Chapter 2049
James had no idea what the custodian was trying to do.
Still, he stood up and obediently followed her.
The custodian stepped into the air, walking at a slow pace because she was afraid James could not
keep up with her.
James resolutely followed behind her.

After passing through many copsed mountains and dried-up rivers, James saw a glow before him. As
they got closer, the glow intensified, and James recognized it was mes that he saw.
The mountain range was encircled by an inferno, which burned with an eerie, white me. The sight
was slightly unsettling.
The custodian stopped outside the mountain range that was surrounded by mes. James also halted
in his tracks.
Although they were standing far from the inferno, James could feel the burning heat, and drops of
sweat kept forming on his forehead.
He was shocked because no ordinary mes had an effect on him at his rank.
“What is this ce?” asked James.
The custodian replied, “This is the me Energy of a particrly strong person which he left behind
from ancient times. Even after so many years, his me Energy burns ever so brightly. I brought you
here to use the mes to refine your True Energy.”
“From ancient times?” James was shocked.
How powerful did this ancestor have to be to leave behind these roaring mes that were still burning
long after his death?
“Will this burn me to death, Miss?”
He feared the heat would be worse since he could already feel it from afar.
The custodian gently waved her hand and said, “You’ll be fine. You have a strong body. Although the
mes are intense, they cannot destroy your body. At most, you’re going to feel a little bit of pain. After
you enter the mes, don’t try to resist them. Instead, allow the mes to enter your body first before
you activate your True Energy to fight it. It’ll allow your True Energy to improve.”
After learning he would not be burned to death, James sighed in relief.
James was prepared to risk it all to acquire the Celestial Abode and be stronger.
He strode forward and felt the scorching heat as he got closer. Before he stepped into the mes, he
felt like he was inside a sauna, and his whole body was drenched in sweat.
However, the heat was still tolerable.
He continued advancing into the mes.
When he walked into the mes, the sweat on his body began to evaporate, and his skin began to
scald. James felt excruciating pain all over his body.
His face was distorted from the pain.
“H-How is this a little bit of pain?! This feels worse than death.”
James gritted his teeth in agony.
Fwoosh!
At that moment, a column of mes swept toward him.
James did not resist it.
The mes were magical and entered his body through his pores.
His flesh was singed as soon as the mes entered his body. At that moment, James felt like he was
on the brink of death.
He immediately sat in a lotus position on the ground and mobilized his True Energy to resist the mes
entering his body.
During the confrontation of energies, the mes continuously burned away at his True Energy.
“Incredible.”
Although James was enduring intense pain, he was thrilled to feel his True Energy being refined
through the mes.
He sat in a lotus position and began using the power of his mes to purify his True Energy. The
miraculous mes gradually made his True Energy purer.
Afterward, James began absorbing the Empyrean Spiritual Energy around him and augmenting his
True Energy with it.
Once, twice, three times, and ten times…
After repeatedly increasing his True Energy, he could sense that he had reached his limit.
“Break!”
He mobilized the True Energy throughout his body.
His True Energy overflowed from his meridians, surged through his body, and shattered the invincible
Inner Gate in his body.
Boom!
A loud sound came from his body as the Inner Gate fell apart.
“I did it!”
