Her life force gradually seeped away. “Why did you do that, Yvan?” Qreeola stared at the man in utter disbelief. “Anyone who betrays master must die,” Yvan said in a monotonous voice. In just a matter of seconds, Qreeola could feel herself losing consciousness and her vision grew dark. She could not even discern the expression on Yvanʼs face at that point. All of a sudden, her body shattered into pieces. Her soul was crushed along with it. In a hidden spot located on the other side of the spiritual mountain, a lady, who seemed to be meditating, sat on the ground with her legs crossed. Suddenly, the lady opened her eyes and coughed up mouthfuls of blood. She fell onto the ground as she had lost a great amount of power. The lady was the real Qreeola. The person Yvan had just killed in the hall was merely her clone. ‘I never thought the man I cared about the most would do something like that to me. I can’t remain here any longer. If Yvan finds out that I’m not dead, he’ll su
After a brief pause, James asked, “Waleria, a large-scale battle broke out in the past when numerous cultivators sensed the presence of the Chaos District. Do you happen to have any information regarding the incident?” Waleria pondered for a bit. “Actually, our cultivators detected the presence of the Chaos District twice in the past. A fierce battle took place the first time the Chaos District was detected. However, the second battle wasnʼt as intense when the same thing happened again.” “What happened during the first battle?” James knew that the battle between people here and those from the Chaos District had happened twice so far. ‘The second battle most likely happened during the rise of the Space Race, eventually leading to their downfall as well. ‘The second Sky Burial happened at a relatively smaller scale since the number of unrivaled powerhouses that existed during that period was much lower.’ James thought. Waleria shook her head. “I donʼt know much about the fir
The stronger cultivators avoided engaging in battle and quickly approached the dazzling sword. However, they were instantly obliterated into nothingness by the intense Sword Energy. In just a short moment, more than a dozen powerhouses were killed. After witnessing their deaths, the others did not dare to rashly approach the sword.Meanwhile, James also stared at the bright sword in the sky in awe. He felt a familiar aura coming from it. It was the power of the Nine Voices of Chaos.Surprised, James thought to himself, ‘Could this be the Chaos Master’s sword?’The Ancestral Blood Master’s phantom’s voice suddenly rang in James’ mind, saying, “That’s the Chaos Sword, the sword of the Chaos Master in the past.”James immediately acquired confirmation of the sword’s origin.His gaze fixated on the Chaos Sword.The Chaos Sword emitted a powerful aura, and even James was interested in it. However, he did not dare to act recklessly, as the sword had already killed many powerhouses.Wa
The Death Ephialtes was a legendary skill. Its origin was unknown, but the condition for cultivating it was incredibly harsh. One would have to die to cultivate it.Thus, nobody has dared to try cultivating it from ancient times to the present. Yhala already predicted her death, so she made arrangements in advance.“The Death Ephialtes requires a huge amount of energy inside one’s body. Yhala merged this universe into the Yhala Realm before her death to prepare for this day.“Many creatures have entered the Yhala Realm. After their deaths, they will become potent energy and be absorbed by Yhala’s body. After her body absorbs enough energy, she will come back to life and enter the Chaos Rank.“Your task is to kill the cultivators that have entered the Yhala Realm.”Yvan issued an order to the powerhouses gathered in the hall.A huge number of powerhouses had entered the Yhala Realm.The Yhala Realm’s exit had been closed, and powerful formations had sealed it. Before Yhala’s
James turned around abruptly and thrust his palm forward. A terrifying palm force burst out and struck the void.A black-clothed being quickly emerged to block James’ attack. The confrontation caused a terrifying shock wave to spread to the surroundings.Both James and the black-clothed being were pushed away by the force.The black-clothed man’s wrinkled face was full of shock. He stood in the distance and said, “I wasn’t expecting you to have improved so much in just a short period.”James finally could see his opponent’s face. It was the Daemonium Sect’s Elder, Xylon, a powerhouse at the late stage of the Caelum Acme Rank. James no longer feared Caelum Acmeans. Although he was only at the Permanence Acme Rank, he had entered the Boundless Rank while at the Quasi Acme Rank. Moreover, he had reached remarkably high attainments in the Boundless Rank, and his bloodline power was extremely strong.Assuming his opponent was a late-stage Caelum Acmean that had not entered the Boundl
The Daemonium Sect was already on the move. However, James and Waleria had not figured out their ultimate goal.James decided to ask Saachi about it. As an elder of the Daemonium Sect, she would definitely be informed about their plan.The two quickly left the area.James scanned the Yhala Realm for Saachi’s aura.Soon, he detected her with some of the Daemonium Sect’s disciples besieging a Caelum Acmean.The Caelum Acmean was forced to retreat. Unfortunately, he was killed in less than ten days.However, he took down many of the Daemonium Sect’s disciples.After the Caelum Acmean was killed, the Daemonium Sect’s disciples gathered to heal their injuries. Saachi stood aside with her sword stuck into the ground. She folded her hands and coldly looked into the distance.At that moment, two figures appeared without a sign. Saachi immediately drew her sword and pointed it at James and Waleria.As soon as Saachi drew her weapon from the ground, the Daemonium Sect’s disciples, who w
Waeria explained, “Countless years ago, the Chaos District’s Leader ruled over the Endlos’ Ten Districts. Back then, he had many powerhouses under him. Among them, one wanted to create an invincible Supernatural Power. Unfortunately, he kept experimenting but never succeeded before the Chaos District’s Leader was attacked, and the Chaos District was in turmoil.“Eventually, he created the Death Ephialtes but never perfected it. Never would I have thought that Yhala got her hands on the Death Ephialtes and tried to cultivate it.”James’ brows furrowed tighter. He rubbed his forehead and said, “The Daemonium Sect is a huge problem. What should we do now? Should we listen to Saachi and go into hiding?”After briefly contemplating it, James came up with an idea. He looked at Waleria and said, “Didn’t you say you’d be able to restore your strength to its peak and enter the Chaos Rank in about tens of millions of years? How about you enter a space I’ve created and set up a time formation
Qreeola immediately revealed her identity.Her face was incredibly pale. Just as she was about to speak, she coughed up a mouthful of blood and fell to the ground.James and Waleria took a few steps backward, keeping a safe distance from Qreeola.They could not verify who she was yet, so they wanted to be more careful.Qreeola got up from the ground with difficulty and sat in a lotus position. She urged her energy to heal and stabilize her injuries. After a while, she felt better.She raised her head toward James and Waleria.“Yvan is Yhala’s eldest disciple and also her favorite. I had a disagreement with him, which led to him attacking me. Fortunately, I sent a clone to meet with him, or I would’ve died.”Qreeola explained her situation, and her face gradually darkened.“I did everything he asked of me, but he only has Yhala in his heart. He ruthlessly tried to take my life, so my loyalty to him is gone.”After hearing her story, James turned to Waleria and asked, “What do y
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
