Chapter 2025

James was not concerned about his temporary setback.

He already had a cultivation plan in mind. In his opinion, he simply had to try repeatedly to cultivatehis physical body. Sooner or later, he would surely pass the third barrier.

Even if he did not obtain the Celestial Abode in the end, he would gain tremendously by improvinghis strength.

After pausing for a brief respite, he charged into the golem formation once more. This time, hecame here not to pass the barrier in mind, but rather to cultivate his physical body.

Soon, he arrived at the 200-meter mark.

By then, the golems’ attack speed had increased so drastically that James could no longer keep up.In a short amount of time, he suffered many wounds.

The golems’ stone swords were not sharp and could not inflict any external injuries. However, theirforce was great, and James collapsed to the ground repeatedly. Just like that, with his physical bodyalone, he managed to press on for another hundred meters.

After arriving at the 300-meter mark, the golems’ speed and strength increased once more. Unableto continue further, James could only retreat from the golem formation.

He then sat in a lotus position on the ground and absorbed Empyrean Spiritual Energy, catalyzingthe Novenary Golden Body Siddhi to nourish his physical body. Soon, the injuries on his bodyrecovered, and his strength only increased slightly.

Then, he continued trying.

This went on for three months.novelbin

Over the past three months, more and more were gathered by the third barrier. There were nowapproximately 1000 of them.

However, not many managed to pass the barrier. Only around a hundred managed to accomplishthat.

With the beatings over the past few months, James’ body grew increasingly stronger, and hisreaction speed improved. Now, his body was capable of instinctively dodging attacks upon sensinga looming threat.

Three months later, James made another attempt. Like an agile fish in the water, he darted aroundthe formation.

Soon, he reached the 400-meter mark.

By the time he arrived at the 400-meter mark, he was unscathed. However, the golems were nowas quick as lightning. However, after three months of cultivation, his physical body had strengthenedto the point where he could dodge the attacks flawlessly.

As he reached the 450-meter mark, he suffered an injury. However, he paid no heed to the injury.Summoning all his strength, he charged toward the exit. In the end, he successfully passed the thirdbarrier.

Once James passed the third barrier, he panted. At that moment, he was covered in bruises all overhis body. However, they rejuvenated at a rapid pace. Soon, his body was completely unscathed.

Standing up, he turned to look at the golem formation behind him.

Then, he took a deep breath.

“I finally passed the third barrier after three months of hard work. However, there are six barriersleft. I wonder where the Son of Heaven and Marcello are at now.”

Though James did not know where they currently were, he knew that they had yet to pass all ninebarriers and obtain the Celestial Spirit. After all, if that came to pass, everyone else would lose theright to continue the challenge. Since the challenge was still ongoing, this meant that no one hadbeen able to pass the ninth barrier.

James pressed on.

Soon, he arrived at the foot of a mountain.

There was a river by the foot of the mountain. Its water was crystal-clear, and there were manyfishes swimming freely inside. There was also a bridge a hundred meters long over the river.

At that moment, many people were crossing the bridge with great difficulty. Some had only justbegun crossing, while others were already halfway across.

As James approached the bridge, he murmured, “Is this the fourth barrier?”
