James took a long time suppressing the Curse Power in his body.
However, he was clueless as to how much time had passed.
He looked at Nova beside him and asked, “How long has it been since I came to suppress the Curse Power in my body?”
Nova replied, “Three months have passed in the outside world.”
“Huff!” James took a deep breath.
It had already been three months?! He had not even informed Thea and Xainte that he was entering the Celestial Abode.
He had no idea how the situation had progressed after three months.
This time, he successfully suppressed the Curse Power and converted them into some mysterious black inscriptions.
Curse Power was an extraordinary form of energy.
However, his body had been reshaped by the Demonic Lotus. Therefore, he was capable of absorbing any form of energy.
After he suppressed the Curse Power, the force permeated his body and increased his strength.
Previously, he was at the Sage Rank’s Tenth Stage. Now, he had already reached the Sage Rank’s Twelfth Stage, and his
physical strength was also raised to the Sage Rank’s Eleventh Stage.
Although his cultivation rank had improved by two stages, he was still relatively weak. James knew he had a long way more to
go.
However, he firmly believed that he would reach the pinnacle of cultivation within tens of thousands of years.
“I’ll head out first, Nova.”
James did not linger in the Celestial Abode any longer and quickly left.
He reappeared in the outside world.
As soon as he appeared, he spotted Thea and Xainte.
Three months ago, this place was full of cultivators and monsters.
However, there were only Thea and Xainte left in the area.
“James...”
Seeing James, Thea walked over and called out to him.
Xainte also followed after Thea. She glanced at James, wanting to address him as her father but could not muster up the
courage.
However, James did not care about such things.
He looked at Thea and asked, “What’s the situation now, Thea?”
Thea replied, “After you entered the Celestial Abode, the Martial Reverend and the other powerhouses began to treat their
injuries. After they recovered, they left to support the other cultivators engage in fights with monsters in this world.”
James said softly, “I see.”
Thea continued to explain, “According to the plan we’ve come up with, we’ll try to find a way to escape this world while saving
the other cultivators. Then, we’ll request more powerhouses from the outside world to participate in this fight. With our strength, it
might be hard to slaughter the mastermind. Even if we somehow kill him, almost half of the people that entered this world will be
sacrificed.”
She looked at James and asked, “Do you have a better idea?”
James shrugged and said, “I’m only a weakling at the Sage Rank. What better idea could I have?”
In fact, James really did not have any suggestions.
After a brief thought, Thea said, “If that’s the case, let’s join the Martial Reverend’s party first. I can command the monsters that
are being controlled. As long as I show up, the monsters will stop attacking.”
James nodded. “Alright.”
Then, the three left the area and rushed toward the world’s central region.
Along the way, they encountered many cultivators still entangled in fierce fights.
Although three months had passed, many battles were still going on throughout the world.
