Chapter 2292: A Moving Relic
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
In the past, even though Ye Futian had extraordinary talents, he was but a Renhuang who had exceptional combat abilities in the Divine Prefecture. There were plenty of top forces in the Divine Prefecture. Therefore, no matter how monstrous he was, he was still insignificant.
However, it was different now. Ye Futian was no longer just an extraordinary talent himself. His background and the forces he commanded were all among the finest. There were not many forces in the Divine Prefecture who could afford to offend him. Hence, his entire temperament naturally seemed different.
Even among the 18 Domain Chief Manors, more than half of them did not command forces as powerful as those below Ye Futian. Only the Domain Chief Manors with chiefs who had survived the second stage of a divine tribulation dared to claim that they could suppress Ye Futian and the Heavenly Mandate Academy. Even then, Four Corner Village still had a mysterious Master to hold down the fort.
With such a background, even against all the top forces of the Divine Prefecture, Ye Futian’s manner was still imposing.
Nevertheless, the crowd knew that Ye Futian had sought the aid of the forces of the Divine Prefecture during the battle of the Heavenly Mandate Academy. Unfortunately, not many of them stood out to lend him aid. Many forces had even tried to kick him when he was down. Under such circ.u.mstances, they still came here seeking Ye Futian for permission to cultivate in the starry cultivation court. He would naturally not act kindly towards them.
Someone said, “Of course, we want to cast the forces of the Dark World out, too. However, the forces of the Dark World are different from the forces in the Divine Prefecture. They are very united. The Dark Court rules over all the forces in the Dark World directly. Recently, more and more top forces from the Dark World have arrived in the Original Realm. Their lineup is as powerful as that of the Divine Prefecture. It is not that simple to want to chase them out. Before we declare war against them, why don’t we unite the forces in the Divine Prefecture and improve our abilities by cultivating in the starry cultivation court first?”
Ye Futian glanced at the person who had spoken. The other party’s words sounded reasonable, but in the end, he also wanted to cultivate in the starry cultivation court first. No one could guarantee what would happen after these cultivators gained the right to cultivate in the starry cultivation court.
“I disagree,” Ye Futian refuted. “Pardon me for speaking my mind frankly. Last time, when the Heavenly Mandate Academy was attacked, many forces from the Divine Prefecture were also waiting for the chance to join in the attack against me. Most likely, many of you wanted to kill me. I can’t tell for sure what everyone is thinking. If I allow all of you to cultivate in the starry cultivation court, but you end up becoming my enemies, wouldn’t I be foolish for inviting trouble upon myself? Since Seniors are interested in allying with me, then you should show some sincerity first.”
Ye Futian’s speech caused the cultivators to fall silent. From the looks of it, Ye Futian was firm with his decision. If they wanted to gain access to the starry cultivation court for cultivating, they had to first join forces with him to eradicate the forces of the Dark World lurking in the Original Realm. Otherwise, he would not agree to their request.
Last time, when all the forces went to visit Ziwei Imperial Palace in the Ziwei Segmentum together, the latter had no choice but to allow them to cultivate in the starry cultivation court. However, it was different now with Ye Futian in charge. They would most likely be unable to force him into accepting their request. It was because Master served as a deterrent.
“Since that’s the case, we’ll further consider your suggestion,” said someone. Clearly, the person thought that the price they had to pay to cultivate in the starry cultivation court was too high. It was not worth it. Hence, the person was giving up.
Right at the moment, quite a lot of people arrived. They actually traversed the s.p.a.ce and entered into the Heavenly Mandate Academy directly. Naturally, this caused Ye Futian and the cultivators of the academy to frown.
The incomers had serious expressions on their faces. They went straight to their respective forces and reported something to their seniors using transmitted thoughts. It seemed like something had happened.
Someone also landed beside Ye Futian and told him something using transmitted thoughts. The news caused Ye Futian to narrow his eyes.
One by one, the cultivators from the various top forces of the Divine Prefecture saluted their fists and said, “Farewell.”
After they said this, they immediately flew up to the sky and left.
“What happened?” Lord Taixuan revealed a worried expression. The person who just communicated with Ye Futian through transmitted thoughts was a cultivator from Ziwei Imperial Palace. From the looks of it, something had happened. Otherwise, the cultivators from the Divine Prefecture would not have left together. Most likely, they had also received the same news.
Many people looked at Ye Futian. Ye Futian said, “In a void s.p.a.ce outside of the 3,000 Realms of the Great Path, someone discovered a relic. According to speculation, it is a very ancient relic.”
The eyes of the cultivators narrowed when they heard Ye Futian’s words. No wonder the visitors from the Divine Prefecture left in a hurry. Clearly, they had received the same news and decided to check out the relic immediately.
The Original Realm was a void s.p.a.ce formed after the collapse of the Heavenly Path. It was also called the Void Realm.
However, it also became a unique place that consisted of the 3,000 Realms of the Great Path and countless void s.p.a.ces. n.o.body knew what lay in these void s.p.a.ces. Many years ago, people had searched through and plundered the void s.p.a.ces. Nevertheless, there was bound to be something that they missed.
For example, all Nine Supreme Realms had their secrets. The Ziwei Segmentum, which was sealed by Great Emperor Ziwei, was hidden in the Ziwei Realm.
The Original Realm had recently undergone a complete transformation. More and more changes were occurring. Hence, the appearance of an ancient relic didn’t seem bizarre.
“Do you have the coordinates of the relic?” someone asked. The void s.p.a.ce outside of the 3,000 Realms of the Great Path was vast and endless. The Ziwei Segmentum, for example, was very far from the Nine Realms. Hence, they had to build a powerful grand teleportation matrix to connect the two places.
The cultivator from Ziwei Imperial Palace replied, “Yes. The relic was discovered by some mighty cultivators from the top forces of the Divine Prefecture. Besides that, it was discovered because it was approaching the 3,000 Realms of the Great Path. Right now, most likely, a lot of people have caught news of its existence. The forces from the Divine Prefecture that visited the Heavenly Mandate Academy just now were only part of those who had come to the Original Realm. Many of them are making their way to the relic now.”
“A moving relic?” Ye Futian nodded and said, “Let’s go and have a look.”
After he said this, the group flew up to the sky right away.
The cultivator from Ziwei Imperial Palace led the way, and they left the Heavenly Mandate Realm. They traveled towards a specific direction in the void. After a while, they had left the region where the Nine Supreme Realms were.
As they progressed forward in the void s.p.a.ce, Ye Futian and his group could gradually sense an unknown power. The power seemed to contain a faint might. It was as though heavenly might was transmitted across s.p.a.ce to where they were.
The power became clearer as they approached the s.p.a.ce. Even the giant-level figures could feel a super strong pressure acting on them.
“This might!” exclaimed Lord Taixuan. This unknown might gave off the same vibe as when they were cultivating in the starry cultivation court in the Ziwei Segmentum. Could it be that this was yet another ancient relic left by a Great Emperor?
As they moved upwards, they discovered that a deep and scary-looking crack had appeared in the sky. A frightening storm formed. The crack was like a terrifying object that would leave marks in the s.p.a.ce when it moved. Looking past the crack into the distance, one could faintly sense an extremely menacing power was moving.
As expected, it was a moving ancient relic, and it was approaching the 3,000 Realms of the Great Path.
What exactly was it? It gave off such frightening pressure!
