No one intervened to help Qhuv because now was not the time. Everyone was secretly hoping for the others to be disqualified so that they could remain in the arena.As Qhuv screamed for help, James and the others launched another wave of offensive. With the Imperial Weapon in hand, he fought against James and the others. With his powerful cultivation methods, he was able to hold off their combined attack.However, this was only possible with the crystal. Without the crystal, he would have suffered grave injuries and lost the capability to continue the battle faced against the combined efforts of five powerful fighters. Regardless, the crystal inside his body had only just begun to be depleted. James and the others needed quite some time so that the crystal completely disappeared.From afar, Maveth was watching the battle. James was his arch-rival. He believed that James would turn on him once Qhuv was removed. By then, he would have to fight against five by himself. Should that com
Maveth said, âAt this point, this is the only option. Letâs first strike and defend Qhuv.âAfter giving it some thought, Matilde said, âAlright.â.âĶJames had no idea that while they were fighting Qhuv with all their might, Maveth had already made a decision and was making allies with the intent to defend Qhuv.Qhuv was surrounded by enemies, alone and helpless.While facing the attacks of five extremely powerful cultivators, he used every tactic he had. He had even used the Fatal Realmâs most terrifying signature skill, the Lethal Bladeâs Fury.The Lethal Bladeâs Fury was a signature skill created by the Fatal Emperor. This signature skill was extremely powerful, and when combined with the Imperial Weapon, the Lethal Blade, its power was amplified even further.On the other hand, James and the others had yet to use their ultimate moves yet. They did not use their strongest signature skills. They were also slightly ruffled by Qhuvâs attacks. Nevertheless, they had yet to be inju
The five of them, James and the others, were all in their strongest state. In such a state, they could duel anyone present on their own.Right now, all five of them were up against one person.The battle had lost its suspense.As Qhuv watched this unfold, his expression grew graver. One against five. He did not have any advantage in the first place. Now, his opponents were no longer showing mercy and had all entered their strongest state. The following phase would actually be the most challenging for him.As he faced these five incredibly powerful individuals, there was a hint of despair in his heart.However, he did not blame anyone. He only blamed himself for his bad luck. If James did not target him early on, with his strength, he would definitely advance to the end.âHaha.âHe laughed wildly as his rage overcame him.âIf you want to eliminate me, Iâm going to make you pay a hefty price as well.âQhuvâs voice rang out. His roar echoed throughout the arena like thunde
James and the others looked solemn.Brielle connected telepathically with James and said, âJames, this canât go on. If this keeps up, more formidable individuals will surely join the opponents. This is extremely detrimental to us.âNaturally, James was aware of this. No more chances should be given to them. If they were given more time, they would definitely rope in more powerful individuals. In that case, they would be very passive.âCharge!â Jamesâ voice rang out. After his voice was heard, Brielle, Feb, Qusai, and Lucifer all struck simultaneously.At this moment, their hearts seemed to be connected. They appeared to have shared the same idea, which was to ignore Maveth, Matilde, and Yorick and go straight for Qhuv.James was the first to strike. With the Crepe Myrtle Divine Sword in hand, he took a step forward. As soon as he strode, his body vanished from its original location, and numerous shadows appeared above the arena in the air. Every shadow was emanating a powerf
The Ten Primordial Fiends were the ten behemoths of the Fiend Realm during the Primordial Age.All of these ten fiends were at the Grand Emperor Rank and well-known during the Primordial Age. It was never determined who was the strongest and who was the weakest of the Ten Fiends. The reason for this was that, while they were all from the Primordial Age, they did not all belong to the same time period.Among them, the Gorgers were the first to appear. They appeared at the beginning of the Primordial Age.Conversely, the majority of the others emerged in a later period.Right now, four of the Ten Fiends had appeared. The living beings present were all eager to find out which of these four vicious beasts was the strongest.With the addition of Maveth, Matilde, and Yorick to the battle, Qhuvâs side grew to four.Meanwhile, there were five on Jamesâ side.âWeâll each deal with one,â James promptly made a combat analysis and said quickly, âBrielle, stay out of the fight for the time b
