Chapter 5009
The old farmer chuckled and said, 'You've come to the wrong place. If you’re seeking
apprenticeship and the art of cultivation, you should go to the Presta Sect. Te'oma Village
is merely a small village, and its residents are ordinary humans with no cultivation."
After finished speaking, he picked up his hoe and walked away. James watched him depart,
then glanced at Te'oma Village. The village was quite small, with only about a hundred
households.
In the center of the village, there stood a community hall. At this moment, many villagers
had gathered there, led by an elder wearing a simple, green robe. He gently stroked his
gray beard as he spoke, "We've guarded the Koloretsua Stone for countless years. After
absorbing the essence of heaven and earth, it is about to awaken its consciousness. But

now it has been stolen by other living beings."
"Mr. Cray, who has taken the Koloretsua Stone?"
"The Koloretsua Stone has been a closely guarded secret known to only a few living beings
for ages. How could it now have been stolen?"
'Yes, what can we do now?"
Te’oma Village was a hidden place, and its human inhabitants were all hidden
powerhouses. Their primary purpose was to safeguard the Koloretsua Stone. However,
James had acquired it, and they were unaware of his background.
Faced with the villagers’ questions, the village chief paused briefly and then said, "I can’t
discern this person's origin. However, perhaps Lady Tehila tasked us with guarding this
place not for the Koloretsua Stone to awaken as a living being, but to await the arrival of

other humans to claim it. Now that the person who took the stone is at the village
entrance. Let's go and see."
As James hesitated about whether to enter the village, a group of people emerged from it.
Among them were individuals of various ages and genders, young and old, totaling about
a hundred. They all concealed their auras, but James could still sense their
extraordinariness. These seemingly ordinary humans were all legendary powerhouses,
with the weakest among them likely at the Chaos Rank.
James looked at these farmers with great respect, clasped his hands, and said, "I pay my
respects to all of you."
"Young man, why have you come here?" the village chief asked.
James smiled and responded, "I've come here seeking apprenticeship."

'To seek apprenticeship, you should go to the Presta Sect. Why have you come to this
village? Everyone here is just an ordinary human with no cultivation base," the village
chief replied.
James chuckled and said, 'You're humble."
With that, he entered the village. It was indeed an extraordinary place. However, since the
village chief and the others were not forthcoming with information, James decided not to
press further.
As long as he remained in the village, he believed he would eventually uncover its secrets.
Moreover, these villagers were humans, so they probably were not sinister characters.
James just wondered why they had chosen to live in seclusion here.
After James entered the village, the villagers exchanged glances.
The village chief instructed, "Now that he's here, let's make arrangements for him to settle
in. Yarona, please arrange for him to stay at your house and find out more about his
background."
"Yes, Mr. Cray," a young girl stepped forward respectfully and replied.
