James’ Primordial Spirit scanned the surroundings. Just as he was about to take another step forward, a stream of Nothingness Aura gathered into a massive gray cyclone in the void ahead. A stream of Innate Energy instantly shot out from the rapidly rotating cyclone, accompanied by countless purple-red spears wrapped in terrifying and violent murderous energy.Without flinching, James’ Primordial Spirit stood its ground. As the Innate Energy attacked, a dazzling divine light enveloped him, shooting upward to form an enormous barrier.Boom! Boom! Boom!Explosions echoed through the Jawdat Region as the spears collided with the barrier.The spears exploded on impact. The resulting shockwaves created a howling wind and a storm of lightning.The cyclone intensified, increasing the power of the Innate Energy. It shot dense spears mixed with growling spirits.James’ Primordial Spirit frowned, raised his hand, and unleashed a colorful dragon that clashed with the Innate Energy, both forc
Listening to Morgott’s words, James sighed. “It seems like he hasn’t had his ass kicked in a while and has grown arrogant.”The divine light behind James swirled and formed numerous ‘path’ words that circled his head.Morgott exclaimed, “Oh? Do you still want to fight? I won’t show mercy this time!”As he finished speaking, a dazzling divine light shot out from the ‘path’ words and headed straight toward the gray cyclone.Boom!The cyclone was knocked backward. It slammed into the Xyrisia Gate and rebounded.James’ spectral Primordial Spirit gradually became solid and walked out of the divine light. As the cyclone headed in his direction, he swung his leg and kicked it.The cyclone was sent flying toward the Xyrisia Gate and rebounded once again.James smiled bizarrely, then waved his hand, sending another divine light to strike the cyclone.The cycle repeated a few times, with the cyclone bouncing back and forth between James and the Xyrisia Gate.The formidable cyclone quic
Seeing James about to attack again, Morgott hurriedly waved his hands and stepped back. “No, no more! That’s enough fighting! The Haleth Realm is your territory now, making you invincible here. Even if you win, it wouldn’t be a fair fight.“I don’t want to fight anymore. It’s up to you whether or not to borrow the Jawdat Region. Perhaps you could just let me use a small corner near the Xyrisia Gate. We’re brothers through thick and thin. You can do this much for me, right?”James rolled his eyes at Morgott’s sudden humility, a huge contradiction to his earlier arrogance.Morgott sighed bitterly. “I can’t return to the Xanadu Realm’s Void World, James. I still have business here. You don’t have to be so wary of me. You’ve already comprehended the Forty-Nine Daoisms and become the Haleth Realm’s ruler. I’m not a match for you here and can’t cause you much trouble. For the sake of our friendship…”James interrupted. “Enough. Don’t give me that. I must know what else you’re trying to a
Harper choked with sobs, leaning against Morgott’s chest.Morgott panicked, embracing Harper tightly, and patted her back. “It’s okay, don’t cry. We’re the real soulmates. I’ll treat you well.“Stop saying you’re a slave. We’ll capture those bad guys and enslave them. We’ll ask James to give us hundreds of millions of divine beings as dowry.”Seeing their public display of affection, James laughed helplessly. “Alright, enough. Stop playing with me. You two should return to the Xyrisia Gate and get married in the Xanadu Realm’s Void World. Stop showing off your love in front of me.”After speaking, James waved his hand and summoned a vast, divine aura.Seeing James about to get serious, Morgott and Harper hurriedly stopped their performance, waving their hands frantically.“No, no! We’re just joking! I’m still willing to accompany you, my dear!”“No fair, James! You’re allowed to have a wife but won’t let me have one?”Watching their playful banter, the divine aura that James ha
Morgott’s eyes widened in shock. “What are you giving me? There aren’t many things that can impress me.”Harper’s stern look quickly silenced him. James spread his arms, and a divine light enveloped the entire Jawdat Region.The Jawdat Region’s Nine Holy Temples rose into the sky and rotated.Morgott and Harper watched in astonishment. The Nine Holy Temples were lined up in a row but separated into three groups.James pointed into the void, and a few dozen more temples emerged, connecting the Nine Holy Temples to form a dazzling and colorful pattern.The temples formed a heart, emitting dazzling lights. The scene was magnificent and luxurious.“Open!” James shouted and spread his hands. Two divine lights spread throughout the Jawdat Region, forming a barrier along its edges.Under the divine light, a beautiful terrain appeared within the barrier.Harper and Morgott watched as the scenery changed rapidly before it settled. They looked around and found that the Jawdat Region had
“It’s the path’s fault, the Jawdat Region’s fault! It’s the Heart Temple’s fault. Argh!”Before he could finish speaking, Harper knocked him to the ground and began beating him up.After a while, Harper tidied up her messy hair, smiled, and looked at James. Embarrassed, she said, “Your gift is too expensive. I feel bad accepting something so valuable.”James rolled his eyes. “If you feel bad, I can give it to someone else.”Harper quickly shook her head. “No, no! What I mean is, I’ll accept it. Otherwise, you’ll be sad.”James was rendered speechless.Morgott got up, grinned, and said, “Of course, you must accept it! If he were my disciple, I’d ask for half of the Haleth Realm!”James said nothing but stretched out two fingers and pointed at the Heart Temple in the sky.A beam of divine light shone, engraving several large words on the plaque before the Heart Temple.“Historia Palace?” Harper murmured, then abruptly turned to James. “What is the meaning of this?”Morgott frow
Morgott asked hurriedly, “What is this?”However, nobody paid attention to his question.Harper was busy selecting from the energy balls while James calmly waited for her.“This one!” After a while, Harper suddenly grabbed a rotating energy ball and crushed it.Instantly, a large knife with a dazzling light appeared in her hand.Morgott’s pupils trembled in shock.James was also stunned.Harper waved the big knife and said proudly, “With this, I can bully Morgott every day. Doesn’t he have a Demonic Body? I should be able to cut through him with this knife!”As soon as she spoke, the Jawdat Region trembled, seemingly infuriated by the knife’s force.Morgott felt a shiver and said, panicked, “Wait, what? You want to use this against me?”James laughed, “I also think that’s a little inappropriate. After all, you’re a beautiful woman. It would be weird for you to swing around a huge knife.”Harper carried the big knife on her shoulder and said, “No, I want this! I can chop down
“Though I have no desires and am generous, you should still show appreciation for me. Even if you offered me something and I refused, I would feel my effort was worth it. Don’t you think?”James chuckled as he watched Morgott pace back and forth angrily.Morgott waved his hand impatiently. “Say something! I know you’re not a stingy or shameless person. I wouldn’t have become friends with you otherwise. Though I’m usually carefree and don’t expect you to reward me, giving me a status shows how much I mean to you. At the very least, you should give me a title! Whether you like it or not, I must have one today!”James took a deep breath, looked at him condescendingly, and asked, “Are you done?”“Yes. It’s your turn to give me an explanation,” Morgott said angrily, ready to start a fight.James looked at Morgott and smiled. “You want to settle accounts? Reward for merit and punish for faults, right? Alright, let’s do it.“I remember us being enemies when we first met. Your fragmented
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
