Chapter 2824: Ten Years Remaining
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
In 21 years, eight opportunities had come from the Heavenly Path.
This time, it was a divine item from the Demon Realm bestowed upon Ye Futian.
The descendant of Emperor Ye Qing received a divine item from the Demon Realm today. And on this day, there were only the last ten years left of Donghuang the Great’s 500-year reign of the Divine Prefecture.
What would the fate of the Divine Prefecture be like?
How would the rivalry between Ye Futian and Donghuang the Great end?
At the moment, Ye Futian was not thinking about ten years later yet. He saw the huge Divine Demon Diagram floating in the air, and his superconscious seeped into it directly. Instantly, it was as if he’d entered the demonic world inside the diagram. The world recorded in the diagram turned into a realistic world, appearing right before his eyes.
He could sense a powerful demonic aura. There were dragons, phoenixes, kylins, kunpengs, golden turtles, divine birds, gold-winged rocs, taoties, qiongqis… All demons existed together in this demonic world. He could feel their existence. Of course, this was not real, but it felt no different from something real.
He could feel the Divine Power of all sorts of demons in this diagram.
“You can come in to cultivate,” Ye Futian said to the cultivators of the Ye Imperial Palace. Many of the people of the Ye Imperial Palace cultivated the Demonic Way. However, many had not come here. If the great demons that joined him from Demon G.o.d Mountain could have a.s.sistance from such a divine item, their cultivations would improve rapidly.
“Palace Lord Ye, are we able to study from this divine item to cultivate too?” other cultivators asked. They were tempted, but they already thought that the Divine Demon Diagram belonged to Ye Futian by default and thus did not dare to be brash.
Nowadays, no one dared to offend Ye Futian. Even Great Emperor-To-Be’s did not dare to do so.
“Since this is a divine item from the Heavenly Path, anyone who wants to use it for cultivation can use it,” Ye Futian replied. He was extremely generous, which surprised many people.
However, since Ye Futian agreed, they naturally would not hold back. Many people’s divine consciousnesses entered the Divine Demon Diagram in the void and studied the Divine Power of the Divine Demon.
“Third Brother, see if this divine item suits you or not,” Ye Futian transmitted his voice to Gu Dongliu. Gu Dongliu’s expression changed as he looked at Ye Futian. This guy…
They were extremely close, so he understood Ye Futian’s underlying message. From what he was saying, was he preparing to gift this Divine Demon Diagram to him?
The Heavenly Path had sent down this divine item, yet Ye Futian wanted to give it away.
This guy!
“I received a lot of opportunities after the G.o.d’s Ruins Continent was discovered,” Gu Dongliu replied by transmitting his voice. “This item was a gift from the Heavenly Path here. It’s best if you keep it.”
“This item is extraordinary, but it’s not that significant for me. It doesn’t matter whether I have it because it does not affect my abilities. But if it suits you, it might be very beneficial if you use it for cultivation, so why not?” Ye Futian said. “Third Brother, since when were you so polite with me? Second Sister wouldn’t be like this.”
Everyone in the world thought that he was the descendant of Emperor Ye Qing, but only he knew that he was not.
Even if the Heavenly Path mistakenly gifted him this Divine Demon Diagram, it is not the most compatible for him. Instead, it was better for Third Brother.
“Okay, I’ll try it,” Gu Dongliu said, nodding. Then his divine consciousness stretched towards the Divine Demon Diagram to study the power of the divine demon.
Ye Futian smiled. Just as he had said, he had his own “little Heavenly Path” now. It was true that this divine item was not very meaningful for him. Naturally, making the most out of it would be the best.
However, he could also study it and cultivate now.
After his divine consciousness entered the Divine Demon Diagram, he sensed the vast and boundless world. His divine consciousness touched different places in this world, feeling the powers of different divine demons. He also sensed the many divine consciousnesses that were cultivating in here.
“Oh?”
At this time, Ye Futian sensed a familiar divine consciousness. He followed it and found the region where the Divine Power of the pure-blooded dragon was at. Here, he felt the force of the Dragon G.o.d and saw the ancient Dragon G.o.d.
His divine consciousness materialized into a silhouette in the world. He looked in one direction and asked, “Princess, how come you’re in here too?”
As soon as he spoke, Donghuang Diyuan’s figure appeared in another direction.
She had received the Power of the Dragon Phoenix, so after she saw the Divine Demon Diagram, she wanted to come in here and study the Dragon Phoenix Divine Power, but she was caught by Ye Futian.
“You were the one who said that everyone can cultivate the gift from the Heavenly Path. Is there a problem?” Donghuang Diyuan asked. “Plus, aren’t people from your Ye Imperial Palace cultivating in the Divine Mountain?”
“What you said is naturally correct. I was just a bit surprised.” Ye Futian looked at Donghuang Diyuan with something like a half-smile, and his voice was a bit teasing.
Donghuang Diyuan did not respond and continued cultivating, which surprised Ye Futian.
This woman had been extremely arrogant before. How come she was more shameless now?
However, she had rejected Ji Wudao’s invitation before. The Nine Dragons True Qi had descended from the heavenly palace that Ji Wudao had been at, but she’d still been unmoved. After all, Ji Wudao wanted her to become the empress. Donghuang Diyuan naturally would not go there.
“Be my guest.” Ye Futian’s divine consciousness left this place after seeing that Donghuang Diyuan ignored him.
After a while, Ye Futian’s divine consciousness exited from the Divine Demon Diagram. He looked up into the sky. He could still sense the presence of the Heavenly Path. Eight divine items had descended from the Heavenly Path in the past 21 years.
Did the eight items correspond with the Eight Legions?
Did the Heavenly Path want to make the other Eight Legions surrender and have the Seven Realms and the Original Realm submit under the Heavenly Path?
This was possible.
Would more divine items descend?
This was not only Ye Futian’s thought. It was also the thought of all cultivators in the ninety-nine heavens. However, most cultivators believed that this was probably not possible.
After all, they’d grasped a rhythm in these 21 years. Since the eight divine items corresponded to the Eight Realms, there would be no more divine items naturally.
In addition, would the emperor’s fate of Donghuang the Great end ten years later?
Would Ye Futian be able to become emperor in these ten years?
No one knew.
Even if Ye Futian became an emperor, would he be able to sway Donghuang the Great?
Donghuang the Great himself was a prodigy and genius, unmatched in history. He reached enlightenment, became a Great Emperor, and ruled the Divine Prefecture. Countless people wors.h.i.+pped him, and he’d created a new era. In ten more years, he would have ruled the Divine Prefecture for 500 years. He had been an emperor for even longer, while Ye Futian had just become a Great Emperor. Could he engage Donghuang the Great in a battle?
Perhaps only time could tell.
Many people were a bit excited for the time to come. 21 years was like the blink of an eye. The last ten years would pa.s.s very quickly—in an instant.
Everyone was waiting to see, awaiting the changes of the world. Would the Buddhist clan’s prediction come true? Would the emperor’s fate of Donghuang the Great end?
