James passed through the formation and entered the grotto.Shortly after, he arrived at the stone chamber.James saw the blurred figure sitting in a lotus position within the stone chamber.The figure kept fluttering and changing, making it hard to determine its real appearance.“What’s the matter this time?”The figure parted his lips, and a hoarse voice resounded.James stared at the figure and unleashed his Divine Sense to scan the figure, trying to understand the figure’s background.He sensed a potent aura coming from the figure, which was similar to that of Master Mateo, who he encountered in the Ecclesiastical Restricted Zone.James was sure the Ursa powerhouse was really an Acmean. He tried to gauge how much power the Ursa had left.“You’re trying to spy on me?”The Ursa’s face darkened, and he raised his hand, attempting to blast James away.James hurriedly parted his mouth and shouted, “Wait! I have something to say!”The figure lowered his hand and said coldly, “
James did not gain much information from the brief conversation.However, he left a sigil in the stone chamber and could constantly monitor the Ursa.When James returned, Mila was relieved.James lifted the seal on Mila.“You’re done?” Mila looked at James.“Yeah.” James nodded.Afterward, James briefed Mila about the conversation he had with the Ursa.Startled, Mila looked at James and asked, “Why are you telling me this?”James instructed her, “You find a way to relay these information to the Omnipotent Lord so he is aware of these things.”James needed the Omnipotent Lord to be aware of these facts. Otherwise, his scheme would be exposed when the Omnipotent Lord revisited the Ursa. If the Ursa’s guard was raised, it would be very troublesome.“Alright.” Mila nodded.“You can go back to what you two were doing.” James glanced at Mila.Mila immediately blushed.Afterward, James disappeared.Mila undressed and climbed back into bed.James used his Time Path’s Power to
Regardless of how strong the Ursa was, he was definitely not at his prime.James had to hurry up and search for the mysterious bird, Yehosheva, Yahveh, and Jehudi.All of them were Nine-Power Macrocosm Ancestral Gods. Meanwhile, the little bird was close to reaching the Acme Rank. Yehosheva was also at the last stage of the Macrocosm Ancestral God Rank. Moreover, they were very trustworthy people.“Stay on guard here for now, Quiomars. I’ll have to go to the Dark World.”James did not want to waste any time.Quiomars nodded and said, “Don’t worry, Master. Nothing will happen with me on guard.”“Alright. I’ll get some people and return as soon as possible.”James left a few words and disappeared from Mount Thea instantly.The next moment, he had already appeared at the periphery of the Dark World. As soon as he arrived, he let out his Divine Sense to scan the Dark World.He immediately detected the little bird’s aura.The little bird, Morangorin, was currently in Nightmare Wel
Several forces emerged from Morangorin’s wings, combining into a violent gust of wind.The wind swept forward and crashed into the protective formations.Lord Maeve shouted, “Strengthen the formation!!!”Following his command, all the Nightmare Welkin’s Holy Site creatures immediately mobilized their power to strengthen and stabilize the formations.No matter how strong Morangorin was, he could not break the formations being strengthened by the powerhouses inside the Nightmare Welkin’s Holy Site.He was pretty troubled by the situation.Swoosh!At that moment, a figure appeared in front of Morangorin.Seeing that it was James, Morangorin was thrilled. “You came just in time! Help me take down the Nightmare Welkin’s Holy Site.”James frowned slightly at him and asked, “What are you doing this time? Aren’t things going well? Why are you bothering them?”Morangorin retorted, “What do you know?“Fine, I’ll tell you. There’s a body within the Nightmare Welkin’s Holy Site. It ca
A powerhouse of the Nightmare Welkin’s Holy Site had almost exhausted his strength. He looked at Lord Maeve and said solemnly, “How about we forget it, Lord Maeve? As long as we still have the bodhi tree, we can still grow fruits. If they want bodhi fruits, we should just give them some.”“Pfft!!!”At that moment, a crack appeared in the formation. A trace of energy leaked inside and struck a Lord, immediately injuring him. He spat out a mouthful of blood as he was blasted backward. Shortly after, he slammed into the ground.After he was injured, many other Lords were also taken down.The crack on the formation enlarged, and many more Lords were wounded.“That’s enough! Stop it!”Lord Maeve looked at James and Morangorin, shouting, “Stop attacking! I’ll open our formations!”James and Morangorin stopped their attacks.Lord Maeve opened the protective formations with a solemn expression.James and Morangorin boldly entered the Nightmare Welkin’s Holy Site.After being permitte
Morangorin fled speedily, and James almost lost track of him. However, James persisted and caught up to him in the depths of the Unknown Region.James grabbed Morangorin’s wings, slapped his head, and reprimanded him, “You think you can run?”Morangorin said with dissatisfaction, “Who’s running? Do you think I would run? What kind of joke is that? I’m simply training a bit. What if I encounter danger in the future and can’t run fast enough? Go on. Tell me what you need from me.”James went straight to the point, saying. “There’s an Ursa from the Primordial Realm Era hiding in the outside universe. He’s a ticking bomb, and I need to eliminate him. You need to help me.”“I won’t be able to.”Morangorin immediately refused to help.“Are you kidding, brat? An Ursa that existed since the Primordial Realm Era is definitely an Acmean. How do you expect me to help you? I don’t want to die, so forget about it. I absolutely won’t be able to help you. I’ll give you some fruits.”After spea
James went to the Dark World and found a few people to help him.The mysterious bird, Morangorin, was a peak Nine-Power Macrocosm Ancestral God close to reaching the Acme Rank.In addition, he sought the help of Yehosheva, a powerhouse at the late stage of the Lord Rank’s Ninth Stage, as well as Jabari and Xulia, both Ninth Stage Lords.His team was very powerful. However, their opponent was an Acmean. Even though he was injured and not at his prime, it would be tough to kill him.They would have to be well prepared to kill him.James requested them to hide their aura and disguise themselves. Then, he brought them into the Ancestral Holy Site.Although the Ancestral Holy Site was the Omnipotent Lord’s territory, Mount Thea was his residence, and he had already set up a formation around the area.Inside the main hall of Mount Thea, Jabari asked, “What do you plan to do next, James?”James casually waved his hand, and live footage appeared before them.The footage was of the s
James said, “But we’re still unsure how exactly he got injured and what he needs to restore his strength.”Yehosheva replied, “You don’t need to worry about these things for now. We can figure them out slowly. It’s more important you find Yahveh and Jehudi. Every extra powerhouse we can recruit will increase our chances of winning.”“Alright.” James nodded.After a brief discussion, James left.It was very easy for him to find two Macrocosm Ancestral Gods in the universe with his current strength.He quickly found Yahveh and Jehudi without much effort. So far, James had gathered the candidates he had in mind.These people were the strongest people he was acquainted with. Since they were all from the Ecclesiastical Restricted Zone, they were all trustworthy.James temporarily arranged for them to live within Mount Thea.Meanwhile, he monitored the Ursa and waited for an opportunity.Unfortunately, the Omnipotent Lord never saw the Ursa during this period. Thus, the Ursa sil
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
