“Great!” Yegor laughed heartily. “For so long, we had to follow those pretentious supreme beings’ rules. “We’ve had enough! We’ll form our own group and system and completely ignore them.” Herodias rolled her eyes. “Jamesʼ plan of becoming independent is just a temporary thing. “Once he becomes the Supreme Path, all realms will fall under his governance, including Zymurgy.” “Of course!” Yegor turned his eyes to James. “We should start working on enhancing and refining our skills and powers. “With abundant cultivation resources, I’m sure we living beings won’t lose to Zymurgyʼs beings in terms of power.” “That is why I’ve chosen the group of you.” James said in a deep voice, “It takes more than our current manpower to be enough to bring down Zymurgy. “Therefore, I need everyone to grow stronger. “Some of you have achieved the Daeclon Rank or the Xaeclon Rank while some are close to entering the Xaeclon Rank.” James paced around briefly and stopped before the group agai
Herodias and Yegor looked at James in shock. Everyone else’s expressions also changed drastically.Thea shook her head and reprimanded, “You’re drunk, James! How about we stop here for today?”Morgott stood up and exclaimed, “The Chaos Absinthe is fantastic! It can increase one’s Chaos Essence! Drinking more of it is good…um…”Before he could finish speaking, Thea kicked him.Seeing Morgott sprawled on the ground, the tense atmosphere instantly eased as everyone burst into laughter.Truett pointed at Morgott and laughed, “It’s a blessing to be hit by Thea.”“Right? Not only is she my buddy’s wife, but she’s also the Hokuwn’s ruler. She could trample on anyone she pleases.” Morgott patted his rear and stood up. He glanced at Thea, snatched the Chaos Absinthe on the table, and scooted to a corner.His petty behavior elicited laughter from everyone once more.James clenched his fist and said, “Alright, that’s enough. Let’s focus on the matter at hand. Before deciding whether to st
His words immediately attracted everyone’s attention. Faced with their hostile glares, Morgott shrugged and said indifferently, “Don’t get me wrong. I meant everyone here except James and Thea.”Hearing his provocative words, everyone except James and Thea stood up, eager to fight him.Truett retorted, “Damn it, you devil…”Morgott pointed at Truett and said, “You shouldn’t be angry. You don’t even understand how the Greater Realms are divided, so it’s ridiculous for you to be commenting on rules and regulations.”Everyone was furious at his words but was listening intently for an explanation.Morgott slowly got up from the ground and said solemnly, “From nothingness to From the nothingness comes the Wuia; from the Wuia emerged the Five Primal Evolutions. Thus, from nothingness to existence, death to life, stillness to movement. Ultimately, it came to forming the Xyloria Tai Chi and the Six Xyrisia Sacred Spirits.”“Then, Yin and Yang emerged from the Xyloria Tai Chi, heralding t
Morgott sneered, “They say I am a demon who kills people or supreme beings without blinking an eye. That I’m cruel and would commit heinous crimes.”He raised his voice and shouted, “But! I can say with confidence that no matter where I’ve gone, I’ve never killed a human.”Everyone lowered their heads and remained silent.James narrowed his eyes, seemingly coming to a realization.Morgott’s spirit was undeniably potent. He could possess or manipulate any living entity, and he was immortal. It would not be long before his seal was lifted, and he could take over their bodies to seek revenge. Considering his accomplishments, rebellious nature, and adherence to the principle that the strong should dominate, why would he pursue a bond akin to brotherhood with James, risking everything for him?It dawned on James that Morgott sought comradeship and craved understanding and support. Therefore, he forsook his collaboration with Yehria and chose to side with two humans, including himself
After everyone else had left, Herodias slowly sat down with a solemn expression.Thea and James looked at each other, hesitant to speak.After contemplating, Herodias said, “Tell me the truth, James. Did you receive Emperor Yarden’s inheritance?”James was momentarily stunned but nodded at her question.Herodias further inquired, “Was it all of his inheritance?”James replied uncertainly, “I encountered his remnant soul and am not sure…”Herodias pressed, “Did you obtain his Soul Condensation Art?”Thea looked at James nervously.James was momentarily taken aback before he turned his hand over and summoned a vibrant fire lotus from his palm.Thea’s eyes sparkled with excitement, whereas Herodias covered her mouth in astonishment, her wide eyes reflecting shock.James asked, “Is this the one?”Herodias stood up and channeled a purple-gold Tirta Power into the fire lotus. A translucent figure instantly materialized within the flames. However, it was still and devoid of conscio
Morgott’s original name was revealed to be Havelock Darrow.Thea, James, and Herodias were utterly astonished.The Xyloria Tirta sneered, “He isn’t worthy of being called a hero. He is bloodthirsty and ruthless. His heart harbors excessive hatred and has no consideration for the lives.“He lacks morality and only thinks of himself. Even though the Supreme Path was at fault, he would still have been forced to go into hiding.”The Xyloria Tirta directed his gaze towards James, who was consuming Chaos Absinthe and restoring his Chaos Essence.“This individual has encountered difficult circumstances and endured numerous hardships, yet has been sheltered and mentored by many. Even Emperor Yarden vouched for this being. How could I not acknowledge him?”Thea looked at James with pride, her eyes gleaming with admiration.James said abruptly, “But I have no interest in becoming the Supreme Path. I don’t want to become ruthless and indifferent or be a formless entity devoid of desires an
James looked at her and was about to speak when he saw Herodias suddenly extend her hand to reveal a fist-sized, multicolored pearl.James and Thea were simultaneously shocked.This was the Xyloria Tirta Pearl of the Tirta Sect. Surprisingly, it was bigger, brighter, and more beautiful than the Xyloria Tai Chi Pearl!Nobody would have imagined that Herodias had been carefully carrying such an important treasure on her.Thea said, “Don’t go against your heart, Herodias. If there is even the slightest reluctance to give it up, please don’t force yourself. James would never blame you.”James remained silent, unsure of what to say. Truthfully, he desired the Xyloria Tai Chi Pearl. However, he understood that Herodias would never have offered it up if she was hesitant. He had no intention of acting sanctimonious or pretending to decline, as that would seem insincere. He would never force Herodias to give it up if she was unwilling. According to Morgott, there were six Xyrisia Sacred
Yegor glanced at James. “What are you talking about? Despite my wife’s usual recklessness, she is very thoughtful.“I know she dreams of restoring the glory of the Tirta Sect and eliminating Yehria. Unfortunately, she wasn’t strong enough.“Now, with your help, she could meet her father once last time. She must have gained enlightenment, and the obsession and arrogance in her heart have completely disappeared.“She chose to abolish her cultivation and start over. That in itself might be a blessing under disguise.”He glanced at Thea again. “She knows that despite her thin standing in Zymurgy. Although she has been relying on the foundation left by the Tirta Sect, she probably wouldn’t have lasted long anyway. Perhaps starting over again is the right decision for the Tirta Sect.”James raised his head and said faintly, “Indeed. It’s not just the Tirta Sect that needs a restart. All the creatures in the Greater Realm have strayed for too long. It’s time to return to the right path.
