Chapter 2394
“What should I do?”
James panicked.
He had to stand now. However, he was powerless to do anything.
He could only lie on the ground motionless and gasp for breath. His body had suffered both external and internal injuries, and his
meridians were already destroyed.
He tried catalyzing True Energy. Time and again, he catalyzed the Novenary Golden Body Siddhi. However, his body was
completely empty inside, and not a single trace of True Essence remained.
Then, a thread of Demonic Energy materialized in his body.
Seizing the window of opportunity, he catalyzed the Novenary Golden Body Siddhi and forcibly absorbed the Demonic Energy,
transforming them into True Energy.
Meanwhile, Lucifer was walking toward James one step at a time. With every step he took, he staggered. However, he did not
collapse to the ground. Regardless, it took him ten minutes to traverse a short distance.
Ten minutes later, he arrived two meters away from James. Looking at James whose life was hanging by a thread and who was
in a wretched state, a smug smile crept up on Lucifer’s face as he said, “You have lost, James.”
Hearing Lucifer’s voice, James was distraught. At that moment, he had only gathered a tiny bit of True Essence. Out of
desperation, he catalyzed what True Essence he could gather and hurled them toward the dragon bones.
Stimulated by the True Essence, the dragon bones glimmered with a faint golden light. Then, a mysterious inscription circulated,
materializing mysterious power. The mysterious power swiftly transformed into True Essence. Catalyzing the True Essence and
gathering them to form his spine, James gritted his teeth as he stood up with great difficulty.
Under the watchful gaze of every living being there, James stood up, his back straight.
“The battle isn’t over yet.”
James beckoned and said, “Come, Lucifer.”
Seeing how James, whose life was hanging by a thread just a moment ago, was now energized, Lucifer furrowed his eyebrows
and muttered under his breath, “How did he manage to recover that quickly?”
Just as he was bewildered, James made his move.
In the blink of an eye, he appeared before Lucifer and slammed his fist against his chest. However, as his strength was weak, he
could only send him collapsing to the ground.
As Lucifer collapsed to the ground, he vomited a mouthful of blood.
“Can you still stand?”
James spoke in a feeble voice.
“Y-Yes...”
Lucifer tried to stand.
However, James immediately sat on Lucifer and pressed him down. At the same time, he struck Lucifer’s legs.
Even though his True Essence was no more and what remained had materialized into his spine, his physical strength was still
overwhelming. Each strike possessed devastating power. Hence, Lucifer’s legs were broken, and he was beaten to a pulp.
“Argh! James, you...!”
Even Lucifer could not endure the agonizing pain.
Meanwhile, everyone around them had their mouths agape. They did not expect a once-in-a-lifetime battle to end this way.
“J-James... N-No more... I-I admit defeat.”
Lucifer said.
He chose to concede defeat.
Hearing this, James breathed a sigh of relief. His spine that was formed using True Essence dissipated, and he instantly
collapsed to the ground, spurting out a mouthful of blood.
Thousands upon thousands of living beings simply watched. None dared to approach them.
“H-Haha...”
Though his legs were broken, Lucifer was laughing.
“Haha...!”
James, who was beside him, laughed as well.
“I-I’ve won... Finally, I’ve won.”
