The Chaos Sacred Art was too profound. The Chaos Script was unrivaled in its depth and profoundness, and James could not understand anything. He looked at the closed book before him, and the mysterious voice that appeared previously rang inside his head. He closed his eyes and concentrated on comprehending them. The voice seemed to come from the depths of the Chaos. Yet, it also seemed to have come from the depths of his soul. After contemplating for a whole day, James still could not understand what the voice was.“Perhaps this is the voice of the Chaos that contains the supreme Chaos Path,” He murmured.Since he could not understand anything, he put those thoughts aside.He stored the Chaos Sacred Art away and looked in the direction where the Grand Patriarch was in a closed-door meditation. He was wondering if he should consult the Grand Patriarch.With that idea in mind, he immediately stood up and headed in the Grand Patriarch’s direction. Soon, he arrived outside the Formatio
Hirah did not respond to James’ question. Instead, he continued, “I don’t know why or how the Dooms’ crisis would arise. However, I have foreseen that Great Elder Youri will be involved in this.”“The Great Elder?”James furrowed his eyebrows.He was wondering what Hirah was trying to say. Did he say these words because he already suspected him? Or could he have pierced through Heaven’s Secret and learned that Youri would be involved?“That’s impossible, Grand Patriarch. The Great Elder is very loyal to the Doom Race. Although there have been many internal power struggles inside our race, everyone unites in the face of external aggression.”Hirah took a deep breath and said, “You don’t understand. Not anyone in the Doom Race can cultivate the supreme Chaos Sacred Art. Since antiquity, there have only been a few that could cultivate the Chaos Sacred Art. The Great Elder has great potential and is extremely ambitious. However, he couldn’t cultivate the Chaos Sacred Art. That’s why h
The Human Race was a race blessed by the Chaos Heavenly Path. As the Human Race was the leader of all races, every race would transform into a human the moment they reached a certain rank. Apart from the perfection and beauty of the Human Race, one could also be blessed by the Heavenly Path’s providence by adopting a human form. Back then, the Human Race’s providence was simply too overwhelming. In a short period of time, they had spread their roots throughout the Greater Realms. Sensing the imminent threat, Hirah organized a secret meeting among the other races to dissolve the Human Race’s providence. Among them were the Ten Great Races. After the meeting, the Greater Realms launched an all-out assault on the Primordial Realm where the Human Race resided. After completely annihilating the powerful individuals of the Human Race, they suppressed the providence of mankind. However, the providence of mankind was not depleted. Now, in fact, the tides had begun to turn. Faced with suc
“Yes.”Hirah gazed into the distance, seemingly reminiscing about the past when the Space Race dominated the Greater Realms. After some contemplation, he said, “In that age, the Patriarch of the Space Race had reached the pinnacle of the Caelum Acme Rank. They say that he was close to breaking through the Caelum Acme Rank and reaching the legendary Chaos Rank.”“The Chaos Rank?”James froze. He had asked Leilani about it before. Although Leilani was the princess of the Angel Race, the highest rank she knew of was the Caelum Acme Rank. Yet, a new Chaos Rank had emerged now.“Indeed, the Chaos Rank. It is a legendary, almost mythical rank.”Hirah sighed.Even though he was at the peak of the Terra Acme Rank and at the pinnacle of the Greater Realms, he would be overwhelmed by the Chaos Rank. It was a legendary rank spoken about by extremely powerful individuals. The legend of the Chaos Rank would elude one as long as one had not reached the Caelum Acme Rank. He only knew because he
Hirah told James many secrets. As such, James now had a clearer understanding of the history of the Greater Realms. He learned that the Blithe Omniscience, the Chaos Sacred Art, the Primal Mantra, and many others were born at another age. He also learned that the Caelum Acme Rank was indeed the pinnacle of cultivation. Although there was the legendary Chaos Rank, legends were just legends, after all. Even those who created the secret arts such as the Blithe Omniscience, the Chaos Sacred Art, and the Primral Mantra could not break through the rank. In the Greater Realms, as long as one could reach the Caelum Acme Rank, one would be considered a powerful individual. If a race had a figure at the Permanence Acme Rank, it would become a powerful race. If a race had someone at the Caelum Acme Rank, that race would surely dominate everything.“By the way, I have seen the Chaos Sacred Art, but I couldn’t understand anything.”James was here to consult Hirah about the Chaos Sacred Art. He lo
When he returned, Yemima was standing in front of the main hall.“Mhm.” James walked toward her and said, “I read the Chaos Sacred Art and couldn’t understand anything. That’s why I wanted to consult the Grand Patriarch.”“Is that so? What did he say?” Yemima was interested.James shook his head slightly and said, “The Chaos Sacred Art can’t be taught orally, so he won’t be able to offer me his guidance. I can only comprehend everything by myself.”“No need to rush things. Take things slowly.” Yemima consoled him.“Mhm.” James nodded.He was not in a hurry. Now that he had his hands on the Chaos Sacred Art, he was not in a hurry to cultivate. His current priority was to secure his position in the Dooms, ensure his dominance, and eventually become the Patriarch.“Let’s go have a walk in Doom City,” Yemima suggested.James looked at her puzzledly. According to Wyot’s memories, Yemima had never gone out with Wyot. Ever since their marriage, they had made a vow—Wyot was not allowed
Doom City was a core city of the Doom Race. It was close to Mount Chaos. Though there was time left until the gathering, many powerful individuals had already arrived here to wait for the gathering’s commencement. Among them were well-known fighters and distinguished prodigies. Some were unknown in the Greater Realms and wanted to spread their fame far and wide. The individuals on the Chaos Gold Ranking were of particular interest to the crowd. Number one on the list was Deshawn Yansh, a mysterious person whose appearance was unknown. No one knew what race he was, and he had not emerged in the Greater Realms for a very long time now. Those who had seen his face were now corpses. The Dooms occupy the second and third spot on the ranking, and rumors say that they had crossed into the Acme Rank. As for the spots further back, they have been occupied by the other races.The reward of this gathering was the Chaos Sacred Lotus. The Chaos Sacred Lotus was especially alluring to the Quasi A
As James and Yemima arrived at the place, the living beings there immediately made way for them.“That’s Wyot Dalibor.”“I heard he was imprisoned for some time and only recently returned here. However, he only remained on Mount Doom. Rumors say he has already crossed into the Quasi Acme Rank.”“Huh… Interesting…”“The gathering is gonna be fun.”Many whispered among themselves.James and Yemima entered the tavern and headed straight toward the ninth floor.Soon, they arrived on the ninth floor.The ninth floor was vast.There were only two people there—Deshawn Yansh sitting by the window and a woman sitting in the corner.The woman was dressed in a black dress, and she was wearing a black veil that covered her face. The veil seemed to be imbued with a mysterious formation, for even James could not pierce through the veil. However, as his gaze met the woman’s, he sensed a familiar sensation. A figure surfaced in his mind.“Is that you, Thea?”James glanced at the woman and
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
