Suddenly, Zemra erupted with a dazzling display of lights across the dark void instantly illuminating the surroundings.Chuba said resignedly, “The Qreiyll Sword God truly loves a good fight. Give it your all, James. It’s quite a great chance for you to have encountered, the same goes for us.”After speaking, he transformed into a streak of light and ascended into the sky.The two old men positioned themselves, one to the left and the other to the right. James reached for the two wine jugs on the table and instantly gulped them.Now, more than ever, he needed to test his skills against powerful opponents to gauge the full extent of his abilities after successfully integrating the Three Treasures.Zemra encouraged, “Let’s see what you’ve got, James.”James leaped into the void, distinct from the vibrant display of the elders. Unlike his opponent’s dazzling display of light, he stood still, like a motionless mountain. He seemed undisturbed, serene, and seemingly detached from the
Confronted with James’ attacks, Zemra and Chub found themselves powerless to defend against it. Out of desperation, they transformed into colorful light rays and dodged in different directions.Moments later, explosions erupted in the space they had just left, violently shaking the Gate of Wonders. Lightning flashed, thunder roared, and the surrounding energies churned. Witnessing the terrifying spectacle, Chuba and Zemra exchanged a glance.“Is this the strength you obtain after integrating the Three Treasures? That’s insane.”“Impossible. His cultivation rank is much lower than ours. Even though he integrated the Three Treasures, we may still win.”After speaking, Zemra stretched out his hand and instantly summoned twelve clones, lining up with his main body.Chuba laughed, “Let us show you the strength of powerhouses that have killed countless beings at the Soma Daeclon Rank!”After speaking, he also summoned eleven clones that aligned with Zemra’s clones.The clones attack
It was an intense showdown between the three. They were evenly matched, making it hard to decide on an outcome. Zemra shouted, “If you don’t attack, we might kill you.”Unlike Zemra, Chuba spoke using his actions. He transformed into a colorful light, immediately multiplied into a storm, and headed straight for James.James, besieged by their attacks, suddenly spread out his arms. Then, a giant lotus instantly engulfed the two formations.Booming explosions followed, causing the surroundings to shake. A destructive force emerged, and the cracks in the Gate of Wonders began to spread.Boom! Boom! Boom!Under another series of continuous earth-shattering explosions, countless multicolored light rays and Sword Lights shot out from the colossal lotus. Tremors continued to permeate the Gate of Wonders, causing destruction everywhere.The lotus suddenly bloomed, and the three could be seen within it. Strangely, they seemed to have been frozen in place. James’ palm was on Zemra’s for
The next moment, the multicolored light rays and tens of thousands of divine swords had spread out in the Gate of Wonders. Amidst the rampant Innate Energies and mysterious powers, they pulled back hundreds of light orbs.“Here you go, James,” Chuba shouted, sending the light orbs into James’ body.After briefly being stunned, James was enveloped by numerous colored light orbs. Then, starting from his feet, his naked body was gradually transformed into his golden body.Then, his arms also changed into the Nether Demonic Sword and Judgment Scythe. James exclaimed, “My Ultimate Golden Body? It’s back?”Zemra’s divine swords also swept up dozens of light orbs, implanting them into James’Ultimate Golden Body.Soon, James suddenly felt his soul storage return, including everything inside them.“Master!”“Master!”The two sudden cris startled James.He looked up and saw a stunning woman and handsome man before him.Hemera and Fennec also seemed to have transformed after being bap
Lesia was James’ second body and was supposedly inseparable. Even if the Yuraeceon Genesis Bell was destroyed, she could restore it.Fennec and Hemera had followed him into the Chaos Storm and reached the Yitro Daeclon Rank. He wondered why she had not come with him and if she had an unspeakable reason.Suddenly, James remembered Lesia had a mysterious background. He clasped his hands at Chuba and Zemra.“I have a question that I hope you can answer.”Zemra said smilingly, “I’m sure it’s more than just one question. Cut straight to the chase. We’ll answer before we perish.”After a brief pause, James inquired about Lesia’s identity.Naturally, James had to use Lesia’s real name, Frona.Chub and Zemra looked at each other in confusion after listening to James’ story.James pressed, “What’s wrong? Do you two not know much about her?”Zemra looked at James and replied, “We’re just surprised. Frona has been with you for so long, but you don’t even know who she is?”James shrugged
James looked at them and suddenly stopped speaking.From their explanation, he learned that only the wife can truly eliminate Yehria. However, his wife was split into two, and could not be considered the Yin governor. How, then, could they trigger the Tai Chi Tribulation?He concluded it might be necessary to merge the two halves of Thea to defeat Tai Chi. Yet, he had a dilemma about whether Thea would still be his wife after that happened.As the thought crossed his mind, James used his Zen to check on Light Thea in his soul space.Previously, she was not in the right state of mind after suffering Yehria’s brutal torture. Now that she had endured the Chaos Storm’s Innate Energy, her injuries had healed, and her powers had increased drastically.He spotted her cultivating beneath the Calidum Spiritual Tree, bathed in a mysterious white light. It was a serene and beautiful sight.James reflected on their experiences together in the Timaeus Sect and remembered his statement—to win m
“When Morgott wreaked havoc throughout Zymurgy, he ascended to the Forty-Ninth Heaven. Emperor Qadeer severely injured him in a hundred moves, allowing Taichu and Tirta the chance to seal him away by sacrificing themselves…”Zemra suddenly paused. Chuba fixed his eyes on James and said solemnly, “I must impart some final advice before our time is up.”“First, do not attempt to challenge the Five Path Emperors unless you have reached the Daeclon Mahayana. Though you’ve regulated the Three Treasures and gained immortality, it would not be wise to fight them.“Second, exercise caution against Yehria. If you’re uncertain about triggering the Tai Chi Tribulation, do not eliminate her. She isn’t your ultimate opponent.“Third, you’re capable of manipulating various energies, you still lack control over these skills. Try to engage more frequently in combat, challenge stronger opponents and improve your cultivation rank.“Forth, trust that Frona’s actions are for your own good and be mo
In the Thirty-Third Heaven, just outside the Kronosia Realm, a burst of purple-golden appeared. Shortly after, a mysterious woman with an elegant silhouette appeared. Her appearance was concealed by a black veil.She observed a mass of swirling black-and-white air before her. After a while, she took a deep breath. “Gather.”As her command resounded, multiple beams of light flickered in the void, and several mysterious figures cloaked in black assembled behind her.They discarded their cloaks one by one and unveiled their true identities. Had James been there, he would have been furious.These were the powerhouses whom James had once liberated from the Great Historial Land to serve as guardians over the Sky Bridge and the Genesis Worlds.Among them stood prominent figures such as Toviyyah from the Toviyyah Temple, Zoltan from the Zazen Temple, Ysanne from the Dynastia Temple, and Neville from the Haurvatat Temple.Influenced by Adina, they had chosen to betray James and side wit
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
