James took the opportunity to attack Xylus.Xylus’ strength was currently at the Chaos Omnia Rank. James knew that even with the Defying Heavens Art and the Seven Path Techniques, he was weaker than Xylus.Swoosh!!!The 108 Infinity Steles appeared in the sky.James split them apart and reformed into the Boundless Pagoda.The Boundless Pagoda instantly evolved into its seventh form.Xylus instantly sensed the impending danger.Before he could react, he was already trapped within the Boundless Pagoda.He tried to break free but was unable to counter the power of the Boundless Pagoda’s seventh form. His efforts to escape were futile.Suddenly, seven different powers emerged inside the Boundless Pagoda. The powers attacked Xylus, forcing him into defense. However, his defensive means were completely useless against the Boundless Pagoda’s powers. In just a short moment, he was covered in injuries.“No!!!” Xylus was terrified after he sensed that his vitality was slowly seeping
Sedris was relieved. He felt fortunate that Waleria had come to tell him about Teresa’s scheme and that he decided to help James. Otherwise, he would die today.James dispersed the formation he used to kill two powerhouses at the Chaos Rank. After Lucius’ death, his storage treasure was left behind in the formation.There were countless treasures contained within his storage treasure.However, James was not interested in them. He only wanted the Hazeaf District’s sacred scroll.Soon, James found the Hazeaf District’s sacred scroll within the storage treasure.Finally, he had obtained eight of the sacred scrolls. Out of the ten sacred scrolls, he was short of two.James put away the sacred scroll and turned to Wyot in the distance.Swoosh!His body flashed in front of Wyot. Then, he summoned the Chaos Sword, pressed it against Wyot’s neck, and asked, “Where’s Teresa?”Wyot’s expression remained unchanged even with the Chaos Sword at his neck. He looked at James and replied calm
Henrik was amazed by James’ strength.At that moment, Waleria and Sedris also approached them.James glanced at Sedris and asked, “You’re the Theos District’s Leader, right? Have you ever exchanged sacred scrolls with the other district leaders?”Sedris nodded and said, “I did.”He had read the other nine sacred scrolls except the one belonging to the Chaos District. However, reading it was one thing, whereas successfully comprehending and cultivating it was another.James stretched his hand and said, “Pass me the sacred scrolls you’ve read.”Sedris did not dare to disobey. He quickly transformed his memories into inscriptions and gave them to James.James used his Zen to analyze them, cross-checking them with the sacred scrolls he had already mastered. After ensuring the contents matched, he put the inscriptions away.He had finally obtained ten of the sacred scrolls. All that was left was to find the time to comprehend the remaining three sacred scrolls. Then, he would have T
Teresa, who had left early, had been secretly watching the battle. She was surprised that James had become so powerful and exceeded her expectations.However, James growing stronger was part of her plan. She had worked very hard to realize every step of it.Teresa hid her aura, and even James could not detect her. She left the Chaos Arena and appeared in an ancient place in one of the districts.She arrived outside a mountain gate and looked at the formation ahead of her. She approached and called out, “It’s Xezal. I’m here to see you, sir!”Her voice resounded throughout the area.In the deepest part of the spiritual mountain, a middle-aged man sitting in a lotus position heard her voice and opened his eyes.He had been sitting in the same position for countless years, and a layer of dust covered his body. With a thought, the dust on his body disappeared, and he immediately changed into a new robe.The man waved his hand, and Xezal was instantly teleported in front of him.Xez
“From what I know, a few Extraterrestrial Demons are being suppressed by the Chaos Tablet. After they are released, you can kill them. Then, you’ll become the cultivator with the highest prestige after Emperor Raiah and eventually the Endlos Lord.The middle-aged man replied calmly, “I’m not interested.”“I know you’re not interested in becoming the Endlos Lord. But don’t you want to prove you’re stronger than Emperor Raiah?”The middle-aged man looked at Xezal and asked calmly, “Little girl, did you come to me just to inform me that Emperor Raiah’s successor has appeared so that I can kill him?”Xezal said embarassedly, “To be honest, James harbors great hatred toward me. He killed my father and has ambitions to become the next Endlos Lord. Fortunately, I hid the Endlos Heart that Emperor Raiah had left behind. Otherwise, he would’ve already become the new Endlos Lord. Even if you continue staying in seclusion, he’ll come for your life to avoid you becoming a potential threat to h
Although Taran had lost to Emperor Raiah in the past, he was still exceptionally strong.During Emperor Raiah’s era, there were many powerhouses, including the Sword Demon, Rune Arts Grandmaster, the Emperor of Tribulation, the powerhouses guarding the Boundless Road, and those who died in the battle against the Extraterrestrial Demons.Even though there were many peerless powerhouses, they were not comparable to Taran. Emperor Raiah was the only cultivator capable of suppressing him back then. However, Emperor Raiah was only slightly above Taran and could not kill him.Taran was not interested in Emperor Raiah’s cultivation achievement and had seen through Teresa’s plan of using him to kill James, open the Chaos Tablet, and release the Extraterrestrial Demons.“You should leave,” Taran waved his hand and said, “I don’t want to interfere with these affairs. Life and death are up to fate. You shouldn’t insist on changing it. You'll become corrupted if you’re too persistent in wantin
Xezal’s voice echoed throughout the area. Then, a magical crystal manifested in her hands. At that moment, she was blessed by the Ten District’s Heavenly Path and looked incredibly mighty.A golden light shot over from the distance and formed into a staircase.Xezal ascended the stairs, slowly approaching the spiritual mountain.Soon, she arrived atop a spiritual mountain and saw an elderly man sitting on the cliff.The elderly man had a long beard and was wearing a gray robe. Xezal was unable to sense his aura, and he seemed nonexistent.Xezal looked at the elderly man curiously. She had never seen Taran and Mount Genesis’ Grand Patriarch before. In fact, she had only heard about them from her father and read about them in ancient books. “What’s the matter, young lady?” The elderly man opened his eyes and looked at Xezal.Xezal knelt on the ground and said, “I’m the current Endlos Lord. It’s an honor to meet you, sir.”The elderly man waved his hand, and a force lifted Xezal
Xezal aimed to lure out Mount Genesis’ Grand Patriarch. Naturally, she knew he was a peerless powerhouse capable of verifying many things with his Zen in a short moment. Therefore, her words were not complete lies.The Sovereign Rank was indeed a myth that existed. Within the ancient books that Emperor Raiah had left behind, he hinted there was a possibility of a higher authority above the Extraterrestrial Demon’s Great Commander and that he might be an existence that had surpassed the Chaos Rank. It was also true the Extraterrestrial Demon’s Second Commander was sealed under the Chaos Tablet. However, Emperor Raiah’s whereabouts were unknown. Xezal lied about him leaving the Endlos to enter the Sovereign Rank, as well as the Extraterrestrial Demon’s Second Commander possessing the method to enter the Sovereign Rank.Mount Genesis’ Grand Patriarch seemed to be wavering and was enticed after hearing about a method to enter the Sovereign Rank.“I’ll leave it to you to decide, sir. I
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
