Thea knew James had numberable priceless treasures, so she was not surprised to hear that.
Her gaze rested on the giant planet before them.
The planet was immense and looked azure blue from a distance.
“Is that the Aqua Realm?” asked Thea.
Nico composed himself and replied, “Correct. That’s the Aqua Realm. I came to this place to train many years ago when I was
still weak. Back then, the Aqua Realm was covered with seawater.”
After speaking, Nico turned to James and said, “It’s rumored the Aqua Realm’s seawater was formed using the Water Genesis.
It’s not just normal seawater, and harbors potent energy.”
“Alright, let’s go have a look.”
James moved through outer space. With a few steps, he arrived right before the Aqua Realm.
He passed through its atmospheric layers and entered the planet, floating right above the land.
Below him was the Aqua Realm’s surface.
He could see some ancient buildings on the ground.
Most of the buildings had collapsed and turned into rubble. Only some of the city walls still stood intact.
There were also various plants that grew on some mountains.
As soon as Nico appeared, he observed the land below and said, “This place used to be full of seawater and was named the
Aqua Realm. From my understanding, there shouldn’t be any creatures or plants here. Seeing the fact that there are growing
plants, we can assume the seawater has been gone for quite a while.”
James agreed with Nico’s observations.
In the blink of an eye, he appeared on the ground below.
He stood on a mountain and surveyed his surroundings.
There were many plants that he had never seen before. Additionally, there were also a few short trees.
James lightly flicked his wrist, and one of the tree trunks shattered instantly.
He picked up the wood shards and examined them.
After determining the tree’s age, James had a better idea of what had happened.
James said softly, “If the Sanctuary of Darkness is responsible for the abnormality on this planet, then they must have come to
the Aqua Realm and gotten rid of the water here after their failed attack on the Elixir Pavilion.”
Thea looked at James in shock and asked. “Did they come here looking for the sealed Heaven’s Adjudicator on this planet?”
James shook his head hesitantly.
He was unsure whether the seawater’s disappearance had anything to do with the Sanctuary of Darkness or if the Heaven’s
Adjudicator was really sealed on this planet.
James turned to Nico and asked. “Is the lore you told us before reliable?”
Nico shook his head.
“I’m not certain. These events happened too far back. Knowledge of them was from information recorded in ancient books. No
one really knows how true it is. The Primeval Age is too far in the past, and almost everyone who survived that age is long gone.”
James said solemnly, “If the Sanctuary of Darkness is responsible for this, we’d be in quite the predicament.”
James knew he would have to stop the Sanctuary of Darkness if they were the culprits.
However, Emperor Jabari was deep in slumber. Without Emperor Jabari’s help, James was rather weak.
To stop the Sanctuary of Darkness, relying on Nico’s strength alone would be insufficient.
James had to notify Silvester in the Elixir Realm about the situation.
Without hesitation, James sat in a lotus position and activated the Secret Art Silvester taught him during his stay in the Elixir
Pavilion. It was a Secret Art that could be used to communicate with Silvester, who was a great distance from them.
“What’s the matter, Mr. Caden?”
A voice resounded.
James felt it echo in his ear, but the voice sounded like it was far away.
After establishing the connection, James immediately said, “Have you heard about the abnormality in the Aqua Realm?”
