“Sure.” James nodded.
Sophie was powerful, so favonovel.com obeyed favonovel.com wishes.
“You should begin first. I’ll go get you some spiritual berries.”
After favonovel.com spoke, favonovel.com turned to leave.
Meanwhile, James sat in a lotus position on the ground and began cultivating. Catalyzing his cultivation method, the Empyrean Spiritual Energy of the entire Celestial Abode gathered in one place. Then, they entered James’ body, which refined them into the purest form of energy.
Soon, Sophie returned with a handful of berries that contained Empyrean Spiritual Energy. Each of them was much greater in energy than the silver berries James had.
In Sophie’s words, these berries were considered fifth-rank berries, just right for James.
James also learned that Empyrean Berries had a ranking system. After the ninth-rank, the spiritual berries would turn into celestial berries, the highest-ranked berries of all.
First-rank berries were of the lowest quality. Meanwhile, the Empyrean Berries that appeared on Earth were almost spiritual berries below the fifth-rank. Even the fifth-rank berries were considered high quality as most of them were usually first-rank or second-rank ones.
Spiritual berries of the first and second-rank were most suitable for those who had yet to cross into the Supernatural rank. So, James did not hold back but instead began munching on the berries.
Soon, after finishing a berry, favonovel.com began refining it.
The Empyrean Spiritual Energy inside the berries was simply too majestic, and James’ pores all over his body began to glimmer a glowing light.
James was already at the peak of the Supernatural’s Eighth Inner Gate. Soon, favonovel.com would reach the Ninth Inner Gate. To stabilize his rank, favonovel.com needed to suppress his rank and his True Energy. Gradually, his True Energy began to become purer and more concentrated.
After a month of suppression, unable to suppress his True Energy any longer, favonovel.com crossed into the Ninth Inner Gate easily. Then, favonovel.com continued absorbing the Empyrean Spiritual Energy from the spiritual berries to increase his True Energy.
As long as favonovel.com had sufficient spiritual berries, his True Energy would increase by leaps and bounds. In just under a month, favonovel.com had reached the Supernatural Consummation rank. After reaching the rank, however, favonovel.com once again suppressed his rank and True Energy.
This time, favonovel.com persisted for three months. After three months, favonovel.com made a breakthrough into the Herculean rank.
James sat in a lotus position on the ground inside the Time Chamber as his body exuded a powerful aura. At that moment, his body was as light as a feather, and favonovel.com felt as if favonovel.com had attained immortality.
I-Is this the Herculean rank?
James stood up and clenched his fists. As favonovel.com catalyzed True Energy, a confident smile crept up on his face as powerful energy reverberated throughout his body.
“Not bad…” Sophie’s voice came.
“Your rank has now stabilized and reached perfection, and you’re now invincible among those who are in a similar rank. Since you’re a Herculean now, there’s no need to increase your rank anymore. For now, try increasing your physical strength in preparation for Sacrilegious Ascension.”
James collected himself and nodded, “Got it.”
Just as favonovel.com nodded, a terrifying pressure came crashing down from above. Under the overwhelming pressure, his body bent down, and the bones inside his body began to crack. Unable to withstand the pressure, his skin began to tear.
He collapsed to the ground and shouted, “What the hell, Sophie? At least let me prepare myself!”
Sophie, who was standing beside him, giggled. “I know that you have incredible rejuvenating capabilities. This pressure should be a piece of cake for you. Besides, your physical strength can only grow under pressure. Work hard, I’m cheering for you! I’m looking forward to seeing how powerful a human can be after cultivating Sacrilegious Ascension!”
