Yuvin did not agree to Thea’s request. To him and the Mevryees, James was insignificant. More still, Thea was also just a disposable asset to the Mevryees. Thus, he couldn't agree to her request.Thea felt helpless. She frowned, thinking about what to do. She had to prevent James from looking for Illus. Otherwise, he would have to confront the Mevryees’ powerhouses and would die.James and Lemuel finished reading the ancient book. Although the book mentioned the Four Ancient Races, it did not mention their strength. Therefore, neither James nor Lemuel were aware of how strong they were. Despite that, they could tell the Ancient Four Races were powerful. They had existed way before planes had even formed and had lived for so long. It was only natural for them to overpower the planes’ powerhouses.James looked at Lemuel and asked smilingly, “What do you think? Do you want to venture into the Dark World’s depths and meet the Primevals and the Four Ancient Races?”Lemuel replied with a
“Amazing.”“The Supremusse Lotus is a rare treasure. I heard the Supremusseum’s founder acquired the Supremusse Lotus from a forbidden area in the Dark World. When he brought it back, only its roots were left. He used the Genesis Power of countless planes to nourish and revitalize it.”“Yeap, that’s right.”“The air here contains the Genesis Powers of countless planes. The Supremusseum’s founder personally set up the formation here, which continuously provides the Supremusse Lotus with energy.”“Whenever the Supremusse Lotus blooms, the Supremusseum would only harvest the flower and won’t damage its roots.”…Many discussions about the Supremusse Lotus broke out. Even the Supremusse Lotus’ origin was shared.James also stood amongst the crowd. He looked at the Supremusse Lotus with furrowed brows. His initial plan was to uproot the Supremusse Lotus since it was the Supremusseum’s core.It would benefit him greatly to uproot the Supremusse Lotus. However, Lemuel had refused to h
“Haha.” Yuvin chuckled, and then he instantly shattered the spectral palm with a snap of his fingers.“I came here for the Supremusse Lotus and didn’t want to kill anybody. Irrelevant people should leave immediately to avoid losing their lives. I’ve already given a warning, so don’t blame me if you die.”Yuvin’s voice echoed throughout the area.“He’s quite strong.”“The person who attacked him was one of the Supremusseum elders, who is at the late stage of the Martial Celestial Rank. He had struck with full force, but his attack was neutralized so easily.”Many powerhouses were startled by the sight.James was also flabbergasted. He was about to try to persuade Lemuel once again, but another powerhouse suddenly showed up to snatch the Supremusse Lotus.Lemuel had a solemn expression. He had seen almost all the powerhouses throughout all the planes. Even if he had never met them before, he knew about their existence. However, the intruder before him was an unfamiliar face.All
Lemuel had changed his mind and planned to seize the Supremusse Lotus if the right opportunity arose. He stood outside the Supreme Universe and watched the events unfold at the Supremusseum.Yuvin floated into the void with his hands behind his back. He calmly looked at Quirijn and Supremusseum’s Ten Elders.Quirijn’s face was solemn, knowing his opponent was at the Holy Celestial Rank. Although he was at the peak of the Martial Celestial Rank, there was still a considerable gap between his strength and that of a powerhouse at the Holy Celestial Rank. Moreover, he had lost the Supremusse Sword, and his combat strength had been weakened significantly.“Who the hell are you?” Quirijn said coldly, “The Supremusseum has no grievances with you, so why did you infiltrate us?”Yuvin replied calmly, “I want the Supremusse Lotus. Hand it over, and we can avoid a battle.”“I’d like to see how strong someone at the Holy Celestial Rank is!” Quirijn’s face darkened.In the past, Quirijn had o
The Supremusseum’s Ten Elders spread out in the void and flickered throughout the area, causing the area to look distorted.“What is that?”“It’s the Supremusseum’s Eradication Formation!”“The Supremusseum’s founder created the Eradication Formation. It requires the Supremusseum’s Ten Elders to cast. Everyone knows about the formation, but nobody has seen it before.”The powerhouses that have left the Supremusseum began to discuss after seeing the Ten Elders casting the Eradication Formation.”Outside the Supreme Universe, Lemuel looked at James and said admiringly, “You’re a genius. How did you create such a powerful formation? Does it have any weakness? How can it be broken?”James shook his head lightly and said, “It has no weakness. Unless you can overpower its strength, there’s almost no way to break it, and you’ll be slowly exhausted to your death.”Lemuel did not take action and watched patiently from outside the universe.The Supremusseum’s Ten Elders flickered up and
Yuvin’s powerful attack knocked Quirijn through a few of the formation’s layers.Although Quirijn had injured Yuvin after the successful ambush, Yuvin counterattacked and severely wounded him.Quirijn quickly withdrew from the formation. Immediately afterward, the Supremusseum’s Ten Elders sprung into action. They reinforced the formation and repaired the shattered layers.Powerful Sword Energies emerged around Yuvin and slashed at him, causing him injuries.Yuvin kept dodging and deflecting the Sword Energies. At the same time, he unleashed his Zen to decipher the formation. He wanted to break the formation as soon as possible, knowing he would be exhausted to death if he could not escape.However, he could not decipher the formation. While he was distracted, several Sword Energies slashed at him. He was careless, and his flesh was sliced open.“Break!” Yuvin had no choice but to use brute force to break the formation. He urged all his strength and struck the formation.Boom! B
The Bone Sword was on par with the Supremusse Sword.Yuvin gripped tightly onto the Bone Sword, and a black Sword Light emerged from it. The sword forcibly absorbed the Dark World’s energy and became stronger.“Break!” Yuvin roared and slashed the sword.A potent black Sword Energy darted out and caused a crack in the formation’s central region. The damage continued to permeate and destroy the space. Eventually, the formation’s ten layers were also shattered.Ten figures instantly emerged after the formation was broken and plummeted to the ground, destroying a few spiritual mountains.Yuvin floated in the sky. His body was covered with wounds, but he gripped his Bone Sword and emitted a powerful aura.Quirijn and the Supremusseum’s Ten Elders were badly injured. Although they did not completely lose their combat effectiveness, their formation had been destroyed, and they had no other means to fight Yuvin.“That’s some potent Dark Power.”“The sword must be from the depths of t
After carefully considering it, Lemuel decided not to take action against Yuvin.James was rather helpless and could only watch as the Supremusse Lotus was taken by someone else.Yuvin quickly escaped, worried the other powerhouses would chase after him. In his current state, he would not be able to fight a top powerhouse. He hid his aura and entered the Dark World.As soon as he entered the Dark World, he fell to the ground and spat out a mouthful of blood. Suddenly, his body also began to disintegrate.Thea quickly approached him and asked worriedly, “Are you okay, Mr. Yuvin?”Yuvin sat up with difficulty and began to treat his wounds. His face was pale as a sheet. He looked at Thea and said, “The Supremusseum’s formation was incredibly potent. I underestimated them and almost perished in their hands. If we can get our hands on the formation, our race will become even stronger.”After being trapped inside the formation, Yuvin realized how powerful it was. Fortunately, the Supr
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
