Chapter 5460
Meanwhile, James and Zeno were heading to the Dunhamvale World, unaware that Thea
had been kidnapped by a powerhouse at the Holy Celestial Rank's middle stage.
At that moment, James and Zeno had already gotten close to the Dunhamvale World.
The Dunhamvale World was located at the border of the Prison World. The mountain range
was vast, and there was no end in sight.
The Avenir Academy had already sealed off the area, and nobody was allowed to get
close.
As soon as James and Zeno arrived in the Dunhamvale World, they sensed the presence of
a powerhouse at the Holy Celestial Rank.
James frowned and said, 'This is troublesome. I can sense a powerhouse at the Holy
Celestial Rank in the mountain range ahead of us. Moreover, there are several more at the
Holy Celestial Rank wandering around the area. Even though the Prison World's Grand
Tournament is happening right now, there are still so many powerful cultivators here. I'm

the news reaches them."
Zeno also fell into thought. The situation was more complicated than he expected. Even
though the Prison World was vast, it was still smaller than an outside plane.
Although the Avenir Academy had deliberately stopped the news from spreading, it would
eventually get out sooner or later. Since they had already heard about it, the news was
already circulating. Other powerhouses must have already gotten hold of the news as well.
Deep within the mountain range, there was a palace situated atop one of the spiritual
mountains. A middle-aged man sat inside the palace's main hall and said worriedly, "More
and more powerhouses are gathering nearby. I'm afraid the formation won't be able to
keep them away. If a powerhouse breaks the formation, then we'll lose our advantage. By
the way, has our call for reinforcements reached the Avenir Academy yet? When will they
be sending more powerhouses?"
"Yes, they've received our call. However, all our powerhouses at the Holy Celestial Rank
had left with the headmaster to the Eminence Academy. It's impossible for them to leave
right now. The available members are
currently on their way to support us. However, they are only at the Martial Celestial Rank.
The headmaster ordered us to hold on until the tournament ends, no matter what it
takes."
The name of the middle-aged man in charge of guarding the Dunhamvale World was Qued
Yagod. He was an elder of the Avenir Academy and a powerhouse at the peak of the Holy
Celestial Rank's early stage, very close to reaching the middle stage.
The first person to discover the ancient beast was Qued's disciple. After Qued was
informed, he immediately rushed over. Once he confirmed that an ancient beast was
inside the Dunhamvale World, he reported it to the Avenir Academy.
In the distance, James and Zeno sat down, leaning on a boulder together.
James said, 'You used to be the Heavenly Secrets Pavilion’s Rune Arts Grandmaster, right?
You should be very profound in Rune Art and formations. Even though you don’t have your
past life's strength, you still have your memories. Can't you set up a formation to trap
them? Then, we can go find the ancient beast, capture it, and escape."

"Sure I have the memories, but there are many profound formation inscriptions that I can't
use right now. What's the use of having the knowledge if I don't have the strength to put it
to use?" Zeno said helplessly.
James looked at him and asked, 'Then what should we do?"
Zeno turned to James and replied, "How would I know? Didn’t you establish the
Supremusseum? You're a pretty impressive person yourself. You should be able to do
something, right?"
James shook his head and said, "If I could, I wouldn't have asked you."
The two of them slumped against the boulder frustratedly.
Suddenly, James looked into the distance and said frowningly, "Another powerhouse has
arrived. This one is at the Holy Celestial Rank's middle stage. More and more powerhouses
are appearing.”
Zeno said dejectedly, "If there's really nothing we can do, we should retreat first. We must
not be fated to have the ancient beast and the primitive inscriptions."
Zeno began to lose hope after sensing the increasing number of powerhouses in the area.
Boom!!!
A powerful shockwave rippled through the air.
