“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
James stared at Morgott and said, “I’ll give you time to think about it. It might be hard to figure it out with your intelligence, so you should ask your wife for help.”Morgott raised his head solemnly and replied, “That won’t be necessary! I can make my own choice! Now that I have Harper, I don’t care about the Xanadu Realm. However, I must still have my revenge and restore my dignity!”James squinted at his response. Morgott had always come across as humorous, impulsive, and bloodthirsty. However, he was showing a completely different side of himself at that moment. Under his funny and brutal exterior, he had endured many sufferings and hardships.Staring at Morgott, James waved his hand and teleported Harper into the Historia Palace. Then, he sat cross-legged and summoned a jar of Chaos Absinthe before Morgott. Naturally, he took out another jar for himself and began to drink.Simultaneously, a grand formation surrounded them.After being momentarily stunned, Morgott quickly u
Many things did not need to be said aloud. A single action or gaze was enough to make everything clear. With this in mind, James took another large gulp of wine. Then, he asked, “What did you just say? I need to set rules and establish a hierarchy for the Haleth Realm?”“Isn’t that necessary?” Morgott looked at James puzzled.James shook his head and chuckled, “Rules are essential, but they’re not for the Haleth Realm. They are meant to restrain the deities. The hierarchy is also crucial to promote, reward, and punish them.”Morgott looked at James as if he were insane and asked, “And what about the Greater Realms’ living beings? Don’t you need to oversee them too? Without rules, won’t there be complete chaos?”James laughed. “They haven’t accepted me as the Supreme Path, so why should they submit to me? What right do I have to decide their fate?”Morgott gasped and asked, “Then, what’s the point of becoming the Supreme Path? How will the Greater Realms’ living beings live with or
James returned to the mysterious space after a flash of divine light.Frona tilted her head, looking at him with interest.“The first deity of the Haleth Realm wasn’t given to your wife, children, or closest friend, but to Harper?”James met her gaze and asked, “Do you have any objections?”Frona shook her head and replied, “No. It’s a stopgap measure, but it will become a huge problem in the future.”James said solemnly, “You’re wrong. I am not wary of my close friends and don’t need to scheme against them.”Frona said with a smile, “Is that so? Then who are you keeping the five Treasures of Nothingness for?”James frowned, annoyed at Frona’s ability to see through his thoughts. However, he was helpless against her.Frona stared at him and said, “Every deity will have their own opportunity and fortune. True strength can’t be achieved by grace. Moreover, you still haven’t made a decision about your wife.”James’ face darkened. “I appreciate your help, Your Divinity. I can retu
James frowned as two dazzling lights flashed before him, revealing two mysterious old men, one in black and the other in white.The old man in the black robe had white hair, a long white beard, kind eyes, and an aura of serenity. Meanwhile, the other old man in the white robe had black hair, sword-like eyebrows, a fierce gaze, and an intimidating presence.The two old men bowed in unison and said respectfully, “It’s a pleasure to meet you, Supreme Path.”James, puzzled, asked, “Who might you two be?”The old man in the white robe smiled. “I’m the Destiny Sect’s Left Envoy, Walen Dakiema.”The old man in the black robe said solemnly, “And I am the Taoist Right Saint Envoy, Karis Mauton.”James was still perplexed but quickly discovered their origins from Frona’s memories.Although the Destiny Sect was relatively simple, it had a clear hierarchical system. Their leader was naturally Frona, who held the Caeloros Supreme Scepter. Additionally, she was the leader of the Caeloros Gods
Walen clasped his hands and bowed. “You should establish a cultivation sanctuary and temple, then choose a core for the Haleth Realm.”Karis bowed and agreed, “That’s right. You need a temple to have a place to appoint deities to rule over the Forty-Ninth Heaven, Zymurgy, and the Greater Realms.”James put his hands behind his back, showing a thoughtful expression.He considered using the Wuia Palace as his cultivation sanctuary. After seizing the four Treasures of Nothingness, he acquired the palace. All he had to do was change its name, which was a simple task. His biggest challenge was appointing new deities.James had countless friends and comrades who had accompanied him through life and death, and he naturally knew a lot about their character, temperament, and abilities. However, he had been separated from them for countless years since he left for Zymurgy.As long as they are human, they will change, especially during the ups and downs of the Haleth Realm, where the human h
Yasmina’s gaze shifted from Taiyi to James. She then said, “It’s true. I’m not quitting yet. I haven’t had enough fun. Moreover, I got to meet such an interesting master like James. I’ll do whatever it takes to be appointed as a deity.”James burst into laughter.Taiyo took a deep breath and said, “I see how it is! Since you want to have fun, how can I miss out? We’ll lead our own Daonus Realm and see who can produce more powerhouses after a hundred entrapochs!”Yasmina replied arrogantly, “Sure. How could I lose to you?”“You!” Taiyi was livid.Seeing that the argument was about to intensify, James intervened with a smile. “Alright, that’s enough. With your talents, it would be a waste to let you only lead Daonus Realms.“Let’s do this instead. Both of you will be conferred as Daoism Goddesses of the Haleth Realm. Taiyi is given the title of Supreme Empress of Tribulation and Blessings, a first-ranked deity in charge of the Daoism of Tribulation and Blessings. You are granted th
After James’ majestic voice resonated, four additional Supreme Path Sources descended upon the four deities, bestowing them with divine power.Wesley received a black and white Dao robe, a vitality belt, and the Life and Death Cauldron. Silver was granted a colorful robe, a space belt, and the Space Cauldron. Meanwhile, Mordecai and Dillon each gained control over the divine tower of their respective Daonus Realms.Countless energy balls hovered around them, offering an array of treasures to choose from. Wesley and Silver eagerly examined the treasures, enthusiastically discussing their choices.However, Mordecai and Dillon stood awkwardly, feeling lost and out of place.Seeing this, James gestured to them and invited them closer.“Are you not satisfied? Or do you not wish to be one with the Supreme Path?”Mordecai and Dillon exchanged glances, then said simultaneously, “We…”Mordecai stared at Dillon, urging him to speak.After taking a deep breath, Dillon looked at James help
