Chapter 3609
Since he had no need to cultivate the Five Great Paths and Karma Path for the time being, the only Path he needed
to cultivate was the Dark Path. Besides, since he had the Dark Wellspring in the Celestial Abode, he could cultivate
the Dark Path rather easily. The Dark Wellspring came from the depths of the Dark World. Since two Caelum
Ancestral Gods fought against each other for the Dark Wellspring’s possession, not to mention that the Lord of the
Dark World was even here in the Twelfth Universe in pursuit of the object, this must be an incredible treasure.
Time was running out for James. In the remainder of his time, he would have to increase the rank of all his Paths
and try crossing into the Quasi Ancestral God Rank. Then, he would refine his physical body. This was the only way
for him to head to the new universe and compete for providence against the prodigies of other universes.
After some contemplation, he said, "I plan to cultivate in the universe for now and try to increase my strength
before arriving at the new universe."
"Mhm.”
The Ancestral Needle Master stroked his beard and nodded, saying, "In that case, I won't be accompanying you any
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtlonger. With your strength, you can travel the entire universe without having to worry about encountering any
danger. Those powerful figures who have heard of you will not
attack you recklessly.”
James clasped his fists and said, "Thank you for everything you’ve done for me. If not for you bringing me to Yin
and Yang Valley, I wouldn’t have comprehended Yin and Yang Transformation and cultivated a Macrocosm Power."
"Hahaha... That is merely your providence."
The Ancestral Needle Master laughed and disappeared from James' view.
"Where are we going next, James?” Melinda asked.
James glanced at her.
In truth, he planned to return to Mount Nothingness. Mount Nothingness was the place of residence of the previous
ruler of the universe. Besides that, there was a Chamber of Scriptures there, where there must be texts about the
Five Great Paths. So, he planned to head there and have a look. Meanwhile, since Melinda was Hadad’s daughter,
he could not bring her along.
"Melinda, you should return to Mount Heavenly Path. I plan to train by myself for now."
Stunned, Melinda said, "What? No way. You promised me I can accompany you while you train."
"I plan to travel to all four corners of the universe. As you're the princess of Mount Heavenly Path, I'm afraid I can't
bring you along." James turned her down.
"But..."
"No buts. Return to Mount Heavenly Path for now. I promise you I will marry you once I cross into the Ancestral God
Rank. I won't go back on my words."
"A-Alright, then," Melinda said.
She looked at James with a wistful look on her face and waved, saying, "Be careful, alright? I'll be waiting for you at
Mount Heavenly Path."
"Go on." James waved her goodbye.
This was his only way to trick Melinda into leaving. As for the marriage, he was still lightyears away from reaching
the Ancestral God Rank anyway. He could put those thoughts aside for now.
Melinda did not linger for long. After waving James goodbye, she turned to leave and disappeared without a trace.
After Melinda disappeared, James breathed a sigh of relief.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Next, I plan to head to Mount Nothingness. Then, I will enter the Celestial Abode there and cultivate the Dark Path."
He murmured.
After confirming his directions, he catalyzed the Space Path and forcibly tore the void open before leaving the area.
When he reappeared, he was already outside Mount Nothingness. Gazing at the area ahead that was enveloped in
a black mist, James did not hesitate at all. He strode forward and entered the black mist. Soon, he traversed
through many mountain ranges and arrived at the gates of
the Palace of Nothingness.
Upon his arrival, many powerful figures of Mount Nothingness appeared.
"You're back, Your Holiness.”
"Welcome back."
Many spoke.
"Mhm.”
James nodded.
"By the way," Karter said, "Your Holiness, a new universe has come into being. It is apparent that Hadad is trying to
send you to your death by sending you there. I would advise you not to go. You do not lack providence at the
moment. With what you have in your possession, you can cross into the Macrocosm Ancestral God Rank with no
problem at all as long as you conceal yourself and cultivate. Once you cross into the Macrocosm Ancestral God
Rank, you will possess a strength that greatly surpasses Hadad."
