Chapter 1944: Killing with Abandon
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
In the distance, many strong practitioners looked at the scene in front of them with shock. Although the cultivators of all continents had not come into contact with top figures, having reached the Renhuang cultivation realm, they had seen many geniuses before.
However, they had never seen such a domineering Lower Renhuang.
The people who attacked him were all level seven high-level Renhuangs, and they were also the core members of the Jun family, the top faction of the Penglai Continent. Several strong people surrounded them, and they attacked at the same time with the resonance of their great ways, but they were directly countered and killed. None of them escaped.
When was a Lower Renhuang ever able to have such extraordinary combat strength?
They only felt that they had not seen enough of the world.
“What is that ability of his?” There were cultivators from all continents discussing, shocked by the combat strength Ye Futian had displayed.
“In an instantaneous attack, he exhibited at least three Dao abilities.” Some people were speechless. Moreover, each of the Dao’s abilities was terrifying.
“There’s more than…” the person next to him whispered, and the people agreed.
Swordsmanship, Way of Sonic Wave, Path of the Flame, power of Yin… and that Divine Tree.
Each ability was terrifying. Moreover, his Divine Wheel of the Great Path must have been perfect. No one doubted that. Otherwise, it would be impossible to have this kind of combat strength.
Ignoring them for now, even those who had seen Ye Futian attack before on Eastern Deity Island were deeply awed as well. Although Ye Futian could already kill level-seven mighty figures when he was at Eastern Deity Island, he could do it much more easily now. Or rather, he could do it more directly and domineeringly, crushing and killing them with his most domineering stance.
This gave people a feeling that level sevens were like ants and could be destroyed with a snap of the fingers.
However, in reality, level sevens were already high-level Renhuangs and stood in the upper echelons of Renhuangs. If the whole Divine Prefecture is the base, they would definitely be considered to be at the upper echelons of the Divine Prefecture. But at this moment, they were so fragile.
But who was considered strong would also depend on who they were compared with.
Seeing the fall of those strong people, the Renhuangs of the Jun family also had gloomy faces. Was he that strong? How great would the potential of this power that made waves of chill run down their spines be?
No wonder the Eastern Deity Island would try to protect him, not hesitating to go to war.
Jun Qiuyan was brought to the farthest direction at the back. Those who were killed were his clan members, blood relatives. But because of this incident, they all died in Ye Futian’s hands. He felt extremely complicated emotions. There was hate, endless hatred, and everything was because of Ye Futian.
But also, there was a sense of strong regret. If he was not so self-righteous at first in the Penglai Deity Lake and did not provoke Ye Futian, or no longer pursued that matter afterward, then all this would not have happened…
Seeing the situation in front of him, he was clear that he brought his whole family into a storm, a storm that could have destroyed his whole family.
Moreover, they were already destined to be unable to escape from the situation. They could only continue moving forward.
In the cultivation world, when one was vulnerable, no one will forgive them for their mistakes and show mercy; they would only cut the weeds and dig up the roots to eliminate future problems.
“Kill him!” Jun Xiaoyao, who was in battle, roared. Although he was being held back, he could still see Ye Futian’s side of the battle. It was enough to just split out on a wisp of consciousness. Seeing Ye Futian’s strength, not only did he not want to retreat, he developed a greater determination. Ye Futian must be killed to allow the Eastern Deity Island to exit this battle. If not, the Eastern Deity Island would go to war at any cost for this genius.
Even as a level-nine, after witnessing Ye Futian’s battle with his own eyes, Jun Xiaoyao had to admit that this was probably the most outstanding Lower Renhuang he had ever seen, bar none.
“Must you block me?” He looked at the old man in front of him. The matrix covered the sky and held him in this space. There was no way for him to kill Ye Futian, so he could only order other strong people to do so.
“Jun Xiaoyao, this time, you went the wrong way,” the old man responded. It was true that the Jun family was the top faction of the Penglai Continent, but they still should not choose to start a war outside the Eastern Deity Island. Although he could understand the attitude of the Jun family, after all, in the Eastern Deity Island, many strong cultivators of the Jun family were killed. Jun QiuYan, the son of Jun Xiaoyao, was crippled, so the other side felt that it was imperative to kill Ye Futian.
But the timing was not right. Jun Xiaoyao should not have come so directly. Unless he expected that the Eastern Deity Island would not fight, his presence would be forcing the Eastern Deity Island’s hand. That way, he would make it so that they themselves had no path of retreat.
Now, the Eastern Deity Island had chosen to go to war. The Jun family could not retreat even if they wanted to.
“What is right or wrong?” Jun Xiaoyao said in a loud voice. His voice shook the void, and his Power of the Great Path of Attack descended. Countless sacred halls descended from the firmament, trying to suppress and shatter the space.
Strong cultivators of the Jun family were killed in the Eastern Deity Island. Could the Jun family choose to avoid and not fight because of the Eastern Deity Island?
Even if the two sides clashed, within the rules of the Eastern Deity Island, slaughter was slaughter. They naturally wanted revenge. The cultivation world was built like this. There was no right or wrong, only a difference in perspectives.
