As James returned to the Taishi Grand Temple, he was full of puzzlement, looking at Quince lying motionless in the void. Silver, as the Primal Spirit, seemed to be motionless as well. The place was unusually quiet.“It seems Silver messed up.” Lesia transmitted her voice.James sighed lightly, “She has stayed here for too long. Perhaps she hasn’t fully grasped the dangers of the current state of Zymurgy.”At that moment, Silver spoke with an ethereal voice. “You’re back. Take the stuff and get rid of this stubborn thing. You can deal with him however you want!”As the words fell, several energy balls containing divine objects reappeared in front of James with a flash of colorful light. These were all exactly the ones he had not taken earlier. James shrugged and stepped on Quince’s massive body through the void. He stepped all the way from the sole of his foot to finally sitting on Quince’s nose.“You really know how to act all high and mighty, even Ms. Silver, who’s usually so eas
At the mention of it, the soul consciousness of Morgott, floating within an energy ball in the void, grimaced as it stood up. “Is James’ Three Treasures Integration truly so formidable?”“Oh?” James looked at the soul consciousness of Morgott. “He woke up?”“I refuse to accept it.” The soul consciousness of Morgott clenched its fist. “Let me merge, let me be unsealed again. I want to fight you with all my strength. If your Three Treasures Integration is truly that powerful and can defeat me at my peak, I’m willing to serve you forever, but if not, I will never acknowledge you...”“Don’t get fresh!” Silver interrupted it. “Morgott, we made a bet earlier. Do you dare to renege?”“Shut up, Silver Thomson!” Morgott’s soul consciousness pointed abruptly to the void. “If it weren’t for Emperor Qadeer’s deceit, do you think you could have sealed me?”“You...” Silver said.“Ms. Silver.” James interrupted Silver. He wielded the Jozo Sword in his hand and sneered. “Since he refuses to acce
Suddenly, James could feel gusty winds blowing onto him from behind. The building shook as a tremendous amount of pressure came down upon it. Several pillars and walls crumbled due to the overwhelming pressure. Despite the violent tremors, James stood steadily on one spot. The Spiritual Providence surrounded his body and held him down firmly. However, it did not seem like the Taishi Grand Templeʼs building could last much longer under pressure as more and more objects fell from the roof. James moved at that moment. He swung the Jozo Sword and generated a ball of Wama Sword Light. The sword light split and transformed into thousands of Wama Swords instantly in the air. The Wama Swords traveled up to the roof and formed a layer of protective barrier over the temple. A deep voice spoke, “As expected of the Jozo Sword that originated from the Wuia Demon-Slayer Sword. I’ve underestimated you. However, you’re deluded if you think you can protect Taishiʼs Primordial Spirit Tablet an
As one of the Primordial Spirits pounced at him, James gave it a hefty kick and sent it flying away. Then, James swung the Jozo Sword forcefully, generating a huge blast of the Wama Sword Light. The attack obliterated all of the Mystic Foxʼs Primordial Spirits in one go. After that, James performed the Terrastride Step and headed for the Mystic Fox. At the same time, a gigantic formation appeared around James and the Mystic Fox, trapping them within. In a flash, Quell Lightning zoomed above their heads while the Bleis Flames burned fiercely around them. Simultaneously, the Galeat Winds roared through that space. The Mystic Fox was taken aback by the horrifying sight around him. “What is this…” The fox trailed off as he spotted the dense gray clouds gathered at the top part of the formation. Just then, Jamesʼ forty-nine Primordial Spirits, each holding a weapon, materialized just below the clouds and shot toward the Mystic Fox. Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Suddenly, multipl
James was enraged. He lifted his hand and conjured numerous palm-shaped forms with the Quell Divine Light in the air. Then, he sent them up into the sky. Boom! Boom! Boom! The huge beam of Wama Divine Light flickered as multiple explosions erupted near its source. James swiftly shot higher toward the sky and cast a series of violent attacks in the same direction by using the Jozo Sword. At one point, there was the sound of a sharp object cutting into flesh coming from the source of the Wama Divine Light amid the chaos. Drops of blood rained down on James the next instant, staining his clothes red. “James Caden, I am not your enemy. Iʼm Wiktor Weveran, Xyloria Taichuʼs disciple. I am here to discuss urgent matters with you on behalf of Wesley Shepherd, the Law of Paths!” Jamesʼ brows arched. “Well, show yourself then!” As he shouted furiously, James released a tremendous amount of Innate Energy and shattered the Wama Divine Lightʼs source. A figure descended unsteadily
Then, Lesia cast a beam of Quell Divine Light onto Taishiʼs Primordial Spirit Tablet. In an instant, the tablet shone brightly with a colorful light that traveled outward and encapsulated Wiktorʼs ball of Wama Divine Light. After that, Lesia vanished from the spot as she returned to Jamesʼ space. “You can get up now,” James lowered himself onto the ground and said. Wiktor lifted his gaze and finally noticed that Lesia was no longer there. He got up and walked over to James. “Let’s be concise.” James looked at him. “Where is Sir Wesley, and how is he?” “He’s busy going around the Forty-Ninth Heaven for various things.” Wiktor replied, “However, it is not easy.” Jamesʼ eyes narrowed. “He’s not imprisoned by the Five Path Emperors?” Wiktor explained, “He’s Lord Taiyiʼs best disciple. Moreover, the Waitara Path personally appointed him to be the Law of Paths. “The Five Path Emperors might have a higher status than him. However, they will need to be ready to face consequen
“The situation has gotten trickier for us, James.” Wiktor looked at him intently. “The release of the unorthodox sectsʼ and factionsʼ men, especially, could bring utter chaos and destruction unilaterally to those in Zymurgy and all living beings. “They would still cause a ruckus at Zymurgy even if you didnʼt join them…” “Who was it that had released the unorthodox sectsʼ and factionsʼ men?” James interrupted yet again, “Have you guys looked into it? Was Xanthakos involved in it?” Wiktor shook his head. “Um… We are still investigating that. Now…” “That’s the problem.” James said monotonously, “Will you guys truly ever be able to do that? “The Five Path Emperors have the highest status and power in Zymurgy currently. Can you really find out which of them are the bad guys under such conditions? “Even if you did, would the group of you have the ability and determination to exterminate those men?” James’ questions rendered Wiktor speechless. “During my journey to perfect m
James slowly raised his hand at that moment. “Mr. Wiktor, I am grateful for your advice, and I understand your concerns. “I know it’s just an excuse when you say you’re worried that I’ll fall for the trap. “What you and the others are really concerned about is that I may go down the wrong path, turn away from the teachings of the Path, and rebel against the governance of your master’s group. “The fact that me and the unorthodox sectsʼ and factionsʼ members may turn into demons is rather alarming as well.” Wiktorʼs eyes bulged with shock. He knew James would surely arrive at these conclusions with all the knowledge and experience the latter had. Yet, he never imagined James would just say it out loud. “I would have become a demon already if your concerns were valid.” James continued, “As for those guys from the unorthodox sects and factions, they have such horrendous appearances and strange beauty standards. “I like beautiful things, so I canʼt stand them. “Hence, I’d
