James greeted Soren in a humble manner despite his apparent status as one of the Dooms.
“Ha!” Soren gave a snort. The man had heard about Wyot Dalibor previously.
‘When Youri Dalibor was here, he had updated me on the progress of the various races found across the Greater Realms. I learned back then that the Dooms had produced a genius cultivator with seemingly infinite potential.’ remembered Soren.
Despite Sorenʼs cold response, James went on, “Mr. Soren, I am here today to persuade you to hand over the Blithe Omniscience. James Caden, the budding human cultivator, has been killed. The Doom Race possesses all ten tokens now. Once you agree to give up the Blithe Omniscience, I’ll release you from this place.”
James told Soren everything that Youri told him to. He also told Soren that Madam Thea was also killed and that the Dooms were hunting down all the remaining humans across the Greater Realms.
“Mr. Soren, countless lives are sacrificed each day for as long as you refuse to surrender the Blithe Omniscience…”
Just then, a huge wave of energy radiated from the black palace and rushed toward James. He was sent flying backward in the air due to the immense force.
In the past, even a simple attack from Soren was enough to kill James. Unfortunately, Soren had been trapped in the formation for so long that his powers had diminished substantially. His attack barely caused any harm to James.
After James had steadied himself, he strode toward the black palace and bowed again. “Mr. Soren, please give the matter some serious thought. Are you going to watch and do nothing as the Human Race faces extinction? Once you surrender the Blithe Omniscience, the remaining humans will be spared.”
“Get out!” Soren bellowed furiously. His voice rang throughout the space within the formation.
Meanwhile, James was carefully scanning his surroundings and secretly checking for Xezalʼs presence. Although he could not confirm that he was not currently being watched, James could not afford to lose his opportunity to communicate with Soren.
James silently transmitted his voice to Soren.
“Mr. Soren, itʼs me, James Caden. Do you remember me? I was here previously…”
Soren paused briefly upon hearing the voice. His lack of did not betray his thoughts.
“Mr. Soren, we are currently in a bit of a tight spot. I have all ten tokens with me right now, but the situation doesnʼt allow me to release you immediately. However, I have devised a plan, and I need your help to execute it.”