“Because of one’s thought, the situation in the Penglai Continent is going to change. Why suffer?” the old man responded. The huge boundless spell matrix erupted with a beam of light that shot towards the heavens, colliding with the descending palace.
On the other side, the battle between Shangguan Hong and Yun Mu was also extremely intense. Both of them were level nines. The sky and the earth broke apart when they fought. Meanwhile, cultivators from the Shangguan Clan and Yun Clan clashed and fought violently.
The boundless heaven and earth on the periphery of the Eastern Deity Island turned into a terrifying battlefield.
After the order of Jun Xiaoyao, more strong cultivators went in the direction of Ye Futian, swarming to kill Ye Futian. Some of them attacked with their Dao abilities through the air, but there were many strong cultivators around to help Ye Futian intercept. There was no lack of mighty cultivators from the Eastern Deity Island. After all, this was their home turf.
Bai Mu looked at the battlefield, thinking of her master’s order. A cold light flashed in her eyes, and she opened her mouth, “Today, the Jun family and the Yun Clan want to kill the esteemed guest of our Eastern Deity Island, breaking the rules of the Eastern Deity Island. Now that the war has started, you all don’t need to care about sentiment anymore. Kill all who resist.”
Out of all the invited Renhuangs, many were not putting in all their effort and hiding their strength; they all held back somewhat. After all, they did not know how this matter would end up, and without the protection of the Eastern Deity Island, if the Jun family wanted to deal with them in the future, it would be a huge hidden danger.
However, Bai Mu’s words seemed to have made it very clear.
Kill all who resist.
In the future, the Jun family would probably cease to exist.
When they thought of this, they also made a decision, and the great will might on their bodies became even more terrifying. They no longer held back and began to kill with abandon.
In one direction, several Renhuangs were heading towards Ye Futian’s direction to kill him, but they were blocked by a line of people who released Flames of the Way at the same time. In an instant, the void of heaven and earth turned into a field of flame, burning mountains and cooking the sea. The horrifying divine beams of flame shot towards the heavens as their opponents seemed to have been directly buried in the sea of flame.
Those strong cultivators also released strong power of the great way, but different flames of the way were distributed in different directions, turning into multiple flames of the way. Those strong cultivators made their seals at the same time, and then a furnace tripod of the great way appeared in that space filled with flames of the way, and the flames of the way refined all existence.
In another direction, the same group of strong people who went towards Ye Futian was stopped. A group of Goddesses of the Eastern Deity Island faced them. They released similar auras, and strong and extreme life force was released from their bodies. Several queens released Ancient trees of the great way; those were their divine wheels. They rolled towards the crowd, instantly flooding the space.
“I’m afraid the Jun family won’t be able to kill him.” The bystanders would always be the most clear-minded. The strong cultivators of various continents were all watching the battle in the distance and could see the entire battle situation clearly. The Eastern Deity Island’s side was at ease as this was their home turf after all. From an onlooker’s point of view, the Eastern Deity Island had the absolute initiative. They could almost be considered to have been firmly in control of the battle. If they did not allow a group of people to go towards Ye Futian previously, those strong cultivators might not have been able to reach him anyway.
From the current situation, one could see that after Ye Futian killed that group of strong cultivators, he stood alone in the center of the battlefield. Except for some ripples of wind from Dao abilities that rolled towards him, no Renhuangs or attack could come to his side; they were all cut off.
This created a rather strange situation. Ye Futian stood there, and no one could fight. Standing in the center of the battlefield, he seemed to have nothing to do…
Ye Futian himself was also depressed. The Eastern Deity Island arranged properly and defended his side so well it was impenetrable. But this made him idle in the middle of the storm. He had nothing to do as he watched the battle play out around him.
Behind him, Beigong Ao and Emperor Helian were here as well. They were protecting him to his left and right. But in reality, they knew that with Ye Futian’s abilities, he no longer needed their protection. Beigong Ao could possibly still be stronger than him, but Emperor Helian was definitely no match for Ye Futian. The previous battle could already show this clearly.
Ye Futian’s gaze swept to one of the battlefields, then his body moved. Although the Eastern Deity Island was protecting him, he could not stand here to watch the battle. With his strength today, not many people from the opposing side could directly threaten his life. As long as the strongest people were held back, there was no threat to him.
His body turned into a ray of light. In one direction, the mighty cultivators of both sides were clashing when they suddenly felt a powerful sword will descend. The expressions of the strong fighters of the Jun family all changed. When they turned their heads, they saw a blade of light flash past. After that, blood spurted out as multiple people were killed consecutively.
However, Ye Futian’s body did not stop. That gorgeous blade of light shot through the void. It appeared on another battlefield in an instant. Another splendid divine blade of light descended. Sounds of slashing could be heart continuously as blood splattered in the void. Several more Renhuangs were directly killed as the blade of light was too fast.
In the distance, those who watched the battle only saw a divine blade of light weaving through the battlefield, and wherever that light passed, blood would appear, accompanied by the fall of Renhuang realm powerhouses.
This made their hearts quite unsettled. The Renhuangs were like ants and were being slaughtered with impunity. In just a few moments, they did not know how many were killed by Ye Futian.
If this continued, the Renhuangs of the Jun family would be decimated!
