Chapter 1687 Finished
The lineup Ye Futian brought today already overshadowed the strength of the Heavenly Mandate Dynasty. After all, it was the four top forces banding together.
Naturally, he had not counted the Golden Divine Nation. The Golden Divine Nation, located in the Higher Heavens Realm, was not one of the powers of the Heavenly Mandate Realm. Furthermore, how would they have known that he would come to the Heavenly Mandate Realm?
Golden Divine Nation aside, even the Overlord of the Heavenly Mandate Dynasty could not have anticipated that he would come to attack. Even the Golden Divine Nation did not have the ability to predict the future.
Then there was only one possibility left. The Golden Divine Nation would rather wait for an opportunity while staying at the Heavenly Mandate Dynasty. They were not necessarily waiting for him to come but waiting for an opportunity to deal with him. It just so happened that he attacked at this time.
If the Golden Divine Nation were able to predict the future, then there would be more than just three cultivators. Even if they added three more, it would never surpass the lineup presented by Ye Futian and the others.
Of course, this was because no one knew that he would persuade the four principalities to form an alliance. If the battle were to be waged in another way, such as the battle between the Celestial Gate of Vast Heaven and the Heavenly Mandate Dynasty in which three major characters from the Golden Divine Nation were blending in under cover of another, then it would be enough to determine the outcome of the battle. That would be enough to demand his life.
Three major characters of great power came to the Heavenly Mandate Dynasty just to wait for a chance to kill him.
Clearly, this was an order from the lord of the Divine Nation.
After the slaying of his two descendants, the lord of the Divine Nation was presumably still unwilling to let the matter rest even with the intervention from the Empty Imperial Palace. So he had employed another method to deal with Ye Futian by blending into the Heavenly Mandate Dynasty.
The reality of the situation was quite similar to what Ye Futian had imagined. In the turmoil at the God's relic, the cultivators of the Empty Imperial Palace came and spoke so that none of the top forces were in a position to attack Ye Futian freely.
After all, everyone knew that the Empty Imperial Palace was under the command of Donghuang the Great.
The Golden Divine Nation also had other concerns. Empty Imperial Palace had given a warning. He had to take it into consideration, but how could he forgive the deaths of his sons?
What kind of man was the Overlord of the Divine Nation, that he would really let Ye Futian off the hook with just a few words?
Should his two sons die in vain?
Therefore, he sent men inside the Heavenly Mandate Dynasty. These three cultivators were secretly from the Heavenly Mandate Dynasty. The grievances between Ye Futian and the Heavenly Mandate Dynasty would boil over sooner or later. When the time came for the battle to break out, even Donghuang the Great would be hard-pressed to interfere.
Ye Futian's death would then have nothing to do with the Golden Divine Nation.
Today, Ye Futian happened to come and attack. Once Ye Futian entered the Heavenly Mandate Dynasty, would they not resist? Killing Ye Futian here and now would free them of any future worries.
However, with the arrival of Ye Futian this time, the lineup was frightfully strong. Even with their three strong cultivators, they were at an absolute disadvantage. They did not make themselves known. They had even kept quiet when Yi Tianyu died. They were only waiting for the moment when the other party relaxed their vigilance so that they might vanquish him with one blow.
Killing Ye Futian would cause the alliance to collapse, and then none of these forces in the Heavenly Mandate Realm would dare to keep them.
How strong was the Golden Divine Nation? In the Higher Heavens Realm, the Golden Divine Nation was probably the strongest power outside the Divine Palace. However, because the Divine Palace cared not for the grievances from the outside world, it could be said that Golden Divine Nation was the strongest power in the Higher Heavens Realm. This could be seen by Gai Shishi's daring attack on Ye Futian outside the Divine Palace without any concerns.
There were powerful men in the Divine Nation who acted as divine generals under the command of Donghuang the Great. And now there was no power that could be regarded as a threat to the Golden Divine Nation.
It could be said that even in the times when the old Overlord of the Heavenly Mandate Dynasty was in charge, the Golden Divine Nation would still be able to suppress it.
It was a pity that this mortal blow failed to end Ye Futian's life as she wished, and a spatial divine implement saved Ye Futian's life.
If it were just armor worn on his body, no matter how excellent of an implement it was, Ye Futian would still die. That might of the Way was enough to kill him through the defensive armor. Even a divine implement would still depend on who was using it, and it was impossible to use it against peak Renhuang. However, in that case, the person who used it would die while the divine implement would still stay intact. Unless the realm was higher than the level of the divine implement, it was impossible to destroy the implement through attack only.
Therefore, a spatial divine implement happened to be of use.
Of course, this kind of divine implement did not appear to have a substantial effect, and the efforts in refining one such divine implement could be used to refine many other divine implements. As such, it was very rare.
Even so, Ye Futian was injured through the air, but his injury was not serious.
"One Divine Wheel Ninth Order and two Divine Wheel of the Eighth Order." Ye Futian stared at the opposite side. Such a lineup was truly worthy of him. Even forces at the level of the Golden Divine Nation were able to send this kind of power, waiting for their opportunity at the Heavenly Mandate Dynasty.
Boom! Suddenly, heaven and earth became extremely heavy, and many cultivators felt it was difficult to move. A majestic and massive golden divine elephant suppressed the sky from above and stomped down. The Divine Elephant Emperor himself turned into the golden divine elephant, and an aura of the demonic emperor enveloped heaven and earth. He stepped into the sky and stomped on that cultivator of the Ninth Order from the Golden Divine Nation.
