After James came close to the statue, he overheard the surrounding cultivators’ conversation and obtained an important piece of information.The Elysian Inscription had appeared on a particular island, and beasts from all over the world were rushing there, hoping to benefit by being bathed in the Elysian Light.Simultaneously, some powerful humans have also headed to the island.Although it was rumored that the Elysian Inscription had no effect on humans, some cultivators still headed there to observe the situation.After James learned this, he fell into deep thought.Initially, he wanted to head over and have a look at things. However, he decided not to after properly considering it. He left the mountain and left for Bane City. The city had become more prosperous than it was two years ago.Outsiders from the Three Thousand Worlds gathered in Bane City.Retracing his previous steps, James walked toward Marcello’s mansion. It did not take long before he arrived in front of it.M
James suddenly thought of the Grand Emperor from the Demon Race, Xacobe, and his son, Lucifer. He realized that he hardly knew anything about them. Since Marcello was a pivotal member of the Demon Race, she should be familiar with them.Marcello looked at James suspiciously and asked, “Why are you asking about him?”James said, “You should already know about my body’s origin since you were the one who gave me the Demon Race’s Supreme Token. My body was reformed with the Grand Emperor, Xacobe’s Natal Primordial Spirit, the Demonic Lotus. I went to the Ancient Realm and resurrected his son, Lucifer, with the Demonic Energy in my body.”“Lucifer?!”Marcello exclaimed and asked, “You resurrected Lucifer?!”“Yeah.” James nodded.“Haah!!!”Marcello took a deep breath and said, “This is a serious problem, James. Do you know just who you resurrected?”“Isn’t he the Demon Emperor’s son? What’s wrong with that?”“You don’t understand!”Marcello had a grave look as she explained, “I hea
After hearing Marcello’s words, James was filled with dread.He was responsible for Lucifer’s resurrection. The Elysian Inscription appeared specifically for Lucifer’s sake. It was plain to see that Lucifer was meant to be Earth’s Second Calamity. ‘Is killing Lucifer the only way to avert the catastrophe?’James asked the question in his heart.“Ha!” Marcello laughed lightly and said, “You’re too naive, James. Kill him? How are you going to manage that? Don’t you understand who’s backing him up? It’s the Hadean Clan. Although they don’t have a Grand Emperor right now, there are Quasi-Emperors among their ranks.”“Then what should we do?” asked James.Marcello shook her head and said, “I don’t know either. It depends on Lucifer’s plans after he obtains the Elysian Inscription. The bottom line is, regardless of what he wants to do, no one on Earth can really stand against him.”Hearing this, James went silent.The lizard drawing the carriage continued to glide swiftly through th
James immediately noticed the light.The golden light formed a mysterious symbol that constantly shifted and morphed unpredictably. The light enveloped the entire island, and countless oppressive auras immediately burst forth.“What?”James was shocked.“Is this the Elysian Inscription? The golden light spread throughout the entire island. Does this mean that all the beasts on the island have been illuminated by the Elysian Light? Did they all suddenly gain immense strength?”James bit his lip.He had read about the Elysian Light on the Martial Arts Forum. There were reports about ordinary animals coming into contact with Elysian Light and mutating into beasts with Mage Rank strength.The beasts that travelled to the island were already powerful.If they really were bathed in the Elysian Light, how strong were they now?While James was still frowning in deep thought, the golden symbol in the sky rose higher above the island. The golden light slowly emanating from the island gr
Sophie’s strength had also reached the pinnacle of cultivation, and she immediately sensed the abnormality from within the Celestial Abode as the Elysian Light emerged.It was a prosperous era for non-human races, but it was the end for humanity.What exactly did the humans do in ancient times for the Heavenly Path to treat humans like so?Sophie’s words made James frown.He looked at the Elysian Inscription above the island and the golden light shining out from it. The light permeated the earth and throughout the Three Thousand Worlds, allowing all non-human races to gain significant strength.Conversely, shackles formed in the human body in order to bine them.The Elysian Light shone for about one day.One day later, James sat a figure hovering above the island. The Elysian Light enveloped him and instantly caught the attention of everyone.Under tens of thousands of watchful eyes, the Elysian Inscription slowly descended from the sky and sank into the man’s body.It was Luc
“The Elephant King came from the Sealed Realm. He’s as strong as a Second Stage Mage.”“It’s over for us! The humans on Earth are doomed!”“The Elephant King was the first to claim a human city. Many more powerful beasts will surely follow suit. Once they start popping up, humans will be doomed! Humans will no longer stand at the top and will become slaves.”People all over the Three Thousand Worlds shared their opinions on the internet.“It depends on whether the powerful humans hidden on Earth will step up to prevent it from happening.”“Probably not. These people won’t step in so easily. They might not act even if humanity ends up destroyed.”“If these powerhouses on Earth don’t take action, how will humanity fight against these powerful beasts?”“That’s right. The humans from the Three Thousand Worlds won’t care about the fate of Earth’s humans. The Solean’s ancestors were despicable sinners.”The boards were rife with all sorts of opinions.After reading through them, the
