The Almighty Dragon General novel Chapter 1817

Chapter 1817

Upon their return, James hurriedly headed toward the plantation. The moment he entered the plantation, he realized that all the herbs had withered. Only a single tiny herb remained unperturbed. Though its petals were close to withering, a tiny fruit could be seen in the middle of the flower

“What’s going on?”

Looking at the withered plants, James asked in confusion, “I only left for a few days. Why have the herbs I planted withered? Could it be that this tiny herb has absorbed all the nutrients from the soil and caused the other plants to wither?”

James hypothesized. Looking at the herb, he suddenly had the urge to absorb the Empyrean Spiritual Energy inside the herb. However, upon seeing the fruit, he dismissed the idea.

He began looking forward to the herb bearing fruit. Once the fruit was ripe, he could cross into the ninth rank after consuming it.

“James.”

A voice came from the courtyard.

James glanced at the herb before standing up and heading toward the wooden house. Then, he arrived at the courtyard. When he saw Callan who had taken a seat, he walked over to him and sat beside him.

As soon as he sat, Callan leaned over to him and pleaded, “I now know that your cultivation path is the right one after overhearing the conversation between you and the Omniscient Deity. Could you tell me how you managed to sense Empyrean Spiritual Energy?”

James was lost in contemplation.

When did he first sense the presence of Empyrean Spiritual Energy?

He remembered he was practicing martial arts in the morning. Back then, the sun had only just risen above the horizon when he suddenly had an epiphany. It was then that he gained insight into the Lunar and Terra Art, which allowed him to detect the presence of a mysterious power that was hidden in plain sight. Meanwhile, the breathing method of the Lunar and Terra Art began absorbing the power.

He told everything he knew to Callan, who could barely understand his words.
