“They have all been destroyed!” someone exclaimed.
The crowd stared at the divine statues tumbling down from the sky stairwell. Their hearts trembled. They felt that it was such a shame.
These were the Tianshen golems. They had been destroyed just like that. The wills of the Tianshens also disappeared without a trace.
How did Ji Wudao manage to destroy all of the wills of the Tianshens in the golems?
Aside from Ji Wudao, the will of the Demonic Lord that Yu Sheng obtained was also so powerful. He could go toe to toe with Ji Wudao. Borrowing the power of the cultivators of Devil Imperial Palace, an unparalleled demonic might burst forth from him. Now, another prominent figure had emerged.
However, the crowd did not have time to ponder about this. Their figures flashed as they traversed the sky and frantically rushed towards the sky stairwell. They wanted to see whether the shattered Tianshen golems still contained the wills of the Tianshens.
The cultivators from various forces dashed onto the sky stairwell. They flipped over the shattered golems and scanned them with their spiritual wills. They inspected each golem one by one thoroughly. Alas, they discovered that these golems had already returned to being the simplest of statues. Hence, they were shattered, and the wills of the Tianshens no longer resided in them.
Ye Futian’s group came to the sky stairwell as well. However, he did not inspect the statues. His spiritual will merely swept across them. The various golems on the sky stairwell had all been destroyed by Ji Wudao. As for how he managed to do so, even Ye Futian could not tell.
Buzz. Silhouettes dashed up high into the sky towards the peak of the sky stairwell.
At the top was a dilapidated Heavenly Palace. There were originally also Tianshen golems up here. Now, they were shattered into pieces as well. A divine statue of the Heavenly Emperor used to be erected in the center of the palace. However, the statue of the Heavenly Emperor, the ruler of the Old Heaven Court, was also destroyed. There was not even a trace of rubble left behind. It had been completely wiped off the face of the planet.
“Ji Wudao sure is decisive,” someone commented. The Heavenly Emperor was the ruler of the Old Heaven Court and the leader of House Deva. He was one of the most powerful figures in the ancient era. The current Heaven Realm could be considered his descendants. Yet, Ji Wudao destroyed the former’s statue just as he claimed he would.
It might be that Ji Wudao had already inherited the will of the Heavenly Emperor. Even if he had inherited the latter’s will and was his heir, Ji Wudao did not hesitate at all when destroying the divine statue. His decisiveness was apparent from the way he did things.
Ji Wudao rarely appeared in the world. Based on what he did here, he was not as agreeable as he appeared.
The ancient Heavenly Palace was in ruins and appeared somewhat dilapidated. There was once a divine aura in this place, but now even that gradually dissipated into nothingness. It was saddening to witness, and the crowd felt that it was such a waste.
“There is some writing here!” someone cried out in astonishment. Many people looked over where that person was. There was a gigantic pillar where he stood. This divine pillar that towered into the sky was originally a stone pillar that supported the Heavenly Palace. Now, it was broken but was not completely destroyed.
On top of the gigantic broken stone pillar, someone discovered some writing. There was a line of casually written words.
There was even a hint of grace in the casualness of the writing.
This caused many people to reveal strange expressions. When they saw the words, their hearts throbbed.
“They seem to be left behind by a woman,” someone said in a low voice. The calligraphy of the woman bore a sense of elegance in its beauty. The words themselves seemed to be authoritative. Who left behind these writings?
Ye Futian also came over and looked at the stone pillar and saw the writing on it –
“Today, I was blessed to be able to pay homage to the various G.o.ds of the Old Heaven Court and bear witness to their splendor. I also inherited the G.o.ds’ will to spread their teachings around the world. This place will remain for the future generations to look up to for many millennia to come.”
Ye Futian thought to himself, Who was she? She had such a great vision.
He was actually impressed. He could not help but have respect for such an ambitious person.
This person had visited this place and carved some words here. She intended to follow the wills of the Tianshens and pa.s.s down their teachings to the world.
She reserved this place for future generations to pa.s.s down the teachings.
Her words also served as a reminder to all the cultivators who visited the place after her. They were free to inherit the wills of the Tianshens, but they should not destroy or occupy the place. Instead, the cultivators should allow future generations to come here to inherit the wills of the Tianshens.
How many people were there in the world who possessed such great ambition?
“These words are most likely left behind by her,” Supreme Swordlord said in a low voice. He was as shocked as the others. As the daughter of the Heavenly Emperor, she had certainly visited this place before. However, she had not pocketed everything for herself. Instead, she had left everything intact so that they could be pa.s.sed down to the generations to come.
The blood of the emperor flowed in her veins, and she was unrivaled. Without her presence, the world lost most of its colors.
Ye Futian looked at Supreme Swordlord. He faintly knew who the person the latter mentioned was. These words seemed to be left behind by a woman. In that case, Supreme Swordlord must be referring to the daughter of the emperor of the Heaven Realm. Admiration welled up inside of Ye Futian.
He did not know whether such a prominent figure still existed in the world. He wondered whether he would have the opportunity to meet her and witness her glory.
“Ji Wudao is most likely her descendent. She was so ambitious, and she desired to let this relic be pa.s.sed down to future generations. However, Ji Wudao eradicated this place,” Supreme Swordlord a.n.a.lyzed while frowning. What was Ji Wudao thinking exactly? How much of her tutelage did he receive and preserve?
Not far away from Ye Futian, Donghuang Diyuan stood there and stared at the writing on the stone pillar. Her gaze was fixated on it for a long while.
“It seems like her descendent has disobeyed her,” Di Hao from the Human Realm commented from the side. He was similarly guessing the person’s ident.i.ty who left behind these words.
Ji Wudao was most likely her successor. However, he did not inherit her will. She had such a great vision for the generations to come, yet Ji Wudao destroyed all the golems of the Tianshens. He ruined everything here completely, committing an act that was the polar opposite of what she had wished. He defied her vision.
“Or perhaps, she was the one who had changed,” Donghuang Diyuan mumbled. Di Hao was stunned by her words and took a glance at her. Then, he watched as Donghuang Diyuan turned around and left the stone pillar. He seemed to be deep in thought as he gazed at her leaving figure.
“From the looks of it, nothing is left here,” Di Hao concluded as he retracted his gaze from Donghuang Diyuan. He then looked at Ye Futian and Yu Sheng and said, “Congratulations to the both of you.”
Ye Futian revealed a strange look. He turned around to face Di Hao. The two of them were not close. When Di Hao went to the ruins of Mahoraga before this, he was up to no good.
Di Hao complimented, “The Divine Ruler can slay all demons. Now that the Divine Ruler and the will of the Demonic Lord have each found their successors, there are two more extraordinary figures in this world.” He spoke with a sincere tone, as though he was pleased about their achievements. There was even divine light moving around him. He gave off a righteous vibe, causing the people around him to feel very comfortable.
Was this head disciple from the Human Realm genuine with his compliments?
“Many thanks,” Ye Futian replied calmly. His voice was emotionless and sounded rather stiff. Di Hao did not seem to mind it either. However, quite a lot of cultivators around them looked in their direction.
Yu Sheng received the teachings of the Demonic Lord while Ye Futian inherited the Divine Ruler. Both of them had extraordinary fateful encounters. They were now at the pinnacle of the cultivation world.
Moreover, the two of them were allies. The other forces would not dare to simply target them now.
Even though some of them coveted the Divine Ruler, they needed to reconsider whether it was worth it for them to attack Ye Futian now that they had seen Yu Sheng’s ability.. Just now, everyone witnessed how powerful Yu Sheng’s strike was. Aside from Ji Wudao, who else in this ancient continent could withstand it?
