The old man was the Doom Race’s Grand Patriarch, a powerhouse that had lived for countless years. In the past, he was also the one that proposed to attack the Human Race.The Grand Patriarch’s name was Hirah Dalibor.Hirah was incredibly powerful. During the Primordial Realm Era, he had already reached the peak of the Terra Acme Rank and was only one step away from reaching the Caelum Acme Rank. Back then, he was already one of the Greater Realms’ top ten powerhouses.At that moment, Hirah was performing an extrapolation.The Extrapolation Formation in front of him rotated rapidly.Boom!!!Suddenly, the Extrapolation Formation in front of him shattered.He suffered a backlash and spat out a mouthful of blood.The woman that had gone to summon James had returned. Seeing Hirah injured, she helped him up and asked, “Are you alright, Sir?”Hirah sat in a lotus position and wiped the blood on his lips.“I’m fine.”The woman asked, “What are you doing, Sir?”Hirah replied solemnl
James was startled by his words. He hurriedly inquired, “What do you mean, Sir?”Hirah shook his head and said, “I’m not sure about the specifics either. Maybe it’s karma. In the past, I proposed to destroy the Human Race. However, the Human Race is blessed by the Chaos Heavenly Path. I forcibly went against the Chaos Heavenly Path and destroyed them, preventing them from rising above the other races. However, their fate was predetermined, and I only postponed their rise.”Hirah sighed helplessly. He could not figure out the catastrophe that would befall the Doom Race, but he had a rough guess.Back when the Human Race was growing rapidly, he intervened and prevented their rise.Unfortunately, his actions were in vain, as he could only delay the Human Race’s rise.Hirah looked at James and said, “Despite that, nothing is absolute. Although I can’t figure out how to prevent our family from doom, I have a rough guess that you’re the key to resolving it.”James stood up from the roc
The entire Doom Race was doubting James’ identity. However, the Doom Race’s Grand Patriarch, Hirah, had handed him the Doom Race’s Chaos Sacred Art.James believed it was not because Hirah considered him the Doom Race’s hope. Instead, he had other motives.However, James could not figure out what it was yet.Now that James was in the Doom Race’s territory, he knew he had to be extra careful not to expose himself. Otherwise, his previous efforts would all be in vain.James returned to Mount Doom.Yemima was waiting in the room. When James returned, she stood up and asked, “How did it go? What did the Grand Patriarch need to see you for?”James sat down and said smilingly, “He summoned me to the holy site and gave me the Chaos Sacred Art.”“What?” Yemima exclaimed.“The Chaos Sacred Art? He gave it to you?”“Yeap.” James took out the golden book and casually threw it at Yemima.Yemima caught it and returned it to James, saying, “This is our race’s supreme treasure. Only the r
Yemima gently shook her head. She was only a collateral member in the Doom Race. Although she was married to Wyot, she was not qualified to know these core matters.She looked at James and suggested, “How about asking your father?”James shook his head lightly and said, “I’m currently a highly suspicious person. If I look for him now, it’ll only cause him more trouble. I’ll wait until my identity is proven first.”Yemima comforted him, saying, “That sounds good. There are only a few more decades. You should rest at ease and not stress about it.”James sighed and said, “Elder Youri’s influence is too great, and his faction’s power has already surpassed Father’s faction. I’m worried he’s plotting something to chase me out of the Doom Race.”Yemima reassured him, “Don’t worry. Although Elder Youri’s faction is strong, there are many other factions with powerhouses that can still stand against him. He wouldn’t dare to do anything too bold with them still around.”“Alright.” James nod
A few decades flew by in the blink of an eye.James did not wander around during this period but stayed on Mount Doom.Meanwhile, Yemima had been running back and forth, relaying new information to James.However, most of the news she brought back was useless.Soon, it was time for the trial of James’ identity.Many powerhouses of the Doom Race gathered in the main peak’s hall, with Dolph sitting in the highest seat of the council.Meanwhile, Yemima was tidying up James’ hair on Mount Doom.“I’m really worried.”James sat on a chair while Yemima combed his hair from behind. She sighed helplessly and said, “In the past hundred years, Elder Youri hasn’t really done anything. However, it makes me even more anxious because of how quiet it has been. I’m afraid he’s plotting something against you.”Jame replied smilingly, “Don’t worry. It’ll be fine. Many elders will be gathering today. Even if Elder Youri is plotting something, he won’t dare to do anything with everyone present.”
He was locked in a dark cell, and some mysterious figures dressed in black robes appeared. He was repeatedly beaten with whips and was interrogated about the Chaos Sacred Art.This fake scenario was forcibly transplanted into his memories.It never really happened and only existed in the imaginary world that James had constructed.Immediately afterward, a member of the Heaven-Eradicating Sect appeared in the dungeon and chatted with mysterious figures. Their conversation was straightforward and was mainly related to the Chaos Sacred Art.Ultimately, they began fighting because of the Chaos Sacred Art. During their fights, Wyot seized the opportunity to escape.The memories stopped playing. James looked at Dolph and the elders. Then, he said earnestly, “I showed you my memories of me being captured and escaping. It was indeed the Heaven-Eradicating Sect that captured me. However, I was imprisoned in the Soul Race’s secret base. The Soul Race’s members tortured and interrogated
Youri had a grim expression.No matter who stood before the Chaos Mirror, their Soul Genesis would be completely revealed. Yet, the Soul Genesis reflected in the mirror belonged to Wyot, and there was no mistake.Despite the results, Youri still felt the Wyot in front of them was suspicious.“As far as I know, there is a magical herb called the Soulblue. It has the ability to copy another creature’s soul aura.”James was startled upon hearing Youri mention the Soulblue. However, he maintained a calm composure. He looked at Youri and said, “Even if what you said is true and a Soulblue can truly copy another creature’s aura, what about this?”After speaking, James summoned a ball of energy in his palm.He had urged his Chaos Power. Moreover, it was the complete form of Chaos Power.“I have a Thousand Paths Holy Body and have cultivated the various Paths of heaven and earth, allowing me to have pure Chaos Power.“Enlighten me, Elder Youri. Even though the Soulblue can copy one’s s
Leaving that remark, Dolph simply turned to leave. The Sect Elders in the main hall looked at one another and did not utter a single word.James, on the other hand, walked toward Youri and clasped his fists, saying, “Great Elder, I do not know what I have done wrong to deserve your discrimination. If you simply wish to cancel my right to become the next Patriarch, I won’t bat an eyelid as long as the other Sect Elders agree to it.”Saying that, he turned to leave as well.Some Sect Elders who did not see eye to eye with Youri stepped forward immediately,“Great Elder, this is a power struggle of our race. Since we’re choosing a Patriarch, we should do so fair and square. Don’t you dare play your tricks behind the scenes.”“Great Elder, you headed to the Cloud Race and demanded they hand over their token. Are you planning to release Soren Plamen?”“Are you still determined to get your hands on the Blithe Omniscience?”“You have cultivated the Human Race’s Omniscience Path and rea
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
