Chapter 2540: Attack
Divine Prefecture, Taichu Domain This was one of the more powerful domains of the 18 domains of the Divine Prefecture.
Inside the Taichu Domain, although there were no Ancient God Clan level powers, there was the holy land of cultivation—the Holy Land of Taichu.
The Holy Land of Taichu was a place where knowledge of the Great Paths was passed down. Through its countless years of history, a large number of phenomenal individuals had emerged from there, and it had groomed generations of powerful cultivators. Today, many of the apex cultivators of the Taichu Domain came from the Holy Land of Taichu.
Within the Taichu Domain, even the Domain Chief’s Manor had to respect the Holy Land of Taichu.
The Holy Land of Taichu was located at the core land of the Taichu Domain, occupying an extraordinary segment of the land, where the soil was fertile for thousands of miles. Inside the Holy Land of Taichu, there were many cultivation courts. Each cultivation court was extremely powerful, and if they were put outside, they would all be top-tier organizations.
At this time, inside the Holy Land of Taichu, it was extremely quiet inside a cultivation court where divine mists blurred the view. A figure was sitting atop the stone platform inside the mist, deep in cultivation with his eyes closed.
Ye Futian had seen this person before. He had attacked Ye Futian before. He was the ruler of the Holy Land of Taichu—Taichu Saint Emperor. He had overcome the second Divine Tribulation of the Great Path years ago and had become extremely powerful. Back then, even with Shenjia the Great’s divine frame, Ye Futian was still nearly killed by him. If it weren’t for the Master intervening, he would likely not be able to escape from that battle.
As the Taichu Saint Emperor sat there, it seemed as though he had merged into one with the world, becoming a part of the world. Not a slither of aura could be sensed from him. But just then, his eyebrows moved slightly, then he opened his eyes, and an extremely sharp gaze shot out from his iris.
What’s going on? Taichu Saint Emperor wondered. He felt somewhat uneasy; it was as though something was about to happen.
Of course, he wouldn’t doubt his feelings. When a cultivator reaches his stage, his senses toward the outside world would become extremely sensitive. Even if it was something that hadn’t even happened yet, it was still possible for him to feel something.
Of course, they wouldn’t know why this would happen, but they would have a faint feeling that something was about to happen.
But the Holy Land of Taichu was teaching cultivation inside the Taichu Domain. What could possibly happen?
Speaking of all the major events happening at the time, there was nothing other than the various top powers of the Divine Prefecture joining forces to target the Ziwei Segmentum. But this was a crisis for the Ziwei Segmentum, so it had nothing to do with him.
So why did his senses tell him that something wasn’t right?
The Taichu Saint Emperor’s divine consciousness swept across a nearly boundless area, shrouding all of the cultivation courts of the vast Holy Land of Taichu. All of the cultivators inside the Holy Land were cultivating quietly, and there was nothing abnormal. Nothing had happened.
His divine consciousness continued to sweep and expand toward the city afar, but he still didn’t find anything.
He frowned a little and gave up on continuing his search. He closed his eyes and returned to cultivation. If something were going to happen, then by force of nature, it would happen. All he needed to do was to wait quietly.
Inside the Holy Land of Taichu, there were countless cultivators, all in different cultivation courts. The cultivators were all practicing their own paths, forming a great thriving scene. No one had any idea what was awaiting the Holy Land of Taichu.
Some time later, somewhere far away outside the Holy Land of Taichu. A group of powerful cultivators arrived from high up above the air. Their speeds were all astonishing, and all of them concealed their auras, yet everyone who passed by could still feel that these people were different from ordinary crowds. They had to be extraordinary individuals and could be up to something.
“They seem to be going in the direction of the Holy Land of Taichu,” someone said silently inside.
“Are they cultivators from one of the cultivation courts inside the Holy Land of Taichu?”
“Doesn’t seem like it.” Many people were discussing, but Ye Futian and the others continued to advance.
