The Almighty Dragon General

Chapter 2104
From the conversation alone, Cody immediately knew that James had reservations about him.
He smiled and said, “To be honest with you, I don’t mean any harm. I only know that your wife is the greatest fighter on Earth
who can even defeat Herculeans. However, her strength will only attract unwanted attention. Besides, there are descendants of
some ancient orthodox. factions in certain Sealed Realms who have been given strict orders to annihilate everyone who has the
Supreme Spiritual Root on Earth.”
“But why?”James asked, puzzled. “Why would they want to do such a thing?”
Cody explained, “That’s because they were the ones who went after Earth’s traitors long ago. They were worried that those who
have the Supreme Spiritual Root would pose a threat to them in the long run.”
James had a rough understanding of the historical context. However, not even Marcello from the Demonic Realm knew about the
specifics. Believing that Cody would not know much either, he chose not to question him further.
Cody said, “You should be on your guard, and also warn your wife not to show herself in public as much as possible. Although
she’s strong, the cultivators who have arrived on Earth. from the Sealed Realms are true geniuses. Even Magnus, who
challenged you to a duel, wouldn’t stand a chance against them.”
Upon hearing this, James fell silent.
Soon, Cody’s subordinate returned.
A beautiful lady appeared before Cody and said, “Master.”
“Mhm.” Cody nodded slightly and said, “Get straight to the point.”
“Understood.” The woman nodded and turned to look at James, saying, “Based on our investigation, Magnus Quinnton came
from the Overworld. He’s the disciple of the greatest cultivator in the Overworld and the Son of Heaven’s senior, whom you’ve
killed. To avenge him, he issued you a challenge.
“Magnus’ strength should not be underestimated. He has crossed into the Immortal Ascension rank and is now at the Immortal
Ascension Third Stair. As his strength greatly exceeds that of yours, you stand no chance of winning against him.”
Hearing this, James’ expression turned grim.

The Immortal Ascension’s Third Stair?
He was only at the Supernatural Eighth Inner Gate’s peak.
He would have to pass through six layers of the Herculean rank before arriving at the Immortal Ascension rank. Besides, he had
no idea about the ranking system for the Immortal Ascension rank.
Now, he knew just how great the power disparity was.
How should he proceed?
Even if he entered the Time Chamber and accelerated his cultivation, there was simply too
little time left for him. There was no way he could catch up with Magnus.
Cody smiled and said, “Indeed, he’s much stronger than you are. In my opinion, you should just admit defeat. Apologize to him
sincerely and he might just spare your life.”
Cody gave his opinion, and James took a deep breath.
Looking at Cody, Jame asked, “Cody, as you came from a powerful Sealed Realm, you should know more about the ranking
system of cultivators than me. How many levels are there in the Immortal Ascension rank? What’s after Immortal Ascension?
How powerful are the strongest cultivators in the Sealed Realms?”
Cody looked James in the eye and answered honestly, “The Immortal Ascension rank has a total of nine stairs, with each more
terrifying than the one that comes before it. After crossing the Ninth Stair, you will then reach the Mage Rank. Once you
accomplish this, you get to cultivate a Yogacara of your own. This rank has a total of three levels.
“After the Mage Rank, you’ll arrive at the Tribulation Rank. After that, it’ll be the Sage Rank.
“As for the ancient orthodoxy within the Sealed Realms, they are all guarded by cultivators at the Sage Rank.”
Upon hearing this, James’ expression turned grim. There really was no end to the road of cultivation. He was simply too weak at
the moment.
After taking a deep breath, he asked, “How strong are those who are competing for the providence on Earth?”

Cody shook his head slightly and said, “I don’t know either. That’s because the Sealed Realms are isolated from one another. As
such, I don’t know the exact strength of the others from different Sealed Realms.”
