However, he forcibly endured it and swallowed the blood in his mouth.âWhat terrifying energy. As expected from someone whoâs reached the Supernatural Consummation.â James was shocked.In terms of True Energy, he was far inferior to Xain.He relied on his bodyâs physical strength and the black lotus.Clearly, he was not a match for Xain if he only relied on his physical strength.At that moment, Xain appeared before him.Xain clenched his fist and swung at James.His fist contained great force, seemingly wanting to crush everything in its path.James was caught up in his thoughts and was slightly careless. The powerful fist slammed into his body. His body was injured, and he was sent flying into the distance.After being blasted for about thousands of meters, the force finally dissipated.At that moment, James could sense some cracks on his bodyâs surface as if it was a piece of glass that was shattered with countless tiny cracks, which would fall apart when touched.âWhat i
Xainâs sword, which came from the Overworld, was forged using state-of-the-art swordsmithing techniques. As such, it possessed enormous power. Even Herculeans could not snap the sword in half. Now, however, it was devoured by the terrifying Demonic Energy. A chill ran down Xainâs spine. Although he was uninjured, the black lotusâ Demonic Energy was simply too malevolent. If contaminated, he would not leave this place unscathed. âWhat sorcery is this, James? How dare you cultivate a demonâs cultivation method as a human? Youâre a disgrace to all of humanity.â Xain said coldly. James looked at him. Even though his sword was gone, he was unscathed. This meant that he was much stronger than James had initially anticipated. Thus, there was no guarantee that James could annihilate him. Besides, there were many others in the Overworld whose strength was comparable to Xainâs. Should he be killed, many in the Overworld might be displeased. After brief contemplation, James suppress
Xain pressed on, âHave you heard of the battle that took place in ancient times?â âOh?â Jamesâ curiosity was piqued. Though he had never heard of this battle, he roughly knew that it had something to do with demons. âDo tell.âHe looked at Xain. Xain explained, âIn ancient times, a foreign Demon Race invaded Earth, and chaos and destruction ensued. The mighty ones amongst the human race went to great lengths to expel and annihilate them in exchange for peace.â James furrowed his eyebrows and asked, âWhat does this have to do with the seal on Earth?â Xain thought about it and said, âI donât know about the specifics. I can only give you a brief explanation.â âDo tell.â James looked at him. Xain was lost in contemplation. After some time, he said, âIn ancient times, Earth was a heavenly place. So, the foreign Demon Race invaded Earth hoping to seize the planet for themselves. Upon seeing this, every living being gathered and fought back. However, at that moment, a group o
In Yandelâs eyes, the earthlings were descendants of sinners. As slaves, they had no right to take a seat in the main hall of the Sacerdotal Sect. Xain smiled bitterly. Of course, he knew about the repercussions. However, Jamesâ strength was comparable to his. Even if he went all-out and annihilated James, he would be gravely injured. âXain, what have you been doing all these years? Youâre a disgrace.â Yandel looked at Xain in disdain. As the Scholastic Sect was a rival of the Sacerdotal Sect, he wasted no time condescendingly lecturing Xain now that an opportunity had presented itself. Xain would have been infuriated under normal circumstances. However, he managed to suppress his anger. He flashed Yandel a bright smile and said, âYandel, I donât have the right to determine whether he has the right to sit in the main hall. Why donât you do me the honor and make him leave?â Hearing this, Yandel glanced at James, who was wearing a composed look on his face. He could sense a
Based on the information on the Martial Arts Forum, the Son of Heaven had crossed into the Herculean rank. At that moment, a chubby, middle-aged man wearing a green robe and holding a sword walked in. As he glanced at the crowd, he said coldly, âThe Young Master is preoccupied with some other matters. As such, heâs dispatched me here on his behalf.â Xain stood up and introduced him to James. âJames, this is Leandro Xamir, the butler of the Son of Heaven. âLeandro, this is James Caden, a powerful martial artist from Earth.â Leandro glanced at James briefly and took a seat. Seeing that everyone had arrived, Xain looked at James and said, âSince everyoneâs present here, please speak your mind.â James then stood up and scanned his surroundings, from Samarth to Yandel, Wynter, and finally Leandro. âI came to Mount Bane today to reprimand your outrageous actions on Earth. My patience is stretched thin.â James began reproaching them from the get-go. âThis is Earth, and youâr
Mount Bane was a mountain in Sol. Ever since the seal appeared, many unknown mountains suddenly sprung out from nowhere. Many of them were sealed and impossible to navigate, whereas a few were not. At the peak of Mount Bane, James wielded the Primordial Dragon Blade. Wearing a composed look on his face, he simply gazed at Yandel who was a hundred meters away. Faced against a powerful figure from the Overworld, he was undaunted. Even when his strength was weaker three years ago, he had managed to gravely injure Xain after performing his ultimate move. Now, although his realm was still a distance away from Xain, their strength was comparable. Since Yandel was not any stronger than Xain, James was not afraid. Wearing a white robe, Yandel swung the fan in his hand as he exuded a charismatic aura. The fan was his weapon. As the fan moved, a mysterious power began to emerge. âYou have a death wish.â Yandelâs expression darkened. Then, in an instant, he took a step forward and app
Samarth approached Xain and whispered, âXain, why donât we join forces and annihilate him?â Xain looked at Samarth. Samarth had a murderous look on his face as he said, âIâve been observing him for some time. His abilities are bizarre. If we let him go, heâll completely overwhelm us in just a few short years.â Xain thought about it and said, âThereâs no need to rush things. Letâs observe for now.â Meanwhile, James was still engaged in a fierce battle against Yandel. Now that his weapon was gone, he could only fight against his opponent with his physical capabilities. However, even though his physical capabilities were powerful, there was still a disparity of power between him and Yandel. After a few rounds of battle, he began suffering injuries. However, his physical body was weird. It seemed to be able to rejuvenate by itself. Boom! Their fists collided once more. James staggered backward and vomited a mouthful of blood. Then, he lowered his head to look at his palm,
Leandro Xamir was the butler of the Son of Heaven, a mere servant. However, as the Son of Heaven wielded enormous influence, no one dared cross Leandro. Under normal circumstances, his words represented the Son of Heaven. Upon seeing Jamesâ terrifying strength, he intended to exterminate him on Mount Bane. They looked at one another and nodded. âI have long wished to annihilate him,â Xain said. After James killed his disciple, he had been thinking of ways to enact revenge. However, he was afraid of Jamesâ strength. Now that they joined forces, he was no longer intimidated. In the distance, Yandel was covered in blood, his hair disheveled. He looked at James furiously and roared, âYouâve provoked me, you b*stard! Iâll tear you to pieces!â Fwoosh! At that moment, the sound of the wind could be heard. James scanned his surroundings. Xain, Wynter, Samarth, and Leandro had appeared, blocking his path to retreat. They all exuded terrifying auras. All of them had broken free
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
