Since James and Waleria had both agreed, Wynton and Saachi went along with their decision.The group left the Tempris Academy and entered the Endlos Void.Waleria waved her hand, and a flying battleship appeared. After everyone boarded the flying battleship, it began quickly traveling through the Endlos Void.The group gathered inside a room on the battleship. A map was laid out on the table as they had another discussion.James pointed to a location on the map and said, “Based on the Verde Academy’s intel, one of the Malvada Sect’s bases is situated in this universe. The person in charge of this base is their Deputy Sect Leader.”Waleria interjected, saying, “The Deputy Sect Leader’s name is Laduni Hagar. He’s currently at the Caelum Boundless Rank. He cultivates a very evil art, which absorbs the Blood Essence of other living beings to enhance his strength. He’s not going to be an easy opponent. Many of the Verde Academy’s powerhouses had suffered under his hands. Unfortunatel
James got up from the ground awkwardly and thought to himself, ‘I was just joking, but she attacked me. What a bad temper she has.’“Ahem…” He coughed a few times and said, “Let’s put these trivial matters aside and focus on our real goal. We should start investigating the Malvada Sect.”James summoned a few inscriptions and said, “Take one each. We’ll be able to communicate through these inscriptions by pouring energy into them. If anyone finds themself in trouble, use it to quickly contact the rest of us.”Although the Verde Academy had compiled a detailed report about the Malvada Sect, most of the information was outdated. Nobody knew about the Malvada Sect’s current situation. The group had to find out the sect’s recent activities to obliterate them.“Alright.”“Then it’s settled. I’ll stay in touch.”Saachi and Wynton spoke one after another.“The three of you can handle the investigations. I’ll be waiting for the good news in the city.”Waleria nonchalantly walked into th
“Despicable.” James gasped after witnessing the tragedy.Then, he quickly followed after the Malvada Sect’s disciples. The group had already moved on to another weak planet. Using the same method, they wiped out the entire planet and its inhabitants.James continued following them, waiting for an opportunity.The group consecutively destroyed over a dozen planets and headed back to their base.James pondered whether to take the opportunity to capture one of the disciples, impersonate him, and sneak into the Malvada Sect’s base to investigate. After deciding to act, James quickly cast the Blithe Omniscience and appeared before the Malvada Sect’s disciples. He unleashed his Path Powers, confined the surrounding void, and stopped the flow of time. His actions caused the group to float motionlessly in mid-air like statues.James glanced at the group. Since he had been following them for a while, he naturally figured out which was the group’s leader. However, he did not intend to imp
Latran did not pursue the topic any further. He turned around and began walking toward a spiritual mountain.James closely followed behind them.Atop the spiritual mountain was a black palace that emitted a black aura. The aura gathered in the sky and shrouded the area, giving the place an eerie vibe.Latran led James into the vast hall.In the front of the hall was a massive seat formed by countless skulls.“Sir.” Latran immediately knelt to the ground.James quickly followed suit.“Hmm?” An apathetic voice resounded in the hall.Immediately afterward, a mass of black mist landed on the highest seat and materialized into an old man who looked to be in his fifties.While kneeling on the ground, James glanced at the old man that had appeared.He wore a gray robe and had a rather ordinary appearance. However, the old man had a frightening scar that stretched from his ear to the corner of his mouth, causing his lips to look slightly crooked.James was slightly puzzled by his ap
As soon as James arrived at the spiritual mountain that Waleria had rented, he summoned Saachi and Wynton.The two went around acquiring information, but none of it was of much use.James shook his head lightly after hearing their gathered information and said, “These are useless information.”Waleria looked at James condescendingly and said, “Then let’s hear what information you’ve gathered.”James took out some documents and handed them over, saying, “Here’s everything I’ve learned recently.”The group took the documents and reviewed them.After reading the documents, Waleria asked surprisedly, “How did you find out so much in such little time? You even know how many guards and powerhouses are in their base.”James smiled and boasted, “I infiltrated their base and became an elder. It was a piece of cake to acquire this information.”Waleria smiled and praised him, “Good job! Now that we’ve got clear information about their internal structure and confirmed that Laduni is indee
”One day? If it’s so easy, why don’t you do it?” Waleria’s voice rang in James’ mind.Since everyone had gotten an inscription from James, they could easily communicate by pouring their energy into it.Nobody else was capable of intercepting their communication or sensing it.James explained, “An elder has given me a mission, so I need you to hasten the process.”“That’s none of my business. It’ll take me three thousand years to complete the formation even with a time formation.”After Waleria finished speaking, she cut off communication with James.James frowned and began to ponder.Ultimately, he had no choice but to lead a group of the Malvada Sect’s disciples out of the universe, kill them, and secretly sneak back to the Yazergh Universe.After formulating a plan, James summoned a thousand of the Malvada Sect’s disciples. Then, he met up with Latran.“Sir, I’m about to leave with a thousand disciples to a more remote universe. I’ll do my best to bring as much Blood Essence
Despite not participating in the battle against the Chaos District, Waleria was well-informed about the Chaos’ Nine Voices since the Theos Sect was eager to investigate it. So, James was worried about revealing the Chaos’ Nine Voices to her.Waleria replied angrily, “What do you mean I can’t control it? There’s no weapon I can’t wield.”James quickly followed up with flattery to calm her down. “You’re right. I believe there isn’t any weapon you can’t wield. What I mean to say is that you can kill Laduni effortlessly, even without my sword. After all, he’s only at the Caelum Boundless Rank. Meanwhile, you’re at the Quasi Chaos Rank.”“I-I’ll be more confident if I have your sword.” Waleria dropped her arrogant demeanor.Saachi also persuaded him, saying, “Just give it to her, James. After all, she’s the main force of our group, and we need her to hold back or even kill Laduni Hagar.”She supported Waleria regarding this matter in order to increase their mission’s success rate.Jam
Laduni was the Malvada Sect’s Deputy Leader and held significant authority.The Verde Academy has been constantly suppressing the Malvada Sect. Naturally, they paid careful attention to the Verde Academy’s affairs. Thus, they knew Waleria, the Grand Sect Elder of the Theos Sect, had become an elder in the Tempris House. Laduni immediately thought of fleeing after seeing Waleria outside their mountain gate.After realizing the identity of his opponent, he quickly disappeared without any hesitation. The next moment, he appeared at the universe’s border. However, Waleria had already set up a formation, and he found himself trapped. He urged his strength and struck the formation.Boom!!!His attack caused a massive explosion, and countless cracks spread throughout the void of the universe’s border. Despite being a powerhouse, he could not destroy Waleria’s formation.“Go on. If you want to escape, you should try harder.” Waleria’s voice came from behind him.Laduni’s face darkened, a
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
