Chapter 2635: What’s the Choice?
Above the firmament, dark clouds that came from a distance away filled the sky. Although everyone could feel the terrifying aura in the distance, it was still quite far away. It was only because of the great cultivation that this aura could be perceived.
“Invade,” said a voice that came from afar, and the cultivators frowned when they heard it. These people had an impeccable sense of timing.
“Prepare for war.”
Many cultivators moved forward, heading to the front of the battlefield. At the same time, the cultivators in the Divine Prefecture began to arrange a supreme grand matrix. Instantly, the light from the matrix shot into the sky with a terrifying aura.
“Shenyan Buddha Lord.” A peak cultivator from the Divine Prefecture looked at the Divine Eyes and saw that Shenyan Buddha Lord had opened his third eye to scrutinize the other side. He then proceeded to comment, “They do not seem to be here to start a war; the great army did not follow them.”
“Mmm,” The man nodded, and cultivators from all sides dispersed, spreading in the void, taking up different positions. The atmosphere of the Great Path shrouded even the areas that were quite remote.
The cultivators in the distance did not get any closer as terrifying dark clouds continued to gather this way. However, above the firmament, the divine light bloomed with an extreme brilliance that shrouded the boundless void. It blocked the invading dark clouds on one side, which formed a divide above the firmament.
Although the cultivators on the side of the Divine Prefecture were scattered, Ye Futian was still among them. The domain of the Great Path from the City Lord of Tianyan had covered the area where he and Wang Xiao were in. However, their attention, at this moment, was on the area in the distance.
Did the Devil World choose this point in time to go to war?
“Devil World, come forward and receive Palace Lord Ye.” A voice came from a distance away that resounded throughout the camp that represented the Divine Prefecture. Everyone in the army from the Divine Prefecture could hear him loud and clear.
“You guys are not very nice. So many top figures are ganging up on one person.” The man who spoke was the Dark Saint Hua Yunting of the Dark Court. His voice was not overly loud, but it was strong and powerful.
“Ye Futian, on this trip, have you now truly witnessed the hypocrisy of the Divine Prefecture, the World of Buddhism, and the Human Realm?” Mo Qingge, the Evil Sage of the Empty Divine Realm, also piped up. Both he and Hua Yunting had met Ye Futian before, at the Alchemy Contest in Tianyan City.
“These three realms of the Divine Prefecture claimed to be righteous, which is a ridiculous notion.” Words of jeer were heard from the other side successively, as the atmosphere of terror continued to permeate, slowly drifted to this side.
It seemed that they were here to take Ye Futian away.
Among those from the Dark Court, there was someone who was covered up in a cloak; this, no doubt, was Ye Qingyao. However, she did not speak but kept her cloak on, looking extremely mysterious.
But the eyes under the cloak seemed to drift toward Ye Futian.
“Ye Futian joined the side of the Devil World which invaded the Divine Land. I fear that in the future, he will lead cultivators from the Original Realm to kill on the lands of the Divine Prefecture. Let’s take this opportunity to eradicate him and put an end to him right here,” the City Lord of Tianyan proclaimed loudly. The actions of the three major realms of the Devil World seemed to further confirm that Ye Futian was already in alliance with them.
Under the circumstance, how could the City Lord of Tianyan forfeit this excellent opportunity to get rid of Ye Futian and kill him here?
“Wang Xiao, do it. Do it for the Divine Prefecture and get rid of Ye Futian; this is the right thing to do,” he exhorted. In this case, killing Ye Futian was good for the Divine Prefecture. As long as Ye Futain was dead, no one could dispute the charge of him colluding with the Devil World.
“Kill me?” Ye Futian looked quite sarcastic when he heard these shameless words coming from the City Lord of Tianyan. He replied with much contempt, “Even if we are in the domain of the Great Path, do you think that he will be able to kill me with the imperial arms and that his power is enough? All of you that are on the outside, who among you want to join in? Are you all planning on being buried with these fools?”
Considering his cultivation level today, if Wang Xiao wanted to kill him, he definitely needed to use the imperial arms, and not just with the ordinary power that he could muster. Wang Xiao must be able to explode with an incredibly terrifying force in order to kill Ye Futian. However, if this level of power were to erupt, Ye Futian was sure he would not be the only one who dies.
“Many of you who are present today have had grievances with me in the past. Now, I’m giving you a chance, but no one wants to take it. Instead, you want to kill me with the imperial arms. In addition, you have added ridiculous and imaginary charges on my account as a way to seek personal vengeance. This is just ludicrous.” Ye Futian continued sarcastically, “It seems that Tianyan City has been nothing better to do lately.”
Hearing Ye Futian’s words, the City Lord of Tianyan wanted to kill him more than ever. Murderous intent grew evermore fierce in his heart. At the same time, Wang Xiao raised his head to stare at Ye Futian.
Ye Futian’s continued existence was indeed a great threat to Tianyan City.
Buzz! A terrifying aura effused as a monstrous shockwave swept out. Where Wang Xiao was standing, imperial glory was shining and surrounding him. The Sky Tremoring appeared in his hand, aggressive to the extreme. Just from him holding it in his hand, one could feel its unparalleled power.
