The three of them advanced at high speed. They did not tear apart the void to get to their destination. However, since all three of them were powerful figures, they could still move very quickly. One step, and they disappeared from the area.Very soon, Thea started sensing the battle as well. Her expression was serious as she said, “The remnants of the battle are frightening. Those fighting must have attained the Grand Emperor Rank’s Fifth Heaven or beyond.”James’ power was comparatively weak, so he could not sense the aura of the battle. However, after hearing what Thea said, he was stupefied. A fight between figures of the Grand Emperor Rank’s Fifth Heaven? There were only a handful of them in the Boundless Realm. He thought of a possibility—a fight between the Leader of the Sanctuary of Darkness and Grand Emperor Moacir Bartholomew.“Hurry,” he called out, and his companions picked up speed.It did not take long for James to finally sense the battle’s aura. The aura was so oppr
“The Heavenly Path manages all rules and order. Without the constraint of the Path, the entire world will be in chaos. In the Primeval Age, the Ancestral Gods of the Human Race wanted to destroy the Path because of personal interest, causing the entire destruction of the Age as well. Humans have sinned.”Hearing this, James merely continued watching the battle. The middle-aged man in a gray robe was losing due to the simultaneous attack by many powerful figures of the Sanctuary of Darkness. The man should be Moacir, he guessed.Even though Moacir was losing, that did not mean that the Sanctuary would have an easy time defeating or killing him.James was disinterested in whatever Tadhg was saying. At this point in time, the urge to kill James surfaced in Tadhg’s heart. He clenched his fists, wanting to attack James. However, the ring on James’ finger suddenly lit up, followed by a flash of white light, from which a handsome man wearing a white robe appeared. The man stood in front
In the deepest parts of the Boundless Sea, two intense battles were being fought. One was a battle between Emperor Jabari and the Leader of the Sanctuary of Darkness, Tadhg Gallagher. The other was between Grand Emperor Moacir Bartholomew and many powerful figures of the Sanctuary.Having attained the Grand Emperor Rank’s Seventh Heaven, he was one of the top three strongest figures in the Boundless Realm. However, he was very humble, staying within the Boundless Sea and never stepping into other worlds. That was why very few knew about his existence.At this moment when he was fighting against so many powerful figures of the Sanctuary, he was forced to return to his original form—a whale as big as an island. Moacir’s power ascended when he returned to his original form. Apart from Tamuuz Darkness, no other figure from the Sanctuary could actually harm him. The most they could do was annoy him.Tamuuz felt pressured immediately. He held a long, black sword, swinging it from side to
James casually waved his hand, and powerful Sword Energy materialized and slashed this shapeless power.“Goodbye.”James’ expression was devoid of emotion. Holding the Divine Sword in hand, he pierced the elderly man. Though his move seemed ordinary, it actually contained countless sophisticated moves that were merged into one. Space seemed to be sealed, and time appeared to have been frozen.The elderly man froze.In the meantime, James’ sword was already right before him.He reacted in time and raised his hand to block the attack. As he raised his hand, countless mysterious Inscription Sigils emerged in his palm, gathering to form a bizarre pattern. Mysterious power appeared from within the pattern, and James’ sword pierced through the pattern.Boom!The First Sword Realm with the boost of the Divine Sword was terrifying. James’ sword had surpassed even his own strength, and an unbelievable power burst forth. The mysterious sigils formed were instantly shattered, and the sword
Tadhg Gallagher, Leader of the Sanctuary of Darkness, was at the peak of the Eighth Heaven of the Grand Emperor Rank. He seldom made a move in public for he was near invincible in the Boundless Realm. Even during the previous assault on the Pavilion, he did not intervene. As such, Tamuuz could not believe that someone would be able to overwhelm Tadhg in the Boundless Realm.While he was distracted, Moacir counterattacked and injured him. Fearful of letting his guard down again, he summoned his full strength and focused on fighting.James summoned the 108 Infinity Steles and overwhelmed all his foes, who hurriedly dodged the attacks. Then, they swiftly gathered and attacked James all at once.“Very good!”James laughed.As his mind stirred, the Five Elements of Genesis materialized from within his body, and the five treasures that had existed since the creation of heaven and earth exuded immense power. The power of the Five Elements gathered and interwoven with each other, forming
At that moment, Tadhg thought about escaping. With that thought in mind, he yelled, “Retreat!”As he spoke, he distanced himself from Jabari and hurriedly escaped. Since a Grand Emperor at the peak of the Eighth Heaven was trying to flee, even Jabari could not do anything to stop him. While Tadhg made his escape, Tamuuz and the rest of the Sanctuary fled as well. In just a short period of time, they disappeared without a trace.Though the battle was over, there was still a lingering battle aura in the air.Emperor Jabari, Thea, and Nico walked toward James and Moacir.Thea asked with concern, “Are you alright, Darling?”James smiled and said, “Of course I am.”Then, he looked at Jabari and asked, “How are you doing, Grand Emperor?”Wearing a grim expression, Jabari said, “I have yet to return to my peak form. Faced with the Leader of the Sanctuary, I can only keep him at bay. I won’t be able to annihilate him anytime soon. Besides, the Curse Magic he cultivated is terrifying. I’
“Is that so?”Moacir did not believe a single word. Even if what James said was true, there was no way he was handing over the Ancestral God Rank Elixir’s fragments, considering that the human race was fighting against the Heavenly Path.“Yes, I’m speaking the truth.” James said, “The Fourth Calamity of the human race is just around the corner. By then, Heaven’s Adjudicators will descend, and all of humankind will be annihilated.”Moacir said coldly, “I’m not a member of the human race. How does the fate of humankind concern me?”James tried convincing Moacir nicely. However, it was apparent that Moacir had no plans to give up the Ancestral God Rank Elixir.James’ face darkened, “Since you’re reluctant to hand over the elixir, let’s battle each other. I can obtain the elixir by annihilating you anyway.”Hearing this, Moacir unconsciously staggered backward. He knew just how powerful James and the others were, especially Jabari who fought against the Leader of the Sanctuary. Even
He looked at Thea and Nico and shook his head, “The outcome can’t be extrapolated.”They froze momentarily before asking in unison, “Why?”James explained, “This fragment has already transformed into a human, which is the young girl depicted in the painting. As she has inscriptions that conceal Heaven’s secret in her body, no one is able to locate her current whereabouts.”Wearing a grim expression, Nico said, “This is a little complicated.”James said with a sigh, “Now that things have come to this, we have very few options. Let’s return to the Elixir Pavilion and think of a way.”“Mhm.” Thea nodded.Though they obtained the third fragment, they could not find the whereabouts of the fourth. Thus, James decided to return to the Pavilion first.Nico slashed the void open, and the three vanished without a trace.At the same time, at an unknown location in the Boundless Realm…There was a palace in the depths of a gloomy mountain range. In the main hall of the palace, Tadhg, Tamu
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
