James’ group walked through the Zephyria World. However, apart from graves, there were no treasures at all.Even if there were treasures, those who first ventured into the Zephyria World would have already taken them.The graves were dug out and emptied, leaving only bones in the coffins.The bones had those that belonged to humans, as well as other creatures.After being buried for long years, their bones no longer had any energy.“Let’s go.”James said disappointedly, “We’ve already looked around, but there isn’t anything special.”After failing to find any treasures, James planned to leave.His main goal for leaving the Dark World was to find Thea. He planned to head to the Ancient Genesis World to search for Thea.Since the Ancient Genesis World was the core, powerhouses from all the different Genesis Worlds would gather there.They headed back to the Zephyria World’s borders and were about to leave.Boom!Suddenly, a loud explosion came from the depths of the Zephyria
Xzavion frowned slightly and said, “Is this grave related to the Dark World?”“These words belong to the Dark World? Xytos looked at Xzavion and asked doubtfully, “What does it say?”“Franciscus Yuelan.”James, Stephen, Xzavion, and Quattro read the words simultaneously. “Huh?”The Meyer brothers went limp and fell to the ground with pale, frightened faces.lJames looked at them and frowned.Xzavion asked, “What’s wrong? Is Franciscus someone special? Why are they so scared?”“Franciscus?!!”Lannie’s face was pale, and his lips trembled in fear.Quattro looked at him and said disdainfully, “You guys are powerhouses at the Yuraeceon Third Rank. How can you be so scared of just a name? Regardless of how strong he is, he’s a corpse right now. Do you have to be so scared?”The three of them felt shivers down their spines. It was a natural reaction for them. The name itself was terrifying, and they could not help themselves.The Meyer brothers sat down and used their powers to
The Meyer brothers had no idea what kind of background Franciscus had. They did not know much besides the fact that he existed before.Quattro’s face lit up with joy, and then he said excitedly, “There must be a lot of great treasures inside his tomb. Let’s open up his grave and check what’s inside.”“I’ll do it.” Stephen flashed into the sky and appeared in front of the grave. Then, he summoned several inscriptions to form a giant sword and slashed at the grave.However, a protective barrier suddenly appeared and blocked Stephen’s attack.Boom! The force rebounded, and Stephen fell from the sky. He crashed into the ground, and a huge pit formed. Dust rolled up and permeated the air.Stephen got up from the ground, patted the dirt off his body, and cursed, “Damn it. There’s a formation.”James did not say much after confirming Stephen was alright. He turned to the formation around the tomb.Xzavion suddenly said, “It feels a bit familiar.”After Stephen observed for a while,
“You’re right.” Softly, James said, “We are adept in the primitive inscriptions of the Human Race and various races from the Dark World. None of them can do anything to this formation. They can’t crack it.”James and the rest stood before the tomb and looked at the living beings appearing constantly.Zephyria World traversed among the realms, attracting the attention of the realms’ powerhouses. The powerhouses who sensed the appearance of Zephyria World rushed over.Moreover, many powerhouses of the Ancient Genesis World also sensed it. They sent powerhouses under their sect to check out the situation.James and the others sat on a rock before the tomb.Looking at the living beings appearing one after another, they discussed among themselves quietly.“There are so many powerhouses.” Quattro could not help but sigh and say, “They’re all in the Yuraeceon Rank. The world outside the Dark World is too terrifying. I have to be careful. Otherwise, I may lose my life.”At this moment,
Xitlaly originated from the Ancient Genesis World. She was the Grand Priestess of a Superorthodox. The Orthodox she belonged to developed a secret art that could resist Curse Power.Even if a living being placed a curse in the deepest part of her body, she could resolve it. Her gaze landed on Quattro.Franciscus Yuelan was the forbidden powerhouse.Many things happened in the distant past. The living beings of the outside world might not know about them, but she came from a Superorthodox. Thus, she knew a bit about those matters.“Yeah.”Smugly, Quattro said, “I’m from the Dark World. What do you think? Do you want to come to the Dark World with me and be my partner?”Xitlaly was curious about the Dark World. After all, many strong powerhouses were born in the Dark World in the distant past.She was interested in Quattro, especially after sensing the latter’s cultivation rank. She was puzzled. Quattro did not even enter the Yuraeceon Rank, yet he could traverse the gray space of
The Meyer brothers had fallen to the ground and fainted.James and the others were discussing about Franciscus. Each time they mentioned Franciscus, they felt a sharp pain as if a sharp dagger had pierced their bodies.“Dragon General is right.”Quattro walked over. He had already changed into his main self. He preferred being in the appearance of a pig.“Fellow cultivators, can you break the formation?” A pleasant voice sounded.James and the others turned to look in the direction of the voice. A white flower appeared before them before disappearing. Xitlaly descended from the sky in a white dress and landed steadily before them.“We can’t break it. Leave now.” Since Quattro had failed to get what he wanted moments ago, he no longer liked this beautiful lady. He ordered Xitlaly to leave once she appeared.Xitlaly ignored Quattro.As the Grand Priestess of a Superorthodox and ancient force, she could tell that Quattro was a side character and that the person in charge was James
Quattro felt fearful after Xzavion threw him out. At once, he shouted Franciscus’ name ten times. Among the thousands of powerhouses present, only a few living beings were unaffected.As for the rest, the curse in their bodies erupted.Quattro’s body spun around in the sky. In the end, he landed on the ground steadily. He rushed toward James and the others before sitting on a rock beside James.“Welcome to Zephyria World.”Just then, a voice suddenly sounded throughout the entire Zephyria World.Following the voice, a mysterious formation appeared around Zephyria World. After the formation appeared, Zephyria World disappeared.In the Ancient Genesis World, many powerhouses were observing the situation of Zephyria World. However, they suddenly could not sense Zephyria World.In Zephyria World, many powerhouses sensed that a formation had appeared around the world. They wanted to rush out of the place, but it was too late. They were trapped in the formation.Many powerful lords a
When Quattro called for Franciscus, the Curse Power in the deepest part of the living beings’ souls erupted.They were in pain as if countless bugs were biting their flesh, but they were still excited.The inheritance of a forbidden existence was extremely terrifying. If one could obtain it, one would stand at the top of the Genesis World’s pyramid.The tombkeeper scanned his surroundings and said, “According to Franciscus’ last words, his descendant must be an extraordinary prodigy. Aside from that, his cultivation base must be lower than the Yuraeceon Second Rank, which means his cultivation rank must be in the Yuraeceon First Rank or lower. That way, he’ll be able to enter the Tomb World and participate in Franciscus’ assessment. After that, he can obtain Franciscus’ inheritance.”The tombkeeper waved his hand.A powerful energy emerged from his palm. The energy headed toward the living beings in the Yuraeceon Second Rank or above, sending them flying out of Zephyria World.Ev
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
