The Legend of Futian

Chapter 2656: Shocks to the Seven Realms

A shock from outside the heavens!

At this moment, everyone in the Ziwei Segmentum could feel this rumble, and their hearts trembled along with it. Were they under attack again?

By now, there had been a dark cloud hovered over them psychologically.

However, they soon discovered that it was not an attack after all. They saw the glow above the firmament, which was endlessly radiant. It was terribly far away, and yet they could perceive it. One could imagine just how far and wide this glow’s coverage was and how brilliant the light was.

Otherwise, they would not have been able to see something so far away.

What is happening? countless people wondered.

Ye Futian didn’t know what was happening either. Inside the Ziwei Imperial Palace, many people levitated into the sky as they looked higher into the heavens. All of them appeared surprised.

“Palace Lord!”

“Master!” many people called out to Ye Futian.

“Come with me to take a look,” Ye Futian said, and a group of people moved along with him, heading outside the heavens. They were moving fast and shuttled through the void. It didn’t take them long before they were outside of the bounds of the Ziwei Segmentum. The glow had diffused and Illuminated the boundless space, lighting up the space of void outside the Ziwei Segmentum.

Ye Futian felt a peculiar aura. It seemed as if the space in the void was no longer a void and that the divine light, which continued to spread, seemed intent on illuminating and shrouding over the entire Original Realm.

“This…” Ye Futian felt something unusual. It seemed these strange visions were displayed. The Original Realm may be facing some drastic changes that have yet to come.

Exactly what kind of power could have such an effect on the Original Realm?

The Original Realm was a broken world resulting from the collapse of the Heavenly Path. It had an endless number of empty spaces. But now, this power seemed to be restoring the Original Realm. What kind of power was capable of such a terrifying effect?

Ye Futian walked towards the divine light. That area seemed to be expanding towards the Original Realm. The divine light, likewise, was growing as well.

“What a strong will of the Great Path!” Lord Chen exclaimed. That extremely pure atmosphere of the Great Path astonishing even him.

After a long time, they finally got a clue. The place where the divine light was spreading outward seemed to be a vast expanse of barren land with absolutely no signs of life, a veritable desert.

In that desert landscape, there was an incomparable will of the Great Path that continued to spread outward, and it seemed to be a different will of the Great Path.

That barren land was like the land from prehistorical times, primordial and greatly transmuted. Many magnificent buildings were resurrected in that barren land, including some impressive statues. What he saw in front of him greatly impacted Ye Futian’s senses.

“What place is this?” the cultivators from Ziwei Imperial Palace couldn’t help but marvel.

“Like a world from before our time,” someone whispered.

Many people agreed that the ancient aura seemed to be from long ago.

“The tombs of the gods!” Ye Futian murmured as it finally dawned on him what it was. No wonder he thought that it felt familiar.

Once upon a time, he had seen it, just that one time.

That was over a hundred years ago when they were in the Nine Realms. Donghuang Imperial Palace had ordered Empty Imperial Palace to open up the God’s relic so that the premier figures from the Nine Realms may enter. At the time, many people, including Xia Qingyuan, Ye Wuchen, and he had gone inside. There were many opportunities within, which Yaya and Xia Qingyuan had both obtained.

Finally, when he received the inheritance of the great emperor, his vision seemed to have penetrated the space and saw the tombs of the gods.

Presumably, it was everything that he was seeing before him.

God’s Relic, also known as the tombs of the gods, whose entrance seemed to be controlled by Donghuang the Great, was located in the Original Realm.

Now, the tombs of the gods had reappeared in the world.

“The tombs of the gods!” The cultivators trembled when they heard Ye Futian’s words. Many of them had also heard of such a place before.

According to legends, when the Heavenly Path collapsed in ancient times, a battle had erupted among all the gods; it was known as the dusk of the gods.

In that battle, the Heavenly Path collapsed, and the gods perished. Countless years later, the world of today was formed.

These tombs of the gods were the battleground where the gods fought in ancient times. Was this the place that all the gods were buried?

“In ancient times, the eruption of the battles among the gods caused the collapse of the Heavenly Path. The Original Realm was what was left of the former world and became known as the tombs of the gods. However, who was it that sealed off the tombs of the gods?” someone whispered with much curiosity.

What was the reason for the battlefield of the gods to be sealed by itself after the Heavenly Path had collapsed, and why was it not a broken world?

Or rather, had this ancient battlefield been formed all by itself?

Of course, it was next to impossible to find an honest answer to any of these speculations. However, the appearance of the tombs of the gods had already given them the shock of their lives.

“It is possible that this was a well-preserved ancient world,” Ye Futian whispered. They continued to move in that direction, feeling the atmosphere of the Great Path that spread towards the Original Realm. He guessed that this place might be leftover from ancient times. What was known as the tombs of the gods was the battleground of the gods once upon a time, a primordial world.

The tombs of the gods and the fall of the gods were just a way of indicating the event’s occurrence.

“No wonder its aura of the Great Path was so pure—much purer than the aura of the Great Path in today’s world. If one can cultivate and prove the way here, their Divine Wheel of the Great Path has to be perfect,” some Renhuang remarked, and Ye Futian nodded in agreement. Back then, when the people from the Nine Realms had entered the God’s relic, it was because they wanted to use the God’s relic to enhance their Renhuang realm, casting the perfect Divine Wheel of the Great Path.

The Great Path aura is spreading over the entire Original Realm. Perhaps it will shroud the Original Realm again, and the sight of the ancient world may reappear once again in Original Realm? someone wondered. If so, the Original Realm might become THE major world of them all.

All the major worlds would be coming to compete for a piece of the Original Realm.

Of course, none of these were the main concerns at the moment. The Original Realm aside, just the reappearance of the tombs of the gods was enough to set the whole world abuzz. An unknown number of cultivators would indeed show up here soon.

Perhaps, it would be another impending storm of blood and violence.

At this time, Ye Futian and the others were approaching that area, but many other cultivators were also moving in that direction from different areas inside the Original Realm.

The appearance of the tomb of the gods had covered the boundless space with endless divine light, which the entire Ziwei Segmentum could see. It was the same at other places as well. Everyone who was cultivating in the Original Realm was rushing toward the direction where the tombs of the gods were located.

At this time, in the Donghuang Imperial Palace of the Divine Prefecture, Donghuang the Great opened his eyes and said, “Let it be known that in the land of the Original Realm, the tombs of the gods have been opened, and tell the eighteen Domain Chief’s Manors to inform cultivators everywhere. At the same time, open up the passageways to the Original Realm so that all the cultivators may go there.”

This voice resounded throughout Donghuang Imperial Palace, and the vast domain of the imperial palace was trembling because of it. Many people, including top cultivators inside the imperial palace, had come out of their place of cultivation and looked in the direction where the voice was coming from.

“You too, go,” said Donghuang the Great. Everything that happened inside the imperial palace did not escape his attention.

“Yes, Your Majesty.” One voice after another was heard replying as the cultivators of Donghuang Imperial Palace set out on their journey. At the same time, the news quickly traveled to all eighteen Domain Chief’s Manors, then moved on to inform the entire Divine Prefecture.

And it was not just limited to the Divine Prefecture, but also the other worlds.

The reappearance of the tombs of the gods had electrified all seven realms!
