Chapter 2845: The Unrest in Heaven Realm
The news of this battle in the Heaven Realm soon spread. After all, this battle had been witnessed by many.
Ji Wudao had kept a low profile for many years, and now he had stunned the world. Ever since the battle at the relic of the Old Heaven Court, every time Ji Wudao appeared after that would bring a terrible shock to the world.
Now, his caliber was close to that of the Heavenly Emperor previously.
In the Heavenly Imperial Palace, he had been named as the Heavenly Emperor—the current Emperor who was in charge.
Just as the world thought that he was still a bit away from reaching the Imperial Realm, they didn’t expect that he would be able to slay an ancient emperor with a perfect Great Path. How shocking of a feat it was!
Ever since the significant changes in the world, there had been several battles, and each battle inevitably subverted the world’s understanding.
In the battle at the Ye Imperial Palace, Haotian the Great failed to take down Ye Futian. Afterward, in the battle at Haotian Clan, Ye Futian, as a Great-Emperor-To-Be, fought two emperors at the same time and managed to wound one of the two emperors. It wasn’t until Donghuang the Great himself intervened that Ye Futian was stopped.
It was also the battle at the Haotian Clan that Donghuang the Great took action himself. His actual person was in Donghuang imperial Palace while his divine power crushed Ye Futian. The Great Path Divine Realm of Haotian the Great was ignored by both.
Then, there was the battle of the Heaven Realm, during which Ji Wudao had cut down some Great Emperor in a blink of an eye. No one had even had the chance to know which emperor he was before Ji Wudao killed him.
Ji Wudao’s move was also meant to remind those who cultivated in the ninety-ninth heaven. Those cultivators had promised before they were allowed to enter the Heavenly Imperial Palace to cultivate. If they ever intended on breaking that promise and leaving the Heavenly Imperial Palace after they proved the realm of the Great Emperor, they would be killed without exception.
Ji Wudao deliberately killed his opponent outside the Heavenly Path, obviously to let the world witness his true strength. Conceivably, few people would dare to attempt the same in the future.
Cultivators from all the worlds truly felt the difference brought on by the great changes between heaven and earth. Perhaps, they were now in a transitional phase, and a new era would follow. Or, in some sense, the moment the G.o.ds’ Ruins Continent revealed itself, a new era had already begun.
However, after the battle, major news was being pa.s.sed around, and it was about Ji Wudao’s crime.
It was said that Ji Wudao had cultivated the extremely ruthless Great Path Divine Method.
When the G.o.ds’ Ruins Continent appeared, in addition to inheriting the relics of the Old Heavenly Court, Ji Wudao had pillaged and plundered. Many cultivators were secretly killed by Ji Wudao, swallowed up by him to absorb these opponents’ abilities as his own.
In that battle not long ago, he had even devoured a cultivator who was a Great Emperor.
The unorthodox method that Ji Wudao cultivated would bring disaster to the world.
Especially now, he had inherited the throne of the Heavenly Emperor, aided by the Heavenly Path. His goal was to devour all the worlds and use this Heavenly Path to control the land of the Seven Realms.
Once this news spread, countless other opinions emerged. Everyone thought that this must be the revenge of the Heavenly Path.
The news of the ancient battle had spread as well. The battle that caused the collapse of the Heavenly Path many years ago was now known to the world. They speculated that this micro Heavenly Path was left over by the Heavenly Path of yesteryears. As the descendant of Deva, Ji Wudao, who had inherited the throne of the Heavenly Emperor, was now ready to take revenge on the world. He planned to regain control of everything and take charge of the order in the Seven Realms.
Ji Wudao was the spokesperson of the Heavenly Path today, just like the Lord of Deva in ancient times.
Furthermore, this news was deemed credible by countless other people who believed in these rumors. After all, what they had seen was indeed very similar to the rumors. Otherwise, it was impossible to explain the existence of the Heavenly Path at the ninety-ninth heaven and Ji Wudao.
Everyone was speculating on how the six Great Emperors of today would deal with this matter?
