The scent was barely detectable a few days ago. Now, however, the fragrance was more intense.

Callan looked at James.

James said smilingly, “To be honest with you, I came across a tiny herb that contained a trace of Empyrean Spiritual

Energy in the mountains a few days ago. So, I brought the herb back and planted it on my plantation. Now, all of

my other herbs had withered, and only that herb remains. After blossoming, its fruit began exuding a fragrance.”

“Really?”

Exhilarated, Callan said, “I’d like to have a look.”

“Follow me.”

James brought Callan to the plantation behind the wooden house.

All herbs in the plantation had withered, and only a single herb remained. There was a beautiful red fruit. the size of

a thumb on the herb.

The closer they got to the plantation, the more intense the scent was.

Callan crouched down and looked at the herb, “Are you saying that this herb has Empyrean Spiritual Energy? Why

can’t I sense its presence?”

James smiled and said, “That’s because you haven’t reached the required realm yet. Once you gain insight, you

might be able to sense the presence of the Empyrean Spiritual Energy inside the herb.”

Callan stared at the herb for quite some time. However, he was still unable to sense Empyrean Spiritual Energy

Dismayed, he stood up and asked, “By the way, can Thea sense it too?”

“Of course.” James nodded.

Thea had long reached the peak of the Ninth Stair. She had not been idle all these years. She had also cultivated

the Lunar and Terra Art. However, she did not cultivate the Lunar and Terra Energies. Instead, she only used the

Callan sighed.

Even Thea had surpassed him. It meant that she was not far away from reaching the ninth rank. He, on the other

hand, still had a long way to go.

“By the way…” Reminded of something, Callan said, “Have you heard? A new force has emerged out of nowhere

recently.”

“Huh?” James was puzzled. He had remained in the village over the past few days. Naturally, he did not pay any

heed to the affairs of the outside world.

He looked at Callan and asked, “What kind of force?”

“I think it’s called the Void Sect.”

“When did it emerge?”

Callan said, “Almost immediately after the battle between Sky and the Omniscient Deity. I hear that the Void Sect is

extremely powerful. Its disciples have defeated many powerful sects already.”

“How do you know what’s going on outside when you’re confined to this tiny village?”

“Hehe..” Callan smiled and said, “Although I currently reside in this tiny village, I’m still the Sect Leader of the Gu

Sect. The Gu Sect is a powerful force with an intelligence network that has spread all over the world. Lately, I’ve

been paying close attention to the affairs of the outside world, so naturally, I know more than you do.”

“This has nothing to do with me,” James said nonchalantly.

Now, he did not wish to concern himself with the affairs of the ancient martial world.

“Alright, I’ll be taking my leave. I have to enter a closed-door meditation now.”

Callan did not linger for long and turned to leave.

James stared at the herb. Looking at the bright red fruit and the alluring fragrance it exuded, he suddenly had the

urge to pluck the fruit and swallow it whole.

However, he suppressed the urge to do so.
