Narga was horrified. He was unable to resist Ignis and sustained severe injuries. It would be the end of him if he were struck a few more times.Narga repeatedly begged for mercy and no longer had the demeanor of a mighty powerhouse. Instead, he looked like a helpless prey at the mercy of his predator.Unfortunately, James had no intentions of letting him go.James remained indifferent in the face of Narga’s pleas. He waved the Malevolent Sword, and powerful Ignis Power materialized into Sword Energies, which constantly slashed at Narga.Although Narga was injured, he was nonetheless a powerhouse at the Acme Rank. Thus, he still had some strength and quickly dodged the attacks.Boom!Blazing Sword Energies swept at him continuously, and the surrounding space exploded from the impact.Narga was furious that James ignored his pleas for mercy.“Do you really think I’m afraid of you? If I have to die, you’re coming with me.”A terrifying aura suddenly burst out from his body. He
The Sword Energy darted toward Narga. Narga could not dodge in time, and the Sword Energy pierced his body, forming a bloody wound.His flesh began to catch fire when he came in contact with the Ignis. Although he had urged all his strength to neutralize the Ignis Power, it was already too late. In just a short moment, half of his body was burnt.Just as he was stuck in a sticky situation, James launched another attack. He slashed his sword a few times, and thousands of Sword Energies shot out.James unleashed countless Sword Energies instantly and used them to surround Narga from all directions.“Argh…“No!!!“You’re going to die soon, Forty-nine! Even if I can’t kill you, the Ursas will never forgive you!!!”His furious growls echoed in the area but gradually weakened.Countless Sword Energies infused with the Ignis surrounded him and set him on fire. Soon, he was incinerated into nothingness.James put away the Malevolent Sword and dispersed the Ignis. His body plummeted
James grew excited as he looked at the Primal Mantra before him. He was curious to find out what was recorded in it. He reached out for the Primal Mantra and flipped it open.After opening the book, a white light emerged and formed ancient inscriptions before him.“This?” James was startled.The inscription sigils used in the Primal Mantra were in the most primitive, oldest, and simplest form.James could easily turn them into laws. He could even turn the most complex Paths into primitive sigils.Since the text used in the Primal Mantra was the most primal sigils, James could understand it. He had even come across a few before.The man in the black robe looked at the surprised James and said, “The Primal Mantra is the beginning of everything. Read it well. Once you thoroughly comprehend it, it’ll be easy to enter the Caelum Acme Rank.”After speaking, the man disappeared from sight.James put away the Primal Mantra.The Primal Mantra was recorded in the simplest and most pri
Those waiting outside Planet Desolation were most likely the top powerhouses of various races.With so many of their race’s prodigies trapped, it was only natural for them to show up to check on the situation.James did not rush to leave. Instead, he sat in a lotus position and continued to heal his injuries.His injuries were healed after he recuperated for a while in a time formation.He hid his aura and entered a state of invisibility. Then, he got close to the formation and waved his hand. A mysterious Formation Inscription appeared from his palm.The Formation Inscription submerged into the formation surrounding Planet Desolation.A ripple appeared in the formation, and a small crack opened.James’ body flickered, and he passed through the formation. The next moment, he appeared outside of Planet Desolation.Outside the formation, countless powerhouses were paying close attention to Planet Desolation. They immediately sensed the fluctuation in the formation.However, the
Dempsey explained upon hearing James inquire about the imprisoned Doom, “His name is Wyot Dalibor. He’s the son of the Doom Race’s current Patriarch. We went through a lot to capture him after finding out that he was out training.“Wyot is a Seventh-Power Macrocosm Ancestral God. He’s the heir of the Dooms and has a very prominent status, so we captured him alive. We didn’t execute him but kept him as a hostage to prevent the Dooms from targetting us.”Dempsey briefly explained the imprisoned Doom’s background.James was slightly taken aback. He never expected the prisoner to be the son of the Doom Race’s Patriarch and the successor of the Doom Race.Since the Doom had such a high status, James should be able to execute his plan more efficiently.“By the way, has there been any news about Thea?” asked James.It had been a long time since he came to the Greater Realms. However, he had yet to find Thea. He desperately wanted to find her and learn more information.Dempsey shook hi
Crackling electricity flowed through the black iron chains and permeated Wyot’s body. He trembled upon being shocked and let out another miserable groan.James calmly raised his hand, and a magical inscription appeared from his palm.The inscription sank into Wyot’s eyebrows and entered the deepest part of his soul.Wyot felt excruciating pain as the inscription entered his soul, and he growled, “Argh!!!”After a few moments, a sigil emerged from his body.James copied Wyot’s memories into the sigil and integrated the inscription into his soul, immediately learning about Wyot’s past experiences.Then, he took out the Soulblue and passed it to Dempsey.“I’ll leave the matter of copying his soul aura to you. I’ll cultivate for a while and make a few changes to the memories I’ve copied so I don’t get exposed when infiltrating the Dooms.”After speaking, James turned around and left the dungeon. He headed to a spiritual mountain within the Heaven-Eradicating Sect, ascended to the m
James had shapeshifted into Wyot. His only concern was that Wyot might escape from the Heaven-Eradicating Sect’s headquarters. If that happened, things would get very messy.James was relieved upon hearing Dempsey’s reassurance.“Time is running out for the humans. I won’t stay here any longer since I have to infiltrate the Dooms as soon as possible,” said James.“Be careful.”“Take care, James.”“If anything goes wrong, just abort the mission. Your survival is more important.”The Heaven-Eradicating Sect’s senior authorities reminded James one after another.James replied to them smilingly, “Don’t worry. Our plan is foolproof. It won’t take long for me to become a core member of the Dooms. I might even become their patriarch.”After speaking, James did not linger around any longer and quickly left the Heaven-Eradicating Sect’s headquarters.Dempsey and the other members of the Heaven-Eradicating Sect watched as James disappeared from their sight.“I hope James’ mission in
Then, James turned to Youri and greeted, “Great Elder.”He also looked at the other elders and called out to them, “Elders.”The Doom Race’s Patriarch, Dolph Dalibor, looked at Wyot calmly. Then, he asked, “How did you escape?”James replied calmly, “It’s a long story. Let’s head inside first.”On the main peak in the Doom Race’s territory, Dolph sat in the highest seat in the main hall. Below him were a few core members of the Dooms, all of which were elders. At the same time, they were also powerful cultivators at the Acme Rank.There were eight Acmeans inside the hall.This was different from what James knew.According to the intel he obtained, major races had only about five Acmeans. Meanwhile, any other race that had at least one Acmean would be considered a high-status race.However, there were already eight Acmeans inside the main hall.“Tell us what happened, Wyot.”Dolph’s voice resounded throughout the area.James stood up and clasped his fist at Dolph and the othe
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
