James suddenly looked around and asked anxiously, âWhereâs Lesia?âHe released his Zen, causing the surroundings to tremble violently. The ground shook, and space cracked, spreading rapidly.Boom!A loud explosion erupted, and the Sealed Space collapsed.Immediately afterward, James saw the Daonus Realms in the Forty-Ninth Heaven shattered into pieces.âWhat...â James raised his hand in shock. He had not used any strength, only released his Zen, yet he shattered an entire space.âIs it because Iâve integrated the Three Treasures and Five Spirits? Am I that powerful after achieving the Limitless Body and Ultimate Serenity?â James was dumbfounded as he saw Marius, Taiyi, Yasmina, Yiulia, Hankin, Yianni, and Morgott tens of thousands of light-years away.Their fearful expressions looked so unfamiliar, and James wondered if he truly possessed the aura of a Caeloros God of Nothingness. Supposedly, if that were true, then it had to be Frona.âCould it be she...â James was shocked at
Fronaâs goal was to make James the hero of the Haleth Realm, Xanadu Realm, and the Destiny Sect.âIs your gift a blessing or a curse? Should I be grateful or angry about it? Was it fate or a forced burden upon me?â James slowly closed his eyes.Lesia sighed and said helplessly, âShe gave you everything but left me and the Yin governor behind. She knows I have my own will and am no longer her Soremsia. She must have also realized that no matter what decision you make, the two of us will stand by your side.âWe canât force you into anything. Itâs up to you to make a choice. The Yin governor and I arenât worthy of providing you with advice.âJames kept his eyes shut, silently processing everything. He sorted through his conversations with Frona, trying to unravel the meaning behind her words.Sometime later, Lesia asked, âHave you decided yet, Master?âJames suddenly opened his eyes, and two beams of light shot out. He waved his hand, and the group standing in the distance was insta
âWhat are you doing, James?â Morgott asked anxiously before turning to flee. However, the aura swiftly caught up to him and imprisoned him.Morgott shouted, âStop playing around, James! Youâre overdoing it!âJames flipped his hand, and a colorful light instantly surrounded Morgott, extracting Soul Energy Balls from his body.The Soul Energy Balls contained memories of Morgottâs past and present lives. After examining them, James did not find what he sought.Following Fronaâs instructions, James thrust his palms forward, and four potent lights emerged, circling Morgottâs body.As Morgott screamed, a sinister aura emerged from his head and formed a mysterious figure with a blurred face, fangs, and claws, exuding a terrifying air.âI knew something was wrong with him!â James frowned at the sight.âShould I call you Frona or James?â the mysterious figure suddenly spoke, and his aura seemed capable of destroying everything.James squinted and asked, âWho are you?âThe mysterious fi
James waved his hand and said, âSave the threats. Since you have great ambitions and want to rule over everything, why donât you create a Daoism like the other Caeloros Gods of Nothingness? Why resort to stealing?âNihilos retorted, âDo you think I want to? That old bastard, Xurraeus, was super biased. He created Ten Entities, but Iâm the only one who canât comprehend Daoism or create my own space.âGiven my circumstances, I had no other choice but to steal from others. Everyone else had their own territories and treasures. I couldnât possibly wander the Xanadu Realm and beg for stuff, right?âJames sneered, âYou were born strong but with a dull mind. Thatâs quite pitiful. But since you only wanted to seize territories for fun, why did you want to take the other female Caeloros Gods of Nothingness for yourself?âNihilos retorted, âWhat about you? Why do you want the Yin governor? Why did you have children with her?âJames was momentarily stunned by his words.Nihilos snorted, âYo
Nihilos said deliberately, âEven though Frona has become your Cultivation Heart and passed her aura to you, she still went against the natural order by passing through the Xyrisia Gate. You possess only thirty percent of her strength. Though she could transfer all her knowledge to you, she couldnât bestow her full strength.âJames replied calmly, âI donât need it.âNihilos acknowledged, âTrue. You are quite formidable now. Youâve integrated the Three Treasures and the Five Spirits. Frona even sacrificed herself to become your Cultivation Heart to help you achieve a Limitless Body and Ultimate Serenity. But do you really think itâs enough to stop the Waitara Path from returning and prevent the Leere Tribulation?âJames frowned at his words.Nihilos emphasized, âYouâre only formidable in the Haleth Realm. In the Xanadu Realm, you wonât even rank in the top ten.âJames said firmly, âMy business is within the Haleth Realm.âNihilos laughed, âIsnât your goal to deal with Xanthakos? Wi
