Despite his formidable cultivation base, Wyot got lost in the Dark World. He could not find his way back, no matter how hard he tried or what methods he employed. Panic began to set in as he continued to choose different routes that only caused him to sink deeper into the abyss.He sat on a rock in the Dark World, his handsome face etched with perplexity. He felt utterly adrift.“Wyot Dalibor.”Suddenly, a voice echoed through the silence, calling his name. Wyot trembled and stood up, his body quivering.“Who… who’s there?” His voice quivered.Regardless of whether it was an enemy or a friend calling him, it was far better than remaining alone in the Dark World.Swish!A faint light landed, coalescing into a man.“James...” The moment Wyot recognized James, he became so overwhelmed with emotion that he nearly cried. He seized James’ hand and said, “Quick, take me out of this place.”The Dark World was eerily silent and possessed a mysterious power that could erode both the bod
Wyot remained silent in response to James’ answer. In his philosophy, this was a world of survival of the fittest, where the weak were destined to be dominated by the strong.“I must stop Teresa’s plan, even if it inconveniences you,” James said.Wyot’s cultivation base had already been sealed by James, rendering him powerless to prevent anything. Even if it was not sealed, he still would not be able to stop James.James then utilized the Soul Search Art to enter the deepest recesses of Wyot’s soul, forcibly extracting his memories. Upon learning Wyot’s memories, he found that Wyot had indeed told the truth. His knowledge about Teresa’s plan was limited.Slowly, James’ appearance transformed into Wyot’s. He had impersonated Wyot before and was intimately familiar with his soul aura. Now, even Wyot’s closest relatives would not be able to discern the difference.Upon witnessing this, Wyot’s face showed pain. Though the forced soul-searching had brought him intense agony, it was not
The woman was a true beauty, with an excellent figure and an exceptional aura. She was none other than Teresa.“You’re back,” Teresa said. After appearing, she sat down on a chair at the side of the main hall, crossing her legs and revealing her long, alabaster legs.“The Chaos Arena was destroyed,” James, who was pretending to be Wyot, said nonchalantly. “Fortunately, I escaped quickly, or else I would have died there.”Teresa glanced at Wyot and said coldly, “Your survival from James has indeed exceeded my expectations.”“I almost died by his hand. At the critical moment, he showed mercy,” James said with a hint of helplessness and bitterness on his face. “I wanted to kill him all along, but now he’s too powerful. No matter how hard I try, I can’t catch up to his strength. This time, I won’t think about seeking revenge. I’ll just stay with the Dooms and take each day as it comes.”He showed no desire for pursuit anymore.Teresa frowned and scolded him, saying, “You’re pathetic.
James was genuinely surprised that Zaden’s integration into the Chaos Heavenly Path was part of a scheme.Zaden’s cultivation required harnessing the Heavenly Path Power, and he was concerned about interference. This surely was not a conventional signature skill. It leaned more towards the dark and twisted path. Otherwise, there would not be such concerns. Perhaps his techniques were obtained from the Extraterrestrial Demons.They had to be stopped.“What do you plan to do next?” James asked.Teresa smiled faintly and replied, “The Endlos Heart is the greatest cultivation achievement left by Emperor Raiah. With it, one can become the Endlos Lord, controlling the Heavenly Path of the Ten Districts and even wielding the Heavenly Path Power for oneself. The plan is simple. We will host a gathering in the Chaos District, inviting powerhouses from the Ten Districts to converge. The one who emerges victorious in this gathering will obtain the Endlos Heart.”Hearing this, James asked wit
Wael said, “The allure of the Endlos Heart is too great. Even if we were to inform the entire world, no one may believe us. Those who knew the truth have mostly perished under Taran’s hand. The remaining few are all injured, and they are now in seclusion for recovery, unable to attend to these matters.”In the main hall, many powerhouses expressed their opinions and views. Yet, despite the discussions, no consensus was reached. This was because the Extraterrestrial Demon by Teresa’s side were formidable, to the point where not even Henrik’s Grand Purge Formation could suppress them.Moreover, there were many other Extraterrestrial Armies behind the Extraterrestrial Demons’ Commanders. Hence, most strategies were futile in the face of absolute power.Meanwhile, James was also contemplating. He believed that the only one who could stop all of this was Taran. However, he had no idea where Taran was.Taran’s strength was overwhelming, to the point where James could not even extrapolate
When Yemima appeared, James looked at her with a complicated expression. She was a woman he had let down, but back then, he truly had no other choice. It was all for the Human Race.“I’m back,” James said.Yemima looked at him and said, “I could have left the Doos, but I chose to stay at Mount Doom all this time to wait for your return.” Her eyes welled up with mist, and glistening tears rolled down her cheeks. “I’m a tainted woman. I may have professed love for you with my words, but I gave my body to James.”Her voice choked with emotion. James looked at her, genuinely unsure of what to say. Moreover, he was now impersonating Wyot, making it even more challenging to find the right words.“Where’s Carson? I haven’t seen him,” James asked.Yemima replied, “He couldn’t accept that James was his father and left the Dooms a long time ago. I have no idea where he is now.”“I have matters to attend to and must leave Mount Doom.” James spoke these words and vanished from the spot. For
The Emperor of Tribulation said, “That is the invaluable Tribulation Liquid. Even just a single drop can greatly improve a person’s physical condition. I hope it’ll be of use to you.” James drew a big breath and bowed to the man. “I can’t thank you enough for your help.” “Go on, then.” The Emperor of Tribulation gestured to the sea. Then, he teleported and vanished from James’ sight. James turned his gaze to the violet sea and teleported toward it. As he levitated in mid-air and looked down at the body of water, James was amazed by the tremendous energy he could sense from the violet sea. “What an incredible amount of energy!” James muttered to himself. ‘At first, I was thinking of learning the contents of the three remaining sacred scrolls and training with the knowledge of the Tenfold Realms Transcendent Sutra to enter the Chaos Rank. ‘Now that I have the Tribulation Liquid, I can continue with my training for the Omniscience Path. Perhaps I could achieve the Eleventh Ran
James remained unmoving as he stared at the formation above his head for a brief moment. Then, he conjured a heap of black crystals before him. He had collected these black crystals after visiting the Supreme Illusions in the past. James did not have much use for these crystals all this time, so he decided to enhance the potency of his formation by extracting the black crystalsʼ energies. After that, James began learning the knowledge of the sacred scrolls whilst continuing to perfect his formation. … In the blink of an eye, a long time had passed inside Jamesʼ time formation. Suddenly, Jamesʼ eyes flew open. A faint, strange light flashed across his eyes for a few seconds. The light dimmed as he slowly blinked a few times. Then, James got up and did some stretches to loosen his muscles. Once he was done stretching himself, James turned his eyes to the violet sea around him. With his powers, James managed to collect all of the Tribulation Liquid and stored it inside his sto
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
