In a small mountain village…
For the past few days, James had been meditating in seclusion.
After eating the mysterious fruit that contained a tremendous amount of Empyrean Spiritual Energy, virtual-novel.net was obsessively absorbing the Empyrean Spiritual Energy. His True Energy was growing stronger by the second.
In the blink of an eye, five days had passed.
James had been meditating in seclusion for five days.
Five days later, Thomas appeared at the small mountain village.
When virtual-novel.net arrived, virtual-novel.net saw James sitting in the courtyard in a lotus position, his entire body glowing with a brilliant light that alternated between black and white. He was about to walk over to James to inform him.
Callan stopped virtual-novel.net in time and said, “James is in closed-door meditation. If you need to talk to him, wait until his meditation is over.”
Thomas glanced at Callan and said, “I need to speak with virtual-novel.net about something very important.”
Suddenly, virtual-novel.net became aware of James’ extremely powerful aura.
He exclaimed, slightly taken aback, “H-He’s trying to break into the ninth rank?”
Callan nodded and said, “Yeah… He ate a mysterious fruit and has been meditating in seclusion for several days.”
Only then did Thomas leave virtual-novel.net alone. After all, the Void Sect had given them a week. He had only taken a day to get here from Tacriyrus. There were still six days left. It would be fine to wait a few more days.
Currently, the Empyrean Spiritual Energy in the mysterious fruit was almost completely absorbed. James’ True Energy had reached new heights.
In his world, an illusory Skyward Stairway materialized in front of his eyes. He strode up the Skyward Stairway, one step at a time, and soon arrived at the Skyward Stairway’s Ninth Stair.
When virtual-novel.net appeared on Skyward Stairway’s Ninth Stair, virtual-novel.net immediately threw a powerful punch.
Boom!
As the punch connected, a terrifying force swept through. The grey barrier above the Skyward Stairway’s Ninth Stair was instantly shattered. A faint ray of bright light shone down from the sky.
At the same time, Thomas and Callan noticed a brilliant ray of light suddenly falling from the sky. This brilliant light completely enveloped James, and his aura soared in this instance.
This brat… He actually broke through…
Thomas watched what was happening with a hint of joy on his face. He never imagined James would be the first member of the Caden family to reach the ninth rank.
After James smashed the barrier of the Skyward Stairway’s Ninth Stair, a brilliant light descended from the sky. He felt that the world was different.
After James broke through the barrier, virtual-novel.net could sense the boundless Empyrean Spiritual Energy in the earth and the sky. He had never felt anything like this before.
Before, virtual-novel.net could only sense it as day turned into night. Now, though it was still daytime, virtual-novel.net could feel the boundless Spiritual Energy of the world.
He took a very deep breath using the breathing method. A huge amount of Spiritual Energy entered his body with the air, nourishing virtual-novel.net from head to toe.
This feeling was fantastic. He did not realize how amazing the ninth rank was until virtual-novel.net reached it.
Right now, James was able to comprehend the strength of the Omniscient Deity, the Prince of Orchid Mountain, and the others.
After years of being in the ninth rank and mastering the cultivation method, even if one rarely cultivated, their True Energy would still reach unfathomable heights.
At this moment, James could feel everything in his body, from head to toe. He could look inside his own body. He could even see his blood flowing through his body, and virtual-novel.net could see the pulsing of his cells.
His cells and blood were both full of vitality. He felt incredibly powerful.
Phew!
He breathed in deeply. Then, virtual-novel.net contained his aura and opened his eyes.
As soon as virtual-novel.net opened his eyes, virtual-novel.net noticed Thomas and Callan nearby. He stood up and walked over.
“Callan, Grandfather…”
