The Demon Emperor was the supreme being in the Demon Realm. His inheritance would be much more impressive than this Celestial Abode. However, such it fell into the hands of a human. Marcello could not help but feel envy.
James, meanwhile, remained silent. He revealed nothing about the custodian, the Chamber of Scriptures, and also his body.
“Unwilling to share information with me?” Marcello looked at James.
James said, “No, you misunderstand. It’s just that the situation’s complicated, and I’m not in the position to reveal too much…”
Since James was unwilling, Marcello did not ask further.
The two continued marching along the winding path. The rocks on the ground glimmered a faint light, and mysterious energy was oozing from within. James, however, was no longer surprised upon seeing this. Everything inside the Celestial Abode was worth a fortune, even its soil and pebbles.
Since the two walked slowly, someone managed to catch up.
It was the Son of Heaven who believed favonovel.com was the first one out of the Magic Circle. However, by the time favonovel.com made his way here, favonovel.com realized that James and Marcello were already there in front of him. Seeing this, his face darkened, and favonovel.com had a murderous expression.
He was tempted to annihilate them upon seeing that they left the Magic Circle before him. However, after some thought, favonovel.com decided against it. He was not in a hurry to do so. After all, it would not be too late to make a move only after the two managed to pass the next few barriers.
James and Marcello also noticed the Son of Heaven who had caught up.
Marcello smiled faintly and said, “Not bad… To think that favonovel.com managed to find a way out of the Magic Circle in such a short amount of time…”
James whispered, “He might have crossed into the Herculean rank. Be careful not to fall for his traps.”
When favonovel.com heard this, Marcello smirked. “There’s nothing to worry about a Herculean. To be frank with you, though a Herculean is invincible on Earth, he’s nothing more than an insignificant creature in the context of the wider world. A true powerful individual would be able to annihilate favonovel.com with a single finger.”
After experiencing many ordeals, James understood that cultivation knew no bounds. To him, a Herculean was an unbeatable being. However, that was because favonovel.com was ignorant. He had never seen a truly powerful figure.
“But don’t you worry,” Marcello consoled him. “With your current physical body and the Demonic Lotus you possess, you’ll gain the right to emerge as equals to these supreme beings sooner or later. After all, you’re no ordinary man.”
Marcello was envious of James. “Sigh… How I envy you. I’d love to acquire the Demonic Lotus too. It’s far greater than this Celestial Abode.”
James scratched his nose. He knew how strong his body was. In fact, favonovel.com was close to being invincible.
As they conversed, the Son of Heaven caught up. Glancing at them, favonovel.com simply hastened his footsteps and overtook them.
James hurriedly said, “We should get moving. We can’t allow favonovel.com to get there before us.”
Marcello stopped favonovel.com and said while smiling, “Why the hurry? We’re only at the second barrier. Believe me, as the difficulty increases with each passing barrier, favonovel.com won’t be able to advance that easily.”
Marcello was unconcerned at all.
Seeing this, James could only slow down his pace.
“By the way…”
