James looked at her and was about to speak when he saw Herodias suddenly extend her hand to reveal a fist-sized, multicolored pearl.James and Thea were simultaneously shocked.This was the Xyloria Tirta Pearl of the Tirta Sect. Surprisingly, it was bigger, brighter, and more beautiful than the Xyloria Tai Chi Pearl!Nobody would have imagined that Herodias had been carefully carrying such an important treasure on her.Thea said, “Don’t go against your heart, Herodias. If there is even the slightest reluctance to give it up, please don’t force yourself. James would never blame you.”James remained silent, unsure of what to say. Truthfully, he desired the Xyloria Tai Chi Pearl. However, he understood that Herodias would never have offered it up if she was hesitant. He had no intention of acting sanctimonious or pretending to decline, as that would seem insincere. He would never force Herodias to give it up if she was unwilling. According to Morgott, there were six Xyrisia Sacred
Yegor glanced at James. “What are you talking about? Despite my wife’s usual recklessness, she is very thoughtful.“I know she dreams of restoring the glory of the Tirta Sect and eliminating Yehria. Unfortunately, she wasn’t strong enough.“Now, with your help, she could meet her father once last time. She must have gained enlightenment, and the obsession and arrogance in her heart have completely disappeared.“She chose to abolish her cultivation and start over. That in itself might be a blessing under disguise.”He glanced at Thea again. “She knows that despite her thin standing in Zymurgy. Although she has been relying on the foundation left by the Tirta Sect, she probably wouldn’t have lasted long anyway. Perhaps starting over again is the right decision for the Tirta Sect.”James raised his head and said faintly, “Indeed. It’s not just the Tirta Sect that needs a restart. All the creatures in the Greater Realm have strayed for too long. It’s time to return to the right path.
Yegor, Truett, and Xitlaly exchanged glances and nodded simultaneously.Herodias sighed and said, “First, the Tirta Sect and Skynet must immediately relinquish their independence and transfer all resources, territories, disciples, and subjects under their command to James.”At these words, Truett and Xitlaly looked shocked. However, Yegor smiled knowingly.Herodias continued, “Second, once Truett completes his tasks for James, he must step down as leader of the Solstice Alliance, and James will take over its administration.“Third, we will not make decisions about our family’s future. We trust James to handle everything.”With that, Herodias looked at Xitlaly and weakly raised her hand."Mother!" Xitlaly hurriedly stepped forward to support her, eyes filled with tears.Herodias smiled. “You are a smart child, Xitlaly. Since you joined our family, I have asked nothing of you except that you address me as your mother.”“Yes, Mother. Is there anything you need for me to do?” Xitlal
“Alright, time is of the essence. Go fetch James,” Herodias instructed Truett.Truett turned, wiping away his tears, and hurried out.Meanwhile, Xitlaly and Yegor stayed by her side.Upon arriving at the temple, Truett found it empty except for James and Thea seated there.Truett approached them. “Where are the others?”James looked at him and replied, “They’ve just been released from their seal and need to recover. Have you already bid farewell?”Truett nodded, then said, “My mother would like you two to join us.”James said smilingly, “That won’t be necessary. I can’t bear another farewell. I know what’s on her mind.”After speaking, he extended his hands and revealed the Wisdom Tower, Courageous Tower, and Perceiver Tower. They buzzed as they flew toward Herodias.Truett opened his mouth but swallowed his words.James stated, “We’re like brothers. There’s nothing you can’t say.”Truett asked, “Is this an artifact that will help my mother reincarnate?”James explained smil
Seeing their startled looks, James turned around and glanced at Thea.Thea immediately reprimanded, “What are you all talking about? Ms. Herodias had just been reborn, but you’re already acting up?”Yegor’s face instantly changed. He waved his hands frantically and explained, “No, no! You’ve misunderstood. I was simply worried after seeing what happened with you and James.”James said smilingly, “Don’t worry. Herodias is the daughter of Tirta. She has two extra souls, which is why she can split into three.”Yegor sighed in relief. Truett also nodded after coming to a realization.James looked at Thea and said, “Alright. Now that Ms. Herodias’ issue is settled take Xitlaly to the Great Historial Land. We still have some important matter to discuss.”Thea nodded and summoned a purple-red light to wrap around Xitlaly. Then, they disappeared from the spot.“Wait,” Just as Truett was about to stop them, James waved his hand to interrupt him.Truett hurriedly said, “James, my wife…
Yehria sat cross-legged with her beautiful eyes shut. A faint Tai Chi Light enveloped her body. However, she no longer had the grace and oppressive air when she was Tai Chi.Just then, a gust of wind swirled at the cave’s entrance. Then, a flash of divine light flickered, and a handsome man in a black robe appeared, gradually walking toward Yehria.He looked at Yehria in silence, then sat down opposite her.Yehria asked coldly, “How dare you show your face before me? Are you here to kill me or to satisfy your guilty conscience?The man replied arrogantly, “This is my brother’s territory. I can freely go where I please.”Yehria suddenly opened her eyes, filled with hatred.“Brother? You’re overestimating yourself. You’re a mere remnant soul and are nothing but a pawn.”Morgott said with a smile, “That’s still better than you, a prisoner with no value. No matter how beautiful you are, you’re just a fish to James.”Yehria suddenly roared, “Shut up! If I hadn’t gone to the Forty-Six
Yehria said confidently, “Unless you’re not a man, nobody will refuse to become my cultivation partner, including James.“He has the lust but doesn’t have the guts. He’s a hypocrite, afraid of being seen as heartless and betraying that bitch, Thea.”Morgott burst into laughter again.Yehria urged angrily, “Stop laughing! If you still have the ambition to dominate the Greater Realms, let me out. I’ll bring you to the places where your main body is sealed and immediately help you recover.”Morgott narrowed his eyes and asked, “Seriously?”Seeing that Morgott was interested, Yehria suppressed her excitement and replied seriously, “I wouldn’t lie to you. Actually, it’s good that James is causing turmoil in Zymurgy.”Intrigued, Morgott asked, “Oh? How so?”Yehria explained, “On the surface, it looks like that bastard took away my position as the ruler of the Greater Realms and imprisoned me. In reality, the one most affected is the Law of Paths, Wesley Shepherd.”“If something happe
Yehria’s expression twisted fiercely and agonizingly, swiftly shifting until it settled into Morogott’s handsome face.Morgott said guiltily, “Stay silent. If James discovers this, we’re doomed.”Yehria reassured him, “Don’t fret. Let’s proceed!”Subsequently, Morgott controlled Yehria’s body and began to move. They pierced through the multi-colored divine light and left the Aquasoul. Then, he morphed into a purplish-red with hints of black and white, surging straight toward the Forladtt Land’s second level. Shortly after, they vanished along the Hudde Passage.Meanwhile, James was within the Genesis Worlds. He utilized his Innate Energy to activate the Xyloria Tai Chi Pearl, causing it to unleash Yin-Yang Energy throughout the Genesis Worlds.Before his eyes, a vivid and fragmented depiction of the Genesis Worlds appeared.Each fragmented shard within it symbolized the fractured Great and Micro Genesis Worlds. Enveloped by his Chaos Essence and Hongrome Essence, they gradually me
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
