The Legend of Futian

Chapter 1776 Mei Ting Pays a Visi

After cultivators from the Holy Land of Taichu left, the huge crowd outside of the Heavenly Mandate Academy also dispersed reluctantly.

Ye Futian’s group returned to the academy. Lord Taixuan glanced around at the crowd and said, “Now that a storm has been stirred up in the Nine Realms, I hope that the cultivators of the 3,000 Realms of the Great Path can stand united and overcome this chaotic situation together. I also hope that friends from the Outer Realms will not stir up trouble. It is as Ye Futian has said: regardless of whether we are from the Outer Realms, the Void Realm, or the Original Realm, these are all lands of the Divine Prefecture. Donghuang the Great unified the Divine Prefecture in the hopes of making martial arts prosper. This is also the goal of the Heavenly Mandate Academy. We hope to spread our teachings across the world and cause martial arts to prosper, cultivating even more outstanding teachers of martial arts in the future.”

Lord Taixuan continued, “Of course, if our friends from the Outer Realms have their own opinions, they can come and sit down with the Heavenly Mandate Academy to discuss things. We can learn from each other and improve our relations. That is all I have to say for today. Farewell.”

After hearing Lord Taixuan’s words, the various cultivators left one after another. The cultivators of the Heavenly Mandate Realm were somewhat reluctant. Many youths were asking, “When will the Heavenly Mandate Academy take in new disciples again?”

“I don’t know. However, wanting to join the Heavenly Mandate Academy now will most likely be even more difficult,” someone lamented. The people around him all nodded their heads in agreement.

Recent events caused the Heavenly Mandate Academy to become even more famous. In today’s battle, Ye Futian and his group fully displayed the grandeur of the cultivators of the Void Realm and crushed the cultivators of the Divine Prefecture’s training holy land who came to challenge them. Such a glorious battle would certainly be one for the history books. In the future, if Ye Futian and Yu Sheng stood at the top of the world, this would be a crowning moment on their road to glory, a moment in the past of legendary figures.

The next time the Heavenly Mandate Academy accepted disciples, many people would want to join them. Most likely, even figures who had already made a name for themselves would want to join the Heavenly Mandate Academy to cultivate.

“I wonder how Ye Futian, Yu Sheng, and the others train. The difference between them and us is truly enormous,” someone lamented. The difference in their talent was too huge.

The members of the Holy Land of Taichu from the Divine Prefecture could not be considered weak. Sima Xiao’s War God’s True Will of Waves had peerless attack and defense. However, it was forcefully suppressed by Yu Sheng and shattered with a punch.

When the seventh wave of Tai’e Sword burst forth from Mu Qingke, he shattered the space with just a finger. Nevertheless, he still lost to Ye Futian. Prior to that, even Nan Luoshen was sent flying backward by the Sword Will of Mu Qingke during their short exchange. If the two of them had engaged on the battlefield, Nan Luoshen would have certainly lost.

It was actually apparent from a simple exchange.

Currently, can Ye Futian be considered the top figure of the generation? someone wondered.

“Of course. In the generation, among those of the same Plane, it is impossible for anyone in the 3,000 Realms of the Great Path to be able to defeat him. If there are such people, it is only possible if they are also in the Heavenly Mandate Academy,” someone to the side said with a laugh.

“Yu Sheng?”

“Maybe,” the person who had spoken before replied with a laugh. “Yet, alone in this generation, Ye Futian and Yu Sheng will most likely be two of the most outstanding figures in the 3,000 Realms of the Great Path ever since Donghuang the Great unified the Divine Prefecture. They might even be the two most outstanding figures.”

The person to the side was stunned when he heard these words. He stopped in his tracks and revealed a pondering look.

However, after pondering for a bit, he also realized this and agreed with it somewhat. After Donghuang the Great unified the Divine Prefecture, there indeed had never been a figure that could cause uproars time and time again at the lower-level Renhuang Plane like this. Ye Futian had also already formed a team of flawless Divine Wheel possessors. This was too frightening.

