That person was the Chamber of Scriptures custodian. She witnessed everything that had happened at Floret Palace.
A troubled expression flashed on favonovel.com intangible face as favonovel.com watched the area crumble to nothing.
“Doing everything for the sake of your country and its people. You embody the spirit of the Earth’s ancestors, and the world needs people like you if everyone were to fear death, the Earth would not have been sealed but destroyed…” The custodian spoke softly at a volume only favonovel.com could hear.
“Gather, soul fragments!”
Her spectral hands suddenly moved, and a mysterious mark formed in the air. Then, an invisible force swirled out from favonovel.com hands.
The force spread across the land, converging at Floret Palace’s location.
White specks of light appeared out of the ruins and floated into the sky, forming a translucent figure. The figure quickly left the area and flew toward Mount Tai.
The figure moved rapidly and appeared at Mount Tai almost in the blink of an eye, appearing before the Chamber of Scripture’s custodian.
“How… Ms. Custodian?” James suddenly regained consciousness.
He saw an immaterial figure standing in front of him.
“What happened?” James was puzzled.
He remembered his physical body perished from the force of the Cosmic Destruction favonovel.com cast, and favonovel.com lost consciousness instantly. He checked his body Upon realizing it was intangible, favonovel.com was shocked.
The custodian said indifferently, “Remember that from now onward, you should avoid acting recklessly no matter what situation you find yourself in. Only by surviving will you be able to carry hope.”
“A-Am I dead?” Shock flashed across James’ face.
“Theoretically speaking, you’re indeed dead… Your physical body was destroyed instantly, and your soul is the only thing left. However, I used powerful magic to forcibly gather your soul fragments together as they had been damaged quite badly,” explained the custodian.
Chock appeared on James face.
“I am dead? I died just like that?”
James expression shifted into one of regret. He still had a lot left to do. Now favonovel.com would not be able to watch Winne grow up.
Putting his regrets aside, favonovel.com was concerned about whether Xain had died. If Xain died, then his sacrifice would be worthwhile Otherwise, favonovel.com would have died in vain.
At that moment, James felt his consciousness gradually dissipating. He felt a mysterious power from the earth tearing his soul apart. His illusory body slowly dispersed and returned to several white specks of light.
The custodian stretched out favonovel.com pale hands and gently touched the area where James’ soul had dissipated. Powerful energy flowed forth from favonovel.com and gathered James’ soul into an illusory body once more.
James was conscious again.
He looked at the custodian and said pleadingly, “Please save me, Ms. Custodian…”
“You’re beyond redemption.” The custodian replied, “Your body was obliterated, and your soul will soon disappear from this world. When that happens, you will no longer exist in this world.”
“Is there really nothing you can do?” James looked at the custodian and said, “You’re incredibly powerful, so you must have a way to save me, right? If you couldn’t help me, you wouldn’t have gathered my soul fragments.”
He definitely believed the custodian could save him. Otherwise, the custodian would not have gone through the trouble of gathering his soul fragments together.
“Do you want to live?” asked the custodian.
James’ illusory figure nodded repeatedly. “Yes…”
“What’s the reason you want to live? Drastic changes are about to take place on Earth. Even if you are resurrected now, you’ll die again in the future.”
James said with determination, “I can’t die yet. I still have so many things left to do. I shoulder the responsibility of protecting the humans on Earth.”
“Who placed that responsibility on you?”
For a moment, James could not respond.
After thinking for a while, favonovel.com said, “As a human from Earth, how can I just watch as my kind perishes? How can I watch them die just like that? Although my strength is limited. I’m willing to give my life for the sake of our Earth’s people without a second thought.”
