Chapter 4326
James was never one who would choose to kill unnecessarily.
At first, he felt quite burdened when he learned that he had to kill off all living beings in
this universe to pass the trial.
It was only after he had confirmed he did not gain any bad karma that he felt a slight
sense of relief.
Still, there was a grim look in his eyes. He knew that the killing he had just executed was
only a minor part of what he had to accomplish in the first trial.
'The biggest concern for me now is the Yaneiri King, a talented and renowned cultivator
whose name would strike fear in any normal living being.
'If it weren't for the sudden and mysterious disappearance, the Yaneiri King would have
undoubtedly reached the
Caelum Acme Rank and become the first person to do that post the Sky Burial Age,' James
concluded inwardly.
"A man who’s achieved the Boundless for both Quasi and Permanence Acme Rank. Then,
he even went on to reach the Terra Acme Rank. He must be an outstanding cultivator."

James tightened his grip on the sword handle.
Then, he activated the Divine Sense. Soon enough, he found a place where he could
detect an incredibly powerful aura.
James knew instinctively that the aura belonged to the
Yaneiri King. He turned his gaze to the faraway horizon.
Then, he started teleporting toward the direction where he had felt the aura earlier.
'I'm curious to find out what the Yaneiri King is capable of.
'If I fail to kill him this time, I'll have to quickly train and try to achieve higher cultivation
ranks. I need to defeat the man in thirty thousand years.’ James thought.
At the same time, a young man who seemed to be in his mid -twenties was sitting inside a
huge hall located at Mount Yaneiri.
The man was quietly reading an old, yellowed book. He seemed immensely intrigued by
the contents of the book as he would occasionally pause and frown whenever he found
something unexpected.
"Brother.”
A beautiful lady in a white dress walked in through the door just then.

The lady had a tall and voluptuous figure. Her smooth, black hair reached her lower back.
The lady emanated an aura of grace and elegance.
The man placed the book on a nearby table as he got to his feet. His face broke into a
smile as he met the lady's gaze." Zella, you're here."
'You were reading that book again?"
Zella Yanes moved her gaze away from the old book. She had a small frown on her
forehead. "Brother, if you keep
doing this, the people of the Yaneiri Empire will meet their fateful end soon."
The Yaneiri King's expression hardened instantly. After a brief pause, he looked at Zella
and asked, "Did you sense something, Zella?"
Zella shook her head. "It was very vague, and I couldn't make things out clearly. One thing
I can tell with certainty is that it is something ominous. Also, I've sensed that our world
has been projected into a realm."
"What? Our world has been projected into a realm?!” The Yaneiri King was confounded by
her words.
"Mhm." Zella gave a slight nod. "Have you heard of the Path of Heavenly Awakening

before?"
'Yes.”
Zella explained, 'The Path of Heavenly Awakening is a realm that has existed even before
the Sky Burial Age. In the distant future, a cultivator genius from the Human Race will
enter the realm and experience trials of the ultimate-level difficulty. Our world has been
projected into the realm of the Path of Heavenly Awakening. We are currently the
materials that'll help future generations of humans change and improve.”
The Yaneiri King furrowed his brow. 'Theoretically speaking, the realm would only project
the past versions of our world.
It shouldn’t cause any harm to us."
"Things aren't so simple this time,” Zella continued, "It is very likely that our world has
been completely projected into
the realm. The creator of the Path of Heavenly Awakening must have somehow had the
power of connecting the past and the future."
The Yaneiri King looked at Zella, his younger sister.
He had never once doubted her words.
