Each of the Endlosʼ Nine Districts encompassed a shockingly vast area as tens of thousands of universes could be found in these districts. In addition, each district had its own Heavenly Path, called the District Heavenly Path. The universes located within the region of a certain district must obey the respective laws of their district’s Heavenly Path. ‘That’s pretty similar to how it is back in the Chaos.’ James thought. Then, James came across an interesting piece of information in the final part of the book. “The missing district.” “Rumor has it that there were actually ten districts in the Endlos a long long time ago. However, due to some unknown reasons, one of the districts, the Chaos District, had concealed itself and disappeared from the Endlos. Until today, no one has been able to find or locate the Chaos District.” Once he had finished reading the book, James learned quite a lot about the origins and history of the Endlos. However, he did not expect to discover that
James was able to make those deductions after having observed his surroundings and the state of the universe. “It’s because we want to survive, obviously.” Leif decided to be forthcoming. James was already allowed to roam their universe freely. Leif knew the man could always find out what he was about to share by asking the other inhabitants in their universe. “Have you ever heard of the Aeternus District?” Leif asked. James nodded. He had just read about the Endlosʼ Nine Districts from the book earlier. The Aeternus District was listed as one of these nine districts. Leif explained, “The Aeternus District is one of the nine districts that comprise Endlos. Although it has the lowest rank among the other districts, they’re still a force to be reckoned with. Unfortunately, a civil war broke out there, and their district leader was murdered. In order to survive, we rescued the saintess and fled from our homes. We’ve been on the run ever since.” “By saintess, do you mean Ms. Sa
James and Lief continued chatting for quite some time. Eventually, they decided to head back to the saintessʼ spiritual mountains and left the restaurant together. … Inside a quiet manor located among the spiritual mountains belonging to the saintess, Saachi was training inside a room. She was glowing in a pure, white light from head to toe. The colors of her eyes took on a mysterious, dreamy shade. It was as if one could see the enchanting view of the galaxies in within them. All of a sudden, a burst of Sword Energy seemed to materialize before Saachiʼs eyes, and it abruptly stopped Saachi from using her powers. The magnificent colors faded from Saachiʼs eyes almost instantaneously. Blood oozed from the corners of her eyes as her irises appeared to turn dull and murky. As Saachi coughed up some blood, she lost her balance and fell onto the floor. On the other hand, Leif had been waiting patiently outside since he sensed that Saachi was in the middle of her training session
‘I have no idea what’s recorded inside this book. Moreover, if I were to go down this road, what would become of me once I fully form the Damon Eyes?’ Saachi had many questions and concerns at the back of her head. In the end, she still could not bring herself to open the book and read it. … On the other hand, James had moved into a new room on another spiritual mountain. He took out a book with a clean and dark red cover. It was the Blood Mantra that Thea had given him. As he carefully flipped to the first page of the book, James could see lines of strange and mysterious inscriptions on that page. Just then, those inscriptions appeared to move and float in the air. Soon enough, words in a foreign script began to form before James’ eyes. James was the only person who could see those words since he was holding the book. If someone were to walk in on James now, they would only see that James’ eyes were glowing with an eerie, blood-red light at that moment. Even though it was
“Not a chance.” Saachi gave him a sidelong glance. The Acme Herbs were extremely rare and precious. Moreover, Saachi had spent a huge effort transferring most of these herbs in the herb garden from the Aeternus District before they had fled from there. They could not afford to give away the herbs carelessly, especially to a relatively unknown man. “Fine. Forget what I just said.” James thought, ‘I donʼt really need these high-grade herbs yet since I havenʼt begun developing my new bloodline power. Also, it’ll take quite some time for me to train and improve the new bloodline power in the beginning. I wonʼt need herbs of the Acme grade for that stage.’As James walked away in a carefree manner, Saachi stood there and stared at the manʼs receding figure. A few seconds later, Leif materialized beside her. Saachi instructed, “Keep a close watch on James. He’s eyeing the herbs in this garden. Also, reinforce the formation around the herb garden.” “Understood.” Leif nodded and l
Leif seemed extremely confused. ‘I don’t know his exact cultivation rank, but Ms. Saachi has commented about how James has impressive strength due to his extraordinary physical condition. Normally, it also suggests that the cultivator has achieved a superb cultivation rank. Yet, that guy is using these low-grade herbs for his cultivation?’ Leif pondered. James’ brows twitched the instant he noticed Leif. However, he quickly controlled his expression and said matter-of-factly, “I bet you havenʼt seen anything like this. This is a secret method that I learned from my sect leader. It’s the perfect method to train and refine a cultivatorʼs body.” “Oh… Is that right?” Leif raised his brows. “You have the body of a Caelum Acmean. Can a herbal concoction with this level of energy really be of use to you?” “As I’ve said, this is a secret method.” James waved his hand dismissively. “If you’re not here for any urgent business, you can leave now. Knowledge of this secret method is only
After gathering a decent amount of herbs, James used them to enhance his bloodline power again.As James’ bloodline power grew stronger, he found it harder to improve. He refined plenty of herbs, but the power had yet to reach the Divine Rank.James continued venturing into desolate places in search of Empyrean herbs.Thirty million years passed by in a flash. After James had opened a new vein system, he searched for herbs and improved his bloodline power. Through his continuous efforts, his bloodline power reached the Emperor Rank after 30 million years.Meanwhile, Saachi had been trying to restore her Dobro Eyes. To achieve her goal, she consumed countless Caelum Acme Herbs. However, her Dobro Eyes did not heal.She stood in front of her spiritual mountains’ cliff discouragedly, and standing behind her was a rather handsome man.“What has James been up to in the past thirty million years?” asked Saachi.Leif replied, “Nothing much. He’s been wandering the different planets i
For the past thirty million years, James had desired the herbs inside the herb garden. However, his new vein system was still frail, so he did not need high-quality herbs yet. Even if he were to use them, they would go to waste.He secretly planned to raise his bloodline power, then find an opportunity to run off with all of the herbs from the herb garden.To his surprise, Saachi was offering the herbs to him.Saachi nodded lightly and said, “You can take a few, not all of them. I need some for myself, so I can’t give you everything. I would’ve allowed you to have everything if this were in the past.”In the past, Saachi was the Aeternus District’s Saintess. The herbs in the herb garden were of value to her.Now that she had wandered to this place, she wanted to use her resources sparingly. While the two conversed, a universe appeared in the Endlos Void. The patrolling soldiers immediately noticed the unfamiliar universe and sounded the alarm.Suddenly, James and Saachi heard
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
