Chapter 2027
Now that James was halfway there, it had given him hope.
He crawled up with great difficulty and sat in a lotus position on the ground. As he catalyzed theNovenary Golden Body Siddhi, Empyrean Spiritual Energy entered his body and soothed his pain.
Meanwhile, there was someone besides James. The man had collapsed to the ground and wascovered in blood all over. His bones were shattered, and he had lost the ability to continue.However, unwilling to admit defeat, he pressed on, leaving behind a trace of blood.
When he saw this, James said, “Stop. You’ll lose your life if this continues.”
“I-I won’t give up. Even if I lose my life, I have to pass this barrier and acquire the Celestial Abode.I’ll be the greatest in the world,” the man answered.novelbin
James was shocked by his obsession.
Then, he paid no heed to him but instead focused all his attention on cultivating.
With the help of the powerful pressure, his cultivation speed actually increased. James could clearlysense energy circulating throughout his body.
After cultivating, he stood up once more and advanced ten meters. Then, unable to advance anyfurther, he stopped and continued cultivating.
Just like that, he would stop to cultivate while advancing across the bridge.
In the end, James managed to pass the fourth barrier.
After crossing the stone bridge, the pressure on his shoulders was immediately lifted. Without thepressure, he could feel his body lighten. At that moment, he had the urge to leap into the air.
Then, he clenched his fists as powerful energy came from inside his fists.
“After passing the fourth barrier, my power has increased tremendously. Even if I can’t have theCelestial Abode in the end, I guess this journey is worth it, after all.”
James hurriedly continued on with his challenge, since he had a lot of catching up to do. The Son ofHeaven, Marcello, and a couple of others had already advanced much further than he did.
He turned and looked in front of him.
But then, he had already descended the mountain and was looking at the city before him.
The city was magical. Every building was at least a kilometer in height, and each building radiated amysterious glow. In the distance, he could vaguely see a majestic wall.
After scanning his surroundings, he marched on.
Soon, he arrived at the fifth barrier.
There was a Magic Circle ahead of him. As the Magic Circle was enveloped in a thin mist, he couldnot see what was inside.
James did not hesitate at all and simply stepped into the Magic Circle.
At that moment, he could feel an excruciating pain coming not from his physical body, but rather thatof his soul. The pain was so agonizing that he almost lost consciousness.
However, the pain subsided almost immediately.
Withstanding the agonizing pain, he hurriedly pressed on. In just a few moments, he was out of theMagic Circle. The moment he exited the Magic Circle, the pain disappeared.
“That’s it?”
James turned his head.
The Magic Circle had disappeared without a trace.
Stroking his chin with a puzzled look on his face, he contemplated, ‘This must be a test of the soul.Should I fail to withstand the excruciating pain, I’d be expelled from the Magic Circle and fail thechallenge.”
“Thankfully, I managed to endure the pain.”
James was slightly delighted.
This was already the fifth barrier, and only four remained.
He was getting closer to the finish line.
As long as he could pass the remaining four barriers and obtain the Celestial Spirit, he wouldbecome the owner of this Celestial Abode.
Upon thinking about this, James was motivated. He hurriedly pressed on.
By then, he had arrived at the outskirts of the city, where there was an ancient passageway.
