At that moment, a figure suddenly appeared.Yevpraksiya immediately collected herself and hurriedly stood up while crying out in excitement, “You’re back, Mr. Caden!”“Mhm.” James nodded slightly.Yevpraksiya looked at James, who had been in closed-door meditation for two hundred years now. Then, she realized that James had changed. When he entered the closed-door meditation two centuries ago, he was full of malevolent power inside his power. This time, however, she felt she was facing a razor-sharp divine sword that could tear apart her physical body at will.James’ aura subsided.Yevpraksiya could feel the intimidating aura dissipating until it completely vanished.She smiled and said, “So what did you cultivate this time, Mr. Caden?”James smiled and said nothing. Instead, he shifted the subject and asked, “How long more till we reach the Holy Realm?”All these years, Yevpraksiya had been paying close attention. That was because she knew that James would leave his closed–doo
The Elixir Realm was located in the core region of this galaxy. There were other galaxies outside the Elixir Realm. To enter the Elixir Realm, one would first need to travel to the other galaxies and their core planets to borrow the intergalactic passageway.The Saucer continued straight ahead.Soon, they arrived at the galaxy where the Spiritual Realm was located. Before them was a space station heavily guarded by powerful soldiers. All of them were armor-clad, and they wielded a long sword. Their aura was intimidating, and even the weakest were at least at the Divine Rank.Upon seeing so many Divine Rank soldiers in one place, James knew just how weak he was. He was nothing but an insignificant creature at his rank.James’ Saucer was intercepted, and he and Yevpraksiya got off the Saucer. A man wearing golden armor and wielding a sword walked toward them. He was the general guarding the Holy Realm.There were many space stations outside the eight galaxies of the Holy Realm,
“Since you’re free now, I’ll extrapolate for you.”In a courtyard in the depths of a city inside the Celestia Abode, Emperor Jabari’s status came to life and materialized into a man. However, his body was illusory and dim, seemingly on the verge of disappearing.Emperor Jabari sat in a lotus position on the ground and raised his hands. Then, mysterious characters materialized in his palms, gathering to form an extrapolation pattern. Meanwhile, mysterious auras and characters kept materializing from within him.It lasted for about ten minutes.“There is, James,” he answered.Hearing this, James asked in excitement, “Which one?”Emperor Jabari said, “The Mystic Piece, used for creating blood.”“Mystic Piece?”James froze. There was no such thing called the Mystic Piece in the list given to him by Emperor Jabari.Emperor Jabari hurriedly explained, “The Mystic Piece is more advanced than the ingredients on the list. The one I scried was materialized from the Blood Essence of a po
The Boundless Realm had existed since the Primeval Age. This world had never been through a dark age, whereas the outside world had experienced the Ancient Heavenly Court Age and the Primordial Age. Thus, anything could happen inside the Boundless Realm.The Mystic Piece that Emperor Jabari extrapolated was the fusion of a divine object and the Blood Essence of a dead powerful figure, which materialized after countless years. The fluid of the Mystic Piece was the perfect item to create blood. So, Emperor Jabari instructed time and again for James to search for the Mystic Piece. That was because the rarer the ingredient for reshaping his physical body, the stronger he would be post-resurrection. If every ingredient were some of the rarest and highest calibers, he would be at least at the Grand Emperor Rank’s Second Heaven upon resurrection. After having a physical body, it would be much easier for his soul to be recovered.James and Yevpraksiya left the mountain range and soon arrived
The World Pavilion was considered a powerful sect in the Spiritual Realm. Its influence was not beneath the Paragon Sect of the Eidolon Realm, and its Lord was a powerful individual at the Grand Emperor Rank’s Second Stage. Thus, James managed to acquire information about the World Pavilion easily.After learning of this information, James could not help but feel a chill down his spine. If even the Lord of the World Pavilion could be defeated by a beast in Mount Baidi, it would be nigh impossible for him to find the Mystic Piece there. Even so, he had to try his luck. After all, this concerned the resurrection of Emperor Jabari.Thus, upon learning of the World Pavilion’s whereabouts, he headed toward there alongside Yevpraksiya.Though this place was far away from the World Pavilion, every city in the Spiritual Realm had a Teleportation Formation. After a few teleportations, James and Yevpraksiya finally arrived at a city nearby the World Pavilion.This city was called World City.
The World Pavilion was considered a big sect in the Spiritual Realm, and the disciples that guarded the entrance possessed extraordinary strength. A random disciple was able to send James flying and spurting blood with any move.Yevpraksiya hurriedly rushed over to James’ side and helped him up, asking with concern, “Are you alright, Mr. Caden?”He hurriedly took out a piece of cloth and wiped off the blood trace on James’ lips.“I’m alright.”James stood up and looked straight ahead. There were about eight disciples of the World Pavilion before him.“The Lord is injured? What kind of sick joke is this?”“So even an insignificant creature like you is trying to infiltrate the World Pavilion now?”“Leave at once, kiddo. If it weren’t for the fact that the Sect Elder explicitly forbids us from killing in the vicinity of the World Pavilion, you would have died.”They all looked at James with smug expressions on their faces.If a Grand Emperor was here claiming that the Lord was in
James’ last encounter with the young man who was leading the way was in the Eidolon Realm. He was Jules Daniela, a powerful Alchemist at the Quasi-Emperor Rank and the Young Master of the Elixir Pavilion.James stood up from the rock he was sitting on when he saw Jules. His handsome face was adorned with a bright smile, this man walked towards him with confidence. He had come to the World Pavilion to ask for one’s hand in marriage. During his last quest to conquer Xainte Callahan in the Eidolon Realm, he did not expect to find himself embroiled in a war. After he left the Cursed World, he returned to the Holy Realm. Though the Realm was humongous in size with a large range of beautiful women available, he was only interested in a handful of them. One of them was the Grand Priestess of the World Pavilion. All these years, he has acquired quite a number of beauties thanks to his position in the Realm. However, this has not quenched his thirst for more. What he wanted was for all women t
The Pavilion’s influence in this world was unquestionable with its franchises everywhere. As a symbol of the prestige of being the Elixir Pavilion’s Young Master, ordinary disciples knelt before him even though the World Pavilion had little tangible connection with the Elixir Pavilion. Jules seemed to be used to receiving this kind of treatment.Staring at these kneeling disciples, he asked coldly, “Who’s the one in charge here?”The person who hit James before this moved forward in a kneeling position and spoke carefully, “It was me.”“Your name?” Jules asked.“It’s Ladio Harlberg, Young Master.”Suddenly, Jules sent Ladio flying with a forceful kick. Ladio landed on the ground a distance away from Jules. This frightened the rest of Ladio’s group, so much so that silence was all they could manage.Jules walked towards Ladio and put his foot on this helpless disciple. Looking him in the eye, Jules said, “Do you know why I hit you?”Pinned to the ground, Ladio was in great discom
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
