Chapter 3873
Sienna immediately dissuaded him, "You shouldn't act recklessly, James. You've just come to the Dark World and
don't understand the horror of the restricted areas. Let me explain. In the past, many went to these restricted
zones. They all got contaminated with the power of these places and became terrifyingly strong, turning the Dark
World upside down.
'The Dark Strife that Yukia participated in seems to also be related to a certain restricted area."
"Oh, is that so? Could you tell me more?" asked James.
Sienna shook his head and said, "It's a taboo topic in the Dark World. Not many are aware of it. I've only heard a
few rumors and don't really know much. We can only wait for Xerxes' return."
Speaking of Xerxes, James’ curiosity was piqued.
"What kind of existence is Xerxes?"

Sienna explained, "I don't know much about his background either. I only know that he's from a powerful family. His
family's ancestor had participated in the Dark Strife and knew some inside stories."
While speaking, Sienna's expression became solemn.
'The power distribution of the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths is very clear, and I know almost every prominent figure.
However, these people are only the forces on the surface. There are still some unknown forces in the Dark World.
Some of these forces are hidden in the restricted areas. In short, you must be careful in the Dark World and refrain
from doing anything reckless."
James did not say much in response.
He was very interested in the Dark World. He wanted to discover how many powerhouses were hidden in the
depths of the Dark World and whether Acmeans really existed.
Yukia fought against 300 Ninth Stage Lords, so her cultivation rank must have surpassed that of a Ninth-Stage Lord.
She must have already become an Acmean.
Apart from Yukia, were there any more Acmeans in the Dark World?

James became very interested in these things.
His desire to become stronger was ignited. He wanted to become even more powerful so he could fight against
Acmeans.
Xerxes had not returned yet. James was unsure whether Xerxes had found any information in his family’s ancient
books. He temporarily stayed on Mount Malevolent Moon, waiting for Xerxes to return.
James started to cultivate on Mount Malevolent Moon. He attempted to study the differences and similarities
between the Dark and Illuminated Worlds.
He cultivated for 3000 years.
James sat in a lotus position within a bamboo groove on a spiritual mountain on Mount Malevolent Moon and
exuded a powerful aura.
Suddenly, a figure appeared before him.

It was Sienna. As soon as she showed up, she shouted frantically, "James! Something bad has happened!"
James stopped cultivating, stood up, and asked, "What's the matter? What happened?"
Sienna said solemnly, "Xerxes just contacted me and said something happened to his family!"
James asked, "What happened?"
Sienna said, "I didn't know Xerxes very well in the past. I didn't even know where he was from. I received his
message just now and learned he’s from the Nine Heavens' Hate Welkin. His family used to be very powerful in the
Hate Welkin. However, their family became very low-profile after the Dark Strife and was gradually forgotten.
"He just told me that he found clues from his family's ancestral books. In fact, he found his ancestors’ notes.
However, it attracted the attack of mysterious forces. His family was almost wiped out. He went through a lot to
escape and is currently being hunted down. He needs our help!"
Sienna's expression was solemn. She knew Xerxes was an Eighth Stage Lord. Within the Nine Heavens and Ten
Earths, only a handful of people could injure Xerxes and force him
to escape a fight.
James was startled. Xerxes had just returned to his family to investigate but was being hunted down after finding
some clues about the Dark Strife.
Moreover, Xerxes was a powerhouse, so his opponent had to be terrifying if even he was injured and forced to flee.
