Though James wanted to leave the sea, he did not dare expose himself. The man’s strength was simply overwhelming. Even though he had reached the peak of the Ninth Stair, a stage where his True Energy could no longer increase, and catalyzed the Invincible Body Siddhi, he was defeated almost as soon as the battle began. The man was simply too terrifying.
He was in a bind.
After some time, unable to hold his breath any longer due to a lack of True Energy, he had no choice but to leave the water.
His head slowly emerged from the sea as he scanned his surroundings. Seeing that the man had left, he breathed a sigh of relief and swam ashore.
He only landed ashore after swimming for an hour.
James climbed onto a rock and casually tossed the Primordial Dragon Blade aside. Then, he sprawled across the rock and rested. After resting for approximately half an hour, he climbed down from the rock after regaining some of his strength.
He muttered silently under his breath, “Curse you, Sky! To think you’d abandon me when I was stuck in a dire situation!” James had seen Sky fleeing from the corner of his eye. However, as he was preoccupied back then, he could not do anything about it.
Now, he had to make another raft to leave this place. He sat in a lotus position on the ground and catalyzed his cultivation methods in an effort to regain his depleted True Energy.
At the same time, Sky was already back on the island where their helicopter landed.
“Where’s the Dragon King?”
The moment Sky appeared, the pilot hurriedly asked.
Sky said, “He’s dead. We should leave this place now.”
“What?” Stunned, the pilot asked, “How can this be? With his strength…”
“Oh, shut up already. Why can’t you trust me? Hurry up and leave this place already, or else you might get both of us killed,” Sky said in annoyance.
The pilot fell silent. After being urged by Sky to leave, he had no choice but to ignite the engine and leave.
A day later, Sky returned to Cansington.
