Chapter 1027


    Maxine briefly introduced the concept of True Energy Materialization to James.


    True Energy Materialization was the process of releasing True Energy, controlling it, and modifying it


    into any shape.


    "Try it out, James."

    Maxine did not know what rank James currently was, nor did James himself.


    That was because no one had exined to him the differences between ranks.He only knew that by


    opening up his meridians, he had made a breakthrough into the fifth rank.


    James catalyzed True Energy.


    The energy flowed through the meridians in his arm and gathered in his palm.


    Then, white light glowed from it, but the light dissipated almost immediately.


    "What the hell?"


    James was puzzled.


    Maxine exined, "James, you should currently be at peak fifth rank.


    You’re just a step away from reaching the sixth rank.


    However, judging by the potency of your True Energy, I believe it’s only a matter of time.


    Meanwhile, during your battle with Donovan, you only managed to defeat him because of the potency


    of your True Energy, which even exceeded that of a sixth-rank martial artist, and the support of the


    Invincible Body Siddhi."


    "I see...I’m only at peak fifth rank."


    James was disappointed.


    Though he absorbed the True Energy of a peak seventh-rank martial artist, he had only reached peak


    fifth-rank.


    James’ expression made Maxineugh.


    "Be content with what you have, James.Throughout history, you''re perhaps the only one to have


    reached such a rank at your age.Besides, you haven’tpletely absorbed True Energy yet.I could


    see some residue in your limbs.Again, as I said, it’s only a matter of time before you reach the sixth


    rank.Two months is all you need."


    Upon hearing this, a grin crept up on James’ face.


    Maxine continued, "Your True Energy is now strong enough.Next, you''ll have to focus on martial


    arts.The Blithes Fist of Abomination is extremely powerful.Even grandpa is fearful of it.In fact, he had


    two objectives in mind when he decided to marry me off to the Blithes: One, Enter into an alliance with


    the Blithes.Two: Steal the Blithes Fist of Abomination.You have to work hard from now on."


    "Indeed." James nodded.


    He knew the power of the Blithes Fist of Abomination.


    If he could master the Tenth Fist, he would be undefeatable.


    Cynthia sighed and said enviously, "You guys have managed to cultivate true Energy, but look at me! I


    can’t cultivate it no matter how hard I try.I’m so useless."


    Maxine consoled her, "There’s no need to rush things.It won’t be easy cultivating True Energy.After all,


    there would be grandmasters everywhere if things were that simple.You have an aptitude for


    cultivating, so I believe you can do it if you try hard enough.Once you manage to cultivate True Energy,


    you can cultivate the Moonlit Flowers on Cliffsides’ Edge alongside James."Speaking of which, Maxine


    looked at James and asked, "Have you eaten the Sacred Fire Fig?"


    James shook his head.


    "Not yet."


    Maxine said, "You should eat it as soon as possible.Your True Energy is now strong enough.If you can


    convert them to True Yang Energy, the power of the Blithes Fist of Abomination will be greatly


    boosted."


    "Mhm." James nodded.


    Quincy who had been listening intently to the conversation yawned.She was not interested in martial


    arts at all.She stood up and said, "I’m tired after working for a whole day.I still have another day of work


    at thepany tomorrow."


    She stood up and headed upstairs.


    "I’m tired too.I’m going back to my room.You guys go on."


    Cynthia stood up and headed upstairs too.


    Soon, only Maxine, Thea, and James remained.


    Cough! Cough! Maxine suddenly coughed.She covered her mouth but vomited a mouthful of blood,


    which stained her palms.


    "Are you alright?" Thea asked.
