The Legend of Futian

Chapter 2638: Together

“Insolent creature!”

Many cultivators looked at Ye Futian and thought his statement was too bold and arrogant. Whoever helped the people of Tianyan City would be acting against him…

Nevertheless, Ye Futian’s current combat effectiveness had indeed reached peak level, which was incredibly frightening. Aided by Buddha’s Celerity, he was practically in a position of invincibility.

Wang Xiao, with imperial arms, had absolute unparalleled combat power. But while the imperial arms may be useful against other people on this battlefield, Ye Futian was another story altogether. Wang Xiao dared not act recklessly because his attacks easily affected the others, while Ye Futian evaded them with ease.

Boom! A tremendously violent aura permeated Wang Xiao’s body as the Great Path protected him. Undulations of terrifying fluctuations of the Great Path spread out from him, washing over everything. At the same time, his body levitated into the air, heading higher into the sky, wanting to escape from the battlefield, which restricted him.

He couldn’t stay here any longer. Here, he could not fully exert the superiority of the imperial arms or its advantage.

Wang Xiao was extremely fast, moving in the direction of the great army from the Devil World. Obviously, he wanted to re-start the battle on the continent where the coalition forces from the Devil World were stationed. This way, if he were to explode with the full force of the imperial arms, it would only be the cultivators of the Devil World who were destroyed.

Before this, neither side had completely let loose in the fighting, or else more people would have died on both sides. But now, with the Reaper upon them, cultivators from all three realms of the Devil World were fighting and killing on the battlefield of the Divine Prefecture with no care. Wang Xiao wanted to make the others pay for their reckless slaughter.

Of course, there was another important reason. In fact, the City Lord of Tianyan had instructed Wang Xiao specifically not to be too ruthless on the battlefield in order to avoid a total impasse. After all, they were not yet an imperial-level principality, nor were they directly under the rule of Donghuang the Great. If they killed with too much abandon, they would face future backlash.

Furthermore, he knew the reality at the upper level of the world. The several Great Emperors who were now in control might be reluctant to allow the existence of two great emperors who were completely on the united front, which would disrupt the balance of the world.

In the future, if Wang Xiao became a Great Emperor himself, he would most definitely break away from the Divine Prefecture and establish himself somewhere else instead of being ruled under Donghuang the Great. Emperor Ye Qing’s death was a lesson from the past and a warning.

Meanwhile, Ye Futian was still somewhere in the void, unpredictable and untraceable. It seemed as if his existence could not be detected. Nonetheless, Shenyan Buddha Lord continued to attempt to locate Ye Futian and lock onto his position. He found that Ye Futian did not leave to chase Wang Xiao but remained in this area.

“He didn’t leave,” Shenyan Buddha Lord said to the others. Suddenly, he looked down at the City Lord of Tianyan and said, “Be careful.”

Boom… An astonishing sword-light of destruction fell down and aimed right at the City Lord of Tianyan. But at this moment, there was the Sound of Buddha lingering, resounding through heaven and earth, surrounding the City Lord of Tianyan. A gigantic Buddha appeared, and as the horrible sword light fell, the figure of Buddha collapsed.

Ye Futian lowered his head to glance at the land under the sky and saw that the City Lord of Tianyan had sustained some injuries. By taking advantage of his speed, it should have been a great opportunity to kill the City Lord of Tianyan, but at the last minute, Tongchan Buddha Lord’s intervention disrupted everything.

Naturally, Tongchan did not do so out of the kindness of his heart, nor was it compassion that drove him. The reason why he helped the City Lord of Tianyan may only be because Ye Futian and the City Lord of Tianyan were enemies and that the two were on absolute opposing sides.

Ye Futian disappeared and left.

“Much thanks to you, Buddha Lord,” the City Lord of Tianyan said to Tongchan Buddha Lord. Although he felt that he was strong enough on his own to face Ye Futian’s attack, Tongchan’s help was still a form of kindness to him.

“No need for the City Lord to thank me. This child had cultivated the six superpowers of Buddhism, and it was somewhat difficult to deal with. Buddhism has a certain responsibility to resolve the trouble this time around,” Tongchan Buddha Lord said, surrounded by the Light of Buddha. It seemed as if he was a truly compassionate being and that Ye Futian was a sinner that the Buddhist sect was responsible for, resulting in the collective guilt he expressed on behalf of the Buddhist sect.

Wang Xiao continued moving forward, but at this moment, he suddenly sensed something dangerous. His brows furrowed tightly, and his face had a terrible look on it. Behind him, a phantom of a heavenly deity appeared as the shocking power of Sky Tremoring expanded outward. Even if he was being ambushed, he was sure he could block the sneak attack.

The Sky Tremoring was held tightly in his hand, and a terrifying aura effused from the hammer itself.

At this moment, a figure appeared behind him.

In the void, a terrifying and massive palm print suddenly struck, directly passing through the shockwaves to get to him. At this point in time, Wang Xiao turned around and smashed the hammer down all in one go. It was as if he had been anticipating this exact scenario.

The imperial might flattened everything, and everywhere it passed through seemed to be destroyed as they collapsed. The scene was horrific to behold. Numerous shockwaves swept out and erased everything in front of him.

However, Ye Futian still could not be seen anywhere.

It seemed that what had attacked Wang Xiao just now was literally something that didn’t exist.

