Ye Futian drifted in the direction of the Heavenly Scroll that was held in the hand of the Great Emperor. The Heavenly Scroll seemed to have been transformed by the starlight as well, appearing elusive and untouchable.
Ye Futian’s consciousness glide towards the Heavenly Scroll, surrounded by the divine light of the Great Path. Just as he communicated with the imperial stars before, he wanted to see if the same method could be used to communicate with the Heavenly Scroll. However, the Heavenly Scroll was still covered in endless divine brilliance, quietly resting in the hand of the figure that was Ziwei The Great, without the slightest change.
The cultivators in the starry sky had seen Ye Futian’s action, and a surprised look crossed their faces as their eyes continued to focus on the Heavenly Scroll.
Everyone knew that Ye Futian was trying to solve the mystery of the starry sky and wanted to find the eighth imperial star. But why did he gravitate toward the Heavenly Scroll? Had he discovered something?
“Emperor Ye,” someone in the starry sky asked, “is there any secret in the Heavenly Scroll?”
Ye Futian’s eyes were still fixed on the Heavenly Scroll. He said to the others while his back was turned, “The eight Great Emperors under Ziwei the Great have found seven imperial stars. The eighth imperial star does not seem to exist in the starry sky. My guess is that all eight Great Emperors didn’t need to transform the power of inheritance as imperial stars; why can’t it be transformed as the Heavenly Scroll?”
He did not conceal anything from the others. All the cultivators were in the starry sky, and everyone could see everything he was doing. He couldn’t hide anything, and he didn’t want to hide anything either. Anyone who could uncover the secret of Ziwei the Great’s inheritance would have to rely on their own abilities, fair and square.
“You mean that this Heavenly Scroll might be the inheritance left by the eighth Great Emperor?” asked another.
“This is just a speculation and has not been confirmed.” Ye Futian responded, “We can try together and see if we can unlock the mystery of the Heavenly Scroll.”
“Very well.” Hearing Ye Futian’s words, all the cultivators flickered their way in the direction of the Heavenly Scroll, releasing their own consciousness. They each explored the secret of the Heavenly Scroll, trying to see if they could produce any resonance with it.
The seven cultivators who were communicating with the imperial stars also looked there and seemed to have some thoughts. Ye Futian glanced at them as he drifted towards higher ground and said to them, “Can you please continue and let me observe some more? I feel that there is something else missing, and these seven imperial stars are the key.”
The seven cultivators didn’t say much when they heard what Ye Futian had to say. They continued to communicate with the imperial stars, trying to induce the divine light to descend.
Ye Futian continued to observe the starry sky, the starry sky map, the positions of the seven imperial stars, and the direction that the imperial shadow was facing.
His eyes were unusually bright, and in his mind, the starry sky was spinning as a picture seemed to start emerging. This picture of the starry sky evolved on its own, but Ye Futian could detect a sense of pattern within it, which quickened his heartbeat.
He tried it just now, and not just him, but all the other cultivators had tried as well. There was no way to unlock the mystery of the Heavenly Scroll. This Heavenly Scroll seemed to exist in a surreal space and could not be pried. It seemed that something else was still missing.
“Everyone,” Ye Futian was in the air and looking at the seven, “could you please stop for a moment and change your position to communicate with the imperial stars?”
Gu Dongliu, Blind Tie, and Luo Su were the first to listen to him. They stopped communicating with the imperial stars. After that, the other four cultivators also stopped and moved towards Ye Futian. One of the Renhuang in black asked, “Why change the position?”
“The place where the Heavenly Scroll is located may be the place where the seven stars converge, so I have an idea, and I hope you can try it out with me. As for whether it will work or not, I cannot guarantee,” said Ye Futian.
When the other four heard what he said, they did not say anything but were willing to work with him. One of them said, “How to change the positions?”
Ye Futian looked at the space below the Heavenly Scroll as seven rays of brilliance fell from him, landing on seven locations. Then, he assigned each of the seven people as they went to the position assigned. Even though four of them were extraordinary cultivators in their own right, at the moment, they were willing to listen to Ye Futian this one time. There was no loss even if they failed because if they succeeded, they could unlock the mystery of the starry sky.
Therefore, all of them were hoping that Ye Futian would succeed.
“We can start now,” Ye Futian looked at them and said. The seven closed their eyes and began to communicate with the imperial stars, as they were familiar with the drill by now. Soon, above the firmament, there were divine lights of the Great Path descending, and the divine light of all seven imperial stars began to fall, connecting with them.
This time, they were not standing directly beneath it but at an angle. The divine light seemed to cross and change positions. However, under the shocking gaze of many, the seven divine rays of light actually finally stopped at the same point.
“Seven stars converging.” The heart of those who were in the distant starry sky skipped a beat. This sight was an absolute wonder.
At this moment, they had a feeling that perhaps Ye Futian was right.
