Chapter 1976

Ye Futian looked at the three figures that were wrapped in the leaves and branches. His eyes were cold and indifferent; it was as if he had never taken them seriously.

The three struggled within the grasps of the branches and vines, trying to loosen their holds, but more sounds of rustling were heard as the branches and leaves that kept the three prisoners slammed straight down and smashed them directly into the ground. Their bodies seemed to be pierced through as muffled sounds of groaning were heard.

It was rather abusive.

It was clear by now that the two sides were not on the same level. All the Renhuang who were battling around them were greatly shocked as they watched the situation unfold, especially the cultivators from other forces such as Alchemy Divine Palace. They would have never expected Ye Futian to be this powerful.

All three Renhuang were from major forces. One was a cultivator from the Northern Land, and the other two were of the two Sixth Realm. But none of them were unable to fight back. They were so easily manipulated by Ye Futian. Clearly, to him, they were not opponents at all. Was this something that could have been achieved by a Middle Renhuang of the Fourth Realm?

Divine Wheel. His aura of the Great Path was so overpowering. Was it possible that his Great Path was flawless and that he possessed the perfect Divine Wheel?

At this moment, a divine light twinkled above the sky, and an Upper Renhuang of the Seventh Realm appeared above Ye Futian. It was an Upper Renhuang cultivator from the Qin He Palace. A few of the people controlled by Ye Futian were his companions.

Can he resist cultivator of the Seventh Realm? many wondered silently. Even on the outside, most of the people were looking at Ye Futian’s area of battle. Ye Futian had been a hot topic before he entered the matrix. Many people were especially focused on him.

Now that Ye Futian had demonstrated such strength in the battle, it was inevitable that he was attracting all the attention, and even more eyes were trained on him.

Not just them, but even many of the cultivators from Wangshen Watchtower were looking at Ye Futian at this moment. The old man in the lead was sitting there as he was before. As his eyes focused on Ye Futian inside the matrix, he asked, “Who knows who this man is?”

“This man goes by the name of ‘Ye Liunian.’ It is said that he came with the Alchemy Emperor. Previously, he had caused some disturbances in the Heavenly Battle Palace. Some suspected that the Alchemy Emperor was his master, but he denies it. However, in my estimation, this man did not come from the Tower of the Alchemy Emperor of Taiyuan Continent,” someone said as he was walking over to where the old man was sitting.

“Then, where do you think he was from?” The old man did not care too much about the outside world’s affairs and didn’t know of the news regarding Ye Futian, hence his inquiry.

“Eastern Deity Island,” that Renhaung replied. A flash passed through the old man’s eyes as he looked into the distance. “I see. So, it seems that she had sent him to Wangshen Watchtower to cultivate.”

“It must be.” The Renhuang next to him nodded. Their mutual understanding needed no further clarification.

Goddess Donglai did not publicize Ye Futian’s identity. She took Ye Futian to see the Millet Emperor immediately. However, as the number one principality in Dongxiao Continent, the cultivators from Wangshen Watchtower could still make out a thing or two about many events that had happened. Of course, they only guessed that Ye Futian had come from Eastern Deity Island but didn’t know that he was the heir of Supreme Being Donglai.

“Let’s see if the Upper Renhuang of Seventh Realm could do any better,” said the old man, looking at the battlefield. The Upper Renhuang of the Seventh Realm had already released the coercion of the Great Path and was ready to attack.

When that cultivator of Seventh Realm unleashed the coercion of the Way, the vast and endless void was filled with a suffocating oppressive force. Ye Futian looked up in the sky and saw that many additional phantoms now surrounded the opponent. In an instant, there were thousands of them, standing above the sky and surrounding the void. Each phantom was akin to a figure of the war god. How horrific would it be when these thousands of phantoms unleashed the coercion of the Great Path at the same time?

It seemed that Ye Futian was in a desperate situation and was about to be buried in that space.

“But this…” Those cultivators watching the battle from the outside were shocked. An Upper Renhuang of Seventh Realm now took action, but without any interference from Wangshen Watchtower. It was as if they had given their permission in silence to allow Ye Futian to deal with an opponent of the Seventh Realm.

Renhuang Fourth Realm was classified as the first realm of Middle Renhuang, and Seventh Realm was already Upper Renhuang. There was an entire level separating the two. Could Ye Futian still have a chance in such a battle?

“As an Upper Renhuang, it is a little unfair to fight against you. If you can withstand one strike from me, I will stop,” said the Upper Renhuang of Seventh Realm in the void, loud and clear. His voice resounded throughout the void. It was as if his many phantoms were speaking simultaneously, which caused countless echoes between heaven and the earth. His voice lingered in the sky, reverberating in everyone’s ears for quite a while.

Ye Futian raised his head to look at the other. How could he be so hypocritical?

One strike. This was probably going to be the most powerful strike ever.

“Your guys already showed that no lowly tactics are off-limit in battle, so why bother to pretend to be so generous?” Ye Futian said sarcastically. In this Law Battle of the matrix, what could victory mean when someone in the Seventh Realm was fighting against someone in the Fourth Realm?

