Coincidentally, James had finished absorbing the purplish-black lights. He teleported and re-emerged in the spot where Biefren stood earlier. Then, James quickly unleashed a black and white energy that extended toward the sky. The energy caught all of Biefrenʼs broken body fragments swept away by the wind. Just then, countless purplish-gold sparks appeared in the air. Those sparks started flying away swiftly in different directions. James furrowed his brows. He immediately performed the Dawnblaze Form and the Terrastride Step to catch up to the purplish-gold sparks. Unfortunately, the sparks seemed to be traveling at a faster speed than James had expected. He swiftly took six steps, halting time and the sparksʼ movement. Then, James collected all the purplish-gold sparks by performing the Dawnblaze Form. The Zenithal Roc Matron had a look of bewilderment on her face as she watched James move across the sky for the sparks. When James was eventually done and reappeared befo
James fell silent. Biefren willingly offered up his core, and nobody forced him. Therefore, revenge was not an option.Yukha was the most despicable of them. It was clear she had been secretly instigating, but nothing could be done against her.Yrian looked at James and said, “The road of cultivation is full of thorns. Not only does one need a strong will, but one must also be decisive enough to make hard decisions…”James interrupted him, saying, “More like decisiveness to do whatever it takes for your interest. I just met Biefren, but he gave me his life. I’m afraid nobody would believe that he did this willingly.”Syrian sighed softly, “Yukha is a wise guy. He sacrificed his life, knowing it would kill two birds with one stone.”James looked at Yrian and said, “I just want to confirm one thing. If I didn’t want his core, would he still have died?”Yrian nodded, saying, “Yukha and the Grand Patriarch would disagree. After all, you’re the Ying World’s hope.”After a brief pause
James said calmly, “I just want her to understand that I won’t stay silent and play along with her scheme.”Yrian smiled bitterly, sat opposite James, and said, “Things are different now. You’ve cultivated the Terrastride Step, Dawnblaze Form, and Chaos Yin-Yang Eyes. You also have an Ultimate Golden Body, Nirvana Golden Bones, Chaos Essence, and the Yuraeceon Genesis Bell. Yukha might not be a match for you even if she did use her full strength to fight.”James shook his head and said, “You don’t need to flatter me. This aside, I’m more interested in what kind of grudge you have with the Spirit Beast Clan?”Yrian had an awkward expression, evidently taken aback by the questions. After a brief pause, he explained everything.The general story was about how the Ying World had communicated and tried to negotiate with the other races when they chose to withdraw from the Tai Chi World. Ultimately, except for the Spirit Beast Clan, no other races were willing to follow them.The Ying W
Yrian looked at James, who had fallen silent. Then, he took a deep breath and said, “You have to learn to make sacrifices. Otherwise, it would be detrimental to your cultivation path.”James frowned and asked, “Sacrifices? What do you mean specifically?”Taken aback, Yrian parted his lips to answer but swallowed his words.James glared at Yrian and asked coldly, “Are you asking me to forget my promise to fulfill Biefren’s dying wish and forsake the Spirit Beast Clan so you can use them as cultivation resources? Is that what you mean by sacrifices?”Yrian raised his head and took a deep breath. He knew James regarded the Ying World’s powerhouses as despicable people after Biefren had died. At that moment, they were in a tough spot.He felt the misunderstanding was too much for him to resolve, and explaining would only be counterproductive. Hence, he decided to let the Grand Patriarch handle it.At that moment, Zenithal returned with Xyrll.Zenithal suddenly shouted, “Kneel.”Aft
James entered the Ying World’s colorful gate and instantly heard an impatient voice. “I don’t like you. I want to be with my friends. Moreover, I haven’t completed the task my master has assigned to me. I can’t stay here for too long.”James looked over and saw a familiar figure approaching from a distance.“Stephen?” James was overjoyed.The figure in the distance was stunned after hearing James’ voice. After spotting James, he shouted happily, “Master!”Before Stephen could say another word, he was dragged away by a black force.James’ joy instantly dissipated and was replaced by confusion.A delicate voice came from behind Stephen, saying, “I don’t care. You’ve caught my interest, and I want you as my partner. I’ll beat up anyone who dares to get in the way.”Shortly after, a beautiful young lady appeared behind Stephen.Stephen growled, “Stop holding me back! I already told you it’s impossible between us! I already found my master! I won’t stay in this place!”The young la
James and Yrian simultaneously put their hands behind their backs and smiled at each other.Syrian said while smiling, “They’ve been destined for each other. Your disciple was born from Hongrome Essence, whereas Leuko was born from Chaos Essence. They are a match made in heaven.”James was overjoyed by his words. Both Xzavion and Zella speculated Stephen had an exceptional origin since his body contained mysterious and unfathomable power.When they first met, James also suspected that Stephen had unlimited potential and would achieve great heights in cultivation. He never would have guessed that Stephen was born from Hongrome Essence.James looked at Stephen and asked, “Do you not like her?”“I don’t!” Stephen struggled to escape Leuko’s restraints.James asked teasingly, “Why not?”Stephen was taken aback by the question. He glared at Leuko and said, “She’s too intimidating, unreasonable, and is a bully!”Leuko was furious by his words and said, “Hey! Do you have any conscienc
Sensing the tense atmosphere, Yrian quickly stepped between them and said, “Calm down. It’s just a misunderstanding. After all…”“There’s no misunderstanding,” James glared at Yukha and said, “Biefren’s death isn’t the problem. It’s her acting smart and trying to manipulate the situation.”Yukha fell silent at James’ accusations.Yrian stood aside helplessly. He looked at Yuka, then turned to James. However, he refrained from speaking again.James looked at Yukha and said, “Let’s do this. I’ll get past the third level, no matter what. I don’t want you to go easy on me. Even if I am severely injured or end up dying, at least I know where my strength stands.”Seeing that the battle was unavoidable, Yrian sighed. He looked at Yukha meaningfully as if to signal her to go easy. He did not want James to be injured. Otherwise, nobody would be able to bear the responsibility. Afterward, he stepped aside.Taotie glared at James hatefully, then soared into the sky with the Yuraeceon Genesi
Immediately afterward, James cast the Third Marciais Combat Form and Chaos Yin-Yang Eyes. Then, he appeared before Yukha in a flash and bare-handedly fought the Honlarne Sword. The rapid confrontation caused an explosion, and a harsh clank permeated the void.Two figures flashed across the void, and their Sword Energies intertwined. Their potent forces caused the universes to rotate. As a result, a few planets collided and collapsed.It was a showdown between powerhouses with Eight-Star Combat Power. Such an intense battle was unprecedented in the Ying World, and all the living beings could not help but stop whatever they were doing and stare into the sky in shock.At that moment, a slightly translucent black force permeated and quickly covered the entire Ying World. It rapidly absorbed the spreading shock waves from the battle, then transformed into a mysterious formation to protect the Ying World’s inhabitants.James used the Dawnblaze Form as his foundation. With the addition of
