Chapter 4371
James felt the cold blade against his skin and froze. He could sense the murderous aura
from Thea and knew he would die inside the illusion if he were even to move a muscle.
Thea asked coldly, "Who exactly are you? How are you related to Soren? Also, why are you
keep following me?"
"I'm not related to Soren," James replied honestly.
Although he had met with Soren before, they did not have much connection with each
other.
'Then why are you following me?”
"I don't want to see you continue walking down the wrong path, and I am trying to help
you back on the right track."
"Pfft." Thea sneered and said, "Who is to determine right from wrong? Everyone's ultimate
goal is to become the strongest."

James closed his eyes, awaiting his death. In his current condition, he was no match
against Thea.
He thought Thea would surely kill him. However, she withdrew the long sword and said
calmly, "I'll spare you because you're also a human. Stop following me, and don't ever
appear in my sight again. Otherwise, I won't show any
mercy next time."
After Thea finished speaking, she disappeared from the area.
James was left panting heavily on the ground.
After a while, he got up from the ground with difficulty and sat in a lotus position. He set
up a time formation and began refining the Karma Power he had attracted.
His cultivation rank was at the Quasi Boundless Supreme Path Rank. Unless James
elevated his rank, the rate at which his strength improved and refined the Karma Power
would be very slow.
However, he could not make a breakthrough yet. Otherwise, he would never be able to
defeat Wynton.
He planned to increase his strength to the maximum limit so that when he entered the
Permanence Acme Rank, he would be more potent than those at the same rank.
James was severely injured but survived, relying on his strong willpower and Chaos Power.
He gradually refined the Karma Power into his own strength. At the same time, he utilized
the Karma Power to improve his physical body.
Even though the improvements were slow, he still made steady progress.
Time passed by slowly.
After a long time, James finally absorbed and refined the Karma Power into his own
strength. As a result, he had grown significantly stronger.
James stood up and stretched his body. Then, he dispersed the time formation and tried to

Three million years passed while he was refining the Karma Power.
The damages caused during the previous battle had not been restored even after three
million years, and countless skeletal remains were still scattered on the ground.
These remains belonged to powerhouses. Thus, their bones had not completely
decomposed even after so many years.
James looked at the bones around him. Despite wanting to rescue them, he was helpless.
Three million years had passed, and he did not possess the means to revive them after
such a long time.
His cultivation rank and strength only permitted him to resurrect them right after death.
The Karma Power he would attract would be more potent if he were to revive those dead
for much longer.
With his current strength, he was unable to bear the consequences. If he were to save
them, he would be devoured by Karma Power.
"Thea...You will be the death of me." James sighed helplessly.
James had not successfully saved Thea from going down the wrong path, so his trial was
not over yet. He had to rescue her to complete the Path of Heavenly Awakening's third
trial and leave the illusion.
