Chapter 2339
The Dragon Energy from the Dragon Vein was extremely potent. However, James‘ rank had risen to the
Immortal Ascension Fifth Stair. If he wanted to make another breakthrough, he would need an enormous
amount of energy.
Even though he had Novenary Golden Body Siddhi and was fast at absorbing and refining energy, he
would need half a year to reach the Immortal Ascension Sixth Stair at his current speed.
Moreover, this was a situation with sufficient energy. He also needed topress his rank and ensure
that he reached the extreme at each rank. This made it difficult for him to reach the Immortal Ascension
Sixth Stair.
He forgot everything and concentrated solely on cultivating.
In the blink of an eye, half a year had passed.
During this half–year of cultivation, James‘ rank had reached the peak of the Immortal Ascension Fifth
Stair. He was one step away from entering the Immortal Ascension Sixth Stair. Nheless, he chose to
compact his rank.
He forciblypressed the Immortal Ascension Fifth Stairte–stage into the Immortal Ascension Fifth
Stair middle–stage.
At this point, the Dragon Energy emanating from beneath the rock was already quite sparse.
James slowly opened his eyes and took his time exhaling a mouthful of impurities. He stood up from the
rock, stretched a little, and muttered, “As the rank advances, it bes increasingly difficult to want to
advance it again. If I didn’t enter the Dragon Abyss, and simply cultivated methodically, I might not reach
the Immortal Ascension Sixth Stair even after ten years.”
The others stopped cultivating one by one at this point, as the Dragon Energy had mostly been
absorbed. If they wanted to return to this ce, they would have to wait fifty years.
Quintina looked at James, her face beaming with pride, and said, “I’ve already reached the Immortal
Ascension Ninth Stair. How about you?”
James said, “I’m only at the Immortal Ascension Fifth Stair middle–stage.”
“You’re kidding.” Quintina looked perplexed. She said, “At your current rank, half a year of cultivation is
sufficient for a breakthrough. Why are you still at the Immortal Ascension Fifth Stair middle–stage?”
James exined with a smile, “Because I’m constantlypressing my rank and True Essence in order
to make my True Essence purer and denser.”
“Alright.”
Quintina did not say anything else.
This time, Henry and Diney had also made significant progress. Their strength had improved.
As they were about to leave, an elder approached them from nearby.
The elder was dressed in a grey robe. He looked a little old. His face was wrinkled. His hair was slightly
long and almost entirely white, with only a few ck hairs. He had a long beard.
When he appeared, James and the others all looked wary. The elder looked at James and the others
with a smile as he walked over
Quintina nced at him. With confusion on her face, she asked, “You… Who are you?”

Gently stroking his white beard, the elder said with a smile, “I am Xozarth Laldraxi.”
“Huh?”
Upon hearing this name, Quintina immediately eximed, “Sir, y–you’re the guardian of the Dragon
Abyss, the elder of the Dragon Race, Xozarth Laldarxi?”
Quintina had heard of Xozarth. He was a powerhouse who had been around since antiquity and stood
guard at the Dragon Abyss. If her father met him, he would also have to regard him as his superior.
To Quintina’s understanding, Xozarth’s strength was terrifying. His rank was so high that it was
unfathomable.
With a hint of resignation on his face, Xozarth said, “What guardian? I’m simply meditating in seclusion in
the Dragon Abyss. Now I can’t even defend, the Dragon Vein of the Dragon Abyss. What a disgrace to
the word ‘guardian‘.”
James looked at Xozarth and asked, “Sir, what do you mean by that?”
Xozarth said, “An outsider came here and wanted to move this ce’s Dragon Vein, but I can’t even stop
him.”
