The Almighty Dragon General

Chapter 1873
James advanced but was knocked back a few steps after bumping into something.
He was puzzled.
Looking ahead, it was completely pitch black, and there was nothing. However, he could vaguely see the path in front of him.
There were old tree roots and black mist oozing out from the gaps in the ground.
The surrounding was tranquil, but the environment felt strange and terrifying.
James stood rooted in place for a few seconds.
Then, he continued to step forward.
Once again, he bumped into something.
He reached out his hands and felt for something ahead of him.
The path in front of him was blocked by what seemed to be an invisible wall.
He tried advancing from a different angle, but the results were the same. He was still unable to go any further.
“That’s strange.”
James was perplexed.
Ah-woo!
In the distance, an unidentified beast hidden in the dark howled again.
Although James was a ninth-ranked grandmaster, his eardrums felt numb from the deafening howls.
In the darkness, these seemed to be a figure flickering.
The figure charged at him at a lightning-fast speed.
It was too fast for James to react.

By the time James reacted, the figure had already dashed to him. It seemed to want to attack but was blocked by the invisible
wall.
James finally could see its appearance. It was a terrifyingly ferocious beast with long fangs.
He took a few steps back in fright.
After that, James did not linger and quickly left the area.
Soon, he reached the glowing white mist again.
After passing through the white mist, he returned to Mount Bane’s foot.
It was noon, and the sun was hanging high in the sky.
James raised his head and looked at the dazzling sun in the sky. He observed the white mist in the distance perplexedly.
The phenomenon was strange. It was daytime, but as he walked further into the mountain, it became as dark as night, and he
could not see anything but darkness.
James quickly walked over to Tyrus.
“Uncle,” James called out.
Tyrus was resting with his eyes closed.
Hearing James calling for him, Tyrus opened his eyes and looked at James.
James whispered, “I went through the white mist just now and entered an unknown mountain. It was pitch black inside, and a
mysterious transparent wall blocked my path, so I couldn’t go any further.”
Surprised, Tyrus asked, “Is that so? Let’s go have a look.”
Tyrus stood up and entered the mountain with James leading the way.
The other people had also noticed that Mount Bane’s surroundings had changed and that many unknown mountains had
appeared. Thus, they began exploring the mountains.

James and Tyrus soon came to the place where a wall was blocking the path.
Tyrus reached out his hand and could clearly feel the barrier ahead of them.
The barrier was invisible, but it was there.
Tyrus thought for a while and said, “It has to be some kind of seal.”
“What do you mean?” James was confused.
Tyrus explained, “That’s it. It has to be a seal. If I’m not mistaken, these mountains have appeared but haven’t fully merged with
the earth because the seal hasn’t been lifted. We can only go further after the seal opens.”
“I see.”
James came to a realization and said, “Still, the Empyrean Spiritual Energy here is very concentrated and is a few times greater
than it is outside. We can get double the results with only half the effort here. It makes me not want to leave.”
Tyrus said with a smile, ‘You can stay and cultivate here however you please after we take over Mount Bane.”
James shook his head and said, “That won’t be possible. I have to return to the Southern Plains to preside over the situation.”
Tyrus turned around and looked at the vast, white mist behind him, saying, ‘This area must’ve just appeared and is full of
Spiritual Energy. There might be some spiritual fruits here. Let’s search the area and see if there are any.”
“Alright.”
