Chapter 4420
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 Soren’s 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
Xezal's 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, it's 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 doesn’t allow me to release you immediately. However, I have devised a
plan, and I need your help to execute it."
James started explaining his plan in detail. He needed
Soren to act as if he was still refusing to give up the Blithe Omniscience so that they could
buy James more time.
During that time, James would work on setting up the superformation.
Once the formation was ready, James would use the tokens to release Soren. Then, both of
them could work together to attack the cultivators from the other races. After listening to
James' plan, Soren replied to James telepathically.
"Are you really James? James Caden, the boy who was here that day and was able to wield
the Chaos Power?"
"Yes, Mr. Soren. It's me. I've come to save you just as promised. You're our people's hope
and its savior. I must get you out of here!"
James continued, "By the way, how much power do you have left now, Mr. Soren? Would
you be able to handle the other cultivators when I undo this formation? Do you think you
can defeat Xezal Dalibor?"

Soren let out a deep sigh.
"I have been trapped in this formation for a very long time. This particular formation has
the effect of weakening the trapped entity's physical body. At this point, my body and
powers have deteriorated immensely. My powers and cultivation rank are somewhere
around the late stage of Permanence Acme Rank.”
James knitted his brows.
"How long would it take for you to fully restore your powers then, Mr. Soren?" James asked.
"I can't say for sure." Soren replied, "However, I know it's going to take a very long time.”
'Then, let’s proceed with my plan first. What matters most is that I need to get you out of
this place. We can figure out our next step as we carry out the plan."
The two of them finished sharing crucial details of James' plan a short while later.
Then, James asked aloud, "Mr. Soren, are you really alright knowing that we'll kill all the
humans if you still refuse to give us the Blithe Omniscience?"
"Get lost!" Soren's voice echoed.
James pretended to try and persuade Soren again, but he could not seem to get another
reply from the latter.
Eventually, James turned around and walked away.
