Chen Yi seemed to have detected Ye Futian’s hesitation and said, “Don’t worry. The Demon God Temple is located in a restricted area in the mountain. Even the Chief can’t do anything about it. No one can approach the restricted area. With all the demons there, people from the Great Yan and the Lingxiao Palace wouldn’t dare to act recklessly. Besides, I can get myself out safely if I encounter danger.”
Ye Futian looked at Chen Yi, who appeared to possess a Light-elemental magic weapon and unparalleled speed.
“How did you know the chief can’t do anything about the Demon God Temple?” Ye Futian asked Chen Yi. It seemed that Chen Yi knew more than he should.
“Why would the Demon God Temple still be in the secret zones if the Chief knew what to do? He would have pillaged it a long time ago. You don’t believe that the Chief of the Domain Chief’s Manor in the Donghua Domain is some nice man, do you?” Chen Yi said, “All the chiefs of the 18 domains in the Divine Prefecture are extraordinary old monsters who have lived for long. They have tremendous influence and aim to advance to the highest cultivation plane to free themselves from the Heavenly Path’s restraint. They would not hesitate to exploit anything that could be beneficial to cultivation.
“Few things in the world remain appealing to them. They only care about the path to the pinnacle.”
Ye Futian nodded in agreement. Chen Yi had a point. Moreover, Ye Futian could tell from this incident that Chief Ning was a crafty, devious, and hazardous person who could kill with underhanded means. These old monsters were not good people for sure.
However, Ye Futian was still secretly suspicious even though Chen Yi made a good point. This prominent figure who had become a legend in the Donghua Heavens many years ago gave Ye Futian a mysterious feeling. Ye Futian couldn’t easily figure out Chen Yi’s thoughts.
“There is no need to keep thinking about it. Why would I help you if I intended to harm you? Few people in the Donghua Heavens can impress me, and you are one of them. We can go anywhere in the Divine Prefecture if we work together,” Chen Yi said with a smile. Ye Futian nodded and stopped hesitating. He said, “Let’s go.”
After that, they rushed through the mountain in the direction of the Demon God Temple. In the meantime, Ye Futian took out the Zimu Yuanyang Mirror to communicate with Xia Qingyuan. He asked her to stay safe and not to go to any dangerous places.
They started to feel the rhythm again as they approached the area. Hearts palpitating, Ye Futian and Chen Yi could hear the pounding sound that came from their chests. They knew they were close to the destination.
“What kind of place is the Demon God Temple? Why does it make our hearts beat rapidly?” Ye Futian asked Chen Yi as though he intended to assess how much Chen Yi knew about the Demon God Temple.
“Are you asking me?” Chen Yi turned back and looked at him with a smile. Ye Futian didn’t push for an answer.
“Let’s check it out there,” Chen Yi pointed at a mountain in front of them. Then they climbed to the top of the mountain and looked into the distance. The Demon God Temple sat on the barren land surrounded by the black divine mountains. It seemed to be a short distance away, yet also looked unreal and elusive. Plenty of demonic beasts were struggling to approach the temple while letting out deep bellows. Their bodies were changing and their blood boiling. With eyes glowing red and hearts pounding violently, they were desperate to get close to the Demon God Temple.
The Black Wind Condor was among the demonic beasts. It darted a glance at the mountains afar where Ye Futian was at this moment.
“Boss, the Demon God Temple must contain some divine item that could make the demonic beasts evolve and transform. I can feel its huge impact without getting near it.” Ye Futian’s eyes sparkled as an idea occurred to him. Many powerful Demon Emperors were also moving toward the Demon God Temple. But they all acted with extra caution as if the closer they got to the Temple, the slower they walked and the stronger their Demonic Qi became.
“Be careful,” Ye Futian transmitted his voice back to the Black Wind Condor. He gazed at the area of the black Divine Mountain where a lot of Demon Emperors and Renhuangs were gathering. The battle hadn’t broken out yet. Human cultivators who entered the secret zones were still there.
Besides, he also saw the strange young man who attacked them before.
Ye Futian felt a chill run down his spine. It looked like that the attack before was arranged by someone.
Only the Domain Chief’s Manor had the capacity to make it happen.
