Perthacus walked away. Quattro immediately gave a thumbs up and said appreciatively, “You’re amazing, Mr. Truett! You must’ve caused a lot of trouble in Timaeus Sect.”Truett smiled and said, “I’m only interested in three things in life—cultivation, women, and fighting. Ever since I started cultivating, I’ve always picked fights with others. I’ve been to the Yaquis Sect, Bellerian Dynasty, and Javerigh Sect. However, I haven’t found a worthy opponent in the same generation as me.”“Impressive.” Even Xzavion could not help but praise him.Truett said smilingly, “I’m nothing compared to you guys. Even only at the Yuraeceon First Rank, you four dared to rob the Yaquis Sect’s sale point. I admire you guys a lot.”James asked curiously, “By the way, what’s Perthacus’ cultivation rank?” Truett said calmly, “He’s at the peak of the Yuraeceon Daelm Rank’s Eight Tribulation. It seems the Timaeus Sect’s other mountains’ masters are also at the same rank, except Mount One’s master, who is
“Yeah. I heard about them.”“It seems they are from great backgrounds. Truett, Skynet’s Young Master, brought them here. He even used Yegor Sadler’s token. Mr. Wulte had no choice but to compromise under the pressure and allow them elder positions.”…The news about James and his comrades settling in the Timaeus Sect’s Mount Martialis quickly spread. Soon enough, the majority of Mount Martialis’ disciples were aware of their existence.“Truett? That crazy guy again?”“He caused a lot of trouble last time he was here. He injured the Saint of Mount One, who hasn’t even recovered yet.”“Mount One’s Saint is the same cultivation rank as Truett. They are both at the peak of the Yuraeceon Daelm Rank’s Fifth Tribulation. Yet, the Saint was unable to fight back.”“We must avenge him.”“But Mr. Wulte had ordered us not to trouble them.”“Although we can’t defeat Truett, we should be able to fight the people he brought.”A few disciples gathered together, discussing a plan.James, on
As soon as Truett appeared, the group of powerhouses immediately turned pale in fear. Some of the weaker cultivators immediately fainted.A few sensible disciples vomited a few mouthfuls of blood, then slumped to the ground and pretended to have fainted.Everyone was aware that they would not have a chance to defeat Truett, nor could they escape if he insisted on taking their lives.The man who provoked James, however, did not manage to pretend to pass out in time. He was swept away by a powerful force and dragged toward Truett. In just the blink of an eye, Truett was strangling him by the neck.“How dare you touch my friend! Who gave you the courage?“Well, how about we check how many strands of hair you have?”Truett grabbed the man’s hair. However, a powerful voice came from the distance, interrupting his plan.“Show mercy, Mr. Truett.”A red light flashed through the sky, and Perthacus appeared at the scene. He had a powerful aura emitting from his body, which suppressed ev
James looked at Perthacus and said, “Then I hope Mr. Wulte and Mr. Truett will be my witnesses today.“If I win today’s battle, everyone in Mount Martialis shall accept and respect us as their elders.”Perthacus said, “You’re pretty arrogant, young man.”“Youth is the perfect time to be wild!” James waved his hand and summoned a first-grade Yuraeceon Xaelm Rank. After swallowing it, he said, “All of you! Come at me together!”James’ voice was full of confidence, shocking everyone present.Truett also calmly accepted how things have progressed. He tossed the man on his shoulders to the ground, then stepped aside to watch the battle.Perthacus also looked at James doubtfully, then backed away.The group of disciples quickly gathered and glared at James. They were afraid of Truett but not James.Now that they were permitted to fight, they could finally go all out and teach James a lesson.“How dare he underestimate us? He must pay the price.”“After humiliating us like this, he
Truett and Perthacus looked at the dense clouds and rolling thunder with surprised expressions.“What is he doing?” Perthacus was slightly worried.With his hands behind his back, Truett stared at the colorful clouds and exclaimed, “That doesn’t look like the Yuraeceon Xaelm Rank’s Heavenly Tribulation! Is this the legendary Martial Quasar Heavenly Tribulation?!”Perthacus frowned and asked, “What’s the Martial Quasar Heavenly Tribulation?”Truett replied casually, “I read about it in ancient books. There are nine ranks of Heavenly Tribulations. Their strength is determined by the living being making the breakthrough. The higher one’s cultivation base, the stronger the tribulation. You should be familiar with this.”Perthacus said in frustration, “I want to know what I don’t!”Truett said calmly, “Don’t be impatient! There are myths about a mysterious Martial Quasar Heavenly Tribulation that exists above the Ninth-Rank Heavenly Tribulation.“Unlike normal tribulations that test
Perthacus shouted in despair, “No!!!”On the other hand, Truett said calmly, “That’s terrifying. I need to get out of here.”After speaking, Truett disappeared in the blink of an eye.Perthacus quickly jumped into the air and summoned numerous inscriptions to create a massive formation in the sky. He wanted to protect Mount Martialis and his disciples from the Martial Quasar Heavenly Tribulation.After he set up the formation and was about to evacuate, he saw a dazzling light emerging from within the densely packed lightning.The human-shaped light sat in a lotus position, making it hard to see his appearance. The sight looked as if a god had descended into the world.“He withstood the first wave of the Martial Quasar Heavenly Tribulation?”Perthacus could not believe his eyes. The young man whom he had looked down upon ever since their first encounter, a cultivator only at the Yuraeceon Ninth Rank, now had a powerful aura that was so much stronger than himself, who was at the Y
In a certain forbidden area of Mount One, there was a stunningly beautiful woman wearing a white robe sitting atop a snow-white lotus.Her eyes were closed, and white inscriptions surrounded her body. At the same time, there was an oval-shaped light shield around her. She had a calm expression and radiated with an exceptional aura. Thick Tribulation Clouds gathered above her head, and lightning flashed through them.The Timaeus Sect’s Saintess was trying to enter the Yuraeceon Xaelm Rank. The Timaeus Sect had made many preparations to ensure she overcame her tribulation. They cleared a vast forbidden area and had four elders protect her.Countless elixirs were placed before the Timaeus Sect’s Saintess to help her through the tribulation.The Tribulation Clouds were full of energy, but the lightning never struck.One of the elders with gray hair stood in the void and suddenly exclaimed, “What is that?”The other three elders raised their heads simultaneously, and horror immediat
The Quasar Heavenly Tribulation constantly attacked James’ soul. It stumbled and fell but got up again and never stopped running toward the Saintess.The powerhouses of the Timaeus Sect watched in shock. “Can you do something like that while going through a Heavenly Tribulation?”“His soul is running toward the Saintess.”“My goodness. I’ve lived for so long, but this is the first time I’ve seen someone do that during a tribulation.”“Find out who is going through the tribulation in Mount Martialis!”“If this continues, will our barrier be able to withstand the tribulation?”“We must intervene. Although it’s a Heavenly Tribulation, we can’t allow it to destroy our sect!”“Intervene? How do we intervene? Even Elder Brecken, who is in the Yuraeceon Daelm Rank’s Ninth Tribulation, can’t get close. How will we intervene?”While the powerhouses discussed, James’ soul traveled through the Quasar Heavenly Tribulation and arrived in front of the Saintess.“Is it really you, Thea?” J
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
