Seeing this, Yavrin could not hold back any longer and shouted sternly, “Path kings and war saints, this is the teacher’s dojo, not your battlefield. Please stop immediately!”Unfortunately, no one listened. The path kings and war saints grew more furious and felt increasingly humiliated with each attack. Enraged, they unleashed their most powerful Supernatural Signature Skills.“Wansuri Bell!”“Tenrizuigin Bowl!”“Zyrenth Breaker!”“Wraithbane Sword!”“Cosmosurge Blade!”As the terrifying strikes from various magic treasures, light swords, soundwaves, and blade lights simultaneously hit James’ Anonymous Shield, protecting his followers from different directions, an explosion erupted from the collision of the shockwaves and the shield.Realizing the danger, Lord Goyo quickly flipped his palms and enveloped the entire Goyoan Temple with an extreme purple-golden gas light.In the next moment, the powerful shockwaves spread, shattering everything in the temple, including pillars,
“James, this...” Lord Goyo began to speak, but then saw that a great battle had erupted in the void.Harper, Yianni, and Morgott each engaged with a few path kings and war saints, launching a fierce battle. In an instant, the earth shook from the force of their Sword Energy and Vital Energy.Caught off guard, the path kings and war saints were quickly defeated by the sudden, fierce attack. Injured, they scattered out of the main hall, seeking larger areas to continue the fight. Yianni, Harper, and Morgott followed closely, stirring up a powerful gust of wind. Seeing this, Lord Goyo and Yavrin were utterly anxious. They knew well that Harper, Yianni, and Morgott were once peerless living beings who had wreaked havoc across Zymurgy. Back then, countless supreme beings and gods had fallen to their hands, and it had taken the combined strength of the Five Path Emperors to suppress them.With their return and having been personally guided and purified by James, their strength was likel
“Lord Goyo, what’s going on with your path kings and war saints?” Emperor Cosimeon spoke first. “They’ve been beaten so badly, why are they still holding on?” “There’s a saying, ‘A strong general has no weak soldiers.’” Emperor Stavros said with a hint of schadenfreude, “Perhaps Lord Goyo has his reasons.” Hearing this, Lord Goyo became even more anxious and looked at James again. “James, that’s enough.” At these words, the gathered gods all paused in surprise. Lesia, standing behind James, spoke slowly, “Hampton Samir, if you had said this earlier, perhaps this sparring wouldn’t have happened.” Hearing the name Hampton Samir, Lord Goyo trembled and looked at Lesia in shock. “You...” Lesia raised her head fearlessly. “Isn’t it so?” “Who exactly are you?” Lord Goyo narrowed his eyes into slits. “Few know my true name in the Greater Realms.” “You hold yourself too high. Who dares call you by your name?” Lesia said arrogantly. “In front of our master, you’d better not put
James was puzzled upon witnessing this scene.On the other hand, Taichu stood up in surprise. “You actually captured two Surpeme Emperors alive?”“It took a lot of effort,” Emperor Cosimeon sighed. “Emperor Zenithal received a trace of the Nothingness Dead Energy from Emperor Qadeer and became incredibly fierce. If I hadn’t personally intervened, many of my disciples and followers would have perished.”“Emperor Draco wasn’t as difficult,” Emperor Stavros said with a smile. “When I arrived, she surrendered immediately. However, she was also tortured by Emperor Qadeer’s Nothingness Dead Energy, ending up in this condition.”As he spoke, he opened a box. Inside was a trembling divine being, disheveled and appearing as if she had endured horrific torment. She had lost all her imperial majesty.Then, Emperor Stavros turned to James. “We brought all the divine army under their command. Many perished or scattered, and there aren’t many left.”“Indeed.” Emperor Cosimeon nodded with deep
‘Was she waiting for Emperor Qadeer to find Wuia Palace and seize the Path Designation Bead, or did she have other plans?’While James hesitated, Thea hurried into the main hall with Emperor Zdravko and Lord Goyo.To James’ astonishment, his beloved wife entered and immediately glared at him.Then, she slightly turned her body. “Hurry up and come in! What are you waiting for?”The next moment, Harper, Yianni, and Morgott entered the main hall, each dragging two bloody figures like chastened kindergarten children. With a series of dull thuds, the figures were thrown to the ground, hanging their heads in dejection.“Look at what you’ve done to them,” Thea scolded publicly. “We agreed to spar, not to injure them carelessly.”“We didn’t hurt them.” Morgott quickly raised his head. “Thea, we were just playing with them.”“Playing?” Thea pointed at Morgott. “You ate two path kings. Hand over their souls!”Morgott extended his hand reluctantly and released two glowing souls which flew
“Taiyi was originally the supporter of Emperor Qadeer,” Lord Goyo said coldly. “Without her protection, we Path Emperors would have torn him to pieces long ago. How could we have allowed him to wreak havoc across the Greater Realms and flaunt his power in the Forty-Ninth Heavens?”Lord Goyo’s words immediately resonated with the crowd.Emperor Stavros furrowed his brows. “Tai Chi ranked first. Second is Taiyi. Third, Lord Goyo. Fourth, Emperor Tapia. Fifth, Xyloria Taichu. Sixth, Yaretzi. Seventh, time. Eighth, virtue. Ninth, space. Tenth are fate, directions, and fortune.“According to the ranking of the top-tier powerhouses in Haleth Realm, Emperor Qadeer couldn’t even make it into the top fifty. It was only because he married well that he managed to rise quickly and become one of the Seven Lords of the Greater Realms.”“That’s right.” Emperor Cosimeon sighed. “Even with hundreds of millions of entrapochs of cultivation, we can’t compare to his sweet talk. He relied on connection
“I am speaking the truth.” Lord Goyo sighed. “After Waitara Path created Haleth Realm and shaped humanoid path spirits, he established the Fiftieth Daoism on the foundation of the Forty-Nine Daoisms, holding the highest rank.“Taiyi was derived from Waitara Path. She is the foremost god of Haleth Realm and the leader of all gods. Her position as second in rank is a natural consequence.“For me, I have contributed nothing to the Greater Realms even though I am an offshoot of Waitara Path. Instead, I entrusted the realms to treacherous gods, leading to the devastation of countless divine beings. My sins are unforgivable.”Seeing that no one responded, he continued. “So, Yaretzi being ranked third is beyond dispute.”“You’re being modest,” James said with a smile. “You manage the affairs of the Greater Realms for Waitara Path, acting as his representative. It’s akin to being a prime minister in human terms. This is a position of great power and influence.”His words were teasing, whi
As soon as these words were spoken, James immediately looked at Lord Goyo.“Emperor Qadeer managed to marry Taiyi’s daughter?” Morgott suddenly spoke. “How can someone of his caliber dare to defile the creator of sound?”Lord Goyo sighed softly and stood up with a smile. “Yes, it’s Emperor Qadeer who married Taiyi’s daughter, Yaretzi Yolande.“Because of this, the Alcide beings developed extreme hatred and disgust towards him and his entire race, leading to the current irreconcilable situation.”He constantly defended the Alcide beings, insisting they had reasons for oppressing the living beings. However, it seemed petty that they held such a grudge over a single living being stealing their love.At this moment, Emperor Stavros also stood up and said, “Emperor Qadeer indeed has skills, managing to marry Yaretzi, but he achieved this through sweet talk and deceit.“Riding on Yaretzi’s status and using Taiyi as his mother-in-law, he, a mere living being, was admitted under Waitara
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
