Chapter 4658


    Drenched heavily in sweat, James gasped for air. Still, he felt a sense of joy and exhration in him.


    Ever since he had arrived at the Endlos, he was oftentimes forced to face opponents or cultivators who


    were way stronger than him. He was always trying to look for ways to avoid battling them as he had no


    wish to foolishly challenge


    them.


    James never had a chance to engage in a proper fight all this time. Finally, he got to face Wynona, who


    was an equal match to him in many aspects.


    Til use this opportunity to assess the results of my training and cultivation.’ James thought.


    While most of the people assumed that James had clearly been defeated at that point, they began to


    notice the wounds on his body were curiously healing again, including the huge, bloody hole on his


    abdomen.


    “You’re truly a worthy opponent. I should also get serious


    then, ” he muttered.


    As the new muscles on James’ abdomen had finished forming, James straightened himself and


    directed his gaze at Wynona. Then, he activated the Thousand Paths Holy Body.


    The audience instantly felt a drastic change in the air. Almost everyone could sense how the Path


    Energies existing around them were all flowing toward James rapidly. At that moment, James’ body


    appeared to be in full sync with his surroundings as he began absorbing an immense amount of


    energy.


    Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDra/ma.O(r)g!


    “W… What?!” Quite a number of cultivators got up whilst staring at James.


    ‘The Thousand Paths Holy Body?!”


    “He possesses and has even awakened the Thousand Paths Holy Body?! With that ability, he could


    increase almost any Path Power multiplefold!”


    Most of the audience was shocked to see the battle’s current development.


    After he had stopped suppressing the powers of the Thousand Paths Holy Body, James began to


    absorb the Path Powers into his body. As it instantly rejuvenated him, the aura emanating from his


    body grew substantially as well.


    A deep frown creased Wynona’s forehead. She had nevere across any cultivators at the


    Permanence Acme Rank with such an overwhelming amount of aura.


    After a moment’s consideration, Wynona lifted her hand. Just then, a beam of golden light shot down


    from the sky and shone on Wynona’s hand.


    As the light slowly faded away, the audience could see the object that in her hand was a sword.


    “It’s the Candor!”


    “It’s the sword previously owned by our headmaster.” “It’s hailed as the most powerful weapon in the


    Verde District.”


    “Some say the sword might have first belonged to the founder of the Verde Academy. It’s a superb


    weapon that transcends the Acme Rank.”


    There was a stir in the crowd as Wynona summoned the Candor Sword.


    She pointed the Candor in James’ direction. Then, she said in a low voice, “I admit you’re pretty


    good. You’re the first to make me use the Candor Sword in a battle. Even if you lose this battle,


    everyone in the Verde District will know your name from this point onward.”


    Wynona was extremely confident that with the power of her sword, she would not lose to James.


    On the other hand, James could sense an overpowering sword intenting from the Candor. It


    was a superior energy that was powerful enough to affect its wielder’s opponents.


    James could feel his pulse race and the strength of the Thousand Paths Holy Body drop due to the


    Candor* s ability.


    He let out a small chuckle. ‘The Candor is indeed a superb weapon. However, what matters more is


    the skill of its wielder. Since you’ve decided to use the Candor, I’ll use my own sword to defeat you


    and show everyone who’s the better fighter.”


    James conjured the Death-Celestial Sword at that instant. Then, he shot up into the air. As he rocketed


    upward, a wave of sword energy and countless inscriptions were produced from his sword


    simultaneously.
