At first, Lemuel thought James was just browsing the books and could not really understand them. He now believed that James could comprehend them because mastering the Feimsurge Art in such a short time and cultivating it to the fourth stage was extraordinary.James did not pay any attention to Lemuel. After obtaining what he wanted, he left the library and returned to Mount Caden.However, once he reached, he detected the aura of a battle. The entire spiritual mountain was completely surrounded by Dieux Academy disciples.James swiftly returned to the spiritual mountain.Outside the battle arena of the spiritual mountain were many injured Petit Celestial Rank disciples.At this moment, Wubbe from the Elysium Hall was fighting against a powerhouse from Dieux Academy in the battle arena. While Wubbe hailed from the Elysium Hall with a high cultivation base—the Petit Celestial Rank—his opponent was a Great Celestial Rank powerhouse, and he was being thoroughly dominated, covered in
Mount Wagga was a powerful mountain within the Dieux Academy. The chief disciple of Mount Wagga was named Corbin Dane, with his cultivation base at the early stage of the Great Celestial Rank. In the countless planes, reaching the Great Celestial Rank was considered a top-tier powerhouse. He could casually go to some fifth or sixth-level plane and dominate that plane, becoming the Plane Lord.James wielded the Supremusse Sword in his hand. At this moment, an incredibly potent aura emanated from him.In that instant, he activated the Dieux Academy’s supreme signature martial art skill, the Feimsurge Art. His physical body, soul, bloodline, and power were elevated. His aura swiftly ascended from the early stage of Sovereign Third Rank to the early stage of Petit Celestial Rank.“Heh,” Corbin could not help but burst into laughter upon seeing James’ aura elevated. “Forty-nine, what does it matter even if you’ve mastered our academy’s Feimsurge Art? Your cultivation realm is too low.
This battle had already attracted the attention of the senior authorities in the Dieux Academy because it involved Mount Caden. Its existence was unique, so it became a subject of special focus.“It’s a bit challenging.” The headmaster, Xhemal, observed the situation on Mount Caden, stroking his beard, and said, “Even though he has reached the Feimsurge Art’s fourth stage and wields the Supremusse Sword, his cultivation realm is still too low.”“Yes,” the great elder, Jorah, said, “Corbin is the chief disciple of Mount Wagga, cultivated in the Elemental Formation. His physical body is extremely powerful, while James’ strength is quite low. Furthermore, he has just obtained the Supremusse Sword. Whether he can unleash its Genesis remains unknown. I also believe that a single sword won’t be enough to breach Corbin’s physical defense.”Even though James had reached the Feimsurge Art’s fourth stage and possessed the Supremusse Sword, the Dieux Academy’s great elders had their doubts abo
“This brat.” In the main peak of the Dieux Academy, Xhemal was shocked when he saw the Genesis Powers of countless planes gathered and formed into a Sword Energy.Jorah was also slightly stunned and said, “It’s unbelievable that the Genesis Powers of countless planes fused into a Sword Energy. Forty-nine can actually harness the power contained within the Supremusse Sword. At least eighty percent of its power.”At the battle arena of Mount Caden, as the Genesis Powers from countless planes gathered, they formed a brilliant Sword Energy. This Sword Energy contained the merged Genesis Powers of countless planes, creating an entirely new form of Genesis Power.As Corbin sensed the power contained within this Sword Energy, a solemn expression crossed his face. At that moment, he felt a bit apprehensive. He had underestimated the situation, realizing that he might not be able to withstand this strike. When this sword descended, it would likely annihilate his physical body, possibly even
The disciples of Mount Caden were all filled with excitement.“It’s impossible,” said a voice of doubt among the disciples of Mount Caden.The one who voiced the doubt was Ladon. Despite hailing from the Supremusseum, having fought with James in the Arena World, and losing the Supremusse Sword, he chose to join Mount Caden due to the irresistible allure of the Feimsurge Art.Now, he voiced his doubt.“This is impossible. I’ve had the Supremusse Sword for a while now, but I can only unleash fifty percent of its power. How can he bring out the sword’s full potential?” Ladon was highly skeptical.James glanced at Ladon outside the battle arena and calmly said, “Just because you can’t unlock the full potential of the Supremusse Sword doesn’t mean others can’t.”Immediately, he surveyed the surroundings and looked at the disciples from other spiritual mountains of the Dieux Academy, saying coldly, “Go away. Mount Caden doesn’t welcome you.”As James shouted out, these disciples from
James displayed immense potential, first in the Arena World, then by wielding and demonstrating the full power of the Supremusse Sword. Xhemal was very satisfied with him.At the apex of the back mountain of Mount Caden, James and the others gathered together.“Mr. Caden, you’re incredibly strong. I never thought that you could easily cut down the body of a Great Celestial Rank powerhouse when you wielded the Supremusse Sword. If you hadn’t held back, Corbin would have perished both body and soul in Mount Caden,” Zavis spoke with a face full of astonishment. He had not fully regained his composure.James just smiled faintly. He had only used the power of the Supremusse Sword and had not used the Genesis Path Scripture. The combination of the two was the most powerful.With a casual wave of his hand, some inscriptions materialized. The inscriptions were what he had seen in the Dieux Academy’s library. Each inscription represented a profound Supernatural Signature Skill.He distribu
“Oh?” Lemuel raised his brows and asked, “How are you so certain that I can wield the Feimsurge Art? The Feimsurge Art is a very precious yet perplexing knowledge belonging to the Dieux Academy. As far as I am aware, only one member of the academy has managed to reach the fourth stage of Feimsurge Art. Besides the academy’s founder, not a single person has managed to master the fifth and sixth stages.” James replied, “That’s because I know that you’re the founder of Dieux Academy, Lemuel Geraltos.” “Huh?” Lemuel’s eyes narrowed as he scrutinized James’ face. He had stayed out of the public's sight and concealed his presence for a long long time. Not even those from the Central Plane had a clue to his whereabouts. Only a handful of people had found him so far. However, most of them would soon meet their end either by accident or fate. Lemuel did not expect that the young man would recognize him. “You’re saying that I am Lemuel Geraltos, the founder of Dieux Academy?” “
Through his observation, Lemuel had ascertained that the human cultivator before him was the reincarnation of the Supremusseumʼs founder. James was not surprised that Lemuel had figured out his true identity so quickly. He had expected that much from Lemuel since he knew very well how capable the elderly cultivator was. Moreover, James intended for Lemuel to learn about his true identity. The other cultivators might have been misled by James when he had mentioned Thaddeus’ name. However, James knew that Lemuel wouldnʼt be fooled by him. Still, James did not outright admit whether he was Lord Supremus or not. “Sir Lemuel, could you help guide me on how to reach the fifth and sixth stages of the Feimsurge Art?” James asked again. Lemuel furrowed his brows. From his perspective, the founder of Supremusseum was not a good, upright man. That man was someone who would do anything necessary to achieve his goals. Lemuel was against the idea of James mastering the Feimsurge Art wh
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
