Chapter 2174

James said, “It’s been a while since the First Calamity struck the Earth. However, there hasn’t been any

providence. I want to enter the Celestial Abode to train before the providence comes so I’ll be able to

obtain it.”

James was relatively weak compared to other top powerhouses such as Jace, Yerick, and the rest.

With his current strength, competing with them for the providence would be impossible.

However, the providence could not be obtained through the use of strength alone. It also required a

little bit of luck.

James knew he was weaker than them and wanted to train harder.

“I’ll come with you,” said Thea.

Although she was strong amongst Earth’s martial artists, she could not measure up to the cultivators

from the other realms.

Thea was already a Herculean, and with the Four-Quadrant Art, she could kill powerhouses at the

Immortal Ascension. However, her strength was far from enough.

She could no longer keep up with the Outsiders. Hence, she wanted to continue training for a while.

“Alright.”

James held Thea’s hand and said, “Let’s train and increase our strength together. Then, we’ll protect

the world and lead the humans of the Earth to rise in the apocalypse. We’ll become a force that the

Three Thousand Worlds fear.”

James had great ambitions.

He not only wanted to protect the Earth’s humans but also to lead a revolution so they could. become a

strong existence that even the Orthodox factions of the Three Thousand Worlds would dread.

Even though he knew it would take a long time to achieve such a feat, he did not want to give

After a brief chat, Thea headed into the Celestial Abode to train.

Meanwhile, James headed to Bane City.

He was unsure of the catastrophe’s nature, so he wanted to find that out in Bane City. A long time had

passed, so some of the cultivators from the Three Thousand Worlds should already know something

about it.

Soon, he arrived on Mount Bane, where Bane City was located.

Boom!

Before he entered the city, a dazzling light ray burst out on Mount Bane. The light ray soared into the

sky. Shortly afterward, magical light rays shot up from different regions across the Earth.

With the appearance of the light rays, some unknown mountains appeared across the Earth. They

contained concentrated amounts of Empyrean Spiritual Energy.

The Empyrean Spiritual Energy quickly fused with the Earth’s atmosphere.

The Earth’s Empyrean Spiritual Energy gradually became stronger.

“What happened?”

“What are these lights?”

“Latest news from our station! According to the satellite images we’ve obtained, many islands,

mountains, and even potholes have appeared in different regions of the Earth.” News concerning the

phenomenon was broadcasted internationally.

With the emergence of natural disasters, countries worldwide announced the arrival of the doomsday

apocalypse.

The surviving humans throughout the world had already adapted to the changing circumstances. The

new emergence of unknown areas only caused some surprises. The public did not show restlessness

or panic.

At that moment, James was also puzzled.

‘The seal hasn’t opened yet. Why are so many unknown regions already showing up?”

Meanwhile, the Outsiders in City Bane became incredibly excited.

“The providence is finally here!”

“Before the seal opens, Four Calamities and Four Providences will befall the Earth. The first providence

will be mine!”

“Haha! After so long, it’s finally here!”

Some Outsiders, who were confident in their strength, were excited as if they were bound to obtain the

boon that was about to appear.

“James, the providence has appeared.”

Sophie’s voice sounded in James’ mind.

Hearing this, James’ heart skipped a beat. He asked, “It’s here? So soon?”
