After coming out from seclusion, Wynona sent a letter of challenge to James.Even though she had entered the Quasi Chaos Rank, James accepted the challenge.James and Wynona used to be in the same cultivation rank. Although Wynona had now reached the Quasi Chaos Rank, he had been cultivating as long as she had.In fact, since he cultivated in the time formation, he actually cultivated longer than Wynona did.Besides, he had the Tenfold Realms Transcendent Sutra. He believed that his cultivation speed was quicker than Wynona’s.Cultivation rank was the standard to measure strength, but it was not the only standard.Thus, James accepted the challenge.He believed he had a chance against Wynona, who was in the Quasi Chaos Rank.“James accepted the challenge?”“Where is his confidence coming from? How dare he fight against Wynona? Has he entered the Quasi Chaos Rank too after ten thousand epochs?”“It’ll be an exciting fight. Let’s go and occupy a seat.”…None of the disciples
“James hasn’t shown himself for ten thousand epochs, right?”“That’s right. Ever since he took over Zula’s Karma, he went to meditate in seclusion. Now that the Tempris House no longer has Karma Power, he should be able to resolve the Karma Power, right?”…Outside the platform, many elders and teachers were discussing the battle that was happening soon.Just then, a group of people walked over from afar.They were the representatives of the Tempris House.The person in the lead was James. He was followed by Waleria, Zula, Saachi, Wynton, and other disciples of the Tempris House.When James appeared, he became the center of everyone’s attention.James’ body flashed and disappeared. Then, he showed up on the platform.Looking at the beautiful yet aloof Wynona in the center of the platform, James said, “I, the head of the Tempris House, have come to take on the challenge.”“The head of the house?”Wynona frowned.She knew that James was a disciple of the Tempris House, but sh
Outside the platform, Lothar looked at the head of the houses and elders beside him and said, “This battle isn’t as simple as it looks. Wynona has entered the Quasi Chaos Rank. Even though she’s weaker than other powerhouses in the Quasi Chaos Rank, she can still destroy the formation here. To prevent the aftermath of their battle from affecting the five houses, when the battle begins, let’s strengthen the power of the formation.”“Yes, Sir Lothar.”Many powerhouses spoke up at the same time.Meanwhile, at the place where the disciples of the Tempris House were gathered, Wynton stared at James on the platform before glancing at Waleria. He asked, “Ms. Waleria, what are the chances of James winning?”After pondering for a moment, Waleria said, “Twenty percent.”She wanted to say James had no chance of winning.The gap between the Quasi Chaos Rank and Terra Boundless Rank was too big.Nonetheless, James was a strange person. Saying that James had a twenty percent chance of winning
“James lost so easily?”“I thought this was an evenly matched battle. I didn’t expect James to be so weak.”“Good job, Wynona.”Outside the platform, everyone was cheering for Wynona.On the platform, James got out of the pit in the ground slowly. He was a mess. Looking at Wynona, whose expression remained untouched, he smiled. “How interesting.”Upon seeing James emerging alive, Wynona was surprised.Even though she did not use all her strength, her cultivation rank was higher than James’, and yet James managed to withstand her attack.Under Wynona’s gaze, the power of the Greater Paths emerged from James’ body.James’ Thousand Paths Holy Body awakened. His body had the power of the Greater Paths. With the protection of the Thousand Paths Holy Body, he smiled and said, “Come at me again.”“As you wish.”Then, a shadow appeared before James. The shadow’s finger headed toward James’ body.A strange inscription emerged from Wynona’s fingertip. The inscription sealed the void i
In an instant, James’ aura grew stronger.He no longer hid his power and exerted all his strength.He had high attainments in the Terra Boundless Rank.He was powerful. His aura even affected the formation of the platform. If the powerhouses outside were not strengthening the formation, the formation would have been broken by his aura.His aura was now stronger than Wynona’s.At that instant, he looked to be an invincible god standing in the void.“Uh…”Outside the platform, many powerhouses were so shocked that they stood up.James’ aura even surprised Waleria.“What a terrifying aura.”“He’s only in the Terra Acme Rank, yet he can exude such a frightening aura.”Many powerhouses were stunned by James’ aura.Wynona, who was on the platform, was also slightly taken aback.Just as she was stuck in a daze, James appeared before her. Then, a palm landed on her.Before Wynona could react, she was hit by a palm. Her body immediately flew away and hit the formation at the edge
At that instant, a longsword materialized in her hand.“The Caelandor Sword.”“Faced with both the Quasi Boundless Rank and the Caelandor Sword, James is sure to face defeat this time.”...Wynona unleashed the Caelandor Sword.In the past, she had been unable to fully tap into the true power of Caelandor. However, now that she had attained the Quasi Boundless Rank, she could unleash the full potential of the Caelandor Sword.Holding Caelandor, she pointed the blade at James. Invisible yet tangible Sword Energy surged forth, pressing down on James.However, as this force of swordsmanship neared James, it was dispersed, disappearing completely.“What’s happening?” This sight left the powerhouses outside the battle arena astounded.Even Waleria was caught off guard, her attention locked onto James who was within the arena. She whispered to herself, “What sort of Supernatural Power is this?”One for All.James had grasped the Supernatural Signature Skills contained within “The
Wynton was watching the battle.After sensing Wynona’s current strength, he weighed it in his heart.In his previous battle with James, he had exerted all his power but refrained from utilizing the Supernatural Signature Skills.He held the belief that he could overcome Wynona in her current state.In the battle arena, the fierce battle raged on.Sword Energy crisscrossed and continually impacted the surrounding formation.Despite the efforts of many powerhouses to stabilize the formation from the outside, it was on the verge of collapsing.“They’re so strong, I really underestimated both James and Wynona.”Lothar said, “If this continues, the formation will inevitably be broken sooner or later, and it will spell disaster for this universe.”He immediately yelled out, “This place can no longer sustain your battle. If you truly wish to determine a winner, go to the Endlos Void and continue there. If you persist in fighting here, not only the Five Houses of the Verde Academy but
Wynona spoke coldly.In that moment, she had begun to burn her own Blood Essence. The Caelandor Sword, which had been knocked away, flew back to her. She grasped the sword and walked toward James step by step, each step causing the void beneath her feet to shatter.After burning her own Blood Essence, her strength increased, and she charged at James once more.James unleashed the Chaos’ Nine Voices, but it could not harm Wynona. All of his attacks were completely blocked by her.“This girl.”In the distant void, Lothar watched this scene with helplessness and said, “This girl’s determination runs deep. Without such determination, how could she have broken through to the Quasi Boundless Rank? However, she will be crippled after this battle. Even if she defeats James, she will fall from her current rank and maybe never return to the Quasi Boundless Rank again.”“Swish!”In the Endlos Void, a dazzling Sword Energy burst forth.James sensed the dangerous aura. With a thought, he un
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
