Chapter 2088

“No wonder the Celestial Abode disappeared from Mount Bane. Turns out it was with James!”

Delainey looked at James with admiration and said smilingly, “Right now, the Outsiders are guessing

who obtained the Celestial Abode. No one would’ve guessed you were the one who obtained it!”

James said, “The one hundred thousand soldiers are coming in batches, and it should take some time

before they reach Mt. Thunder Pass. Come, I’ll show you around the Celestial Abode first.”

He casually waved his hand, and the Celestial Abode’s gateway appeared. James took a step forward

and entered the Celestial Abode.

The three followed behind him.

After entering through the gateway, they appeared on the mountaintop.

The mountain was huge and full of Empyrean fruits, all of which were excellent tonics. After they

appeared on the mountaintop, they could smell the pleasant smell of the Empyrean fruits. Moreover,

the Empyrean Spiritual Energy in the Celestial Abode was a few times greater than that in the outside

world.

“James, can we pick these fruits?”

Henry had also been to the Celestial Abode. Back then, the abode did not have an owner, and he really

wanted to pick the fruits when he saw the mountain full of them.

“Of course.” James nodded.

Although his rank was relatively new, and he was not entirely in control of some of the Celestial

Abode’s functions, he could still freely pick the fruits.

“Woah!”

Delainey cried out in joy.

“There are so many mysterious fruits that contain powerful energy! These fruits can increase one’s

strength by leaps and bounds!”

James replied proudly, “Yeap.”

The Celestial Abode was his treasure, his ultimate weapon to save humanity.

“Come on. Let’s head into the city. I need to speak to Sophie.”

James led the trio down the mountain.

In the past, there were countless formations down the mountain. One would get killed if they were not

careful. However, the formations disappeared after James became the Celestial Abode’s master.

Soon, they reached the city center.

In the city center, there was a mansion for the city lord.

The City Lord’s Mansion was majestic and extravagant.

“Master.”

When they reached the gate of City Lord’s Mansion, Nova appeared and greeted him respectfully.

“Where’s Sophie?” asked James.

Nova replied, “That girl went to inspect Time Avenue’s Inscription. Master, you sure are generous. You

allowed that girl to read such a precious thing whenever she wants. Her current rank is not enough to

inspect it, and something might happen to her.’

James waved his hand and said, “How would I know?”

“Who said something would happen to me?”

At that moment, a pleasant voice resounded.

Following the sound, Sophie appeared in a white dress.

Nova looked at Sophie and reminded her, “There are many things in the Celestial Abode that you

shouldn’t touch even with the master’s permission. It’s for your own good.”

Sophie stuck out her tongue mischievously and said, “Alright, I understand. I know the boundaries.”

James did not overthink it and entered the City Lord’s Mansion.

In the mansion, he found a place to sit down and rest.

He looked at Sophie, who was following him, and asked, “Ms. Sophie, how do you plan to train the

army I brought?”

She thought for a while and said, “I read a formation from the library chamber previously and thought it

would be perfect for these soldiers. I plan to teach them this formation. However, one hundred

thousand people aren’t enough. We would need four teams, each having at least one hundred

thousand people to perform it. In total, that’ll be four hundred thousand people. Plus, it’ll require four

powerful people to lead it.”

“Four hundred thousand people?”

James frowned slightly.

It would be easy to get four powerful leaders.

However, it would be challenging to get 400,000 people.

Standing aside, Delainey said, “How about I return and get another three hundred thousand people

from the Black Dragon Army?”

“That’ll be the only option for now.” James nodded lightly.