Even so, Qhuv appeared a little worse for wear.âConfinement.ââCycle of Time.â...While he was using the Infinity Stele, James also employed Curse Magic. He instantly confined Qhuv. Nonetheless, Qhuvâs strength was too powerful. With Jamesâ understanding of Curse Magic, he still could not confine him completely. In an instant, he managed to break free from the Confinement and the Cycle of Time Supernatural Powers and stopped aging.However, at this precise moment, James used his most powerful Sword Move, Samadhi Sword Intent.A Sword Energy with unrivaled Sword Intent burst forth and pierced straight through Qhuvâs body.However, Qhuv attacked in response, striking the Infinity Stele with a terrifying Sword Light. Although the Infinity Stele was blocking the damage, the crystal in Jamesâ body was showing a little bit of wear.This tiny bit of wear instantly transformed into a terrible force and sank into Jamesâ body. It merged into his Sage Energy and merged into his phys
James was fighting Qhuv. Qhuv felt he could not put his strength to use and was completely under Jamesâ control.Previously, when it was one against five, his crystal was already severely depleted. Now, after another round of combat, his crystal had become even more depleted.It was down to less than a tenth of its energy.All of the previous energy was incorporated into his body. His strength had significantly increased. Despite this, he was unable to harm James. He could not deplete Jamesâ crystal.âArgh!â Qhuv continued to roar out of rage.His roar continued to reverberate. Upon seeing this, many living beings furrowed their brow. Qhuv demonstrated tremendous strength. He was not weaker than anyone else present. However, when he faced James, he was reduced to such a miserable state. All of them were considering what to do if they were personally Jamesâ opponents.Within a short period of time, these living beings watching the battle began to have all sorts of ideas.âSho
James seized the opportunity and quickly struck Qhuv. Qhuv had employed his most powerful strategies. However, when he faced James, he was attacked until he was unable to strike back. Even though his crystal had been used and his strength had increased significantly, there was nothing he could do while fighting James.In this arena, scrimmages continued to erupt. Among them, Jamesâ battle was a trouncing. In the subsequent fights, Qhuv kept taking hits, and his crystal was constantly drained.In the blink of an eye, the fierce battle had lasted for an hour. After an hour, the arena was filled with Sword Shadows. Numerous shadows merged together and instantly formed a person.As soon as James appeared, the Crepe Myrtle Divine Sword in his hand unleashed an extremely terrifying force. This force swept over like an energy wave, directly attacking Qhuvâs body.Qhuvâs body was sent flying backward.When he was sent flying, his body vanished from the arena. At this moment, t
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
âNo wonder,â Lord Goyo finally understood after an extended contemplation.He distinctly remembered that back at the Yinâs Void, Jacopo, the incarnation of Waitara Pathâs 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 Jacopoâs identity as an incarnation of Waitara Pathâs 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.âYou fool, do you realize your mistake?âThe Yang governor and Gladwin looked up simultaneously, their faces full of fear.âLord Goyo, I truly didn't notice this. I had no idea when the Dark World was separated.ââLord 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.âWe need to sort this out first,â the Yang Governor glared fiercely at Gladwin. âWho's going to explain this later, you or me?âGladwin swallowed nervously. âOf course, it should be you.ââWhy should it be me?â the Yang Governor scoffed. âHaven'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?âGladwin's face twitched. âThis has nothing to do with cowardice. It's your duty as the leader of the Path Guardian Alliance.âThe Yang Governor laughed in exasperation. âYou'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 menâĶ" "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 standâĶ""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 warriorsâjust three of themâappeared 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. âWynton, 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.ââAnd so what?â Wynton roared. âYouâre 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!âJames smiled. âKeep going.ââI know you donât want to owe me any favors.â Wynton glared at him angrily. âYou gave me three free attacks to repay me for sparing you in the River of Time.âNow, Iâve given you your childrenâs past selves back, and you owe me once more. Youâre waiting for my terms, arenât you?âJames looked resigned.âWrong,â Wynton sneered. âI wonât 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!âJames sensed something was wrong and was shocked. âWynton!âWynton, imprisoned, began to burn, flames flickering and licking his body. He roare
"ThatâsâĶ" The sight of that token filled Wynton with shock. "Y-Youâre 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.'Itâs 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 canât control it, so you canât either. The only one who can is the Yin governor."He looked at James. "And sheâs cleaved in two. Unless you can merge them together, the mirror will not work. However, with just your wifeâs half-self, finding Wuiaâs 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
