Right then, a spatial rift appeared.The middle-aged man marched forward and was about to enter the Chaos Battlefield through the spatial rift.Swoosh!Before he could enter, two elders showed up and blocked his way.The middle-aged man was Taran Zach, the famous powerhouse of Emperor Raiah’s era.“Fellow cultivator…”A guardian said, “This arena does not belong to you. You can’t go in. You also shouldn’t come here.”The two were guardians of the Boundless Tablet and the Chaos Tablet respectively. They used to be the subordinates of Emperor Raiah. They were powerful. However, they were weaker than Taran.“Are you trying to stop me?” Taran’s expression became heavy.“Taran, Emperor Raiah left behind this arena. The providences and fortunes inside are useless to you. Why do you want to enter the Chaos Battlefield?” The guardian of the Boundless Arena felt helpless.The guardian of the Chaos Arena said, “That’s right. Why?”“I’m not here for fortunes. I’m here for James,” respo
Several Grand Patriarchs of the ancient Orthodox sensed that Taran killed the guardians upon exiting the mountain.They knew Taran’s reputation. Taran was only weaker than Emperor Raiah. He did not even show up during the invasion of the Extraterrestrial Demons. However, here he was now.Based on many powerhouses’ opinions, Taran came out of the mountain because something attracted him.Somewhere in the Chaos Battlefield, James took out a few clues he obtained previously and looked at them.Nonetheless, the clues he obtained were not complete. From the clues, he could not find out the whereabouts of the Herstellen Art. To know the location of the Herstellen Art, he needed to find complete clues.Swoosh!At this moment, a shadow appeared silently.James and Henrik did not sense any fluctuations of aura. It was only when a middle-aged man appeared before them that they sensed his aura.“Who are you?”James and Henrik spoke at the same time. They could not help but step backward.
Taran was not humble.He was not arrogant, but he really did not take James seriously.“Haha. Taran.”At this moment, a laugh sounded from the void. Following the laugh, the void cracked, and an elder appeared in the area.The elder was the Grand Patriarch of Mount Taba.The elder was old and had a beard. His hair was grey.Although he was old, his aura was powerful.Glancing at the elder, Taran asked casually, “What’s wrong?”“Taran, since you’re out from the mountain, there must be something good in the Chaos Battlefield.” The Grand Patriarch of Mount Taba smiled.“You’re thinking too much.” Dully, Taran said, “I’m only here to challenge the disciple of Emperor Raiah.”Taran was speaking the truth.Nonetheless, the Grand Patriarch of Mount Taba did not believe him.At this time, another figure appeared in the distance.It was the Grand Patriarch of Mount Genesis.The Grand Patriarch of Mount Genesis was watching from a distance. He did not approach Taran and the others.
James was familiar with Curse Magic. Not only was he familiar with it, but he also cultivated it.Based on his understanding, Curse Magic was a signature skill cultivated by an Ancestral God of the Twelfth Universe. The Ancestral God obtained the Curse Magic from the Dark World.James did not expect Curse Magic to be created by Taran.“Taran wants to kill you. Even if you comprehend the Tenfold Realms Transcendent Art, you won’t be his match.” Looking at James, Byron said, “Unless you reach Taran’s cultivation rank, you’re doomed.”When James heard that, his expression became heavy. Massaging his temples, he looked troubled.“Take care,” Byron said before leaving.On the other hand, Teresa had gone to several ancient holy sites. When she learned a few pieces of information, she secretly returned to the Chaos Battlefield.Hiding in the dark, she saw Taran and how he did not kill James.She felt happy.She was worried that Taran would kill James right away. If that happened, the
After the news spread, many powerhouses headed to Mount Stoyan.Mount Stoyan had previously been destroyed, but it was now restored.At the top of Mount Stoyan, there was a wooden house.James sat in front of the house.Henrik said, “Many living beings showed up nearby, but none came here. They probably don’t have clues.”“James.”At this time, a voice sounded.James turned to the direction of the sound.He saw Byron walking over. In a flash, Byron appeared before James.Looking at Byron, James asked, “Do you have any clues?”Byron nodded before saying with a smile, “I was lucky. I killed a foe and obtained an incomplete inscription.”“I see.” James lightly nodded and said, “Let’s wait for other powerhouses with clues to show up.”Byron halted in his tracks.As time passed, more living beings gathered in the area. Nonetheless, they did not have clues about the Herstellen Art.In the blink of an eye, three months passed.Three months later, a living being showed up at the
James had previously obtained several incomplete inscriptions.The inscriptions were clues about the Herstellen Art.From the inscriptions, James learned that there were eight incomplete inscriptions.Hence, if he could gather the eight inscriptions, he would find out the whereabouts of the Herstellen Art.However, he only had three.Byron, Fletcher, and the Sect Leader of the Flower Sect each had one.They had six in total, still short of two.The Chaos Arena opened several epochs ago. James believed that all eight clues had been found. Now, he only needed to wait patiently for the powerhouses with the clues to appear.More living beings gathered in the surroundings.The living beings came from hidden sects. There were several true powerhouses.James and the others waited patiently.In the blink of an eye, three years passed.Three years later, another powerhouse showed up.In the distant void, a golden ladder appeared. The ladder continued expanding. Then, a man dressed
“Is that so?” Becca did not believe James.“A hundred percent.” James was certain.Seeing that James was so sure, Becca did not say anything else, and Fletcher was no longer greedy for information.However, Becca and Fletcher were only holding back for the time being.The Tenfold Realms Transcendent Sutra was on par with the Herstellen Art.Becca and Fletcher planned to obtain the Herstellen Art first before asking James for the method of cultivating the sacred scrolls.A bunch of people were chatting.At the same time, they were waiting for the last living being with an incomplete inscription.They waited for several decades.A few decades later, the last living being with an incomplete inscription appeared.The surprising part was that the living being was someone James was familiar with.“You?” James looked at Xezal.Xezal appeared on Mount Stoyan. She was dressed in a white dress and looked stunning. Glancing at James, she asked, “What’s wrong? Am I not welcome? If so,
Xezal glanced at the living beings present and said, “Let’s not discuss this. Take out all the inscriptions. Let’s put them together and form a complete inscription.”Everyone agreed with Xezal.Everything said now could not be trusted.They decided to devise plans after completing the inscription.At this moment, Henrik was talking telepathically to James.“We can’t trust these living beings. We have to come up with a plan in advance.”James answered, “What should we do then?”“We’ll snatch it.”“Snatch?”James was taken aback.The living beings were all powerhouses. There were two powerhouses in the Chaos Omnia Rank. How could James and Henrik take the inscription forcefully?Henrik said, “Once the inscription is formed, you will take it by force. After taking it, you will use the Blithe Omniscience and run away. As for the powerhouses here, I will block them.”“Can you block them?”“I can try.”…The two discussed secretly.Meanwhile, the other powerhouses were also
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
