“This is bad! Master is beating Morgott and Yianni to a pulp! They’re going to die if we don’t save them!”Marius stumbled out of a beam of light that had landed inside the Anonymous Space. He shouted anxiously, as if he had just escaped a catastrophe.The divine beings and superior cultivators huddled together turned their eyes to Marius. Strangely, no one said anything.It wasn’t that they intended to ignore their comrades in distress; they had genuinely run out of ideas and options. For days, all of them, men and women alike, had been brutally beaten by the crazed James countless times. Most were severely wounded since James didn’t hold back at all.For instance, Hankin had lost an arm that had yet to grow back. At the moment, he was treating a wound inflicted by James when the latter cut off his ear with the Wuia Demon-Slayer Sword.Yiulia’s hair had been pulled out. Her clothes were tattered, and her face was disfigured by severe swelling and bruises. Her body was also cove
Soon enough, Thea started to feel a bit exhausted. She stopped punching and lifted her foot to kick at James. However, she was sent flying away by the reddish-gold light emanating from James’ body, which glowed brighter just in time.“James Caden, how dare you hit your wife! Just you wait!” Thea yelled furiously.Meanwhile, James shrugged with an innocent look in his eyes. He then landed on the ground with a loud thud. Huge cracks appeared on the surface as violent tremors shook the space.Despite all the commotion, Marius and the others, who had their backs to James, dared not turn around. Most of them subconsciously held their breath in fear. As they sensed James approaching slowly, everyone felt as though it was the end for them.Being picked by the crazed James meant suffering another round of violent beating.“I just got hit. My injuries aren’t healed yet,” Yiulia said nervously as James walked past her.“Me... Me too!” Marius looked away. “I’m still vomiting blood.”“Don’t
Inside the Gate of Anonymous, Waitara Path’s soul spirit could be seen near the bottom of a picturesque waterfall.He sat with his legs crossed, a thin layer of Waltraud Power enveloping his body.Despite Marci sacrificing herself by exploding her body, Waitara Path’s soul spirit managed to complete half of the fusion process just in time.Currently, he possessed at least thirty percent of the full powers Waitara Path once had. His powers had even exceeded those of some Path Emperors.However, this was far from enough for Waitara Path’s soul spirit.He sent his Primordial Spirit out of his body to search for beings he could devour and incorporate into himself. Consequently, his main body was in an inert, unconscious state.Waitara Path’s soul spirit surmised that James would be held back by his inner demon and could not show up for their battle as promised.He believed he no longer needed to be wary of James, who had been a great threat to his plans since James would soon breach
James gave a slight nod.“It’s your turn next.” Thea took a few steps backward.When Waitara Path’s soul spirit was thrown his way, James gave his all and executed a spinning kick.Boom!A bloody hole was drilled through the soul spirit’s chest instantly. The soul spirit then flew toward Marius.However, the force of James’ kick was so strong that even Marius was sent hundreds of light-years away when the soul spirit crashed into him.“Shit! This isn’t how you kick a ball!” Marius shouted frantically.The others looked bewildered by what had just happened.“James, did you really understand the rules?” Thea shot a glare at him. “You can’t use that much force. We’d all just fly away with the ball!”Like a mischievous kid caught being naughty, James lowered his head and nodded.A brief moment later, Marius returned to where the others were, along with the soul spirit.“Master, you can’t kick it that hard. It’s going to make the receiver fly away for sure!”Then, Marius kicked
Inside the Gate of Anonymous, Thea and the others were still engrossed in passing Waitara Path’s soul spirit around like a ball.Marius even assumed his actual appearance and dribbled the soul spirit’s body with his horns flashily.Just then, a beam of light shot through the air and entered the soul spirit’s body.Marius had just tossed the soul spirit into the air with his horn when the latter’s eyes flew open.An immense amount of Waltraud Power radiated from the soul spirit’s body.“Febby, watch out!” Thea shouted a warning as soon as she detected the danger.Waitara Path’s soul spirit had transformed into a beam of sword light and came down onto Marius.Whoosh!In a flash, Marius’ gigantic form was severed in half by the sword light. His body exploded, and the force sent blood and flesh shooting in different directions.“Febby!” Thea screamed as she rushed over to where he was.Yiulia and Hankin quickly followed behind her.“How dare you scums try to hurt my body!”Wait
“That’s a brilliant idea from the Yin governor,” Yasmina mused. “This way, James won’t have to suffer the repercussions of breaking the soul contract.”Taiyi snorted. “You’re just jealous of her.”Yasmina glared daggers at her. “Taiyi, all you do is bicker with me! Have you come up with any ways to help James remove his inner demon?”Taiyi remained silent.“You haven’t.” Yasmina pointed at her. “All you can do now is mock me.”Strangely, Taiyi did not try to retort. Instead, she slowly narrowed her eyes.Yasmina’s eyes widened. “...Huh? Did she really make it back here?”Taiyi met her eyes. “Open the gate.”Yasmina raised her hand and conjured a gate of light.A few seconds later, a person stumbled through the gate and dropped heavily onto the floor.A mass of black and white gases emerged from Taiyi’s body, traveled toward the person, and moved them to where Taiyi and Yasmina were.The two of them were shocked to see the devastating, bloodied state the person was in.It to
Taiyi furrowed her brows. “He’s inside the Anonymous Space. We can’t get in either.”“She’s right,” Yasmina sighed. “Besides, is there anything more urgent than the issue with James’ inner demon?”Lesia took a deep breath. “My master needs to overcome his inner demon to prevent the Leere Tribulation and help the Haleth Realm return under the Paths’ governance.“However, everything will be for naught if the Haleth Realm ceases to exist before that.”Taiyi’s and Yasmina’s eyes widened.The Haleth Realm would cease to exist?They would think it was a joke if they had heard this from another divine being.Yet, Lesia was the Soremsia belonging to the leader of the Nine Caeloros Gods. Moreover, she had just made a trip to the Xanadu Realm.There was just no way Lesia would joke about this matter.Yasmina asked, “What is going on?”Lesia sighed and produced a tower in the center of her palm.Black and white smoke emerged from the tower and gradually formed Frona’s figure in the air
After Taiyi, Yasmina, Lesia, and Frona entered the Gate of Anonymous, they were immediately struck by the rapidly spreading shockwaves within the space.“Protect the Caeloros Supreme!” Taiyi commanded, spreading her hands to cast a black-and-white barrier.Yasmina also quickly raised her hand to create a shield to block the shockwaves.Beyond the space in the Gate of Anonymous, red clouds gathered in the sky, and crimson lights and energy flashed intensely.Within the clouds, two figures were locked in a fierce battle, exchanging punches and kicks. They fought from the void to the ground and back again with terrifying speed, each confrontation causing significant damage to the surroundings.The Waitara Path’s soul spirit and James clashed with their palms, causing a loud rumble. The impact instantly knocked them both away.“Hmm.” After briefly contemplating, the Waitara Path’s soul spirit sped toward Taiyi and Yasmina.Boom!After shattering Taiyi and Yasmina’s defenses, he rea
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
