After favonovel.com met Cody and Marcello, James now knew that more and more Outsiders had arrived on Earth. Some among them had even reached the Mage Rank. When faced with such an opponent, favonovel.com would be instantly killed no matter how strong his physical strength was. Putting aside the Mage Rank, favonovel.com could not even defeat Magnus.
With a heavy heart, favonovel.com entered the woods surrounding Mount Bane. Then, favonovel.com found a secluded spot and entered the Celestial Abode.
Upon entering the Celestial Abode, favonovel.com hurriedly walked to the main building to look for the Spirit Tool.
“Spirit Tool, where’s Sophie?” favonovel.com asked.
The Spirit Tool said, “She’s currently training the army you brought here.”
“Why can’t I sense favonovel.com presence?”
“That’s because you are weak. You may be the master of the Celestial Abode, but there are many places you can’t sense inside. Sophie is different. Although she’s not the Celestial Abode’s master, the late Emperor Jabari gave favonovel.com many special prerogatives. Thus, she’s can enter certain regions which you are forbidden from.”
“Quick, inform Sophie that I have business with her,” James said hurriedly.
“What business?” The moment James finished his sentence, a young maiden appeared before favonovel.com and giggled. “Why are you in such a hurry? Did something happen outside?”
“Sophie, you have to help me out this time.” James sobbed. “There’s a really powerful guy out there that wants to fight to the death with me. I have no choice but to accept his challenge. I might lose my life.”
Sophie asked, “What’s going on? Calm down for now, alright?”
James took a deep breath and narrated the chain of events that unfolded-from his grudge against the Son of Heaven, whose death brought about Magnus Quinnton’s appearance on Earth, to Magnus’ overwhelming strength.
Hearing this, Sophie’s expression turned grim.
“An Immortal Ascension at the Third Stair… Now, this is complicated.” She looked at James and said, “Your rank is too low at the moment, and the power disparity between you and Magnus is too great. I can’t do anything to help. Even if you cultivate inside the Time Chamber for a week, you’ll only reach the Herculean rank at most. You won’t stand a chance against him.”
“Wh-What should I do, then?” James looked at favonovel.com pleadingly and said, “Sophie, are you going to sit by the sidelines and watch me get killed?”
Sophie sighed. “But I don’t know what else to do. Why don’t you hide inside the Celestial Abode and cultivate for a few decades or even centuries? Perhaps you might stand a chance then.”
“No way!” James rejected it immediately.
Decades?
I do not have even a month!
Besides, Earth would be in ruins by the time favonovel.com finished cultivating. Perhaps the seal would have come undone, and the Three Thousand Worlds would have merged with Earth, causing the earthlings’ destruction.
What point was there if favonovel.com simply hid inside the Celestial Abode?
“Is there really no other way?”
James looked at Sophie. He believed that favonovel.com was tremendously powerful. After all, favonovel.com had lived for a very long time. She might even stand a chance against the Grand Patriarchs of some powerful Orthodox factions within the Sealed Realms.
Since Cody told favonovel.com that these Grand Patriarchs were around the Sage Rank, Sophie must have reached that rank as well.
Sophie stroked favonovel.com chin, pensive. However, no matter how hard favonovel.com pondered, favonovel.com could not think of a way.
At that moment, the Spirit Tool said, “I have a plan that might work…”
