The Almighty Dragon General

After Zenaide’s fight with James, she learned that James’ physical strength had grown and reached the peak of the Grand
Emperor Rank’s Seventh Heaven.
Upon returning to Mount Heavenly Path, she relayed the newly obtained information to Herschel.
Herschel was slightly taken aback by the news.
Improvements in physical strength were a product of hard work over time. Cultivation, on the other hand, could be raised rapidly
through gaining insight or great comprehension.
“He’s already raised his physical strength to the peak of the Grand Emperor Rank’s Seventh Heaven, huh? You’re quite the
interesting man, James. I’d like to see how much longer you can continue to run from me.”
Herschel smiled faintly.
Now that James’ cultivation rank increased, Herschel could send stronger cultivators after him. He stayed true to his word and
only deployed powerhouses whose cultivation ranks were a maximum of two ranks higher than James’ own. The highest-ranked
men he could send after James were Ninth Heaven Grand Emperors.
However, James had already journeyed deep into Mount Nothingness.
The Londyns were a prominent family from the Realm of Nothingness’ Divine Dimension. Since ancient times, many powerful
family members traveled to Mount Nothingness in search of rare boons.
Therefore, the Londyns were quite familiar with its topography.
The path James had chosen was one that even the Londyn elders would not dare to travel because of the disappearance of one
of their more powerful members during their expedition on this very path. They never heard from him again, and it was evident
that the path was perilous.
Black mist blanketed the inner regions of Mount Nothingness.
Terrifying Demonic Energy was contained in the black mist. It had properties somewhat similar to Dark Power. The power was
capable of corroding a living being’s physical body and soul.
Hadrian, Herbert, and Mia used their powers to protect their bodies and soul while advancing deeper into the terrain of Mount
Nothingness.

James, however, did not share the same concerns.
His physical body was immune to Demonic Energy.
James walked ahead of the three and effortlessly crossed the mountains.
After passing through many mountains, a plain appeared in sight.
The grass in the area was a variety that James had never seen before. Not only were they a strange black color, but they also
grew to a height of about twenty centimeters high and had a faint, dark glow.
A huge stone tablet stood not far ahead and it had some mysterious and ancient inscriptions engraved on it.
James walked over to the stone tablet and inspected the engravings.
His three companions also began to examine the inscriptions.
Hadrian turned to Mia and asked. “Princess Mia, you have a lot more experience than us. Do you recognize these words?”
Mia shook her head in response.
She indeed knew many ancient scripts but could not identify the script that was engraved on the stone tablet.
James had been studying Karma Script recently. It was one of the most mysterious scripts in the universe. It surpassed even the
Elysian characters and the Ancestral Script.
Through his studies of the Karma Script, it enabled James to recognize virtually any script he encountered.
James parted his lips and said, “It says that the area ahead is a restricted area, and living beings shouldn’t proceed beyond this
point.”
“A restricted area? Why is that so?” asked Herbert.
James continued to read the engravings and said, “There’s some more information recorded on the stone tablet. It’s about the
Holy Master of Nothingness.”
The trio immediately showed great interest upon hearing James.

Mia said excitedly, “Please cut to the chase, Mr. Caden.”
James replied, “It’s about the events that happened while the Holy Master of Nothingness ruled this universe. He reigned in a
prosperous era. However, his wicked thoughts left his body and manifested as a living being. As a result, the universe ushered in
a dark age.”
“This era was called the Age of Destruction.
“During the Age of Destruction, the Holy Master of Nothingness escaped. The Dark Lotus Demonic Ancestral Master rose up and
imprisoned the Holy Master of Nothingness in the deepest parts of the Palace of Nothingness. Then, he took over Mount
Heavenly Path and inherited the Master of Nothingness’ position. He ruthlessly massacred those that refused to submit to him.
Therefore, the age he ruled was named the Age of Destruction.”
