James slowly raised his head, and his expression tinged with arrogance. “Since you claim to be divine beings that are superior, then prove it. Adhere to the Bloodshade Theory and serve the mortal beings for a while.”With the wave of a hand, a terrifying surge of crimson light struck the powerhouses. Their bodies shuddered as their True Essence, Zen, Golden Bodies, and internal organs were enveloped by the light. Instantly, their faces were colored with shock.James stated calmly, “I’ve cast Bloodshade Restrictions into your bodies. As powerhouses at the Daeclon Rank, you should understand the implications, right?”The kneeling powerhouses were instantly thrown into an uproar.Bloodshade Restrictions was a legendary Supernatural Power that Emperor Yarden had created by coincidence. Those who were under its restrictions would effectively become a slave. Should they harbor even the slightest disobedience or malevolent intent, their master would be alerted, and they could be instant
“Given your current actions, Zymurgy and Yehria will surely tear you into pieces, pulverize your bones, and scatter your ashes. The living beings of the Greater Realms will perish with us.”James smiled disdainfully at her rants. Then, he waved his fingers in the void and unleashed a multicolored holy light. Persephone instantly cast out a purple energy and deflected the holy light. Surprised, she mumbled, “I…I wasn’t out under the Bloodshade Restrictions?”The powerhouses turned to her, shocked to see the purple light radiating from her body.James scoffed, “You’re a traitor that isn’t deserving of Emperor Yarden’s Bloodshade Restrictions. It would be a great insult if I used it on you.”After speaking, James waved his hand again, and a horrifying flame struck Persephone.Boom!With a thunderous explosion, Persephone was instantly engulfed in flames. Hysterical screams echoed from within as her face and body contorted violently.In mere moments, her golden body was completely
Inside a crimson cave within the Forbidden Bloodshade, Marci was seated in a lotus position, with her body emitting a vibrant purple and golden light, giving off the appearance of a sacred and majestic being.Suddenly, the light grew brighter, and thousands of hands emerged from her body, rushing toward a boulder before him at lightning speed.The cave entrance crumbled with a loud crash, sending tremors throughout the area.“Eternaflare Mastery! I’ve finally mastered it!” Marci rejoiced, her eyes snapping open as she chuckled sinisterly.“You wretched being! I don’t care whether you’re James or Forty-nine! Even if there were ten of you now, I would easily trample on you.”With those words, she threw back his head and erupted into wild laughter.At that moment, a ten-color light flashed before her eyes, and James suddenly materialized.Marci, sensing something amiss, ceased his laughter abruptly. She immediately lifted her head, and her expression changed drastically. “You—”“Com
James shrugged nonchalantly. “Is that all you have? Shall we continue?”Marci squeezed out a few words through clenched teeths, “How? How are you so strong? It’s not possible…”Mid-sentence, her eyes suddenly widened as a realization dawned on her. “Wait, you’ve received Emperor Yarden’s inheritance. This is the Great Historial Land, where Emperor Yarden’s golden body resides. You can harness his remnant power, making you invincible in the Great Historial Land.”With a fierce glare, she added, “But outside the Great Historial Land, you would never be a match for me."“So?” James urged her to continue.“So…” Marci paused and swallowed her saliva. Then, she said unwillingly, “What else can I say? You will never give me the chance to leave. Now that I’m at your mercy do with me what you will.“It’s a pity. I am also one of the Chosen Ones, but I’ve been suppressed for so long. I thought I could finally soar to great lengths, yet here I am, thwarted by you.”With that said, she clo
Marci stared blankly at James for a while, then suddenly began scrutinizing him up and down.“You’re an admirable hero but also a tragic one. You seem to always be losing your wife.”James was rendered speechless.Marci said with frustration, “Your wife is also quite the troublemaker. If not for her, you, the harbinger of chaos, wouldn’t be interfering with other people’s perfect plans.”James’ expression darkened at the comment. “So you’re saying your plans failed because I’m searching for my wife?”Marci answered angrily, “Am I wrong? I’ve researched you thoroughly. You were just an ordinary man, concerned only with the love for your family. If not because your wife left the Dark World, you wouldn’t even be aware of the Tai Chi World, nor would you have ever come to this place. Ultimate Golden Bodies, Emperor Yarden’s inheritance, and becoming the Chosen One would be completely out of your reach.”Marci’s frustration boiled over, and she abruptly stood up. “Isn’t your main conce
As James invoked the power of the towers, they expanded rapidly and cast a formidable divine light to spread through the Forbidden Bloodshade. Within moments, Marci was instantly knocked down.Boom! Boom!With two loud explosions, the towers surged forth and pinned Marci to the ground, instantly immobilizing him.“James, Forty-nine! You bastard! Aren’t we acquaintances? You can’t do this to me!” screamed Marci. Faced with Marci’s howls, James calmly descended to the ground and said, “I’m curious to see the face hidden beneath your black veil.”With a swift gesture, James summoned a burst of ten-colored holy light. It sliced through the air and delicately lifted the veil from Marci’s face.As the veil fluttered away, James stared at a beautiful face that looked unexpectedly familiar.“You…Quincy?”James was caught in a swirl of disbelief and confusion. Marci spat back defensively, “My name is Marci. Kill me or obliterate my soul, do as you wish. But don’t insult me.”James w
James’ gaze filled with regret as he looked at her. “I’m certain now you’re not Quincy. She isn’t as foolish or absurd as you.”With the wave of a hand, the ten-colored light whisked Marci into the void. Suddenly, her black robe was shredded, leaving her exposed. Marci shouted in a panic, “You! You pervert!”“Go on, keep yelling.” James casually pulled out a jar of Chaos Absinthe and took a sip.Then, with a malicious grin, James said, “The more you resist, the more it pleases me. At worst, I'll hand you over to some guys from the Ten Holy Temples Palaces to care for you, Chosen One.”Marci turned pale and cried out, “Don’t you want to know where your wife is? You want to find her other half, right? I’ll tell you! I’ll tell you everything!”“That won’t be necessary. I’ve already searched your soul. These matters are no longer a secret to me.” James shook his head.Marci stuttered, “You…”James raised his jar and said, “Stay there. I’ll have two of my friends take care of you.”
James said calmly, “She’s a valuable asset. If we use her correctly, it will save us a lot of trouble.”Lesia looked at James and nodded in agreement. ‘Master is becoming more cunning and devious,’ she thought.James's greatest concern was not fighting Yehria. Instead, he was worried about his wife, who was held captive, as well as Light Thea and Abelard.With these distractions, James could not fully commit his strength to battle Yehria. His chances of victory would diminish significantly unless he could forsake Light Thea and Abelard’s safety. However, he simply could not bring himself to be so ruthless.Lesia understood the circumstances. She smiled and offered, “Shall I take over?”Before James could respond, Lesia transformed into a burst of light and darted at Marci.Seconds later, Marci, who was subjected to Hemera and Fennec’s attacks, found her agony intensified when Lesia joined them.James trusted Lesia and had no doubts about her methods. Just as he was about to fi
