Yvan was truly afraid.He was worried that James would actually attack him, so he began to deny any involvement in the matter.He did not want to leave the arena so early.Emperor Raiah left behind the Boundless Arena. Yvan had heard about some legends concerning Emperor Raiah, and the latter was definitely a peerless powerhouse.Yvan wanted to stay on the platform longer. He wanted to see if he could obtain fortunes and enter the Quasi Chaos Rank.He had been in the Caelum Boundless Rank for a long time but could not enter the Quasi Chaos Rank.The gazes of all living beings landed on Yvan.They could sense that Yvan was powerful. An average living being in the Caelum Boundless Rank could not compare to Yvan. However, Yvan feared James. This proved how terrifying James was.“Haha.”James laughed.“If you knew this day would come, why would you do that in the past? I’ll give you a chance. Come at me.”James’ voice was loud.When Yvan heard that, his expression became heavy.
With James’ current ability, he could defeat everyone present.Even if he could not, he had Wynton.If he allied with Wynton, who on the platform could defeat them?Xuri noticed that James was looking at her, so she thought he was waiting for her to kill Yvan before making a decision.She glanced at Yvan.“Teacher.”Yvan asked, “What do you mean?”“I’m sorry.”After saying that, Xuri raised her palm. With her slender fingers, she hit Yvan’s head.When she attacked, several mysterious inscriptions emerged from her palm.Yvan did not dodge Xuri’s attack.He only watched her.He also did not resist.On his head, a crack appeared. The crack spread to his whole body from his head. Instantly, his body was covered in blood.Cracks appeared on his face. Blood seethed out endlessly. It looked eerie.“Teacher, you saved my life. Without you, I would have died long ago. Now that you have taken back my life, I no longer owe you. I know that you want to kill me and ally with James. I
It had been hundreds of years since the arena battle began.Aside from James, no other living being made a move.The guardian, who had been hiding in the dark, could no longer watch the battle stay peaceful. Immediately, he took out a manual.The manual recorded the inheritance of Wynne.Wynne was a powerhouse in the era of Emperor Raiah. He was the leader of the Sword Path.He had many titles, including the Sword Demon and Sword Emperor.“The inheritance of Wynne?”Several powerhouses of the hidden sects could no longer hold back.The same went for other living beings.No one knew about Emperor Raiah, but they knew about Wynne. They also knew about Sword Mound.It was said that Wynne left his inheritance and fortunes in Sword Mound. Sword Mound appeared many times in the past, and many powerhouses entered Sword Mound to find fortunes.Nevertheless, Sword Mound was sealed. Living beings could not enter.Following the appearance of Wynne’s fortune, several living beings coul
At a certain spot in the battle arena, a cold shout rang out, and countless substantial Sword Energy materialized, all aimed at James and Wynton. Immediately after, an overwhelming wave surged toward them, launching an attack.In this critical moment, they materialized weapons in their hands simultaneously and continued to strike, fending off the attacks from thousands of Sword Energies.Whoosh!In the distance of the battle arena, a figure shot up into the air. It was a man dressed in a white robe, adorned with a ‘sword’ character that emanated a terrifying power.The man appeared young, with no aura emanating from his body. However, the white robe he wore was an unparalleled treasure, carrying an imposing presence.“He’s a disciple of the Saber Sect.”“Saber Sect, the lineage of Wynne Dalganus.”“Tsk tsk, I didn’t expect Byron to make a move so soon. I thought he would hold out until the end.”“The robe he’s wearing is an extraordinary treasure passed down by the Saber Sect
“Are you looking for trouble?” Those words caused even the heavens and the earth to tremble at their utterance.The scene was truly terrifying. However, James responded with a faint smile. “Bring it on,” he said.In an instant, the aura emanating from Byron reached its peak. Despite James unleashing the Omniscience Path and the power of the Thousand Paths Holy Body, his aura was not much different compared to Byron’s.Suddenly, Byron appeared in front of James, raising his hand to deliver a punch. Materialized fists shot out, transforming into a myriad of boxing shadows that enveloped James. The region where James stood collapsed instantly. Many living beings in the arena retreated to safer positions.Just when they thought James had taken a hit and were curious to see if he could withstand Byron’s attack, James’ body appeared mysteriously behind Byron, and he launched a full-force attack.In the face of a powerhouse from a hidden sect like Byron, James spared no effort.By the t
Each Sword Energy contained an incredibly formidable power. In every district of the outside world, countless living beings who witnessed this projection shuddered in fear.The strength of this hidden sect powerhouse was truly horrifying, especially for the Quasi Boundless Rank powerhouses. Their faces contorted in fear as they confronted this terrifying onslaught of swordsmanship, and it seemed likely that they would be defeated instantly.In the battle arena, countless living beings sensed the impending danger. At this critical moment, a protective formation appeared in a specific area of the arena. The powerhouses immediately realized that this formation could ward off all harm, and in that instant, they swiftly entered into it.The Sword Energy filled the heavens and the earth, and James immediately employed the Blithe Omniscience to flee.Just as James was trying to depart, the Sword Energy pursued him once more, and numerous Sword Energies infiltrated his body, leaving him ri
James unleashed the Blossoming, forming the Sacred Blossom. Although he had only reached the Caelum Boundless Rank, coupled with his inherent strength, the Sacred Blossom he created could rival the attacks of Chaos Rank powerhouses. Everyone was awestruck by James’ Sacred Blossom. However, Byron shattered it with only a Sword Formation. Both of them were sent flying by the shockwaves of their battle, but miraculously, neither of them sustained any injuries.Byron’s transformation into a Sword Body made him nearly invincible in the physical realm. Similarly, James was surrounded by the power of the Greater Paths, which formed a protective barrier around his body.In a place in the Human Universe’s Chaos District, a man in white robes watched James’ Blossoming with pride on his face. He boasted to the woman beside him, “This is the signature skill I created back then. Unfortunately, I don’t have a Thousand Paths Holy Body, so I couldn’t fully unleash its potential. I never imagined t
This signature skill represented the convergence of the Greater Paths into one swordsmanship, converting the power of the Greater Paths into Sword Path Energy.Whoosh!The Sword Energy instantly traversed through the void and appeared in front of Byron. However, Byron stood still, allowing the Sword Energy to attack him. The dazzling Sword Energy vanished mysteriously upon reaching him.Seeing this, many living beings in the battle arena were completely shocked, and some even exclaimed in surprise.“The power of the Sword Body.”“Byron cultivated a secret art of the sect.”“Legend has it that after Byron perfected the Sword Body, he spent countless entrapochs refining it and created an invincible signature skill called the Sacred Heart Art, which is immune to all Sword Paths attacks.”“In the past, Byron challenged a Chaos Rank Sword Path powerhouse. The powerhouse used all his techniques, but none could harm Byron.”In the battle arena, some living beings from hidden sects beg
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
