CHAPTER 4358

James had arrived at a huge mountain range. If he was in better condition and still had his Path Powers, leaving the mountain range would be easy for him.

However, he was severely wounded and his Path Powers were gone. Although he could still move relatively quickly, he could no longer cover light years of distance. Thus, it would take him some time to leave the mountain range.

James hastily made his way through the mountain range, desperately trying to find a way out. He urged whatever strength remained in his body but that caused his injuries to worsen. Unable to endure the pain, he fell to the ground and spat out blood.

He did not concede and attempted to get up once more. As he stood up, he saw an old man before him.

He looked at the old man puzzledly and asked, “Who are you?”

The Boundless Master stroked his white beard and said smilingly, “You can call me the Boundless Master.”

James’ brows furrowed, and he fell into thought. He had no recollection of a powerhouse called the Boundless Master. However, there was mention of him in Wyot’s memories.

James looked at the intimidating old man and said, “If I understand correctly, there used to be a powerful sect called the Boundless Sect in the Sky Burial Age. The

Patriarch of said sect is called the Boundless Master. The Blithe Master who created the Blithe Omniscience is his disciple. Could you possibly be the Blithe Master’s mentor?”

The Boundless Master caressed his beard, and replied cheerily, “You sure do know a lot.”

A glimmer of hope suddenly shined in James’ heart.

He knelt on one knee and said, “I’m James Caden from the Human Race. It’s an honor to meet you, Boundless Master. Please, save me.”

The Boundless Master did not respond to his plea. Instead, he raised a question. “What’s your trial? What do you need to do to leave this illusion?”

“You’re aware of the trial?” James was slightly taken aback. All rights © .

The Boundless Master smiled and said, “Of course. The Heaven Awakening Master’s cultivation rank is similar to mine. Although he can drag me into this illusion, I can still distinguish it from the real world. I’m more than capable of breaking the illusion. However, if I do so, you’ll lose an amazing training opportunity.”

“Huff!” James took a deep breath.

‘I’m coming across all kinds of powerful people in the Path of Heavenly Awakening. Wynton was already plenty overpowering. Now I’ve even encountered someone at a similar cultivation rank to the creator of the Path of Heavenly Awakening. He must be a powerhouse at the peak of the Caelum Acme Rank. If not, how could he be qualified to teach the Blithe Master?’ thought James.

James replied truthfully, “The trial requires me to leave Mount Boundless’ holy site within a time limit.”

“So, you need to leave Mount Boundless before a set amount of time?”

The Boundless Master looked at James and smiled playfully. He said, ‘This is very interesting. The Yaneiri King has erased your Paths. It’ll be hard for you to leave this place without dying.”

Curious, James asked, “What kind of place is Mount Boundless? Why did you say it would be hard for me to escape?”

The Boundless Master replied, “Mount Boundless is our holy site. There are powerful formations set up around it. You’ll need to be highly learned in various Paths as well possess rock-solid mental fortitude. Had you not lost your proficiency and powers in the different Paths, leaving might have been possible. With your current condition…”

The Boundless Master paused and shook his head. He gently waved his hand, and a powerful force lifted James from the ground.

The next moment, James disappeared from the area and appeared inside a cave.

James noticed another man in a black robe that looked to be in his mid-20s sitting inside the cave.

“What’s this about?”