Would they directly invade the Heaven Realm?
It was possible to infer the strength of the six emperors from the strength displayed by Donghuang the Great. Undoubtedly, they must be greater than those returning Great Emperors, so the question was whether their strength ruled higher than Ji Wudao’s?
However, in the ninety-ninth heaven, Ji Wudao still had the help of a slice of the Heavenly Path, which, as many in the world estimated, was the reason why the six emperors did not show up at the ninety-ninth heaven once upon a time.
Just as this news had spread to all corners of the world, another shocking news followed on its heel.
Donghuang the Great and the daughter of the Heavenly Emperor were husband and wife back then. Donghuang Diyuan was the progeny of Donghuang the Great and the daughter of the Heavenly Emperor. This was a top-secret, known only by very few people. Since forever, no know had ever known who was the queen of the Divine Prefecture.
Now, the world found out that the wife of Donghuang the Great was the daughter of the Heavenly Emperor, and it was rumored that she was an unparalleled figure whose talent surpa.s.sed those from the past or present. She might even have reigned above Donghuang the Great himself.
As soon as this news became public, it immediately caused a great sensation. Everyone thought of two things. Ji Wudao had always had a soft spot for Donghuang Diyuan and gave in to her requests many times before. Even when the two of them fought in the relics of the Old Heaven Court, Ji Wudao did his best to avoid an all-out war. Afterward, in the ninety-ninth heaven, Ji Wudao wanted her to bathe in the Nine Dragons True Qi together, to become the Queen of Heaven Realm.
Then, there was that time when Di Hao of the Human Realm proposed marriage to Donghuang Diyuan, but it was flatly rejected by Donghuang the Great. It was a rather insulting refusal because he made it very clear that he didn’t think Di Hao was worthy.
So this was it!
Donghuang the Great, and a wife who was even more outstanding than himself. This was why Donghuang the Great was so fond of Donghuang Diyuan.
So, with this relations.h.i.+p, would the Heaven Realm join forces with the Divine Prefecture?
Ji Wudao was the current Heavenly Emperor, and Donghuang Diyuan was the descendant of the Heavenly Emperor’s daughter. What would happen when the Heaven Realm allied with the Divine Prefecture if they were to be united?
Ye Futian, who was cultivating in Ye Imperial Palace, also received the news.
At this time, many cultivators in Ye Imperial Palace came out of Ye Futian’s micro Heavenly Path and listened to the reports of those who came.
“Donghuang the Great, the daughter of the Heavenly Emperor.” Ye Futian raised his head and looked at the sky, remembering what the Supreme Swordlord once said about the daughter of the Heavenly Emperor.
The daughter of the emperor was unparalleled in the past or present. Without her, the world would be colorless!
As the truth about the world continued to emerge, many things would eventually surface.
What about his own origin?
Perhaps it would soon be revealed.
How much more was hidden in this world?
“There must be someone who deliberately spread the news,” Fang Gai thought for a moment before he said. These things were secrets, which those at the top should only know, but they were now spreading all over the world. Clearly, somebody was leaking this information.
“Mmm,” Ye Futian nodded and said, “I’ve noticed something strange about Ji Wudao before, but it was just some speculation, without any substantiation. Apparently, someone has been paying attention to Ji Wudao or paying attention to all the top figures in the world. For his deeds to be exposed and spread quickly, only imperial-level forces could accomplish that.”
Among the six imperial-level forces, who was the most likely candidate?
“Has any of the imperial palaces acted?” Ye Futian asked.
“We heard that the Human Realm has sent messengers to every realm, wanting to hold the sword of justice and judge Ji Wudao of the Heaven Realm.”
“Sword of justice?” Ye Futian said with a touch of sarcasm.
The Human Ancestor was an existence from ancient times who claimed to be in charge of justice in the Human Realm. However, was he truly just?
“It seems that the news most likely was released by the Human Realm,” Ye Futian guessed. “I’m afraid there will be another unrest coming.”
