"So you're really not going to tell me more, please the suspense is killing me" James said with a groan as he and Xi Shi moved towards the core."Well at this moment it should be a mutual exchange, otherwise you can wait till we pass the mission" Xi Shi said calmly before she focused on the path before them, her eyes seemingly lost in thought."Well since you intend to keep it to yourself, suit yourself we're almost there anyway, soon I'll get to see it myself" James said as they walked right through a transparent, immediately the scene before them changed from the original deathly and chaotic environment to a calm and peaceful environment."This Fiend wasn't simple" James said with a frown."You can feel it too?" Xi Shi asked in shock."Yeah it feels like it's not there but I can definitely feel it, that thin aura of chaos that changed form" James replied with form as some information formed in his mind, the only way to become a god was to comprehend a law and to be able to become a
"What bullshit, I've never heard of the imperial rune sect" Lu Xun said arrogantly as he glared at James with malice evident in his eyes but deep in his heart, he was just jealous that James was standing next to such a beauty."That's the whole point of being ghosts, few people know of our existence" James replied with a look of disdain like the answer was so simple."Hmm I don't care what force you're from, can you open the barrier or not" The illusory swordsman said with impatience."Of course, it's quite easy" James replied with a smirk."Wait up everyone, just slow down, we don't know if what he is saying is true, we don't even know he is, he could be a spy from the demons" Ye Yang said with a frown as he glanced at James and Xi Shi suspiciously."You know I'm starting to get tired of your mouth dog face, if you got a problem then just say it" James said with a look of scorn as he pointed at Ye Yang whose expression changed to anger at the provocation."What did you just call me?"
"The walls are really unique" Liu Xiang remarked s they walked through the narrow pathway through the walls."How did you know about the path here?" Liu Xiang asked James who glanced towards him quietly."Not gonna answer me huh" Liu Xiang muttered with a sigh before he turned to XI Shi."Hey beautiful, so what's your story" Liu Xiang said with a smirk."Do you ever shut up" Xi Shi retorted in annoyance."So how do you feel about letting those guys walk into their deaths" Liu Xiang turned to James and said with a grin after seeing his plan to lure Xi Shi to talk had worked, he also noticed that Xi Shi also perked her ears slightly after hearing the question, it seemed like she was also interested in James's answer."When they walked over here, I told them that I would help them up to the core and that's exactly what I did, I even chipped in a little clue that not everything is as it looks, so I would say that I've done more than enough" James said calmly as his eyes scanned the walls.
“Hey, are you okay?” James asked as he stood in front of Xi Shi who blinked her eyes as she remembered where she was.“Are you feeling all right?” James asked again as Xi Shi noticed how close they were, her cheeks suddenly glowed with a light red hue.“Oh sorry” James said awkwardly as he noticed this change and stepped backward.“I’m also fine thank you, what is this piece of paper on me?” Liu Xiang asked as he looked down to see a piece of paper stuck on his chest with several runes on it.“Make sure you don’t make the mistake of taking it off, those are concealment runes to shroud us from the thing in the core” James replied grimly.“You mean that eye, did you see it too?” Xi Shi asked in surprise as she thought back to the intense pressure she felt from that eye.“Huh did you see it?” James asked in shock.“Yeah, right before we escaped the illusion, I saw a huge eye staring at us, at that moment, I could feel such intense pressure that I have only ever felt from a few people” Xi
“How dare you spit such foul stench on me, didn’t your parents teach you to respect your elders” James’s voice sounded together with the head of the virulent serpent falling to the ground, as he walked out of the miasma clutching his sword he wiped the blood off calmly before turning to the group who stood watching him like he was a ghost.“This guy has to be the most mysterious person I have ever seen” Ye Yang remarked in astonishment staring at James who grinned while walking up to them.“I was wondering how you were going to take care of it, how did you even do that?” Xi Shi asked standing together with Liu Xiang who also stared at James in shock, even at his peak, he would have to be wary of the poisonous miasma of the Virulent Serpent but James just walked in without hesitation like he knew that he wouldn’t be harmed, he wasn’t the only one with this thought, Xi Shi also had the same thought in her mind.‘I didn’t even know they were behind us’ Luo Zen thought while staring at Xi
A flash of light was followed by the appearance of a figure in a pure white dimension, the whole dimension was white filled with nothing, it was totally empty except for the doorway that stood some feet away from him.“A creepy doorway, why not?” James chuckled to himself before walking through the doorway, as he walked through, he felt a strange force wash over him seeping through every pore in his body as if, trying to inspect every single secret he kept, the feeling lasted for a while before he was teleported into a grassy field, immediately after appearing, James didn’t waste time and quickly took a look at his surroundings.He was in a beautiful grassland, there was a magnificent sun which could be seen standing triumphantly in the sky providing light, butterflies flew all around the flowers which graced the environment with enchanting smells, birds flew all around the sky as rabbits and other insects played around on the ground, all this combined painted a beautiful image in Jam
“I don’t know who you are but I’ll do as you say, I’m sure you know better than to break the oath of a sword” The Northern Sword replied with a nod to James who smiled just as the dimension shook for three cloaked figures to appear.“Looks like your opponents are here, I’ll be going on now, Xi Shi wait for me” James said to The Northern Sword and then to Xi Shi before teleporting over to the orb, he looked back to catch a view of The Northern Sword rushing toward the three figures alone if it was a different person there, James would have been worried but he knew who the Northern Sword was so he had no fear, he turned around and placed his palms on the orb before disappearing leaving the others.When he was some distance away from the three figures, The Northern Sword paused before sitting on the ground, his long sword lay next to him as he waved his hand causing a gourd to appear in his hands which he raised to his mouth, he then proceeded to gulp down its contents, by now the three
“And that, ladies and gentlemen is how you make an entrance” James said with a bow before leaping off the monster’s back to land on the ground.“James! How..?” Xi Shi’s eyes lit up in shock after seeing James who grinned and walked over to her.“Yeah I missed you too” James winked at Xi Shi then turned to the others around.“Please help me loot those bodies over there” James said to them with a smile.“Yes of course” The others quickly took off to execute the task, they didn’t want to imagine what would happen if James got angry, the humongous monster at the side was a hint.After seeing them move along, James turned back to XI Shi.“Give me a minute with him” James whispered to her causing her to nod in response, James then turned to The Northern Sword who twitched seeing this.James’s expression suddenly turned serious as he walked toward The Northern Sword, taking each step one by one, watching James approach him, The Northern Sword instinctively grabbed his sword, his expression c
