Chapter 2169
Just like that, James obtained a spot to enter one of the island’s Energy Pools to improve his physique without lifting
a finger.
James followed them onto the island, which was an unknown Sealed Realm that had surfaced on Earth.
It was not originally part of the earth and only appeared because of the loosening of the seal.
A primordial environment on the island greeted James.
They were surrounded by mountains towering into the sky. Several trees stood 100 meters from the ground and
blotted out the sun.
Jace, Yerick, and Xavia each occupied one of the three main Energy Pools in the island’s central region.
James went to the the island’s outskirts.
His Energy Pool was located in a canyon.
Inside the canyon, he found the Energy Pool and it had a width of 100 meters. The liquid inside the pool had a milky
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtcolor with streaks of red. It was a remarkable sight. Upon getting closer, James could sense powerful energy
thrumming from the pool.
James stood by the pool, looked at the white and red liquid in it, and murmured, “Is this the Energy Pool?”
Just as he voiced his doubts, a dazzling white light shonefrom the Energy Pool and shot up into the sky.
James was unsure of what was inside the Energy Pool and who left behind the Blood Essence. Moreover, he did not
know what perks he would gain after taking a dip in the pool.
Without much hesitation, he jumped into the pool.
When he entered the pool, he immediately sensed a magical power from the water, which helped open the pores
throughout his body.
The mysterious energy entered his body, and he felt warm and indescribably comfortable.
James could not help but exclaim, “It feels so good.”
His body absorbed the mysterious energy, nourishing his muscles and bones. Without him. noticing, his physical
strength gradually grew.
James’ physical strength had already reached the Herculean’s Sixth Layer and was close to the Immortal
Ascension. Despite that, his cultivation rank was relatively low.
At that moment, Sophie’s voice chimed in from the Celestial Abode and rang in James’ ears.
“James, your physical strength is much higher than your cultivation rank. Your priority shouldn’t be to improve your
physical strength but to improve your rank. You need to balance out your physical strength and cultivation rank.
Otherwise, your body will be too strong, and your True Energy won’t be able to keep up which will inhibit you from
exerting your physical body’s true strength.”
Sophie began to lecture James about some basic theory.
Under normal circumstances, cultivators would only work to improve their rank and True Energy.
Very few people would cultivate True Energy and improve their physical strength simultaneously.
This was because physical strength improved at a much slower rate and needs to be diligently trained. This requires
one to go through countless trials and tribulations.
Many cultivators are unable to endure the pain to improve their physical strength.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAdditionally, cultivation methods to improve physical strength were very rare. Only a few major sects have such
cultivation methods and said methods were only passed down to direct disciples. Thus, many people do not even
have the chance to come into contact with such cultivation methods.
However, only true genius cultivators simultaneously would improve their physical strength and True Energy.
One would need complementary True Energy to display one’s real physical strength. Having weak True Energy and
strong physical strength was inefficient and would only provide one with a strong defense.
It could be said the physical body’s main function was defensive, while True Energy was the actual offensive power.
After hearing Sophie’s explanation, James finally understood what he had to do.
However, Sophie was not entirely correct either.
When the physical body reaches its pinnacle, one punch alone could split mountains and the ground.
However, James would still need to raise his True Energy and cultivation rank to continue improving in the future.
Sophie’s voice resounded again. “Your body is extraordinary, James. It can grow infinitely and absorb any energy
and convert into your own True Energy. It’s very beneficial to improving your rank.”
“The energy here is potent. Since your current rank is still relatively low, it’ll probably help you improve by multiple
fold. However, you shouldn’t keep thinking about raising your physical strength for now. Instead, raise your
cultivation rank.”
