Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
In Ziwei Imperial Palace, everyone was working on their projects. Some were cultivating, some were making armor, and some were focusing on alchemy.
Time passed by without anyone being consciously aware of it. Upon the land of the Divine Prefecture, more and more people were now getting involved in the war. One by one, the Empty Divine Realm, the Dark World, the Human Realm, and the World of Buddhism began to make their way in the arena of war and caught up in the storm of war.
Today’s North Cliff Region was a war zone. Those who could, migrated and left. In contrast, some who were less able could only survive in all the war and chaos. After all, there were countless cultivators in each of the eighteen regions in the Divine Prefecture, and not everyone could leave. Not to mention escape meant traveling across many continents and many regions.
The outside world was at war, and only the Original Realm continued to develop. Ye Futian was quietly cultivating in the Starry Cultivation Court.
He appeared quite calm on the outside, but the world of his life palace inside, there was something extremely interesting going on.
Now the world of Ye Futian’s life palace was like a projection of the real world. He stood above the void as countless golden lightning burst out from his body. It was radiant to the extreme, with a tremendously sharp aura blooming from him; his body was like the sword itself.
In that gigantic domain of the golden lightning, divine swords appeared. Each divine sword was shining with countless sword seals so that those divine swords contained an incomparable aura of sharpness.
Boom… In the chaotic space, that golden lightning seemed to contain powerful spatial destructive power. This imagery was somewhat similar to the scene when Donghuang Diyuan released the Tianxing Divine Sword.
It was right after he fought Donghuang Diyuan that he had some inward comprehension. He wanted to realize more powerful swordsmanship to counter Tianxing Divine Sword.
All the swordsmanship that he had comprehended previously were Dust, Fleeting, with Boundless Sword being the epitome of his comprehension of the two previous swordsmanships in totality. After he inherited the power of Ziwei the Great, he cultivated the Starry Divine Sword.
These two swordsmanships followed different paths; Boundless was unhindered by time and space, with a force that could slash through everything, accomplished in a turning of the mind. The Starry Divine Sword, on the other hand, was dominant and forceful, for it was the sword of kings and emperors. It dominated all, slaughtered all. Its power was infinite.
These days, Ye Futian had been comprehending these two kinds of swordsmanship to integrate the two into one coherent swordsmanship.
Just like the imagery in front of him.
In the destructive domain of the golden lightning, every divine sword contained an unparalleled aura of slaughter, which was bred in the space of destruction. However, at this moment, Ye Futian reached out with his hand, and immediately an infinite power gathered in front of him, as the most brilliant imperial glory was shining.
There, a gigantic golden divine sword appeared. This divine sword guided all the other divine swords in this area as if they were all under its command. It was the king of swords, and in this sword, there was the imperial glory.
Buzz! Along with a turning of Ye Futian’s thought, the gigantic golden divine sword turned ever so slightly, as the brilliant divine glory of swordsmanship came down for the kill. Instantly inside the domain, countless divine swords fell and broke through the atmosphere effortlessly.
At the same time, Ye Futian pressed his hand forward, and immediately, that gigantic golden divine sword penetrated the space and disappeared. However, it left a golden trace wherever it had passed through in the space.
Boom… In the distance, the divine sword appeared instantly, extinguishing the way and the method, unhindered by time or space. All the stars in the sky had collapsed and pulverized.
When he saw that brilliant sword light, Ye Futian displayed a look of satisfaction. After so long, he had finally perfected this sword.
It was a sword that integrated with the Starry swordsmanship of Ziwei the Great, a sword that was further evolved from the foundation of Boundless Sword. Once this sword was unleashed, it should be able to suppress Donghuang Diyuan’s Tianxing Divine Sword.
The sword wielded by Donghuang Diyuan was named Tianxing, whose meaning was the sword that executed punishment from heaven.
Then, what should be the name of his sword?
For the moment, Ye Futian had put it aside to continue his cultivation in other abilities. He was now well-versed in Buddha’s Celerity and could come and go as he pleased without a trace. He could attack at close range in a matter of milliseconds, and his physical body was invincible. Just physical attacks alone were enough to instill fear in his opponents. He wanted to perfect his ability in close-quarter combat, thus making himself even more powerful.
Ye Futian was an expert at many offensive techniques. In the World of Buddhism, he had cultivated many powerful superpowers, which could all be integrated and transformed into his own kind of power.
Ye Futian closed his eyes and entered into a state of selflessness. He was completely immersed in a cultivational state. Cultivation of the superpowers was also the attainment of a state of perfection. He recalled the seal that he was comprehending before with the third senior brother Gu Dongliu. Under the attack of the Great Emperor’s divine seal, a domain of the divine seal seemed to appear, and the attack by the seal gave rise to the illusion that one was being trapped within its domain of attacks; this was an incredibly powerful move.
This type of attack by the divine seal was similar to the Symbol of Wan that he cultivated in Buddhism. However, the Symbol of Wan was a seal that was even more overpowering, aggressive, and much stronger. The attack of the divine seal had integrated within it the abilities of other methods, but as a result, not as pure as the Symbol of Wan.
Any attempts to comprehend offensive techniques based on the basis of these powerful seals was going to be difficult, very difficult.
After all, this was already the top-notch fighting method, or else it would be impossible for him to clash head-on with Donghuang Diyuan. The fighting method, as cultivated by Donghuang Diyuan, likewise, was also the topmost of all divine methods.
Ye Futian immersed in his cultivation and comprehension. In a blink of an eye, a year passed. During this year, everyone was making progress. The Armoring Hall in Ziwei Imperial Palace was finished, and a group of master armorers had been summoned from Ziwei Segmentum to the Armoring Palace.
