Ye Futian naturally would not accept the Law Battle. A mere middle-level Renhuang from Qin He Palace wanted a Law Battle with him?
How would they battle?
They were not on the same level. A seventh-tier upper-level Renhuang was barely qualified to invite Ye Futian for a Law Battle.
Ye Futian looked at the Law Battle Platform. His expression was calm. It was as though all this was unrelated to him.
The other party had invited cultivators from the Taiyuan Continent to have a Law Battle with him. In reality, they were targeting Ye Futian. However, Ye Futian was not a cultivator from the Taiyuan Continent.
Many people sitting beside him gazed at him. They wanted to see how he would respond; however, they were quickly disappointed when Ye Futian remained sitting there, showing no intention of battling.
On the other hand, some Renhuangs next to Ye Futian frowned. Their expressions were not happy. They naturally also realized that Heavenly Battle Palace invited them over with ulterior motives.
Now, a member of Qin He Palace had directly challenged them. Would they accept the challenge?
It was not just the people on this side. In the vast area of Heavenly Battle Palace, countless cultivators below all lifted their heads and looked over. They wanted to witness a Law Battle between Renhuangs. It remained to be seen whether the cultivators from the Taiyuan Continent would allow them to do so.
“The cultivators from Qin He Palace are proficient in battle,” Yang Qian said with a smile. “It has been many years since w.a.n.g Ye has proven his Way and reached the middle-level Renhuang Plane. His Divine Wheel of the Great Path is powerful, and his combat ability is also extraordinary. Among the figures of the same level in w.a.n.gdu, his combat ability is considered extremely powerful. This is his first time partic.i.p.ating in a Law Battle here in Heavenly Battle Palace. It will certainly be a spectacle.”
Yang Qian did not coerce the cultivators from the Taiyuan Continent to partic.i.p.ate in the battle. He seemed to keep on talking on his own. Under such circ.u.mstances, if the cultivators from the Taiyuan Continent wanted to leave, he would not say anything.
“Yesterday, during the Alchemy Conference, Renhuang Ye displayed extremely proficient pill-concocting ability. He concocted extraordinary pills with middle-level Renhuang Plane cultivation. I believe that his own ability must certainly be outstanding. Will I have the opportunity to experience it for myself?” another person said at the moment. The person who spoke was Grandmaster Zi He.
Yesterday, after Ye Futian concocted his pills, Zi He knew that in terms of pill-concocting ability, even he was no match for Ye Futian.
He speculated that Ye Futian’s ability would definitely not be weak. Ye Futian might even be very powerful.
Ye Futian turned his head and looked at Zi He. He smiled and asked, “Does Grandmaster Zi He want to have a Law Battle with me?”
Zi He was stunned. His Plane was much higher than Ye Futian’s. Zi He would naturally not partic.i.p.ate himself. His meaning should have been obvious.
“w.a.n.g Ye’s Plane is the same as Renhuang Ye’s,” said Qi Mu to the side as he looked at the Law Battle Platform.
Ye Futian traced Qi Mu’s gaze and looked in the direction of w.a.n.g Ye. w.a.n.g Ye similarly was looking at him; his eyes were burning with battle intent. Clearly, w.a.n.g Ye desired to have a match with him.
“Grandmaster Zi He’s Plane of cultivation is also higher than mine. However, does it mean that the pills that he concocted will definitely be better than mine?” Ye Futian said indifferently as he cast a glance in the direction of w.a.n.g Ye. “If I were to join the Law Battle, he would be unworthy as my opponent.”
Ye Futian’s tone was arrogant. Since the other party was dying to challenge him, naturally, he did not need to be polite with them. Yesterday when he was at the Alchemy Conference, the cultivators of Qin He Palace had tried all sorts of tricks on him. Now that they wanted to challenge him in a Law Battle, did they think it would be sufficient for them to send out a representative at this level?
The crowd had naturally sensed the arrogance in Ye Futian’s tone. It seemed like he was indeed very confident of his skills. w.a.n.g Ye was considered a powerful figure in Qin He Palace, yet Ye Futian claimed that he was unworthy to be his opponent in a Law Battle.
Moreover, Ye Futian had shamed both Zi He and w.a.n.g Ye in his speech.
On the Law Battle Platform, w.a.n.g Ye’s gaze was fixed upon Ye Futian. A formless might of the Great Path pressed down on Ye Futian’s s.p.a.ce from across the platform, seemingly forcing Ye Futian to retaliate.
Ye Futian frowned and swept a glance at the other party. For a split second, Ye Futian’s eyes changed. w.a.n.g Ye felt as though he was staring at a full moon instead of a pair of eyes. He felt a chill all over his body; the cold seemed to freeze even his soul.
The crowd revealed strange expressions. They could sense that a formless aura of the Great Path had appeared in both their eyes. This aura of the Great Path was chilly, emanating a frosty vibe.
Were the two of them already exchanging blows?
Sizzle. Frost appeared in the air. The crowd noticed that frost also appeared on the body of w.a.n.g Ye, who was standing on the Law Battle Platform. His hair turned white as it was covered with a layer of rime. He was s.h.i.+vering, as though the surrounding was very cold.
