The Legend of Futian

Chapter 2664: The New Replaces The Old

In the sky above, the divine roc fixed its gaze on Ye Futian as it said, “Your movement techniques are mysterious. You are not only relying on speed. However, if you plan to continue dodging my attacks using your movement techniques, perish your thoughts of entering the relic.”

With a flash, it returned to its original spot. This caused the cultivators who had their eyes fixed on the relic after it left to feel threatened.

Its gigantic body stood guard in front of the dilapidated relic. It seemed like no one could set their foot in the relic as long as the beast was there.

Ye Futian drifted towards the relic and appeared in front of the divine roc once again. He said, “My movement techniques are part of my abilities as well, aren’t they?”

“If it weren’t for the fact that I’m restricted in terms of the distance I can travel, you would be no match for me when it comes to movement techniques,” the divine roc said arrogantly as it swept a glance at Ye Futian. During its heyday, it was unrivaled among the peers of the same plane in terms of its speed.

Ye Futian smiled and replied, “Since Senior is also aware that you are restricted here, why don’t you put down your burden and allow me to inherit the teachings in the relic? After that, you can follow me, and we can cultivate together. Isn’t that a win-win situation for both of us?”

The divine roc was stunned as it stared at Ye Futian. Then, a menacing aura burst forth from its body.

“Follow you? You speak so presumptuously,” admonished the divine roc with its croaky voice. It glared at Ye Futian as it said, “It looks like my temper has mellowed as I aged. A youth actually dares to act so brazenly in front of me.”

As the divine roc said this, it opened its mouth with its head facing upwards and sucked in a mouthful of air. A terrifying gale was immediately stirred up as the vast space warped. The currents of the Great Path surged into its mouth frenziedly. The storm seemed capable of engulfing all the powers of the Great Path.

The surrounding cultivators had a hard time maintaining their balance. Some Renhuangs were directly sent flying by the gale and were swept towards the mouth of the divine roc.

One by one, the Renhuangs were swallowed by the enormous divine roc before they could even react.

“Be careful!” someone exclaimed. The facial expressions of many cultivators changed drastically. Let alone Renhuangs; even Tribulation Plane cultivators could not withstand the gale. Some cultivators who had undergone Two Divine Tribulations of the Great Path could not withstand the Power of Devouring and were swept towards the divine roc.

At the location where the cultivators of Ziwei Imperial Palace were, Lord Chen responded to this menacing gale right away. He enveloped all the cultivators with his powerful Celestial Way, preventing the Power of Devouring from sucking them away.

However, the storm grew more and more menacing. The Power of Devouring forbade the existence of all the other powers of the Great Path in this vast space. Everything would eventually be consumed by it.

Ye Futian faced the strongest Power of Devouring. It was because the divine roc unleashed this terrifying power with him as the target, to begin with. However, he remained standing steadfast amidst the raging storm. He was not shaken. His gaze was fixed on the divine roc before him.

Nevertheless, he similarly felt a terrifying might pressing down on him. This overwhelming storm restricted his powers of the Great Path.

Buzz.

Right now, instead of retreating, Ye Futian charged towards the divine roc. Riding on the current of the gale, he shot himself straight into the mouth of the divine roc. At the same time, the divine light of the Great Path flowed over his body, transforming it into an awe-inspiring divine body. An unparalleled Sword Will moved around him. At this moment, it was as though he had turned into a divine sword that moved along with the current.

One by one, divine swords materialized amidst the howling storm. Each and every sword contained shocking divine light and was ready to penetrate the body of divine roc.

The divine roc narrowed its eyes. It exhaled and vomited out all the cultivators whom it had swallowed. Furthermore, the gale switched directions and pushed Ye Futian back to his original spot. The divine roc stared at the Sword Will, which continued to flow around Ye Futian. Obviously, the divine roc was cautious and did not dare swallow Ye Futian whole.

Ye Futian suggested, “Senior, since you think I am dodging all your attacks with my movement techniques, why don’t we face each other head-on?”

“We can as long as you are bold enough to try,” the divine roc responded.

Ye Futian put his hands together, and the Light of Buddha spread far and wide, enveloping the vast space. In the heavens above, silhouettes of Buddhas appeared and covered the entire domain. Above Ye Futian’s figure, a gigantic ancient Buddha enveloped him.

The massive ancient Buddha’s silhouette rose into the air and turned around. It was as though it was lying down in the sky, facing the divine roc beneath it.

An extremely powerful pressure swept down. The Light of Buddha descended, and the Buddhist Voice circled the ancient Buddha. The Six Syllables of Truth reverberated throughout the space. The ancient Buddha’s silhouette grew larger until it was as large as the divine roc. It blocked out the sun and covered the sky.

Right then, Ye Futian extended his hand and slammed his palm down. The huge Buddha also did the same. The gigantic palm slammed down. In the surrounding space, the various Buddhas sent out giant Buddhist Palms simultaneously.

