The Almighty Dragon General Chapter 876

James smiled bitterly.

"The Cadens will tear me to pieces."

Maxine said, "You have no choice but to suffer the wrath of the Cadens.Otherwise, you'll be pursued by
the other three families.You're still a Caden, after all.I don’t think grandpa will kill you until he gets the
painting back.As for the next move, I’ll leave the decision to you."

James shook his head.It would not work.He was too weak.

Not only that, he was the trigger of this standoff.

If he had not executed the Emperor, he could have stayed on the sidelines.

James remained silent and returned to his meal.

Soon, he finished eating.

Holding the dishes in her hands, Maxine stood up and said, "There are only two days left.Reflect on it,
will you?"

Saying that, she left.

James sat in a lotus position on the floor.He believed that the second option would never work.

The first option was possible.

However, it would be immensely difficult.It would be nearly impossible to unravel the secret behind the
Moonlit Flowers on Cliffside’s Edge in just two days.



However, he could fake it to stall for time.

James thought about it.

If he could regain his strength within the next two days, he could proclaim to the outside world that he
had unraveled the secret of the painting, which had been the key to him regaining his strength.

That way, the other families would have to think twice before harming him.

Perhaps he would be captured and interrogated.

However, as long as he kept his mouth shut, he could live through this.

Otherwise, with how worthless he currently was in the eyes of the other families, he would be killed on
sight the moment he stepped out of the Cadens’ mansion.

"I can no longer rely on the Moonlit Flowers on Cliffside’s Edge.The Medical Book and the Crucifier are
the only things that can save my life,"

James muttered.

He only had one way to regain his strength within the next two days—by using the Crucifier.

James sat in a lotus position on the floor.

Then, he catalyzed the Cultivation Method that was recorded in the Medical Book and forcibly gathered
True Energy.

Blergh! His actions caused great pain in his meridians.

As if a thousand swords had pierced through his heart, he collapsed to the floor and cried out in pain.



Though his meridians had been forcibly reattached by Maxine’s concentrated True Energy, they had
yet to recover.

She had inserted the needles into his body twice, but his dispersed True Energy remained dormant.

By forcibly gathering the residual True Energy within his body, his meridians, through which True
Energy flows, immediately ruptured after failing to withstand the force.

His injuries were now even more grave than before.

Sweat beaded on his forehead, and he collapsed to the ground with a pale expression on his face.

He got up with great difficulty and sat on the floor.

Looking at the meridian diagram before him, he spoke in a feeble voice, "What secret does this
diagram hold? Do we really need two people to cultivate together? Besides, what are the secrets
behind the Moonlit Flowers on Cliffside’s Edge?"

James stared at the first picture of the diagram intently.

Although some of his meridians had ruptured, he could not care less.

Again, he forcibly gathered True Energy and tried to adjust its movement flow according to the
diagram.

Every single part of the meridian where True Energy passed through ruptured.

Blood began oozing out of his skin.

In just a few minutes, he was completely covered in blood.



"Argh!"

James cried out in pain.

However, with his perseverance, he managed to complete the first meridian diagram.

Most of his meridians had ruptured.

"Could it be that I can only cultivate this meridian diagram by facing death and rising from the ashes?"

At that moment, a crazy thought flashed through his mind.
