Chapter 2170

“Mhm. Alright.”

James no longer thought about improving his physical strength after Sophie’s lecture.

When the mysterious energy entered his body, James activated his cultivation method. The energy

entered his body and diffused into his flesh and blood. He refined the energy and converted it into pure

True Energy. From there, James’ True Energy grew rapidly.

His True Energy began to climb higher and higher.

Consequently, James’ cultivation rank also advanced at an astonishing pace.

After soaking in the Energy Pool for a month, James’ cultivation rank had grown considerably.

Currently, he was a Fifth Layer Herculean.

He was very close to reaching the sixth layer.

Once he entered the Sixth Layer, he could break into the Immortal Ascension.

He believed he could easily achieve the Immortal Ascension rank with his body and resources in the

Celestial Abode.

After reaching the Fifth Layer, James had almost absorbed all of the energy from the Energy Pool. With

a leap, he flew out of the Energy Pool and landed nimbly on the pool’s edge.

He stimulated his True Energy and felt it surge through him instantly.

Sensing the powerful True Energy in his body, James’ face lit up with delight.

He could have easily stepped into the Immortal Ascension rank by now if he had not constantly

condensed his True Energy and rank in the past.

Afterward, he dissipated his True Energy and tried to sense the island’s surroundings.

He could sense people in the other Energy Pools focused on absorbing the energies from their

respective pools.

His exceptional physique allowed him to absorb the energy remarkably quickly. He had already finished

absorbing the energy, but others were still in the midst of doing so.

Initially, he wanted to leave earlier and leave for Wrymstead.

However, Marcello was still in the process of absorbing the energy from her Energy Pool.

Marcello acquired the opportunity for him, so it would be inappropriate for him just to leave without

telling her.

After giving it some thought; James decided to wait for a few more days until Marcello was done. Then,

they could depart from the island together.

Since he had nothing to do, he walked through the mountain range, trying his luck in finding high-

quality divine herbs.

Although the Celestial Abode contained countless divine objects, he wanted to give them to the

400,000 soldiers there. Thus, the more divine objects he could obtain, the better.

James walked through the primordial forest. As he stepped through the thick piles of fallen leaves on

the ground, the rustling of the leaves beneath his feet echoed through the forest.

He strolled through the forest and whenever he encountered an obstructed path, he would fly over it.

Before he knew it, he had arrived at the island’s central region.

The three main Energy Pools were located here, and the three powerhouses were focused on

absorbing the energy. Even after a month, the energy within their pools was still very concentrated.

James could not help but feel envious when he saw how much better their pools were.

If he entered the Energy Pools in the central region, his strength would definitely increase

tremendously.

While James observed the Energy Pool from nearby, the person within it sensed his presence.

The person inside the Energy Pool was Xavia.

The white light around her body had dissipated and James could clearly see her face. She was

attractive but had an ice-cold expression.

She glanced in James’ direction.

James felt a powerful force overwhelm him and was knocked back. He vomited a mouthful of blood.

“Such strength…!”

He was shocked.

‘What kind of monstrous strength is this?”

She made him vomit blood with just a glance.

James did not dare to linger any longer and quickly left the area. As he departed, he secretly made a

vow in his heart, ‘Sooner or later, I’ll become as strong as her.’
