After preparations were completed, they waited for the Extraterrestrial Demons to close in on the universe’s border.Soon, a wave of monsters appeared outside the universe’s border. The monsters with no intelligence began their attacks on the core universe.However, the borders were guarded by massive armies led by powerhouses. Even without the help of James’ formation, the powerhouses could keep the monsters away from the universe. Moreover, the powerhouses were aware of the monster’s weakness and that they were bred by Mothers. They rushed into the black holes in the distance and killed the Mothers responsible for producing the monsters.The battle lasted a very long time. Even though James’ side was strong, it was inevitable for some powerhouses to be injured during the extensive battle. Unfortunately, a few had their spiritual bodies destroyed and disappeared from the Orstellen Realm. Primitive living beings were also killed during the battle.The monster army’s attack grew m
Larix kept sending terrifying powerhouses to the battlefield.Taran, Thea, Wyot, Henrik, Yardos, and the other powerhouses were caught up in intense battles. Meanwhile, the Extraterrestrial Demons seized the opportunity to advance toward the universe’s core region. The planets that had prepared for battle succumbed one after another, and the soldiers stationed to protect them were slaughtered.Even though the battle was not looking optimistic for them, James still did not partake in it. He knew that if Thea and the others died in battle, only their spiritual bodies would be destroyed. He observed the battle and pondered why Lady Tehila created the Orstellen Realm.The universe’s various planets collapsed. Taran, who was already injured, exhausted a lot of his strength to kill the Deceptive King. He noticed the black palace outside the universe and immediately realized the Extraterrestrial Demons’ Great Commander was hiding within it. The trial would be over as long as the Extrater
Larix was satisfied with the progress. To him, his subordinates were disposable resources. He even considered himself a mere pawn that could be sacrificed when needed.All that was left to do was to kill James and take complete control of the district. They would be halfway to their main goal if he could conquer the district.The Alliance Army was also satisfied with the battle’s outcome.Apart from James, the other parties involved were overjoyed.Contrary to his prediction, the Extraterrestrial Demon refrained from showing up even after his party had suffered such a great loss. Moreover, the Alliance Army was another big problem. After he killed the Extraterrestrial Demon, he might also have to deal with them. James could only hope the Orstellen Realm’s trial would end after he eliminated the Extraterrestrial Demon.James sat on the highest point of the spiritual mountain and dispersed the formation around his body. He was the last survivor in the universe.The black palace out
Just glancing at the Demonic Knife was enough to make one hallucinate.Larix appeared in front of James instantly with the Demonic Knife. Before James could even react, the Demonic Knife was already plunging at him.At the last second, James disappeared. The Demonic Knife slashed at his afterimage.James reappeared behind Larix and used the Demonic Compass to attack.Boom!!!The Demonic Compass shattered the surrounding void.However, Larix reacted quickly and avoided being struck by James’ sneak attack.James immediately launched another attack. He summoned the Chaos Sword and cast the Universal Sword Art. The power of heaven and earth merged into a terrifying Sword Energy.The Sword Energy instantly permeated the air.Larix quickly used the Demonic Knife to parry the Sword Energy.Boom!!!The Sword Energy and his Demonic Knife clashed.The void exploded, and countless black holes formed around the area.Two figures flickered through the void riddled with black holes and
Even though Larix had destroyed James’ formation, he had suffered a heavy loss. Every inch of his body was covered in wounds. His flesh had been sliced open, and his bones were exposed. Mysterious inscriptions that belonged to some kind of Supernatural Power he had cultivated flowed through his bones.At that moment, his face was grim and terrifying.Larix said coldly, “Damn it. I won’t forgive you for hurting me.”His aura suddenly improved and reached the Sovereign Rank.James knew he was no match against Larix. He could only drag out the battle and avoid a direct confrontation so that Larix would keep burning his Blood Essence and soul.“Ha,” James snickered and said provocatively, “What can you do?”“Fucker! Die!”Larix’s aura was potent. He launched an attack containing destructive power.However, James avoided the attack with Blithe Omniscience and quickly left the universe.As soon as he appeared in a different universe, a terrifying power shot in his direction. Countle
James had nothing to worry about since the Orstellen Realm’s primitive living beings had already died in battle. Moreover, they were within a secret realm.The powerhouses outside the Orstellen Realm laughed as they watched the battle unfold.“James will be the winner.”“The Extraterrestrial Demons’ Great Commander looks so frustrated.”“Yeah. He has all the strength he needs, but James isn’t giving him a chance. If he continues exhausting his energy, James is definitely going to win.”The powerhouses happily commented on the battle.However, the powerhouses of the Alliance Army had grim expressions. It was an outcome they wanted to prevent so badly. Their goal was to have James and Larix engage in a fierce battle so they would both suffer losses. Even if James were to win, they were confident in killing him after he had consumed most of his strength.Meanwhile, Larix had escaped to the Dark World.However, James was not worried and calmly chased after him with the Bllithe Omni
After James understood the Endos Plane’s strength and the region beyond the Endlos, he spared Larix’s life just as he had promised. Since they were within a projection, it would not impact Larix’s fate in the outside world.“You can go,” James said calmly.“You’re letting me go?” Larix looked at him in disbelief.“Or do you perhaps want to die?” James stared at him.“N-No.” Larix immediately stood up and disappeared in a flash.Ultimately, James did not kill Larix. He still could not figure out why Lady Tehila had left behind the Orstellen Realm. He had defeated the Extraterrestrial Demons’ Great Commander, so he should have already passed the trial.King Marciais watched puzzledly. He looked at Cray and inquired, “Is this the Orstellen Realm’s trial?”Cray shook his head and said, “I’m not sure either. Lady Tehila didn’t leave much information. She only told us when to open the Orstellen Realm. As for how to complete the trial, I’m as clueless as you.”James returned to the sh
When James got out of the Orstellen Realm, the sect leader of the Orstellen Sect could not contain his excitement. He said, “It’s the power of Lady Tehila. She activated the Koloretsua Stone.”Even King Marciais sensed that James’ body was unusual.He could sense a powerful energy in James’ body as if it were invincible.“James.”King Marciais walked over and appeared before James. With a smile, he asked, “What did Lady Tehila say to you?”“Nothing much.”James did not mention a word about the things Lady Tehila left behind.Looking at Cray, he asked, “I have completed the test. Can I cultivate the Orstellen Art now?”“Of course.”Smiling, Cray said, “Lady Tehila activated the power of the Koloretsua Stone, proving that she acknowledges you. From now on, you’re the sect leader of the Orstellen Sect.”As he spoke, he knelt on one knee.“Greetings, Sir James.”“Greetings, Sir James.”King Marciais and the Orstellen Sect disciples present knelt on one knee.“Alright. Get up.
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
