Chapter 1038
A surge of powerful force jolted Gloom, forcing his body seven to eight meters backward.His arms were tingly and numb.
On them, blue veins were bulging.He had a shocked expression on his face.
"You...Your strength?"
James took in his True Energy and glanced at Gloom.
"What are you doing? Are you trying to sneak up on me or is this just a test?" he said casually.
Gloom circulated his energy, and the pain in his arms started to fade gradually.He then put his hands behind his back, stared at James, and slowly approached him.He only smiled and spoke when he finally stood in front of James.
"I was curious as to what rank your cultivation base had advanced to.As far as I can tell, you must have had some exciting adventures recently.Could it be that you’ve got Moonlit Flowers on Cliffside's Edge all figured out now?"
Even though Gloom was grinning, the shock and astonishment he felt had not subsided.His cultivation base was at the fifth rank.
Although his strength would not be regarded as invincible or unmatched, he was undoubtedly very powerful in situations where the older generation did not intervene.
However, he was forced back when his palm struck James’ just now.He felt a tingling and numbness in his jolted arms.
The energy and blood in his body were erratic.
James, on the other hand, stood perfectly still and did not even flinch.It proved that James' strength had already surpassed his.
Phew! Above the fifth rank? He found that hard to believe.
How did James' strength grow to be so powerful in such a short period of time? Did he fully understand Moonlit Flowers on Cliffside's Edge, or did his strength increase exponentially as a result of some fortunate encounter? James gave a faint smile and said, "Lucky for me.I was injured before at the Cadens' Mansion.While I was treating my injury, I gained access to the Governor and Conception vessels, as well as the Eight Extraordinary Meridians with the help of Tobias’ True Energy.I've been putting a lot of effort into cultivating lately, so my True Energy has grown."
"Really?"
There was apparent disbelief on Gloom’s face.
James would not have had such a strong cultivation base even if he had gained access to the Governor and Conception vessels, as well as the Eight Extraordinary Meridians.
Nevertheless, James did not tell, so he would not ask any further questions.He made a welcoming gesture with his hand.
"Go ahead."
James turned around and left.
Gloom, however, shook his hands about while clenching his teeth and grimacing in pain.
"That hurts so bad."
In a luxurious living room within Peace Mansion...
