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
On the other hand, a beam of Wama Divine Light shone on a spot inside the Great Historial Landʼs Forbidden Bloodshade, filling the space with colorful lights. “Ms. Taishi?” Theaʼs eyes flew open. Thea had been inside the Forbidden Bloodshade in a seated position. She seemed pleasantly surprised.“I hope I’m not intruding,” a voice echoed through the air. Thea quickly got up and bowed slightly. “Greetings to Ms. Silver!” “You’re the master of this place, whereas I’m here to seek protection.” Silver chuckled. “You don’t have to be so formal around me anymore.” Thea was slightly flustered as she straightened up and looked upward. Just as she was about to speak, a shiny energy ball shot out of the Wama Divine Lightʼs source and swiftly entered Theaʼs body. A tremendous amount of energy filled her body the next instant. Thea hurriedly sat down and focused on channeling the energy to enhance her cultivation. Gradually, the purplish-red light radiating from her body was repla
Thea responded, “I…” “I havenʼt had the chance to pass on my knowledge to someone until now.” Taishi explained, “I’ve finally done it now. Moreover, you are the very last Alcide being who’s still alive. I am truly honored.” Thea gripped her hand. “Still, your…” “Donʼt worry about me.” Taishi shook her head. “I possess the earliest form of Innate Energy. It is enough for my stay in the Great Historial Land. “It’s different for you, though. You need to go out and join the battle. You bear the responsibility of saving all beings and helping your husbandʼs mission. “Cultivation and powers were simply what I needed to keep improving myself. With James becoming the lord of all worlds soon, I will have no use for those things.” Taishi gently wiped off the tears streaming down Theaʼs cheeks. “You two were a pitiful couple who had suffered too much pain and hardship created by the Path. “Now, your cultivation surpasses that of Jamesʼ. Excluding the Five Path Emperors and the two
It was bustling and lively in and outside the Palace of Law at the Fortieth Heaven. All leaders and superior cultivators from different groups and temples based in and below the Fortieth Heaven could be seen there. However, Wesley, the Law of Paths, had left for the Forty-Ninth Heaven. The Palace of Law was supposed to be not in use. Yet, a mysterious group seemed to have appeared and taken over the palaceʼs ownership. The group claimed to have come from somewhere above the Forty-Ninth Heaven. They declared themselves to be the true Path. They represented the Path which was stronger and more authentic than the Waitara Path. These men even gave themselves a flashy name, the Ultimate Cosimeonar Path. Not only did they want to rule over everyone in and below the Fortieth Heaven, but they also requested everyone to follow the Ultimate Cosimeonar Path and train using their theory and methods. At first, the temples and factions that were targeted were opposed to this. Unfor
James chuckled inwardly. “It’s not my fault all these ladies are coming to me. Itʼs Morgottʼs fault.” Morgott snapped at him, “How can you push the blame on me? If you were to reveal your true appearance, all the ladies here would pounce on you! “You’ve always been a ladyʼs man, and you are responsible for this mess!” James clicked his tongue. “Why you…” “That’s enough.” Lesia cut them off. “You are both charming, attractive, and handsome, okay? We know that. So, none of us need to hear you two boasting about it.” James replied, “I’m charming, whereas he’s just alright.” “Damn it! I’m not doing this anymore! I’m outta here!” Morgott fumed, “We are friends, but you canʼt…” “Alright, that’s enough. Another one is here.” James stopped Morgottʼs grumbling. As he finished, a gorgeous lady in a white robe walked over and stopped before James nervously. The ladyʼs cheeks flushed pink. “Mister, is it alright if I sit beside you?” Before James could reject the lady, Morgott
