James braved the Galeat Wind and slowly approached them like a grim reaper.“If you don’t want to die, kneel!” James’ voice came from the Galeat Wind, shocking the two powerhouses.Out of fear for his life, Abelard immediately fell to his knees. The Galeat Wind quickly approached him but blocked it with the flick of a finger.The next second, James moved his hands, and countless dense black inscriptions emerged from his palm. The inscriptions entered Abelard’s mind, causing him to fall to the ground and scream in agony.Rebella, who was still resisting the Galeat Wind, glanced over. Her face immediately paled in fear. Before she could react, James had already raised his other hand. Two terrifying black lightnings fell and struck her head.“James, you devil…” Rebella roared but was already enveloped by the flashes of lightning. Because of the distraction, her powers lost stability, and she could not resist the Galeat Wind.The Galeat Wind swept over her, immediately breaking throu
Even so, she had no choice. James seized the opportunity while she was in a desperate situation and cursed her. The world was dominated by the strong.Although James’ cultivation rank was low, he could resist the Galeat Wind. Additionally, he was proficient in Curse Magic, which could even control powerhouses at the Yuraeceon Daelm Rank’s Ninth Tribulation.Seeing that Rebella had given in, Abelard also got onto his knees.James waved his hand, and two soul contracts appeared in the sky.“Sign it, and I’ll consider sparing your cultivation bases.”Abelard and Rebella were in shock after seeing the soul contacts. James’ methods were not only ruthless but also very smart. Curses could be broken, but soul contacts were eternal. They would be under his control forever.Abelard sighed and said, “Since things have come to this, I’ll sign it. I’m a mere pawn to the Timaeus Sect. I’ll simply be in the hands of a different player now.”After speaking, Abelard released his Zen. The soul c
James used the Yuraeceon Genesis Bell as their shield and safely navigated around the Galeat Wind on the Forladtt Land’s third level. Along the way, they killed countless high-level monsters struggling in the violent wind and acquired many high-grade cores.Ultimately, they arrived at the edge of a vast ocean under Abelard’s guidance. Countless skeletal remains were floating everywhere, and parts of the sea were dyed red. Numerous souls could be seen fluttering through the Galeat Wind, wailing miserably.Despite the gloomy sight, a gleaming golden palace was in the distance. Above the palace, there was a huge sword emitting blinding lights.Abelard reminded, “That’s the Nether Demonic Sword. However, it’s challenging to cross this ocean.”“Why?” James frowned.Rebella snorted coldly. “Aquasoul can corrode anything. A low-ranked being like you should forget about it.”James rolled his eyes and said, “If you speak to me like that again, I’ll force you to marry a pig after leaving t
James stared at Lesia in silence.Lesia searched her memories for a while, then said, “A million entrapochs ago, two powerhouses at the Daeclon Rank appeared in this Genesis World. One of them wielded the strength of the Marciais Combat Form and the other Historial Power. Eventually, two factions formed, and countless powerhouses emerged.“One day, the founder of the Marciais Combat Form had an enlightenment and returned to his original nature. Then, he headed for the Heavenly Path. Gradually, the Marciais Combat Form died down in the Genesis Worlds.“At the same time, the other powerhouse at the Daeclon Rank also disappeared for some unknown reason. However, a branch of cultivating the Historial Power became a massive force. Ultimately, it became what you know as Genesis.”James’ eyes widened in shock. It was not the first time he had heard of the Marciais Combat Form’s origin and founder. The first time was when he encountered Franciscus’ remnant soul. However, Lesia’s informatio
James fell into thought, not answering Abelard’s question. The Aquasoul before him was transformed by just the eye of a powerhouse at the Daeclon Rank, but it was already terrifyingly strong. How strong would an actual powerhouse at the Daeclon Rank be?Meanwhile, Lesia claimed to be his second body, and they had a spiritual connection. However, James realized their so-called connection was pretty one-sided. Lesia knew everything about him, but he had zero understanding of her.James pondered on whether the reason was due to a disparity in strength and cultivation rank or perhaps there was more to the second body.Lesia had great insight and was incredibly wilful. Even powerhouses at the Yuraeceon Daelm Rank’s Ninth Tribulation’s peak were nothing in her eyes. She must be extremely powerful herself.After a long time, they heard the chimes of the Yuraeceon Genesis Bell. James, Abelard and Lesia, who were within the bell, were startled.A majestic gray power bloomed from the Yuraec
“I don’t accept this fate bullshit! My destiny is mine to decide, not the heavens!”After shouting, James suddenly entered the Third Marciais Combat Form, and a terrifying force emerged to push back the Historial Power. Lesia shouted, “Are you crazy, Master?!! To reach the Ultimate Golden Body is a great blessing!”James surrounded himself with the power of the Marciais Combat Form and stopped in the void. “We’re one! I don’t care whether you’re a remnant soul or a second body! All I know is you are me, and I am you. Life or death, we’ll face it together! “If someone else could reach the Daeclon Rank without the Golden Body, so can I! After speaking, James used his Marciais Combat Form’s powers to go against the Historial Power.Suddenly, a strange black light burst out for the Aquasoul and charged at James.“What the hell?” James roared, then swung his fist.His attack, which consisted of potent Genesis and the power of his Marciais Combat Form, immediately repelled the b
James slowly opened his eyes, enduring the stinging pain in his body, and found himself inside a mysterious cave. He was surprised to find a scenery with mountains, trees, rivers, mountain springs and the mist-covered ground.Suddenly, a voice came from the depths of the cave.“Good exists in all kinds of forms, and it exists everywhere.Another voice immediately followed, saying, “Peace will be upon those who stay away from a battle of power.”James was startled and quickly used all his strength to get up. However, he found that his body had become transparent, and his Holy Golden Body was gone.“Was my soul really destroyed?”James’ words caused the two figures to burst into laughter.He raised his head and saw the two distant figures ahead of him. One of the figures was dressed in white, and the other in black. The two of them had fishing rods, and strangely enough, their hooks were not submerged in the water. Instead, they were one meter away from the water’s surface.‘W
The two mysterious men asked, “Why not?”James replied firmly, “I made the decision, so why should I regret it?”The two men looked at each other after hearing his answer.The white-robed man frowned and said, “Lesia’s your second body, and her mission is to help you with her life. It’s her destiny, so why did you try to change it?”James said slowly, “She has a soul and consciousness. I’ve spent time with her, and she provided me with a lot of help. We practically share a life. If I had to sacrifice her to obtain a treasure, reaching the Daeclon Rank is pointless.”The white-robed man looked at the black-robed man with a surprised expression.The black-robed man stared at James and said, “If you reach the Daeclon Rank, you can control anyone. You’ll have all the power in your hands and can make the rules. Everyone else will be ants under your feet.James looked at them smilingly, “You two were reciting some poetic stuff just now. Then, how about I give it a go?”“The heavens a
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
