Chapter 5673
"I have, but I haven’t explored the place thoroughly. Also, I can't say for sure if there are
any new areas or spaces beyond the edge of the Dark World or Halcyon Road. I haven't
had the opportunity to go and explore beyond the boundaries of the Dark World," Hershya
said.
Even a member of the Human Race’s primogenitors like Hershya had never traveled to
lands beyond the Dark World.
James did not try to press her for more answers.
The two of them traveled swiftly through the space of the Dark World.
It felt as though a long time had passed when both of them arrived outside the entrance
to Halcyon Road.
James entered the passage without the slightest bit of hesitation.

In the past, James could hardly keep himself straightened while being inside that space.
However, he could now hold up well against the immense pressure on Halcyon Road.
Soon enough, they reached the place where James and the other cultivators had clashed
with the strange star.
James stopped in that area.
"What's wrong? Why are you stopping?” Hershya asked.
James pointed in a certain direction. "We came across those unknown beings at that spot
last time. All of the top cultivators from the Dark World tried to stop those beings but to no
avail. Even Landry, a cultivator on the sixth stage of Transcendental Bliss Rank, was
instantly overpowered." "If it weren’t because a mysterious, powerful cultivator had shown
up at that time, a terrible fate might have come upon the Dark World.”
James turned his eyes to Hershya.
"You've been around for a very long time. Have you not heard anything about the
unknown beings living at the end of Halcyon Road?”

Hershya replied, "I have lived for a long time now. I was born with weak, unremarkable
cultivation, so I remained mostly within the Ancestral Site to train and enhance my
powers.” "Even after the Hagios Sect was established, I had spent most of my time
conducting closed-door meditations. Therefore, I am not very informed about the
happenings of the outside world.” "I see." James slowly nodded and scanned his
surroundings.
Since there weren't any paths existing in that space, James could not recreate the scenes
of that day through the manipulation of paths.
Instead, James could only rely on his memories and conjure those scenes by producing
and manipulating the paths himself.
As James conjured an image showing the scenes of the day, Hershya observed the events.
"It's him?!" Hershya exclaimed the moment she saw the man in the white robe.
As soon as the man appeared and said a few words, everything turned white in the image.

As the blinding white light faded, they could see that the mysterious star, shadow, and
Xayvion were all gone.
The scenes stopped playing at that moment.
James looked at Hershya and asked, "Have you met that man before?"
Hershya nodded. "Mhm. I've seen him at the Ancestral Site before. Back then, I had only
entered the Celestial Rank, but this man was already a Transcendental Bliss Rank
cultivator. However, I couldn’t tell which stage of the Transcendental Bliss Rank he had
achieved. Nevertheless, his powers at that time were far superior to mine at present."
"That's very useful information," James replied, "We'll turn around and head back to the
Ancestral Site instead. I'll check the place by recreating the past scenes to find out who
this man is and where he is right now. I have a few questions to ask him."
Paths existed at the Ancestral Site, and everything was recorded in them. No matter how
much time had passed, James could manipulate the paths existing in the surroundings to
recreate any events that had happened in the past.
"Sure.” Hershya gave a slight nod.
"Who says you can leave so soon?"
