The Legend of Futian

Chapter 2250: Ye Futian’s Confidence

Watching the Sun God Sword continue to slam down for the kill and the group of cultivators in the void, Ye Futian knew that he had no choice but to give it all he had.

Not to mention, there were cultivators from the Dark World and Empty Divine Realm following closely behind them. Fighting was the only option.

When his thought turned to this, someone suddenly appeared in front of Ye Futian. This figure was dazzling with divine light in a stunning physical form. It released a terrifying light, which seemed to be cast from infinite characters.

Buzz! The cultivators from Ziwei Imperial Palace, who were close by, moved away from Ye Futian when they saw this. Their hearts beat wildly.

It was a physical form that would inspire awe in one’s heart.

In the void, the eyes of many major figureheads sharpened as their hearts trembled violently. Especially those from the Shangqing Domain, they were every one of them revealing a dazzling light. It was as they stared at the body that had manifested.

Rather, it was not really a body at all but a corpse.

“The body of Shenjia the Great Emperor.” The cultivators from Shangqing Domain shuddered as they came to this realization. Top cultivators from other domains clearly became aware of what it really was. Only the sacred remains, the body of deity, could be the source of such frightening power.

However, what did Ye Futian mean to do by releasing the sacred remains at this time?

Was he not afraid of it being taken by the others?

People from the Shangqing Domain had experienced the horror of the sacred remains. Of course, it was controlled by the teacher from Four Corner Village last time. However, this time, it was Ye Futian who brought out the sacred remains. Could it be that he could now control the sacred remains after having cultivated for a period of time?

But how could he achieve this in his realm?

As their eyes were fixed in that direction, those cultivators, who were on Ye Futian’s side, were much relieved. It seemed that Ye Futian had kept some aces in his pocket, or else he would not have returned so quickly.

It was not so easy to take him down and kill him just like that.

At this time, Ye Futian released an extremely brilliant divine light, and ancient tree branches started spreading, turning into countless air currents. They blended into the corpse of Shenjia the Great Emperor, infiltrating it little by little. At the same time, an elusive figure transposed on top of Ye Futian. It was a shadow of himself. His eyes seemed to be opened as he moved towards the body of Shenjia the Great Emperor, attempting to enter and integrate with it.

Under everyone’s gaze, the shadow and those infinite air currents entered the sacred remains as if attempting to control the body of Shenjia the Great Emperor by way of his spiritual soul. This sight made all those from the Shangqing Domain more than a little nervous.

Could it be that Ye Futian was really able to do it?

If he had the same ability as the teacher from Four Corner Village, how unimaginably frightening would that be?

That’s simply impossible!

They thought that even if the teacher from Four Corner Village had taught something to Ye Futian, the fact remained that Ye Futian’s realm was far inferior to that of the teacher. How could he control the sacred remains like the teacher did and cause such superior combat power to erupt?

Nonetheless, even if Ye Futian could really control the sacred remains, the fighting power that he could draw from it was bound to be more limited.

This was the only way the people from the Shangqing Domain could console themselves.

In the Shangqing Domain, there was already an unfathomable teacher in the village, along with some other cultivators who were very powerful and terrifying in their own right. If there was now another person like Ye Futian, who could completely control the corpse of Shenjia the Great Emperor, would there be any foothold left for anyone else in the future?

Perhaps soon, the Domain Chief’s Manor would no longer be able to control this new force that was the Four Corner Village.

Zhou Muhuang was also among the crowd. As the Vice Chief of the Shangqing Domain Chief’s Manor, he did not participate.

At this moment when he saw Ye Futian’s spiritual soul separated in an attempt to take over control of the corpse of Shenjia the Great Emperor, his heart couldn’t help but trembled violently. He had fancied Ye Futian’s talent back then and wanted to recruit him into the Domain Chief’s Manor to cultivate. He had even asked Zhou Lingxi to befriend Ye Futian for that very purpose.

However, Ye Futian was unmoved, as he had no intention of entering the Domain Chief’s Manor at all. He preferred to remain in Four Corner Village to cultivate and rejected his overture.

Later, Ye Futian alone comprehended the method contained within the sacred remains of Shenjia the Great Emperor. Following that, many cultivators participated in the siege of Four Corner Village, which ended with the teacher’s shocking battle that suppressed all those who attacked.

After that, Ye Futian cultivated in Four Corner Village for a time then came to the Lower Worlds with them.

Now, did he actually manage to control the corpse of Shenjia the Great Emperor?

When he thought of this, Zhou Muhuang felt some conflicted emotions in his heart, even a sense of jealousy regarding Ye Futian. With his own extraordinary realm, if he could gain control of Shenjia the Great Emperor’s corpse, it would definitely be another kind of comprehension that would have helped him impact a higher realm. But what he could not have accomplished, that no one in the entire Shangqing Domain could have accomplished, was achieved by Ye Futian. He was now a singular existence.

At this time, the Sun God Sword above Ye Futian and the others had already penetrated. The Divine Fire of the Sun was extremely horrific as it torched all existence with what seemed to be an unstoppable force. The cultivators from Ziwei Imperial Palace wanted to block it only to hear a voice command, “Get out of the way and protect my body.”

When that voice fell, the eyes of the Shenjia the Great Emperor opened, and an extremely dazzling divine light shot out, which penetrated the void like an indestructible divine sword. At the same time, the body of Shenjia the Great Emperor seemed to come alive once more, as the emperor who had returned.

Those eyes were tinged with an undeniable iciness as well as a faint sense of contempt. It was as if they contained both the will of Shenjia the Great Emperor and Ye Futian, that they were of the same entity.

Boom!

As soon as he stepped on the ground, even more terrifying cracks appeared, chasing into the distance. The body of Shenjia the Great Emperor moved at last. It turned into a terrible divine light, surrounded by infinite ancient characters. His body rocketed into the sky until it perched above the firmament.

The Sun God Sword fell but was caught by Shenjia the Great Emperor directly without hesitation, as he reached out and grasped unto the sword. The terrifying Divine Fire of the Sun instantly invaded and shrouded the body of Shenjia the Great Emperor as if trying to burn him up completely.

However, these were the sacred remains. How could they be refined by the Divine Fire of the Sun?

“This…” The hearts of all the cultivators who witnessed this scene beat violently. Was he trying to grab the Sun God Sword with his own bare hands?

Among those who were present, who would dare to attempt such a feat?

Perhaps only Ye Futian would. He who had control over the body of Shenjia the Great Emperor dared to catch the divine sword with his bare hands. The corpse of the Great Emperor had not been corrupted for centuries, undying and indestructible. The Divine Fire of the Sun was not released by the gods, after all, so how could it destroy a corpse like the Great Emperor’s?

Suddenly, the hand of Shenjia the Great squeezed, and under the shocking gaze of everyone, the Sun God Sword cast by the sun’s divine light was broken up bit by bit and begin to self-destruct. The body of Shenjia the Great Emperor was moving upward as the Sun God Sword continued to shatter, creating a terrifying field of fire around it. Even though the body of Shenjia the Great Emperor was bathed in this field of fire, it didn’t appear to be aware of it.

When Shenjia the Great Emperor was alive, he was a supreme existence who dared to battle the Heavenly Path!
