The disparity between the black crystals found inside the Mothers and the one that Mekaisto had was wide.The two had a similar aura, but their powers were vastly different. James asked calmly, “What kind of crystal is that?”“You won’t be able to find out,” Mekaisto replied coldly.Mekaisto consumed the black crystal. His aura and strength immediately improved by leaps and bounds. At the same time, the other six clones also grew stronger.“After consuming the crystal and absorbing its powers, my strength will be restored to half of what it was at my peak. How will you stand a chance against me?” Mekaisto’s voice resounded.James sensed Mekaisto’s terrifying aura. Under the crushing aura, James found it hard to breathe. His body’s strength seemed to have been sealed away, and his blood flow slowed.Mekaisto stepped forward and appeared in front of James with a flash. Then, he swung his fist at James.Mekaisto’s attack instantly injured James. His body began to fall apart, but
James had created the formation with everything he had learned. It was terrifyingly potent. Even with seven Mekaistos attacking together, the formation remained unscathed.The formation’s power injured the seven Mekaistos.On the other hand, James had merged with the figure within the formation. His body gradually became substantial and became his new body.The new body was no different from his original body and was still a Thousand Paths Holy Body. The only difference was that his physical body was much more robust.“How is he so unpredictable?” Mekaisto’s face darkened.He had used a secret art to summon multiple clones, which had the same strength as him. However, it was not enough to take down James. Even worse, James had destroyed one of his clones.Mekaisto looked at the magical formation. After sensing the transformation within the formation, he had a solemn look. He understood the chances of him winning were very slim. He thought to himself, ‘It’s a pity I couldn’t resto
“For you to have pushed me to this point, you’re amazing, James. Even if you die, your name will be remembered.”Mekaisto’s voice resounded. Shortly after, a strange power emerged from his body. It seemed like he had sacrificed an important part of himself.A potent power shrouded him, and his strength was immediately restored. His injured body also became more robust. At that moment, he had regained his peak strength.During Emperor Raiah’s era, the Extraterrestrial Demons’ Second Commander, Mekaisto, was stronger than the Third Commander.James had no idea how strong Mekaisto was at his peak. He only knew that Wynne sacrificed himself to injure the Extraterrestrial Demons’ Third Commander, Livie.Zaden and Xezal continued to watch from the dark. At that moment, countless broken inscriptions gathered to form a translucent figure.A smile formed on Zaden’s face. He said, “Mekaisto has finally used the Demonic Pill their Great Commander gave him.”Curious, Xezal asked, “What’s
Meanwhile, the Human Universe had already left the Chaos District. Many powerhouses gathered in the Heavenly Court’s main hall and looked toward the Chaos District. Everyone was paying attention to the battle happening in the Chaos District.A tall and beautiful woman stood in the front. After sensing Mekaisto’s transformation, a few soul sigils emerged from her bones.The woman was none other than Livie.After her skeleton was found, Zeno refined it and obliterated her soul sigil. However, a few soul sigils were buried inside her bones. At that moment, the soul sigils emerged, and a fragmented soul appeared to occupy the body. The fragmented soul was the original owner of the body. Thus, the body did not resist.Livie’s body now had two souls. One was the complete soul given by James. The other was a fragmented soul of the Extraterrestrial Demons’ Third Commander. The two souls fit perfectly in the body.Although the body had two souls, Livie’s soul was dominant, not the Extrat
Even if Mekaisto could kill James, his power would be exhausted. By then, he could not face Zaden and had to reincarnate and hide.He did not want that to happen.“Work with me. I can give you everything you need.”“Never.”“Alright, then. I have nothing else to say to you.”Having failed to negotiate with James, Mekaisto wasted no time. Immediately, his body split into multiple clones.Seven clones appeared. Including his main self, there were eight of him.He demonstrated his unique secret art again.All eight of Mekaisto’s bodies had equal strength.This secret art required a large amount of energy. If one clone were killed, Mekaisto’s power would weaken.Nonetheless, he activated the Demonic Pill contained in the deepest part of his soul. His ability was restored to its extreme. His power, which was exhausted during the battle, was completely restored.Swoosh!Instantly, Mekaisto and his seven clones surrounded James.The same treasure, the Demonic Compass, appeared in
The formation was too strong.Even though three of Mekaisto’s main selves were trapped in there, they were all instantly covered in wounds.Apart from the three trapped clones, the rest of the clones surrounded James and attacked him. All kinds of Supernatural Signature Skills were used.James had never come across these Supernatural Signature Skills before. For a moment, he could not handle them.He summoned several kinds of Supernatural Signature Skills, but his counterattacks failed, and he kept suffering injuries.Even with the protection of the Greater Paths and the Nine Districts Heavenly Path, he was still taking a lot of damage.James and Mekaisto used all their strongest signature skills from the beginning of the battle. They exhausted all their tactics just to get the first kill.Just then, one of Mekaisto’s clones silently appeared behind James. Its Demonic Compass rotated continuously and charged toward James.With a thought, James appeared behind the Boundless Pago
James took a deep breath.Currently, he needed to kill one of Mekaisto’s clones to weaken his ability.Swoosh!A formation appeared out of nowhere and engulfed one of Mekaisto’s clones.Once the clone was trapped, James disappeared and appeared above the formation.The powers of the ten paths emerged in his body.Like a dragon, the powers of the ten paths shot up to the sky.The powers of the ten paths filled the sky and crossed one another. As they crossed one another, they turned into mysterious inscriptions.In an instant, the inscriptions formed a terrifying formation.“The Tenfold Realms Transcendent Art.”In the early stage of the battle, James had used Emperor Raiah’s most frightening signature skill, the Tenfold Realms Transcendent Art.The Tenfold Realms Transcendent Art was a formation and a world.It was formed by ten types of supreme powers and ten kinds of supreme inscriptions.One of Mekaisto’s clones was trapped in the formation, while the Tenfold Realms Tra
In despair, James thought of the inscription Zella left behind.At once, he summoned the inscription left behind by Zella and entered the inscription with his Zen.A shadow appeared in the deepest part of his mind.The shadow slowly materialized and became a lady in a white dress. The lady had long and lush hair. She appeared dignified and smart.“James,” she called out.“You opening the inscription I gave you means you’ve reached a point where you have no other option but to live and die in the Chaos District. That or the entire Endlos is being wiped out.”“Zella, what should I do now?” Anxiously, James asked.A part of Zella’s soul was hidden in the inscription.By opening the inscription, one could communicate with Zella.Zella shook her head and said, “James, the timing of this battle isn’t right. It’s a stalemate. It’s the Chaos District, Endlos, and your Calamity.“Your only way out is to give up.”“Give up?” James was stunned.“Yeah.”Zella nodded and said, “If you
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
