CHAPTER 4378

James bore the Chaos Lightning punishment for Thea during the Path of Heavenly Awakening’s third trial.

During the punishment, he lost signs of vitality, and his soul vanished.

Ultimately, Thea buried his corpse and built him a tomb.

Thea was teleported out of the illusion but retained the memories of everything that had happened within it.

However, the other powerhouses had their memories wiped out.

The other powerhouses were also sent back to reality after Thea.

Everything within the illusion had ceased to exist except James’ tomb.

The tomb remained in the illusion for many years.

Creak!

One day, the tomb suddenly lifted open.

A skeletal hand reached out from the ground, repeatedly pushing aside the soil. Shortly afterward, a complete skeleton crawled out of the tomb and sat on a rock.

James was still in a groggy state.

After some time, he suddenly recovered his memories. His flesh and blood also regenerated, and his body was restored.

“I’m not dead yet?” James took a deep breath.

James had gone through the Chaos Lightning punishment for Thea and lost consciousness halfway through it. He had already lost his perception of the outside world. Supposedly, he was already dead. However, he miraculously regained consciousness.

“I’m still alive? Did Thea bury me here? Have I completed the trial? Has Thea already left the illusion?”

James stood up and examined his surroundings. He let out his Divine Sense to sense the surroundings.

He did not find any living beings inside the illusion.

“Everyone’s gone.” James was surprised.

He immediately examined his physical body and cultivation rank.

“I was at the middle stage of the Omniscience Path’s Eighth Stage. After going through the Chaos Lightning punishment, my physical body has improved. I’ve already reached the last stage of the Omniscience Path’s Eighth Stage and am very close to the Ninth Stage.”

James analyzed his cultivation ranks.

Unexpectedly, he benefited from the punishment.

If not for the Chaos Lightning’s powers, it would be hard for him to reach the late stage of the Omniscience Path’s RêAd lat𝙚St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only

Eighth Stage. In fact, it might have taken him many more years.

Because of the punishment, he coincidentally entered the last stage of the Omniscience Path’s Eighth Stage.

His physical strength was also terrifying and was on par with a powerhouse at the late stage of the Terra Acme Rank.

Under normal circumstances, a powerhouse at the last stage of the Terra Acme Rank would have to attack with full strength to injure his physical body.

However, he would have to avoid fighting a powerhouse that cultivated in the Boundless Rank.

Perhaps it would take a Permanence Acmean that entered the Boundless Rank to hurt him.

James stretched his body and smiled after sensing the majestic power flowing through him.

The Chaos Lightning laid a foundation for him to cultivate a formidable body and enter the Omniscience Path’s Ninth Stage.

James murmured, “This should mean I’ve passed the third trial.”

After speaking, the surrounding space collapsed, and he appeared inside the Path of Heavenly Awakening.

Another door appeared inside the passage.

James could walk through the door and exit the Path of Heavenly Awakening, returning to his era. With his current strength, very few in the Greater Realms could stand against him.

He could easily take on the patriarchs of major races.

However, Youri, who had entered the Omniscience Path’s Ninth Stage, was still going to be a tough opponent.