They were extremely low-key for this trip. They first appeared at Four Corners Village using the tunnel set by the Master. This impressive team of cultivators traveled across vast lands silently, coming from the Shangqing Domain to the Taichu Domain and the Holy Land of Taichu.
Although the Ziwei Imperial Palace was now a force to be reckoned with, it still wasn’t possible for them to wage war against the entire Divine Prefecture. However, if the powers of the Divine Prefecture wanted to ally to besiege the Ziwei Imperial Palace, they would have to prepare to pay the price for it.
The group of powerful cultivators was extremely fast in their advance. It wasn’t long before they appeared up in the air right outside of the Holy Land of Taichu.
At this moment, waves of powerful auras descended upon the Holy Land of Taichu, suppressing the skies in this area.
Hum! Just then, from deep inside the Holy Land of Taichu, the Taichu Saint Emperor suddenly opened up his eyes, and an unbridled, dangerously sharp intent could be seen. A terrifying aura surged out from him and shrouded the vast space. Instantly, a surge of divine might descended upon the land as it seemed as though his eyes crossed space and looked right outside of the Holy Land of Taichu. There were actually Ziwei Segmentum cultivators who arrived at the Holy Land of Taichu.
The meaning of this was clear without needing explanation.
“Ye Futian, how dare you lead the Ziwei Imperial Palace to invade the Holy Land of Taichu?” The voice of Taichu Saint Emperor echoed through the air, shaking up the nine heavens and resonating throughout the Holy Land.
At this point, countless cultivators at the Holy Land of Taichu were shaken to their cores. One after another, powerful cultivators rose into the air and looked outside.
Boom! An incredibly heavy might landed down and engulfed the entire Holy Land of Taichu. Taichu Saint Emperor raised his head and looked over. He saw a figure with the Robe of the Stars appearing high up in the air. His aura was shockingly impressive; it was actually on par with him. That was a cultivator who had overcome the second Divine Tribulation of the Great Path—the Supreme Elder of the Ziwei Imperial Palace.
Lord Chen stood above the Taichu Saint Emperor with the scepter in his hand, and his gaze focused on him. Within an instant, the divine might of the great paths from the two cultivators collided into each other up in the void, causing terrifying tremors in the void and even booming noises.
“He’s strong,” the Taichu Saint Emperor could feel the pressure. His gaze was locked on the air above him while his body was still sitting there. But his figure appeared astonishingly tall and enormous, as though it was a god.
This Supreme Elder of the Ziwei Imperial Palace actually managed to make the breakthrough and overcome the second Divine Tribulation of the Great Path.
Outside of the Holy Land, Ye Futian appeared high up in the air. He announced loudly, “The Holy Land of Taichu was supposed to be a holy land of knowledge where the great paths are taught. Yet, it had repeatedly committed acts of invasion and pillage, abusing its power and bullying others. Now it’s planning to collude with the powers of the Divine Prefecture to lay waste to the Ziwei Segmentum. It has failed the name of the holy land and doesn’t deserve to be passing on the teachings of the great paths. Today, the Holy Land of Taichu shall have its name removed from the Taichu Domain. At this point, all cultivators inside the Holy Land of Taichu, I will not go after those who leave spontaneously.”
When his voice echoed in the air above the Holy Land of Taichu, every single cultivator inside the Holy Land was absolutely shocked.
The Holy Land of Taichu was the number one holy land of great path teachings. It was extremely powerful, had supreme status inside the Taichu Domain, and was worshiped and revered by the world’s people.
Yet today, someone dared to invade the Holy Land of Taichu and claim to eliminate its name from the world.
“How dare you!”
“Big words!”
Various voices sounded from different locations around the Holy Land of Taichu. Afterward, one after another, powerful auras arrived. Inside the Holy Land of Taichu, at various locations, astoundingly powerful auras appeared simultaneously.