It was not inappropriate to call him the most outstanding figure.

Now, they could only wait and see whether Ye Futian could one day rule over the Nine Realms.

…

In the Heavenly Mandate Academy. Ye Futian and the others arrived back one after another.

Although they had pushed back the cultivators of the Holy Land of Taichu, Ye Futian did not feel happy. The Holy Land of Taichu had directly come knocking on their door to challenge them and wanted to replace them. This could only mean that the current situation in the Nine Realms was getting more and more chaotic. The forces of the Divine Prefecture already could not wait to take over the Nine Realms and replace the original forces.

From this battle, Ye Futian had also gotten a faint grasp on the strength of these top forces of the Divine Prefecture. Although his side had won, Ye Futian had witnessed the abilities of Mu Qingke, Sima Xiao, and even that swordsman. If Ye Futian, Yu Sheng, as well as his third older brother hadn’t been the ones fighting, they would have lost this battle.

Moreover, this group was just a fraction of the power of the Holy Land of Taichu. It was difficult to imagine how frightening the background of the Holy Land of Taichu in the Divine Prefecture was. The difference between them and the Heavenly Mandate Academy was too huge.

However, this was also understandable. The forces of the Divine Prefecture in the Outer Realms had countless competitors for eons. Ye Futian’s group could not possibly imagine what huge figures had been born from such conditions.

The Heavenly Mandate Academy could be compared with such giants. Even if they were an alliance of many forces, they were still no match for the forces of the Divine Prefecture.

From the attitude that Song Imperial City and the Holy Land of Taichu bore against the Heavenly Mandate Academy, one could sense such a sentiment. These top forces did not only contain arrogant people. Song Imperial City had wanted to directly guide them; the Holy Land of Taichu had wanted to directly replace them. This proved one thing: the overall ability of the other party was far superior to their own each time.

“Older brother, what is that fourth Divine Wheel of yours? What happened in the Divine Wheel dimension?” Dou Zhao asked as he looked curiously at Ye Futian. Many people immediately also looked at him. They all wanted to know what had happened. Prior to this, during the battle with the Shen clan, Ye Futian had also defeated Shen Hao in such a manner.

“It is a Boundary Wheel,” Ye Futian replied.

“A Boundary Wheel?” Dou Zhao was somewhat confused. He did not really understand.

“It can forge a self-contained space of the Great Path. It can even imprison the Way of others,” Ye Futian explained without hiding anything.

“Imprison?” In a low voice, Xiao Muyu asked, “Master, how does it imprison the Way of others?”

“Within my Divine Wheel dimension, others will not be able to communicate with the powers of heaven and earth. They will be severed from the Great Path,” Ye Futian explained. “Say, for example, the other party is proficient in the Great Path of Space. If they are unable to escape my Boundary Wheel’s dimension and attempt to use the Great Path of Space to whisk themselves away, the passageway of the Great Path that they create will be imprisoned and severed.”

“It sounds like an even more advanced Divine Wheel,” Xiao Muyu mumbled. “In the 3,000 Realms of the Great Path, Divine Wheels are categorized into levels such as flawless level, Celestial level, and so on. However, in supreme forces like ours, there is only the distinction of flawless or flawed Divine Wheels. If so, then in the Divine Prefecture of the Outer Realms, are flawless Divine Wheels also classified according to ranks? Or should it be said that there are levels higher than flawless?”

“I do not know,” Ye Futian replied. “However, there might exist such levels.”

In reality, Ye Futian’s fourth Divine Wheel was forged with the World Tree’s Life Spirit as its foundation, and it was unique. He knew that his Way was a flawless one. It might actually be different from others.

“Master, you seem unhappy,” Xiao Muyu commented.

“So many forces have their eyes on the Heavenly Mandate Academy. What is there to be happy about?” Ye Futian responded with a smile. “The Nine Realms are in chaos. Our Heavenly Mandate Academy is among the first few to be swept into this chaos. I do not know whether or not we should be proud of our Heavenly Mandate Academy’s influence.”

