“Despicable creature!” a voice shouted as someone rushed straight into the sky, heading towards the sky above; it was Blind Tie.
A peak Renhuang of the Ninth-Realm had dared attack Ye Futian.
All the cultivators from Divine Prefecture cast a glance at Blind Tie. A humongous and boundless handprint appeared above the sky, then blasted down on Blind Tie; it was from a Renhuang of the Ninth-Realm from Haotian Clan. His clothing fluttered, and he had an extraordinary temperament. With a raise of his hand, he managed to suppress the void with a single palm strike.
Blind Tie shouted angrily, and his whole body was radiant, as the divine glory upon him skyrocketed. A divine hammer appeared, smashing into the giant palm that came slamming down. Loud booming sounds were heard as a dull groaning came from above the sky. Although Blind Tie impeded the other’s attack, he was pushed back as well; his upward momentum stopped dead in its tracks.
Buzz, buzz… In the direction of the Heavenly Mandate Academy, several Renhuang of the Ninth Realm levitated into the air. However, at this time, many Renhuang from various principalities of the Divine Prefecture also stepped forward, blocking their way above the void, detaining them.
“This is a little overboard,” Emperor Xi said, as his figure was also moving upward. But, an elder from Divine Prefecture interceded, “It’s just an exchange; there is no need to worry. Rest assured, the Divine Prefecture and the Original Realm is one and we will not harm Emperor Ye.”
As he finished speaking, an invisible pressure of might shrouded the boundless space. Although the alliance of the Heavenly Mandate Academy was a strong one, it paled in comparison with the many forces from Divine Prefecture. Especially at the top level, it was nearly impossible for them to compete with the other.
However, from a distance, cultivators were rushing this way one after the other. They were cultivators from the Lost Clan. As soon as they got wind of the situation here, more and more of them hurried to the Heavenly Mandate Academy. But the cultivators from the Divine Prefecture had isolated the battlefield, nor were they really that concerned about the cultivators from the Lost Clan.
This was not the Shenyi Continent, and without that super grand matrix, the arrival of the Lost Clan meant nothing and changed nothing.
Above the firmament, in the vast expanse of space, the battlefield now stretched over a tremendous distance. After all, when someone at their caliber fought, just a wave of a hand could cover an area thousands of miles wide. The top figure from Infinite Mountains raised his hand, and countless divine swords dropped down from the sky, and every one of them was tremendously monstrous, aiming at Ye Futian with the terrifying sound as they tore through the space.
In the Great Path domain where these divine swords descended, there was some hindrance. But the person who made the move this time was someone in the Ninth-Realm. Therefore, even the Great Path aura in the dominion could not completely stop the divine swords. The stars flowed and shattered some swords, but those divine swords were everywhere in the sky, burying this corner of the sky without end.
“Boundless!” Many looked up. Over there, the Boundless Divine Child was of the Ninth-Realm in this newest wave of engagement. If he took action, it would probably be impossible for Ye Futian to compete with him. Nonetheless, this battle was no longer a fair fight.
Ye Futian was surrounded by a starry light screen, which created an absolute defense. But as that sky full of divine swords rained down, and loud rumbling sounds came out, the stars, including where Ye Futian was, were knocked back, then shattered.
Ye Futian kept retreating while the infinite divine swords between heaven and earth were still attacking forward.
Bang, bang, bang! The divine swords blasted in front of Ye Futian’s body and collided with him. Many divine swords crumpled, but Ye Futian was also knocked backward again as a muffled groan came out of him.
A horrific storm of swordsmanship enveloped this corner of the sky, and the infinite divine swords suddenly stopped in the sky above Ye Futian, but still pointed at him.
Boundless Divine Child was a supreme cultivator in the Ninth-Realm, and he was reputed to be exceptionally talented. He was already a top cultivator in the Boundless Domain, so for him to take action against Ye Futian, who was in the Seventh-Realm, was not an honorable deed.
The cultivators from Heavenly Mandate Academy below watched with increased concern, but Old Ma said, “Don’t worry, he can handle it.”
Previously, he had gone to Four Corner Village with Ye Futian when Ye Futian brought back the body of Shenjia the Great Emperor. Ye Futian would surely bring out the divine corpse in the battle if he were truly in danger. These people would have no way of dealing with that just yet.
However, it was still a bit too much.
“Emperor Ye doesn’t plan to release the true form of the Boundary Wheel for us to see?” All the cultivators from Divine Prefecture stared at Ye Futian. They were waiting for him to reveal all his cards. They wanted to see all of the secrets that Ye Futian was harboring.
However, even now, they still couldn’t figure him out.
“Don’t worry, you have my word that you will not be harmed; we just want to see how strong you are,” the Boundless Divine Child continued. The vast space around them was surrounded by divine light, protecting Ye Futian inside.
Ye Futian glanced at these cultivators, his eyes were cold to the extreme. He stretched out his hand, wanting to release the emperor’s corpse.
“I know that you controlled the body of Shenjia the Great Emperor, but if you are really thinking about using it, you must consider whether or not you would be able to keep it,” someone said nonchalantly, with a slight suggestion of threat. These cultivators from Divine Prefecture were all plotting against Ye Futian for the Great Emperor’s inheritance that he possessed. If Ye Futian were to unleash the body of the Shenjia the Great Emperor, those cultivators who had survived the Divine Tribulation of the Great Path would not simply stand by and watch.
Clearly, Ye Futian understood this as well. He surveyed those people and asked, “So, you are determined to force me to fight today?”
Even now he still didn’t want to offend these principalities from the Divine Prefecture too well. Under the current situation in the Original Realm, what he wanted the most was to cultivate quietly to improve himself. However, if these people from the Divine Prefecture wouldn’t let him go, then he would have no choice but to unite the cultivators from the Lost Clan and fight back.
“Just want to take a look at Emperor Ye’s methods,” said another cultivator from the Ancient God Clan, with divine light lingering. All of them were supreme cultivators. He continued, “Here, today, this may be the best of the best from the Divine Prefecture.”
As Ye Futian surveyed these cultivators, invisible currents from him swept toward the boundless space, moving in at these cultivators. At this moment, these peak figures from the Divine prefecture had a look of curiosity; it seemed that Ye Futian finally decided not to cover up his Boundary Wheel.
Boom, boom, boom… Brilliant divine light surrounded these cultivators as they gathered around Ye Futian. Every one of their auras were beyond terrifying, and their majestic style was second to none. When the divine light of the Great Path bloomed, a horrific aura condensed and emerged; they were ready to take action.
However, right now, above the firmament, there was a sudden shower of divine light. This divine light was incomparably radiant and fell directly on the battlefield as if coming from outside the sky.
“What?” Those top figures from Divine Prefecture looked into the sky; they were completely unaware of anyone coming.
Every divine consciousness now aimed toward the sky and saw that in that sky full of divine light, there was a figure who now walked towards the battlefield below.
In the midst of the endless divine light, a woman emerged, like Jiutian Goddess, who descended with divine glory. She bathed in the warm glow of the sun, with magnificent stature and a face that was incomparably ravishing. She was arrogant, noble, and elegant, as if she was not of this world.
When their eyes beheld her, many cultivators from Heavenly Mandate Academy gasped. They watched the goddess who appeared above the sky with disbelief and shock.
Ye Futian was showered with endless divine glory as he raised his head to look above the firmament. When he saw the goddess who came with this incomparable divine light, he could no longer look away!
