Chapter 4728
Latran did not pursue the topic any further. He turned around and began walking toward a
spiritual mountain.
James closely followed behind them.
Atop the spiritual mountain was a black palace that emitted a black aura. The aura
gathered in the sky and shrouded the area, giving the place an eerie vibe.
Latran led James into the vast hall.
In the front of the hall was a massive seat formed by countless skulls.
"Sir." Latran immediately knelt to the ground.
James quickly followed suit.
"Hmm?" An apathetic voice resounded in the hall.
Immediately afterward, a mass of black mist landed on the highest seat and materialized
into an old man who looked to be in his fifties.
While kneeling on the ground, James glanced at the old man that had appeared.
He wore a gray robe and had a rather ordinary appearance. However, the old man had a
frightening scar that stretched from his ear to the corner of his mouth, causing his lips to
look slightly crooked.
James was slightly puzzled by his appearance. A cultivator that had reached a certain level
could heal a scar easily. Thus, James pondered on why the Malvada Sect's deputy leader
would leave the scar to be.
Despite his doubts, James was confident the old man before him was Laduni, as his
appearance was consistent with the Verde Academy's intel. Additionally, James could
sense the old man's cultivation rank was at the Caelum Boundless Rank.
Latran respectfully presented the bottle containing the Spiritual Power they had collected
to Laduni.
Laduni accepted it and said happily, "Thanks for the hard work. Make another trip after
resting for a bit. However, the number of Verde Academy's disciples has increased
recently. It's best to head to further universes. Be careful not to draw their attention."
"Understood," said Latran.
"Alright, you may rise." Laduni gently waved his hand.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmLatran got back to his feet, and James also followed suit.
Using the opportunity, Latran said, "Sir, this is a confidant of mine. He has proven to be
loyal to our sect and has contributed significantly recently to our missions. I'd like to
propose having him promoted as an elder so that he can better serve our sect."
Laduni looked at James, sensed his cultivation rank, and replied, "Alright. I approve."
'Thank you, Sir," James pretended to respond gratefully.
"Alright, you two are dismissed." Laduni waved his hand and disappeared from the hall.
"Continue working hard." Latran patted James's shoulder and took his leave as well.
James also left the hall.
After being promoted to an elder, James was given a spiritual mountain in the area and
more access to different things. With his new status, he quickly figured out the overall
strength of the base. Then, he temporarily left the base and headed to a nearby city
where Waleria had rented a spiritual mountain.
