Chapter 2495
After cultivating at the Labhranns’ holy site for some time, he had reached the Immortal Ascension’s Ninth Stair.
Now, he was only a step away from reaching the Mage Rank.
Meanwhile, Sophie had made arrangements for his Yogacara, which was a wave of invincible Sword Energy left
behind by a powerful figure of the Primeval Age.
After making a breakthrough, he left the holy site and returned to the accommodation prepared by the
Labhranns.
It was an independent courtyard. Upon his arrival, he noticed Henrik and Qusai happily chit-chatting away. Wearing
a saffron robe, the chubby-looking Henrik was leaning against his chair. With his feet on the table, he said lazily,
“Brielle’s tournament is just around the corner. I wonder if James can make it on time.”
Beside him, Qusai, who was wearing a huge robe, nibbled on a tiny blade of grass, saying coolly, “I don’t think
James is interested in Brielle.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“Indeed.” Henrik said, “Brielle’s not an ordinary woman. If she was, I wouldn’t want James to marry her
either.”
Hearing this, Qusai’s curiosity was piqued. He leaned forward and asked, “I heard that the Labhranns aren’t simple.
Although the Azurean Clan and the Hadean Clan are the only formidable forces in the Demon Realm, the Labhranns
are held in high status as well. They once had a glorious past.”
Henrik nodded and said, “But of course! Few know of the Labhranns’ history. The Labhrann Clan was once a
terrifying force. Even now, they still aren’t a force to be reckoned with. The Hadean Clan is desperately trying to
broker a marriage between Lucifer Menachem and Brielle because they wish to associate themselves with the
Labhranns.”
James overheard the conversation.
He asked, “Did the Labhranns have a glorious past?”
Hearing this, Henrik and Qusai turned their heads.
Henrik stood up and said, “James, you’ve left your closed-door meditation?”
“Yes.”
James nodded and walked over to them before taking a seat.
Qusai greeted him, “James.”
James asked again, “Are the Labhranns powerful?”
“Very.”
Speaking of the Labhranns’ history, Henrik was exhilarated. He began narrating non-stop. “There are countless
races and clans in the Demon Realm, and those strongest among them are the Hadean Clan, the Azurean Clan, and
the Labhranns.
“During the Primordial Age, the Labhranns once produced a Grand Emperor who possessed enormous strength. He
reigned supreme in the Demon Realm for eighty million years. However, something unexpected happened, which
brought about the fall of this Grand Emperor.”
Hearing this, James was somewhat shocked.
A Grand Emperor was a being who stood at the top of the power pyramid. Since the Labhranns were able

Henrik scanned his surroundings. Realizing they were alone, he whispered, “I heard from my master that the
powerful figures of the Labhranns received half of a Curse Magic in the Primordial Age. Rumors say that they
cultivated the Curse Magic to perfection. This brought about the misfortune that generated their downfall.”
James knew about Curse Magics.
“What is this Curse Magic?”
Henrik shook his head and said, “I don’t know either. I only know that this Curse Magic originated in the Primeval
Age. Even then, it was a terrifying cultivation method.
“The Curse Magic had been long lost. That’s why the Curse Magic controlled by the families and clans of the Demon
Race are all incomplete. However, even an incomplete Curse Magic possesses devastating power.”
Henrik described the Curse Magic. However, he did not know the details either.
James did not ask any further questions.
“By the way…” Qusai asked, “You’re about to cross into the Mage Rank, right?”
“Yep.”
