The Legend of Futian

Chapter 2662: The Guardian Divine Beast

“Leave none alive,” Ye Futian declared in a cold tone.

As he said this, his divine consciousness enveloped the vast space. It even pierced through the darkness that had surrounded the area around them.

In an instant, he locked onto a cultivator who was a powerful existence from the Dark World and was at the Two Tribulation Plane.

The cultivator’s body seemed to penetrate the darkness, attempting to merge with it directly.

Sky Tremor appeared in Ye Futian’s hand. A terrifying Tremoring Pulse swept out. He swept a cold glance over in the direction of the cultivator as his figure disappeared with a flash. A huge rumbling sound could be heard as Sky Tremor in Ye Futian’s hand smashed down. It did not have a target, nor did it need one.

An extremely ferocious aura swept out. A dull thud could be heard. A part of the sky immediately shattered.

Bang. The silhouette that merged into the darkness appeared and coughed up a mouthful of fresh blood. His face was pale, and his aura was extremely weak, as though he was on the brink of death.

“Have mercy,” said the person in a low voice. However, Ye Futian’s figure appeared in the sky above him as he said this. The former seemed to appear instantaneously. Sky Tremor immediately came crashing down. The person had a look of despair. The next moment, his figure disappeared instantly, disintegrating beneath the imperial arm and dying tragically on the spot.

In other locations, Lord Chen and the others also attacked. Chen Yi was the fastest. He became a beam of light that swept across the space. A Tribulation Plane cultivator was soon pierced by the light and disappeared into a mass of sparks.

Hua Jieyu, Gu Dongliu, Fang Cun, Duo Yu, and others had powerful combat abilities. Ordinary members of top forces would be no match for them. ɴᴇᴡ ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀʀᴇ ᴘᴜʙʟɪsʜᴇᴅ ᴏɴ NoᴠelFɪre.net

In terms of combat ability, the cultivators among the upper echelons of Ziwei Imperial Palace were on par with the members of emperor-level forces. Their cultivation resources were not inferior to those of the latter.

How many forces could compare with Ziwei Imperial Palace in terms of resources in the Seven Realms?

They had ritual implements, elixirs, emperor-level teachings, and top-level martial arts techniques. They were not lacking in any department. Only emperor-level forces could compare. Even the Ancient God Clans were not on the same level as them.

Everyone present was an extraordinary cultivator. However, in a very short amount of time, the cultivators who attacked just now were killed off one by one. This caused the hearts of the remaining members to tremble. They frenziedly retreated backward, attempting to escape this place.

Although they had heard of the Ziwei Segmentum, they still tempted fate. They coveted emperor-level ritual implements. After all, Ye Wuchen most likely obtained one. Yet, who would have thought that these people were so terrifying?

Ye Futian was incredibly terrifying. While wielding Sky Tremor, he was unstoppable. With a swing of the hammer, a giant-level figure from the Dark World was sent flying out of the darkness. Ye Futian did not use too much force to keep his swing as stealthy as possible. Hence, he had swung a second time. Otherwise, the other party would have undoubtedly died after his first swing.

After killing the cultivators who emerged from the darkness, the frightening pair of Divine Eyes disappeared into the space. Clearly, Shenyan Buddha Lord was no longer observing this place. Currently, it was not wise to offend Ye Futian. Even the former did not dare to do so casually.

With his Divine Eyes, he could investigate many relics and see more things than others did. In this tomb of the gods, he would undoubtedly reap more significant benefits, so there was no urgency.

One by one, the powerful divine consciousnesses also retreated. They were cautious of Ye Futian. After catching a glimpse, they immediately decided to retract their consciousnesses.

Ye Futian sensed all of this. He did not pay them to heed.

He had a vendetta against Shenyan Buddha Lord. Nevertheless, the Buddhist forces had been kind to him. He would not touch Shenyan Buddha Lord for now. However, if the latter were to come and bother him, he would not hold back.

Ye Futian could let Shenyan Buddha Lord and those observing go, but he would kill the cultivators who attacked Ye Wuchen just now.

He also knew that this ancient continent was full of plundering and massacres. He would not show an ounce of mercy to his enemies.

Taking a step forward, he walked towards Ye Wuchen. He then glanced up ahead. A terrifying spatial Tremoring Pulse appeared. Shaking Doors of Space seemed and immediately linked over to a distant space.

He also knew how to do this.

Just now, when the other party utilized the Doors of Space to send out long-range attacks, Ye Futian also used Telekinesis to pinpoint their location. Did the other party plan to escape after attacking him? He wouldn’t just let them do so.

