The Omnipotent Lord sat lazily in the highest seat and responded languidly, “Find them as soon as possible. We must acquire all
the remaining Universe Seeds in an Epoch and induce their formation.”
“Understood.” The Macrocosm Ancestral Gods in the hall nodded.
Suddenly, a guard walked into the hall, knelt on one knee, and said, “Reporting, Sir! My Lord, a human has appeared outside. He
claims to be James Caden and wishes to see you.”
“James?”
The Omnipotent Lord’s nonchalant expression immediately changed. He composed himself, and straightened up before smiling.
“After staying in the Dark World for a few Epochs, he’s finally back.”
After he spoke, the Omnipotent Lord stood up and stretched his muscles.
“I lost to you last time and it’s haunted me ever since. Let’s see how much your cultivation has improved after these few Epochs.”
The Omnipotent Lord ordered, “Let him in.”
“Understood.”
The guard immediately got up and left the main hall.
After waiting outside the Ancestral Holy Site’s mountain gate for a while, the captain of the guards returned and gestured for
James to enter. James rode on the big, black cow and slowly entered the Ancestral Holy Site. After crossing several mountains,
they arrived at Mount Ancestre, which was the Ancestral Holy Site’s main region.
Standing at the foot of the mountain, James raised his head and looked at the massive mountain ahead of him. James parted his
lips and instructed Qiomars, “Wait for me at the mountain foot, Quiomars.”
After speaking, James leaped into the air and flew toward the mountaintop. He arrived atop the mountain almost instantly.
In front of him was a grand and majestic palace. The palace gates were wide open, and many powerhouses could be seen
inside. James strode into the hall holding his hands behind him. After entering the hall, James surveyed the area and noticed a
dozen or so humans.
All of them were relatively strong, and the weakest among them was an Eight-Power Macrocosm Ancestral God.
James thought to himself puzzledly, ‘How did the Omnipotent Lord gather so many powerhouses in just mere Epochs?’
Ultimately, James fixated his gaze on the Omnipotent Lord in the highest seat of the hall. He tried to discern the Omnipotent
Lord’s cultivation rank and discovered that his aura was incredibly strong.
The Omnipotent Lord’s aura had already surpassed a Nine- Power Macrocosm Ancestral God. However, he had not reached the
Acme Rank yet. James was sure of this because he had encountered a real Acmean before.
Although Master Mateo only left behind a trace of his Zen, it had the aura of an Acmean.
Therefore, James knew the Omnipotent Lord was not an Acmean yet. Despite that, his aura was very close to the Acme Rank.
He was likely at the peak of the Macrocosm Ancestral God Rank and had strength similar to Quiomars.
After learning of the Omnipotent Lord’s strength, James was silently relieved. As long as the Omnipotent Lord was not an
Acmean, James was confident he could hand;e the situation.
While James’ was sensing the Omnipotent Lord’s cultivation rank, the other party was also doing the same. However, the
Omnipotent Lord could not detect James’ cultivation rank, and his brows furrowed as a result.
James glanced around the main hall and said candidly,” Hah, I didn’t expect the twelve universes to merge while I was gone for
the past few Epochs. It also seems like many powerhouses have risen up in the Ancestral Holy Site.”
The Omnipotent Lord sat in the highest seat and looked down at James condescendingly.
“I didn’t expect you to return from the Dark World alive, James. Very few can survive after traveling to the depths of the Dark
World.”
James chuckled and asked, “I’m curious how you managed to get so many Eight and Nine-Power Macrocosm Ancestral Gods to
rise in the Ancestral Holy Site in just a few Epochs.”
The Omnipotent Lord answered tersely, “That’s none of your business.”
He feared James in the past but was no longer afraid now. The Omnipotent Lord was confident in his strength, which was almost
at the Acme Rank, and he also had the support of all the powerhouses in the hall.
Even though he could not sense James’ cultivation rank, it did not scare him.
