Through the changes in the Law of Heaven, Sophie sought to understand the methods of obtaining the Five Elements of Genesis. However, everything backfired. She slowly stood up. Her face was pale as she murmured, “By helping James out, I have transgressed the Law of Heaven and am now contaminated by heavy Karma.” “Sophie, are you done extrapolating?” James waited for twenty minutes. Seeing that Sophie did not respond, he asked. Sophie said, “Yes, I’m done.” Hearing this, James was overjoyed. He asked, “Really?” “Yes, but… James…” Sophie opened and shut her mouth. “What’s wrong?” Sophie thought about it and decided to tell James. “By helping you out, I have been contaminated by heavy Karma. Indeed, I have discovered the way to obtain the Five Elements of Genesis. However, there is a price to pay.” “Huh? What price?” James asked. Sophie said, “In the Primeval Age, I would be judged by Heaven’s Adjudicators. I don’t know what I’ll face.” She only knew that she had b
She continued extrapolating. Soon, she spurted out a mouthful of blood. However, she obtained much useful information from the fluctuations of the Law of Heaven this time. “J-James…” Sophie said, her voice shivering. “Yes, Sophie?” She said, “I-I extrapolated some important information.” “Please tell me more about it!” James was thrilled. She said, “In the Primeval Age, the Five Ancestral Gods who controlled the Five Elements of Genesis once gathered and discussed something for some time. Then, they created an unprecedented and ground-breaking cultivation method.” “What cultivation method was it?’ James asked. “Elemental Inversion.” Sophie’s voice trembled as she said, “E-Elemental Inversion is a cultivation method created based on the Five Elements of Genesis. James, the greatest providence after the Second Calamity is not the Five Elements of Genesis, but rather the Elemental Inversion cultivation method.” James was stunned. The Five Elements of Genesis were ter
Sophie tried extrapolating the ways to obtain the Fire Genesis. Over the past few years, James’ performance had improved substantially. As she helped him out indirectly, she began to sense that she was increasingly bound together with James and that there was heavy Karma between them. To eradicate the Karma, James had to keep growing stronger. Otherwise, his Karma would fall upon her shoulders. Since things had already come to this, she believed she might as well help James one more time. However, she did not expect that she would disclose Heaven’s secret and transgress the Heavenly Path. She knew what would happen if she disclosed Heaven’s secret. However, just a moment ago, she endured excruciating pain and told James about the information she acquired. Fortunately, remnants of Emperor Jabari’s soul lingered in the Celestial Abode, or else she would have been doomed. As Emperor Jabari completely vanished, she breathed a sigh of relief and sat in a lotus position on the ground.
“A painting?” James froze momentarily. The moment his eyes gazed upon the scenery, he thought it was real. It appeared that it was only a painting. “Could Elemental Inversion be related to the painting? Are the five elderly men in the painting the Five Ancestral Gods who controlled the Five Elements of Genesis and created Elemental Inversion in the Primeval Age?” James murmured. “Who are you?” Just as James’ gaze was fixed on the painting, a voice came. “Huh?” Puzzled, James turned to the side and saw a man staring at him in the distance. James returned the stare. The man was around twenty years old. Wearing a blue robe, he had long hair and a somewhat handsome-looking appearance. “Who are you?” James was on guard. He only found this place with the help of Sophie’s guidance, and this was where Elemental Inversion was located. Now that an outsider was here, this man before him must know about Elemental Inversion. That would make him an enemy. The man wearing a blue
James and the man in a blue robe turned to look at the source of the laughter. From afar, two people approached them. They were a man and a woman. “Marcello… Jace…” Upon seeing them, James furrowed his eyebrows. Why were they here?After some thought, he believed that this was only natural. After all, they came from the Demon Realm and were members of the Demon Race. Meanwhile, the Demon Race was a terrifying force in the Primordial Age. They managed to singlehandedly bring about a collapse of an era. As such, there must be extremely powerful figures among the Demon Race. Since Sophie knew of Elemental Inversion’s existence, there was no way the Demon Race would not be in the know. Marcello walked toward James, glanced at him, and pursed her lips, saying smilingly, “I knew you weren’t an ordinary person. You must have someone’s backing. However, I didn’t expect him or her to know of this place.” James smiled faintly and said, “In that case, I assume you’re here for Element
They turned their heads. A gorgeous woman walked toward them from afar. Though she approached from a distance, she appeared before the crowd in the blink of an eye. The woman was approximately 180 centimeters tall and was wearing a red dress. She had long black hair, delicate features, and fair skin as white as snow. With a smile, she introduced herself, "Hello, my name is Nyasia Ximena. I come from Jodon.” Hearing this, Jace, Lucifer, and the man in a blue robe all took a few steps back. James asked puzzledly, “What’s Jodon?” “It’s a mysterious and terrifying place. There’s no need for you to know all this at the moment, Now, you only need to know that Jodon is comparable to the Demon Race in strength.” “Oh.” James looked at the woman called Nyasia puzzledly. Meanwhile, Nyasia smiled, “I wanted to come to Earth a long time ago. At long last, I’m finally here. Pleased to make your acquaintances.” James smiled and said, “Hi, Nyasia, my name is James Caden.” Marcello
Nyasia had no idea how to decipher the Five-Elements Painting. However, she knew that Willibald would certainly know since he had a powerful backer─his master, who was also terrifying. Indeed, Willibald knew how to decipher the Five-Elements Painting. But he also knew that to obtain Elemental Inversion, he required a great amount of good fortune and not the methods to decipher the painting. He nodded slightly and said, “Yes, I know.” Hearing this, everyone turned to look at him. He said, “My master told me that the Five-Elements Painting is a priceless treasure in the Primeval Age and has been passed down over countless generations. To decipher the Five-Elements Painting, we need five different powers.” Hearing this, Nyasia asked, “Do you mean True Elemental Energy?” “Mhm,” Willibald said. Furrowing his eyebrows, James said, “This is getting complicated. We have acquired such great strength. There’s no way we’ll give up on True Essence and cultivate True Elemental Energy.
A few elderly men were chit-chatting. Meanwhile, James and the others waited outside the gazebo. However, the elderly men seemed to not have noticed them. James furrowed his eyebrows and said, “What’s going on? It seems that they can’t see us.” However, at that moment, an elderly man wearing a golden robe turned suddenly and glanced at him, saying smilingly, “We have company.” The others turned as well and looked at James and the others. Marcello said, “My name is Marcello Mariano. It’s an honor to meet you.” “Haha…” One of the elderly men stroked his chin and smiled at James and the others, saying, “I never expected the Five-Elements Painting we left behind would one day appear to see the light of day again. It even brought us a few youngsters.” At that moment, Sophie’s voice came, “James, this is a scenery from the Primeval Age. The people in front of you should be the Five Ancestral Gods. They do not exist in this era, but they already knew what would happen despite
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