The Elysian Inscription appeared and provided significant gains to non-human races.Those bathed by the Elysian Light unlocked greater potential, but some had instant improvements to their strength.It was akin to all non-human races winning the lottery. The difference was that some only won a few dollars, while others won millions.The weasel was originally an ordinary animal that lived at the base of Mount Jade. With the restoration of Empyrean Spiritual Energy on Earth, he gradually gained sentience. In the beginning, he was relatively weak so he cultivated in hiding.After the Elysian Light transformed him, he immediately attained immense strength.His current strength far exceeded that of Earth’s martial artists.As soon as he gained tremendous strength, he summoned all the beasts around Mount Jade. He launched an attack to occupy and rule Mount Jade.Seeing the incapacitated martial artists strewn around the hall, he could not repress his delight and burst into a haughty l
His identity would be exposed if he used the Primordial Dragon Blade.James put away the sword and contacted Sophie, who was in the Celestial Abode. He asked, “Ms. Sophie, is there any suitable weapon for me in the Celestial Abode?”Sophie said, “There’s a Supreme Armory in the Celestial Abode. However, you need to at least be at the Sage Rank before entering it. You won’t be able to wield the weapons in there with your current strength. Hmm… How about this? Give me some time. I’ll forge a suitable sword for you.”Hearing this, James waited patiently.In just five minutes, Sophie had forged a brand-new sword for James.The sword materialized in James’ hands.It was a long sword about two meters in length. It had a white blade with several mysterious inscriptions on it. James held the sword and could tell that it was an extraordinary sword with powerful energy.The new sword’s energy was far greater than the Primordial Dragon Blade.Sophie’s voice came from the Celestial Abode.
The sky was a brilliant blue, accented by white clouds. Vast plains stretched out with rolling peaks, rivers, and seas crisscrossing the expansive land, while an aura of Spiritual Energy permeated everything. This was a new world, brimming with life and vitality, existing independently from the myriad realms.Countless cultivation resources awaited discovery here. Unending adventures beckoned the brave, and limitless opportunities awaited those with exceptional talent.This was the new world James had created, based on the Forty-Nine Daoisms and merged with his own Daoism, to resolve the Leere Tribulation and save countless beings across the myriad realms.In this world, there was no powerful Heavenly Path, no hierarchy of races, no strict rules or oppressions, and no fate governing everything. Instead, actions were judged by karma. Fortune and misfortune, as well as success and failure, were determined by karma.Though it adhered to the principle of survival of the fittest and res
“No wonder,” Lord Goyo finally understood after an extended contemplation.He distinctly remembered that back at the Yin’s Void, Jacopo, the incarnation of Waitara Path’s Soremsia, had abruptly ordered him to move all foundations out of the Dark World. In hindsight, everything now made sense. It was likely that Jacopo had foreseen all of this.Realizing this, Lord Goyo felt a chill run down his spine as cold sweat broke out on his forehead. Despite doubting Jacopo’s identity as an incarnation of Waitara Path’s Soremsia, he had followed his advice. Otherwise, the consequences would have been disastrous.Snapping back to reality, Lord Goyo looked down at the Yang governor and Gladwin from his elevated position.“You fool, do you realize your mistake?”The Yang governor and Gladwin looked up simultaneously, their faces full of fear.“Lord Goyo, I truly didn't notice this. I had no idea when the Dark World was separated.”“Lord Goyo, there is something fishy about this. If James has
At the peak of Mount One in the myriad realms, the Yang Governor, disguised as James, descended with Gladwin. Both looked deathly pale, as if they had just escaped a life-threatening disaster. They were filled with panic.They stopped simultaneously upon arriving beneath a massive platform in a grand dojo.“We need to sort this out first,” the Yang Governor glared fiercely at Gladwin. “Who's going to explain this later, you or me?”Gladwin swallowed nervously. “Of course, it should be you.”“Why should it be me?” the Yang Governor scoffed. “Haven't you always claimed to be Lord Goyo's top confidant and meddled in our alliance's affairs? Now you're chickening out when there's a major issue?”Gladwin's face twitched. “This has nothing to do with cowardice. It's your duty as the leader of the Path Guardian Alliance.”The Yang Governor laughed in exasperation. “You've always been the one gathering intelligence across the myriad realms, boasting that you're better than Yegor from Skyn
