Seeing the armed warriors, James and Nico exchanged a glance at each other.
James walked toward them.
One of the armed warriors shouted at him, “Stop right there!!!”
His voice was deafening, and James felt his eardrums go numb.
James refrained from moving recklessly and asked, “What’s wrong? Did something happen here? I’m James Caden. I’m friends
with the Elixir Pavilion’s Master.”
The captain said coldly, “Wait here. We’ll go report your visit.”
James did not act rashly either.
The strict defenses outside the Elixir Pavilion gave him a feeling that something must have happened during the ninety thousand
years that he was gone. Moreover, it was definitely a significant event.
Nico, on the other hand, remained silent.
Meanwhile, many powerful powerhouses gathered in the Elixir Residence’s main hall within the Elixir Realm.
Silvester sat in the highest seat while Helvius was beside him.
With a solemn look, Silvester said, “The Sanctuary of Darkness has been growing rapidly and have taken over every other world
except the Elixir Realm. If not for Melinda’s powerful formation, the Elixir Realm might have fallen long ago.”
Many powerhouses were in the hall, but none of them spoke out.
Thea also had a worried look. The Sanctuary of Darkness was not her primary concern. Right now, she had to prioritize finding
the Ancestral God Rank Elixir.
After James’ departure, she tried searching for the Ancestral God Rank Elixirs. However, she had no luck in the past ninety
thousand years.
Moreover, James had not returned after such a long time.
Thea was anxious about whether she could find the Ancestral God Rank Elixir within the limited time to help humanity survive
the impending calamity.
She did not stop cultivating for the past ninety thousand years.
Back then, she was a Quasi-Emperor at the Ninth Tribulation. Right now, she had already become a Second Heaven Grand
Emperor.
Xainte was also impressive. She had stepped into the Quasi Emperor Rank’s Ninth Tribulation and was only one step away from
becoming a Grand Emperor.
“Reporting!”
Just when the hall fell into dead silence, a fully armed warrior walked into the hall.
The warrior had powerful energy and emitted a domineering aura. At a glance, it was evident he was a powerful cultivator that
had fought countless battles and was already a Grand Emperor.
The warrior walked into the hall and said, “Old Master. There are two people from outer space who’ve appeared outside the Elixir
Realm. One of them claims to be James Caden.”
Hearing this, Thea and Xainte immediately stood up.
Silvester’s face also lit up with joy. He rejoiced, “Mr. Caden is back! Let’s go see him!”
With a flash, Silvester disappeared from the hall and appeared outside the Elixir Realm.
In outer space, James was surrounded by warriors. All of them were relatively strong, but they were nothing compared to Nico.
Despite Nico’s overpowering strength, he did not make a move.
Silvester appeared in outer space and noticed James and Nico. He quickly greeted them happily, “You’re finally back, Mr.
Caden!”
After Silvester showed up, Thea, Xainte, Melinda, and the others also followed suit.
“Honey!!!”
“Dad!”
A few voices called out to James.
James approached Thea and asked, “What’s wrong here? Did something happen?”
Thea replied, “Here isn’t the right place to talk. Let’s head into the Elixir Realm first.”
“Alright.” James nodded.
They returned to the Elixir Mansion’s hall within Sky City of the Elixir Pavilion.
Then, Thea recounted all the events that happened in the past ninety thousand years.
After hearing everything, James had a solemn expression. He said, “I didn’t expect the Sanctuary of Darkness to have made
such a bold move in the past ninety thousand years. It’s time for the final decisive battle. If we can’t defeat the Sanctuary of
Darkness, we won’t be able to collect the Ancestral God Rank Elixirs.”
