Chapter 5690
James wanted to verify whether Xayal created the so-called Ritual Rank. He was also
curious to find out the white-robed man's name. He asked, "May I ask for your name, sir?
The man smiled and replied, "My real name is Xzavion Bentley. However, I usually go by
Falcon Xoan in the cultivation world."
"Is Xayal the creator of the Ritual Rank?"
"Yes, but not really," said Xzavion.
"What do you mean?" James was puzzled.
Xzavion explained, "The Ritual Rank exists to give back to the world. If one obtains many
boons, then one won’t directly enter the Transcendental Bliss Rank. Instead, one would
enter the Ritual Rank. After entering the Ritual Rank, one will return everything to the
world."
James asked, "So basically, I'll be swallowed by the Dark World and eventually perish?"
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtXzavion nodded, then elaborated, 'Yes. It's difficult for Xayal to collect enough energy from
the Dark World. After entering the Ritual Rank, you'll perish and become one with the Dark
World. Then, Xayal will absorb your energy."
"Throughout the ages, quite a few powerhouses have entered the Ritual Rank. After
integrating into the Dark World, it enhances their Genesis Paths and overall strength.
However, Xayal set up a formation. Once a living being at the Ritual Rank perishes, the
energy won't return to the Dark World. Instead, he absorbs them."
James' brows furrowed. Then, he proceeded to ask a series of questions.
"Is it an inevitable fate for me to become energy absorbed by Xayal? Has anyone who
entered the Ritual Rank ever made it to the Transcendental Bliss Rank? Was anyone ever
able to avoid being absorbed by Xayal?"
Xzavion shook his head.
"I'm not certain about before Xayal appeared, but after he did, all of the powerhouses that
entered the Ritual Rank eventually were absorbed by him.”
James asked, "How can I change my fate? You appeared as soon as I entered the Ritual
Rank. You must know how to avoid being absorbed. That’s why you came to me, right?"
"Correct." Xzavion nodded
James felt slightly relieved by Xzavion's answer. He would have a chance if there were a
way to avoid being absorbed by Xayal.
"Unfortunately, it's not going to be easy. You must walk an extraordinary path of
cultivation."
James asked, "What kind of path?"
Xzavion took out an ancient book, and it flew over to James.
"Everything's recorded in this book. Take it, and carefully read through it."
James reached out for the book.
Afterward, Xzavion disappeared from the spot.

James was unbothered by his departure. He flipped open the book and read through the
pages. After seeing the contents recorded inside the book, his expression gradually
became serious.
After completely reading through the book, he heaved a deep breath.
"I see." James waved his hand, and a powerful force emerged from his palm. The ancient
book was burnt into ashes and disappeared into nothingness.
"I'll have to die to survive. I must integrate my divine soul into heaven and earth
inscriptions to avoid perishing in this era. Then, I'll be able to appear in another era in the
form of inscriptions."
"This damn Ritual Rank."
James could not help but curse at his unfortunate fate.
It would be feasible if he only needed to reach the next rank before Xayal appeared.
However, Xayal was causing trouble, so doing so would be impossible. His only option was
the one Xzavion had given him.
James stayed within the time formation and adjusted his aura. His current condition was
unstable, and he was quite weak. Thus, he had to wait until his cultivation base stabilized.
Once that happens, he could exert his greatest potential and kill Xayvion.
