“Then what should I do?” asked James.
Emperor Jabari replied, “There’s nothing we can do for now. In the past, I, too, captured many evil spirits in the Dark World and forced them to hand over their cultivation methods.
“After acquiring various cultivation methods from those evil spirits, I discovered their cultivation methods were only suitable for their kind. They weren’t meant to be cultivated by living beings with physical bodies.
“However, after obtaining so many of them, I discovered something. If you give me some time, I might be able to create a suitable cultivation method for living beings.”
James thought awhile and asked, “You’re a soul fragment now, right? Theoretically, you’re also considered an evil spirit, so why don’t you cultivate in the Dark World?”
Emperor Jabari said, “I’ve considered that but dismissed the idea. If I were to cultivate in the Dark World, I wouldn’t be able to return to the Illuminated World.”
“I see.” James now had a better understanding of the situation.
“Keep moving for now. Before going into slumber, I studied cultivation methods suitable for humans. However, I gave up after catching some clues. I thought I’d never enter the Dark World again. Unexpectedly, you entered the Dark World. Since it’s come to this, I’ll try to pick up my research again.”
“Alright.” James nodded.
Emperor Jabari had been to the Dark World before and had some understanding of the palace. Additionally, he had obtained many cultivation methods of the evil spirits and already had some knowledge of them.
Resuming his research should be an easy feat.
James continued to advance under the guidance of Emperor Jabari.
In the Dark World, the passage of time was imperceptible.
Although it seemed that only a short while had passed, in actuality, a long time had passed.
James and Nico walked in the Dark World. Suddenly, a black palace entered their view.
Seeing the black palace, James immediately grew vigilant.
Just then, the black palace flickered and disappeared from their sight.
“Nico, did you see that?” asked James.