Ye Futian didn’t mind it. He stepped forward and advanced, leading the cultivators in a direct attack into the Holy Land of Taichu.
“Invading the Holy Land of Taichu, kill without mercy,” a domineering voice sounded. Many powerful auras erupted at the same time. One after another, powerful cultivators rose into the air. Many of whom were peak Renhuang level individuals.
Boom! Two figures stepped forward—Blind Tie and Millet Emperor. Their auras were terrifying, and their mights pressured upon the world. A divine projection appeared up above the skies as though it was a god. It was holding a sky hammer and slammed straight into toward the Renhuang who was charging over. Instantly, a terrifying divine might swept out, and that Renhuang was sent flying out with a boom.
The Millet Emperor summoned the Gate of World Suppression, forcing down upon the battlefield and suppressing the crowd of Renhuang cultivators with its might; it was unparalleled domination.
Boom, boom, boom… It was just one stroke, yet many of the Renhuang cultivators were severely wounded.
Boooooom! A terrifying aura swept across the battlefield and roared like the heavenly river. Ye Futian continued walking forward. He saw an old acquaintance; it was the Purple Robe War Emperor—a formidable cultivator. There were also several other powerful Renhuangs beside him. As he dealt out a punch containing the might of the divine gods, an extremely vigorous surge of power swept through the battlefield like the roaring rivers, attempting to shatter everything in its path.
From another direction, the will of swords swarmed the skies and struck toward them from afar. These sword wills converged together and turned into a river of swords, slashing in from afar with killing intentions, obliterating the space they passed through. This was the Sky River Divine sword that came from the Taichu Sparring Grounds inside the Holy Land of Taichu. Many powerful cultivators attacked at once, dealing out a shockingly powerful attack with explosive force.
A terrifying sky hammer suddenly appeared in the hand of Blind Tie. He straight away wielded it, then stepped forward and dashed into the frighteningly powerful waves. The sky hammer in his hand smashed downward, causing the void to tremor violently. He continued to charge forward, raising the sky hammer and smashing it toward the Purple Robe War Emperor.
At the same time, Chen Yi, who was standing beside Ye Futian, moved as well. As he saw the Sword Will swarming the skies striking toward them, his body turned into a beam of light and dashed right into it. Endless Sword Will of Light erupted, purifying everything in the world. It dashed right into the river of swords and pierced through it, slashing toward the other end of the sword river.
Ye Futian and the others’ footsteps didn’t even pause, and they continued to advance. Huge booming noises erupted in the skies as the void tremored and roared.
High up in the air, many divine cauldrons levitated there. Each of these divine cauldrons was enormous. A cultivator in golden robes sat atop a cauldron and watched as Ye Futian walked over. His aura was extremely terrifying, and it was a Tribulation phase cultivator, one of the three strongest individuals in the entire Holy Land of Taichu.
Hum! Those treasure cauldrons spun and smashed down to suppress them, almost crushing space itself. Wherever it passed through, everything was crushed into fragments. Even the Great Paths were the same, nearly being shattered. No Great Path power could withstand the crushing power of the divine cauldron.
Endless divine cauldrons appeared above Ye Futian and the others, crushing down toward them in an attempt to completely crush and destroy them.
Hum! The Lord of the Ziwei Palace, Murong Yu, walked out from behind Ye Futian. An extremely magnificent Starry Brilliance shot out from his eyes, instantly transforming the world around them into the starry dimension. Countless celestial stars revolved and appeared in the segmentum before him, circling the stars and striking toward the divine cauldrons. The scene was extremely magnificent.
Their attacks collided in the void. The Tribulation plane cultivator from the Holy Land of Taichu stared at Murong Yu, who was below. Other than Lord Chen, who had gone ahead to battle the Saint Emperor, there was another Tribulation Plane cultivator beside Ye Futian.
And it seemed that he wasn’t the only one.
It looked like it would truly be a crisis for the Holy Land of Taichu this time!
