Upon hearing that, James was stunned. He didn’t expect the situation to affect all the worlds.At that thought, he asked, “So, the Five Path Emperors of the Forty-Ninth Heaven are waiting for his return too?”“We don’t know what their thoughts are. We rarely met them.” Yarden shook his head. “The Five Path Emperors wanted to control all the worlds after Waitara’s disappearance. If they were waiting for Waitara’s return at first, they might not want him to return anymore after getting a taste of power.”When James heard that, he fell into deep thought.“We have said everything that should be said.” Frona looked at James. “You can decide on what to do. Whether or not you want the Supreme Path is your decision.”“Why is it me?” James suddenly asked.Yarden and Frona exchanged glances before laughing.“Please answer my question directly.” James looked at the two.“We arranged it intentionally.” With a smile, Yarden said, “But we have determined that you aren’t Waitara’s body that h
Upon hearing that, Silver laughed.“You’re cunning. Do you think I will fall for your tricks?“I’m just a Grim Reaper. I’m between the tangible and intangible. What’s there to see?”Then, the light before James flashed. At once, a few dazzling energy balls appeared.There were a few axes surrounded by black-and-white gas, an amethyst-red spear with malevolent energy, a dazzling pearl, and a violent spirit wandering around in the energy ball.James’ face twitched. He frowned. “Ms. Silver, you know what I want. Why did you give me so many all at once? What are these?”“Are you acting dumb?” Silver teased, “Don’t tell me that you didn’t hear what the two were talking about after hiding in the void outside the temple for so long.”James finally understood what she meant. He didn’t expect Silver to give him all this.With Kalon’s voice, Silver said, “I’ve given you everything. You can decide on what to do with them. At least I have completed my mission. It’s time for me to seek my d
“Thank you, but you have things to solve right now!” said Silver.Then, the light before James flickered. A huge screen appeared.The screen showed the scene of the Forty-Seventh Heaven. A few strange monsters were hiding in each corner.Some had a human head with a beast body, some looked like a human but with a beast head, some had wings, some had a huge body but without facial features, some had facial features but without limbs, some were shaped weirdly, some looked a bit like a human, while some looked a bit like a beast. They looked terrifying. It was the first time James met such monsters after entering Zumurgy.With a frown, James asked, “What are those?”“Primal beings,” Silver said deliberately, “They’re known as the unorthodox factions and sects.”Upon hearing that, James widened his eyes. “Unorthodox factions and sects? Does that mean they’re the trump card of Tai Chi?”“Don’t look down on them,” Silver said, “They’re powerful. Initially, they were sealed in Netherfo
Outside the Taishi Grand Temple, Yehria and Morgott buried themselves in the ruin, only showing their eyes. They kept staring at the entrance of Taishi Grand Temple. It was as if they wanted to see through the gate.“Why isn’t he coming out?” Irritatedly, Yehria asked, “Did he die inside? That bastard doesn’t deserve it.”Morgott clicked his tongue. “James has gained the Three Treasures Integration. He can’t die.”Then, Yehria glared at him.“Why must you argue with me?”Upon hearing that, Morgott asked, “Is it that hard to accept the truth?”“I want an attitude. Do you understand?” Furiously, Yehria shouted, “Morgott, you should stay single forever. A woman who becomes your partner will die out of anger.”Morgott said, “You aren’t a woman. You’re a fish.”Yehria was at a loss for words.“He’s out,” said Morgott suddenly.At that, Yehria, who was furious, turned to look at Taishi Grand Temple. Then, she laughed.“He’s out! James, you’re doomsday has arrived!”Morgott looked
James crossed his arms before his chest. With a smile, he looked at Yehria. “Are you done? If you are, surrender yourself and let my wife remove your fish scale.”Seeing that James was about to make a move, Yehria took a few steps backward with vigilance. Then, she snorted.“James, do you really think you’re invincible now that you have the Three Treasures Integration? You still have a long way to go.”Then, she waved her hand and shouted, “Quince, attack him!”Nothing happened.James thought Yehria was a joke. A bit annoyed, he said, “Are you done with your performance? It’s my turn now.”After that, James reached out his hand. A terrifying clear Innate Energy turned into an illusionary hand. It headed straight to Yehria.Right then, fear could be seen in Yehria’s wide eyes. She shrieked, “Quince, you’re a bastard—”A loud explosion interrupted Yehria’s roar.In the next second, the illusionary palm James shot out was slashed into halves by a black sword.James stumbled back
James looked at him. He smiled but remained silent. This big guy seemed pretty arrogant, but James was not sure about his true strength. Nevertheless, he found himself looking forward to it.“I don’t like idle chatter,” Quince said coldly. “Since you’re so stubborn, let’s settle things with a fight!”In the blink of an eye, he swung his leg toward the huge sword sticking out of the ground, sending it flying forward with a hefty swipe. A terrifying Sword Energy blasted straight at James with a deafening roar. It was intense and murderous.Boom! Under another earth-shattering explosion, dust clouded the air where James had been standing. The dark Sword Light erupted abruptly, sending shockwaves rippling in every direction, even shaking the Taishi Grand Temple violently.“Hmph, I thought you were something, the Virtuous Faction supposed...” Before Quince could even finish his sentence, a sacred lotus blossomed amidst the swirling dust, with James seated in a lotus position atop it. Th
“Ah, it seems I overestimated you.” James shook his head with some regret. “I thought the unorthodox factions might possess some Supernatural Power, but it seems—”Quince interjected, “You...”“But hey, not bad,” James joked. “You managed to break through my Spiritual Providence and escape successfully from my Three Treasures Formation. With just those two feats, your strength is enough to dominate most of the Soma Daeclon Rank powerhouses in Zymurgy. The unorthodox factions indeed have some talents. Since you want a straightforward battle, I’ll accompany you to the end.”James dispelled the rotating Three Treasures and the massive sacred lotus he sat on. The next moment, a dazzling rainbow holy light flashed with a casual wave of his hand, and a divine sword enveloped in myriad colors appeared in his hand.Quince stared in shock as James held the divine sword and slowly descended. Suddenly, a fear rose in his heart that pierced his soul. Ranking in the top ten among the seventy-tw
James furrowed his brow and asked, “What do you mean, Ms. Silver?”At the words, Quince’s cheeks twitched with a face full of shock and horror. He was about to speak when Silver’s ethereal voice echoed in the void. “Those from the unorthodox factions and sects are elusive cultivators. They can easily change their forms and conceal their auras. It’s not easy to catch a hint of them, let alone one of the seventy-two unorthodox factions. It would be a pity to kill him! There are ways to uncover their secrets.”As the words fell, several thick and sturdy flashes of rainbow lightning suddenly descended within the myriad-colored light in the void and engulfed Quince.With Quince’s screams echoing, James showed a bewildered expression. “I thought the Primal Spirits couldn’t intervene. What’s this supposed to be?”With a flash of the myriad-colored divine light, the rainbow lightning and Quince were all dragged into the Taishi Grand Temple.Then, the ethereal voice of Silver echoed in the