It was a scheme to murder Ye Futian and other cultivators from Wangshen Watchtower. They would have died in the hands of Ling He, Yan Dongyang, and others if Ye Futian didn’t employ his full strength.
Ye Futian couldn’t extend his divine consciousness very far in this area. The rhythm would shatter it. Ye Futian could only rely on his eyes.
“Do you know why there are demonic beasts in the secret zones?” Ye Futian asked Chen Yi. He wondered how much Chen Yi knew about the Domain Chief’s Manor and the secret zones.
“I heard a little about it,” Chen Yi answered, “Rumor has it that the secret zones are more than a trial field for cultivators from the Domain Chief’s Manor of the Donghua Domain. It is also a giant Sealed Land. But it’s unclear what exactly is being sealed here. Perhaps the targets are these demonic beasts. The secret zones become their prison and keep them here.”
“The secret zones are sealing in something?” Ye Futian thought to himself. While gazing at the front, he heard a howl of anguish. A cultivator in the Renhuang Plane exploded surprisingly. The scene was startling and grisly as the blood sprayed everywhere. It seemed that the Renhuang blew up for not being able to withstand the rhythm.
“So terrifying.” Ye Futian narrowed his eyes. He could feel the relentless rhythm from afar. His body might actually burst apart if he went too close.
“Demonic beasts have stronger Blood Force and can resist it better. It’s tough for human cultivators to approach the Demon God Temple,” Chen Yi explained to Ye Futian. Ye Futian nodded. The demonic beasts had potent Blood Force and were usually a cut above human cultivators at the same level. However, they also had significantly inferior comprehension skills and mostly relied on their instincts.
One human cultivator was the closest to the Demon God Temple. It was Desolation from the Desolate God Palace. The frightening black energy currents flowed around his body. Every step he took trembled the ground and sterilized the field. While treading forward, his heart was also palpitating, and his blood was surging and roaring inside as if it were about to rush out of his body.
Many big demon beasts were around and gazing at the Demon God Temple. Why did the abnormal changes suddenly happen at the Demon God Temple?
Would this be an opportunity for them?
They had been imprisoned in the total darkness here for so many years, being trampled upon and experimented on by human cultivators at will. There was no way for them to break the seal and escape.
Ye Futian’s heart was still pounding rapidly. Standing on top of the mountain, he started to feel that the secret zones were nothing ordinary. Thinking of that, he released the energy currents of the Great Path from his body and spread it to the boundless space. His eyes also became strange and eerie. In an instant, a shocking scene came into his sight and made his heart beat violently in his chest.
“That is…” Ye Futian was astounded. Staring straight ahead, he saw a magnificent view. The whole world appeared to be fake, created by the Great Path. The energy flowing in the world was the Grand Seal Great Path. As the Divine Light of the Seals glowing brightly, numerous sealing runes became visible.
He couldn’t have a clear view from the sky. But it looked like there was a divine item. The space of the entire secret zone was sealed off as though the endless secret zone was a formidable Great Path domain of Grand Seal.
The Demon God Temple was even more shocking. Ye Futian previously thought that the Demon God Temple belonged to the Demon Clan. But now, he found out that the Demon God Temple was also shrouded by the Divine Light of the Seals. Like a mix of patterns of the Great Path, the Grand Seal Great Path closed off the area with the Demon God Temple at the center.
It was too blurry for his real eyes to see. He could only sense it vaguely with his divine eyes.
This is the Consummate Great Path, Ye Futian thought to himself. The Consummate Great Path formed an Absolute Great Path domain and created a separate space, seemingly ordinary yet unique. Only people in the same cultivation level could sense its existence.
Ye Futian happened to be able to sense and see it.
Rat-a-tat. The rhythm grew stronger and stronger inside the Demon God Temple, making the cultivators’ hearts pound more violently.
“Watch out.” A Renhuang with bulging blue veins yelped when he felt that his blood was about to rush out. Immediately, with a fizz, his blood sprayed out of his body. He let out a piercing cry in agony and was turned into a pool of blood.
“This…” Everyone around was palpitating with fear. Ye Futian’s eyes were fixed on the sealed divine temple. What on earth was inside?
