Chapter 2708 - What Will You Use To Fight?

Boom! A loud bang was heard as a massive figure came down from the sky stairwell. A statue of a deity behind this person lit up now, and suddenly a ponderous will of the Great Path erupted in an overbearing manner.

"Gaia Star Lord!"

This man was the Gaia Star Lord, one of the nine Star Lords. His strength was incredibly domineering, and he, too, had resonated with a statue of the deity. More importantly, everyone saw that he was not the only one in front of the statue, as there was also another cultivator. Both men were comprehending the same statue at the same time.

Clearly, that statue of the deity was fitting for the cultivation of both men.

The strength of the Gaia Star Lord was not considered top-notch; he was only one of the nine Star Lords. Even so, he was a cultivator in the Second Tribulation Plane, and he had the power of the gods attached to him at the moment, which augmented his combat effectiveness to a great degree. Thus, he stepped forward, clearing a path to attack.

Buzz! A divine light exploded forth, and Fang Cun was seen walking forward. The divine arm—the golden halberd—was in his hand, bursting with a dazzling divine glory from the Great Emperor. The Gaia Star Lord's eyes sharpened at the sight. Although his realm was higher than that of Fang Cun, who could ignore the might of the divine arms?

Bang! With a loud bang, an indescribable heavy pressure swept forward, and Fang Cun gave a cold huff. A golden divine aurora shot from his eyes as the golden halberd in his hand lanced forward, colliding with the Mark of the Earth that was blasted down by his opponent.

A glow lit up this corner of the sky, and it was obvious that the divine seal contained horrific power. Nonetheless, the seal was penetrated by the imperial arms. Then, the Gaia Star Lord gave a great shout, and many Marks of the Earth seemed to overlap one on top of the other and multiplied into many divine seals.

Fang Cun's expression remained unchanged, and an even more dazzling divine glory erupted from his person. In front of him, countless golden divine halberds condensed and formed at the same time and slammed forward. The divine glory of the gods cut through the void and split open the souls.

"Break for me!" Fang Cun shouted, and those multiple Marks of the Earth collapsed and shattered, repelling the Gaia Star Lord back to his original position. Behind him, an invisible force held him steady and gave him support.

"Master..." The Gaia Star Lord couldn't help but feel as if he had been beaten. As one of the nine Star Lords from the Heaven Realm, he had not just lost but lost to a youngster.

That young cultivator seemed to be one of Ye Futian's disciples.

As one of the nine Star Lords from the Heaven Realm, his defeat by one of Ye Futian's disciples would damage his reputation significantly in the Heaven Realm.

Even though Fang Cun had the help of the imperial arms, his realm was lower. On the other hand, the Gaia Star Lord had leveraged the gods' will and therefore had no excuses for his defeat.

The master of the Gaia Star Lord was the Supreme Heavenly King, who ranked first among all four Heavenly Kings. His offensive power was incredibly aggressive, and his strength was unparalleled. Even the Pagoda King was no comparison to him when they had a showdown, which demonstrated just how tyrannical was the power wielded by the Supreme Heavenly King.

At this moment, he took a step forward which caused the Gaia Star Lord to step back. Suddenly, all the cultivators felt an irresistible coercion in the boundless void. The moment the might of the Supreme Heavenly King bloomed, many thought that they could no longer stand steady upon their own legs. The pressure they were experiencing was enough to suffocate them.

As the head of the Four Heavenly Kings, his status was only second to that of the Black and White Almighties, as he had already proven the realm of near-deity. Although there was a considerable gap between him and the two Almighty beings, anyone in the realm of near-deity was standing at the pinnacle of the cultivation world.

The minute he walked out, the Ziwei Imperial Palace was under incredible pressure. After all, who could stop the Supreme Heavenly King?

The Supreme Swordlord had already fought. Would Xi Chiyao from West Imperial Palace fight him with her imperial arms?

The other major forces were in no hurry to intervene in this battle; they were not in a rush.

Initially, the gathering of these principalities was to lay siege and suppress the cultivators from the Heaven Realm so that they could fight for the Old Heaven Court. But now, it had evolved into a battle between the Heaven Realm and the Ziwei Imperial Palace, all because of something Ji Wudao said that instigated this new storm of contention.

