Chapter 1570

James moved with blinding speed.

Tobias was unable to counter his attack.

James was too strong.

His strength was enough to cause Tobias to vomit blood.

Everyone was shocked to see James attack Tobias.

Tobias’ strength was public knowledge and he had become one of the most terrifying existences in Sol.

There were not many people who could stand against him in Sol.

Moreover, it was rumored that Tobias had absorbed James’ True Energy. It had only been slightly over

half a month since it happened. Everyone was confused as to how James had regained his strength.

In actuality, James’ speed was not that much faster than Tobias’.

James’ current rank was at the borderline of the Skyward Stair’s Sixth Stair.

Tobias had also ascended the Fifth Stair.

There was not much of a difference between their ranks.

However, Tobias was careless.

At that moment, he only expected that Thea would be a threat to him and never thought that James’

strength had recovered. What’s more, he never expected James to be stronger than before.

He was injured because of his blunder.

Tobias almost crashed into the ground.

However, he righted himself and wiped the blood off the corner of his lips. He tightly held on to his

broken sword and snarled, “Die!!!”

After shouting, he lunged at James.

He raised the broken sword in his hand and aimed it at James.

Tobias was attacking at his greatest speed.

He appeared in front of James instantly and aimed his broken sword at James’ vital points.

Before the broken sword struck James, Sword Energy had materialized.

The ground in front of James crumbled.

Boom!

The rocks around James could not withstand the intense force from the Sword Energy and exploded,

causing the rubble to be tossed into the air.

At that moment, the skin of James’ body took on a bronze color.

When his skin changed, an Energy Wall formed on his body’s surface. The wall emitted a blinding light

and seemed to be about five centimeters thick.

This was the ultimate manifestation of the Invincible Body Siddhi’s powers.

The higher one’s cultivation, the stronger the Invincible Body Siddhi.

James had ascended to the peak of the Fifth Stair and was approaching the Sixth Stair. Moreover, his

True Nine Ordeals Energy was unrivaled.

His True Energy also took the form of True Heavenly Yang Energy.

Previously, his Energy Wall was in its initial stage when he reached the eighth rank.

Now, his Energy Wall was about five centimeters thick.

Clank!!!

Tobias’ sword slashed at the copper-colored Energy Wall.

Clank! Clank! Clank!

The remnants of the sword broke down further as it continued to collide with the Energy Wall.

Tobias’ dropped his sword hilt and thrust his palm at James.

A terrifying force swept forward and slammed into the copper-colored Energy Wall.

Unfortunately, his attacks did not cause any damage to James. However, he himself was blasted back by

the recoil of the impact.

His hand felt numb and like it was about to break.

“What the hell is this strength…?”

Tobias’ blood ran cold.

He had ascended the Fifth Stair of the Skyward Stairway. However, not only could he not put a scratch

on James after going all out, but the force jolted his body, sending large gushes of blood out of his throat.

“W-What kind of martial art technique is that? It’s absurd.”

“James is invincible.”

“With such defenses, no one will be capable of putting a dent in his bronze body.”

Those watching the battle from afar were shocked.

Thomas had a satisfied smirk on his face as he watched the battle unfold. He smiled and murmured,

“The Invincible Body Siddhi is a formidable technique. No wonder it’s considered the martial art

technique with the best defensive power for thousands of years. I wonder if James’ Invincible Body

Siddhi has a greater defense or if Thea’s Murderous Energy has a more destructive strength.”

Callan sighed in relief while watching the battle. He muttered softly, “It seems James must have had

another great encounter in the past half month. His strength has improved significantly, and there aren’t

many people who can stand as his equal.”

He was shocked by the strength James had displayed in the fight.

At that moment, Callan considered himself inferior to James.

He might be unable to defeat James even if he duplicated himself.

Tobias was still going all out on the battlefield but could not hurt James.

He knew James’ current strength was nothing short of powerful.

In addition, Thea, who was beside him, also had strength that was on par with his own.

He would surely take a grievous injury if he continued the fight.

Tobias had practiced the Great Law of Absorption and as such had unlocked much of his potential. As

long as he remained hidden and continued to absorb other people’s energy, he would become the

greatest martial artist sooner or later.

Right then, he considered fleeing the battle.
