The Almighty Dragon General

Chapter 2047
James ate one of the silver fruits.
An indescribable aroma wafted from his throat to his whole body with one bite. Right after that, powerful energy flowed through
his body.
His body’s pores were stretched open, and silvery-white rays of light emanated from his body, lifting his body from the ground.
He felt as if he was going to ascend to the skies.
“What incredible energy.” James’ mouth hung agape.
To avoid losing excess energy from his body, he closed his body’s pores and quickly activated the Lunar and Terra Art. He
absorbed the energy within his body and refined it into his own True Energy.
His True Energy was rapidly enhanced.
It had been some time since he became a Supernatural. Previously, he cultivated in the Celestial Abode. Now that he had
absorbed the mysterious silver fruit, he could perceive the Inner Gates within his body.
He continued to absorb the energy.
Soon, he felt that he had reached the limit because something inside him prevented him from absorbing more energy.
He knew the barrier he felt was one of the Inner Gates, and he had to break through them to continue strengthening his True
Energy.
He channeled all the energy in his body to surpass the invisible Inner Gate within his body.
Boom!
A loud noise came from within.
James had successfully broken the Inner Gate.
It was like surging water that had broken through a dam, the True Energy in his body flooded his meridians like a flowing river.
James could sense the vibrant force in his body.

James continued to absorb the mysterious fruit’s energy.
The power from the mysterious fruit was incredible, and his True Energy continuously increased.
He began to cultivate and soon lost track of time.
Shortly after, he could sense his Second Inner Gate and easily broke through it as well.
He reached Second Inner Gate.
Meanwhile, the custodian stood at the Chamber of Scriptures’ ninth floor. A projection of the scene beyond the doorway hovered
in front of her, allowing her to monitor James’ progress. She was constantly watching him.
“This boy is rather blessed. He even managed to get himself such a mythical fruit.”
The custodian was shocked by the fruit’s energy.
At that moment, she pointed toward the void.
Powerful energy rushed out from her finger.
James was still cultivating when a white light suddenly descended from the sky. The light enveloped him and entered his body. At
that moment, James felt his body get fettered by a mysterious force.
From the sky, an ethereal voice resounded.
“James, I’ve strengthened the Inner Gates in your body. From this point, you will only be able to breach your Inner Gates by
reaching the peak of your rank. This will ensure you are able to defeat the Celestial Abode’s defender after reaching the
Supernatural’s Eighth Inner Gate.
The custodian’s voice resounded.
James sighed in relief after hearing the custodian’s voice.
“Ah... So turns out that was just the custodian, huh? I guess she’s done this for my own good.”
After that, James did not give it much thought and continued his cultivation.

He continued absorbing more of the mysterious silver fruit’s energy to augment his True Energy.
Inside his body, True Energy surged and constantly amplified.
Before he knew it, he found the Third Inner Gate and began attempting to unlock it. However, no matter how hard he tried, he
could not break through the Inner Gate this time.
He was troubled. “Why is it not working?”
While James sat with a pensive expression, the ephemeral custodian appeared.
She looked at James and said, “I’ve strengthened the Inner Gates in your body. Your current strength alone won’t allow you to
break it.”
James heard the voice and raised his head to look at the custodian ahead of him. He blurted out, “Then, what should I do?
Please grant me your wisdom, Ms. Custodian.”
