Chapter 2157

Sophie explained that she could not directly help James kill his enemies. Since she held a significant

rank, her every action would have great consequences.

Everything she did would result in a chain reaction. The Karma brought about by these consequences

would be considerable, she would be able to bear the burden of some of it but not all.

James was very interested in the topic.

However, Sophie refused to explain further. She simply said he was still lacking in many aspects, and

as such, he did not need to know about it yet.

James had no choice but to give up for the time being.

He looked at Sophie, dressed in white, and asked curiously, “Ms. Sophie, what is your current rank?

How strong are you?”

Sophie responded with a smile but did not answer James’ question.

“What do you mean?” James frowned.

Sophie replied, “I’ve told you many times. There’s no need for you to understand these things. right

now. When your strength improves, you’ll naturally understand everything.”

After speaking, she scanned and sensed her surroundings.

After a while, she frowned and said, “What an extraordinary formation. The person who arranged this

formation has to be very powerful. Even if Emperor Jabari were here today in person, it would take a

long time for him to break this formation, let alone me.”

James asked solemnly, “Then, what should we do?”

Sophie’s furrowed brows gradually relaxed. Then, she said with a smile, “Although you can’t get the

core item inside the formation for now, the organism that Nova mentioned is in the outermost periphery

of the formation. Although it’s still protected within the formation, dealing with it is a piece of cake.”

James could not help asking, “What is this organism?”

Sophie thought for a while and said, “I’m not sure. It might be the offspring of the previous

powerhouse’s pets. Let’s go check it out.”

After speaking, Sophie walked off.

James followed behind her.

After walking for a while, Sophie took the initiative to hold James’ hand.

“What’re you doing, Ms. Sophie?” James was slightly nervous.

Sophie scolded him, “Don’t get the wrong idea. This place is full of magic, and if I don’t hold onto you,

you won’t get through the formation even if you spent your entire lifetime trying.”

“Oh.”

Only then did James heave a sigh in relief.

Sophie dragged him behind her and kept walking forward.

They continued deeper into the depths of the grotto.

During this period, Sophie performed a mysterious gesture and broke through a few of the simple

formations.

Although the formations were simple to Sophie, they were extremely intricate and hard to decipher for

James.

After half an hour in the grotto, the two arrived at a stone house.

Sophie stopped and looked at the stone house before, saying, “I can sense the powerful energy that

Nova sensed coming from inside.”

“Then what’re you waiting for? Hurry up and break into it,” James said impatiently.

Sophie looked around for a while, then slightly backed away. She leaped several meters into the air,

and a mysterious symbol appeared in her hand. The bizarre symbols materialized one by one and

disappeared into the surrounding area.

Invisible ripples appeared around them.

Ten seconds later, a stone door appeared.

Sophie descended to the ground, clapped her hands together, and said with a smile, “Okay, it’s done.

Let’s go inside and have a look.”

She took the lead and walked into the stone house.