Within the tower, Taiyi, Yasmina, Yiulia, Hankin, Marius, Harper, Yianni, and other powerful figures stood at the end of a light bridge, surrounded by smoke and dust. They were hesitant to venture deeper without James.Now that James had the Caeloros Aura, he had become their greatest dependency.A purple-gold light flashed, and James appeared nearby. The group of powerhouses, who had been waiting anxiously, quickly gathered around him.Harper questioned, âWhereâs Morgott?âEqually curious, Yianni echoed, âYeah. Why didnât he come along?âHankin said emotionally, âMorgott is the most loyal to the Mortal Emperor. He wouldnât retreat at a crucial moment like this, right?âJames raised his head and replied, âI shut him out.âEveryone was stunned by the response and immediately suspected that James no longer trusted Morgott and was wary of him.Before they could ponder further, James stepped onto the light bridge and disappeared into the colorful clouds.The group exchanged glance
James asked, âAm I wrong?âTaiyi and Yasmina exchanged uneasy glances before bowing in response.James, with his hands behind his back, said slowly, âThe twelve Olympus Domes behind the Wuia Palace are the dojos of these twelve gods, correct?âSeeing Taiyi, Yasmina, and Hankin lower their heads in embarrassment, James smiled.âThere is nothing to be ashamed of. You had different beliefs but were too weak. You only had two choices, either to fight to the death or compromise.âFighting against the Waitara Path would only lead to being devoured by him. Though itâs a noble act, it is ultimately futile.âJames sighed and said, âI would have done the same if I were in your position. When youâre not strong enough, you have to temporarily endure the humiliation. However, itâs important never to forget your original intention.âSo, you need not feel ashamed. Face your past with dignity.âThe three gods raised their heads and looked at James with gratitude. They expected him to mock them
After listening to their chatter, James raised a peculiar smile. âNope. Youâre all wrong. They have been here for a long time, but they are waiting for us to make a move.âThe powerhouses were stunned by the revelation.Taiyi said solemnly, âI agree. Xanthakos is extremely smart and cunning. He has hidden his ambitions for countless years. He will never act without full confidence.âYiulia frowned and remarked, âBut we have searched all around and detected no one else.âYasmina squinted and said, âThere is only one logical explanation. His strength must already be far beyond ours, hence why we cannot sense him.âEveryone wore solemn expressions after the possibility was mentioned. Apart from James, they were extraordinary powerhouses capable of dominating the Greater Realms with ease. Xanthakosâ strength would have to increase significantly to surpass them by such a margin.Taiyi stared at James and said, âIf the other party is really here, then the choice is ours. Should we elim
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
âNo wonder,â Lord Goyo finally understood after an extended contemplation.He distinctly remembered that back at the Yinâs Void, Jacopo, the incarnation of Waitara Pathâs 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 Jacopoâs identity as an incarnation of Waitara Pathâs 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.âYou fool, do you realize your mistake?âThe Yang governor and Gladwin looked up simultaneously, their faces full of fear.âLord Goyo, I truly didn't notice this. I had no idea when the Dark World was separated.ââLord 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.âWe need to sort this out first,â the Yang Governor glared fiercely at Gladwin. âWho's going to explain this later, you or me?âGladwin swallowed nervously. âOf course, it should be you.ââWhy should it be me?â the Yang Governor scoffed. âHaven'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?âGladwin's face twitched. âThis has nothing to do with cowardice. It's your duty as the leader of the Path Guardian Alliance.âThe Yang Governor laughed in exasperation. âYou'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 menâŠ" "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 standâŠ""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 warriorsâjust three of themâappeared 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. âWynton, 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.ââAnd so what?â Wynton roared. âYouâre 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!âJames smiled. âKeep going.ââI know you donât want to owe me any favors.â Wynton glared at him angrily. âYou gave me three free attacks to repay me for sparing you in the River of Time.âNow, Iâve given you your childrenâs past selves back, and you owe me once more. Youâre waiting for my terms, arenât you?âJames looked resigned.âWrong,â Wynton sneered. âI wonât 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!âJames sensed something was wrong and was shocked. âWynton!âWynton, imprisoned, began to burn, flames flickering and licking his body. He roare
"ThatâsâŠ" The sight of that token filled Wynton with shock. "Y-Youâre 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.'Itâs 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 canât control it, so you canât either. The only one who can is the Yin governor."He looked at James. "And sheâs cleaved in two. Unless you can merge them together, the mirror will not work. However, with just your wifeâs half-self, finding Wuiaâs 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
