The ‘handsome man’ hiding behind the light orb flinched, appearing nervous.‘Did he catch on already? He was clearly calling me by that name! Is this disguise tool from the Waitara Path’s soul spirit actually useless?’ the ‘man’ pondered.Meanwhile, James conjured a shiny cauldron before him, with a bright blue flame burning fiercely inside.He produced a pestle and held it over the fire in different positions. “Should I roast it horizontally, vertically, or slightly slanted?“We usually use charcoal fire to roast fish. I wonder if the meat would get burnt if I used the Flames of Samadhi instead.“Oh, it should be fine! Itʼs a divine and extraordinary fish, after all. It’s big and meaty. I might even have to use up a few bottles of Chaos Absinthe to make sure itʼs properly roasted.”Yehria’s face turned red with anger. ‘That crazy bastard! Instead of thinking about how to deal with the Waitara Pathʼs soul spirit and secure the rights to govern the Haleth Realm, heʼs trying to dec
He produced a bottle of Chaos Absinthe and sat on top of the wall. Then, James sipped the liquor while he watched Yehria thrash about in the sea of flames.“Hemera! Fennec! You need to make a bigger fire! Otherwise, it’ll take forever to get the fish fully cooked!”Shortly after James said that, the blue flames and Galeat Winds swirling around Yehria turned into an eerie shade of purplish gold.“James, what do you want from me?” Yehria’s voice was strained and shaky as she endured harsher torture.James took a gulp of Chaos Absinthe and said with a grin, “It seems roasting a fish can make it smarter and improve its memory!”“You…” Yehria whimpered, “You just want to find out where the Waitara Path’s soul spirit is, right? I’ll tell you where he is! Just stop this, and I’ll tell you right away!”James’ brows arched. “I think you should try to resist a bit more.”“No… No! I’m going to be turned into ashes already! Stop this now! Otherwise, you’ll never know where the Waitara Path’
Yehria steadied her breathing and conjured three shiny energy balls before her. Then, she cast the energy balls in James’ direction.James found the answers to his questions after he scanned the energy balls with his Zen.The Waitara Path’s soul spirit had given Yehria three items: the Xaadcel Armor, the Lyonors Crown, and the Jeltjorum Shoes.The Xaadcel Armor could be used to conceal the user’s aura and keep their identity secret.Even peerless cultivators like James would have difficulty seeing through the powers of the armor.The Lyonors Crown, on the other hand, could reinforce the user’s soul and modify their physical appearance however they liked.It also had powers that prevented others from examining the user’s soul, no matter what means they had.The Jeltjorum Shoes were the real treasure among the three items. These shoes could help the user move as fast as the wind, greatly improving the user’s battle skills and speed.James never imagined that a mere soul spirit wo
‘Is there really a place outside the Haleth Realm that none of us are aware of?’ James’ main self of Path wondered.He pushed his palm forward and sent a blast of Hadufen Light into the Path Cauldron. However, his attack appeared to be absorbed instantly as it disappeared inside.“Hurry up! I can’t hold on much longer.”The voice of James’ Anonymous main self came from behind just then.James’ main self of Path took a deep breath and pushed both palms forward this time, blasting a steady flow of Hadufen Light into the cauldron.Strangely, eerie sounds of people crying came from inside the cauldron not long after the light hit it.Shortly afterward, the Path Cauldron leaning toward James was gradually pushed to an upright position. Finally, the Waltraud Power stopped flowing out of the cauldron.As the Waltraud Power around him dissipated, James’ Anonymous main self materialized next to the main self of Path.Both of them frowned as they watched the mysterious Path Cauldron shri
“Hm? Why is it suddenly so quiet?”Inside a mysterious space, the Waitara Path’s soul spirit was looking at a colorful energy ball in his hand. A small frown creased his forehead.While leaning against the wall in a corner, Thea snickered.“I bet you don’t have the guts to go out and face my husband head-on.”The Waitara Path’s soul spirit shot a glare at her. Then, he channeled some Waltraud Power into the colorful energy ball.The energy ball glowed with a beautiful, sacred light briefly. Then, an image appeared in it.From the energy ball, the Waitara Path’s soul spirit could see someone who looked exactly like him standing in front of the eighty-one doors outside the Historial Palace.The person glanced left and right as if they were looking for something.“Did it work?” the Waitara Path’s soul spirit gasped. “Did she succeed in throwing James into the Origin of Evils and Dread District?”“Waitara Path!” the Waitara Path’s soul spirit shown in the image called aloud, “I di
James chuckled inwardly as he watched the Waitara Path’s soul spirit fly into a rage.He could tell that this was probably the doing of the two protectors, who were the manifestation of the Forty-Nine Daoisms. Moreover, the Waitara Path’s soul spirit was not exactly the real Waitara Path. Naturally, he did not have the right to enter the Historial Palace.“Darn it!”The soul spirit bellowed and generated a powerful blast of his power. The flow of Waltraud Power transformed into multiple azure dragons that rammed into the door one after the other.Boom! Boom! Boom!The force of the collisions shook the entire Historial Palace. Yet, when the shaking stopped, the door still stood in the same place looking completely intact.“Ugh!” The Waitara Path’s soul spirit growled, “Who on earth is keeping the door shut…”“Mr. Waitara!”James had assumed Yehria’s appearance at that point. “Could it be that there is a specific way to unlock the door? Or perhaps the force you used was not right
“What… What the hell was that?”The Waitara Path’s soul spirit struggled to his feet, fuming.James held back his laughter and said innocently, “I’m probably not powerful enough, Mr. Waitara. So, I only managed to hold on for that long. Why don’t you try it this time?”The soul spirit froze for a moment. Then, he strode toward the door and stood right before it.Without any hesitation, the soul spirit started twisting his body like James did and sang aloud the song James picked earlier.The sight of a man like him singing and dancing to a children’s song was the most awkward and jaw-dropping thing ever.Any divine being from the Haleth Realm would find it unbelievable even if they saw it with their own eyes.James could not help but burst into laughter after watching the soul spirit for a while. He quickly adjusted his expression when he felt the soul spirit’s piercing glare on him.As the Waitara Path’s soul spirit focused on his dancing, James curled his lips and pressed on t
Beams of purplish-gold light shot through the space, filled with dense, purplish-gold mist.The only sounds were the sharp whistling of things cutting through the air.James and the Waitara Pathʼs soul spirit arrived in such a space after entering the Historial Palace.There were no signs of the five treasures or the forty-nine cauldrons, nor any grandiosity or luxury. It felt like they were standing in an endless realm of purplish gold.Whoosh!A purplish-gold light beam shot past them, but the soul spirit caught it just in time.“No wonder it was so hard to open the last door!” the Waitara Pathʼs soul spirit muttered through clenched teeth.“Turns out the forty-nine cauldrons have somehow developed the consciousness of Yin and Yang, forming two spiritual bodies.”James, perfectly disguised as Yehria, asked anxiously, “Mr. Waitara, what… what is this place?”The Waitara Pathʼs soul spirit lifted his gaze. “It was originally a dojo used for training and meditation.Now that i