The Doors of Space connected the two spaces. At the other end of the doors, a cultivator suddenly turned around to check what had happened. Through the doors, Ye Futian and the cultivator could see each other.

The facial expression of the cultivator turned extremely ugly immediately.

There were many people on the cultivator’s side. An entire faction was there.

Ye Futian lifted Sky Tremor in his hand. The person’s facial expression changed drastically. The next moment, Sky Tremor smashed the Doors of Space. A terrifying Tremoring Pulse immediately penetrated the Doors of Space and crashed to the other side.

This was Sky Tremor. After destroying the Tianyan City Lord Office, everything owned by the former belonged to Ziwei Imperial Palace. That naturally included the Divine Technique—Sky Tremoring Hammer.

The Divine Technique Sky Tremoring Hammer was initially created for Sky Tremor. The art complemented the imperial arm.

On the other side of the Doors of Space, everyone had surprised looks. They wanted to escape with the power of Space, but Sky Tremor’s attack descended upon them and shattered the space directly. Terrifying rumbling sounds could be heard. All of them were killed by the shockwaves and perished.

The Doors of Space that opened were similarly turned to dust.

Many people witnessed this scene. They all felt shivers down their spines. This fellow was too terrifying. In the future, if they ever came across a cultivator from Ziwei Imperial Palace, it was best to avoid them. They were too dangerous.

Even Lord Chen and the others were speechless. This was ruthless. If they were Ye Futian’s enemies, this was practically a nightmare. As expected, those who attacked Ye Wuchen had sought their own deaths.

The battlefield was very quickly cleared out. All those who had wanted to pillage and plunder were killed off. None of them escaped. All of them had been killed off without exception.

“How do you feel?” Ye Futian put Sky Tremor away and initiated a conversation with Ye Wuchen, who had just broken through to the next plane. It was as though the massacre had never happened.

Ye Futian and Ye Wuchen had experienced many hardships since the beginning of their journey from the Nine States. Now, Ye Wuchen had finally broken through the shackles of the Renhuang Plane and had come to this stage too. Ye Futian was naturally very happy for his friend.

“There is no end to the profundity of swordsmanship,” Ye Wuchen replied as he looked at Ye Futian. From the looks of it, he was not satisfied with his achievement of breaking through to the next plane. Instead, he felt that he was still weak after experiencing the profundity of swordsmanship through the Sword Will left behind by the Great Emperor.

The day he could eliminate the Sword Will contained in the sword was perhaps the day he mastered swordsmanship.

“In that case, seek the end of swordsmanship,” Ye Futian advised. “Perhaps one day, you will be the definition of the end of swordsmanship.”

“I still have a long way to go,” Ye Wuchen said.

“Paths are made by walking,” Ye Futian responded. He hoped that one day, he and all his friends would be the ones who stood at the end of the path and the absolute pinnacle.

The group once again embarked on their journey and continued their exploration. The surroundings were less barren. This ancient continent might have regained a bit of liveliness due to the arrival of various cultivators.

However, the bleak ambience remained. Ye Futian could sense that wars were happening in different locations.

“The commotion over there seems to be the loudest,” Lord Chen said as he pointed in a direction. Ye Futian nodded in agreement and said, “Let’s go and take a look.”

The group accelerated in that direction. A moment later, they were shocked by the scene before them. In different corners of the space, powerful cultivators stood guard. There were many other people around. They were observing the scene with serious expressions. Their eyes were fixed on the creature in front of them.

A terrifying gale stirred, and the dust danced in the wind. There was a gigantic creature flapping its wings in the sky. A casual movement from the beast was enough to cause a menacing storm.

The beast seemed to be a divine roc from ancient times. Its eyes were huge, and it emanated a savage aura. It faced all the cultivators head-on and fought against various cultivators alone. It would not step away and be determined to protect the palace behind it.

A dilapidated divine palace was behind the gigantic beast half-buried in the sand. It was covered by sand, but one could still faintly make out its silhouette. It was majestic and appeared timeless in this ancient land.

“This beast is different from other beasts we have encountered before. It has sentience and consciousness,” said Gu Dongliu in a low voice. Ye Futian and the rest nodded in agreement. For such a terrifying and sentient demonic creature to stand guard here, there was surely something extraordinary hidden in the palace. No wonder so many cultivators had gathered here and intended to explore the place.

However, up until this moment, nobody had broken through the defense of this ancient beast. All of them were forced to stop here. Many cultivators had even perished!
