Chapter 2017
Marcello intended to annihilate everyone here, whereas James disagreed, believing that such a plan was unrealistic.
Even though many perished just by attempting to pass the first barrier, there were still at least 7000 of them left.
Besides, those who managed to pass the barriers. would be the best of the best. Annihilating them all would be nigh
impossible.
Currently, the best way to obtain the Celestial Abode was to pass the nine barriers. With that thought in mind,
James hastened his footsteps and pressed onward.
Along the winding path, all sorts of mysterious flora exuded an alluring fragrance. The berries also radiated a
blinding light. Every flora here was spiritual fruit that was imbued with mysterious energy. Upon consumption, it
would bring many benefits to cultivators, such as improving one’s strength in a short amount of time.
Upon seeing the spiritual fruits in his surroundings, James’ desire for the Celestial Abode grew more intense.
*I have to obtain this Celestial Abode. This place is as huge as a megacity. If properly reconstructed, it can house

Celestial Abode.”
James began formulating plans for the future.
Soon, he was already at the forefront.
Those who advanced the furthest were also some of the most powerful. James could recognize a few familiar
faces-Xain, Wynter, Samarth, Yandel, Leandro, and the Son of Heaven. Thought James could not recognize the
others, he knew that they also possessed enormous strength and were only slightly weaker than those at the
Supernatural Consummation rank.
The strongest amongst them all were perhaps the Son of Heaven and Marcello. They might have advanced into the
Herculean stage long ago. However, could they truly overwhelm everyone else by themselves?
James doubted it.
Even if they had crossed into the Herculean rank, they would not be able to annihilate everyone here.
Soon, they arrived at the second barrier.
There were a few bizarre rocks nearby the road. As they approached, the rocks moved and formed a mysterious
Magical Circle, trapping everyone inside.
As the Magical Circle was enveloped in a thin mist, visibility was low.
Swish!
At that moment, James could hear the sound of a wave of Sword Energy. He hurriedly dodged. as Sword Energy
nearly sliced his neck. Though he dodged the attack, his neck was scratched, and there was a bloody wound on it.
Though he managed to dodge in time, the same could not be said about an Overworld Outsider behind him. The
man’s body was pierced through, and Sword Energy exploded inside his body, shattering his body into a million
pieces.
Upon seeing this, James took a deep breath.
He began scanning his surroundings while on high alert.
“Argh!”
Then, the sound of an agonizing scream came.

If he did not pay attention even for just a brief moment, he would lose his life. As he knew nothing about Magic
Circles, he could only march along with the crowd.
Swoosh!
A succession of Sword Energies burst forth. Though many before him managed to dodge in time, those who did not
were struck and perished almost immediately.
“James.”
A voice came from afar.
James turned his head to see Marcello walking toward him in a hurry. Marcello grabbed his arm and said, “Be
careful, this Magic Circle is powerful. Lose your attention for a moment and you’ll lose your life. I know a way out,
follow me.”
After he spoke, he grabbed James’ arm and left.
His hand was soft and smooth. It was the first time James had been in such close contact with Marcello. He could
smell the alluring fragrance he exuded, which was even more bewitching than a woman’s perfume.
“I-I don’t want to continue anymore. I’m quitting.”