The original intention of this trip had already been violated; this was now purely an attack aimed at Ye Futian. If that was the case, there was no need to dress it up.

“Of course, I don’t care how many times you attack me. In front of me, you are not in a position to say what you just said,” Ye Futian remarked sarcastically. As soon as his voice fell, his body levitated into the air, and an astonishing aura of the Great Path was released. A golden divine light glittered upon his body, and a Buddha seemed to have appeared. The Sound of Buddha lingered. It was as if there were endless Buddhist characters flying out, resounding everywhere between heaven and earth. Everyone’s ears were filled with the rhythm of Buddha, and in their mind, an ancient Buddha seemed to have manifested.

“Since you are so shameless as to allow an Upper Renhuang to launch the attack, don’t blame me for being merciless,” Ye Futian said softly, completely stunning everyone as they looked at him in astonishment.

No mercy?

Was this an appropriate thing to say to an Upper Renhuag of the Seventh Realm?

“How arrogant.” Not far away, Goddess Emperor Yi of Goddess Peak regarded Ye Futian with her beautiful eyes. This was the most conceited Renhuang she had ever seen. His ostentation was not expressed in his attitude but implicitly through his action and speech. But, he did have actual strength to back up his sense of superiority.

However, at this moment, he was facing a powerful existence of the Seventh Realm. Could he also crush it with the Great Path?

“Be careful. This man is a powerful Renhuang at Qin He Palace. His attacks are extremely fierce. He can will thousands of phantoms attacking at the same time, so its offensive power would multiply manifold. Don’t be careless.” Ye Futian heard a voice, and it was Goddess Emperor Yi who had transmitted the message to him.

Ye Futian glanced at the other person from the corner of his eyes, only to see Emperor Yi appear as she was, quietly watching the battlefield where the two were located. Perhaps, this warning was a sign of her goodwill toward him.

He did not respond. The coercion of the Great Path from the cultivator of the Seventh Realm in the void was getting stronger. Thousands of phantoms seemed to resonate with the Great Path. A domineering power of the Great Path emerged from each of the phantoms, suppressing this space. The entire void felt an immeasurable heaviness, as it was shrouded and oppressed by an invisible pressure of the Great Path. Any ordinary Renhuang standing inside this space would suffocate.

Ye Futian stood there with his usual expression, but he had felt a trace of pressure nonetheless. The feeling was like a corner of the sky was about to collapse and crush on top of him.

Above Ye Futian, a divine tree appeared, expanding at a terrifying speed. In a few short moments, the elusive aura of the ancient tree was everywhere in this vast world, as if a divine tree had been planted here, turning it into a domain of the Great Path.

Bang. A muffled sound came out, as thousands of phantoms stepping at the same time above the firmament, a golden brilliance bloomed upon their bodies. They had the same movement, raising their arms as golden light screens flowed upon those arms. They were tinged with a terrifying breath of shattering the Great Path.

Finally, under countless gazes, the other man moved with the many phantoms that moved at the same time in the same fashion. They delivered a blow downward, and in that instant, this corner of the sky seemed on the verge of collapsing. The crowd saw the phantoms of the sky lord running through the void, blasting their attacks at Ye Futian.

Simultaneously, a horrific invisible sound wave swept out, causing those phantoms to explode and then pulverized. Many wore a shocked expression on their faces as they beheld this unbelievable scene in awe.

The greatest sound was usually inaudible. They could not hear the sound of this sound wave, but they could feel it.

In the space shrouded by the ancient tree, an exquisitely cold and dark aura appeared in the domain of the Great Path, which froze those elusive phantoms that had dove downward, turning them into icy frost. Before the attacks had reached Ye Futian, they had already turned to ice.

The crowd saw Ye Futian’s body slowly levitating, and a terrifying storm of swordsmanship appeared around him. Wherever he passed, those elusive phantoms continued to shatter and explode. Thousands of phantoms dissipated at a breakneck speed. And in a short time, everything had turned into dust.

Soon, the Renhuang of the Seventh Realm appeared in person. He looked at what was happening in front of him in utter horror, as all the external phantoms of obfuscation turned into dust and disappeared in an instant. However, he had no time to be in shock. Before he knew it, a sword with flawless swordsmanship had arrived in front of him.

Boom… A wildly violent power of the Great Path exploded fiercely as his body turned into an indestructible golden form, suppressing the Great Path with its power. Both of his fists blast through the air to block the sword strike.

As the sword fell, a sharp sizzling sound was heard. This sword seemed to have integrated thousands of Sword Will between heaven and earth, converging them into a single sword. The golden form shattered, and the fists emerged bloodied. The sword continued traveling forward, slashing the arms. It slammed into the body of the Great Path above. Cracks appeared as a golden divine glory was observed by the crowd. In the next moment, the sword finally stopped, but that Renhuang of the Seventh Realm was knocked out into the faraway distance, standing motionlessly, with blood spurting from his chest.

His body was filled with terrifying, destructive Sword Will.

“Is this your strike?” Ye Futian glanced at him with contempt in his eyes. “Is this the very powerful Seventh Realm?”

The Upper Renhuang of the Seventh Realms was still being utterly crushed!
