Ye Futian’s body levitated mid-air. With his white hair and dressed in white, his eyes were as bright as stars as they swept through the battlefield.

“Boom…” A loud sound resounded, and Ye Futian saw an implement shooting towards him in an attack. It was a golden wheel that cut straight through the space. It emitted a sharp, piercing sound, and even the fabric of space itself seemed to be torn apart under its immense speed.

However, Ye Futian’s silhouette was like a beam of light, and from where he stood, he vanished. The implement cut straight through his afterimage, and tore the mirage into pieces.

In the skies above Ye Futian looked at the person who attacked him. His opponent was a high-level Renhuang virtuoso.

The Jun Family knew that his combat abilities were extremely high. Unless they were high-level Renhuangs, they dare not fight him face to face.

The person who attacked was at the pinnacle of the seventh level of cultivation. It was only because of his cultivation level and the fact that he also had the support of an implement that he dared to attack Ye Futian. He wanted to see for himself just how strong Ye Futian was. He heard that Ye Futian killed many Renhuangs from his Jun Family. He was very curious to find out how true the rumors were, that Ye Futian was so powerful that a level-seven virtuoso could not even retaliate.

Raising his head, he saw Ye Futian floating in the skies above. In front of him, a sacred divine sword glowed brightly and whistled while it floated in the air. Above him, there was vaguely an ethereal form of a buddha. This buddha halo emanated an endless glow of the Great Path of the Buddha. The voice of the buddha permeated the space, and morphed into endless ancient scripts, radiating out in an instant. The Voice of the Great Path resounded throughout the heavens, and echoed in the eardrums of many people who then suffered attacks on their spiritual soul.

The level-seven Renhuang who tried to attack Ye Futian felt a buddha enter his mind. The Vajra Demon-slaying Rhythm sounded out through his mind, overwhelming him. His spiritual soul trembled violently, as though it was about to leave his body. Even his vision became a little blurry.

At that moment, he felt an extremely fearsome and murderous Sword Will. His heart could not help but beat violently. With a roar, his implement flew back to his body and revolved around him, guarding him by tearing apart the space in front of him.

When the divine sword descended in its attack, it was like a stream of swords descending from the nine heavens; destruction followed wherever it passed.

“Boom…”

With a thunderous sound, Ye Futian’s opponent’s implement cracked, and the power of the Great Path was split in half. The level-seven virtuoso retreated hastily, but the divine sword was faster. With a flash of the sword glow like lightning, the person was pierced straight down from his head. In his eyes was an intense fear.

He wanted to experience Ye Futian’s strength, and he had.

In an instant, he was killed.

Several people were paying attention to the battle over here; even the practitioners from various continents watching from afar were focused on this duel. Apart from the fights between the most powerful figures, everyone was most interested in Ye Futian’s strength. After all, all the conflicts leading to this battle stemmed from him, so naturally they were curious to find out just how strong this person in the rumors was.

They had witnessed his strength; a level-seven virtuoso was killed by him with just a thought. He did not even have a chance to retaliate.

“Vajra Demon-slaying Rhythm,” many older practitioners of the Penglai Continent whispered under their breaths when they saw the power of the Buddha that Ye Futian used. Among them, some had heard about the powers of the Buddha, and had also previously entered the Eastern Deity Island to cultivate in front of the Buddha cliff face. However, no one had truly managed to fully learn the techniques; they had all only managed to comprehend snippets of the technique. Even then, it was enough to strengthen their Way of Sonic Wave.

No one expected that one day a low-level Renhuang practitioner would inherit and fully comprehend this particular technique. Even more surprisingly, he had managed to incorporate it into his combat techniques in such a short time. Its power was extremely strong; the Rhythm of the Buddha caused his opponent to lose focus for a moment, and that resulted in him being slayed in one strike.

However, at that moment, an even more terrifying pressure shrouded Ye Futian. In the air above him, several high-level Renhuangs appeared in different locations. They were all level-seven high-level Renhuangs. They seemed to have discussed this strategy before the battle even started. The moment the battle started, they headed straight for Ye Futian with other virtuosos clearing the way for them.

Behind Ye Futian, Beigong Ao and the virtuosos from the Eastern Deity Island swiftly flew over, but the huge Renhuang army appeared before them, preventing from going to Ye Futian’s aid. Although just from the size of their armies, the Jun Family was not as strong as the Eastern Deity Island, but their armies were far more concentrated; their strength was focused around Ye Futian.

Killing Ye Futian was their goal, but waging war against the Eastern Deity Island was not their intention. However, given the current circumstance, they could only get rid of Ye Futian first. Perhaps once Ye Futian died, the Eastern Deity Island would give up and no longer be stubborn about waging war against them.

Terrifying Palaces of the Great Path floated above Ye Futian’s head. They were similar to the Divine Wheel of Jun Xiaoyao, leader of the Jun Family. It was obvious that they were all members of the Jun Family. Since they had the same spirit, the Divine Wheel that they forged would also be very alike.

A breath-stopping pressure pressed down from the heavens, causing the air in the entire area to become impossibly heavy. It was as though one could not even stand steadily. Ye Futian felt a limitless power pressing against him.

“Boom!”

The Divine Palaces hammered down. Aurorae of the Great Path stretched across the skies. These aurorae contained enough power to dominate and shatter any Great Path, and it was like they could flatten any and everything.

