Boom! Then, Bruno’s body exploded, and he disintegrated into nothingness. Upon seeing this, the 400,000-strong army was dumbfounded. Henry, Delainey, and the Blithe King were stunned. Even James could not believe his eyes. “Is this the true power of the Infinity Steles? Sophie’s right. The stronger I am, the more terrifying the power of the Infinity Steles." James took a deep breath. If he crossed into the Sage Rank, the Infinity Steles would no longer be blunt weapons. Rather, they would transform into indestructible weapons. “J-James, did a Sage die just like that?” Delainey was in disbelief. Henry chimed in, “His physical body disintegrated into nothingness. Not even ashes remained. He’s completely gone.” “Haha…” The Blithe King praised, “How powerful and terrifying! With James and his 400,000-strong army, Sol has nothing to be afraid of!” James collected himself and smiled faintly, saying, “I merely borrowed their strength. Anyone of you would have done the same t
Mount Bane, a mountain that came from the Sealed Realms, was located in Sol. Ever since the seal had shown signs of weakening and Spiritual Energy began to recover, more and more unknown regions gradually appeared in the surroundings of Mount Bane. Every other day, there would be a new mountain in its vicinity. The Divinity Sect was located on a mountain that appeared after the Spiritual Energy recovered. As there were many Spiritual Roots beneath the mountain, it had tremendous Spiritual Energy. At that moment, Yuvaan was in the Divinity Sect’s main hall waiting patiently for news of Bruno. However, no news came although quite some time had passed. He pulled his phone out and called Bruno. However, his call would not go through. After all, Bruno had already been killed by the Infinity Steles. “What’s going on? Did something happen?” Yuvaan had a bad feeling about this. “Men!” he shouted. Soon, a few guards walked in and knelt on one knee. “Patriarch.” Yuvaan stood up
A few guards walked in. “Patriarch.” Yuvaan’s face darkened as he ordered, “Abduct everyone related to James, especially his daughter and his wife.” Yuvaan originally did not plan to resort to this. Now, it appeared that he had no other choice. “Understood.” The disciples of the Divinity Sect swiftly moved out. At the same time, James had arrived at Mount Bane, where living beings from the Three-Thousand Worlds gathered. Upon his arrival, he was immediately recognized by the crowd. “Th-That’s James!” “He’s the one who defeated Lucifer.” “He possesses 108 Infinity Steles. Although he’s weak, he can slay a Sage.” “What’s he doing here on Mount Bane?” The living beings pointed at James and discussed among them. James paid no heed to them and simply headed in the direction of the Divinity Sect. Soon, he arrived at the area where the sect was located. It was a range of undulating mountains, and at the foot of one of the mountains stood a huge stone tablet, on which t
Hearing this, Yuvaan’s expression turned solemn. He knew that James would certainly make his over here after annihilating Bruno. However, he did not expect him to be here so soon. The moment he sent his men to abduct those related to James, he was already on his doorstep. “Damn it! Did he seriously think I’d be afraid of him?” Yuvaan clenched his fists. Meanwhile, hundreds of the Divinity Sect’s disciples lay dead on the ground at the foot of the mountain. The James from before would have chosen to spare them, as he was compassionate and merciful. Now, he was different. Since they decided to resort to violence, they would have to face the repercussions. After annihilating hundreds of disciples, he ascended the stairs of the Divinity Sect. At the same time, outside Mount Bane… Henry, the Blithe King, and Delainey were already in mid-air alongside the 400,000-strong army. Having already set up the formation, all they needed to do was wait for James’ order to activate it. When
“He used the army to create a terrifying Magic Circle called the Nine Heavens God-Annihilating Formation.” “However, this formation should have been long lost. I never thought that it would see the light of day once more. Moreover, the ancient texts recorded that Pranav the War God met his demise during the battle in the Ancient Heavenly Court. This means that the only one who could obtain the formation was his daughter.” Hearing this, Marcello asked in confusion, “Jace, do you mean that James knows Pranav the War God’s daughter?” Jace shook his head and said, “I don’t know either. However, I learned everything I know from the ancient texts. Since these are the only records of this formation, I don’t know much about anything else.” Hearing this, Marcello took a deep breath. She never thought that James would have learned such a terrifying formation. Not only that, but the entire 400,000-strong army had completely mastered it. Pensive, she said, “There must be someone insane
“Today will be the day you pay for your sins.” Hearing this, Yuvaan was so enraged that he roared in laughter. “Hahaha! Who gave you the courage to make such a bold claim, James?” Yuvaan was infuriated. Though he had cultivated for thousands of years, he now had a brat pointing a sword at him. However, upon sensing the combined power of the 400,000-strong army, he suppressed the fury inside of him. Now, he could only stall for time. After calming down, he smiled faintly and said, “James, I don’t have any grievances against you. I passed judgment on you because you’re a descendant of sinners. However, not only did you not repent for your sins, but you even cultivated the Demonic Arts. I did that on behalf of the humans of the Three-Thousand Worlds.” “Haha…” James laughed coldly. “What a sh*tty excuse.” He roughly guessed that Yuvaan was trying to stall for time. Then, a thought came to mind. There was only a single possibility. Yuvaan must have known that he was coming.
However, as the power of the Infinity Steles was simply too terrifying, they formed a powerful spatial pressure. Under this pressure, Yuvaan’s speed drastically decreased and he was struck by the Infinity Steles. His rank was slightly higher than Bruno’s, so he only plummeted from the sky and crashed into the pile of rubble. He did not lose his life just yet. “Holy!” “How terrifying!” “Yuvaan’s at the peak of late-stage Sage Rank’s First Stage. To think that he doesn’t even stand a chance against the Infinity Steles…” The cultivators in the distance were completely stunned. Swoosh! From below, Yuvaan soared to the sky and stood in mid-air. At that moment, his hair was disheveled, and there were blood traces on his lips. He seemed to be in a wretched state. “Curse you! Die!” Enraged, a sword materialized in his hand. As he casually waved his sword, dark clouds blotted out the sky, and lightning flashed in the clouds. Under his control, the lightning struck the 400,00
As the Nine Heavens God-Annihilating Formation was able to deflect a Sage’s attack and distribute the damage equally among everyone, many were injured. However, the injuries were not severe. At the moment, all 400,00 cultivators were resting on the pile of rubble that used to be the Divinity Sect. Meanwhile, James breathed a sigh of relief. Yuvaan was finally dead. A few years ago, Yuvaan was a supreme being in his eyes, a gap he could never hope to cross. Now, however, he had acquired the strength to annihilate a Sage. Although he had borrowed the strength of the formation, this 400,000-strong army was brought up by him. As such, this should be considered part of his strength. Henry said, “At long last, he’s dead.” The Blithe King said smilingly, “We annihilated a Sage! Since I contributed to the effort, I guess that means I now have the right to boast about this.” As the Blithe King was one of the leaders and a principal character indispensable to the Nine Heavens God-A
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