The crowd was also speechless. It seemed that it was indeed the case. The Heavenly Mandate Academy was the first to be swept into this chaos.

First, it was the Dark Army who had descended. Now, the Holy Land of Taichu had also come.

I hope that we have more time, Ye Futian thought to himself. Currently, he felt that his training was progressing too slowly. However, at his current level of cultivation, further improvement was indeed too difficult. This speed of cultivation was already extremely fast. If it were ordinary Renhuangs like Emperor Xia, wanting to break through to the next Plane was almost impossible.

This chaotic situation in the Nine Realms would certainly last for a very long time.

“The forces from the Outer Realms are strong. However, right now, since the Heavenly Mandate Academy has formed alliances with various forces, it is not a place that the Outer Realms forces can easily lay their hands on,” Nan Luoshen voiced out softly. “If the Heavenly Mandate Academy is faced with trouble, the other forces will not sit still.”

Ye Futian nodded in acknowledgment. “With Emperor Nan as my support, I can indeed be at ease.”

The teleportation grand matrix of the Heavenly Mandate Academy was now connected to various major forces. If war really erupted, strong aid would step in. With Divine Palace Palace Lord, Emperor Nan, and other top figures around, the Heavenly Mandate Academy was capable of taking on all sorts of big battles.

“Everyone, go back to your own training,” Ye Futian said. All the cultivators left one by one and went back to their own training.

This battle continued to be the topic of conversation in Heavenly Mandate City. Gradually, the news of this battle spread throughout the Nine Realms.

Other than Ye Futian, Yu Sheng’s name was now renowned throughout the Nine Realms.

The next day, everything returned to its normal peaceful condition.

Ye Futian was cultivating quietly. However, at that moment, a silhouette suddenly appeared outside the palace. It was Lord Taixuan. He was staring straight ahead into the distance. Dark streaks of wind flowed over without a sound or presence. Then, they formed a black-robed silhouette that silently appeared in the inner quarters of the Heavenly Mandate Academy.

All this actually happened without a sound.

“Mei Ting!”

Lord Taixuan’s facial expression turned ugly. It was too dangerous for a figure like Mei Ting to suddenly arrive and directly enter into the inner quarters of the Heavenly Mandate Academy without a trace.

“What business do you have with us?” Lord Taixuan’s body was tense; he seemed anxious.

Mei Ting cast a glance at Lord Taixuan, saying, “I am here for some matters. Do not alarm the rest.”

Lord Taixuan revealed a strange look. He did not understand. Did Mei Ting not want to alert the others?

He still stood there motionless, contemplating countermeasures. He was not sure exactly how powerful Mei Ting’s cultivation was. It was certainly more powerful than his own. He only needed to delay the other party for a while. When the others came over through the teleportation grand matrix, they could surround Mei Ting.

However, if they attacked, it would bring calamity to the Heavenly Mandate Academy.

“Before you can possibly pose a threat to me, what do you think will happen to the Heavenly Mandate Academy? You better consider it carefully.” Mei Ting’s eyes were jet black. His voice was extremely calm. What he said was exactly what Lord Taixuan was worried about.

Mei Ting walked straight in. Ye Futian said, “Lord Taixuan, please let Senior Mei in.”

When the Dark Army descended, and Mei Ting had appeared, Dragon Master had mentioned to Ye Futian that Mei Ting had paid a visit to Dragon Gods. He had also killed the Demonic Dragon.

However, Ye Futian could vaguely sense that this matter was not as simple as it appeared.

It might be related to Yu Sheng.

Otherwise, Ye Futian could not think of other reasons why such a terrifying existence would kill the Demonic Dragon. Now that Mei Ting was here, Ye Futian was even more certain that his arrival was linked to Yu Sheng.

The only connection between the Demonic Dragon and the Heavenly Mandate Academy was Yu Sheng.

Ye Futian had always wondered about the true identity of his godfather. This Mei Ting might be related to his godfather!
