Chapter 2803: Heaven Realm in Decline

Two people came to Ye Futian’s mind immediately. One was that extremely enchanted genius talent, the heir of the Heavenly Emperor Realm, Ji Wudao, who seized the ruins of the Old Heaven Court and obtained its inheritance. This man was a bewitching existence.

In addition, there was another person—the unparalleled existence that Supreme Swordlord—said to be the daughter of the emperor, incomparable from past to present. The world would lose much color without her. She, who was the daughter of the Heavenly Emperor, was also the cultivator who commanded the Heaven Realm in later eras.

Was she still around?

There were Seven Realms today, but only six emperors were known. Among them, Heaven Realm’s presence was almost unknown. That legendary unparalleled figure seemed to be a forbidden existence with hardly anyone ever mentioning her.

Was Ji Wudao a disciple of hers?

More importantly, Ye Futian had a feeling that this person must have occupied a pivotal position in the past and may have been involved in many secrets.

Very possibly, she was the key to many things.

“The Path of the Emperors has materialized. Naturally, I have to go and take a look,” Ye Futian said. In the times after the collapse of the Heavenly Path, there was no Path of the Emperor to be found. In order to become a Great Emperor, in addition to having unparalleled talent, one also needed some extraordinary chance. However, Ye Futian still had no idea what kind of opportunity would be.

But now, the Path of the Emperor’s sudden appearance may be part of the puzzle.

He was not the only one in Ye Imperial Palace, as there were many other cultivators. For example, the West Emperor who had returned, the cultivators from West Imperial Palace, the cultivators from Lost Clan, as well as the many people around him, all of them would be going through that step in the future. They all wanted to go see, and Ye Futian would not miss it either.

In fact, now that he had transformed, it was easy for the others to fear him, so he should not be out and about. However, there was an agreement between the six emperors, and under the circumstances, the cultivators from the six realms may be present, which meant that all six emperors may also be there for the occasion. As such, his safety was ensured.

Under the Great Emperor, many desired to kill him, including those returning emperors of the Ancient God Clans. However, with his current cultivation and strength, very few below the grade of the Great Emperor could actually manage to hurt him.

Ye Futian and Hua Jieyu got up and walked outside with the Little Condor following closely behind. They came to the front of the great hall, and everyone was waiting for them there already. When they saw Ye Futian, everyone bowed and saluted, calling out, “Palace Lord.”

They found that Ye Futian’s temperament had changed again. Currently, Ye Futian already possessed a trace of temperament that could only belong to the Great Emperors. This temperament was hard to quantify or describe, but as soon as he stood before them, he seemed to be the only one in this world.

They knew then that Ye Futian had already embarked on his Path of the Emperors.

Even those well-acquainted with Ye Futian, such as Lord Chen, had submitted to Ye Futian once upon a time because they valued Ye Futian’s potential and his position as the heir of Ziwei the Great. They may be polite to each other, but their respect was not coming from the heart.

But it was different now. Everyone in Ye Imperial Palace had changed their attitude towards Ye Futian. This change was not intentional but an invisible progression.

All of it was because Ye Futian’s strength had reached another level, and in the future, he was destined to become a Great Emperor himself.

“Since the Path of the Emperors has appeared, people who had cultivated to the peak of Renhuang and above, prepare to leave if you want to come, and you can go with me,” Ye Futian said to everyone. In truth, there was no other preparation that was needed. In other words, they had been ready and could leave at any time.

When Ye Futian saw everyone was looking in his direction, he understood what they were thinking. He stepped forward and stood in front of the main hall, looking at Ye Imperial Palace down below. He said loudly, “While I am out, I will seal off Ye Imperial Palace after I leave. Everyone will have to work a little harder during this time and focus on cultivating inside Ye Imperial Palace.”

“Palace Lord, we understand.”

“Palace Lord, go in peace. We will be fine.” Voices spoke up one after another, responding to reassure Ye Futian.

Ye Futian wanted to seal off Ye Imperial Palace for its safety, and they understood this very well.

“Very well.” Ye Futian’s mind turned slightly. Immediately, divine power spread out from him, extending towards Ye Imperial Palace. In just a moment, his rules divine power had enveloped the entire Ye Imperial Palace, leaving just an opening.

“Let’s go.” Ye Futian took a group of cultivators and left. Once they walked out of Ye Imperial Palace, Ye Futian sealed the opening behind him, and suddenly, the vast Ye Imperial Palace was like a cocoon, shrouded by the divine light and formed a world of its own. It was so indestructible that even the likes of Haotian the Great would be hard-pressed to get through it.

…

Compared with the other six realms, the Heavenly Emperor Realm did not seem to have a strong presence. However, after the great changes in the world, the Heaven Realm had also opened up a space passage, which could be used directly to commute from the Heavenly Emperor Realm to the Original Realm. Cultivators of the Heavenly Emperor Realm would also follow the space passage to come here to cultivate.

Of course, compared to the land of the six realms, the Heavenly Emperor Realm did not open up many passages. Nonetheless, a few had been uncovered.

Ye Futian and the others followed a space passageway and came to the Heaven Realm from the Original Realm.

They were stunned when they arrived in the Heaven Realm. When they looked up into the sky, Ye Futian was quite surprised to find that above them, there was nothing but a chaotic space.

There was no firmament above the Heaven Realm.

What happened in the Heaven Realm back then?

They moved in one direction with incredible speed, traveling in the air. There was no firmament above the Heaven Realm, but there were landmasses on the ground. These continents were full of ancient atmosphere, and many buildings on the continents were buildings from ancient times.

They encountered many other continents of ruins that had barely any traces of inhabitants as they moved along.

“What happened to the Heaven Realm before?” Ye Futian whispered. Just looking at everything in front of him, he could feel that many years ago, the Heaven Realm must have experienced a terrifying battle for this to occur.

As far as he knew, the Heaven Realm was once extremely prosperous. In the era of the Heavenly Emperor, the Heaven Realm was once a supreme realm, surpassing all other realms.

But for what reason had it become so?

“Many cultivators in the Heaven Realm have migrated elsewhere. It is said that they have gone to other realms. For example, cultivators in today’s Heaven Realm were said to be the least among the Seven Realms,” Supreme Swordlord explained. They had seen a few well-to-do continents on their way and saw many cultivators there. However, compared to the prosperity of the mainland in the Divine Prefecture, there was still quite a gap.

Even in the Devil World and the Dark World, the number of cultivators was far greater than the Heaven Realm.

However, they didn’t pay much attention to this. Their purpose this time was not to observe the Heaven Realm but to go where the Path of the Emperors had manifested, which was also the ruins of the former Heavenly Palace.

After they had inquired about the location, they focused on getting to their destination. On the way, they met many other cultivators who were going in the same direction. Many of them were cultivators from the Heavenly Emperor Realm, but many came from the Ruins Continent from all parts of the world.

The unveiling of the Path of the Emperors was a shocking news to the entire Seven Realms. The cultivators from the Seven Realms who were on the Ruins Continent rushed over after hearing the news!
