Yegor finally stopped laughing. He looked at James excitedly. “Didnʼt I say that James will always bring us the greatest luck and surprises? I told you so, Herodias!” Herodias was rendered speechless by his sudden taunt. Then, she turned her gaze toward James. She already knew that James was their lucky star from the first time she saw him. She did not need Yegor to tell her that. Since they had gotten rid of the unwanted karma and tribulations, James raised his hand and summoned the Yuraeceon Genesis Bell back to his body. As the bell chimes stopped, the dark light around them faded away a few seconds later. Yegor and Herodias each raised a hand. A strong flow of Tirta Power circulated above their palms as they tried to check their powers. The couple was on cloud nine. “Now, I can help you fuse with the Golden Bodies.” James reminded them about the next step. Herodias and Yegor looked up and smiled at James with gratitude. “Let’s start with Mr. Yegor.” James went o
Herodias scrambled to her feet and rushed toward Yegor again. However, James had lifted her with his powers before Herodias could get close to Yegor. Similar to what he did for Yegor, James fused Herodias with her Golden Body too. To everyone’s surprise, Herodias absorbed all of the Tirta Power contained in the Tirta Grand Formation after she had fused with the Golden Body. In the end, Herodias managed to achieve the Ninth Xaeclon Rank. As soon as the process was completed, Herodias immediately chased after Yegor and threw punches at him. James found it extremely amusing. Yegor cried, “That’s enough! I’m his senior, after all. Canʼt you do this when there’s only the two of us around?” “James isn’t a total stranger to us.” Herodias kicked Yegorʼs behind forcefully. “This is what you get for making me look like a fool just now!” James chuckled as he watched Yegor fly out of the main hall. “Ms. Herodias, with your current level of powers, you guys can leave the Telhervo Ho
James looked at the drunk Yegor and said resignedly, “Heʼll be out for at least two entrapochs after drinking that. It’ll be too late for anything by then.” “That’s the Chaos Absinthe, right?” Herodias asked. James raised his brows. “You know about the liquor too, Ms. Herodias?” “I used to have some close friends from the Ying World.” Herodias sighed softly. “I received several dozens of these crocks filled with the Chaos Absinthe from them.” She turned her gaze toward Yegor. “I was worried that this guy would do something foolish if he knew about the Chaos Absinthe. “So, I hid them from him all this time. Yet, he managed to make a fool out of himself anyway.” Jamesʼ eyes twinkled. “Ms. Herodias, can you give them to me?” Herodias seemed slightly surprised. “The Chaos Essence you used to fuse us with our Golden Body came from the Chaos Absinthe?” “That’s right!” James nodded vigorously. “I donʼt get drunk from drinking the liquor. I even gain a lot of benefits from drin
As James re-emerged somewhere a little further from the Telhervo Holy Site, he spotted Xitlaly who was still waiting nearby. Xitlaly was commendable for her alertness and prudence. However, it appeared she had not leveled up much. James lifted his hand and channeled a tremendous amount of Marciais Power toward Xitlaly. By the time she wanted to defend herself, the Marciais Power had washed over her. Xitlaly could not even move a muscle. Suddenly, Xitlaly sensed numerous mysterious and powerful energies flowing into her body. Those energies enhanced her bones and organs, her bloodline power, her soul, and her body. Xitlaly soon realized she could assume a seated position. After that, she started channeling the Genesis Power and the fragment of Historial Power she had in her body. To her surprise, her powers increased drastically. Eventually, James put down his hand. He cast a soundproof formation around them. “You still have to experience several tribulations before en
“Yegor, what are you doing?” The man asked in a stern voice, “According to the Law of Path, you should have been imprisoned. Why…” “Qadirre.” Yegor interrupted, “You and I were friends in the past. So, donʼt waste my time with your nonsense and move aside.” The man, Qadirre Trench, fell silent. One of the women started, “Yegor and Herodias, this is the Tai Chi Grand Temple, the most sacred place in the Thirty-Third Heaven. You are breaking the rules…” Smack! Before the woman could finish, she was slapped hard across the face by a palm formed from the Tirta Power. She dropped to the floor due to the force. Everyone looked in Herodias’ direction. Herodias stretched and shook her hand a little. Then, she put her hand on her back. “You, a mere servant, dares to bring up rules before me?” The woman on the floor wanted to launch an attack on Herodias. However, the other female cultivator signaled for her to be patient. That female cultivator said in a mocking tone, “Ylva,
At the other end, amidst a whirl of grey, black, and white lights, James materialized in the Demon Dungeon, with Jacopo and Xainte next to him.Seeing that the passage from the Dark World to the Genesis World remained open, James promptly utilized his Supernatural Powers to enhance it, equipping it with defensive and offensive capabilities.Then, he turned his attention to his son and daughter, saying, “It’s too soon for you two to have golden bodies. Let's focus on strengthening your physical bodies first. We need to gear up for a big battle.”Without waiting for Jacopo and Xainte to respond, James extended his hands. Two separate waves of Marciais Power enshrouded them, rapidly fortifying their muscles, bones, internal organs, blood vessels, souls, and bodies. This transformation enhanced their bodies into a state resembling half of a golden body.Simultaneously, Jacopo and Xainte experienced a sudden surge in strength and cultivation, feeling their abilities had spontaneously el
The moment Jacopo made a move, his sword attacks surged ahead, reaching its target before anyone could react.He cast the Soul Seizing Sword Art, and his Sword Lights brimmed with murderous intent, slicing through the air with terrifying velocity. They swiftly bypassed Quartney and pierced the body of a powerhouse at the Yuraeceon Daelm Rank’s Ninth Tribulation.His attack was swift and explosive. Even an exceptional powerhouse like Quartney could not react in time.The powerhouse that was struck exploded at the impact. His comrades snapped out of their stupor and went on defense.Xainte joined the fray, casting the Soul Seizing Sword Art as well. As muffled pops resounded, two more powerhouses were severely injured.The siblings charged into the group of powerhouses, one veering left and the other right. Their speed and prowess were astonishing, leaving Quartney dumbfounded.Shortly after the battle began, blood splattered, and severed body parts fell from the sky. The dozen or
Smack!James swung his hand at Quartney, interrupting her chatter.“You…you…” Quartney gritted her teeth furiously.James calmly demanded, “I’ll give you a chance to live. Call for your leader right away. I’d like to save the trouble of going to look for him.”Quartney looked at him maliciously and asked, “Are you sure?”“Very sure. It doesn’t matter how you contact him. Go ahead.” James nodded with a smile.Quartney grinned, then raised her hand to crush a glowing orb into pieces. A golden light soared into the sky and exploded, revealing an enormous character,With a searing look in her eyes, Quartney gleamed and warned, “Just you wait. When our Law Enforcer is here, it’ll be the end of you.”James smiled faintly, dismissing Quartney’s outburst. Then, he turned to Jacopo and Xainte, asking, “How bad are your injuries?”The siblings exchanged glances, turned to him, and shook their heads smilingly. They were still basking in the triumph of defeating Quartney. Although they
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