Ye Futian’s divine sword swept across the air; his Will of the Sword raged, whipping up a violent storm around him. However, the terrifying blades of light were continuously pulverized. A fearsome rumble reverberated throughout the skies, and the divine palaces descended, as though they were going to seal the heavens. In the face of this power, the Ye Futian below seemed to be especially miniscule and powerless.

“Is the Eastern Deity Island actually not going to help him?” the virtuosos onlooking from afar spoke aloud. Even though the Jun Family had a lot of virtuosos blocking the people from the Eastern Deity Island in their attempt to hunt Ye Futian down, the Eastern Deity Island certainly had the ability to render aid. However, they did not do this. Rather, they stayed outside the encirclement, holding their opponents back. Was this because they had confidence in Ye Futian?

The people attacking Ye Futian were all core members of the Jun Family, and were all level-seven high-level Renhuangs. When they unleashed their well-honed skills simultaneously, their powers resonated with each other, and the entire space would completely fall under their control. The region would morph into a Great Path Domain, and everything within it would be utterly dominated and shattered.

The endless divine palaces were about to hammer down on Ye Futian and smash him into smithereens, when all of a sudden Ye Futian’s body radiated an incomparably glorious green divine glow. In that instant, a divine tree appeared with his body at its center. Countless trees and branches sprouted and spread outwards, continuously winding towards the divine palaces that were closing in on him.

“An ancient tree?”

Many people let out a strange expression. Was this also his spirit?

The ancient tree was growing at a rate that was too terrifying, and it expanded out at a fearsome speed, eventually morphing into a divine tree that was tens of thousands of feet tall. Its incomparably thick trunk was even larger than a divine palace. The vines and branches that twirled towards the divine palaces were similarly extremely sturdy, emanating an unrivalled, green divine glow.

However, this was not what made the divine tree amazing. Normally, ancient trees were very weak and could be easily destroyed. This divine tree, however, seemed to have an unrivalled life force. The divine attacks of the Great Path that rained down on the divine tree actually failed to destroy it. Even if some of the branches were damaged, they grew out again in an instant.

Thus, a majestic view was formed in the region. A heaven-reaching ancient tree that was continuously growing, and its vines, branches and leaves that tangled around the divine palaces. It seemed like that divine tree had carved out a space for itself.

The powers of the divine palaces were subtly being weakened. The destructive powers of the Great Path seemed to have been completely restrained in that moment.

“This is…” The virtuosos who were observing the battle were all shocked. Was this Ye Futian’s Divine Wheel of the Great Path?

Was the sword not what he was well-versed in?

Many people know him as the white-haired Sword Emperor, since he had a sword-type Divine Wheel of the Great Path.

The practitioners who had been to the Core Island of the Eastern Deity Island let out a strange expression. That feeling that they had was very familiar; it was like they had experienced it before.

In the forbidden grounds of the Core Island of the Eastern Deity Island, they had also seen a divine tree. That tree had tortured them very horribly.

Now then, what did this divine tree mean?

They did not know that Ye Futian intentionally let them see this divine tree.

His Natal Spirit was the World Tree, which was also an ancient tree. Moreover, the World Tree very likely was closely related to very huge secrets. Previously, his foster father did not allow him to reveal it in front of others; now that he was in the Divine Prefectures, he had to be even more careful about it. Fortunately, he had gained a relic of the Great Path on the Eastern Deity Island that could work as his cover very nicely.

“He obtained the divine tree from the forbidden grounds. Could it be that…” The people who had entered the forbidden grounds had a sudden epiphany.

They recalled that there was a divine elixir. Did Ye Futian manage to obtain the elixir?

After coming out that day, Ye Futian was also similarly quite beaten. However, upon more careful recall, he seemed to be a little different from the rest at that time. His aura had changed a little. However, they all did not put it to heart. After all, they had all been quite unsuccessful and was utterly beaten up, so of course they believed that there was no way Ye Futian succeeded.

However, seeing the scene unfold before their eyes, as well as the Eastern Deity Island’s persistence in protecting Ye Futian, they vaguely started to feel that they might have been mistaken after all.

Ye Futian might have already obtained the divine elixir, so his value to the Eastern Deity Island would be extraordinary.

The leaves and branches of the ancient tree wrapped around the Divine Palaces of the Great Path, and even reached up into the heavens. The Renhuangs wanted to flee, but felt a chilly intent wash over them from the divine tree. The entire Space of the Great Path seemed to be frozen. Many people subtly felt that their blood circulations had become a lot slower, and they could not emanate their powers of the Great Path as smoothly.

More terrifyingly, at that moment, the voice of the buddha resounded straight into their minds, violently shaking their spiritual souls.

Layer upon layer of attacks of the Great Path hammered on them, leaving the high-level Renhuang virtuosos no chance to fend for themselves.

“-Oin…” The vines of the divine tree wrapped around their body, and channeled powers of Yin that infiltrated their bodies. They felt their strength leaving them drastically. Their aura of the Great Path exploded to its maximum in their attempt to escape.

However, at that moment, Divine Fire of the Great Path suddenly came alive. The interplay of Yin and Yang between the extremely cold will and horrifyingly burning hot air that flowed into their bodies simultaneously caused some groan.

In an instant, the level-seven Renhuangs in the air let out blood-curdling screams of pain. Their bodies were infiltrated by the flames of the Great Path, and they gradually faded away!
