Chapter 3527

James’ body fell backward for some distance before slamming hard into the ground.

Thump! The impact from his fall was so large that the earth began to crack. The cracks extended

continuously. Thankfully, this was in Mount Heavenly Path where the Macrocosm Ancestral God could

regulate any sort of immense power, making sure that no damage is too great for Mount Heavenly

Path.

All of a sudden, all of the cracks disappeared as if they were never there before. Dead silence echoed

across the void, even though millions of living beings were present.

All of them knew the extent of James’ capability. From the moment he left the Callahan family, he

defeated the thirtieth figure on the Martial Ranking. His rank and power have ascended ever since, yet

he was so easily defeated by the second runner-up on the Ranking. This just goes to show how big is

the difference in capacity between number third and number thirtieth of the ranking.

Back at Herschel Palace of Mount Heavenly Path, Herschel could not suppress his giggle. He took a

look at Thea, and asked, “Being an intelligent woman such as yourself and someone at the top ten

powerful figures in the universe, I’m sure you’re able to see how strong Gutierre is. Would you be

willing to suppress your rank at the Ninth Heaven Grand Emperor Rank to fight against Gutierre?”

Thea shook her head slightly. While she was indeed a rare gem herself, she would not be able to beat

Gutierre if she suppressed her rank.

“I’ve long heard of how legendary the top three of the Martial Ranking are. Now that I’ve seen it for

myself, the rumors have merely affirmed themselves,” she spoke softly. She was, in fact, worried about

James. Thea looked at Sienna, who had a worried expression on her face as well. At this very moment,

she felt like she was at fault. If James had not come to Mount Heavenly Path for the marriage, he

would certainly be able to survive the stipulated time limit using his tactics. Yet, it was she who led

James into this catastrophe, putting not only him but also Sienna in danger.

Outside of Mount Heavenly Path, James stood up from the ground, wiping off the fresh blood dripping

from the edge of his mouth. Then, he summoned the Life Path. The Life Path’s energy came like

waves, recovering all of his inner injuries. He mobilized his joints and a smile appeared on his face.

“How strong, how very strong,” he said as he looked at Gutierre, “Among all of the opponents I’ve met

thus far, you’re probably the most frightening one.”

Gutierre displayed his appalling power, but this only triggered James’ desire for more battle.

“Come,” James roared.

“As you wish,” Gutierre answered coldly.

All of a sudden, he appeared in front of James at a speed so rapid that James, who was standing in the

Space Path, could not sense Gutierre’s tracks. Gripping his fists, Gutierre then gave James a blow in

the chest. This strike encapsulated immense energy, so much so that the impact caused his chest to

sink.

Gutierre did not give James an opportunity to catch his breath. He continuously hit James hundreds

and thousands of times. Each strike was faster than the one before, and James had absolutely no time

to react. Those strikes caused him thousands and hundreds of inner injuries.

Finally, Gutierre appeared on top of James’ head. With a wave of the hand, all Paths’ power gathered

together, forming a blue power ball, descending head-on onto James. James’ body fell from the sky

upon impact.

Thump! A bottomless pit appeared on the ground, spurring up a sky full of dust.
