Chapter 1891
Langston told James about the Supreme Spiritual Root/ Whoever possessed the Supreme Spiritual Root would be
bright, distinguished individuals born to persevere in the face of the Calamity.
However, what was the Calamity?
Based on Langston's thoughts, the Calamity would be brought about by the seal's activation. This would be the
greatest catastrophe mankind would ever face. However, to deal with the menace, mankind’s ancestors had come
up with a countermeasure. They would allow mankind to obtain the blood of the Four Holy Beasts so that they could
gain extraordinary lifespans, which would allow them to emerge rapidly to deal with the looming threat. However,
upon foreseeing the plans of mankind's ancestors, the enemy tampered with the Four Holy Beasts.
"This is my hypothesis based on the message left behind in King Quavon’s Mausoleum. Only time can verify its
authenticity."
Langston could not be sure whether his speculations were true.
"However, I believe this is not too far from the truth."
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtJames listened intently.
Upon hearing Langston's words, his heart was unable to settle down.
Then, Langston pointed to the Phoenix Essence on the table and said," This is a complete Phoenix Essence. Now
that I have no more use for it, I'll hand it over to you. Increase your cultivation base as much as possible in the
shortest amount of time available to you."
"Me?"
James was shocked. Langston only managed to obtain the Phoenix Essence after going to great lengths.
"Yes, this is for you. But, be mindful that the items on the Four Holy Beasts -the Spirit Turtle's core and the blood of
the phoenix and dragon-can make you experience Energy Deviation. Any desire that surfaces in your mind will be
amplified almost immediately. Of course, ordinary people are vulnerable to this phenomenon. However, you who
possess the Supreme Spiritual Root will experience Energy Deviation without a doubt."
Upon hearing this, James was lost in contemplation.
After some time, he said, "It is my understanding that the Malevolent King from a millennium ago also experienced
Energy Deviation. Did he also possess the Supreme Spiritual Root?"
Langston shook his head slightly and said, "I don't know either. I only know that he’s a distinguished figure. He was
only thirty years of age when he reached the pinnacle of his life. Only a genius like him is capable of creating
Ataraxia and the Demonic Sword Art.
"Alright, enough dilly-dallying already. Take the Phoenix Essence and leave. Bring some phoenix blood along with
you as well. Soon, I'll leave this place and head to Lothian to nurture a new generation of talents with the phoenix
blood."
Then, Tyrus went to obtain the phoenix blood alongside James who complied with Langston's orders. After obtaining
the phoenix blood, he left Mount Thunder Pass of the Southern Plains with the Phoenix Essence.
Upon his return, he could not help but ruminate over Langston’s words.
The Four Calamities?
Was he referring to four individuals or perhaps the Four Holy Beasts?
James was lost in contemplation.
If Langston's speculation were correct, the Four Calamities would refer to the Four Holy Beasts and not four
individuals. After all, if the items on the Four Holy Beasts could make those who possess the Supreme Spiritual Root

"A fast learner... Bright and distinguished..."
James murmured.
Immediately, a figure came to mind-Delainey Cabral.
To his understanding, Delainey had been a brilliant child since she was young. After obtaining the Dragon Essence
and the dragon's blood, she managed to reach the peak of the Ninth Stair in three short years. She even
established an invincible martial art skill of her own-Geostigma.
He immediately called Delainey.
Soon, she arrived at his residence.
Over the past few days, Delainey had been restructuring the Black Dragon Army.
"James."
Delainey, who was wearing a military uniform, walked in. She exuded a charismatic aura.
"Here, have a seat."
James collected himself and pointed to the sofa beside him.
Delainey sat down and looked at James, asking, "Is something the matter?" "Delainey, have you ever experienced
Empyrean Spiritual Energy?"
