Chapter 1811

“Secondly, the power of desire.

“What is desire?

“Sky desires to become the greatest in the world. It’s a powerful obsession. When his desirereached the pinnacle, he made a breakthrough into the ninth rank after consuming the power of theDragon Essence. The same goes for your grandfather, Thomas. His ambition is equally great.Besides, he’s shrewd and cunning. However, even with the aid of the Dragon Essence, he onlymanaged to become a Half-Saint. Human desire is terrifying.”

After he spoke, he looked at James and said smilingly, “A man free of ambition like you is incapableof using this method. Hence, only the power of nature remains.”

“Huh?” James asked in confusion, “What is the power of nature?”

“This requires some explanation.” Langston explained, “The power of nature is magical. It is thepower of heaven and earth. Your mind must be cleared of impurities, and your heart must becleansed of all desires. Absorb the power of nature and change your body structure and physicalcapabilities. The human body is like a huge water tank, whereas True Energy is like water. Onceyou reach the peak of the Ninth Stair, you can no longer increase True Energy due to a limitedcapacity. The power of nature, on the other hand, is capable of changing one’s body structure.Think of it as expanding the capacity of the water tank. When your True Energy attains a certainstrength, you can use True Energy to make a breakthrough.”

After he said that, he sighed.

“Back then, I tried gaining insight into the power of nature as well. However, despite decades offutile effort, I couldn’t comprehend anything. In the end, I only managed to cross into the ninth rankby entering King Quavon’s Mausoleum and obtaining the remaining phoenix blood.”

Langston tried explaining the power of nature to James.

James had experienced this. The power of nature, also known as Spiritual Energy, can changeone’s body structure and physical capabilities, thereby increasing one’s True Energy.

After hearing Langston’s explanation, James understood that the path he walked was the right one.However, he now had more questions on his mind.

“Langston, you said you obtained the phoenix blood in King Quavon’s Mausoleum. If that’s thecase, why didn’t King Quavon consume it but instead bury it in his mausoleum more than twothousand years ago?”

“I…”

Langston’s expression turned grim.

“I don’t know. However, after looking through the ancient text, I learned that something greathappened two millenniums ago. It seemed that some powerful force prevented King Quavon fromdoing so.”novelbin

“A powerful force?” James froze before asking, “Who?”

Langston shook his head and said, “I don’t know either. If you’re interested to know, you can ask theOmniscient Deity more about the subject. Since he’s lived longer than me, he should be moreknowledgeable.

Hearing this, James clasped his hands and said, “Thank you, Langston.”

Langston looked at him and asked, “What is your current strength? Have you gained insight into thepower of nature?”

A slight smile crept up on James’ face. Seeing this, Langston understood immediately.

Then, James left alongside Thea.

“Father.” Tyrus looked at Langston.

Langston said with a smile, “He’s young, but he managed to gain great insight into the power ofnature. I believe it’s only a matter of time before he crosses into the ninth rank. His path is theproper one. Everyone else, including me, took a back-door route. Even though we crossed into theninth rank, we spent a lot of time searching for the right path. However, James managed to find iteven before he crossed into the ninth rank.”

“Indeed…” Tyrus sighed. “He’s a brilliant man. All these years, I watched him grow from an innocentyoung man into an experienced commander-in-chief. His heart is magnanimous, and his mind isopen and broad. Perhaps only a man like him can gain insight into the true path of cultivation.”

“Mhm.” Langston nodded and said, “However, I wonder how the Omniscient Deity crossed into theninth rank. Although I’ve heard about him even a millennium ago, I know nothing about his strengthsince I’ve never fought against him in battle. This is the perfect opportunity to witness his truestrength.”
