A hundred million years later...
James’ body flashed, and he appeared above the ancient battlefield.
“He’s moving.”
“Is he heading to the sixteenth floor?”
“How terrifying... He was only here for 100 million years!”
The surrounding powerful individuals gathered and conversed. All of them were shocked by James’ comprehension.
James glanced at the spatial barrier above him and raised his hand as a mysterious power gathered in his palm. Then, his body
became illusory and divided into thousands upon thousands of shadows in an instant. These shadows performed different
cultivation methods and attacked the spatial barrier in the air all at once.
Boom!
A crack appeared on the spatial barrier.
The surrounding shadows merged into one, and James’ body flashed as he entered the void, leaving the fifteenth floor and
heading to the sixteenth.
The sixteenth floor’s environment was the same as the previous one with the sole exception of the spatial pressure. There were
even fewer living beings here. There were about a hundred living beings on the fifteenth floor and about twenty on the sixteenth.
These living beings’ mastery of cultivation was even more advanced and profound than the ones on the fifteenth floor.
Upon James’ arrival, he attracted the attention of the living beings on the sixteenth floor. Twenty gazes were fixed on him, hoping
to see through his strength. However, they could not see through James.
James scanned his surroundings. Under his sensation, he realized that this floor was full of Seventh Stage Lords. With such
strength, they would be able to wipe out whole universes with ease. They would be top-notch fighters even in the First and
Second Universes. James did not expect that there would be so many powerful individuals hidden in the Ecclesiastical
Restricted Zone.
James did not greet them but instead went straight toward the ancient battlefield and began annihilating the shadows to obtain
the mysterious cultivation methods and Supernatural Powers. In a single breath, he annihilated thousands upon thousands of
shadows and obtained their cultivation methods. Then, he would head to a pavilion and enter a closed-door meditation.
The other powerful individuals paid no heed to him and concentrated on their cultivation. That was because they were already on
the sixteenth floor, and they wanted to reach the seventeenth as soon as possible or even the eighteenth so that they could
leave this place once and for all.
The cultivation methods of the seventeenth floor were even more mysterious. James only managed to gain the right to break the
spatial barrier after cultivating for a whole two hundred million years.
He entered the seventeenth floor, on which there were only three people—two men and one woman. Their cultivation bases
were extremely high. Two of them were Eighth Stage Lords and one of them was a Ninth Stage Lord.
“Finally, someone.”
“I wonder what has happened in the outside world. Let’s ask him.”
...
When James arrived, the three powerful individuals on the seventeenth floor appeared before him.
James looked at them.
One of the men was a sagelike elderly man wearing a gray robe. He clasped his fists and said with a warm smile, “My name is
Yahveh Zvonimir. I come from the First Universe, and I was abducted here shortly after the First Universe was created.”
The other man was a young man wearing a black robe. He was not handsome-looking and only had an ordinary appearance.
He looked at James and smiled, “Jehudi Driscoll comes from the First Universe as well. Just like Yahveh, I was forcibly abducted
here and have been trapped here since.”
The woman was glamorous-looking, and she wore a white dress that accentuated her slender and enticing figure. She smiled
bashfully and said, “My name is Yehosheva Bernadette. I come from the Primordial Realm.”
The three were rather friendly to James, considering that they bothered to introduce themselves.
