James had been constantly on the run. He had lost track of how long he spent escaping and his mind grew progressively hazier.
Finally, when endurance failed him, he came to a halt. The moment he stopped, his legs gave way in an abandoned universe
within the Endlos Void.
Time passed by unnoticed until his consciousness gradually returned. Upon rousing, he experienced a pervasive discomfort
throughout his body.
Zeloneth wielded formidable strength, even a seemingly effortless strike broke through James’ defenses.
Nevertheless, he took the countless blows that came his way. His flesh was bruised all over, his bones lay shattered in multiple
locations, and he nearly lost his ability to use his Path Powers. While he survived this ordeal, the injuries he sustained were
undeniably grave.
Upon regaining consciousness, he retrieved a stalk of Caelum Acme Herb without hesitation.
Seated cross-legged on the ground, he absorbed the potent energy of the Caelum Acme Herb.
This energy entered his body, painstakingly repairing his injuries. Gradually, fractured bones began to mend, flesh and blood
regenerated, and all his external wounds healed swiftly. However, his Path Power had been severely depleted, and restoring it
would take a long time.
After James’ injuries had partially healed, he diligently set up a time formation around himself, isolating himself within to
recuperate. This time, he utilized the many Empyrean Herbs he gathered and cultivated for an extended period before his
injuries eventually fully healed.
He then dissolved the time formation and checked the flow of time. He discovered an astonishing 10,000,000 years had elapsed
in the outside world.
His brow furrowed as he spoke, “Ten million years... I wonder how Waleria is faring.”
10,000,000 years was definitely a lengthy period of time.
“I’m sure the Yhala Realm must have opened eons ago. If the Daemonium Sect had aimed to kill her, she would have perished
ages ago,” James mused with a tinge of regret. Waleria embodied true goodness yet had become a casualty of the Daemonium
Sect’s brutality. He wished to save her, but his capabilities fell woefully short. He had nearly met his own demise in the process.
“Now, what’s my next step?” James pondered with furrowed brows.
After pausing for a moment, he decided to inquire about Waleria’s fate. Even if she had indeed met her end, he wanted to
confirm it for himself. Shrouding his aura and assuming a different appearance, he activated the Blithe Omniscience and
departed from that vicinity.
Soon, he arrived in a universe. There, he discreetly probed for any trace of the Daemonium Sect. Strangely, he
encountered a complete lack of information. It appeared that across the period of 10,000,000 years, the Daemonium Sect had
remained inactive. He found no updates from the Yhala Realm either.
Initially, news of the Yhala Realm had spread far and wide. Many powerhouses from the Theos District had rushed to seize
opportunities for themselves and fortune when the realm was opened. However, after the passing of time, those opportunistic
powerhouses had all departed.
James wandered through various universes on the fringes of the Theos District, seeking information about the Daemonium
Sect’s activities and searching for news about Waleria’s state. After traversing multiple universes, he sensed an aura that was
both recognizable and enigmatic.
“Saachi?”
Hiding in the shadows, James observed Saachi’s in a universe, as she entered a planet. He discreetly followed her.
Clad in a black gown, Saachi remained as beautiful as ever. However, a hint of Demonic Energy enveloped her, an aura capable
of unsettling the hearts and minds of others. A mere glance was enough to induce restlessness.
“Elder.”
Saachi appeared before a spiritual mountain. As soon as she reached the entrance, numerous disciples from the Daemonium
Sect emerged, kneeled, and respectfully addressed her.
