Thea shook her head and wiped the sweat off her forehead. Then, she replied, “I don’t know. I suddenly felt uncomfortable.”James looked at her and fell into thought.“What’s on your mind?” Thea interrupted his thoughts. James shook his head and said, “It’s nothing.”“James…”Suddenly, a voice called out. James turned toward where the sound came from and saw an elderly monk. The monk took a step forward and immediately appeared before James.“Zeno,” James greeted him.“Did you break the formation of the Prison World?” “Yeah. Is something the matter?” asked James.Zeno gave a thumbs up and said, “Great job. Since you’ve opened the formation, it means you’ve mastered the primitive inscriptions of the Dark World’s different races.”“Yeah,” James nodded and said, “I’m planning to merge the Prison World with the new plane outside to reform the Anceralos World.”“Gather!” James shouted.At that moment, a powerful force emerged from his body and forcibly moved the Prison Wor
James began to merge the Human Race’s Mount Bane into the new plane and Prison World. Once integrated, it would be a world equivalent to Ancestral Site.Previously, it was difficult for them to merge planes in the past as he had to bear a potent pressure from heaven and earth.Now, he was relaxed. With his current cultivation rank, he could easily resist the pressure.The Prison World and the new plane gradually fused.Boom!After the two completely merged, the Prison World ceased to exist.A rumbling sound spread throughout the new plane, and many new areas formed.Mount Bane also transformed, and new spiritual mountains emerged from the ground.The Human Race's Anceralosalso reappeared.Maxine, who was cultivating atop Mount Bane, also benefited greatly from the fusion.The Human Race's Anceralos just so happened to emerge in the area where Maxine was. Therefore, she was fortunate to be blessed by the heaven and earth. Her cultivation rank and aura improved rapidly.Meanwh
James dispersed the inscriptions.Talvelai immediately felt the Dark World’s pressure and fell to the ground. He struggled to sit up and then mobilized his strength to resist the force.At that moment, James took action. A powerful force emerged from his body, forming a protective shield around Talvelai.After doing so, James also felt a terrifying force crushing down on him.Even though he was powerful, he found it hard to resist.James roared, “Break!”Meanwhile, Talvelai used all his strength, and his aura was at its most potent state.He had already entered the Quasi Bliss Rank’s Consummation a long time ago. Theoretically, he was supposed to enter the Transcendental Bliss Rank. However, he entered the Ritual Rank instead.Unfortunately, he had obtained too many boons and blessings throughout his life. Therefore, he was chosen to enter the Ritual Rank.Without the suppression of the Dark World, it was relatively easy for him to enter the Transcendental Bliss Rank.Talvela
James fell silent, not giving a certain answer.Although he had a rough guess, there was no evidence to prove it.“I’ll leave first,” James bid farewell, then left.After leaving the Mevryees, he returned directly to the Anceralos World he had just successfully merged. James silently returned to the Anceralos World’s Elysium Hall. Then, he appeared at the backside of a mountain and found a man cultivating in a lotus position.Qairo had a potent aura emerging from his body. Upon sensing James, he quickly stopped cultivating and stood up.“James.”“Mhm.” James nodded and looked at him. Qairo was still at the peak of the Quasi Bliss Rank’s Consummation and had yet to enter the Transcendental Bliss Rank.“Do you have the confidence to enter the Transcendental Bliss Rank right now?” asked James.“Uh…” Qairo contemplated. After a while, he replied, “With my cultivation base, I could’ve made a breakthrough a long time ago. However, I wasn’t certain…”Naturally, James was aware of
Soon, lightning tribulations began to strike.Qairo was really accomplished in the Quasi Bliss Rank. Moreover, he received a blessing during the fusion of the plane. As a result, he had grown even stronger.He easily resisted the lightning tribulations. The power of his Heavenly Tribulation was potent and lasted very long. However, Qairo withstood it with his overwhelming strength. It was not long before he successfully entered the Transcendental Bliss Rank.Qairo made a breakthrough without any accidents this time. He exclaimed happily, “I did it! I’ve entered the Transcendental Bliss Rank! Who the hell spread the rumors about being unable to enter the rank without first passing through the Halcyon Road?”James nodded lightly and said, “Good job. Alright, let’s head back.”After speaking, James returned to the Elysium Hall.Many powerhouses had gathered in the main hall.Quattro looked at him in disbelief and asked, “Have you successfully entered the Transcendental Bliss Rank
James returned to the humans’ Heavenly Court. However, he found them besieged by a group of powerhouse.An army and some powerhouses from the Human Race gathered outside the South Heaven Gate.Thea stood at the forefront, staring coldly at the many creatures besieging the Heavenly Court.Swoosh!At that moment, a light descended from the sky, and a man emerged before the humans.“James!”“Dad!”Everyone called out to him.James looked at the armed humans behind him, nodded lightly, then looked at the opponents.He unleashed his Zen and found that they were really powerful. Amongst them was someone at the Transcendental Bliss Rank with great achievements.James glared at them and asked, “Why are you attacking us? Who are you people?” A man walked out of the group, stared at James, and replied, “We were ordered to capture Thea.”James frowned and asked, “Capture Thea? By who? Why do you want to capture her?”“These are questions you shouldn’t ask. We’re under orders and ar
Everyone returned to the Heavenly Court.James and Thea sat together in a lounge of one of the Heavenly Court's palaces.Thea asked confusedly, “Who were those people? Why are they trying to capture me? What kind of place is the Theognostos? What’s inside the Halcyon Road? What kind of force are they?”James frowned at her series of questions. He knew about the Halcyon Road. It was just a passage to leave the Dark World. However, he was clueless about Theognostos from the Halcyon Road. In the original Anceralos World, there was only a world created by the various forces to guard the Halcyon Road.Now, James was also curious about what had happened after he and Xayvion perished. Why did the Halcyon Road disappear?James could not answer Thea’s questions. He looked at her, rubbed her head, and said smilingly, “Don’t worry. Everything will be fine.”Thea felt relieved by James’ comforting words.…In the Halcyon Road, there was a world with a massive spiritual mountain. On its ape
In the Human Race’s Heavenly Court, James found the Halcyon Road that had reappeared at the depths of the Dark World. However, the other races were still unaware.Despite that, it would not be long before the news about the Halcyon Road’s reemergence spread throughout the Dark World.Nobody knew what kind of storm it would stir up this time.Outside the Heavenly Court, a woman appeared. She immediately caught the attention of the Heavenly Court’s powerhouses. Many of the Heavenly Court’s members appeared at the South Heaven Gate.A woman in a white dress and an exceptional aura hovered outside the South Heaven Gate. She looked like a mysterious and ethereal being.Many people, especially Hetsema, were stunned to see the woman. He stared at the woman, and memories of the distant past resurfaced.Hetsema shouted, “Mom!”The woman who had appeared was Yemima, Hetsema’s biological mother.However, Yemima had already been reincarnated, and her current body was of a white fox.She
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