At this time, he couldn't care less about suppressing the inside and outside of the palace. The presence of someone of the Divine Wheel Ninth Order was too great a threat, and could only be dealt with by him. In order to prevent the opponent from having a chance to kill the others, he had to drag the opponent with all his strength to prevent him from threatening the lives of the others.
"Go!" he spat in a strong and powerful voice.
It was for the demonic clan and the cultivators from the Celestial Gate of Vast Heaven to evacuate. Of course, it was not really an evacuation, but to have them leave his attack range. When someone of his caliber unleashed all of his power to attack, he could take down a whole city. But now only one person was his target.
There was no need for him to say anything more. A terrible storm swept out, and it was not up to anyone to decide whether they wanted to go or not.
Ye Futian was inside the Spatial Sacred Hall, and under that violent storm, the Hall was knocked loose and flew out, taking him with it.
The Divine Elephant Emperor did not directly attack but repelled everyone with a shockwave. Otherwise, one stomp from him would kill not only the enemy but also his own people.
In the center of the vast palace ground, the giant foot of the golden divine elephant smashed down, and the world seemed to collapse under this single stomp. Endless storms came down to destroy all the buildings below as they were shattered and pulverized madly at this moment, turning into fragments.
In just an instant, more than half of a majestic imperial palace was shattered and reduced to ruins.
Somewhere far away, the people who watched the battle from the imperial city of the Heavenly Mandate Dynasty were trembling. They had never thought that there would be such a day.
Someone wanted to destroy the dynasty.
The divine general of Golden Divine Nation seemed to turn into a divine god. His body suddenly elongated. As the ancient golden god stood upon the ruins, endless divine light bloomed from him, casting light into the endless space. That breath was truly astonishing.
They were thinking how fortunate it was that Ye Futian was not killed in that blow.
Even Ye Futian secretly sighed in relief. Fortunately, he had reaped a lot in the God's relic, and after studying the divine implements, he found that this spatial implement possessed the ability for defense. Otherwise, facing a Renhuang of the Divine Wheel Ninth Order, he never could have dodged if they attacked suddenly.
After all, no one had thought that there would be such a top-level Renhuang inside the Heavenly Mandate Dynasty.
Accompanied by a loud noise, a golden storm swept out centered on the palace grounds, and all the ruins swept backward. At this moment, some other buildings in the palace that hadn't collapsed were destroyed and spilled outside the palace.
Ye Futian glanced at the battlefield yonder. Although the opponent was a Ninth Order Renhuang, the divine elephant had no problem dragging him down with its strength.
"Don't let them go." Ye Futian said as he glanced at the cultivators from the Heavenly Mandate Dynasty in the distance. Even with the three powerful cultivators from Golden Divine Nation, the strength was still extremely unbalanced. It was very clear to them that there were still three top figures above who were besieging the Overlord.
Now that they were doomed to be defeated, to flee was the only way. If they stayed alive, then they still have a chance for revenge.
But clearly, Ye Futian could not simply watch them go.
"I have divine implement to protect me, don't worry about me," Ye Futian continued.
"Good." As his words fell, demonic emperors and the Renhuang from the Celestial Gate of Vast Heaven attacked at the same time. Simultaneously, demonic emperors also appeared on all sides of the palace, mainly the great demons from the Sky Demon Court. They had surrounded the area according to Ye Futian's prior instructions, to prevent the Renhuang from the Heavenly Mandate Dynasty from escaping.
The Kunpeng Demonic Great Elder and the Golden Wing Roc Emperor aimed directly at those two who were the Divine Wheel Eighth Order, while Hua Jiangshan stayed by Ye Futian's side. Although Ye Futian had ordered them to unleash their attacks, it was impossible to have no one left by his side.
The battlefield instantly expanded and continued to grow larger in the sky above the palace of the Heavenly Mandate Dynasty.
The Heavenly Mandate Dynasty had a very deep background. If it was a single power, the number of Renhuang in the Heavenly Mandate Dynasty, no matter in numbers or realms were definitely the strongest in all of the Heavenly Mandate Realm. If it was not for the alliance of several top forces, it was impossible to destroy the Heavenly Mandate Dynasty.
However, this was destined to be a battle of great disparity. Just like when the Heavenly Mandate Dynasty and the Violet Heavenly Palace besieged the Celestial Gate of Vast Heaven, and the Celestial Gate of Vast Heaven disintegrated right away. But this time, Ye Futian didn't want to give the opponent a chance to escape.
"Master Hua, you go as well. Don't you want to slay the enemy yourself?" Ye Futian said to Hua Jiangshan.
Hua Jiangshan was the clan lord of the Celestial Gate of Vast Heaven, so naturally, he wanted to participate in the fight, but both Ye Futian and Gu Dongliu must be protected.
"Rest assured that we are not so weak. If we can't stop it, I will summon the divine implement for defense," Ye Futian said.
"Very well." When Hua Jiangshan heard Ye Futian say so, he also stepped forward to join the battle.
Even with the three great Renhuang of the Golden Divine Nation joining in, it was still a one-sided situation.
"It's over." In the distance, countless were watching this battle, and the sound of collisions sounded in their ears again and again, causing their hearts to beat violently.
The Heavenly Mandate Dynasty had been dominating the Heavenly Mandate Realm for many years. It was about to meet its end today. Everyone could see it.
Just as Ye Futian had said, the dynasty should be destroyed.
It was just that no one thought that the Heavenly Mandate Dynasty would be destroyed at the hands of a white-haired young man who was new to the realm of Renhuang. He had not even been famous for long!
