The Almighty Dragon General novel Chapter 1863

Chapter 1863

"I need Mount Thunder Sect’s assistance."

Without missing a beat, Jackson replied, "No problem! I'll let my daughter lead some disciples from Mount Thunder Sect to the Southern Plains to help you complete your ten-year plan!”

Jackson wholeheartedly supported James.

James looked at Simon and continued. “Mount Thunder Sect can't stay idle either. From what I understand, the earth will expand in the future, and many more mountains, rivers, and land will come into being. For humanity to survive, we need to occupy as much of earth as we can. Mount Thunder Sect should use this area as your base and as a foundation to build a city. As for the other things you need to do, go ahead and proceed with your plans. The country has pledged to support you.”

Simon stood up and said, "Thank you for telling me this, but I have some other questions I'd like to ask you."

James said, "Go ahead."

Simon asked, "You've already stepped into the ninth rank. I'd like to inquire how you did it. In Mount Thunder Sect, three people have reached the peak of the Skyward Stairway's Ninth Stair but haven’t yet touched the threshold of the ninth rank.”

Instead of the earth's future changes, Simon was more concerned about reaching the ninth rank.

Since there was a ninth-ranked grandmaster right before him, he was not going to miss the opportunity to acquire more information.

James had discussed the ninth rank with Tyrus in the Southern Plains.

Tyrus was the son of the Prince of Orchid Mountain.

He had also lived for thousands of years and had entered the ninth rank a long time ago.

After slaying the dragon, he drank the dragon's blood. James himself was unaware of what rank Tyrus had reached by now.

After talking with Tyrus, James learned that not everyone could sense Empyrean Spiritual Energy.

It required one to undergo a process.

Ordinary martial artists would have to understand it themselves when they reach the Skyward Stairway's Ninth Stair. It could take as short as three to five years or as long as eight to ten years to finally be able to sense Empyrean Spiritual Energy.

However, certain people are able to perceive Empyrean Spiritual Energy only after a short amount of time.

Tyrus claimed that these people had Spiritual Roots.

Spiritual Roots were an extraordinary feature.

People with a Spiritual Root could easily enter the ninth rank if they possessed a cultivation method that allowed them to absorb Empyrean Spiritual Energy.

James was forthcoming with everything and revealed his journey in reaching the fabled ninth rank. He also shared the existence of Spiritual Roots that Tyrus told him about.

The three of them listened carefully.
