Chapter 4217

That was because Dolph had not made a move for a very long time.

James knew nothing about Youri’s plans for now. However, he could only take one step at a time. Over

the next couple of years, he remained inside Mount Doom.

As the date of the gathering inched closer and closer, more and more powerful individuals gathered in

the Doom Realm. Not only were the Ten Great Races present but there were even other hidden races.

Though they were not in the Ten Great Races, they had Acmeans among their ranks. Apart from that,

the Quasi Acmeans of all races had gathered here. The Quasi Acmeans of today will be the pillars of

the Greater Realms of tomorrow. Once they crossed into the Acme Rank, they would emerge as a

force to be reckoned with.

Time passed.

In the blink of an eye, there were only three months left till the gathering.

At the back of the spiritual mountain where the Great Elder resided…

Youri was sitting in a lotus position. He was old, and his pulse was weak. However, beneath his elderly

surface, there was an explosive power hidden. At that moment, he radiated a bizarre-looking halo.

“What a shame…”

After some time, he stopped cultivating.

“If I could obtain the Blithe Omniscience, I would be invincible.”

Hirah Dalibor the Grand Patriarch’s hypothesis was correct—Youri was already at the Omniscience

Path’s Ninth Stage. During the event at the Cloud Race, he had secretly gathered materials in

preparation for the breakthrough of the Ninth Stage. Just as he was contemplating ways of obtaining

the keys in the possession of other races, word of his appearance at the Cloud Race spread like

wildfire. Then came the Soul Race. This troubled him deeply. The living being behind this had foiled his

plans, and he wished he could tear the perpetrator to pieces.

“Great Elder.”

A middle-aged man appeared. He was brutish and had blue hair. He was Youri’s confidant and had

been following Youri since the Primordial Realm’s age. His name was Qimat Dalibor, and he was a

powerful individual who concealed his strength.

Qimat said, “At the moment, powerful figures from all over the Greater Realms have gathered. The

gathering is about to begin. The Grand Patriarch, Patriarch, and everyone else is waiting for you to

provide an explanation.”

Youri glared at Qimat, who shivered in fear and unconsciously staggered backward. Youri slowly stood

up, and his face darkened as he said coldly, “Explanation? How? I wish the Cloud

Race and the Soul Race could offer me an explanation as well!”

Youri was livid. News of his Omniscience Path’s Ninth Stage must not be leaked. That was because

the Ten Great Races had come to an agreement after the war against the Human Race. No living

being of any race is allowed to cultivate the Omniscience Path. Otherwise, he will be annihilated. That

was why word of his search for herbs to allow him to reach the Ninth Stage must never be leaked.

However, that would mean he could not explain where he was during the Cloud Race’s event. All this

while, Youri had been thinking of ways to resolve this. However, nothing came to mind. He was

beginning to panic.
