Chapter 2020
James asked, “I heard from the Overworld Outsiders that the earthlings’ ancestors left behind the
Four Holy Beasts. However, they were tampered with. Do you know anything about this?”
Marcello nodded and said, “Yes, a little.”
James looked at him.
Marcello exined, “In ancient times, those who sided with the Demon Race were branded as
traitors. After we sealed Earth away, the descendants of the traitors remained on Earth, a
that was deprived of any Spiritual Energy. However, since the ancestors of these traitors knew that
their descendants would be annihted once the seal is undone, they summoned the Four Holy
Beasts for their sake. The Four Holy Beasts aren’t ordinary creatures, and you people are still too
weak to experience the benefits. However, some people from the Sealed Realm injected Demonic
Energy into the Four Holy Beasts in an attempt to demonize the earthlings. After all, Demonic
Energy has adverse effects on human beings. Not only does it affect your mind, but it also eats
away at your soul. In the end, you’ll be a demon who will ughter innocent lives as you
please before dying a horrible death. Besides that, the greater one’s potential, the greater the
effects would be.”
James listened intently.
He thought the Demon Race was the mastermind behind this. It appeared he was mistaken.
“In any case, things wereplicated back then. Being the origin of all worlds, Earth was called the
Progenitor Star in ancient times. Meanwhile, the Progenitor Star was upied by the earthlings at
the time, while the other races attempted to dislodge the earthlings from Earth.”
James could not help but ask, “But why?”
Marcello shook his head and said, “I don’t know either.”
James asked once more, “I heard that Earth was upied by the Demon Race after a fierce battle.
But why did the Demon Race seal Earth away and retreat?”
“I also don’t know.”
The two discussed the affairs of ancient times. However, Marcello did not know about the specifics.
He only knew that a deep secret was hidden beneath Earth. However, only those above the
Emperor rank would know the specifics.
They slowly marched on.
Soon, they arrived at the foot of a mountain.
Before them was a straight path around 500 meters long. On both sides of the path, approximately
500 golems stood there, and they were each two meters apart.
By the time they arrived, they realized that the Son of Heaven was already at the 100-meter mark.
His speed was extraordinary as he dodged the golems’ attacks.
However, he failed to pass the third barrier.
At that moment, he suffered severe injuries. As such, he had no choice but to rapidly retreat and sat
in a lotus position on the ground. Then, he consumed a healing elixir and catalyzed True Energy.
Marcello nced at him and said, “Now that we’ve arrived at the third barrier, it’s going to be an
uphill battle from now on. For this barrier, I guess we just have to pass through the golem
formation.”
Then, he waved his arm. Materialized True Energy gathered in his palm and entered the golem
formation. The golems raised their swords and shed, shattering the True Energy into
nothingness.
Upon seeing this, James furrowed his eyebrows, saying, “This is not going to be easy.”
“Indeed, but it’s a piece of cake for me.”
Confident in his own strength, he simply walked toward the golem formation. Then, he summoned
all his strength and charged straight forward.

The moment he entered the formation, the golems immediately raised their swords and shed at
him.
However, like an elusive shadow, Marcello dodged their attacks wlessly. He moved so quickly and
adroitly that James could not even see his movements clearly.
Soon, Marcello passed through the 500-meter-long golem formation.
The Son of Heaven’s expression darkened when he saw this.
