Chapter 1897


    James did not expect Thea to be here at Mount Thunder Pass.


    “Where’s Winnie? Who’s taking care of her now?”


    Thea exined, 1 left her in my mother’s care. I was worried about you and didn’t want you to deal with


    this alone. I came here to lend you a helping hand.”

    Upon hearing this, James had to suppress his tears. He considered himself the luckiest man in the


    world to have married Thea.


    “By the way, how did the cultivation go?” Thea asked.


    “It went well, I guess.”


    James nodded slightly and said, “I’ve already broken free of the first shackle and am now on my way to


    breaking the second one. Based on my current speed, I’ll need about three months to aplish that.”


    “That’s great.”


    For the next few days, they began cultivating at Mount Thunder Pass.


    Five dayster, Diney arrived.


    Upon seeing Thea, she froze momentarily before walking over to them, saying, “James… Thea..


    The two who were in the midst of absorbing the Phoenix Essence’s strength stopped. Thea nced at


    the gorgeous-looking Diney before looking at James. James, on the other hand, only smiled.


    Diney walked over to them and said, “James, I’ve dealt with the affairs of the military region.”


    “Mhm.” James nodded.


    “By the way, something big happened outside.”


    “What happened?” James asked.


    Over the past few days, he had been busy cultivating. Besides, his phone had died. Therefore, he had


    no idea what was going on outside.


    Wearing a grim expression, Diney said, “A fierce battle broke out on Mount Bane a few days ago.”


    “What battle?”


    James’ curiosity was piqued,


    The Void Sect was the one upying Mount Bane, and the Grand Priestess of the Void Sect was at


    the Supernatural stage. Who would dare provoke them at such a critical moment?


    Diney said, 1 don’t know either. I only know that a group of people appeared on Mount Bane and


    fought a battle against the Grand Priestess of the Void Sect, who retreated from Mount Bane after


    being defeated. Meanwhile, the one who announced their victory called himself Conrad Titus, the


    Grand Priest.” Diney narrated the events that had unfolded to them.


    Upon hearing this, James’ expression turned grim. He knew how powerful the Grand Priestess of the


    Void Sect was after she defeated Tyrus with a single move. Now that she was defeated, he could not


    help but be stunned


    “Where does this guy called Conrad came from?”


    Diney shook her head and said, “I don’t know.”


    James asked once more, “Anything else besides this?”


    “Nope, the Grand Priestess of the Void Sect disappeared without a trace after she retreated from


    Mount Bane.”


    “Mhm.”


    James said.


    Now that another powerful figure had appeared, the situation was turning grim. He had to increase his


    cultivation base as soon as possible and cross into the Supernatural stage. However, based on his


    current speed, he would require at least a year.


    He could not wait for a year. A lot could happen in the meantime.


    So, James chose not to pay any heed to the affairs of the outside world and continued his closed-door


    meditation at Mount Thunder Pass.


    Alongside Thea, they absorbed the power of the Phoenix Essence together. Meanwhile, Diney


    entered the pristine forest nearby Mount Thunder Pass in search of a berry that contained Empyrean


    Spiritual Energy.


    In the blink of an eye, three months passed.


    After three months’ worth of cultivation, James could now sense the second shackle inside his body