Perhaps the cultivators from the Heaven Realm thought that this battle could be won easily and that they could use the Ziwei Imperial Palace to set an example for the others. However, they were unable to vanquish those from Ziwei Imperial Palace until now.

However, the two strongest people in the Heaven Realm had made their moves. If the White Almighty were to step in, there would be no doubts whatsoever about the outcome of this battle. Moreover, there was still Ji Wudao, who had inherited the will of the ancient Heavenly Emperor. If he was to jump in, who could stop him?

If that happened, perhaps all the cultivators from the Ziwei Segmentum would be wiped out. Even the Supreme Swordlord was hard-pressed to resist that kind of coercion.

However, the Heaven Realm was not just facing the cultivators from Ziwei Imperial Palace. In their opinion, the Ziwei Imperial Palace was the weakest among all the forces, and other imperial-level forces were lying in wait. Therefore, the Heaven Realm did not dispatch its most powerful aces just yet.

But they didn't expect that they would have so much difficulty taking down the cultivators from Ziwei Imperial Palace.

They had thought it would not take much time to deal with Ziwei Imperial Palace, which was why they decided to use it as a way to enhance their own reputation. But the whole thing had backfired, and now they were stuck in this deadlock.

Could Xi Chiyao stop the Supreme Heavenly King?

Everyone knew that Xi Chiyao of the West Imperial Palace was part of the Ancient God Clans, and she carried with her the consciousness of the Great Emperor. In addition, she also had the Raindrop Divine Sword in her possession, which could unleash a powerful force that was no less than those top figures.

Ye Futian cast a glance her way, saw that next to him, Xi Chiyao took a step forward, wanting to go out and fight.

Currently, in the camp of Ziwei Imperial Palace, no one else could counter near-deity existences. In proving the realm of the Supreme Heavenly King, she was the only one who could contend with him, so it was natural for her to want to get into the fray.

However, someone's hand reached out and stopped her.

Xi Chiyao looked and saw that Ye Futian still had his eyes on the front but whispered to her, "I'll go."

Since these cultivators wanted to go against him so badly and intended to use Ziwei Imperial Palace to make their own names, he had no choice but to take a stand himself.

Ye Futian moved forward and came out from the camp of Ziwei Imperial Palace, and Xi Chiyao watched Ye Futian from behind. She did not doubt Ye Futian's strength, but in her estimation, Ye Futian should be the last one to step out. That was why she wanted to step out herself and take this fight.

However, Ye Futian had come out on his own.

Above the vast void, the battlefield was filled with an astonishing aura, as the entire small world was shrouded by this horrific atmosphere. Many cultivators from different directions were heading this way.

Ye Futian, too, had stepped forward.

In the outside world, the confrontations between those top figures were simply shocking. The halo above this legendary figure from the Divine Prefecture seemed to have dimmed compared to Ji Wudao, Donghuang Diyuan, and all the other notable figures.

But now, Ye Futian, the Palace Lord of Ziwei Imperial Palace, seemed reluctant to stay on the sidelines any longer. In the face of near-deity existences, he was ballsy enough to step forward.

The near-deity aura of Supreme Heavenly King pressed down and shrouded Ye Futian. The cultivators in the surrounding area felt a haze hovered above Ye Futian.

Donghuang Diyuan and the others looked at him as well. Ye Futian wanted to fight a near-deity?

Supreme Heavenly King looked at Ye Futian, who was below. Just now, Ye Futian's disciple had defeated his disciple.

"What can you use to fight?" The Supreme Heavenly King questioned him as he stood in the sky above. When he spoke, it felt as if the might of heaven had descended and landed upon Ye Futian. At this moment, Ye Futian seemed to be facing a god. To everyone around them, Ye Futian seemed remarkably insignificant.

In front of a near-deity, one would naturally appear small and inconsequential.

Even Ji Wudao and Donghuang Diyuan would not be able to shake an existence of this caliber without resorting to the power of their inheritance. Ji Wudao had inherited the power of the Heavenly Emperor, and Donghuang Diyuan had inherited the Power of the Ancestral Dragon.

What about Ye Futian?

As Supreme Heavenly King said, what did Ye Futian have to fight with a near-deity existence like him?!