Suddenly, many phantoms of Ye Futian appeared all around Wang Xiao. Each figure was surrounded by the Light of Buddha as if each one of them had reincarnated as a Buddha. The Sound of Buddha reverberated between heaven and earth with traces of horrific Buddhist seals blasting down toward Wang Xiao in the area below.

“Break it for me!” The Sky Tremoring in Wang Xiao’s hand smashed hard toward the void, and the storm of destruction swept through once again. This time, all the phantoms in every direction were wiped out and destroyed, turning into nothingness.

Clearly, it was still useless to do so. Wang Xiao, as aided by the imperial arms, was extremely powerful and had far surpassed the level of the Second Tribulation Plane. Even someone at the near-deity existence was still unable to compete head-on with him.

If it weren’t for Ye Futian’s incomparable method, he couldn’t face Wang Xiao with the imperial arms, let alone hunt him down.

After having destroyed these many phantoms, Wang Xiao continued forward. Although Ye Futian was incomparable in his movement, he could not get close to Wang Xiao. More importantly, he had to make sure at all times that he was not being hit by Wang Xiao’s imperial arms.

When Wang Xiao was moving forward, despite Ye Futian’s figure continuously appearing in front of him, Wang Xiao did not stop for a moment. The Sky Tremoring attacked again and again, but it failed to find its target again and again. Each blast dealt frightening destruction. If anyone were to stay in this area, they would be immolated by the momentum.

Ye Futian couldn’t find a way to get close right away, but Wang Xiao was in the same boat. At this time, he was full of hostility, and all he wanted to do was destroy everything. He decided to start his fatal sweep somewhere.

Finally, they came to the continent where the great army of the Devil World was stationed. At this moment, Wang Xiao had nothing to fear anymore. He stood above the void, the shadow of the emperor appeared, as billions of shockwaves spread outward, reaching for the distance. That massive and mighty phantom of god in heaven raised the Heaven-shaking Divine Hammer, facing the continent where the cultivators from Devil World had congregated.

As soon as this Sky Tremoring unleashed, the great army of the Devil World would be wiped out. If so, Tianyan City would have made enemies with all three major realms.

However, now that all three major realms had joined forces with Ye Futian to take his life, how could he afford to be anything but?

Since it was destined that he was unable to defeat Ye Futian head-on, then he would slaughter these people to break the stalemate.

At this moment, a door of space appeared, and a figure appeared in front of Wang Xiao, blocking his way.

It was Mo Qingge, the Evil Sage from Empty Divine Realm.

Wang Xiao glanced at him. As the Evil Sage of the Empty Divine Realm, Mo Qingge’s strength was incredible. He was one of the most powerful existences in the Empty Divine Realm.

But even so, Wang Xiao couldn’t care less. With the Sky Tremoring in his hand, he was not afraid of anyone. Even if it was the Premier Demon Sage Yan Guiyi, he was still up for the fight.

Buzz! A horrible imperial might permeated the Sky Tremoring in his hand. Mo Qingge saw this, and his palms slammed forward. Immediately, numerous doors of spaces seemed to go on without end as they overlapped each other and continued forward, heading straight towards Wang Xiao.

The Sky Tremoring in Wang Xiao’s hand moved in front of him and smashed down hard. Terrifying shockwaves rushed into the doors of space. But all anyone could see was that the attack had been distorted as the shockwaves were deflected. Instead, they swept towards other directions along the doors of space without hitting Mo Qingge.

An incomparably powerful aura spread out from Mo Qingge, shrouding this infinite space. Even Ye Futian, who was in the distance, was also covered within, just like Wang Xiao.

“Domain world!” Ye Futian exclaimed when he beheld the sight. Everything in the world was changing, as if they were no longer in the original space they were in before but came to a totally different space.

Mo Qingge’s strength was incredible and touched upon that near-deity domain.

With this level of existence, his offensive power may not be as topnotch as Wang Xiao, who carried the imperial arms with him. However, his use of domains and his comprehension regarding the Path was something with which Wang Xiao could not hope to compare.

“If you want to slay someone in the Second Tribulation Plane who was aided by the imperial arms all by yourself, it’s quite impossible,” said Mo Qingge. “I will lend you a hand; whether you can kill him or not depends on your strength.”

Obviously, Ye Futian understood that. He did not think he could kill Wang Xiao, who possessed the imperial arms, by himself. He needed someone to distract Wang Xiao for him so that he had the chance to deal the fatal blow.

The three major realms of the Devil World were cooperating with him in the launch of this battle, and Wang Xiao was their ultimate target.

At the moment on the battlefield, the situation couldn’t be more obvious. All the cultivators were occupied, except Wang Xiao and Mo Qingge. Without Ye Futian, Mo Qingge might be in an unfavorable position. No matter what domain he reached, he still did not have the same kind of massive destructive power that Wang Xiao was capable of.

However, now with the addition of Ye Futian, there were some variables in play.

Although Ye Futian could not stop Wang Xiao, his Buddha’s Celerity could evade Wang Xiao forever and tangle him up endlessly. Now, with Mo Qingge, the Evil Sage, no one could know what that battle would actually look like.

“Very good!” Ye Futian nodded, not refusing his offer.

“Even the two of you, what can you do?!” Wang Xiao responded with coldness. Would two powerful cultivators enough to kill him. Just because they wanted to?
