Chapter 3204


    Failing to find the fourth elixir fragment, James and the others returned to the Elixir Realm. When they


    returned, however, they realized that the Sanctuary’s forces stationed outside the Elixir Realm had


    already retreated.


    In the void outside the Elixir Realm…


    James gazed into the distance. Unable to find any trace of the Sanctuary’s forces, his expression


    turned grim as he said, “Why did the Sanctuary retreat?”


    Nico said, “Isn’t this a good thing?”


    James shook his head slightly and said, “Something’s not quite right.”


    Thea thought about it and said, “Don’t overthink things. Let’s return for now.”

    “Mhm.”


    James nodded.


    Then, the three of them entered the Elixir Realm.


    In the main hall of the Elixir Residence of the Pavilion’s Sky City, many powerful figures gathered.


    Silvester was in the lead.


    James asked, “When did the Sanctuary retreat?”


    Silvester said, “We have been observing them closely. They retreated a few minutes before you


    returned.”


    “Before we returned?” Wearing a grim expression, James looked at Thea and said, “Don’t tell me that


    the Sanctuary has learned that the fourth fragment has transformed into a human. Did they retreat to


    begin their search for the young girl?”


    Thea nodded and said, “It’s possible.”


    Melinda asked, “How did the search for the Ancestral God Rank Elixir go?”


    James narrated the events that unfolded.


    “I now have the elixir fragments. As for the remaining two, one of them is in the Sanctuary’s hands, and


    the other has transformed into a human.”


    Taking out the Time Capsule, he handed Melinda the image and said, “She’s the one we’re looking for.”


    Melinda epted the Time Capsule and scrutinized the image. Then, she returned it to James.


    James looked at her and asked, “What should we do now?”


    Melinda shook her head. She had no idea how to proceed.


    After some contemtion, she said, “Since we can’t find them, let the Sanctuary do the hard work. We


    just have to seize them back from them.”


    Hearing this, James furrowed his eyebrows. It would be nigh impossible for them to seize the Ancestral


    God Rank Elixir from the Sanctuary. However, since things hade to this, he had no other choice.


    “I’m tired. I’m heading back to my room to rest.”


    James turned to leave and returned to the courtyard and the amodation that belonged to him.


    Sitting on a stone chair, he fell into deep thought. He was running out of time, but he was still short of


    two fragments of the elixir. Thus, he was worried that humankind could not ovee the Fourth


    Cmity. When that happened, humankind would perish at the hands of Heaven’s Adjudicators. From


    that day onwards, there would not be a single human left in this universe.


    “What’s on your mind, James?” came a voice.


    James turned around to see a woman in a white dress walking toward him. Her appearance was


    gorgeous, and she exuded a charismatic aura.


    James shook his head slightly and said, “I-It’s nothing.”


    The woman was none other than Monica. Over the past 100,000 years, she had been staying at the


    Elixir Pavilion, focusing wholeheartedly on cultivation. Her strength had reached the Quasi Emperor


    Rank’s Ninth Tribtion, thanks to Elemental Inversion given to her by James. Otherwise, she would


    not have reached such a rank in just a few short 100,000 years.


    Monica approached him and asked, “You have a frown on your face. Something on your mind?”


    “No.” James waved slightly.


    Since Monica would not be able to understand anything anyway, James opted not to say anything.


    “Alright, then.”
