Chapter 1810
Regardless, James wholeheartedly accepted their wishes.
They gathered and conversed.
Langston suddenly asked, “By the way, since you retreated into the mountains, why have you decided to leave seclusion? What do you plan to do next? Why don’t you come to Lothian?”
Langston extended an invitation to James.
“Although Lothian is still far off from equalling Sol, I have an unlimited lifespan. As long as Lothian continues to develop for a few more decades or even centuries, it will surely become one of the most powerful nations in the world. In the near future, it could also be the only superpower in the world.” Langston was originally of noble birth. However, he was defeated in a power struggle a millennium ago. To stage his comeback, he began courting many powerful martial artists. However, as he reached the pinnacle of his power, he sensed the presence of the Omniscient Deity. Fearful of his strength, he faked his death and lived a life of seclusion for a millennium.
Currently, there was little to no power disparity between him and the Omniscient Deity. Now, the age of the ancient martial world had arrived. How could he continue to stay hidden from the outside world?
James turned down his offer with a smile.
Langston smiled faintly and remained silent. He knew that Thomas Caden had established the state of Japura. Surely, he must have extended an offer to James as well. If James turned down his grandfather’s offer, why would he accept his?
“Langston, when did you cross into the ninth rank?” James asked.
After brief contemplation, Langston said, “Ninth rank, huh? It should be around a millennium ago when I failed to slay the Spirit Turtle.”
“In that case, how did you cross into the ninth rank?” James asked.
“Hahaha…” Langston laughed. He knew what James was trying to ask.
He said, “My journey to the ninth rank went rather smoothly.”
James listened intently.
Langston continued, “Only by breaking the realm barrier of the Ninth Stair can one cross into the ninth rank. However, the realm barrier is bizarre. You can’t make a breakthrough through True Energy alone.”
“Mhm.” Hearing this, James nodded slightly.
He knew this from personal experience. Although his True Energy had fully maxed out, he could not break through the realm barrier. Besides, his capacity for True Energy had increased once more. He had no idea what was going on at the moment.
Langston looked at him and said, “It is my understanding that there are several ways to break through the Ninth Stair’s realm barrier
“One, you can use external force.
“Two, the power of desire.
“Three, the power of nature.”
James was confounded
“Alright.” Thea nodded.
When the Prince of Orchid Mountain’s arrived, many martial artists hurriedly went over to greet him. Even powerful sects such as the Mount Thunder Sect did the same.
James remained in his spot. After the crowd dispersed, he walked over to the Prince of Orchid Mountain with Thea.
“Langston… Tyrus…” he greeted them respectfully
James had come across them before. He even fought against Tyrus but was defeated by his overwhelming power
Langston looked at James before glancing at Thea. Upon seeing Thea’s stomach, he asked delightedly, Is the baby due soon?”
“Mhm.” Thea said, “In about a month or two.”
“That’s great!” Langston laughed.
Tyrus looked at Thea and said, “I’m happy for you.”
James was taken aback by their friendliness.
Regardless, James wholeheartedly accepted their wishes.

What the hell was Langston talking about?
Upon seeing James’ puzzled face, Langston explained, “External force refers to treasures that possess enormous power such as Dragon Essence. If I’m not mistaken, that was how Sky made a breakthrough into the ninth rank. Before obtaining the Dragon Essence, he was stuck at the peak of the Ninth Stair
