After a moment, James suddenly slapped his forehead and chuckled. “Stephen, Leuko, thank you.”Stephen chuckled. “We owe our lives to you, Master. We’re family. You don’t need to be so polite with us.”Leuko, standing aside, rolled his eyes and inquired, “Has Ms. Thea forgiven you yet, James?”James furrowed his brow, glanced back at Thea in the Forbidden Bloodshade, then shook his head with a rueful smile.Stephen looked at James and said, “We’re aware of what happened. If needed, we could revive Lyla—”James waved his hand to cut him off and sighed softly. “Let’s discuss this later. Don’t bring it up in front of my wife.”Stephen and Leuko exchanged glances, then nodded simultaneously.James frowned and said carefully, “I must make a trip to Zymurgy. We’re in the dark about the Fortieth Heaven. I should investigate a little and see if I can cultivate the Five Spirits.“As for my wife and children, I’ll entrust them to you for now. In the Great Historial Land, you’re invincible
In the Forty-Seventh Realm of Zymurgy, amidst the vibrant hues of a grand temple, enveloped in sacred light. Two flashes of light emerged, and a man and woman appeared.The man possessed a striking handsomeness, yet his messy hair and the ominous purple-red aura swirling around him hinted at a darker nature.His companion, draped in a flowing black robe and a veil of mystery, exuded elegance. Her long hair cascaded down, and her every movement held a captivating allure.It was none other than Morgott and Yehria who thought they had escaped from James.Since their escape to Zymuegy, they had disguised themselves and concealed their auras. With Yehria’s guidance, Morgott lifted 70 seals and fused them with his fragmented spirits. His Demonic Body had been cultivated to near perfection, and he had regained about eighty percent of his prime.Though they could not navigate Zymurgy with ease, their ambition remained unsatisfied.Standing together, they gazed upon the imposing plaque in
Morgott swiftly turned around and fixed his gaze toward Yehria's direction. Behind him was a pile of rubble, yet Yehria was nowhere to be found.Morgott called out, “Are you still alive, Yehria?” The demolished ruin trembled, and a figure emerged.Yehria coughed up blood, her hair unkempt, her complexion ashen, and her body cloaked in thick soil. Upon witnessing Yehria's disheveled appearance, Morgott erupted into laughter.Yehria brushed off the debris, and a swirl of black and white light enveloped her. She instantly restored her to a lady-like appearance.At that moment, she frantically scanned her surroundings, her expression a mix of anxiety and fury, before letting out a piercing scream.“Where is my innate Xyloria Tai Chi Axe? Did you pick it up?”Morgott frowned and shook his head. “I don’t have it. Why would I want it?”Yehria immediately appeared beside Morgott and stared at the Taishi Grand Temple in horror.“Could Taishi have taken it?” Morgott stared at the Tais
After a while, James bowed three times in a row. Just as he was about to take action, the temple’s door swung open.A multicolored divine light emerged from within the Taishi Grand Temple.Observing the unfolding spectacle, the handsome young man stood dumbfounded for a moment before ascending the staircase leading up to the temple. Each stride was deliberate until he reached the open temple door. With ease, he stepped inside, vanishing into the vibrant hues of divine light.A flash of colorful radiance engulfed the temple entrance, and the door was sealed shut, reverting to its original state.Only then did Morgott and Yehria cautiously emerge from their concealment among the ruins. They gazed at the Taishi Grand Temple with bewilderment.After a moment, Yehria asked angrily, “How did that brat waltz in so effortlessly?”Morgott’s eyes sparkled with admiration as he chuckled, “That’s James for you. Even Taishi has to show deference and open the doors for him.”Yehria shot him a
Upon entering Taishi Grand Temple, he anticipated encountering a magnificent sight, a towering statue, or even Silver in person. However, what greeted him was far more dull than his expectations.“Your name is James Caden, right?” Suddenly, amidst the vibrant divine glow, an ethereal voice resonated. It sounded sacred and exquisite, capable of cleansing the mind of impure thoughts.James jolted, swiftly scanning his surroundings before replying, “Yes. That’s me! It’s an honor to be in your presence, Ms. Silver.”“You’re the Chosen One, a disciple of Emperor Yarden, who integrated the Three Treasures and is also the ruler over the Greater Realms. Despite your achievements, you remain remarkably humble. You’re much better in every aspect than those two unsightly beings outside.”James bowed respectfully at her praises. Just as he was about to speak, he was interrupted. “You need not say a word. Wesley has already come to see me and conveyed everything.”James lifted his head abrupt
James was taken aback. He looked in the direction and saw that a familiar yet strange figure appeared in every Wama Energy Ball.Some were killed before, some were subjugated later, and some were still alive but James had never met them.What shocked James the most was that Henry, Quattro, Yemima, Wyot, Maxine, Morgott, and the senior authorities of the Jademora Empire were among them.“Uh…” James’ face twitched. “What tribulation is this?”“It’s the Cholera Tribulation,” Silver said in Kalon’s voice, “It’s strange, right?”James took a deep breath. “I can accept the rest, but my friends…”“An unexpected tribulation is a true tribulation,” said Silver, enunciating each word.When he heard that, James looked like he had been struck by lightning. He stood in the light, stunned. He had already arranged everything, including his friends’ paths and cultivation improvement. Could something else happen that would turn his friends against him?“The third tribulation is the Solemnity Tr
Slowly, James closed his eyes and entered a wandering state.In this state, he seemed to be the wandering Xurraeus. At once, he gained insight into the entire Zymurgy. Then, behind Zymurgy, a huge illusionary gas appeared.The gas couldn’t be seen with the naked eye. It was formless, but James could sense the magnificent and mysterious power in it.Suddenly, James sensed a figure walk out of the formless gas. The figure gradually became clear.It was a quaint elder with a strong build and red hair. As his appearance became clear, James was stunned.It was Yarden.“I didn’t expect you to end up here,” Yarden suddenly said, “How odd.”“Aren’t you already dead?” James asked, “Even your last soul consciousness was destroyed because you gave me the inheritance. You also left two towers behind.”Yarden smiled before turning around. In the formless gas, a familiar and beautiful figure walked out. As she stepped into the void and got closer, James was stunned. He was extremely shocked.
“We created Waitara together!” Frona said, “Because we created him, you guys were born. We let you see everything you want to see and let you enjoy your hopes and possibilities!”“Let’s put it this way.” Yarden continued from where Frona left off, “Your world is like a kite high in the sky, but the start of the string is us.”James took a sharp breath. He thought that Yarden had a lower status than Waitara. He did not expect him to say such overbearing words. Could it be that his status was higher than Waitara's?‘No, that’s wrong. Waitara didn’t exist from the beginning. He was created by them.’ When James thought of that, his face twitched. “So, you guys are the ones controlling everything from behind?”“We can’t control anything anymore.” Yarden smiled and shook his head. “Otherwise, why would we meet you in your world?”“The kite metaphor is great.” Frona glanced at James. “Initially, the start of the string is in our hands, but because the wind is too strong, the kite flew to
