James interrupted Morgott with a smile. “How could I not think of you as a friend? I wanted you to guard the entrance, but you didn’t do your job well. I’m really disappointed.”Morgott stared at James and said, “Are you saying you left me outside to hold off the Waitara Path’s soul spirit?”James said disappointedly, “It’s a pity that you didn’t do what I needed you to. Instead, you just followed the others around. However, it’s on me for overestimating you. I should’ve known you wouldn’t have been able to understand.”Morgott felt like a thunderbolt had struck him.Harper suddenly said, “I was wondering why you didn’t bring Morgott with us. So you had other intentions?”Yianni shook his head. “It’s unfortunate he didn’t get it and allowed the Waitara Path’s soul spirit to enter the Wuia Palace. It’s going to be much more chaotic in here.”Marius looked at Morgott and said, “You caused trouble again, Morgott! You disrupted master’s plan!”Morgott, who had been silently listenin
Amidst the quakes, James’ comrades instantly leaped into the air, surrounding Xanthakos and activating their strongest defensive skills.Xanthakos laughed. “Haha! Do you ants think you can stand against me? You’re overestimating your abilities.”He flipped his hand, and a black-and-white gas spread out, gradually manifesting seven koi fish. They swam through the air, aiming for Morgott, Taiyi, Yasmina, Quintus, Marius, Harper, and Yianni.When they were just inches away from their targets, they transformed into phantom figures and unleashed various attacks.Bang! Bang! Bang!Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!James’ comrades were faced with an onslaught of Sword Lights.Marius, Harper, and Yianni, who were weaker, had their Divine Light Shields shattered after the first wave of attacks. They were engulfed by the Nothingness Dead Energy and engaged in fierce battles within it.Even Taiyi and Yasmina could only protect themselves with their Divine Light Shields and defend themselves while r
Upon seeing that, James couldn’t help but laugh.Morgott was Nihilos. He could devour everything, let alone the Nothingness Dead Energy, so James wasn’t surprised.However, Quintus managing to swallow the Nothingness Dead Energy did surprise James.“Quintus!” Xanthakos roared when he returned to his senses. “You’re a traitor. How could you…”“Although it can’t be compared to the Nothingness Aura of a Caeloros God, your Nothingness Dead Energy isn’t bad.” Quintus wiped his mouth. “But why does it have a fishy smell? I almost vomited when swallowing it.”“I tasted it too.” Morgott spat a few times. “It’s disgusting. I’m mysophobic. This is simply an insult. Compensate me.”Hearing their words, Xanthakos was enraged.“How dare you…”Before he could finish, he saw a ray of black-white-amethyst-gold light flash by, sweeping away Marius, Yianni, and Harper.Then, James’ voice sounded.“Alright, Xanthakos. Don’t use such aggressive methods to avoid the bet. We both have statuses. We
“Xanthakos, the Divine Retribution is coming!”Suddenly, James’ chuckles echoed through the trembling void.Xanthakos looked up in horror and clenched his fists.“James, drop the act. I have the Triple Nothingness Martial Technique. No matter how much you try, you can’t do anything to me…”Before he could finish, a huge Xwem Chessboard appeared beneath him, expanding rapidly.At the same time, a scroll filled with various runes wrapped around the expanding Xwem Chessboard at a terrifying speed.“This is…”Xanthakos was stunned. Then, he saw the Xwem Chessboard beneath him suddenly burst out with Xaria Light, soaring into the sky and forming one black-white-amethyst-gold Energy Wall after another.Suddenly, rumbling noises sounded above Xanthakos. Countless black-and-white lightning bolts struck, quickly devouring him.Xanthakos screamed as a terrifying Nothingness Dead Energy erupted from his body, shattering the countless lightning bolts wrapped around him.As he was about t
“Don’t be too optimistic. With his current strength, Xanthakos has actually surpassed Yefrenes. He has about 70 percent of a Caeloros God's strength.“So, this formation can only trap him for a while. There will still be a life-and-death battle in the end.”Upon hearing that, Morgott frowned. “He has 70 percent of a Caeloros God's strength?”“Didn’t you experience his strength just now?” James said. “He almost killed Harper, Yianni, and Febby in one move. He managed to force the four of you into a difficult position. That’s how powerful he is.”Morgott snorted disdainfully. “I can still defeat him with one move.”“No, Emperor Caden is right.” Quintus said seriously. “Xanthakos has cultivated the Triple Nothingness Martial Technique. He is indeed invincible in the Haleth Realm.”Then, he looked at James. “But if you take action, you might…”“No.” James shook his head decisively. “Before my other main self devours Yefrenes, I’m not his match.“Otherwise, do you think I could have
In the formation, following the explosions, the restricted sections in each box collapsed one after another. The walls of the formation, inscribed with countless runes, were blocked by the terrifying Nothingness Dead Energy.At this moment, on one side of the formation, an illusory figure composed of black-and-white Vital Energy was receiving the baptism of lightning from the thick gray clouds above. His entire body was wrapped in electricity, and he laughed like a madman.This was Xanthakos after mutation, having fully activated the Triple Nothingness Martial Technique. He was terrifying.“James, your formation is incredibly powerful. It can be regarded as one of the top three treasures in the Haleth Realm.“It’s a pity that you’re going against me. Even if you can defeat Yefrenes, you can’t escape today.”Then, Xanthakos turned into two black-and-white Vital Energies and soared into the sky, striking the gray clouds.With a loud sound, the gray clouds struck by Xanthakos began
“I didn’t expect the Nothingness Neon Pen to be so powerful.”Then, the Nothingness Neon Pen in the void made another rotation. Countless runes fell, engulfing Xanthakos instantly.As the runes shone, the Holy Light spread. Xanthakos, trapped inside, screamed in agony and thrashed against the walls of the formation as if he had gone insane.However, the runes held him tightly. He was in so much pain that he seemed on the verge of exploding.Meanwhile, James and the others formed a semi-circle around the black-white-amethyst-gold halo in the center of the formation. They knew James’ main self of Path was within the halo, devouring Yefrenes. At this critical moment, they couldn’t retreat. They needed to stop the violent Xanthakos.Prepared for death, they were nonetheless stunned by the scene in front of them.“Xanthakos has gone insane!” Taiyi widened her eyes.“No, he’s in pain,” Yasmina said. “He cultivates the Nothingness Dead Energy, the malevolent energy separated by the Nin
As Morgott, Taiyi, Yasmina, and Quintus attacked Xanthakos, the Vital Energy in the formation filled the air, creating a dazzling light. The energy waves spread endlessly, continuously hitting the walls of the formation.The power of the four powerhouses' attacks was enough to destroy the entire Haleth Realm. Even though Xanthakos was powerful and wrapped in countless runes, he kept spitting out blood due to the continuous onslaught.“We must injure him severely before the runes disappear,” Taiyi told the other divine beings.In the next second, the four powerhouses circled the violent Xanthakos, each taking a corner. They activated their strongest Supernatural Powers and attacked.Four terrifying forces approached Xanthakos. Engulfed by countless runes, he raised his head and roared angrily, restrained but defiant.“If it weren’t for this darn talisman, I would have killed all of you.”Despite the immense pain, Xanthakos cursed arrogantly, twisting and turning like an angry, tra
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
