The Legend of Futian

Chapter 2399: Peak Beneath the Emperor

Ye Futian surveyed the area below and saw Fang Ru drift upwards. In the sky high above, he stood there quietly, surrounded by divine light. A brilliant image radiated outward from his location. It was a splendid vista, a scaled-down version of a much larger world.

“Vision of the World!”

Everyone raised their heads to looked around Fang Ru. The vision that appeared was an entity all on its own. The power of the surrounding heaven and earth poured into it with insanity. It was as if the Vision of the World was a world of a higher degree that could borrow the power of the Great Path from the outside world and integrate it into this tiny world to be used.

Fang Ru stood there quietly, unbelievably tranquil. Just by standing there casually, it was clear that all the power from the heavens was under his control as if he was the master of this universe.

“It seems that Fang Ru has already been exploring that kind of realm. His Splendid Vista is now become more developed, forming a world of its own. The rules inside of it have already surpassed the rules of the Great Path on the outside world.” Some top cultivators marveled silently as they witnessed the sight.

Fang Ru was a powerful existence who had achieved his fame millenniums ago. For countless years, he must have been pursuing and exploring that supreme realm, seeking a breakthrough, hindered only by the shackles of Heavenly Path. Presumably, the two had struck a deal for him to follow Donghuang the Great willingly. Perhaps, Donghuang the Great had agreed to give him some guidance here and there.

Otherwise, as a supreme existence, Fang Ru did not need to condescend to protect the daughter of Donghuang the Great. Except for pursuing the most supreme realm of them all, someone like Fang Ru did not need to ask for anything else, much less obey someone else and act the role of a glorified guard.

Unless it was the temptation of breaking through that realm that caused his change of heart...

“Would you like to create your own rules of the world? How difficult is it to break the shackles of the Heavenly Path? How can a person even begin to embark on that legendary road?” Many people had the same questions, especially those who had already survived the Divine Tribulation of the Great Path; they were full of curiosity and anticipation. For those at that realm, there weren’t many things that could interest them enough to become an actual passion.

They could clearly feel that Fang Ru might have taken a small step forward already. He stood there, and the world around him seemed to be at his disposal.

Above the firmament, Ye Futian perceived Fang Ru’s mighty strength. This may be the strongest existence he had seen so far, other than the teacher, whose true strength was still a mystery. However, Fang Ru, as he stood in front of him, gave him a sensation that was entirely different from the others. It was tremendously powerful.

But at this time, he was no longer himself in the common sense of the word. In the Ziwei Segmentum, he was its de facto master. He, whose will could be mashed with the will of Ziwei the Great, had all the stars in the heavens at his command.

Or, one could say that within this starry sky, he was someone akin to a god.

At this moment, he saw that Fang Ru had made a move below, and he was coming towards the starry sky. Suddenly this vast world seemed to be shaken because of him.

Ye Futian glanced at the area below, and his thoughts shifted. Suddenly, a supreme coercion came from the sky, surrounded by the stars. When Fang Ru was on his way up, all these stars emitted the most brilliant starlight. It came down upon Fang Ru at the same time. It was a stunning sight when countless starlight began to fall at the same time, every starlight containing the might of the Way.

Buzz! The starlight illuminated the area where Fang Ru was, but it was blocked from the outside. The imagery of the vista around Fang Ru was like a true scaled-down world. When the starlight fell, it failed to penetrate that world, unable to break through its defense.

What was even more frightening was that all the power of the heavens seemed to be guarding surround Fang Ru, resonating with the world he created.

His speed was so fast that it approached the limits of what was possible. It was hard to detect with the naked eye as he rushed directly above the firmament.

The cultivators below could no longer see any trace of Fang Ru. There was only a ray of light, which seemed to have already entered into that brilliant starry sky world and headed towards the heaven full of stars. This chapter is updated by Noᴠel Fɪre.net - ɴovᴇlbin

Because Ye Futian was leveraging the will of Ziwei the Great, he was able to merge with a heaven full of stars. Fang Ru had now actually gone over to attack, attempting to capture Ye Futian.

Above the firmament, everyone saw that the light became even more radiant. Only those top cultivators could perceive the situation taking place in the starry sky.

The stars in the heavens seemed to be moving like real stars, gigantic and massive. These humongous stars turned into meteors and slammed down at Fang Ru. The power that was generated from the stars that turned into meteors was plenty frightening. At the same time, many meteors fell, slamming into Fang Ru and his miniature world.

Rumble... The sky seemed to be shaking fiercely. Fang Ru raised his head and looked up. Instantly, all the power of the heavens seemed to vibrate and resonate with him. He raised his palm, and the heavens trembled. Infinite power of the Great Path gathered around as if affected by his every move.

The gestures of his hands seemed to influence the entire world. What a terrifying existence! Even peak Renhuang and those who had survived the Divine Tribulation of the Great Path felt this tremendous shakeup.

How strong was someone who had achieved his fame millenniums ago?

As if just by a simple gesture of raising a finger pointing the void and instantly, the sky was thoroughly shaken up. Those falling meteors that came blasting down were attacked at the same moment. Streams of light rushed above the stars.

Boom... It seemed that the sky was collapsing. The people below were shocked to see that the stars were exploding and being destroyed. It seemed as if they had been attacked by an inconceivable force, and all of them collapsed at the same moment. Any star attacking Fang Ru’s direction was ultimately crushed in this madness.

“Incredible!”

The hearts of many trembled. Was this kind of power possible for mere mortals?

None of them had expected that such incredulously terrifying power could be possible at the very peak of cultivation. If so, what kind of unimaginable power did the Great Emperor possess?

Even Ye Futian was awed by Fang Ru’s might. When he saw that so many stars had shattered and exploded, he clearly perceived that all the stars were attacked simultaneously. Under Fang Ru’s finger, the power of the Great Path in all the heavens resonated with him. They blasted upon all the stars despite the spatial distance.

He seemed to be able to take over the control of the Great Path power inside this world.

Ye Futian had never come into contact personally with this kind of incredible power. Although he had slayed existences who survived the second Divine Tribulation of the Great Path, he did not do so, relying purely on his own strength. Leveraging the power of Ziwei the Great was not equivalent to using the power that belonged to himself. He hadn’t yet reached that level, so it was difficult for him to really understand what that realm would feel like.

Fang Ru’s mighty strength made Ye Futian realize that it would be impossible to stop Fang Ru without the power of Ziwei the Great. Most likely, this man was standing at a level closest to and just beneath that of the Great Emperor.

As his mind turned, it was as if he had entered into a state of selflessness. At this moment, the stars in all the heavens were shining at the same time the heavenly might descended. The phantom of Ziwei the Great became clearer; it was as if the Great Emperor had begun to awaken. Accompanied by the incoming heavenly might, even Fang Ru felt the pressure now as he raised his head to take on that gigantic phantom of the Great Emperor!
