Chapter 2169

Just like that, James obtained a spot to enter one of the island’s Energy Pools to improve hisphysique without lifting a finger.

James followed them onto the island, which was an unknown Sealed Realm that had surfaced onEarth.

It was not originally part of the earth and only appeared because of the loosening of the seal.novelbin

A primordial environment on the island greeted James.

They were surrounded by mountains towering into the sky. Several trees stood 100 meters from theground and blotted out the sun.

Jace, Yerick, and Xavia each occupied one of the three main Energy Pools in the island’s centralregion.

James went to the the island’s outskirts.

His Energy Pool was located in a canyon.

Inside the canyon, he found the Energy Pool and it had a width of 100 meters. The liquid inside thepool had a milky color with streaks of red. It was a remarkable sight. Upon getting closer, Jamescould sense powerful energy thrumming from the pool.

James stood by the pool, looked at the white and red liquid in it, and murmured, “Is this the EnergyPool?”

Just as he voiced his doubts, a dazzling white light shonefrom the Energy Pool and shot up into thesky.

James was unsure of what was inside the Energy Pool and who left behind the Blood Essence.Moreover, he did not know what perks he would gain after taking a dip in the pool.

Without much hesitation, he jumped into the pool.

When he entered the pool, he immediately sensed a magical power from the water, which helpedopen the pores throughout his body.

The mysterious energy entered his body, and he felt warm and indescribably comfortable.

James could not help but exclaim, “It feels so good.”

His body absorbed the mysterious energy, nourishing his muscles and bones. Without him noticing,his physical strength gradually grew.

James’ physical strength had already reached the Herculean’s Sixth Layer and was close to theImmortal Ascension. Despite that, his cultivation rank was relatively low.

At that moment, Sophie’s voice chimed in from the Celestial Abode and rang in James’ ears.

“James, your physical strength is much higher than your cultivation rank. Your priority shouldn’t beto improve your physical strength but to improve your rank. You need to balance out your physicalstrength and cultivation rank. Otherwise, your body will be too strong, and your True Energy won’tbe able to keep up which will inhibit you from exerting your physical body’s true strength.”

Sophie began to lecture James about some basic theory.

Under normal circumstances, cultivators would only work to improve their rank and True Energy.

Very few people would cultivate True Energy and improve their physical strength simultaneously.

This was because physical strength improved at a much slower rate and needs to be diligentlytrained. This requires one to go through countless trials and tribulations.

Many cultivators are unable to endure the pain to improve their physical strength.

Additionally, cultivation methods to improve physical strength were very rare. Only a few major sectshave such cultivation methods and said methods were only passed down to direct disciples. Thus,many people do not even have the chance to come into contact with such cultivation methods.

However, only true genius cultivators simultaneously would improve their physical strength and TrueEnergy.

One would need complementary True Energy to display one’s real physical strength. Having weakTrue Energy and strong physical strength was inefficient and would only provide one with a strongdefense.

It could be said the physical body’s main function was defensive, while True Energy was the actualoffensive power.

After hearing Sophie’s explanation, James finally understood what he had to do.

However, Sophie was not entirely correct either.

When the physical body reaches its pinnacle, one punch alone could split mountains and theground.

However, James would still need to raise his True Energy and cultivation rank to continue improvingin the future.

Sophie’s voice resounded again. “Your body is extraordinary, James. It can grow infinitely andabsorb any energy and convert into your own True Energy. It’s very beneficial to improving your

rank.”

“The energy here is potent. Since your current rank is still relatively low, it’ll probably help youimprove by multiple fold. However, you shouldn’t keep thinking about raising your physical strengthfor now. Instead, raise your cultivation rank.”
