Chapter 2366


    James weighed the pros and cons in his mind.


    Defeating Lucifer would mean putting a stop to the Second Cmity.


    He would have to ept the challenge no matter how things stood.


    “Excellent. Since that’s the case, let’s begin. I’ll broadcast both matches live on the inte.”


    After speaking, Lucifer casually waved his hand.

    A woman immediately rushed over, took out her phone, and began filming. Lucifer’s ount


    immediately began broadcasting the battle globally.


    Lucifer was very famous on Earth, and had over 10,000,000 followers.


    As soon as his live broadcast began, it attracted many viewers who were beasts.


    “Hello, it’s me, Lucifer. Wrymstead’s Emperor and the King of Sol, James, has appeared on Mount


    M to challenge the Elephant King. If he wins, the beast army will withdraw from Sol’s Southwest


    Province.


    “If he defeats the Elephant King, he’ll go against me. If he also wins against me, the beasts will noty


    hands on humans from today onward. If he loses, James will join our n.”


    Lucifer’s voice was carried forth clearly.


    Many beasts paid attention to the live broadcast.


    Meanwhile, Marcello was in her mansion in Bane City.


    Marcello said furiously, “Damn it. Does Lucifer have no shame?! I worked very hard and even gave


    away my Supreme Token to gain James’ favor, hoping he’d turn to us when things get desperate. Yet,


    Lucifer is recruiting him through such a dirty tactic.”


    Beside her, Jace said calmly, “Calm down, Marcello. James’ body was reconstituted by the Natal


    Priomordial Spirit that used to belong to Lucifer’s father. His fate and Karma are entangled with the


    Hadean n’s.”


    At that moment, James stood in ce at the foot of Mount M. He looked at the thuggish Elephant


    King that stood at over 200 centimeters tall. He had flushed skin and a full head of ck hair, giving


    him a brutish appearance.


    Suddenly, extremely powerful energy was released by the Elephant King.


    As soon as the energy was unleashed, James immediately felt crushed under the pressure. It left


    James out of breath.


    “Such tremendous strength.”James could not help but gasp in astonishment.


    As expected from a beast at the Mage Rank’s Second Stage, the Elephant King’s energy alone made


    him feel like he had lost the battle before it began.


    He would never be a match against the Elephant King without his extraordinary martial arts skills. The


    Elephant King could possibly even kill him in one move.


    The Elephant King spoke with arrogance and confidence. “I won’t show you mercy, human. I’m going to


    tear you to pieces.”


    James secretly brought out the Sacrilegious Ascension, and the True Essence hidden within his


    meridians stirred. The tremendous force broke his spine.


    Immediately, powerful Empyrean Spiritual Energy entered his body and rapidly coalesced to form a


    new spine.


    James’ strength was now greatly enhanced.


    He knew he would not be a match for the Elephant King if he did not use the Sacrilegous Ascension


    because the divide between their cultivation ranks was too great. This was the only way he knew how


    to give himself a fighting chance.


    From his first vertebra, all the way down to his thirty third vertebra, his spine shattered to pieces


    instantly.


    Using Empyrean Spiritual Energy, his entire spine was reformed. At that moment, he gained immense


    strength. His energy assimted with the Empyrean Spiritual Energy. He felt like he embodied both


    heaven and earth.


    Although his cultivation rank was not high, he had condensed his True Essence every step of the way.


    This made his strength far beyond those of the same rank.


    After he used the Sacrilegous Ascension, his strength doubled, and he no longer felt pressured by the


    Elephant King, who was a Second Stage Mage.


    “This guy…”


    Lucifer sensed James’ energy continuously increasing and snickered. “This guy sure is something. He


    learned the closely-kept Divine Ape Race’s signature martial art skill. He definitely made full use of his


    special physical body.”


    After activating the Sacrilegous Ascension, James stretched out his hand and gestured for his


    opponent to attack. “Make your move, Elephant King.”


    The Elephant King also noticed James’ energy had grown more potent, but he was not afraid.


    “I’ll show you pure physical strength.”


    After speaking, the Elephant King’s body flickered, and he immediately appeared in front of James.


    Despite his brutish and burly appearance, the Elephant King was quick on his feet. He moved as fast


    as lightning and instantly appeared before James, swinging his massive fist at James.


    His fist was imbued with destructive force. His attack drew in the surrounding Empyrean Spiritual


    Energy and struck James.
