Cray had thought about it, and he decided that Zavis was the perfect candidate for the task. With Zavis’ extraordinary powers and skills, he could easily gain the attention of other cultivators. By using that edge, they could get the news about the Orstellen Art out in the ten districts as soon as possible. “Who has the Koloretsua Stone now?” Zavis asked. Upon hearing the question, the villagers turned their eyes to James, who was standing at the back of the crowd, simultaneously. James straightened himself and bowed slightly. He smiled brightly at Zavis. “It’s an honor to meet you, Mr. Zavis. I am James Caden.” Zavis focused his gaze on James. After confirming that James had reached the Quasi Chaos Rank, the man frowned. “He managed to gain possession of the Koloretsua Stone with that level of cultivation rank?!” Cray responded, “You mustn’t take him too lightly, Zavis. He’s achieved many great things in his past life. The man managed to last in a battle against the second
“I think King Marciais will win too.” “The Marciais Path recorded in King Marciaisʼ Divine Martial Scripture was one of the most exceptional signature skills ever created!” “Indeed! King Marciais might have been able to defeat Emperor Raiah if they were to have had the battle at a later time.” … In the arena, Zavis stood with his hands on his back. He seemed relaxed as he said, “You can use and unleash whatever skills you’ve learned, young man. Our saintess has put up a secure formation around the arena. You don’t have to hold back at all.” “I’ll gladly oblige, then.”James activated the Omniscience Path at once and entered the state of the Eleventh Rank. Three circles of halo glowed around James’ body. He had decided to fight solely with the powers of the Omniscience Path to gauge Zavis’ skills and abilities first. His opponent was rumored to be as strong as Emperor Raiah, after all. “Oh! He must have studied the Divine Martial Scripture circulated in the outside world.
The powers of the Thirteenth Rank of Marciais Path was immensely potent. Even though James had unleashed the ten powers through the Tenfold Realms Transcendent Art, he was unable to overpower Zavis. As soon as James had steadied himself, he complained aloud, “Mr. Zavis, you did not keep to your promise. You said that you would adjust your cultivation rank to match mine during the battle!” Zavis let out a chuckle. “I have suppressed my cultivation rank to match yours, and I havenʼt even begun to utilize that part of my powers. The Marciais Path is simply a signature skill that I have created. Technically speaking, it doesnʼt represent my current cultivation rank.” James had nothing to refute Zavisʼ words since what he said was mostly right. “The knowledge of the Tenfold Realms Transcendent Sutra is as impressive as the others have claimed it to be. With just the Quasi Chaos Rank powers, you managed to take my attack of the thirteenth rank of the Marciais Path by channeling those
“Even though King Marciais initiated the thirteenth rank of the Marciais Path, James trapped and injured him.”“Is James really that strong?” The villagers were dumbfounded.“Do you want to continue?” James’ various Supernatural Powers were integrated into the formation, but he only managed to hurt King Marciais. King Marciais’ physical body was terrifying and would eventually break the formation if the fight continued. If that happened, James would be at his wits’ end.“You’re impressive.” King Marciais was disheveled while still trapped inside the formation, yet he burst into laughter.Immediately afterward, he clenched his fists and swung at the formation. The potent force split apart the formation, disintegrating it into inscriptions. The inscriptions reshaped into a formation again in the distance.“That’s Martial Path Power!”“It’s the real Martial Path Power!”“As expected from King Marciais.”The villagers spectating from outside the arena were filled with joy after t
“Hah!” King Marciais chuckled in disbelief at James’ request. Even the legendary Emperor Raiah was only worthy of being his friend.James said smilingly, “I’m just joking. Your cultivation base is unparalleled. How could I ask you to be a follower of mine? However, I’ve heard about the Divine Martial Scripture you mentioned before and am really interested. Can you give me a few pointers?”James had learned about the Divine Martial Scripture from Wyndael.Initially, he thought Yardos’ master was the creator of the Divine Martial Scripture. However, he found out the version they had been cultivating was incomplete. In truth, King Marciais was the creator of the Divine Martial Scripture.The village chief was very satisfied with the battle’s outcome. King Marciais was an extraordinary existence, but he finally struggled against someone while at the same cultivation rank. As a result, it would considerably lessen his arrogance.King Marciais dispersed his Marciais Path and left the ar
Lady Tehila was also the powerhouse who left behind the Koloretsua Stone. James was clueless about her cultivation rank.The village chief said calmly, “If you can’t enter the Sovereign Rank, don’t even think about the Orstellen Art.”“The Sovereign Rank…” James was startled.He thought to himself, ‘Has Lady Tehila already entered the legendary Sovereign Rank?’King Marciais did not continue on the topic. He looked at James thoughtfully, then said, “How about we make a deal, James?”“What kind of deal?”“Give me the one-third of your Herstellen Art, and I’ll teach you the complete Divine Martial Scripture.”“Deal,” James agreed without hesitation.“Alright.” King Marciais beamed with a smile.“Let’s go.” The village chief gently waved his hand.“Come with me, James.” King Marciais looked outside the village. He suddenly remembered something and said, “You’re famous in the Endlos. Don’t reveal your identity while you’re with me, or else how will I establish my authority and sh
King Marciais was close to breaking the seal in his body, but he lacked the opportunity to cultivate in their holy site.After losing to Emperor Raiah, he missed the opportunity and never managed to perfect the Divine Martial Scripture. Back then, if he were the one who entered the holy site, then he would have been the one to leave Te’oma Village and not Emperor Raiah.He had been dispirited about it for a very long time. However, he had already looked past it now.Curious, James asked, “Where do you plan on going?” James wanted to know where King Marciais would go next and how he would establish his authority as well as spread the news of Te’oma Village’s reappearance.Zavis gave it a thought, then replied, “One entrapoch ago, there was a lot of commotion within the Endlos’ Ten Districts. Now, only a few famous powerhouses are left, including Zaden, Thea, Taran, and one unidentified powerhouse. Meanwhile, there are only a handful of cultivators worthy of being my opponents. Let
“Sure,” James agreed without hesitation and immediately sat into a lotus position on the ground.King Marciais also sat down. His Zen emerged and entered James’ soul. After sensing the Endlos Light’s existence within James’ soul, King Marciais immediately began to examine it. The two of them sat in a lotus position opposite each other as time passed by unperceivable.After some time, King Marciais slowly stood up.James followed suit. Upon noticing King Marciais’ furrowed brows, he asked, “How was it?”King Marciais replied, “It’s the first time I’ve come in contact with it. It’s quite profound, and it’s hard for me to grasp its essence within such a short period. After traveling around the Endlos, I’ll return to Te'oma Village to cultivate. After seeing the Endlos Light, I might be able to break into the fifteenth rank of the Marciais Path if I cultivate for a while. Once I succeed, even Emperor Raiah will be no match for me when he returns.”King Marcias was confident in his s
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