For a moment, the heavens resonated, and the tens of thousands of Buddhas acted as one.

“All Heaven Buddha’s Seal!” Ye Futian cried out.

The domineering attack technique came crashing down. It contained unparalleled power. It slammed down on the figure of the divine roc down below.

The divine roc also felt the power of this attack. Jet-black divine light flowed over its entire body. It shot up diagonally into the sky as it extended its sharp talons. Its talons were astonishingly powerful as destructive jet-black divine light flowed over them. They could tear apart all existence. A mere glance at them was enough to send shivers down one’s spine.

As the sharp talons extended outwards, countless jet-black bolts of lightning appeared in their surroundings. They shot up into the sky and struck the descending giant Buddhist Palms.

Bang.

There was a loud bang, and the heavens and the earth shook. The surrounding space seemed to crack apart. Fissures appeared on the ground below. At the center of the collision, and even more, the astonishing storm had been swept up.

Neither the gigantic ancient Buddha nor the divine roc gave way. They went head-on against each other, ignoring the surrounding storms. Both Buddha and demonic beast were clashing against each other.

Right then, Ye Futian opened his eyes and glanced at his opponent. He released an Eye Spell in an instant, and his will burst forth. An unparalleled spiritual storm invaded the divine roc’s mind.

The divine roc narrowed its gaze. In its mind, a powerful will emerged. When the frightening spiritual storm invaded its mind, a divine roc phantasm seemed to emerge from ancient times. Along with the Great Emperor, they defended their will.

Ye Futian’s phantasm appeared in the divine roc’s mind. Divine light of the Great Path circled his phantasm. It was as though he had become a Great Emperor. Emperor’s might emanated from his figure. The Spiritual Will was menacing. It seemed to become countless divine swords. Each divine sword was forged from Spiritual Will and continued to invade the will of the divine roc. They attempted to destroy the other party’s will.

At the same time, an icy chill invaded its consciousness. The power of Yin was affecting the will of the divine roc.

In the void, the divine roc formed a spiritual world. Countless divine roc phantasms appeared in the space and traversed the void. They charged out with unparalleled movement techniques, speed, and extremely powerful attacks. In this scene, they appeared as the figure of the divine roc during its youth.

Both man and demonic beast were clashing with their Spiritual Wills.

Countless divine swords appeared. Each divine sword was very sharp. They were actually Tianzhu divine swords. They shot down at the same time towards the divine roc.

At the same time, the divine roc moved with extreme speed and nimble movements as it frantically charged forward. Countless divine roc phantasms actually clashed head-on with the Tianzhu divine swords.

Right then, a voice called out. It contained an intense sorrow. At the same time, the power of Yin continued to invade and affect the will of the divine roc. The endless waves of attacks caused even the will of the divine roc to falter somewhat.

Right then, Ye Futian spoke.

“Senior, you are from the ancient Age of the Gods. You will certainly consider today’s cultivators not to be up to par. However, times are always changing. The cultivators of the new age can also recreate the glory of the Age of the Gods. Why do you still cling on to the past?” asked Ye Futian. “Why don’t you start afresh?”

He could naturally tell that the divine roc was clinging to the past. The cultivators of the outside world could not catch its eye. It was extremely proud and bore a condescending air.

“Your ability is indeed impressive. However, you are still far from being able to control me,” replied the ancient silhouette that appeared in Ye Futian’s mind. Both of them were conversing with their wills.

“Although I am proficient in such techniques, I have no intention of doing so. Senior, you are from an ancient age, so I will naturally respect you. Hence, I will not attempt to control you. However, if Senior insists on standing in my way, I will do whatever is within my power to make you yield,” continued Ye Futian. “Now, the various relics of the gods have reappeared in the world. A world of war has begun. It is fate for me to have come here. Can I have your blessing?”

As he transmitted his thoughts, his attacks did not cease. Terrifying will attacks kept raining down. They seemed to be endless.

In the outside world, the surrounding cultivators saw that both man and demonic beast had come to a standstill. They all revealed strange expressions. What was going on?

Terrifying divine light of the Great Path still flowed over their bodies. They seemed to be clashing but everything had come to a standstill.

“They are having a clash of wills,” someone said.

“That is correct. Such a battle is even more dangerous,” commented another.

The gazes of the crowd were all directed towards them. Someone wanted to come forward and seize the opportunity to strike them. However, Lord Chen, Hua Jieyu and the others dashed forward. They stood between the crowd and the battlefield, forbidding anyone else from interfering.

This caused those cultivators to frown. However, just then, the two colossal figures were sent flying backwards at the same time. The silhouette of the Buddha collapsed and the divine roc was knocked back to its original spot. Ye Futian remained floating in the sky as he looked down below. The aura of the Great Path on his figure had been retracted.

Had a victor been determined? The surrounding people immediately stopped as they looked at the man and the demonic beast!

What was the end result of this exchange?