Undulations upon undulations of shockwaves swept in Ye Futian’s direction. Ye Futian was showered in an extremely dazzling golden brilliance. His entire body dazzled as if he was clad in armor. Runes of the Great Path circled him as a divine shadow appeared, with him in the center.
These terrifying shockwaves blasted on Ye Futian, but he stood there steadily. Even if Wang Xiao’s cultivation had transformed, and the power that was erupting with the imperial arms made him more powerful than ever. Still, it was only the power from the imperial arms. How could he ever dream of possibly affecting Ye Futian?
Clearly, Wang Xiao knew how terrifying was Ye Futian’s physical body. He had already cast a divine body of his own, but he still couldn’t gain the slightest advantage in direct confrontation with Ye Futian. HIs opponent also possessed a divine body that was akin to divine arms, overwhelming and forceful.
A terrifying aura came out of Wang Xiao’s hands. With the Sky Tremoring in hand, he focused his attention solely on Ye Futian. With a step of his feet, he went for Ye Futian with extremely fast speed. He wanted to get close enough for the attack so he could attack Ye Futian without with more accuracy, thus limiting the damage to the outside world as much as possible.
At the same time when Wang Xiao made his move, the top cultivators from the Devil World also moved as well. The Reaper, who was shrouded in the black cloak, was the fastest of them all as she stepped directly into this space. The moment she descended, the whole world turned into a domain of death. All living things was drying up and withered quickly, replaced instead by the aura of death.
In the area below the Divine Prefecture, the great army was deploying a grand matrix of defensive. They did not participate in the conflict but focused on passive defense. They were not qualified to participate in war at this level.
“Stop her.” Several top cultivators from the Divine Prefecture moved forward. But besides Ye Qingyao, several very tyrannical existences materialized. Among them, Hua Yunting the Dark Saint was also there. His eyes scanned the area in front of him, and a black storm of destruction formed between heaven and earth.
The Dark Saint, like the Demon Sage of the Devil World, was someone who stood at the very top.
In the chaotic war hundreds of years ago, all the major worlds had lost many cultivators, and a large number of top figures had fallen and were forgotten in the long river of history. The major worlds also suffered considerable losses even as they began to cultivate another generation of cultivators.
However, the likes of the Demon Sage and the Dark Saint were powerful existences that had lived for many years. They had survived the great wars in the past because they were standing at the peak of the imperial-level forces. Their strength was clearly beyond ordinary imagination.
The rest of the cultivators also moved forward and became entangled in this confrontation. As for the three major groups from the Devil World, they obviously knew that Ye Futian did not form any alliance with them.
However, since the Divine Prefecture threatened Ye Futian and wanted to force him to choose a side, they didn’t mind taking advantage of the situation that could cause a total and complete break between Ye Futian and the Divine Prefecture. This way, Ziwei Segmentum would have to get involved in the war.
Naturally, they were just fine with that outcome.
On the battlefield where Ye Futian was, Wang Xiao held the Sky Tremoring and headed towards Ye Futian. The Sky Tremoring slammed down and blasted right on Ye Futian’s body. However, Ye Futian disappeared right away, just as that terrifying shockwave swept forward. Having missed its intended target, that force slammed into the Great Path Domain, causing a muffled groan from the City Lord of Tianyan.
“What you were thinking was no more than idiotic dreams.” Behind Wang Xiao, a voice was heard, and it was Ye Futian.
With Buddha’s Celerity at his disposal, he didn’t really want to confront Wang Xiao head-on. But was it possible for Wang Xiao to do the same?
To kill him, there was only one way. In this area that was covered in the domain, different levels of attacks were not possible, and the attack must be powerful enough to destroy everything. To be able to kill him, ordinary attacks were far from sufficient.
Then, the attack must be strong enough to wipe out everything around the target. At least, the City Lord of Tianyan would be buried with him.
Boom! An aura of mighty destruction swept out, and a terrifying vision between heaven and earth appeared behind Wang Xiao. An otherworldly phantom appeared; it was like Tianyan the Great himself had descended into the world. He held the Sky Tremoring in one hand. He appeared more dominant and overbearing than ever. He regarded Ye Futian with tremendous contempt. It was as if the great emperor had been resurrected.
Terrifying shockwaves swept out, pressing towards Ye Futian. The Sky Tremoring gathered as traces of terrifying and destructive divine light enveloped Ye Futian’s body, locking onto him.
Ye Futian stood on the edge of the Great Path domain, surrounded by divine light. He simply allowed those terrifying shockwaves to impact his divine body. He stood there absolutely still. His eyes stared at Wang Xiao, not showing the slightest hint of fear.
He was curious to see if Wang Xiao dared to deal a fatal blow on him?
“Wang Xiao, kill him!”
The City Lord of Tianyan was heard loud and clear, but Ye Futian’s figure changed positions constantly. He reappeared in the same position as the City Lord of Tianyan, in the sky above, behind Wang Xiao.
Would Wang Xiao kill him?
“Do it! I will use the imperial arms for protection,” the City Lord of Tianyan urged loudly. Even under this kind of condition, he was still inciting Wang Xiao to make a fatal strike.
Boom! Destructive lightning exploded as the Sky Tremoring moved forward. A mighty apocalyptic power of destruction seemed to swoop in Ye Futian’s direction!
