Wollongong had no idea how James knew about Mount Baidi. He also had no idea why James was aware that he knew about Mount Baidi.There was too much to Mount Baidi’s secret. He definitely could not tell them.Jules was out of ideas. He even showed the martial community token, but it was no use.The martial community token was given to him by his grandfather. His grandfather gave him it specifically because he was afraid that he would face danger while out and about.Jules glanced at James, who was sitting in a nearby chair, his face pensive.He was actually worried that James would flip outJules had witnessed James’ strength firsthand. If James flipped out, the World Pavilion would be doomed. He was still hoping to marry Monica, and he did not want the World Pavilion to meet such a fate.Nonetheless, James was only pondering. He showed no signs of rage.‘As expected of Mr. Caden,’ Jules thought to himself. His respect for James was like an endless deluge.After some deliberati
After he left, Yevpraksiya, who was standing behind James, finally said, “Sir, why exactly are you going to Mount Baidi in search of the divine object?”“You’ll know later.”James did not say much. He leaned against a chair, closed his eyes, and started to think about what he should do next.Yevpraksiya, on the other hand, stood behind him and massaged his shoulders.At this moment, Jules arrived at the main hall of the World Pavilion once again.Wollongong was talking to Grasberg about something. When he saw Jules approaching, he immediately closed his mouth.Jules walked over with a smile and glanced at Monica, who was nearby.Monica had a perfect figure and a perfect face. She was truly a rare, elegant beauty.Jules’ gaze caused Monica’s heart to fill with disgust. She snarled, “What are you looking at?” “Right.”Only then did Jules come out of his trance. He looked at Wollongong, who was at the forefront, bowed, and said, “Master of the World Pavilion, I came here this t
Wollongong asked about James.He was curious as to what kind of person James was to command such a high level of respect from the Young Master of the Elixir Pavilion.Monica was very displeased, but she did not leave. Now that she heard the Master of World Pavilion inquire about James, her interest was piqued as well, and she listened intently nearby.As soon as Wollongong asked about James, a look of respect appeared on Jules’ face.“You have no idea how terrifying Mr. Caden is.”He began to get lost in his memories.“A while ago, I headed to the Eidolon Sect, but I accidentally got caught up in a conspiracy and entered a Cursed World.“Do you know about curses?“It’s Curse Power. According to rumors, it is a power left by an Ancestral God during the Primeval Age. That world is filled with Curse Power.“In that world, there was a prominent figure. This prominent figure was in control of countless vicious beasts and living beings. The weakest among these vicious beasts and liv
Jules left the main hall.Monica looked at Wollongong with a puzzled look and asked, “Master, what kind of place is Mount Baidi?”Wollongong took a deep breath and said slowly, “Mount Baidi interrelates with a major secret. The Trinity family has guarded this secret for eons.”“Mount Baidi actually exists?” Monica was surprised.However, Wollongong did not say anything else. He stood up and left the main hall.Grasberg followed.The two walked side by side.“Master, are you really going to disclose the secret of Mount Baidi?” asked Grasberg.Wollongong thought awhile and said, “The Trinity family has guarded this secret for eons. Throughout these eons, my family has given birth to powerful individuals above Grand Emperor Rank’s Fifth Heaven. Regardless, the formation of Mount Baidi has not been broken, even after our ancestors died.“If this Mr. Caden is really that powerful, he might be able to break the formation.“Moreover, Mount Baidi is only known to my family. Outsiders
Wollongong extended his trembling hands and accepted the elixir.He had visited Mount Baidi several times for this family secret. However, he was injured each time. This time, his injuries were more severe. Even as a Grand Emperor, he was unable to heal the injuries in his body.At a critical moment, James appeared.Originally, he did not want to reveal the secret, but after weighing the pros and cons, he decided to reveal it.Once he accepted the elixir, he did not consume it immediately.James looked at Wollongong and asked, “You can reveal it now, right?”Wollongong glanced at Yevpraksiya, who was behind James.James said nonchalantly, “She’s one of our own. It’s alright. Speak freely.”Wollongong sat down nearby and started to get lost in his thoughts. After a while, he finally said, “Mount Baidi is on a barren planet near Ethos Realm. This planet was very prosperous during the Primeval Age. However, time has rendered this planet obsolete. At this point, no living beings vi
After he finished speaking, he turned around to leave.Jules immediately stood up and said in a hurry, “Mr. Caden, you’re going right now?”“Mhm.”James nodded.Jules’ eyes shifted around.The inheritance from the Primeval Age was definitely something great, even though he might not get it. However, if he followed James there, even if he did not get anything significant, he would at least get some perks.Wollongong had some other ideas as well. He also stood up and said, “Mr. Caden, it’s fine not to hurry these few days. How about this? Stay for a few days at the World Pavilion first. After a few days, I’ll arrange for a disciple of my sect to take you there. What do you think?”How could James not be aware of what Wollongong was thinking?After giving it some thought, he said, “Sure.”He stayed at the World Pavilion for the time being.Wollongong turned around and left after greeting James briefly.After he left, he immediately summoned Monica, the sect’s Grand Priestess.
Wollongong did not completely believe what Jules had said. He did not believe James was actually going to Mount Baidi just for a herb.He made some plans.Over the next few days, James stayed temporarily at the World Pavilion.In the blink of an eye, three days passed.After three days, many people gathered at the entrance to the main hall of the World Pavilion’s main peak.Wollongong was explaining to James some circumstances on Mount Baidi.James kept them in mind. After he had memorized them, he looked at Yevpraksiya, who was beside him, and said, “Stay at the World Pavilion for the time being. After I found the herb that I need, I’ll come to pick you up.”“Sir.” Yevpraksiya looked reluctant. She said, “Don’t you have the Celestial Abode? Let me go inside the Celestial Abode. I can wait for you in there.”James thought for a while, then nodded. He waved his hand casually. A force then formed in his hand and collected Yevpraksiya into the Celestial Abode.Wollongong looked
“This explains why no living beings live here. It’s so dilapidated. Who would want to come here,” Jules muttered. Then, with a smile, he looked at Monica who was beside him and reminded her, “Ms. Monica. This world is dangerous. Be careful and stay by my side. I’ll protect you.”As he said that, he moved closer to Monica with the intention of taking her hand.Monica dodged out of the way just in time. With a look of disdain on her face, she said, “Who needs your protection? You should protect yourself instead.”“You shouldn’t be like this,” Jules immediately became serious. He said, “After we return, we’re going to get married. You shouldn’t resist me. You should try to get closer to me. As you get closer to me, you’ll discover my positive traits.”Monica’s face was filled with contempt. She could not be bothered to argue with Jules.Although she could not refuse this marriage, Jules would only get her person, not her heart.He moved closer to James and asked, “Mr. Caden, where 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
