After a moment, Goyo shook his head in disbelief.“No, it’s impossible for you to be so strong. You’re just a mortal being. There’s no way your strength could improve as rapidly as our Alcide beings.“Even Xanthakos, the first mortal to ascend to Zymurgy, can’t defeat me with only half of his strength!”Listening to Goyo’s desperate and almost hysterical rant, James shook his head with a hint of pity.Despite being the leader of the Alcide beings, Goyo’s foresight, strategy, and knowledge were inferior to Xanthakos, a mortal who had exploited loopholes to ascend and become a leader of the Five Path Emperors.Just then, a clear, feminine voice suddenly came from nearby. “Is your battle over, Honey?”James turned around abruptly. When he saw the beautiful figure, joy immediately flooded his face as he rushed toward her.“You’re awake, Darling!” James exclaimed excitedly, grasping the shoulders of the beautiful figure.Thea smiled and replied, “This turned out to be a blessing in

Inside the Gate of Anonymous, Goyo's soul remained stagnant for a long time. Suddenly, he sighed and said, “Xalvador was right. If we could provide enough time and resources for creatures to develop naturally, the Haleth Realm wouldn’t need to rely on Alcide beings to guide them.”“What are the Five Path Emperors, supreme beings and deities? We created them b because of our self-righteousness and self-deception.“Our original intention was to differentiate between right and wrong, good and evil, to guide creatures and benefit the Greater Realms. Yet, it has become a burden weighing upon the heads of these living beings and a shackle binding them.“It would have been fine if we were simply unappreciated, but instead, we became hated by them, making them foster such resentment.”Goyo closed his eyes once more.“Emperor Stavros was also on point. His words to the supreme beings in my temple were harsh but accurate.“Us, Alcide beings are the true calamity of the Greater Realms and

James’ behavior was so arrogant that it struck fear into the very fabric of the heavens and all worlds.Upon grasping the deeper implications of James’ words, Goyo trembled and pointed an accusatory finger at him.“You... you’re so audacious! Do you genuinely intend to defy the natural order and obliterate everything created by the Waitara Path?”James, unfazed, gently wrapped his arm around Thea’s waist and smiled serenely at Goyo. This simple gesture conveyed his intentions.“You... you are simply…” Goyo stuttered, his entire body shaking as he staggered back several steps. “Is there no room for negotiation?”James remained silent, merely making a gesture that invited Goyo to leave.Goyo suddenly roared, "The Alcide beings have not committed any grave sins. Must you annihilate and disgrace us to such extents?“Don’t you see? It’s not the Alcide beings that oppress the beings of the Greater Realms, but the first batch of your kind that entered Zymurgy!”As he spoke, Goyo clenc

Goyo explained, “However, such actions were severely reprimanded by some God of Creations, who thought it went against the natural order and was excessive. Daoism has three principles—compassion, simplicity, and humility.“The Waitara Path’s suggestion had violated these three principles.James and Thea exchanged glances upon hearing this. They were aware of why the Waitara Path had created humans. However, Goyo’s story gave them a new perspective.Goyo elaborated, “The Waitara Path is an entity comparable to the God of Creations. Even though they disagreed with him, he argued relentlessly with reason.“During the eighty-first Leere Daoism, they had a fierce conflict with them. After that, the Waitara Path sealed the Xyrisia Gate and blocked all passages between the Haleth and Xanadu Realm.“The Nine Caeloros Gods of Nothingness could no longer intervene with the Haleth Realm. Henceforth, the Haleth Realm became independent and he was able to make changes.“He created from nothing, adj

Goyo looked at James and Thea once more.“As for the Greater Realms, they centered around the Tai Chi world, but the position of Tai Chi remained vacant.“This was because the Waitara Path believed that the Tai Chi, who would govern the Tai Chi world, would be the master of all mortals. To be able to guide the mortals in the pursuit of cultivation, the candidate required a god of great virtue and benevolence.”Goyo pointed at Thea and said, “The Waitara Path initially favored you for this position, but you suddenly disappeared, leaving the position vacant.”James looked at Thea and said, “After you disappeared, Yehria took the opportunity."Thea sighed and said, “That happened a little later. Goyo is talking about the arrangements made before the Waitara Path perished.“It’s the same thing, no?” James turned to Goyo and asked, “After everything, did he leave behind a Soremsia?”Goyo replied calmly, “If by Soremsia you mean a Historial being, then of course. Remember, the Waitara Path c
