James believed Thea would not become corrupted even if the Dark World’s evil powers were released.Franciscus replied solemnly, “It’s not an exaggeration. There’s only one way to deal with the situation.”James asked, “What can be done?”Franciscus answered, “To find her other reincarnation.”“Huh?” James looked at him in confusion and asked, “Did Thea reincarnate as two different people?”“To be more specific, it’s the reincarnation of the Illuminated World’s Heavenly Path’s consciousness. The Dark and Illuminated World used to be one. If the Dark World gave birth to a consciousness, the same would happen to the Illuminated World. The consciousness of the Illuminated World’s Heavenly Path is the only thing that can control the Dark World’s reincarnated consciousness.”James immediately grasped the concept. Essentially, when the Dark Heavenly Path’s consciousness became Thea, the other Illuminated World’s Heavenly Path also produced another Thea.The other her was not from the d
James clicked his tongue and murmured, “Is the Fourth Marcias Combat Form that strong?”Franciscus was a legendary figure who could single-handedly fight against the Three Thousand Great Genesis Worlds and the numerous Micro Genesis Worlds. Yet, Yianni was capable of suppressing him.“I never faced him before, so I don’t know,” Franciscus said calmly, “I’m just speculating. Yianni was a powerhouse at the Yuraeceon Daelm Rank’s peak. If he were to use the Fourth Marciais Combat Form, I probably would lose. Sigh…“Why am I even talking about this stuff? It’s pointless. We’re not even from the same era anyway.”James asked, “Have you ever considered traveling the River of Time to fight him?”“I did. However, his era and mine were disconnected. I have no idea what happened in his era. The River of Time doesn’t connect to his era. I simply can’t reach it.” Franciscus’ tone was calm, but his expression showed evident disappointment.He changed the topic, saying, “I still have some powe
Stephen had also received a blessing. However, his cultivation rank remained the same. He had only mastered a unique Supernatural Power.Swoosh!At that moment, James and Xzavion appeared.“They’re back!” Stephen quickly stood up.James and Xzavion approached them.Quattro stared at James and asked smilingly, “How did it go, General? What did you get this time? Could you show me?”At that moment, many people surrounded them.“Congratulations, James. Would you be interested in visiting our sect?”“You should come to see the Bellerian Dynasty, James.”Many powerhouses sent James invitations. Although they had smiles, James knew they had wicked intentions.He was from the Dark World, which the other Genesis Worlds did not acknowledge. If he were to visit these major sects after obtaining Franciscus’ inheritance, he would be walking straight into his grave.Moreover, the tombkeeper had already warned him to be careful in the Three Thousand Great Genesis Worlds.“I have other bu
James was left with the group of powerhouses after his comrades fled the area. However, he was in no rush to escape.Nando and his group did not pursue after James’ comrades either. Their main target was James and the treasure he had obtained.James looked at the Judgment Scythe, then at the powerhouses led by Nando, and said calmly, “If you want to snatch my treasure, you should at least tell me your origins.”Nando said solemnly, “Listen carefully. I’m from the Ancient Genesis World’s Yaquis Sect. We’re one of the oldest and strongest Orthodox.James looked at Nando and said smilingly, “Oh, you’re from the Yaquis Sect. So, who’s asking for Franciscus’ inheritance? Is it you or the sect?”“You’ve too many questions.”At that moment, an elderly man stepped forward and said, “Why bother talking to him? Let’s kill him and seize the treasure.”James looked at the elderly man. He had a compelling aura and had already reached the Yuraeceon Xaelm Rank. With James’ current strength,
James was already gone, but his voice still echoed in this gray space.“Huh?”“This is impossible. He’s only in the Yuraeceon First Rank. How could he break the Sealing Formation I set up?”The powerhouses of the Yaquis Sect were shocked.“Aren’t you guys going to go after him?” Nando’s face darkened as he ordered, “Sir instructed us to obtain Franciscus’ inheritance. Our sect has deep hatred against Franciscus and the Dark World. If we let him escape and go into hiding, he will pose a great threat to us once he rises.”Following Nando’s order, the Yaquis Sect living beings who were present immediately went after James.After using the Blithe Omniscience to escape, James dared not stay put. He put all his might into the Blithe Omniscience and kept using it to run away.He continued to traverse this gray space.A while later, he hid his aura and erased the aura he left in this gray space.Even then, he dared not let his guard down as the other party was a Superorthodox from the
Quattro returned dejectedly after flying away from the impact.“I’m only telling the truth.”He pursed his lips and said, “You’re only in the Yuraeceon First Rank. You will only reach the Yuraeceon Xaelm and Daelm Ranks after the Yuraeceon Ninth Rank. Both the Yuraeceon Xaelm and Daelm Ranks have nine tribulations. Who knows how long it’ll take for you to reach the Yuraeceon Daelm Rank’s Ninth Tribulation? You might die even before reaching this cultivation rank.”James ignored Quattro.On the other hand, Xzavion appeared to be serious. He said, “What Quattro said makes sense. The gap between our strength and the powerhouses of the Great Genesis Worlds is too big.”“Yeah.” Stephen also nodded and said, “We experienced disasters in the Dark World. Our foundation is too weak. Perhaps we can only go against other Great Genesis Worlds by merging with Auroral Genesis World.”James took out the core of Igneous.This core was huge. It was the size of a house.The core contained a magn
James pulled out the Judgment Scythe.Xzavion smiled and said, “I think it’s possible with the Judgment Scythe and Adjudication Sword.”James looked at Stephen and said, “Meditate in seclusion and absorb the core. I will also take this opportunity to meditate in seclusion and study Curse Magic. Once I comprehend it, I will use the Judgment Scythe to summon the evil power sealed in the Dark World.”James had obtained Franciscus’ inheritance, but he did not study it back then.Now, he needed to use this opportunity to study Curse Magic. He wanted to know how powerful the complete Curse Magic was.Based on Franciscus’ record, the complete Curse Magic was almost invincible.James set up a time formation in this place.Stephen began to meditate in seclusion and absorb Igneous’ core.Meanwhile, Xzavion took out a part of Igneous’ corpse.“This is great stuff!” Quattro looked at Igneous’ scales. At once, his eyes lit up as he said, “If these scales were used to create armor, its defe
James’ aura was too evil. Even Stephen and Xzavion were worried something would happen to James if he continued cultivating.Nonetheless, upon remembering that it was Franciscus’ inheritance and nothing happened to Franciscus, they believed that James would be fine after cultivating it.Stephen continued to absorb Igneous’ core.On the other hand, Xzavion continued to fiddle with Igneous’ corpse.Days passed.In the blink of an eye, an epoch had passed in the outside world.As for James and the others, a long time had passed in the time formation.An epoch later in the outside world, Quattro returned.His body descended from the sky and landed on the ground, crushing a mountain range. In dire straits, he got up from the ground and appeared in the spiritual mountain James and the others were in.“What happened?”Xzavion, who was idle, glanced at Quattro.At this moment, Xzavion sensed a large group of living beings in the distance. Their auras were powerful. There were many p
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
