The Almighty Dragon General

Hadrian, Herbert, and Mia firmly believed they could find a way to the Palace of Nothingness as long as they could enter the
Dead City.
James noticed the gazes on him and fell into thought. After a while, he said, “How about you three wait here for a while? Don’t
go anywhere. I’ll have a look and see if I can break the barrier formation outside the city. Perhaps, I might be able to deactivate
it.
The three replied simultaneously, “Alright.”
James went ahead of them and arrived at the barrier formation again.
The evil spirits had already disappeared. It was evident that their souls lingered in the area to protect the city. As long as
intruders tried to break into the city, they would appear and kill any trespassers.
James cautiously reached out to the barrier formation.
The barrier revealed itself. James began to scrutinize the glowing barrier composed of mysterious inscriptions.
At that moment, the army of evil spirits reappeared.
James urged the Dark Ousia’s Power and allowed it to surge throughout his whole body. novelebook.com His Dark Power was
the same used by the evil spirits.
Sensing the familiar power before them, the evil spirits refrained from attacking him.
James was relieved after seeing that they remained passive.
He continued to inspect the barrier. In total, there were billions of inscriptions. Moreover, the inscriptions shifted continuously and
created many variations in just a short moment.
The inscriptions were varied and esoteric, making them hard to comprehend in a short time.
Even though James understood Curse Inscriptions and could spot similarities in these inscriptions, his knowledge of Curse
Inscriptions was still lacking.
James floated before the barrier and was lost in thought.

Mysterious inscriptions kept emerging in his mind.
Entranced, he saw a strange image within the inscriptions on the barrier. With a thought, James summoned an ordinary-looking
Guqin with a broken string.
Previously, James had entered the Dark World with Emperor Jabari and found a mysterious palace. From the palace, he
obtained a Guqin.
Back then, Emperor Jabari played the Guqin and broke one of the strings. After that, Emperor Jabari instructed him to put the
Guqin away.
A few moments ago, James glimpsed a blurry figure holding onto a Guqin in the inscriptions. Then, he suddenly remembered he
had a Guqin within the Celestial Abode.
He murmured, “What does the Dead City have to do with Yukia, the person Emperor Jabari had been looking for?
novelebook.comCould she have also been here before?”
At that moment, a mysterious force was released from the Guqin.
The force triggered the barrier formation, thuy and the city’s closed gate slowly opened.
“What’s going on?” James was surprised.
He put away the Guqin, and the city gate closed instantly.
Then, he summoned the Guqin again, and the city gate reopened.
He immediately understood that the Guqin was the key to opening the Dead City.
He reunited with his companions and led them to the city gate again.
Mia asked. “Have you thought of a solution already, Mr. Caden?”
The Stuart brothers also looked at James expectantly.
James calmly took out the Guqin, and a magical force radiated from it, deactivating the barrier formation around the city.
The city gate slowly swung open.

The three of them looked at the mysterious Guqin in surprise.
They asked in unison. “What’s that?”
James took a deep breath and explained. novelebook.com“I obtained it from a mysterious palace in the Dark World. It was left
behind by a senior named Yukia Dearnaley.”
“Yukia Dearnaley? Who’s that?” Mia had a puzzled look.
The Stuart brothers were also confused and unfamiliar with the name.
