The Crepe Myrtle Sword Pavilion and Sangria have guarded these secrets for countless years.It had been passed down for generations.The Crepe Myrtle Sword Master was finally revealing the secret to the world. Since the fated one had appeared, there was no need to continue guarding these secrets.After hearing her explanation, the Blademaster of Mount Grinch asked, “Who is the fated one you speak of?”The Crepe Myrtle Sword Master shook her head and said, “I can’t be certain.”The Blademaster of Mount Grinch asked, “Then, how do you know the fated one has appeared?” The Sword Master explained, “Because the time has come.”“I don’t believe in this fated one story you’re telling us. But, I do believe there’s a supreme swordsmanship inheritance in the Crepe Myrtle Sword Pavilion. Could you allow us to search for it?”One of the powerhouses raised his doubts and made a suggestion.The others unanimously approved his suggestion.Those who came to the Crepe Myrtle Sword Pavilion
The Blademaster of Mount Grinch could cause some of the Sword Energies in the mountains to gather in the sky.He also suspected the inheritance was hidden within these Sword Energies. Thus, he carefully studied them but found nothing special. They were just ordinary Sword Energies left behind by the Crepe Myrtle Sword Pavilion’s sword cultivators in the past.The Sword Energies did not dissipate because an extremely huge formation was surrounding the Crepe Myrtle Sword Pavilion and preventing the Sword Energies from dispersing. Thus, these Sword Energies submerged into the mountains.The Sword Energies had nothing to do with the supreme sword-fighting techniques.Countless people searched for the swordsmanship inheritance, but no one was successful.These powerhouses stayed in the Crepe Myrtle Sword Pavilion for many days and kept searching, but all of them failed to find it.Since Sangria’s Curse still existed, these people did not dare to stay any longer and left after not obta
Walganus searched the Crepe Myrtle Sword Pavilion but could not find the swordsmanship inheritance.He fell into thought.In fact, he was not from this world. He was sent to this world by his teacher.Before his departure, his teacher told him that very powerful treasures were hidden on Planet Galileo.These treasures were none other than the Curse Magic and the swordsmanship inheritance.However, he was not the fated one he claimed to be.His teacher told him the fated one had already appeared but instructed him to seize the boons that belonged to this fated one. However, his teacher did not give him clear directions.Thus, Walganus had no idea how to seize the boons.He searched for days but could not find the treasures. In other words, he was not destined to find the sword-fighting techniques. The only chance to seize them was to wait for the real fated one to appear.However, he had no idea who the fated one was.To find out, he would have to ask the Sword Master and Xi
Walganus looked at James and said calmly, “From my understanding, James Caden is the most outstanding prodigy on Earth right now. It’s rumored he has obtained countless boons, including the Infinity Steles and the Five Elements of Genesis.”Walganus had never been to Earth nor had he met James before.However, Walganus had heard a lot about James and made a rough guess that the person before him was James. James was a person of incredible luck, and even the Heavenly Path was partial toward him. Out of all humans, the person to be the fated one must have had great luck.However, Walganus was not very sure.He was just probing the possibilities.James also knew Walganus was trying to test him.“How are you so sure I’m from outside this world?” asked James.Walganus looked at James and said slowly, “I’m also a swordsman. I can feel the potent Sword Energy in your body. Also, your whole body seems like a sword capable of destroying a world.”James felt uncomfortable as Walganus s
Walganus’ words resonated with James.After the conversation between them, the two seemed to have grown closer.Walganus did not stay for too long. After establishing a good relationship with James, he left.James continued to sit in a lotus position on the ground.He had already experienced a lot in the past, so he did not blindly trust Walganus’ words.After arriving at the Crepe Myrtle Sword Pavilion, James had been secretly observing Walganus. He felt that he was very unpredictable.James murmured, “What the hell is he trying to do? He told Xianna and the Sword Master that he was the fated one, but now he’s telling me that there are two fated people. Could it be that there really are two people fated for these boons? Could the swordsmanship inheritance and the Curse Magic really be prepared for two different people?”He immediately asked Nova in the Celestial Abode.“Nova, do you think Walganus was telling the truth?”Nova’s voice came from inside the Celestial Abode. “I d
After Walganus returned to his accommodation, veins bulged on his face, and his expression turned terrifying and ferocious. He could sense James’ strength. James’ rank was insignificant, and he posed no threat to him at all. On Planet Galileo, he would be able to seize James’ providence and treasures with ease. James was unaware that a plot against him was slowly unfolding. He did not trust Walganus, believing that he possessed malicious intentions. However, he had no idea what he was up to. Over the next couple of days, James remained at the back of the Crepe Myrtle Sword Pavilion’s main peak. Days passed. In the blink of an eye, James was already in Sangria for twenty-nine days. At that moment, starry stars illuminated the night. James was sitting on a chair in the courtyard while watching the pitch-black sky and the starry stars above as he murmured, “Today’s the twenty-ninth day, and tomorrow will be the thirtieth day. Xianna said that no man can last more than a month
That night was the most challenging night James had ever endured. That night, many of the Crepe Myrtle Sword Pavilion, which included the Crepe Myrtle Sword Master, Xianna Sadie, and Walganus Jaxon, watched his every move intently. Over the past few days, Walganus had gotten familiar with James. As such, he knew that James had already been within the borders of Sangria for a month. A man in a black robe stood on a tree in the distance and watched James, who was sitting in a lotus position in the courtyard. “Tonight’s the last night. If he can survive this, he’s certainly the fated one.” The man was Walganus. He was looking forward to James being the fated one. That way, he could help James obtain the providence before seizing them for himself. As James’ rank was insignificant, he would not pose a threat to him. Besides, he was not afraid of Sangria’s Curse. That was because his master had already given him a treasure that could resist Curse Magic. Time passed. Soon, daybr
As his mind stirred, all his pores opened up. Sword Energy materialized from within his blood, bones, and muscles and gathered to form a white Sword Energy outside his body, enveloping him like a white lightning bolt. James was akin to a sheathed sword before using the Sword Energy. Now, he was an unsheathed sword. Powerful and domineering Sword Energy radiated from his body. The Crepe Myrtle Sword Master stared at James’ Yogacara Sword Energy intently. As a Sword Cultivator, she could sense the Sword Energy’s immense power and potential. Once cultivated to its pinnacle, it could destroy anything in its path. Walganus was envious of James. Taking a deep breath, he muttered under his breath, “As expected of the Sword Energy left behind by the Ancestral Sword Master, it possesses such domineering power even at the Yogacara’s First Stage… Once it reaches the Yogacara’s Third Stage, it can annihilate anyone and anything in its way.” “What power…” Though Xianna was well-versed in
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
