Yermolai stared at James, trying to see through him.When they were in the Fire Realm, he could sense many different powers from James’ aura. However, James’ various powers were stacked over each other, making it hard to judge how many Paths James had cultivated.Yermolai could not sense it clearly. Neither could the powerhouses in the distance.After James stepped into the Quasi Ancestral Rank’s Theosophical Rank, a subtle connection formed between his Path Seals. His sixteen powers were stacked on each other and were hard to detect.James was intrigued by Yermolai, an Ancestral God who had cultivated ten Path Seals.He wanted to test out the strength of a powerhouse from the First Universe that had cultivated ten Path Seals.James looked at Yermolai and said, “You’re Yermolai from the First Universe, right? I’m assuming you’ve come for the Chaotic Treasure here. Your master is the Omnipotent Lord, and you’re ranked first on the Soaring Dragon Ranking. You must also have a Choat
Yermolai’s attack looked relatively simple and was not fancy. However, it contained extreme comprehension of cultivation. James felt as if his vision blurred, and suddenly a blow had already struck him.The force blasted a hole through his body, and he immediately began to bleed.James was also knocked away.As he was blasted through the void, his surroundings also collapsed.Yermolai stood in place and watched James being knocked into the distance. He said calmly, “You’re indeed powerful. It’s no wonder a dozen or so powerhouses at the peak of the Quasi Ancestral God Rank couldn’t do anything to you. However, I’m already an Ancestral God. Your strength is far inferior to mine.”Yermolai slowly walked toward James.“I’ll give you two options, James.“You either hand over the primitive living being that obtained the Chaotic Treasure or tell me your cultivation method to achieve more than nine Path Seals.”Yermolai’s voice resounded.James was blasted quite a distance before he
Yermolai was terrifyingly strong.James was already a Quasi Ancestral God at the Theosophical Rank. Moreover, he had entered the Omniscience Path’s Second Stage. Yet, he was unable to stand his ground against Yermolai.Henrik watched the battle from afar. He had witnessed James’ strength before. However, Yermolai’s strength was beyond his imagination, and James was being trounced. He murmured, “I never expected Yermolai to be so terrifying after becoming an Ancestral God.”The other powerhouses watching the fight were equally as shocked.“Yermolai is so strong.”“As expected from the number one on the Soaring Dragon Ranking. Even though James can fight over a dozen powerhouses on the Soaring Dragon Ranking, he’s at a huge disadvantage against Yermolai.”“Indeed. Yermolai is terrifying. He probably has the strength to defeat all the powerhouses in the new universe.”“That’s not necessarily true. Yermolai is simply the first to step into the Ancestral God Rank. When the others a
James’ aura was boosted after he activated two Macrocosm Powers.“He can still improve his strength?”Sensing the change in James’ aura, Yermolai was surprised. He thought, “This guy is outrageous. He can keep increasing his strength. I have to be careful. Otherwise, I might lose to him.”James shouted, “Come at me again!”His voice was like rumbling thunder, and it shattered the void.This time, James took the initiative to attack Yermolai.James was incredibly powerful with the boost of two Macrocosm Powers and his other Path Seals’ Power.He flashed before Yermolai and attacked.Yermolai also urged all his strength to resist the attack.Their battle broke out in the depths of the new universe. None of them wielded weapons. They fought with pure strength.Every punch and kick they made during the fight contained destructive strength.After mobilizing two Macrocosm Powers, James had the upper hand against Yermolai. Although Yermolai was an Ancestral God with ten Paths, he s
The starry space was dead silent.Countless spatial rifts appeared, releasing turbulent power.Yermolai stood atop a star.The star was a solid matter.Meanwhile, James’ clothes were torn, and his skin was exposed.Mysterious inscriptions floated on the surface of his skin. Powerful energy emerged from his body and affected the stars around him. The stars began to rotate under the influence of his energy. Unable to withstand James’ power, a few stars cracked and disintegrated.James stood in the distance.He used two Macrocosm Powers and could overpower Yermolai in the beginning. However, Yermolai retook the upper hand after exerting all his strength.James’ body was riddled with injuries. Even with the Life Paths’ Power, a few of them could not be healed because they were trauma dealt by a Great Path.James activated the Five Great Paths’ Power, fusing them to form his third Macrocosm Power.As soon as James’ third Macrocosm Power formed, it stacked with his other two Macr
Yermolai floated in the starry space, and the Staff of Destruction illuminated his surroundings. At that moment, he looked like an ethereal being.“The new universe’s space hasn’t stabilized yet and will be destroyed if we continue fighting here. We might end up destroying the entire universe. How about we fight in the Chaos, James?”Yermolai’s fighting spirit had risen significantly.Seeing that James had such terrifying strength, he wanted a good fight.Regardless of the outcome, he wanted to go all out with James.In the First Universe, he was almost unbeatable against those of the same cultivation rank. He had not met a worthy opponent all these years. For once, he could go all out in a fight.The Omnipotent Lord had bestowed him the Staff of Destruction.The Staff of Destruction was a Chaotic Treasure inlaid with a Macrocosm Core.The Omnipotent Lord had obtained the Macrocosm Core from the Chaos.If the Omnipotent Lord had not taken the Macrocosm Core, it would have even
The two gave it their all but were stuck at a standstill.The Demon-Slayer Sword pressed against the Staff of Destruction but failed to push Yermolai away.While in a stalemate, magical inscriptions appeared from the crystal on the Staff of Destruction. Powerful force emerged from the inscriptions, and the Staff of Destruction let out a dazzling glow.James was immediately blown away by the mysterious force.His arm went numb from the shock, and he almost lost his grip on the Demon-Slayer Sword. “That’s a very powerful Chaotic Treasure.”James was startled.While James was still marveling at the Staff of Desutrction’s strength, Yermolai launched another attack.The Staff of Destruction glowed brightly, and the light rays gathered to form a terrifying spatial cage to trap James.The light rays kept shrinking around James.James held onto the Demon-Slayer Sword and kept slashing at the light rays.The intense battle between the two continued in the Chaos.James and Yermolai
Yermolai sustained severe injuries in just a short moment. His Path Seals were cracked and could not support him to continue fighting James much longer.He held up the Staff of Destruction, resisting the Boundless Stele.James knew defeating an Ancestral God with a Chaotic Treasure would not be easy.Although Yermolai suffered severe trauma, he still had the strength to fight.“Karma Power.”James’ Karma Power swept over and surrounded Yermolai.Yermolai was injured by the Karma Power, and his injuries worsened.However, he dispelled the Karma Power almost instantly.James frowned. Then, he cast his ultimate move.“Grand Destruction.”The sixteen Path Seals in his body united and formed a new power. The power caused the surrounding space in the Chaos to tremble and distort, making it seem as if it was about to collapse.When James stepped into the Theosophical Rank, he had comprehended a new Supernatural Power—Grand Desutrcition.It was a Supernatural Power that fused the p
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
