The Protector had informed the Demon Race of this matter using arcane art. However, the Demon Race was divided into many clans. The strongest among them was the Hadean Clan, whereas the clan Marcello was in was the Azurean Clan. Since James swaggered around using the Azurean Clan’s token in front of the Hadean Clan, he would have to pay for this insult. “Find him even if you have to comb through every nook and canny of the rubble.” Then, many began searching around for James. However, no matter how hard they tried, they could not find him. Both the Protector and Marquis knew that James must be here somewhere. So, they stood in mid-air and performed terrifying arcane arts, bombarding the area relentlessly for ten days before stopping. Meanwhile, James was sipping wine in the Celestial Abode. Sensing that the bombardment outside had died down, he smiled faintly and said, “Looks like the Demon Race is out of patience.” Henry asked, “When will they leave then?” Holding the
James believed this to be a likely scenario. That was because Lucifer told him that it was only with his father’s acknowledgment that James’ soul managed to merge flawlessly with his physical body. So, there was no way Lucifer wanted to go after his life. This made the Protector and Marquis the prime suspects. However, this no longer had anything to do with James. Now that the Ancient Realm was about to be overrun by the Demon Race, he would not remain here any longer. In fact, staying here was much more dangerous than returning to Earth. James headed to the mountain outside the city. There, tens of thousands of cultivators gathered. There were originally 100,000 of them, but many perished at Mount Walvern, and some were implicated in the battle at the Divinity Sect. So, only approximately 50,000 of them remained. Seeing James approach them, they stood up. James arrived at the mountain’s peak and looked at them, narrating the chain of events that unfolded. “This is basicall
He no longer cared about revealing the secret of the Infinity Steles. Besides, even if word spreads, he was no longer afraid of anything. Once he returned to Earth, there would be no superpowers there. With his strength, he could easily fight against the cultivators of the Three-Thousand Worlds. “Y-You…?!” Quintina was stunned. As the daughter of the greatest figure in the Ancient Realm, she knew that the Four Calamities would appear on Earth, with each followed by a providence. She was shocked. She never expected that the man before him would be the one who obtained the First Calamity’s providence on Earth. “No wonder you’re this impressive…” She murmured. James’ strength was simply unbelievable. When he first arrived at the Ancient Realm, he was weak and insignificant. However, before long, he was able to withstand Hayden Salvatore’s moves. Then, not even Harold at his full strength could scratch him. This cultivation speed was simply unimaginable for her. Even though she
James appeared at the Divinity Sect, which had been reduced to a pile of rubble. Then, the Celestial Abode returned to being a ring on his finger once more. As he was worried that the Demon Race had not left, he scanned his surroundings carefully and proceeded with caution. As expected, there was a group of men in black robes stationed outside the rubble. He changed directions. However, no matter where he went, he realized that the entire place had been surrounded by the Demon Race. He had no way out. The Protector must have determined that he had remained hidden in the rubble. However, they could not find him after such a long time. That was why they simply cordoned off the area. “What should I do?” Pensive, James sat on the ground below a huge rock. At that moment, the sound of footsteps could be heard. Some members of the Demon Race were patrolling the area. James suppressed his aura and concealed himself. The moment he appeared, he would be relentlessly pursued by
The energy enveloped him, and he disappeared without a trace. James could feel his vision blur. When he reappeared, he had arrived at an unknown place. The pile of rubble had vanished, only to be replaced by picturesque scenery. Looking at the mountains and rivers before him, James breathed a sigh of relief and murmured, “Finally, I’ve left the Divinity Sect. Now that so much time has passed, I wonder if the Demon Race has made a move against the Welkin Academy and the Ancient Clan.” “Hmm… I wonder how Melany is doing at the Welkin Academy…” At that moment, he thought of Melany, the woman who saved him when he first arrived at the Ancient Realm. He planned to head over to the Welkin Academy for now to have a look. Then, he hurriedly left and headed in the direction of the Welkin Academy. He traveled for a few days. After completely leaving the region of the Divinity Sect, he opened the Celestial Abode and released everyone inside. “You are safe now. Return to wherever y
Quintina had strongly requested it, so James had no choice but to let her into the Celestial Abode.Then, James turned around and left. After determining the direction, he moved forward quickly.His appearance had already been leaked. If he walked around in the Ancient Realm like this, his whereabouts might be discovered. So, he made a mask.It was a silver-colored mask that obscured half of his face. Only the bottom half of his face was visible.A day later, James appeared in a city. Since he was unfamiliar with the Ancient Realm, he needed to purchase a map in order to locate the Welkin Academy.Even though he was currently a cultivator, he still needed to eat. It was a habit he had picked up on Earth. After not eating for a while, his heart felt empty, as if he had lost something.The city in the Ancient Realm was quite prosperous. There was a lot of foot traffic.In a restaurant in the city, a man in a black robe and a half-silver mask was savoring some delectable fare slowl
“Wait.”The warrior in the lead put away the long sword he was holding, reached out, and some symbols appeared on his palm. Immediately after, a light beam of True Energy shot up into the clouds.James was aware that he was informing the senior authorities of the Welkin Academy.He waited patiently.After about ten minutes of waiting, several people came flying in from the distance.These people were fast. They were far away, but in the blink of an eye, they appeared in Moonlit City.James saw them as well. They were Farley Gideon, the headmaster, and his master.He walked over and greeted them, “Master, Headmaster, Mr. Gideon.”Farley appeared in front of James and asked, “James, you’re finally back. Where’s Quintina?”James did not try to hide anything from these people. He took the ring off his finger, and it transformed into the Celestial Abode. The Celestial Abode grew larger and larger. Then he spoke with Sophie and requested that she let Quintina out.Everyone present
The Welkin Academy had already made the necessary arrangements for its disciples.The people who remained at Welkin Academy were all powerful cultivators. These cultivators came from all over the world, not just Welkin Academy.Now that the Ancient Realm was about to fall into chaos, the headmaster and the others could no longer care about the Dragon Abyss. Instead, they gave James the token to unlock the Dragon Abyss.The headmaster said, “The Dragon Abyss can only be accessed once every fifty years. When it’s time to unlock it, the token is required. If the Dragon Abyss is not opened during that time, there will be a wait of fifty years before it can be opened again. According to my calculations, the time has come to unlock the Dragon Abyss. There’s still a month before it closes. You can still make it if you hurry now. If the time has passed, you won’t be able to open it even with the token.”James did not object and immediately responded, “Okay. If that’s the case, I’ll head ov