That was the first thing he asked after surviving a monumental battle. James patted his shoulder. "The twenty thousand men…" "As long as it's broken," Wyot interjected, staring into the emptiness. "It's a pity the Dark World is gone forever."James wanted to respond, but the other survivors gathered around them. After the battle and the aid of the path source, they had ascended to Path Emperors, becoming top powerhouses in the myriad realms.James nodded, then waved his hand, summoning a path pearl that gleamed with holy light. The light and aura it radiated were enough to make any living being kneel before it.Just as James was about to act, Wyot knelt on one knee, followed by his warriors.James frowned. "Wyot, brothers, you have the right to stand…""We will not be Deified until the Leere Tribulation is broken!" Wyot declared loudly, clasping his fists. His warriors did the same."We will not be Deified until the Leere Tribulation is broken!"Their voices were unified, echo
Then, the Formation of Perception shook violently. When he snapped out of it, he realized that the twenty thousand Doom Race warriors led by Xezal had almost all perished.Among the remaining ones, three were losing their bodies. Hastily, James tossed three path sources into the formation, but it did not stop their bodies from crumbling."Move them out, quickly," urged Zella. "They're under immense pressure inside."James waved his hand and broke the Formation of Perception.Xezal and his remaining warriors—just three of them—appeared in the void. They were tattered and covered in blood. Their hair was unkempt, and they were barely recognizable. These were heroes who had experienced hell.Though wobbling, they stood in battle stances. Their valiance and undying will moved James. He turned his hand and covered them with four path sources, then told them to sit and heal."That's the Doom Race for you. The fact that they survived this titanic battle says a lot about their talent," Z
"Fourth, I have left some treasures for the Yaneiri Clan. They should be enough to establish yourselves in the new world. Fifth, do not be Deified. Never, ever do that. You must keep the Yaneiri Clan safe."Wynton's body contorted, plunging him into further pain. Cracks spread across his skin. "You owe me, James! You owe my clan!" he roared for the last time in his life before crumbling into dust.The light strips that imprisoned him shattered as well, and purple flames lunged at James' light wall, the shockwaves splintering it into fragments before rampaging toward the inconsolable Zella.James flew to Zella, scooped her up, and they took off. The shockwaves from Wynton's self-destruction rapidly spread, obliterating the surrounding formations.But that wasn't the end. Once freed, the shockwave rippled across the Dark World, annihilating everything in its path. Countless universes met their demise.Meanwhile, James protected the remaining Doom Race warriors within the formation,
Wynton was hysterical, but James merely shrugged. “Wynton, they say the last act people do before they die is to be kind. I see none of that in you, and you lost to me.”“And so what?” Wynton roared. “You’re just luckier than me, James! You have a Yin governor as your wife, and she has your back all the time! You would never have come this far otherwise!”James smiled. “Keep going.”“I know you don’t want to owe me any favors.” Wynton glared at him angrily. “You gave me three free attacks to repay me for sparing you in the River of Time.“Now, I’ve given you your children’s past selves back, and you owe me once more. You’re waiting for my terms, aren’t you?”James looked resigned.“Wrong,” Wynton sneered. “I won’t ask for any promises, nor will I give you any chance to repay this debt. Now, you shall owe me a favor you can never repay!”James sensed something was wrong and was shocked. “Wynton!”Wynton, imprisoned, began to burn, flames flickering and licking his body. He roare
"That’s…" The sight of that token filled Wynton with shock. "Y-You’re working with the Shadowborns?""Will you give it to me?" James shot him a threatening look.Wynton shivered, taking a deep breath. Then, a flash of purple light burst forth, and a brilliantly shining mirror flew out from the top of his head.James released Wynton and grabbed the mirror. It resonated with the token, and both items shone blindingly, responding to each other.'It’s true,' James thought. 'The Shadowborn token the master gave me before he left can sense the Nothingness Path Mirror. But why?' Questions swirled in his mind."That mirror will do nothing for you," Wynton said. "I can’t control it, so you can’t either. The only one who can is the Yin governor."He looked at James. "And she’s cleaved in two. Unless you can merge them together, the mirror will not work. However, with just your wife’s half-self, finding Wuia’s current and future selves will be a nigh impossible task."James tucked the mirr
James remained silent. He couldn't muster a response. Now, he finally understood why the Leere Tribulation had been orchestrated and the role his wife played in it.He had initially thought that by destroying the past version of Wuia concealed within the River of Time, he could hurt Wuia. Even if he couldn't stop the Leere Tribulation, he could at least delay it.With more time, he planned to gather additional clues and eradicate all three versions of Wuia, permanently solving the problem. However, his conversation with Wynton had changed his plans.Wynton observed James standing in silence and smirked. "Of course, there's a way to do this."James furrowed his brow.Wynton, brimming with glee, continued, "Kill your wife and the Light Heavenly Path. If they vanish entirely, Wuia will never obtain the Void Spiral. Even if the Leere Tribulation materializes and he returns, his strength will be no greater than before his reincarnation. You'll have enough power to fight him."That was
