Chapter 2448


    Even though the current environment was detrimental to the human race, James was determined to


    work through it.


    “By the way…” James suddenly thought of something and asked, “What rank were the powerhouses


    that were fighting just now? The aftermath of their battle was terrifying! They destroyed everything


    within a several million kilometer range.”


    Sophie replied, “It’s a battle between powerhouses at the Divine Rank’s Third Stage. Those individuals


    were very close to bing Grand Emperors. It seems there are a few of them hanging around the


    area. It’s possible a great treasure has appeared somewhere, attracting these amazing powerhouses


    to fight over it.”


    “They’re at the Divine Rank’s Third Stage and are very close to bing Grand Emperors, you say?”


    James sucked in a sharp breath.


    “Aren’t we in the Mortal Dimension? Why are powerhouses from the Divine Dimension here?”


    “I’m not sure, but be extremely careful. This area is full of dangers, and you might die if you act


    recklessly.”


    “Then I’d better get going and leave this ce as soon as possible.”


    James did not dare to linger in the area a moment longer.


    Powerhouses at the Divine Rank’s Third Stage who were at the cusp of bing Grand Emperors


    were fighting around the area. They could kill him several times over with the flick of a finger.


    “Don’t leave.”


    Sophie replied, “It must be an exceptional treasure for such powerful people to be fighting over it. Let’s


    have a look. Who knows? We might get lucky.”


    “Huh?”


    Shocked, James asked, “Get lucky? Are you joking, Ms. Sophie? It’s a fight between powerhouses at


    the Divine Rank’s Third Stage. I’d be walking straight into my grave.”


    Sophie replied indifferently, “Pfft. Why are you worrying about them when I’m here? Chill out.”


    “Hmm? Aren’t you scared of umting Karma by helping me?”


    Inside the Celestial Abode, Sophie was seated in the gazebo in the City Lord’s Mansion’s backyard.


    She rolled her eyes and replied, “You’re still hung up on that? I almost got killed by the Heavenly Path


    trying to figure out how to help you get the Five Elements of Genesis. Fortunately, Emperor Jabari’s


    soul hadn’tpletely dissipated, and he protected me. Otherwise, I’d already be dead by now. Right


    now, our fates. are strongly bound together. As such, I’ve nothing to worry about.”


    Startled, James asked, “Are you serious? You almost died? Why didn’t you tell me about it?”


    “What’s the use of telling you?”


    Haah!


    James took a deep breath, then put that thought away. He tilted his head. “So does that mean you can


    directly involve yourself and help kill the enemies that stand in my way?”


    Sophie shook her head and said, “Nope. If you’re always depending on me, it’ll be detrimental to your


    growth.”


    “Fine.” James pouted disappointedly.


    “However, I’ll help you this once. So go ahead and check it out. I’m curious to see how strong they are


    and what they’re fighting over.”


    Sophie’s voice came from the Celestial Abode.


    “Okay.” James readily agreed.


    With Sophie providing him support, he had nothing to fear.


    However, he was still in the dark about Sophie’s cultivation rank and just had to ask her, “Ms. Sophie,


    are you already a Grand Emperor?”


    Sophie said, “It’s not that easy to reach that stage. Only a handful of people have be Grand


    Emperors since ancient times. Although I’m not yet a Grand Emperor, I’m very close to it. I’m


    considered a Quasi-Emperor at the moment. Unless I face a Grand Emperor, I’m pretty much


    invincible.”

    “Incredible.” James could not help but express his admiration.


    Then, he walked through the air.


    The mountain range below him before was turned into heaps of rubble from the battle’s aftermath.


    Some beasts dwelling in these mountains were also killed.


    The whole area was dead silent.


    James floated through the air and could only see rubble as far as his eye could see.


    After journeying for three days, he still had not reached the battlefield. James’ traveling speed made


    Sophie impatient, so she used her power to wrap around James and propel him forward.


    Sophie unleashed an explosive burst of energy and brought him to the perimeter of the battlefield in an


    instant.


    James saw the fierce battle taking ce in front of him.
