countless spiritual fruits in the Celestial Abode. During this time, the Gorger has consumed spiritual fruits, and since its predecessor is super strong, the Gorger has huge potential. Its strength will improve rapidly.”“Good.”James caressed the Gorger and said with a smile, “Cultivate hard! When I return to Earth, we’ll destroy the Divinity Sect’s elder together.”The Gorger chirped in response to James.“Ms. Sophie, I won’t stay in the Celestial Abode any longer. I’ll leave and have a look outside.”James had been meditating in seclusion for more than ten days. Thus, he was unsure of what was happening outside. He could not disappear for too long. After he bi
Yoan had been waiting for several days. Upon entering the room, he must have noticed that James was missing and came out of the room.James stood on the spot, not knowing what to say.However, Yoan did not ask any questions.He did indeed enter James’ room to find him. After searching the yard and the room, James was nowhere to be seen.Although Yoan did not know where James went and how he suddenly reappeared, he did not confront James.He understood that everyone had their own secrets. It was unsurprising that James had a secret of his own.“Some of the academy’s elders have brought their disciples to the Divinity Sect to participate in the Grand Tournament. Let’s go.”Yoan stood up. Many of the Welkin Academy’s elders had already set out with their disciples.However, the duo was late because Yoan was waiting for James.“Okay,” James uttered softly.Yoan summoned magical flying tools and hopped onto one of them.James also leaped onto a magical flying tool.The Grand
James was confident in his strength.Their party continued to advance.Soon, they were on Mount Divinity. At the mountain foot, there was a stone tablet with a height of 100 meters. Vivid words were engraved on the stone tablet—Divinity Sect.Many people were standing outside the Divinity Sect’s gate at that moment.“The Divinity Sect sure is arrogant. They’re making so many people wait outside their mountain gate.” Jeffery from the Welkin Academy had a dissatisfied look.The other elders agreed with him.“Right? We’ve already arrived, but no one is here to welcome us.”“The Divinity Sect sure has become more domineering in recent years.”The Welkin Academy’s headmaster said, “Don’t be impatient. Let’s just wait for a while.”James scanned the surroundings. There were at least 30,000 people gathered in the area. Almost all of them were elders with their disciples.Suddenly, he remembered he had not let Henry and Delainey out.He scanned his surroundings and walked to a des
Standing on the flight of stairs, the Divine Holy Emperor, who was wearing a golden robe, exuded an overwhelming aura. His voice boomed, reverberating through the area. “Welcome, my fellow guests. Please, follow me.” He made a welcoming gesture. As his voice boomed, the group of people at the foot of the mountain began ascending the mountain in an orderly manner. Upon arriving at the peak, they were led by a few disciples to the various mountains of the Divinity Sect where they would reside in. After everyone’s accommodation was sorted out, the group gathered at the main hall of the Divinity Sect’s main peak. In the lead was the Divine Holy Emperor, followed by the Welkin Academy’s headmaster, the Infernal Emperor, and Emperor Tamarlan. About thirty people gathered in the hall. In the main seat, the Divine Holy Emperor scanned the crowd and said, “Since it’s now the Divinity Sect’s turn to organize the Grand Tournament, we plan to deviate from the norm and try something n
He had never thought of joining forces with the disciples of the Welkin Academy. Instead, he planned to work with Henry and Delainey. By working together, they might be able to make it to the top three. “James, what are you daydreaming about?” Seeing that James was staring blankly into space, Yoan asked. “Huh?” James collected himself and said, “I-It’s nothing.” Yoan said, “Keep in mind that teamwork is key here. You should cooperate with the disciples of the Welkin Academy.” “Got it.” Though James was reluctant to do so, he could not disobey Yoan. “Alright now, you’re dismissed.” The headmaster waved his hand. Seeing this, the disciples turned to leave. After they left, the headmaster sighed and said, “Our disciples have been competing against each other all this while. As such, it might be a little difficult for them to work together.” Hearing this, the Sect Elders nodded in agreement. After all, they did not have a harmonious relationship with each other as well.
Quintina was exasperated. She had acknowledged James’ strength and only wished to join forces with him. After forming a team with him, she only needed to find another disciple of the Welkin Academy to form a team of three. That way, they should be able to get into the top three. Yet, James was being unappreciative. James looked at Quintina and said, “Don’t misunderstand. I’m not looking down on you. I have a team of my own already. Besides, numbers don’t matter here. The more members you have in your team, the more monsters you’ll have to slaughter.” Hearing this, Quintina took a deep breath and looked him in the eye, asking, “Who are your teammates? Are there other more suitable candidates than me in the Welkin Academy?” James smiled and said, “They aren’t disciples of the academy.” “You…” Hearing that, Quintina was seriously pissed. “Alright now…” James waved slightly and said, “Since you insist, I’ll grudgingly accept you into our team. Together, we’ll aim for the
The deafening roar of monsters reverberated throughout the mountains. “I-Is this Mount Walvern?” Henry glanced at the mountain range before him and looked at James, saying, “We should be able to enter the top three, right?” James smiled faintly and said, “Unless something unexpected comes up, we should be able to enter the top three.” He was confident in Henry, Delainey, and his own strength. Putting aside the fact that Delainey was at the Mage Rank, Henry was at the Immortal Ascension’s Ninth Stair, making him one of the highest-ranked cultivators present. Besides, James’ physical strength was at the middle stage of Immortal Ascension’s Eighth Stair, making him comparable to Henry in strength. Not only that, but he also had many ultimate moves hidden up his sleeves. By working together, they should be able to annihilate even monsters in the Mage Rank. After all, who else would be capable of accomplishing such a feat? That was why James was fully assured that they would be ab
