The Legend of Futian

Chapter 2386: An Elder from the Devil World

Ye Futian lowered his head to look at the crowd beneath him. So, it seemed like they were forcing him to yield with another approach now that they had failed in their attempt to plunder his treasures.

How could he possibly lend them the sacred remains?

Who would lend their divine items to others? Most likely, none in the world would do so. The request itself was something outrageous.

In terms of their value, the sacred remains of Shenjia the Great Emperor were definitely more valuable than imperial arms. The former contained insights which would help the cultivators in cultivating. It contained the secrets of cultivation of Shenjia the Great Emperor, which would aid the cultivators in continually comprehending how the Great Emperor refined his divine body. This was also the reason why the cultivators of Tianyan City insisted on obtaining the sacred remains.

They desired to unveil all the secrets hidden in the sacred remains. They wanted to try duplicating the recipe and using it for manufacturing powerful weapons. Follow current s on novelenglish.net . Fire(.)nᴇt

Hence, it was impossible for Ye Futian to exchange the sacred remains with them. Aside from the concern that the body of Shenjia the Great Emperor was far more valuable than ordinary imperial arms, even if Ye Futian truly agreed to their request, there was still uncertainty of whether or not the other party would really exchange it with real imperial arms.

Ye Futian rejected the Lord directly, saying, “I have resonated with the body of Shenjia the Great Emperor, and it can be used to improve my combat ability. Naturally, I won’t use it for an exchange. I hope Senior can understand.”

The Lord of Tianyan City stared at the figure high above the sky, surrounded by dazzling divine light with a sharp gaze.

A formless might loomed over this part of the sky. The Lord of Tianyan City was a mighty existence. He unleashed his might, and everyone in the entire Heavenly Mandate City felt a suffocating pressure. Even Ye Futian’s spiritual soul that was shielded within the body of Shenjia the Great Emperor felt an extremely powerful aura suppressing him.

“What if I insist on having it?” said the Lord of Tianyan City. His aura turned even more menacing as divine light covered the entire space. It was as though he could attack Ye Futian right away with a mere thought.

A momentary silence followed right after he said this. Many cultivators from the top forces of the Divine Prefecture secretly rejoiced. Before this, they were worried that no one would take the lead to attack Ye Futian for fear of offending the Devil World. However, the Lord of Tianyan City paid no heed to such concern.

Besides that, his status was indeed extraordinary; he was capable of forcefully seizing the sacred corpse.

Ye Futian felt a powerful pressure acting on him. The halo of ancient characters shone above the divine body and withstood the pressure. Ye Futian’s gaze was as sharp as a blade as he stared at the Lord of Tianyan City, who was standing down below. He said, “Senior seems to be overconfident.”

“Am I ?” The Lord of Tianyan City cast a glance at the sky. A beam of divine light directly pierced the space. The rest of them couldn’t even catch a glimpse of the trajectory of this divine light. Ye Futian felt an immense sense of danger.

Rumble. Ye Futian’s aura burst forth as the Great Path roared in the divine body. A terrifying Sword Will slashed downwards without any hesitation. However, a beam of light shot straight up.

Bang!

With a loud thud, the sacred corpse was sent flying backward from the shockwave. Ye Futian’s spiritual soul, which was residing inside the corpse, shook violently. The crowd witnessed a beam of golden divine light penetrating the space. Deep and frightening fissures appeared between the two of them. Divine light merged into the dark fissures.

Powerful figures such as the Lord of Tianyan City could shatter the stability of the space with a casual attack, causing fissures to form in space. With a mere thought, his divine light could directly penetrate the space and land on his opponent, regardless of how far apart they were.

Even with the support of the divine body of Shenjia the Great Emperor, Ye Futian was no match for the Lord since their cultivation Planes were too far apart. With the help of the divine body, Ye Futian could defeat powerful cultivators who had survived the first tribulation of the Great Path. However, he was still somewhat helpless when faced with cultivators at the level of the Lord of Tianyan City.

Ye Futian’s spiritual soul, which was inside the sacred corpse, shook violently. Yu Sheng and Hua Jieyu came up beside him.

“I’m alright,” said Ye Futian while shaking his head. The two of them rested their worries when they heard him say this. They then looked at the Lord of Tianyan City with extremely cold gazes. A tremendous killing intent burned in their gazes.

The Lord of Tianyan City stepped in midair and traversed upwards.

However, right at this moment, a silhouette appeared in front of him. Demonic might churned and roared from this figure. He was frightening. He was definitely a top figure from the Devil World.

The aura of this demonic cultivator was alarming, but he appeared somewhat old. The Lord of Tianyan City was trying to figure out the other party’s identity based on his appearance.

Cultivators at such a level were rare in various worlds. They would at least be able to recognize each other by name. Even if they hadn’t met each other in person before, they would at least have heard of the other party. By right, the Lord would know of the existence of such a figure from the Devil World.

However, the Lord of Tianyan City didn’t really care about the person’s identity before him. He himself was one of the top existences in the Divine Prefecture. Only cultivators at the Great Emperor level could make him fearful.

“A cultivator from the Devil World is actually lending aid to a cultivator from the Original Realm?” questioned the Lord of Tianyan City. The aura of the demonic cultivator was imposing. It formed an absolute domain in the surroundings, inhibiting the Lord from attacking Ye Futian and the rest.

“Who is he?” The cultivators from the Divine Prefecture also looked at this demonic cultivator. With his old age, he did not seem to be one of the Demon Sages or Devil Generals from the Devil World. They had never heard of his existence before.

Unless...

The cultivators revealed contemplative expressions. Could it be that this demonic cultivator was a powerful existence from the previous generation?

In the history of the cultivation world, there have been countless prominent figures. The names of many of these figures had long been lost to the annals of history. However, it did not mean that they were no longer present. The higher a cultivator reached in terms of cultivation, the more they understood that there were still many unknown cultivators as well as powerful figures cultivating in seclusion out there in the world. They were all hidden from the world and unknown to all.

Buzz.

Divine light radiated, and the heavens and earth roared furiously. Frightening divine phenomena appeared behind the Lord of Tianyan City. A gigantic pattern appeared, and countless divine arms surged out from within it. It was as though each of these divine arms was the most powerful killing weapon in the world.

“Go!” commanded the Lord of Tianyan City.

In an instant, the space seemed to collapse and shatter. Endless divine light pierced through the heavens and earth, charging towards the demonic cultivator. The crowd saw frightening cracks appear and rampage the space.

However, right then, a terrifying spiral appeared behind the elder. Demonic might filled the sky. It was like a menacing black hole that consumed all powers. Even the cracks in space were being swept into it.

The divine arms that were charging towards him were immediately consumed by the black hole. They shot straight into it. The black hole was deep and appeared to be bottomless.

The eyes of the elder from the Devil World also became black holes. When he looked at the Lord of Tianyan City, he appeared to even consume the latter’s will.

Buzz.

An extremely sharp aura burst forth from the body of the Lord of Tianyan City. His gaze was frightening. Endless divine light shot out from his pupils as they locked gazes.

It was him. The Lord of Tianyan City felt his heart tremble as he recalled someone. This old monster had actually not died yet.

When some of the elders of the Divine Prefecture saw this scene, they seemed to figure something out. Their expressions changed slightly.

This old monster from the Devil World was actually still alive!