Today, the Ziwei Segmentum was considered a principality with the status of overlord in the land of the Original Realm. It had occupied the secret zones of many places in addition to its own cultivational resources from Ziwei Imperial Palace. Given time, they would no doubt grow stronger still.
Ye Futian stopped cultivating and found the Supreme Elder, Lord Chen, instead.
“Is the Palace Lord looking for me for something?” Lord Chen asked Ye Futian.
“Lord Chen, I have made some progress in my cultivation recently and comprehended some new ways of combat, but there is no one who could spar with me to try it out. I have no idea how powerful it may or may not be. May I ask your help to spar with me?” Ye Futian asked.
“Sure! Any study with the Palace Lord will definitely help me in my own cultivation.” Lord Chen would not refuse him, of course, and agreed readily.
“Okay, let’s head up, then.” Ye Futian and Lord Chen moved towards the sky high above and came to the Starry Cultivation Court, under the blanket of the starry sky. The two stood opposite each other, and both of them released a powerful aura. They were surrounded by divine light, and it dazzled and gleamed.
“What are the Palace Lord and the Supreme Elder intend to do?” Many people raised their heads to look at the sky above.
“Is the Palace Lord going to have an exchange with the Supreme Elder?” Some people guessed and grew excited. Immediately, everyone stopped what they were doing and looked into the firmament.
“Watch out,” Ye Futian said to Lord Chen.
“I know.” Lord Chen knew just how powerful Ye Futian was and that he couldn’t possibly be a contender. After all, Ye Futian had slain existences that were at the same level as he. Nonetheless, he had some confidence in his own power and that it was possible for him to spar with him a little.
Buzz!
Ye Futian disappeared directly from the spot. He appeared in front of Lord Chen the next moment, raising his hand and slamming it down. When the strike fell, Ye Futian seemed to have turned into a golden Buddha whose palm strikes were unbelievably overwhelming. What was even more terrifying was that when the Buddhist palm strike blasted out, it was accompanied by the Sound of Buddha.
Bang!
With a loud boom, Lord Chen raised his hand to block it, but that powerful force sent him flying.
Before he had time to grasp the situation fully, Ye Futian appeared in front of him again, still blasting him with those Buddhist palm strikes. As soon as those strikes came through, his entire person seemed to be caught up in the attack, and he felt trapped within its domain. As the Sound of Buddha lingered, the horrific power of Yin emerged again at this moment that could freeze and solidify his spiritual soul.
Boom! There was another loud boom, and Lord Chen felt very unwell all of a sudden. The aura of the Great Path exploded fiercely from his body as the divine light gleamed. He turned into the starry body, and his long robe fluttered in the wind.
In the space below, everyone saw an endless trail of Ye Futian’s palm strikes, blasting down again and again. Lord Chen was forced to change his positions continuously under that series of attacks.
“This…”
Their hearts trembled slightly. It was so sad for Lord Chen, who was beaten to the degree that he had not the strength to fight back.
The Palace Lord deserved his reputation; he was simply too powerful.
“Stop!” A voice was heard from above the firmament. Ye Futian was about to retract the giant palm print that had fallen and looked at Lord Chen when he saw Lord Chen glared at him and said, “I’m not sparring anymore.”
“Don’t say that,” Ye Futian said. “How about you gather your strength first, and I will wait to attack when you are ready?”
“Fine.” Lord Chen nodded, and suddenly the stars in heaven released an endless starry divine light as he bathed in it. His long robe fluttered, unleashing a terrifying and awesome divine glory of the Great Path.
At this moment, Ye Futian’s lips moved slightly, and the Sound of Buddha immediately surrounded him. Figures of Buddha appeared between heaven and earth in the vast space, and a massive Buddha appeared. Its presence covered the sky and sheltered the sun, completely shrouding this world.
All the Buddhas resonated with one another and extended their hands at the same time. In each hand, there was a giant Buddhist handprint that was the same as the one Ye Futian used in his previous attack. In addition, the Sound of Buddha that lingered between heaven and earth could also suppress all existence.
Lord Chen felt this power and was about to speak.
“Stop…” Lord Chen stretched out his hands and retracted his aura, signaling Ye Futian to stop.
Ye Futian was stunned as he looked at Lord Chen.
“Stop, stop…” Lord Chen said, “I’m not sparring anymore.”
“Uh!” Ye Futian said with some confusion and shock, “Don’t you want to even try?”
“Nope, I don’t.” Lord Chen simply shook his head.
Doesn’t he care about his dignity? Ye Futian wondered.
Ye Futian thought that it was kind of a shame. He was not taking it seriously, and he hadn’t even exerted half of his power. Now, he had no way of testing his true power.
“All right.” Ye Futian reluctantly retracted his aura and came to Lord Chen’s side in a flash, helping him to tidy up his garment for him.
“Don’t trouble yourself, Palace Lord.” Lord Chen’s mustache trembled slightly. He didn’t think Ye Futian was totally innocent in his kindness. He felt that he better not be fooled by this sudden gesture of kindness.
“Lord Chen, as the Supreme Elder, you deserve it.” Ye Futian tidied up his collar and said, “I am currently comprehending some methods. In the future, I may have to consult Lord Chen often and seek your opinion on how powerful they are.”
“Palace Lord, I have something else to tend to, so I will take my leave now.” The corner of Lord Chen’s mouth twitched a little, and he was gone in a flash. He had slipped away even before Ye Futian had a chance to respond.
“Don’t go!” Ye Futian shouted, sounding a little bit at a loss.
Down below, many people started laughing out loud. Then, they all went back to work on their own projects.
Their Palace Lord was too much!
That was equivalent to terrorizing his fellow men!
