Instead of the Genesis Path Scripture, James had only used inscriptions from the Endlos Plane.Even without the Elemental Formation, James was confident in defeating his opponents with ordinary inscriptions despite only being at the Sovereign Third Rank.James’ formation easily neutralized the opponent’s attacks. Then, his past and future form appeared in front of Sigel.Sigel reacted quickly and evaded the attacks. Immediately afterward, James’ past and future forms were struck and destroyed by Sword Energy. However, they reshaped within the formation.The formation suddenly disintegrated into inscriptions, flew toward Sigen, and reformed.Sigen found himself trapped inside the formation. James’ past and future forms attacked again. Unfortunately, Sigen survived the attacks with his exceptional physical strength.Meanwhile, the other three opponents attacked the formation.James, who had transformed into the formation, struggled to maintain his form after resisting their contin
James killed the five powerhouses at the Petit Celestial Rank who had joined forces with ease.The battle’s outcome was unexpected.After James eliminated the five of them, his remaining opponents were at the Sovereign Rank. Although his opponents had exceptional existence in some weaker planes, they were nothing impressive compared to the other participants in the Dieux Academy’s assessment.“H-Hold it! We’ll eliminate ourselves!”When the remaining members of the alliance saw James’ eyes resting on them, they immediately took the initiative to leave the Arena World. Seeing them leave, James dispersed the Tressencia Completare and Elemental Formation. Shortly after, his comrades joined him.“Was that the complete Tressencia Completare Art?” Zavis looked at James admiringly. He had known that James cultivated the Tressencia Completare Art a long time ago. However, he had never seen it in full force. He was surprised the Supernatural Power was so terrifying.“Can you teach me the
The participants occupying the Arena World’s ten cities were from influential backgrounds. Although they joined the assessment, the Dieux Adademy’s elders remained respectful toward them. After all, they were powerful and had incredibly high status.An elder of the Dieux Academy muttered, “I wonder who Forty-nine will target first.”Xhemal gently stroked his beard and said smilingly, “Although Forty-nine has mastered an impressive Supernatural Power, he still has to rely on his comrades to enhance his strength. Almost everyone in the Arena World is already aware of this. If they can eliminate James’ comrades, his combat strength would be reduced significantly.”The Dieux Academy’s powerhouses easily spotted James’ weakness, and so did the participants in the Arena World. The powerhouses occupying the Arena World’s ten cities knew that without the complete Elemental Formation, James’ strength would weaken considerably, and he would not be able to fight them.James and his comrades
Xhemal was suspicious that James was very informed about the Feimsurge Art. A human from a third-level plane couldn't possibly know so much.Meanwhile, James briefly went over the Feimsurge Art’s origin. He explained to his comrades that it was a Supernatural Power passed down for countless eras in the Dieux Academy. Only those with great talent and comprehension abilities were qualified to cultivate it. Despite that, nobody ever succeeded.The Feimsurge Art was one of the reasons the Dieux Academy could attract so many powerhouses to join them.James did not further elaborate on the details. He dispersed the formation and scanned the ten cities.“Which one should we attack first,” asked Zavis.“It doesn’t matter,” James replied calmly.Those who managed to occupy a city in the Arena World were extraordinary existences. Their strength was almost the same, and neither could do anything to the other.James strode forward and soon arrived on the ancient road outside one of the citi
When James and his comrades appeared outside the city, a terrifying aura suddenly emerged from the city. Before they could react, a few figures flashed through around them. The attacker was speedy, leaving no chance for Zavis and the others to escape.James’ comrades were killed in the blink of an eye. Their bodies were destroyed, and their souls were teleported out of the Arena World. On the ancient street, James was left standing by himself.Soon, the flickering figures fused into a man wearing a golden robe. He looked like an ordinary human in his early twenties.“Hehe,” the man chuckled and said, “Now that you’re without comrades and the formation, you can only fight with the strength of the Sovereign Third Rank. How are you going to stand a chance against me?”James looked at the man and asked, “What’s your name, and where are you from?”“I’m Ladon Yushar from the Supremusseum.”The Central Plane’s strongest forces included the Elysium Hall, Supremusseum, Valiant Allianc
James had gained a lot of attention, and many people were wondering how he would fight an opponent at the Petit Celestial Rank without his comrades.A cultivator’s rank was not the only criterion to measure strength. In fact, powerhouses at the same rank would have varied strength. Those with talent and greater comprehension abilities would master Supernatural Powers much more easily. It was only natural for those with better backgrounds to be much stronger than other cultivators at the same rank.Ladon hovered in the sky with his hands behind him, staring at James contemptuously. James, on the other hand, was relatively relaxed. Although his opponent was from the Supremusseum, he was not afraid. He looked at Ladon and said calmly, “Have you heard of the Feimsurge Art?”“The Feimsurge Art?” Ladon was surprised.His goal for coming to the Dieux Academy was precisely for the Feimsurge Art.The other living beings that had occupied cities in the Arena World were also bewildered.
In just a short moment, James’ aura had reached the Petit Celestial Rank, and his strength had surpassed Ladon.Out of the Feimsurge Art’s six stages, James had only mastered four since he had not acquired the inscriptions hidden within the ten cities. The last two stages were incredibly difficult. Even though he was Lord Supremus in his past life and had unparalleled strength, he knew it would not be easy to comprehend the final two stages.At that moment, James seemed strange. It looked like he had gone beyond their world and was a higher being than them. Although he was floating in the void, it gave everyone an unreal feeling.James was surrounded by mysterious inscriptions, which boosted his strength. They enhanced his physical body, bloodline power, soul, and strength. Even though he was only at the Sovereign Third Rank, he exuded the aura of a powerhouse at the Petit Celestial Rank.The Dieux Academy’s powerhouses were astonished.Xhemal’s whole body trembled uncontrollably
Ladon went all out but was unable to injure James. He was completely dumbfounded. James’ physical body was incredibly tough, and even the strength of the Petit Celestial Rank was unable to hurt him.With James’ current strength, he could kill an opponent at the Great Celestial Rank with the addition of his Supernatural Powers.“Huff.” James took a deep breath.He was relieved to finally acquire the strength to fight a powerhouse at the Great Celestial Rank. There were countless powerhouses in the Central Plane. It would be hard for him to accomplish anything if he were too weak.“W-Where did you learn the Dieux Academy’s Feimsurge Art from?”Ladon looked at James stubbornly and asked, “Have you already joined the Dieux Academy a long time ago?”James replied smilingly, “The Dieux Academy hid the Feimsurge Art inside the Arena World. You just didn’t find it.”Ladon shouted in disbelief, “Impossible! Even if they were hidden in the Arena World, how could you have comprehended i
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
