However, Ye Futian was happy to see the current situation.

Previously, countless eyes from the Six Realms were trained on the Ye Imperial Palace and on him. Now, Ji Wudao had attracted their gazes. The cultivators of the Seven Realms were all discussing Ji Wudao and even prepared to attack the Heaven Realm.

In this way, the focus on the Ye Imperial Palace was averted. It was like giving him more time to cultivate.

And at the moment, time was what he lacked the most. Time in the Micro Heavenly Path flowed at a different speed, so one or two years in the outside world was extremely precious to him.

This was also why he had rejected the Human World. He believed that even though he could fight a Great Emperor now, he still wasn’t qualified for the ultimate game. Cultivation was still a top priority.

The cultivators of the Ye Imperial Palace continued to cultivate in the Micro Heavenly Path. At the same time, people of the Ye Imperial Palace were ordered to report news at any time, and Fang Gai would decide whether to report it up to him or not.

Even though there were dramatic changes in the outside world, putting in effort and acting was not easy. It needed time.

Within Ye Futian’s Micro Heavenly Path, the Heavenly Rule Power was becoming more and more refined. Everything in the world started operating according to its own law and gradually stopped needing Ye Futian to control it. They could continuously refine themselves and become complete.

At the same time, while the people of the Ye Imperial Palace cultivated in the world, the Law Divine Power that they comprehended would also be fed back to the Micro Heavenly Path, causing the relative Law Order to be created in the Micro Heavenly Path. This self-evolving and creative abilities shocked Ye Futian too.

Ye Futian had not been cultivating recently. Instead, he observed the operation of the world and discovered an exciting situation. There were all kinds of disorders in the process of the world as a whole, but there was also order within the disorder. It seemed to be following some supreme law, and this law might be the Heavenly Path’s consciousness that had been created.

And Ye Futian was the one who could directly influence the Heavenly Path’s consciousness. The Heavenly Path’s consciousness had been born because of him.

Thus, Ye Futian began considering something else. How could he utilize this discovery and improve the Micro Heavenly Path, so it was even stronger?

Ye Futian closed his eyes. His mind wandered throughout this Heavenly Path world. That moment, he seemed to enter a state of non-self. He was gone. In his subconscious, he had transformed into the Heavenly Path, becoming one with the Heavenly Path.

He could see all of the cultivators clearly—he could even feel the flow of every shred of aura on their bodies. He could also feel every strand of the Heavenly Path intent in this world.

He saw everything in the Heavenly Path, felt all of the Laws, Yin and Yang, the five elements, and more. He saw the space and could even vaguely see time.

He was even wondering if he could completely control the Law of Time one day and see time directly, then the time before his eyes would be tangible instead of illusory. Then would he be able to directly see the past and future, or even enter a certain moment in the past or future?

He had read many scriptures of the Buddhist clan’s literature before. There were some about time, and there was even the Buddha of the Past, Buddha of the Future, and Buddha of the Present.

What exactly was the final point of cultivation?

Did the different cultivation techniques aim for the same final plane?

The Great Paths were similar. He had a feeling that the end of cultivation should all be the same, no matter what method they chose. There was a saying among the Buddhists that people were only choosing which way they would reach the other side with.

Then, what was the end of cultivation?

The ultimate plane—was it the Heavenly Path?

Then, what was the Heavenly Path?

These were a bit difficult to understand. Ye Futian still could not crack it with his current level.

…

The outside world had already been upended.

Not too long ago, there had been a war in the Heaven Realm. Four realms had allied, and many strong figures of the Emperor Realm had attacked the Heaven Realm. The entire way there had been unobstructed, but they ran into trouble inside the Heaven Imperial City, outside the ninety-nine heavens. They couldn’t even enter the ninety-nine heavens.

They could not break the ninety-nine defenses and invade until the four Great Emperors had attacked from afar. However, Ji Wudao used the power of the Heavenly Path and directly killed and devoured all of the cultivators who had entered. Countless Great Emperors would lay there forever. When the strong figures retreated, they had almost been wiped out completely. The four Great Emperors even used supreme divine power to forcefully break into the ninety-nine heavens and rescue the people. However, they hesitated outside the ninety-nine heavens and did not enter.

After camping outside the ninety-nine heavens for a whole month, the great army retreated. In the end, the physical bodies of the four Great Emperors still had not appeared and killed their way into the ninety-nine heavens.

Instead of fearing Ji Wudao, they feared the Heavenly Path. No one knew how strong the Heavenly Path was. If they entered and something happened, no one knew if they would remain there forever like the fallen Great Emperors.

This war shocked the Seven Realms. None of the worlds could handle the Heaven Imperial Palace anymore. This war also meant that the Heaven Imperial Palace had finally returned and were unstoppable. Earlier, Ji Wudao dared to aggressively kill a Great Emperor, and he indeed had the strong confidence.

This war also meant that if they wanted to break into the ninety-nine heavens, they could only accomplish it if the six Great Emperors attacking personally.

The Human Ancestor officially sent invitations to the other five Great Emperors to attack the ninety-nine heavens together and kill Ji Wudao, lest he wreaked havoc in the world.

The World of Buddhism still did not participate; Donghuang the Great still refused to join the war.

The rivalry between the Human Realm and Divine Prefecture was deepening. In fact, they had already allied with the Devil World and others. No one knew how things would develop.

…

Such a great matter had occurred in the outside world, but Ye Futian did not know anything about it. He was still immersed in his own cultivation. After Fang Gai received the information, he still chose not to disturb Ye Futian’s cultivation. He thought the same as Ye Futian—resting and continuously strengthening was the top priority for the Ye Imperial Palace right now.

As for the changes in the outside world, it was unrelated to them for now. Even if it was related, they weren’t qualified to get involved.

At the moment, Ye Futian was still immersed in the cultivation state of non-self within the Heavenly Path world.

Without realizing it, a lot of time seemed to have passed. A beam of light appeared in the world. Cultivators in different parts of the world saw this light. It fell down, penetrating the vast space, crossing through the entire world.

Everyone’s hearts pounded intensely, and they looked up to the source of the light. It was a sword—a divine sword forged by the Heavenly Rule Power.

“This…” The hearts of the Supreme Swordlord and others pulsed. The West Emperor couldn’t help but narrow his eyes and stare at that sword.

They had all cultivated in the ninety-nine heavens of the Heaven Realm. The scene before their eyes was very familiar.

“In legends, some innate supreme divine items would be born when the world was created because of the law and rules. They’re birthed by the world,” the West Emperor murmured, causing the people beside him to be shaken up inside.

Was Ye Futian’s world creating innate divine items too?!