At this moment, w.a.n.g Ye, who was already a Renhuang, actually felt extremely cold. He attempted to break free from that sensation; however, he had fallen into his opponent’s control. A glance from Ye Futian was enough to make him fall.
Many people were astonished as they stared at Ye Futian. He had not even lifted a finger. He merely looked at w.a.n.g Ye. He was still firmly seated in his seat.
“You want me to have a Law Battle with you?” Ye Futian uttered. His voice seemed to contain the might of a sonic wave; it was deep and domineering. His voice carried the might of Buddha, which could instill fear in people’s hearts.
As soon as Ye Futian spoke, countless voices reverberated in w.a.n.g Ye’s mind. He felt as though his soul was going to explode.
With a splat, w.a.n.g Ye had actually spat out a mouthful of blood. His body seemed to have received a shock from an invisible force. He took a few steps backward as his face turned ashen.
At this moment, the might dissipated. w.a.n.g Ye had finally freed himself from the unpleasant sensation. He raised his head and looked at Ye Futian, who remained seated. The white-haired youth had a calm expression, as though he had never attacked w.a.n.g Ye at all.
“Do you still want a Law Battle with me?” Ye Futian asked. His voice still sounded nonchalant. w.a.n.g Ye’s face was as pale as a sheet of paper. He stood up and bowed slightly at Ye Futian, saying, “Thanks for showing me a few pointers.”
After w.a.n.g Ye had greeted Ye Futian, he turned around and left directly. He was too ashamed to stay around.
With just a brief exchange, Ye Futian had engraved in him a profound lesson.
There was nothing powerful about being at the Renhuang Plane.
The Renhuangs of Qin He Palace had extraordinary combat ability. w.a.n.g Ye considered himself outstanding. However, only now did he realize how weak and frail he was. w.a.n.g Ye could not even withstand a gaze or a shout from Ye Futian.
A Law Battle? w.a.n.g Ye was not worthy.
What would he bring to a Law Battle?
w.a.n.g Ye turned and walked away. He got off the Law Battle Platform and left, leaving behind a stunned crowd.
Just then, deafening cries of astonishment and the noise of rowdy discussion came from below the Law Battle Platform.
Although they had not witnessed a Law Battle, it was as though they had seen a battle that was even more soul-stirring than a Law Battle. With just a gaze, Ye Futian caused a Renhuang at the same level to be knocked back and surrender?
From w.a.n.g Ye’s response, he admitted his defeat. He no longer had the intention of battling, being defeated fair and square.
This could only mean that the two of them were not even on the same level. The difference between them was too great.
The people who were sitting on the spectator stand were also astonished at Ye Futian’s might. The cultivators of Qin He Palace felt disgraced. The cultivators of Alchemy Divine Palace were also speechless. They had coerced Ye Futian to a Law Battle, yet w.a.n.g Ye could not withstand even a gaze from Ye Futian. Their abilities were not matched. What could w.a.n.g Ye bring to their Law Battle?
Even though they had speculated that Ye Futian’s ability might be very powerful, they had not imagined that he would be so powerful.
Based on Ye Futian’s attack just now, it would be difficult for even a fifth-tier Renhuang to defeat him. No wonder he had directly challenged Grandmaster Zi He.
“If you want to see me in a Law Battle, your core members should come out personally. For instance, if the Young Palace Lord of Heavenly Battle Palace were to stand on the Law Battle Platform, I might consider it,” Ye Futian said indifferently. Such arrogant words startled the surrounding people.
What sort of figure was the Young Palace Lord of Heavenly Battle Palace? He was already a seventh-tier upper-level Renhuang. His combat ability was also very powerful. No one below the upper-level Renhuang Plane was a match for him.
However, they could hear the dissatisfaction in Ye Futian’s tone. This time, Heavenly Battle Palace had invited them over, yet they actually wanted to watch Ye Futian partic.i.p.ate in a Law Battle. Ye Futian naturally had qualms with this. Hence, he had said such words, venting the frustration in his heart.
The Young Palace Lord of Heavenly Battle Palace, Yang Qian, ignored Ye Futian’s discontentment. He laughed heartily and said, “I have to confess to Renhuang Ye about the matters today. I have indeed invited you all here with other motives in mind. I wanted to witness the abilities of the members of various continents. This is how I am. I love Law Battles. If I have offended Renhuang Ye, please excuse my offense.”
Many people revealed strange expressions. Yang Qian was actually apologizing to Ye Futian?
This…
It seemed that Ye Futian’s previous attack had won Yang Qian’s respect.
“I regret missing the grand occasion at the Alchemy Conference. I never imagined that I would witness such a scene today. I am getting even more curious about Renhuang Ye. Your pill-concocting ability and combat ability are extraordinary. If my speculation is correct, Alchemy Emperor has brought Renhuang Ye to w.a.n.gdu to meet Millet Emperor?” Yang Qian asked with a smile.
Many people had come this time for the w.a.n.gshen Watchtower. However, not many people dared to say that they had come to meet Millet Emperor. After all, even if they could enter the w.a.n.gshen Watchtower to cultivate, they would not necessarily meet Millet Emperor.
However, the instantaneous exchange just now made Yang Qian realize that Alchemy Emperor had brought Renhuang Ye to w.a.n.gdu for this purpose!
