Sophie did not figure out how to resolve the Second Calamity, but she did gather some information.In ancient times, humans did something that was against the Heavenly Path. As a result, humans were no longer the wisest of all creatures, and the Heavenly Path stopped protecting humans.However, she still had no idea what exactly humans had done in the distant past.“Is there really no way to put an end to the Second Calamity on Earth?” asked James.Sophie said, “I don’t know about that. However, there is always a way. A solution can always be found. Try not to worry too much. Everything has been predetermined. Take it one step at a time.”After saying that, Sophie stopped talking.“James,” Lucifer’s voice rang out again.James returned from his thoughts and looked at him.Lucifer said, “You were able to get here. That means you have the token to the Dragon Abyss. Open the Dragon Abyss now. I want to go inside, find the Dragon Vein, and transplant it into my body.”Quintina cou
Among them, the energy in the center was the strongest, while the others were slightly weaker.James did not hesitate and walked right over to the center.There was a rock there.The rock was not particularly large. There was only enough room for one person to sit cross-legged on the rock. The rock had a few small holes in it. White energies were emitted from the small holes. The energies shot into the clouds, forming a light beam.He walked over and sat in a lotus position on the rock without hesitation.As soon as he sat down, energy began to enter his body through all of his pores. He sensed a flood of energy flowing into him.Without hesitation, he invoked Novenary Golden Body Siddhi and began to absorb the energy, transforming it into his own True Energy.His rank had reached the Immortal Ascension Fifth Stair. As his rank advanced, more and more energy would be required to raise his rank again.James began another cycle of cultivation. His True Energy was growing by the s
The Dragon Energy from the Dragon Vein was extremely potent. However, James’ rank had risen to the Immortal Ascension Fifth Stair. If he wanted to make another breakthrough, he would need an enormous amount of energy.Even though he had Novenary Golden Body Siddhi and was fast at absorbing and refining energy, he would need half a year to reach the Immortal Ascension Sixth Stair at his current speed.Moreover, this was a situation with sufficient energy. He also needed to compress his rank and ensure that he reached the extreme at each rank. This made it difficult for him to reach the Immortal Ascension Sixth Stair.He forgot everything and concentrated solely on cultivating.In the blink of an eye, half a year had passed.During this half-year of cultivation, James’ rank had reached the peak of the Immortal Ascension Fifth Stair. He was one step away from entering the Immortal Ascension Sixth Stair. Nonetheless, he chose to compact his rank.He forcibly compressed the Immortal A
Xozarth let out a deep sigh and said, “He is the son of the Demon Emperor. When the Demon Emperor died, he sealed him away in the Ancient Realm. I was aware of his existence. I just didn’t expect him to come here right after being resurrected with the intention of moving the Dragon Vein of this place.”James was well aware that he was talking about Lucifer. He asked, “Will moving the Dragon Vein have any impact on this place?”Xozarth explained, “The Dragon Vein at this location is the core of the Ancient Realm. Thousands upon thousands of ley lines in the Ancient Realm all originate from this Dragon Vein. Once the Dragon Vein is gone, the other ley lines will gradually wither.“The Spiritual Energy of the Ancient Realm will also gradually fade away, eventually turning it into a dead realm.”After hearing that, James furrowed his brow and said, “Is it that serious?”Xozarth nodded and said, “However, these are no longer relevant because Earth’s Primordial Energy will recover and t
James was stunned. The Dragon Race’s ancestor must be a transcendent existence as a being who was a powerhouse from the Dragon Race’s Primordial Age. As far as James knew, the Grand Emperor was the highest cultivation rank one could reach.Therefore, he concluded the Dragon Race’s ancestor was undoubtedly a Grand Emperor.James looked at Xozarth and said bashfully, “So you’re saying, I’m lucky to have stumbled upon it?”No wonder Sophie warned him that he would miss out on many great things if he were to leave.She was referring to the legacy of a Grand Emperor, including the transcendent dragon bone.Quintina looked at Xozarth and asked, “Sir, I’m guessing that you’re rather strong. I’ve met Lucifer previously. Although he was born with great potential, he isn’t that formidable right now. You should be capable of preventing him from taking the Dragon Vein.”Xozarth knit his brows together.“It’s not as simple as you think. Have you ever heard of Ancient Supernatural Powers?”
James could see the dazzling golden light coming from a bone. It was relatively small and golden in color with some mysterious symbols slithering around its surface.These symbols were constantly changing as if mimicking the Milky Way. In just a short while, the symbols had transformed more than thousands of times.With a puzzled expression, James stammered, “I-Is this the dragon bone?”Xozarth nodded and said, “Yeap, this is the dragon bone left behind by the Ancestral Dragon. The inscription on it contains the Ancestral Dragon’s entire legacy. It’s a treasure that the strong can only dream of obtaining.“This bone belongs to the Ancestral Dragon. It’s almost indestructible.“It’s very extraordinary and needs strong energy to sustain it. Without energy, it will soon wither away. Once that happens, the inscriptions within the bone will also vanish with it.“I’ll transplant the dragon bone into your body. You should be able to keep it alive for a long time with the Demonic Energy
Xozarth left after he transplanted the dragon bone into James’ body.James did not hang around either and quickly left the underground area, resurfacing back on the island. Immediately after, he let Henry, Delainey, the Blithe King, and Quintina out of the Celestial Abode.“How did it go, James?”Henry promptly asked as soon as he got out. Quintina also looked at James, curious about what had happened with the dragon bone.James nodded and said, “Mhm, everything went well. The dragon bone has been successfully grafted into my body.”Delainey asked, “What are you planning next, James?”James thought about it for a while.Initially, he wanted to cultivate in the Ancient Realm and return to Earth after amassing enough strength.However, the situation in the Ancient Realm was chaotic and not an ideal place to cultivate peacefully. The Ancient Realm was now more dangerous than Earth.James said, “I plan to return to Earth. The Second Calamity has befallen the Earth, and the Beast
He secretly observed the Callahans and saw that they were doing well. Thea seemed like she was not in Cansington which was something he expected. He guessed that she was in Wrymstead. He left Sol and rushed to Wrymstead.In the meantime, he also logged into the Martial Arts Forum to apprise himself of the situation on Earth for the past two years.He learned that no significant events happened in the past two years and things were relatively peaceful. However, more Outsiders appeared on Earth at this time. Some powerhouses from the Three Thousand Worlds even resorted to using some tricks to cross into Earth. From what James knew, the most powerful person on Earth was at the Sage Rank, and there were multiple people also in this rank.One of them was the Divinity Sect’s elder, Yuvaan.Additionally, James learned that the Second Calamity had already taken place.The Second Calamity was dubbed the Calamity of Beasts.While the earth’s humanity faced this disaster, it was the Outsi