Because the place where the seven stars were converging just happened to be the palm of Ziwei the Great, the location of the Heavenly Scroll.
The seven divine lights fell on the Heavenly Scroll, and a magnificent dazzling sight appeared from the Heavenly Scroll. The rays of divine light passed directly through the scroll and landed on those seven figures simultaneously. Therefore, an amazingly splendid sight now appeared under the stars.
At this moment, the pages of the Heavenly Scroll began to turn, and infinite characters were floating out from the scroll, spreading to the endless starry sky in an instant. Countless divine lights shot into the sky, illuminating the starry sky world.
“The Heavenly Scroll is open!” Everyone’s hearts were beating quickly. Ye Futian was right; he had found the inheritance of the eighth Great Emperor.
This volume, located in the most conspicuous position, was also the most difficult inheritance to decipher.
Ye Futian was indeed a god-given genius. He had deciphered the Heavenly Scroll, and who knows what changes would happen to this starry sky world.
“Look there!” someone exclaimed. They saw that when the Seven-Star Divine Light passed through the Heavenly Scroll, it floated towards that seven figures with infinite characters, descending directly upon them. At this moment, the divine light on the seven was even more dazzling and radiant.
“Could it be that what was hidden in the Heavenly Scroll was the true inherited ability of the seven imperial stars?” The hearts of all the cultivators were beating wildly. If so, this was probably the only opportunity–the time when the Heavenly Scroll was opened.
“Ye Futian!” Someone’s attention went to Ye Futian. He gave this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to Luo Su, a cultivator from Zixiao Domain of Divine Prefecture.
The inheritance of the Great Emperor was given away like this, which made others felt quite sorry for him.
And Goddess Taihua, who saw all this played out before her, felt disquieted in her heart. An emperor-level inheritance was given to Luo Su?
This opportunity belonged to her, but she gave it up so easily that a great opportunity now had slipped away.
However, Ye Futian himself didn’t seem to feel anything, as if he didn’t care about this inheritance at all.
His eyes continue to focus on the Heavenly Scroll as the Seven-Star Divine Light fell and gathered on the Heavenly Scroll. The scroll opened, and changes occurred. The divine light shot towards the firmament, and in an instant, the entire starry sky lit up, and stars filled the sky.
The shadow of the Great Emperor seemed to become clearer at this moment, gradually coming into focus as it materialized. An eternal aura came from the firmament, as a true Might from Heaven.
“Ziwei the Great.”
Standing under the starry sky, everyone could feel that supreme majesty, as if the Great Emperor’s Will had awakened.
Has the mystery of Ziwei the Great been deciphered? many thought secretly. Before, many guessed that the eighth imperial star was the key to unlock the mystery of the starry sky. Now, it turned out that the eighth imperial star was not what they thought it was, but the secrets of the eight Great Emperors beneath Ziwei the Great had been unlocked.
Then, would the mystery of Ziwei the Great be revealed?
…
At this time, inside Ziwei Imperial Palace, the starlight circulated, as the entire hall seemed to be changing.
The Palace Lord of Ziwei Imperial Palace opened his eyes, and all the cultivators sitting inside the palace trembled. A voice was heard saying, “The inheritance of the eight Great Emperors has been deciphered. The starry sky is lit up, and Ziwei the Great’s figure is becoming ever clearer.”
Buzz! The starlight was flowing, but the cultivators inside the palace had disappeared. In the void, the voice of the Palace Lord of the Imperial Palace master said, “How was it deciphered?”
“The seven stars gathered and shine their light upon the Heavenly Scroll, causing the Scroll to change,” someone responded. “That Scroll was the inheritance left by the eighth Great Emperor.”
“Who did it?” another voice asked, but it was so elusive it was hard to tell where it came from.
Outside, the cultivators who came here from the Original Realm changed the expression on their faces at this moment. They looked up at the sky and saw that the firmament seemed to be changing, and the whole world seemed to be changing as well.
“What’s going on?” Someone whispered. Suddenly it turned into a world of starry sky. In it, they saw an infinite number of stars, as if they were in the segment, rather than just on a star.
“Ziwei Imperial Palace lit up just now. What’s happening?” Those top cultivators stared in the front. They felt an unusual aura. Many cultivators from Ziwei Imperial Palace seemed to have left, making their way somewhere else.
From the Imperial Palace in the distance, cultivators were flickering their way here. Cultivators from the outside stared at the front, and someone murmured, “Has the inheritance of the Great Emperor been deciphered?”
Even figures of great capacities couldn’t help but become quite excited. Their emotions fluctuated greatly. What would happen if the inheritance of Ziwei the Great were to be revealed to this world?
All the cultivators from the Imperial Palace seemed to have rushed there.
“Should we go too?” someone asked.
“Let’s go.” Those cultivators moved in the direction of Ziwei Imperial Palace. At times like this, they couldn’t be concerned about so many other things!
